CHICAGO.
wearing o.

A lively struggle has for some time convulsed
the inner circles Of the Opposition with regard
to the time Of holding their Presidential Conven-
ton at Chicago-the "Peace " faction wishing
to do up the work on the 4th and 9Th prox. by
the nomination Of Mcclellan and Guthrie, or
some such ticket. That portion of the managers
who feel that the party could not hope to win
on that tack, and should not if it could, have
been trying hard to postpone the Convention to
some day late in August or early in September
but we believe they have failed. 1t now seems
that the desired postponemcnt will not be or
dered; or, if It should be, that the order will be
disregarded. This is bad for the party; but it
may, for that very reason, be good for the
country.
And so, while we regard their struggle with
interest, we cannot determine which faction we
would wish to triumph at Chicago. If the
thorough Copperheads, who cry Peace" but
mean reconstruction on the basis of jeff
Davis triumph and the Confederate Constitu-
ton, shall have their own way, their triumph
will weaken and imperil the Government, but
will insure tie overwhelming defeat Of their

TO THE ANXIOUS.

Az it has seemed to us e1pedient and proper
to devote, for the present, our columns and our
efforts mainly to the inauguration of the War for
the Union, leaving politics and Presdent-making
to await, so far as may be, the issue Of the cam
pagns now in progress, some Of our friends and
a good many Of the other sort are solicitous as
to the course we may ultimately take. and some
Of them address to US letters on the subject
which we have not time severally to answer.
But we can easily give general rule that will
enable any one to solve all such problems for
himself.
If, then, you cherish any soicitude, any
doubt, on this or any kindred subject, just drop
in on the ten bitterest and most malignant Pro-
Slavery Copperheads you happen to know, and
ask each in confidence what course be would
pish TIE TRIBUNE TO take in this or any other
contingency; and, if he answers you truly, you
may safely conclude that We shall act precisely
as he desires we should not This rule is easily
applied, and has rarely been known to fail. And
it will probably wear q good while without
wearing out.

ATHELsTANE THR UNREADY.

The London Quarterly, in an article on the
Prospects of tho Confedcrates, shows its appre-
citation of the gcncralship Of Mcclellan thus:
1.-THE Federals after sustaining defeat at Bull Run
unconcscously FILTERED away immense superiority Of
stength which still remained to them By selecting Gen.
Mcclellan. as their new Commandern.chief. For
mouths and months this Athelstane the unreadya

Beaurcgard, with an unruly and riotous army. little
moro than 30 900 strong Intoxicated with their recent
victory. which was loudly celebrated in beakers Of
whisky, by dance and by song"
Basing It's estimate of the Northern captains
on such achievements, of course the Quarterly
can do nothing but prophesy victory and indie
pendence for the COnfederates. McClellan's in
ability to keep open his communications with
the White House, when On the Chickahominy,
is made the basis for general declaration that
"no large army of the Federals had ever got
more than 30 miles away from its wator base
for any length of time" and this is given as the
reason why Atlanta can never be taken, and why
Richmond cannot be approached directly from
Washington.
The ghost Of the Great Unready still haunts
the memory Of Europe, and even now depriyes
our heroic armies and commanders OF that gen.
erous sympathy which, sooner or later, is always
won by genius and valor.

IMPROVEMENT IN GOLD-MINING

| Throughout the most tremendous civil war IN
history, which has called to arms half the able
bodied men in the country and still retains at
least five per cent Of the entire population In
military service, we have been steadily adding
SO, 900 900 10 S75,0O0.o0o per annum TO the
worlds stock of the Precious Metals, and are
still increasing our product AS yet, the
mines of Arizona, of Utah. Of Idaho, OF New
Mexico, and even of Colorado and Nevada, have
barely been prospected; our pioneers are
rather searching for and locating than really
opening them. Probably twice rs much time
and effort were devoted, during the last twelve
months, to finding and proving mines this side
Of California as to working them. With Peace
and the Pacific Railroad half constructed, our
annual product of Gold and Silver would soon
run up to $500, 100000. There are probably
persons now living who will see it double that
amount. Gold will yet be the chief staple Of
our commerce, but especially our chief export
Hitherto, our Gold-mining machinery and pro-
cesses have been exceedingly rude and inefficient
The average estimate ofpractical miners fixes the
proportion of Gold secured from the ore actually
raised and crushed at twenty-five per cent.
There are very few mills in operation whose
tailings.' or crushed and washed ore, being eX-
posed for few years to the influences of heat
and frost, sun and rain, will not yield ut least
as much of the precious metal as they did when
first crushed; and, in some instances, the pro-
cess has been repeated a third time with equal
success. How to save the Gold Is everywhere
the miners pcrpcxity; that he does not secure
half of it, is his standing complaint; and new
processes and devices for saving it are often
presented.
Mr. Edward N. Kent, the Meter aud Reiiner
in the u. S. Assay Office in our City, has for
some time been engaged in a series of expert
ments on ores of IA pyritous nature, with intent
to increase largely their average yield of Gold
and Silver. Careful assays had long ago eStab-
lished the fact that these ores do not yield to the
usual processes Of miners even a fourth Of the
Gold they contains; that metal being so blended
with Copper. Zine, or Iron, as todely all attempts
to separate even half of it, Mr.. Kent, By an en-
lTfll OlPlHul plotths HInl ciiIllilutto tic DuStl
metals, leaving the Gold and Silver perfectly
obcdent to the attraction of quicksilver, and
thus easily separable from the rock wherein they
were imbcdded. BY this means, not only are
the Precious Metals wholly distracted, but there
is obtained an ample sufIcicncy of the baser to
pay the entire cost Of mining. SO signal has
been the succcss of Mr.. Kcnts experiments
that company has already been formed to pur-
chase his processes at a liberal price and COM
mend them TO general adoption. They are
