SOME FACTS FROM OUR HINTS.

The report OF the Director OF the Mint
presents some facts of special interest
now that the discussion of the silver
scheme is demandingso much attention.
fiscal year the several United States
MINIS received and operated upon nearly
a hundred million dollars of gold and
silver bullion. The result consisted of
S44, 078, 1877 in gold coin; s., 462, 900;
in trade dollars; $19, 387, G45 in fractional
silver coin, and S63, 165 in minor coinage
There was also prepared ST, 163, 491 IN
gold bars and SO, 567, 1918 il silver bars.
The total income from all our minis
within tie last twenty-eight years has
been $25, III, 25I, and the expenditures
$24, 754, $50. Il that time the amount
Of bullion ha ed at the three coinage.
mintssums up So, 015. 321, 1856. Theaetual
wastage in operating upon that vast
amount OF precious metal WIS only
S762, 453; although the law permits
rate OF wastage which would have made
it nearly five million dollars. This
shows the care and faithfulness with
which the business of the minis is con-
Quoted. A ton of coinage can be done
at the San Francisco mint for 81, 3OS;
at Carson for 50, 040, and at Philadel-
phia for 81, O9G. The difference in price
at the three places varies on account of
the rate of wages paid.
Within the last twenty-five months
the exports of silver from San Francisco
and London to the Eastern nations
amounted to $143, 100000. During the
same period we have used $27, 300, 900 of
silver for fractional currency coinage
making draft on silver from these
sources of $171, 100000. And yet the
average price of the metal is found to be
fifty-four pence against sixty pence in
1872. In this connection the Director
remarks that t'if silver had deprecated,
this demand, which exceeded the entire
gold coinage of the world for the same
period, would have carried the price to
or above the point at which it ruled be-
fore the German money system was
changed" The restoration of the old
silver dollar with unlimited legal tender
would put silver at nine per cent. above
the market rate, as shown by the figures
of the Director, instead of eight per
cent, as has been generally stated; that
is ninety-one cents in silver would pass
for a dollar. Should the Bland bill be-
come a law, one ounce of pure gold
would purchase in this country only To-
9S ounces of pure silver. OF course,
gold would go where it could make the
best purchace, and silver would thus
drive out gold, and become the actual
money standard of the United States.
To avoid this, the Director suggests that
the legal-tender Of the silver dollar
should be limited to an amount suffi-
cient to prevent it from expelling gold
from the country, and that it should be
used only in exchange for our notes and
gold coin. With this restriction, he
thinks, the amount of silver coinage
might safely be left to regulate itself by
the demand.-StGte Journal.

A SILVER House. Washington Spec
ial: Late in the fall of '64, the 23d
Regiment OF Ohio Volunteers, Col. r.
B. Hayes commanding, went into win
ter quarters near Kanawha Falls, West
Virginia. The soldiers made for them
selves comfortable huts, and for regi-
mental headquarters they built a double
log cabin in the most approved style of
army architecture. When this structure
was ready for occupancy, Mrs. Hayes
joined her husband in camp, and the
two made the cabin their home. Over
these snug but comfortable quarters,
the ColonePs wife presided. Some of
the officers of the regiment have lately
caused to be made miniature fac simile
in silver of the cabin and its Immediate
surroundings. The base of the piece,
which is about the size of mans hand,
is inscribed, ''To the Mother of the regi-
ment." The whole is of delicate work.
manship, and presents striking picture
of a spot which is remembered as the
scene of many pleasant events. 1t was
sent to TIrs. Hayes on Monday evening,
when the silver wedding of the Presi-
dent and his wife was celebrated at the
White House. This was the only pres
ent accepted on that occasion.

Sch enck's Rulrnonic Syrup, Sea Weed
Tonic, AND MANDRAKE ILLS.-ThOSe desery-
edly celebrated and popular medicines have
effected q revolution in the healing art, and
proved the fallacy Of several maXiumS which
have for many years DISTRACTED the progress of
medical science. The false SuppOSitiOn that
consumption is incurable'' deferred physi-
clans from attempting to find remedies for that
disease, and patients afflicted with if reconcled
themselves to death without making an effort
to escape from doom which they supposed to
be unavoidable. 1t is now proved, however,
that consumption can be cured and that it has
been cured in a very great number of cases,
some of them apparently desperate ones, by
Schenclk's Pulmonic Syrup alone !; and in other
cases by the same medicine in connection with
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills
one or both, according to the requirements of
the case.
DR.. Schencil himself who enjoyed uninter-
rupted good health for more than forty years,
was supposed at one time to be at the very gate
of death, his phys cianS having pronounced his
case hopeless, and abandoned him to his fate.
He was cured by the aforesaid medicines. and,
since his recovery, many thousands similarly
affected have used DR.. Schenck's preparations
with the same remarkable success.
Full directions accompany each, making it
not absolutely necessary to personally see DIR.
Schenck unless patients wish their lungs eX-
amined, and for this purpose he is profession
ally at his principal office, Corner Sixth and
Arch Sts., Philadelphia, every Monday, where

WILL NOT BE BULLDOZED.

Cincinnati Gazette Special A state
ment is made here by The Chronicle to-
day that limitations were thrown out by
certain prominent Republican leaders in
the Senate before recess that an attempt
would be made TO force the President
either to change his policy or to drive
him over to the Democratic party. 4
notice to that effect was served upon
him and certain members Of his Cabinet.
and that they would be allowed reason
able time in which to determine as TO
the propriety Of placing themselves IN
accord with not only the leaders, but the
great mass of the Republican party. 1t
was also intimated that certain members
Of his Cabinet were distasteful TO said
leaders, as thew weere not regarded as
representative men In the,,States from
which they were appointed, and their
political anteoedents were, to say the
least, suspicious. Therefore it would be
necessary, il order.ssto produce entire
harmony, to reorganize his Cabinet by
eliminating useless members. The man
ner Of accomplishing this proposed
change was not conveyed to the Presi-
dent, but he was allowed a reasonable
time to consider the subject. The Presi.
dent at that time had made up his mind
to visit New York, having accepted an
invitation to attend reception at the
Union League, and by mingling with
the solid and substantial men of New
Y ork he would be able to inform himself
as to the truth of the statements which
had been made to him that the Repub-
hcan party of New York was not only
inimical, but hostile to his administra-
ton, and were DESTROYS that Eyarts
should surrender his portfolio and retire
from the Cabinet. During his stay in
that city, and mingling as he did with
all classes of people, he was somewhat
surprised that not one individual could
be found who even questioned the policy
he was pursuing, but on the contrary,
one and all, Democrats and Republicans,
urged him to continue in his enlighten-
ed course, and not to falter. Since his
return from New York, he is more con-
WINGED than ever that he is right, and in
tends to pursue his course unfalteringly,
andwill not be driven or coerced out of the
Republican party, or into any other
party, as threatened. The whole effort
of certain Republican leaders in the Sen
ate is well understood, and the determin-
alton of the President and members of
his administration is not to permit them
selves to be drawn into the struggle of
thesei menifor their own political aggrau-
dizement
