DemOnetiZing Gold.

That the effect OF the WARNER Silver bill,
II 1t should become law, would be TO de-
monetize gold in this country, aud establish
the silver dollar Of 4l2l grains as the sole
standard Of values, admits, we think, OF no
reasonable doubt. 1t would substitute sill
yer for gold in the financial operations Of
the Government, and, by a natural conse-
quence, in those Of private persons. At first
the silver certificates 1t provides for would
circulate on n par with gold, but very
soon creditors living in foreign coun-
tries would ask for gold in preference to
silver because gold dollars would be worth
to them one-siXth more than silver dol
lars for the purposes Of paying their own
debts or for making purchases at home.
This would lead TO a demand for gold which
would cause 1t TO sell at a premium over
silver, as 1t did over greenbacks during the
suspension OF specie payments. The pre-
MUM would huctuate with the luctuating
value OF silver as n commodity in foreign
markets, but in general it would remain at
point enough below the difference between
gold and silver coin TO render the export OF
gold slightly profitable. Debtors, Of course,
in paying their debts, would avail them
selves Of their right TO choose between gold
and silver and would select silver as the
cheaper OF the two. New contracts also
would be made with reference to silver, be-
cause of the Inconvenience of transacting
business In two kinds Of money OF different
values; and thus, while gold would go to
Europe, silver would remain here and be the
usual currency.
This substitution Of silver for gold would
lead TO an increase in the prices Of all inn
ported goods, because the importer, having
TO buy gold TO remit for them, would seek TO
get back the premium on it. 1t would like
wise lead TO an advance In produce export
able TO Europe, because it would be paid for
there in gold, and the gold, or the exchange
drawn against It, would bring premium.
Other commodities would sympathizein in the
movement, and there would be nominal
advance in all kinds Of property. Wages,
salaries, and rents would necessarily have
to be increased TO correspond, and thus,
eventually, our whole scale OF receipts and
expenditures would be adjusted to n dollar
Of oighty-four cents in gold or whatever
its value might bc, as it is now adjusted TO
dollar Of one hundred cents in gold.

HENDRICKS might be regarded MS rather n
serious matter but at this day. in our pop
ulous country, there are several men who
might possibly get along, and creditably
too, in the Office OF Vice-President.
There Is a resident OF one OF the States
adjoining that of which Mr. HENDRICKS was
formerly Governor, who recently wrote the
following letter:

Many persons think the author Of this
letter would make an excellent candidate,
either for Vice-President or President.
Then there is Gen. PALMER OF Illinois
what impediment is there in the way OF his
being Vice-President or President?
Gov. SEWARD used to tell very good
story about his own self-sufiiclency when
he retired TO resume the practice Of his
profession, after having been several years
Governor Of the great State Of New York.
He said he had. naturally, from being in
Office 50 long, imbibed the feeling that ho
was Of a good deal OF Importance and that
the people would not be content TO do very
long without his services. But he soon dis
covered his mistake, and learned that no
one man was indispensable to the public
service. AS it foil from the lips OF Mr..
SEWARD it was very entertaining story,
but we presume Mr.. HENDRICKS never
heard him tell it.
