The Causes that Bring Down Colds
Contraction Needed to Keep &.
'.INf' Il Down.

From l1 Chle11O Tribune Of ne ca,
The attention Of the business public has
scarcely ever been more attentively fixed
upon tho price Of gold than II has during
the past week, Every one acknowledges
that the causes which now determine The
course Of the gold premium are legitimate
and entirely different from those which
have caused the speculative fluctuations
during the past four years; and for this
reason no one who has investigated the
causes expects 70 sec any considerable up
ward reaction, as has always been the
case when the price has boon put down
BY combinations Of speculAtors. The
questions Of most Importance now are:
How far will gold declinGG and, If II
should go 70 par during The next SIX
months or year, would II stay lercs In
answer to the first Of these questions VIC
can only recite tic causes which have
from timo to time during the
last d five months been pointed out
In the 7T0UNd Us likely to pro.
duce just tho effects that have been
experienced in the decline Of gold. The
primary cause Of this downward move
mcnt OF tie price Of gold was in the Abun.
dant crops of'1668. The export Of the
large surplus Of these during 1860 dccreas.
cd the export Of gold 80 that tho exports
from the port Of Now York were only
$39, ,t09, AIS In, 1850, against $70, ,84t 800 In
1868, and tho increase Of specie In the
country in 1850 was probably $50, ,000, 900
To $40, 100000. In the first part Of this
year, also, tho cxpOrtablc surplus Of the
great cotton. crop, tho abundant grain
crop in tho Northwest and In California

enormous expectation Of bonds all COM.
