From Wi I'hia H. R. GuuU.
Silver bt Small Change.
The act of Congress of January 14
1875, to provide for the resumption of
specie payment authorizes and requires
the Secretary of the Treasury of the
United Slates, as rapidly a is practice
lie to causo to be coined at the Mints
of tle United States silver coins ol the
denominations of ten, twenty five and
City cents, aud to issue them in rcdemp
tion of an equal number and amount of
fractional currency of similar denomin.i
tions. Dr. Liodermai, director of the
Mint Bureau, is engaged in pcrlcotiog
measures for the coinage of pieces to en
able the Secretary to carry out the law
Tho total amount of fractional currency
shown by the books of the Treasury Do
pattmcntat Washington to be now in
circulation, is $40,773,575, and it is cs
limutcd that of (his amount 12,000,000
fn ten cent notes, $1,500,000 in fifteen
cent notes 82,000,000 ia five ccuts
notes, $10,000,000 in twentv five cent
notes and $15,000,000 in fifty cent
notes. Ilinco it will require 120,000,'
000 dimes to retire the fractional cur
rcacy notes of that denomination, and
with the p.nseDt operations of the Mints
two years will be required to coiu them
alone unless the oVinae of all other
pieces be suspended and the whole
force be assigned to worlc upon them
Forty millions of quarters will be re
q'lirtd to replace twenty-five cent notes
and 30.000.000 of half dollars to re
place the fifty cent notes. It is be
lieved however that at least 55,000,000
of the fractional currcucy has loug sioce
been worn out while in circulation aud
will never be presented for redemption
At the Philanclphia Mint the priucipal
work is on small silver coins; but at the
San Francisco and Carsou City Miuts
gold coinage is forwarded as rapidly as
possible on account of the great demand
lor coin ou the Pacific coast.
