J. ‘Tho contract prices has ranged from #1 8! to #260, averaging about $2, so that the total expen- diture for this single article of military equip- ment bas been nearly two millions of dollars, A more substantial article, aftor the French and Prussian pattern, has beon purchased for some rogimonts, at a cost of from $4 to $150. Ton thousand of them have been imported and 6,000 more manufactured by Eowanp Guat ns, of No. 5 Marray atrost, in connection with other contracts, The manufacture of these knapancks has givon employment to the trunkmakers of this cit y, at time when tho sales in thoir regular business was leas than 20 per cont. of ordinary yoars. It is estimated that some 12,000 operatives, male and fomale, have been kopt at work in this way directly, while the industry of a largo number of othors, has been incidentally affected. Brass founders, stair-rod makers, wire drawers, and others, werkers in motal, whose usual business is completely dead, have turned thoir attention to the manufacture of the brass trimmings for knapsacks, while « large numbor of others have found employment in furnishing tho immense number of buckles and straps required, The demand for canvas, thread, paint, &c., has also stimulated trade in those articles, and not lesa than ten or fiftoon thousand dollars having been expended for the single article of wax with which the thread used in sewing is stiffened, Before the prevent war, the Governmont knapsacks were all made in Philadelphia, at the regulation price of $2.72 each; but compe sition has reduced the price to an avorage of about #2, some contracts having beon taken as low as #1480. The large number of knapsacks called for, shows that our soldiers aro not as carelal of them as they might be. A good knapsack ought to last two or three years, and even with such treatment as they ordinarily re- coive, atleast a year, But many regiments not sis months in the field, have had two sets already, and some after being supplied by the ined requisitions on the Gov ernment for a new lot and thrown their old Iuable for use, ones away, while still int Regulations, sting regulations at the Mint in rela tion to the purchase of silver bu'lion are just hed by the Director, Tho Mint price of , heretofore 121 cents, ix now raised to 4 couts per ounce of standard fineness, This tule applics as well to the Assay office at New York as to tho Mint at Philadelphia, For the information of the public, it inay be stated that: according to the above rate of purchase, the yield of various classes of coin or bullion will be about as follows Five franc piec seseeses 98,0 conte each, Mexican and South American D WAFB cosocrrocsssooreacescoe 1088 “ Od Spanish’ Doltara 0000 I) 105. ” Half Dollare of the U, 8, coined be fore 1807... 4. 101.2 “ 6 wiuce 1897 to" the last ane of standard in 1559, 4 Bpautals Quarter Mexican Quartars : Quarter dollars ‘are. ably leas pro- ductive of premium, white dimes and half dimes coined betore 1437" have lost rather more by wear, on an average, than the premium would make up ; thr «ccoined ainee 1437 to 145%, with average a premium of 5 per cent, on the'r no minsl value, 3 ‘ Fine silver, 130¢e. per ounce, American plate, 120 to 1?2c. per ounce.

Those rice-ficlts have been all “‘ilowed” or inundated, by military suihoritg, so that there are now only a few narrow roads by which the Yankees can push forward toward the in- terior, Should thoy adyazes, of couree they must abandon the sapport of the gun-beats, and trust to their own strength upon land, THE KEDBLS MAKING WOODEN suoKs, Tho Raleigh (N. ©.)
