JAY COOKR’S RESUMPTION. ‘There is said to be every possible evidence of a speedy resumption of business by the house of Jay Cooke & A reporter of the HERALD called at the office of the firm yesterday and learned the Jollowing facts from the clerk in charge :— “The agreements are being rapidly signed by our creditors,” said the clerk, “and are coming in with gratifying promptitude. We have every rea- ~gon to be encouraged. We have merely asked the forbearance of our creditors, just as the Spragues have, and we shall avert bankruptcy with perfect ‘certainty. The house will be able to resume within @ few weeks, it 1s very probable; at any rate just 0 soon as the confidence of the great majority of “our creditors is assured to us.” H. B. CLAFLIN & CO. A Member of the Firm Denies That the House Is in Want of Any Assistance— Also Declares That the Boston Com. mittee Have Succeeded. Owing to the reports which have been circulated regarding the solvency .of the house of H. B. ‘Claflin & Co., a reporter of the HERALD called yes- terday and made several attempts to have an in- terview with the head of the firm. The senior Mr. Claflin, however, was absent on each occasion, but when the last call was made young Mr. Claflin had a conversation with the reporter as follows:— REPORTER—I called as a representative o1 the ‘HERALD to ask if the committee who went to Bos- tom some days ago to seek assistance for your house in this financial pressure have returned? Mr, CLAPLIN—Tley have returned. ReroRTER—Have they made any report, and, if a what is it? I shouid like to have it for publica- on. Mr. CLAFLIN—There has not been any official report made of their visit. It was not any regular committee; it was a few friendly gentlemen who went to the Boston banks. Rerorter—Did they succeed in their object for ‘which they visited Boston? Mr. CLAFLIN—They did. The Boston banks Offered assistance, as also have the New York Danka; but the house does not want any assist- ance, having firmly decided to go on with our busi- ness a8 we have done heretolore. We theretore shall not ask for the assistance which was offered to the committee in Boston, and matters will re- main on their old footing. Mr. Ciafin did not desire to make public the mames of the committee, and the interview was then terminated. ; New York, Nov. 3, 1873, fo THE Eprror of THE HERALD:— The following is furnished by a member of the Orm of H. B. Olaflin & C The statement of the affairs of H. B. Claflin & Co., a8 submitted to a meeting of the friends of the rm, which included their largest creditors, held this afternoon, was as follow: Good assets of all kinds........... Total indebtedness, domestic and foreign. Surplus... aoeee oe $6,924,000 It was 4 that no assistance should be asked of the associated banks or Clearing House, and their friends and creditors present at the meeting unanimously tendered to H. B. Claflin & Co. an ex- tension averaging four and a half months, matur- ing in monthly payments, which was promptly ac- cepted. The business of the firm will proceed as usual. In this statement is not included the per- sonal assets of any memberofthe frm. It merely embraces the amounts employed in their business, THE METHODIST MINISTERS. Devotional Meeting—Exposure of a Cler- feal Humbug—Probable Reception to Joseph Arch—How to Promote Christi- anity and Methodism. Yesterday, being the first Monday in the month, was devoted by the preachers to devotional exer- cises, in which Rev. Dr. Crooke and Rey. J. Baas, of Beliast, Ireland, Pastor Hedstrom, Revs. John Parker and 8, H. Bray, Drs, B. F. Adams and | L. R. Dunn and Messrs. Buckley, Barker, Frazer and others participated. Pastor Hedstrom told about the progress of religion among the Scandi- navians here and elsewhere; Mr. Parker spoke about the success of th® Evangelical Alliance Meetings held in his church, in Seventh street, tast week, and announced a series of similar meet- ings during the present week. Mr. Bray gave an interesting account of a revival in the South Fifth street Methodist Episcopal church, Willlamsburg. Dr. Adams also gave an duteresting sketch of a revival work in Fleet street church, Brooklyn. Messrs, Barker and Frazee reported successes m their respective charges and Kev. Mr. Morehouse, Superintendent of City Missions, stated that revivals were in pro- gressin all the stations under his charge, that they had calculated on being abie to report 2,000 converts before the meeting of Conference in 1874, and that they had had so far about 200, DEATH OF A MINISTER. A sketch of the closing moments of Rev. Mr. Carleton, 2 member of the New York Conference, who died in Paterson last week, was given by Dr. L. R. Dunn, who with Dr. Bottome was appointed acommitice to prepare a suitavie minute on the deceased. Rev. J. M. Buckley, of Summerfiela church, Brooklyn, who seems to have a peculiar calling to expose pious humbugs, by whom on account of his benevolent reputation and peculiarly tender and contiding et bene he is overrun, gave a comical account of his latest success in this line, A few days ago a sanctimonious individual attired in an orthodox clerical suit, venerable by reason of his white fowimg beard, of very gentlemanly bearing, called on Mr. Buckley and in very plaintive tones (Which were admirably imitated by the nar- rator) declared that he was the Rev. John Cowan, pastor jor Rain f years of an Independent church 1m London, that his health had been poor for some ime past and he had come to America to recuper- ate the physical man. He was a passenger on the {l-fated steamer City of Washington; had brought £800 with him, which he nad given to the captain of that vessel for safe-keeping, and had taken his ‘receipt therefor, which receipt he had deposited “with the British Consul here. He expected money from England about the