[Fron our jugular Correspondent.] WASHINGTON. March 23, 1888. Mao j persons woo visit thc Treasury Department sigbt-seeing, sod even some of those employed in the building, do not know that there is ao assay office oo the top floor of the west wing, where a sample of all the coin manufactured at the several mints throughout the United States is submitted to a test as to weight, fineness, aod standard Taloc. ' Dr. Lawner is. the assayer, aod regularly every month the minta forward to him samples of such coto as they are mano-, facturing, which he pots to tbe delicate tests of weight, fire sod chemicals, to see if they come op to the standard fixed by law. Within the past few months, specimens of ore from all parta of the jjtjagtrj have been sent to the Treasury to-UUested, aod their quality defined. Dr. Lawoor bas a thorough knowledge of minerals aod metals, aod ia very kind io explaining to visitors the vari?os processes throng h which gold and ail vcr coin have to pass before their exact valoe is established. He gives a oom* ber of illustrations ?od tries interesting experiments with samples of ores scot him for examinatioa, so that a visit to his laboratory wilt well repay any one who feels interested io the testing of metals. Access to this office most be procured through heads of bureaus, for oo account of the importance of the work, aod tb^e perfect accuracy required io testing the valoe of the various met? als forming component parts of our standard money, visitors are excluded except by special permission. During the last ten days of the re? cent session Congress ordered the pub? lication of matter that will cost $219, 000, bot no additiooal appropriation was made for this work. It most be done ont of the regular appropriations, aod at the next session, when the defi? ciency thus rendered necessary is asked forvthere will no doubt be Congressmen who will declaim" against the extrava? gance io public printing. The respon? sibility for this extravagance rests en? tirely with Congress. Orders are made ia both Houses for the printing of mat? ter that-is entirely useless and worthless, without seemingly giving a thought to the expense. Daring the last session the committee on printing undertook to reduce the expenditure by cutting down the Bamber of vari?os publications, bot io almost every effort of this kind it was overruled. The tons of matter, printed by pablfe expense, which are annually hauled away from the Capitol and sold aa waate paper furnish abundant proof of the extravagance io poblio printing, bat every pege of that matter waa priot I ed by order of Congress. A few days ago Secretary of the Treasury Foi ger who baa- been sick physically as well as politically since bia somewhat pronounced defeat for Governor of New York-'folded bia tent like tbe Arab' and silently left the city. It is aot unusual for a bank officer to 'vamoose the ranche* in this way. Bat for the Secretary of the Treasnry of the United States to come aad go without doe notice to the news? paper ia, to say the least, aot common. Mr. Folger got off however and no ooe bot a clerk io the Department named Baiter kaew whither. The result of thia maoner of going gave the too care? ful Secretary's departure a much more extensive newspaper advertisement than that from which he tried to escape. Yesterday be came back again from a little sea voyage, somewhat improved io health, but a very aiek man still. There remain io thia city forty-six Congressmen who while sway the time aa they li?t, bat many of them are en? gaged ia aa effort to out-flank the civil service idea, and secure appointments io the Government offices for their rela? tives and friends. It is gettiog so cora > moo oowadaya for public meo who con I trol patronage to stow members of their family io anog places that, unless one goes to the Keifer extreme aad provides for all bis SOBS, nephews and cousins, it scarcely attracts more theo a passing notice. Thc Senator who first set the example of appointing bia soo clerk of bb committee was made uncomfortably conspicuous by that act ; but it woold seem that Senators' sons make aoeb superior committee clerka that public aeutimeot was mistaken in condemning the practice of appointing them. In the last Congress eight Senate com? mittees bad fathers for chairmen aod sons for clerks, thoa afford? ing the public a doable abare of the family talent.

The Secre? tary is now suffering from erysipelas in the face acd bead, brought on by a severe cold.

Ko invention of the mi ne teen th century has worked a greater revolution in household economy or conferred more of a benefit on humanity than the sewing machine. The first productions were crude and un? couth in the extreme, and it was reserred for American skill and ingenuity to bring forth a maebice of any practical Taine. Jo order to appreciate the great advance? ment which has taken place it is only neces? sary to compare one of the machines built doting the infancy of the intention with one of the latest improved ^'Light-Running New Home." In the manufacture of this machine old ideas bare been discarded, and in accordance with the progressive movement of the age new mechanical principles bare been substi? tuted of such inherent and absolute value as cannot fail to commend themselves to the most casual observer. * For all kinds of domestic and manufactu? ring work the "New Home" is unequaled. All the really good points contained in other machines have been utilised in its con? struction. Many new improvements and de? vices have also been added, the result of which is a machine as nearly perfect as it is possible to make one. For simplicity, durability, ease of manage? ment and capacity for work, the "Light-K?n? ning New Borne" bas no rival, and the hap? py possessor of one may rest assured tbat be or she has the very be^st the world affords.
