THE MINT.

Its Operations During the Past Year.
The Director of the Philadelphia Mint has
issued his annual rep TT, ending June 30,
1868. The deposltI OF bullion at the MINT AMI
branches during he fiscal year were as lollo vs.;
Gold, $25, 1894 S2: silver, Sl,693 423'8S,
Total deposits, $27 l66 3l8 TO-. Deducung from
this total the deposits OF bullion or bars made
at one branch of the Mint and deposited at
another for coinage, the amount will Oe S2i, 59l,
325'S4. Tne coinage for the same period was
as folio s:-Gold coin pieces, 976,539; value
Sl8 ia 425; impaired and tine gold bdIs, Sc 026,.
Sl0'66; silver con pieces 1921 067; value
ST, 1856, 750; silver bars, S456, 23i'48; nickel
copper and bronze coinage pieces, 45,43S, 900;
value, 81, 1885. Total number OF pieces
struck. As 735,S4O. Total value OF coinage,
S27. .447, ,6O6'54, The distribution OF the
bullion received at the Mint and branches was
as iolows:-At Philadelphia, gold deposited,
$4, ,O43, ,O4sO3; gold coined, S3,s64,425; tine gold
bars, $9S 848 03; silver deposits aud purchases,
SSi2 635.72: silver coined, S3l4, 75O; silver bars
So 1894; nickel-cOpper and bronZe coinage,
value-Sl, as, 1856, Total deposlts OF goli AM an
silver, 81 3S5, ,684 35. Total coinage, $5,992, $50.
1t is proper 10 remark that coinage operations
were suspended at the Mint during the first
three months of the fiscal year, for the pur-
pose OF making extensive repairs OF the machl,
merry, furnaces, and fixtures, which had
become absolutely necessary. The coin
age, therefore, OF nickel, copper, and
bronze represents, in point OF fact,
only nine months operations The Direc-
tor says that experience proves that coinage
can be executed at the principal Mint at less
expense than any other point IN the country
And as the means of safely transporting CON
and bullion from and 10 every part OF the Union
have greatly multiplied within the past quarter
century, there appears to be no necessity for
going TO the expense OF reVlvlng the three
Branch Mints In the Southern States, and there
fore they might as well be disposed OF. new
Branch MINT edidce is about to be erected at
Fan Francisco on scale commensurate with
the demand OF the important bullion interests OF
the Pacific states. Wnen this institution shall
have been completed. it will, with the Mint at
Philadelphia, be sufficient Tor the prompt exc
eution OF coinage OF our country, and no other
Mints for coinage will therefore be necessary.