middle of November, but «meantime he wanted a little help to pay his board. Mr. pear Suggested that as there were some ih Independent delegates to the Ev: ical Alliance still {n the city, they, of course, would know the Rev. John Cowan, and would most assuredly help A CLERICAL BROTHER IN DISTRESS. Oh, no, he could not go to them, The denomina- sion was bin gf drifting toward Unitarianism, and a8 he wasa thorough Trinitarian be had di carded the denomination forever, and, conse- sequently, had forfeited the sym of the “Evangelicals.” Mr, Buckley made appoint. ment to meet the Rev, wan at the British Vonsulate next day, but the clerical impostor failed so put in @ appearancé, and inquiries at the proper quarters revealed the facts that such a person had not come by the City of Washington, and was wholly unknown the Consulate, Mr. Buckley, therefore, cautioned his brethren against this clerical humbug. ‘ Father Landon, a superannuated spent fifty-five years in the itinerant ay | paym Timer nto {avitation, addressed the meeting and dismissed te with the benediction, after which a few brethren in- jormally gathered together to make ngemen' a posaibie, for Joseph arch to addreye the Moto: fist ministers before his return to land, Mr. Arch is a local preacher in the Primitive Metho- fist ranks in England, He will probably address the meeting next Monday morning, if he shall be wt in the city, The discussion on the promotion f Methodism and Christianity in New York and Monday Brooklyn was continued alaa for next worning.

Ate erees cases $27,517,030 61 This being the first annual report of the Director of the Mint under the Coinage act, he gives a short outline of e ry of the mint and coinage, and reiers brietly to the money of account and to Various questions connec! with lic money, in the course of which he say: Having concluded, alter the examimation of the sub) that the substitution pf raised letvers in place of present receded edge Wibuid. prevent, in a great me he splitting, filling and filing of the coins for trau purposes, I referred the subject of the preparation of the Recessury machinery for that purpove to the officers of the Phiixdelpiia int ‘also to pprvate engraver, and who are now engaged upon the work. In connection with this question [ called for a ‘report the results of some experiments which were made at Philadelphia in the year 1860, and which had tor their object the better protection of the gold coins by making them thinner and shghtly concave on both sides. Anelaborate report upon the subject trom the Assayer at Philadelphia has been received. The question will be further considered and the necessary experiments made to determine what measures will be most likely to afford complete protection, If possible, aguinst fraudulent reduction of the weight of the coins. Gold coin being the standard or measure of values, thelr protection trom natural abasement, and especially against fraudulent diminution, is a matter of the utmost imporiance. sufficient time should, therefore, be taken 0 carefully examine the subject, and no altera- tions should ‘be. made without due consideration, and the advantages of which are not clearly determined. Under the iourteenth section of the Coinage act and the Provisions of & previous act, abgnt $2 000,000 of gold coms were melted, of which $14u2l,000 were received during the fiscal year. The recoinage of the balance has since been going on, It is estimated that of the coin now im the Treasury there are apout 00) which will require to be renovated. ‘The difference betwe the nominal and intrinsic value of the amount received ‘was about $73,549. The recoinage embraced nearly all the abraded gold coin in, the country other than those in circulation on the Pacific Coast, and which it Ls esti- mated do not exceed $2,000,000, Proper provision should be made for cailing in the light coins still in circulation, lly in view of the general renovation which has been made. ‘The loss from natural abrasion should be de- frayed by the gov and not by the last holder, tor the reason that it has occurred white die coins were pe a circulating medium. This prin- ognized in the recent coinage laws enmark, Sweden and Norway. Provision should, of course, be made for excluding coins which have been artificially reduced in weight or violent- hyjuged, and the reception of worn colns should be con ined to the mints, where all necessary precautions against recelving fraudulently reduced ‘cotns can eifectually observed. In explanation of what otherwise might be Considered an unusually large number of pieces found to be below the prescribed litnits of abrasion, it should be stated that there has not been a recoinage of gold in this country since that which followed the change of standard in 1834, and thatin the very large exports of coin since the suspension of spec ments in 1861. The unworn coins were selected for that purpose and the light or worn picces excinded. ‘the Director of the Mint says that the new mintedifice which has been for some time past in course of constru tion at San Francisco is about completed, and ub of fitting up the necessary machinery, fixtures and ap- paratus has beem commenced under the supervision of a ciple has been tully ree ot the German kmpire, ed it, and under whose direction it has been erected. ‘Was at one time considered unnecessarily large, but 10 re- fitting it up wlth a refining and coining capacity equal to the present 4 it has been found necessary to occupy the entire building The director devotes a considerable part of his report to the subject of gold as Yhe standard or measure of value a of silver as subsidiary, coming to the tallowing con- clusions :— ‘The authority for issuing subsidiary silver coin In pay- ment for silver bullion purchased for certain coinage will expire on the 13th