MINERAL RICHES OF ARkAnsAs-We had yesterday quite
an interesting conversation with Mr.. Snel the well known
lhoXapher of city, who has Just returned from Jour
ney INTO the interior OF Arkansas Mr. Smell is
psbcd chemist and minealogist, and while travelling
Arkansas he employed his scientific aainments with
marked in exploring the meteorological treasures OF
the country He informs that he found the interior end
portion of the State full OF indications Of mine
raj and metallic wealth. He collected large number Of
specimens OF silver. iron, lead copper and zinc There
for believing that OF these metals exist in
great abundance, and that veins be worked great
advantage.
In of Mr. SHELLS researches he discovered
signs of the existence of extensive coal beds
places the quite thick He has brou gh
down number of fine specimens which prove indsputa
by that the quality of e coal is similar the Pttsbug
variety and all inferior in combusubliy ans Gallo
rife power to that article.
Mr.. Smell showed lump of gold which he picked up
nearly mbedded in sand and rock in Johnson county He
discovered this solitary sample OF the most precious OF the
metals crevice in reef of rocks projecting out in the
Arkansas river the mouth of Shoa creek, where he
thinks deposited during high water, and from which
it could easily escape. 1t has the appearance OF the
quartz gold of California, being mechanically blended with
rock. 1t weighs twelve dwts, and is worth about nine
dollars The surface of the specimen seems considerably
worn by aon and it had evidently been carried, with

point until reached the chink into which II fell where Its
pecic gravity prevented it from being washed away
Mr. Shell is of opinion that there gold in the imme

The article ia paper Of yesterday has called forth
much information which new 10 US respecting the
state OF public opinion We have heard of letters
which have reached Washington from various quarters
from Ohio. Pennsy and elsewhere the Norh-rs
speeding the general Union convection that proposed
be held in the city Of Washington on the ED day Of
February next Some OF these letters have been ad-
dressed to members of Congress from various places in
the Union. II seems the impression has gone abroad
that the contemplated Union convention was intended
10 present the general basis OF organization for the
great Union party of the country. upon which candi-
dates for the Offices OF President and Vice President, Of
the United States be nominated and supported by
the people of the Union This impression is universal
that neither time opportunity is sufficient to correct
the opinion that prevails Neither meetings conven-
tions could be assembled in time 10 counleract this
impression II is therefore, the opinion of Of the
most rejecting with whom We have coDversed that
general assemblage Of the people Of the Union
could not be secured and without this any other
yention would be than useless.
Under all the circumstances, the opinion very gen
era that the convention ought not to be held in
Washington at this time and that however I'M
exceptionabe and even desirable it might be to hold
La Union convention in this city, like the meet
ngs in the northern cities-a Union meeting founded
upon platform similar the one which has been adopt
ed by the convention of Georgia and by the popular
meeting in Jackson Mississppye it's object has been
grossly perverted, and the impression that it might
into political and party organization is beginning take
deep root, that general attendance could not be OBJ
tanned 1t is the opinion therefore, Of those who were
originally friends 10 the Union meeting, with whom
have conversed that this meeting ought not 10 be held
at this time.
In connection with this movement reports have been
extensively circulated The effect that prominent members
of both parties have been prompted TO favor this meeting
as basis Of party organization. General Cass
and other prominent democrats have been freely
charged with forming alliances and combinations with
prominent wings to secure their own elevation at the
sacrifice of their principles We feel authorized to say
that all such rumors idle and unfounded. In the
present exciting and critical condition of public af
fairs. it is unjust and ungenerous to faithful and we'll
tried public servants to throw suspicion around their
patriotic efforts to the Union and preserve the nteg
rity of the republic.
