A correspondent of the Washington Globe publish es an extract of a letter from Mr. Patterson, the di rector of the mint at Philadelphia, by which it sp. pears we are shortly to have a shower of the Milan. tian currency. Mr. P. says :—I beg, therefore, to state that the difficulty referred to in the letter to Mr. Brady was altogether a temporary one, and had no reference to the general ability of the mint to furnish coin in any pieces and in any amount reii qeired. You have been already informed, that gold coins require to be separately weighed, or adjusted, before they are atamped. To effect this object, however, we require delicaten i c eles which, as they can only be maoufactured by the most 'MINI Work men, are procured with same difficulty. In cootie quence of the immense coinage now required of us, combined with a sudden and unprecedented demand for the smaller gold coins, the number of adjusting scales at our disposal has proved to be Insufficient. We have three different inanuf:cturert -engaged to !apply the deficienen'and we shall receive from them glom four to five new scales per week. As_ . fast as they are received, new adjusters are em ployed. The average numberof pieces which may be adjusted le a day, is about six hundred ; so that for each new scale received we are reinferced; fin. gold coinage, to the amount of sls,ooo ‘ per mouth ` in gold dollars, 039,000 per month in 'quarter eagles,' and in proportion for the largixplenes. Our prevent force enables us, in addition to the large piecee, to adjust and coin about 'half a million per month in in quarter eagles and gold dollars. 'The expected increase in the supply of scales will add a Weekly increase to that amount, of some $25,006 In the same coin, to continue in arithmetical progression till demand ceases. Let me egain.assure you that the qbestion as to our coining ability in gold is simply one of scales, and heeds to provide fortheir adjustment. Ite I can see no reason to doubt that these can be procured to any extent required. I have a perfect assurance that the mint will bo found equal to all the demanda for coinage which may be made upon it. -I have observed in the newspaper press some ani. madversione upon the mint for its neglect to =Nay the pablic demand for small silver coine, and even for the copper coins: I take • this occasion, therefore, to mention that we have coined all the silver re. gaited oftie, , in the pieces demanded, and will have a wapitis on'haed to secure prompt payment.for fu. titre deposit& As to the copper coins, we have 'a large supply in our vaults, which we would be very :glad to dispoee of.

Every one, at all con versant with the affairs of the State Works, cannot fail to see that a more inappropriate time than, the month of January,,for making appointments, could not been selected. It is the very season when re. pairs, necessary to a ,vigorous spring trade, should be made :•, bat which—from the fact that those of cora who should attend to the repairs in time, re fuse to do so, because their continuance in office is a matter of uneertainty—are delayed until,Febrna. ry, and in many eases, entrusted to new and inex: perieneed men. The reaultef this has been Me& cient repair', andollentimes delay in the opening of the canals—extremely prejudicial to the revenue of the State. The month ofAugust is the proper time.

The wit of Ito% Wind and Beatrice, the ambition of Lady Macs teeth, the conjugal faith of Imogene, the wicked+ ness of Goneril and:Regan, the constancy of ens, the reticence of Cordelia, the intellect, of Portia, the wiles tif• Cleopatra, the innocence of Miranda, the charm of Viola, the gentleness of Desdemona, the sanctity and moral purity of leas bells, the anguish 'of Constance, the maternity of - Volurnnia, the shrewishness of Katherine, the at.. fection of Celia, the flippancy of Lucretia, the passionate love of Juliet, the sprightliness of Ne. rises, the insanity of Ophelia, are all as markedly contrasted as day and ;night; . but they are all - in themselves, and in their action and circumstances, true to the spirit of. tame:Ulna& Th. eimriatil of Ldfe. There aro a thousand things in this world to afflict and sadden-"but 'oh 1 how many that are beautiful and good.,' The world teems with beau ty—with objects which gladden the eye and warm the heart. We might be happy .if we would.— There are ills that' we cannot escape—the ap proach of disease - 'and ` .death, of misfortune, the metering of earthly ties, and the canker worm of grief—but a vast majority of the evils that bet set us might,be , avoided. The curse of lntemper• once, interwoven as it is with all the ligaments of society, is one which never strikes but to destroy. There is not one bright page upon the record at its progrese—nothiog to shield it from the bearti. est execration of the human race. It should not eiist—it must not. Do away with all this—let were come to an end, and let friendship, charity, love, purity and kindneis mark the intercourse be tween man and matt. - .We are too selfish, as lithe world was made tor' us alone. How much hap. pier would we be wore we to labor more earnest. ly to promote each : other's good. God has blessed us with a home which is not dark:. There is sun shine every where—in the sky, upon the earth— ' there would be in most heatts,if we would , look around us. The storms die away, and a bright sun shines out. Spnanier drops her tinted curtain upon the earth, which is yery beautiful, even wben Autumn timeline het;changing breath upon it.— God' eigni in heaven.
