The Mint Dealir ~ in Precious VI ctals

Some interesting figures are given in
the annual report of Mr.. Buchard. di-
rector Of the United States mint The
coinage during the year amounted TO
SG-. 3l2 .Gq2 80. and consisted of >. .7jG. i2l
pieces of gold. Of the value of $40. .g~6.-
al2 and y. -. $50 pieces of silver. The
production of the precious metals in the
United States in 1879 w.s mJch less
than that of the preceding wear. II las
resulted from the diminished yicid Of
the mines of the ComstoCk Lode. Al
though the production of Nevada will
be large and continuous fuF many year,.
II docs not appear probable that tho
mines of that State will make such
enormous contributions 20 the mineral
wealth Of the country as they have in
previous years. This decrease has been
in part cOmprnsat d by the results Of
the more thorough exploration Of the
mining regions OF the Rocky mountains.
especially in central and southern Col
orado. The production of that State
was ut least SC. coo. COO greater in the
last than i'm the preceding wear. and will
probably furnish an undiminishcd. If
not increasing. amount of silver in the
future. After careful inquiry and con-
sidcration of the yield of different To-
calitics and mines in the United States.
the director estimates the total produc-
tion Of tlie precious metals in the coun-
try for the fiscal wear 1879 at SO, ,7l2,-
coo. which S3s, ,oOo, 600 was gold and
$50. 0.sl2. 600 silver.
Nearly all of the gold and large por-
tion of the silver produced in the United
States during the last year was coined
at the mints or used in domestic manu-
facturcs. arts and ornamentation. The
surplus was exported to non producing
countries. From all information it is
safely assumed that the annual con-
sumption in the United States of pre-
cious metals in all forms for manufactur-
ing purposes now averages $1,000, 600 Of
gold and ~. 900. 600 of silver. The tota
amount of gold coin in the country, June
30 last Is estimated Mt ;. Sc. i90, COS, and
of silver. SIl2, $50 gs5. the gain in the
past six years being .Slji .iyO.69s gold.
and Sl07 ,0JO, ,9s5 silver. Since the close
oi the last fiscal year. and up to Nov |,
the imports Of coin and bullion and the
dom site coinage have increased these
amounts TO 1905. 7j0, ig7 gold and Sl2l,-
ij6. 355 silver. a total of Si27, ,206. $50, or
about 80 per capita Of coin. H. Is esti-
mated should the ilow of gold continue
from foreign countries. the metallic cir
culation of the country Mt the end OF the
present fiscal year will have swollen to
over $500. .OO0. 900. The report discusses
at great length the monetary statistics
Of fore ign countries, and states that the
worlds production of gold has declined
In the past few years from Sl3i 900, 600
In 1859 to $50. 600, 900 in 1879.
