MINTING.
Th following article from the New York Tribune
U worthy of careful perusal by those who take any
Interoit in the mining of the precious metal or In
the minting eatabllshmenu of the country. Those
wio are most familiar with the subject are free to
confess their inability to perceive any neoesslty for
ft change In the lawi relating to the "Mints, Assay
Offices, and Coinage of the United States."
We have refrained from commenting upon the
bill having this object In view, and which is now
. before the Finance Committee of the Senate, for
various reasons, principal among which Is the con
viction that there Is no probability of Its passage. It
Is to be hoped that the San Francisco reflnlng
monopoly referred to by the Tribune Is the only Job
covered by the provisions of the bill.
Senators and Representatives should examine
Closely and act with great deliberation upon so Im
portant and delicate a subject We may have occa
sion to refer to It again, should any serious effort be
made towards making it a law of the land.
In the Legislative Appropriation bill, on the 13th
Instant, the proposition to allow the reflnlng of
bullion by private persons, debated so fiercely by
the Pacific coast Senators, was defeated by a largo
majority. In 1868 Congress passed the following
law: "That the Mint of the United 8tates, and
branches, Bhall continue to retine gold and silver
bullion, and no contract to exchange crude or nn
parted bullion for refined bars shall be made until
authorized by law." The attempt to ex
clude reflnlng from the San Francisco and
other Mints has proved a failure. The private per
sons interested in monopolizing this business still
hope to accomplish their ends, through the bill now
before the Senate Finance Committee, "revising
the laws relative to the Mints, Assay Offices, and
Coinage of the United States." This measure com
prises 63 sections, some of which greatly modify
not nly the business of minting as now con
ducted, but also the administrative department
of the Mint eHtabllshments. We learn that the
United States Assay Olllce in this o'tT possesses ap
pliances for renting gold and silver bullion to any
extent demanded by trade, and that by the use of
two valuable improvements, Introduced by the pre
sent mcltcr and reUner, which combine the sul
phuric and nitric acid processes, the operations are
performed satiHfactorlly to depositors and economi
cally to the Government.
Section 47 of the bill proposes, under certain terms
and conditions, that "unparted bullion may be ex
changed at anv of the respective coinage mints for
fine bars." This Is anxiously desired by Interested
persons in San Francisco, who have labored for
years to secure the necessary legislation. We re
commend that the Assay Office mode of reflnlng
should be Introduced into the Mint at San Francisco,
and that the Government continue to enforce the law
requiring refining to be done by its own officers, as a
proper protection to miners and other owners of bul
lion on the Pacific coast, who protest against making
this business conducive to the establishment of a
monopoly. We find also, from section 29, that,
with some exceptions, the coinage charge (amount
ing last year to tl2S,000) is to be discontinued. This
would, of course, increase the amount of bullion
seeking the refinery ; but In what wav, we may in
quire, would it benefit the public ? Gold, whether
coined or uncoined, will obey the Inexorable law of
trade, and Its exportation cannot be prevented by
merely changing its form. We can see no reason
why the coinage of gold by the Government should
not be made to contribute its proper share towards
meeting the onerous burdens which the debt of the
country imposes upon us.
It la proposed also In the bill to abolish the omoe
of Treasurer and transfer his duties to the Superin
tendent. This we regard as objectionable. The sys
tem of checks which the present law secures should
le continued, and the only change needed in New
York is to relieve the Assistant Treasurer of the
United States from acting ex officio as Treasurer,
by the appointment of a separate Treasurer for
the Assay office. The substitution of copper-nickel
for bronze coins we consider unwise, because en
tailing a heavy expenditure upon the Mint for their
manufacture. The intimation In the report accom
panying the bill that the measure meets the appro
val of all the offiicers of the Mint, Assay Office, etc,
we have reason to know is groundless. The gene
ral feeling of these gentlemen is decidedly adverse
to the bill, asjl was so stated to the Department.
nUSICAli AND PKAMLAT1C.
The CUT Anuitntiu,
At thb Walnut the drama of Not Qu'Uy
a ill be performed for the last time during: the
present week.
On Monday next Mr. Joseph Jefferson will
commence an engagement, and will appear as

will conclude the regular season. There will be
a brief summer season, however, during; which
the company from WallackVlheatre will appear
in the drama of The Lancers, now being played
with such Buccess in New York. This piece will
be produced with all the original scenery, and
as the company is reputed to be a very fine one,
the performance will undoubtedly attract much
attention.
At the Akch the comedy of Paul Pry and
thedrama of The Irish Emigrant are announced
for this evening.
On Wednesday Mr. John T. Donnelly will
have a benefit, when a great bill of attractions
will be offered. Mr. Donnelly is one of the
most deservedly popular men connected with
the theatrical profession. As a business mana
ger and agent be is brought in coBtact with all
sorts of people, and he has succeeded in gaining
the warm regards of ail who have any
dealings with him. The entertainment on
Wednesday evening will be a fine affair of itself,
and it will offer Mr. Donnelly's numerous
friends an opportunity to give him a substantial
token of their esteem. We hope, therefore,
that a crowded house will be in attendance, and
the receipts be as great as are the deserts of the
beneficiary.
At thb Ciiesnut a variety, of entertaining
features will be presented tuis evening.
At thx Eleventh Street Opera House
the last week of the season, is announced. A

A Dialogue re Wall Street. It is a vulgar error to
suppose that the habitue of Wall street converse about
nothing but stocks and gold. Sometimes they talk about
tbeir health ; and they all seem to have one trouble

'Bow do you think I'm looking?" said a well-known
"Bull" to a friend in the Long Reom, a few days after the
late smash-up : Do I look panic struck?"
"Kit, by Jove!" was the reply ; "you look in trim to fight
for a man's life. Nover saw you looking better.'
"Let mi tell you a secret, my boy," returned the great
OMrator ; 'I drink no wine, no brandy, no bar room stimu
lant of any kind; but I just keep my stamina np with an
occasional dose of Plantation Bitters; and if you'll do
me the favor to try it for that bile oa the stomach you're
always complaining of, I'll furnish the margin for your
