The Cincinnati Commercial SAYS :


A Mr.. Chase, Of Iowa.. vino has been two
years in California and idaho, reports that
the gold mines Of the former State are
more rich than these Of the latter that the
mines Of Idaho occupy a very limited space
at that, and that the hue and cry about the
rich mines Of that country is raised by spec
vlators. He estimates that there are now
in the Territory upward of thirty thousand
men out Of employment. The price ofIiv
ing is exorbitant, the climate cold, and the
obstacles in the way Of achieving fortune
greater than in the States. We have eau,
toned those who have been dazzled BY &C.
counts of the enormous gold resources Of
Idaho to look at the other side before deter.
mining to abandone pursuits that may yield

Union NATIONAL CONVENTION,

As w predicted last week, the National
committee have. called a National Union
convention. This is in our judgement just
what the best interest Of the country de
msnds At this time. 1t is just what great
many Of the best Statesmen in the country
have sought for for the last three years. and
just what many pAblic journals, least among
which Is the VoLuNrEER, have tabored to
effect.
Now that the call has in, fact been made
men who have opposed it as impracticable
wonder that it was not adopted as the policy
ofthe Union men Of the country in the out
set ofthe rebellion. Two weeks ago the
Republican Of this city. quoting from it's
master spirit, tho St. Paul Press, denoun,
ced it as impracticable. One week ago that
paper sought to show that the end was prac-
tically attained by changing the name, bn,
adhsrirs to the organization Of the Rcprb:i
can party. One Of the editors Of that paper
in an article entitled the Republican Union
Party" acknowledged that the policy Of
coming together in one grand conglomer.-
ito" oflojalty is exceedingly beautiful in
theory, but said it was quite as impractical
ble As it is be autiful. The National commit
tee have taken the steps to test tho practi
cab'''ty Of that theory, a~d both Of the gen.
tltmen ALLUDED toa delegates in the recent
County contention acted for resolution con-
curing in ths action Of the committee in that
regard.
We might. il va thought proper compare
the action Of our State Central Committee,
With that Of the National Committee. Oae
wss pstitioued by citizens and by LegisIa
two Representatives., 10 call Union Con-
ventiou. but 1t the command OF the ST..
Paul Prts' refused to do 50. alleging that
they had no authority to do 10. The OH
or, ON its own responsibility assumed to do
what everybody knows to b right, and the
people everywhere sustain them.
The iasus can be definitely presented
now. Union or disunioa. Coppsrhsadism
cannot row hide behind what loyalty there
now remains in the old Democratic party,
for oil men who love the Union better than
party. will coms upon . purely union
platform.
The uaisa 0aa q The North and o: th~
herder States, can now vote their Union
sentiments without being compelled to come
out and j'in the ranks ofstheir old political
ensmies. A greater blow has not been dealt
to Copperhsadism since The commencement
Of the war. for now they have no screen of
loyalty behind which to hide their filthy
sarcssses.

9. We have so recently urged the Enlistment
bill upon the attention Of the Senate, and there
is such total want Of arguments against it,
that we do not discuss It's merits; we assume
them, and speak now only of the necessity fol
immediate action. The West seems to be moved
by spirit Of local jealousy, arising from the
fear lest Weather Eastern States may out
bid The Western in tho competition that
will be opened. Mr.. Grimes Of Iowa,
Mr.. Trumbull of Illinois, and Mr..
Sherman of Ohio, all oppose it on this ground.
We pray them to put such thoughts aside, and
remember that the cOuntry-the ,choic country
needs troops. DO not interpoSe sectional
hostilites to prevent their enlistment. The
bill passed the House more than six weeks
since, and may go through the Senate at once
ifthe Western members will be guided only by
rational considerations.
3. The bill to equalize the pay of coored and
white troops was passed by the Senate IN
hHdpt NuitH No w HVl dlt'S'thoi hPPio'N' ""'
which we regard as much better than nothing.
We Strovc to impress upon the Senate that sent-
mcnt of justice which animates the people and
which causes them TO revolt from denying to
the cOlorcd soldiers the wages justly and legally
due them for past services The Senate indi-
Gated its preference for policy of repudlation
We shall never share it, nor shall We abandon
the effort to get justice done the brave blacks
who fought at Milliken's Bend, at Port Hudson,
at Fort Wagner, at Oustee. 1t may be done
by this bill, or BY another, but clearly ought to
be by this. IT. however, the passage of this
is to be endangered by persistent effort
in the House to restore to it those iea-
lures of which it was bercft in the Senate, it
may be a question what course ought to be
taken. The equalization OF future pay is a
measure so essential to future enlistments that
1t must be adopted at all events, and cannot be
postponed without serious injury to the service.
What we entreat llcn, is that the Senate bill
shall be forthwith taken mp in the House,
amended, if in the judgment of Its friends
can be carried; but at any rate,
and in some shape, Immediately passed.
New-York daily tribune., 1864-04-12
TO CONGRESS.

There are three measures which we are anx.
ious that Congress should pass at once-meas-
ures whose immediate adoption is Of great mo-
ment, and which are in such stage that they
can become laws without difficulty. They are
The Freedmen's Bureau bill.
The bill to allow the loyal States to recruit
from the citizens Of the disloyal.
The bill to equalze the pay of colored and
white troops.
/. The Freedmen's Bureau bill passed the House
by close vote some weeks since 1t is under
stood that Mr. Sumner is dissatisfied with its
details and proposes to submit dissimlar
measure TO the Senate as q substitute. Such a
course imperils the passage OF any measure
nay, insures the defeat of both his and the
House bill. To amend the bill and send it back
is fatal, for the majority of its friends is so
small that its enemies will have little difficulty
in killing it in those late hours Of the session
Mr.. Sumner and the Senate must choose be-
tween the House bill and none--not between
that and better--and we presume no friend OF
the freedmen will hesitate when that is the
alternative offered. Such measure-or some
measure-ought to have preceded the Emanci-
patton Proclamation, to have smoothed for tho
slaves their difficult and uncertain path to free
dom. For want Of it they have stumbled in
darkness and in terrible suffering for more than
@ year. Do not condemn them to further need
