THE LATE BANKERS CoNvENrIoN.-At
the recent Bankers Convention heled in
New York much OF the time was consul
med in discussions upon the question Of
resumption; but the speakers mostly
failed to appreciate the true situation.
They enlarged upon tho benefits that
would follow upon re.estAblishmOnt Of
specie payments, and grew enthusiastic
in the praises Of coin. One thing, how.
ever, seemed to escape them. Granting
that it is excellent and desirable that the
legal tenders shall be made redeemable
in gold upon presentation, it remains to
be shown how this end is, in the present
condition OF affairs, to be attained.
There iB not, nor is there likely to be for
years to come, enough gold in The Treas.
ury to meet the notes outstanding. And
what is the government going to oabout
ii? To resume upon the presumption
that the people will not want to redeem
the Treasury notes when the opportunity
is offered them, would be worse than idle.
Yet that is the idea ofthose whose wish is
fatherto the thought that the country is
yet ready for the embodiment of the res.
umption scheme. Trying to carry agreat.
er load than our strength will bear is a
suicidal policy.

The Sunday question ia being holly
discussed in Philadelphia in consequence
Of the Sunday opening Of the Permanent
Exhibition. The Presbyterian Minister
ial Association have taken strong ground
Of opposition against the action Of the
Exhibition Board Of Managers. In an
interview with the Mayor, he informed
Mr.. MacLaughin that he was in favor Of
the Sunday laws, but the legal mind Of the
city was largely divided on the subject.
The general public appear to approve the
action Of the board, us the attendance is
much larger on Sunday than other days.
1t has occasioned much surprise to Sab.
batariuus that, with the exception OF the
Presbyterian Board Of Publication, only
three or four exhibits have been with.
drawn in consequence Of the Sunday
opening.
