These patterns form but another leaf in the di«yracefnl story of the mismanagement of the United States Mint. In otlier countries, the Mint is the centie from which numismatic knowledge emanates. In this country the Mint abhors numismatic interests. It serves to coin money, to be run as a political machine and to be abused by a certain class of its officials. It is a rule of the Mint, that patUmns shall be sold only during the year of issue, but this year the sale of the Barber-.Morgan dollars was refused by the Mint, while the officials, in a clandesiine manner, sold the>e patterns at enormous prices. Patterns forming a part ol' the numismatic progress and the histi>ry of C"in tge of a countiT, should be sold by the Mint to numismatists in limited numbers. As long as this is refused, there will be traud and disgrace. Ubo Lincoln Three Cent Envelope Stamp. Trial impression in lead. Offered to the Government by William H.
