THE ST. PAUL CONVENTION.

The Mayor and the several commercial
bodies OF the city appointed a very respecta.
BILE delegation both in numbers and ability,
to the st. Paul Convention, and we felt san
guine that New Orleans would be largely rep
resented In that important body. The great
Northwest has stretched out to us the hand
OF fraternity, and it was to be expected that
we would gladly and cordially clasp 1t. But
with real regret We learn that Col. Louis
Bush was the only member of the delegation
who left yesterday. Col Bush is q man
of decided ability and of interchangeable in
dustry and energy Whatever he takes hold
OF he manages with judgment and success.
No single man in the State could more fully
and ably represent New Orleans and Louisi-
ana at st. Paul, and SO, while we regret that the
balance Of the delegates are not to attend the
convention, we are sincerely gratified that
Col. Bush will be there.
Among the delegates appointed by the
Chamber Of Commerce was Prof. Forshey, of
this city. We're this gentleman to attend the
convention, he would ably cooperate with
Col. Bush, and it was the Colonel's great de-
sire that the Professor should accompany
him. But no appropriation or subscription
had been made by any of the bodies appoint
ing delegates, and Prof. Forshey, though
willing to go In the public interest, did not
feel justified in mourning the expense out of
his own pocket.
We think that two hundred or two hundred
and fifty dollars should be appropriated by the
city or raised by subscription to pay this
gentleman to go on and join Col. Bush. He
has devoted a lifetime to the study of our
levee system, our great river and the re-
sources of its valley, and probably under
stands these subjects as well, il not better,
than any man in the Mississippi Valley
The DEMOCRAT, approaching the important
purposes of the st. Paul convention, has, at
considerable expense, sent representative to
keeps its readers posted as to the proceedings
and surely New Orleans, either through its
municipal authorities, or by the subscription
of its people, should send representative of
SO much value as the Professor. ..s
This morning Mr.. Dupre, of this paper, will
visit our merchants and solicit subscriptions
to raise the small sum to secure the services
Of Professor Forshey. With Col. Bush, sup
ported by Professor Forshey, New Orleans
will be represented in q manner worthy of
her great interest in the gathering at st. Paul,
and we sincerely trust that the small sum re-
quired will be subscribed in time to enable
Prof. Forshey to leave this evening.

That learned geologist, Prof. Suess, has
come to the assistance of the remonetizers Of
silver with an array of indisputable facts
that demonstrate very clearly the impossi-
bility of making gold universal single
money standard. Had the other countries of
Europe initiated Germany in this respect,
they would have discovered, Prof. Suess de-
clares that there is not near enough gold
now in existence to carry on the business of
the world. Prof. Suess further shows that the
available gold concealed in our earth is now
nearly exhausted. Precious metals are found
in veins, in rocks, and in placers or Huvial
fields; the first is the most abundant source
of supply, while placer diggings, being the
result of the decomposition Of the primitive
rocks are naturally not very extensive
Silver is found mostly in veins, gold in
placer diggings, -twentieths of the
gold now in. use being thus mined. Phil
osophic investigation has shown that more
than half Of the supply these fields can
possibly yield has been already mined
The time is therefore not far distant when
they will be wholly barren and when the
worlds supply of gold will suddenly cease.
On the other hand, silver is extracted
mainly from veins and assures, sources so nu-
merous and widely distributed over the earth
that its supply is absolutely unlimited, al
though the cost of working it must ever make
it a precious metal.
In view of these facts Prof. Suess thinks that
the countries Of Europe which have demoni-
tized silver will not only be compelled to
abandon the single money standard of gold,
but that the time is very near at hand when
they will find it wise to renounce gold al
together as a circulating medium.