of February, 1875. The bullion tor the purpose of supplying the coin Will then be purchased from time to time at gold rates and, paid for in gold coin. the government er rate J itself, for the outlay with the id coins received in exchange for the silver coin. mode of issuing subsidiary silver is undoubtedly the true one in countries were gold is the standard and much credit on . upervising Architect Mullet, who aenet. cel of United States currency will before long enable tl govern:nent to purchase silver bullion with ‘gold coin on its own account and pay out the resulting silver coins at their nominal value. At the present rave tor. silver and remium on gold the operation would net the reasury about ten per cent. This could not, it is believed, do injury | to interest, “bute would be ' productive “of much benefit. to the precious metal mining interests and business of the country at large, and should be adhered to until specie payinehis shall have been resumed on a substantial asis, after which those coins should be igsued only in exchange at par tor gold coins, and thus restrict the issue tothe actual requirements of the public for the purposes for which coms are intended. To recapitulate, we haye, first, gold as the sole standard or measure of value issued in coins, the intrinsic and denominational yalue of which correspond; in such coins are a legal tender in any sum; second, silver as a subsidiary to gold issued in coins, the denominational value of which exceeds their builion value, and are a legal tender in any sum not exceeding $5. ‘they are manufactured on ent account only and paid out as follows :— he government purchases, trom time totime, silver bullion at iix market value in gold, for manutactur- ing into coins ot less denomination than the dollar, a1 issues them in exchange tor gold coins at par, in sum not less than $10. The diflerence between the price paid for the bullion and the rate at which it Js issued in coin is the gain or seigniorage to the government, less the expense of manufacturing and distributing, being ex- changeable only tor gold coin. The issue will conse- quently be limited to the actual requirements of the public for change. This plan is adapted to times of specie payment. Secund—The government purchases silver bullion, and # for it in subsidiary silver, in which case tho seign- iorage ig in effect divided with the seller of the bullion, provided he is able to pass them off at their nominal or toll value in this country in times of specie payments, or in other countries, where coin constitutes the circulating medium. This mode ot issue was authorized tor a lim- ited period, toenable the coi to be exported to coun- tries having respectively doliars of different values a6 the monetary unit, and expires, as before statea, by lim- itation of law, on the 13th of February, 1875, Third—Vurchases ot silver bullion “are made at gold yalue and manufactured on government account into, subsidiary coin, which are paid out at the discretion of the Treasury Departmemt and according to its conve- nience. In this last, as inthe first cage, the fuil seignior- age ls realized by the government. ‘the mode of issue last described {s adopted for the condition of things whieh must necessarily precede the resumption of specie nts, and can be made available from time to time, according to the market value of silver and the Price of gold compared with United States currency. When the market is depressed and prices rate low the government may increase the silver bullion fund of the mints, transfer the coin manufactured from it to the Treasury, and pay it out at its discretion and conve- nience, It{s the only system under which, until the re- sumption of specie payments, the Treasury can realize the full selyniorage on ‘the subsidiary silver coin, which it should do in accordance with a well established prin- ciple, and the practice of other countries in respect to the inanutucture and issue ot such coins, For several Years past the seigniorage realized by the government upon the colnage of silver was only two and a half cents per standard ounce out of which the expense of manu- acturing and distributing the coin was defrayed. In the European States the seigniorage on subsidiary coin is from ten to fifteen per cent. The Director says the subject of international coinage continues to be agitated by the friends of monetary re- forin, but no substantial progress appears to have been made in the direction of @ general assimilation to the principal coinage of the world. The advantages, if any, of the proposed unification of moneys involving altera- tion in the quantity of fine gold, now representing the Uollar of account, should be decided ‘and well deter- before “the United States would be adopting especially 6 i exp payable in al is by 3 gold coin of the present standard; and 4 should be fur- ther added that the aiteratfons of standard moneys and weights and measures, to Which the public have long been accustomed, are grave matters, and should be un- dertaken ort when imperatively required asa matter of public utility. The amount believed to be necessary to place the New Orleans Mint in condition for coinage operations and for its support during the fiscal year was included in the estimates of appropriations for the mints and assay offices. Should the necessary appropriations be obtained for, these purposes the establishment can Dt put in operation in about three months’ ‘wards usefully employed in the manufac. and coinage of silver. le dollar was not commen nearly a wonth after the close of the fiscal —aR it ie been shipped to some extent to China ani there has not been received, as yet, any account 1 reception in those empires. ‘It will, no doub' year or two for ite successful introduction Japan, bat its mands on the mintsforcoim.
