the influence ol the threatened, and dually the
actual Invasion of the District of Columbia,
the barometer ro.-ogiadualW until, on the 1 1 Mi
of July, it readied its maximum, the highest,
I oint caused by the war, and Heltled at 2S"
mi ndvar.ee in twenty days of eight -six per
cut. On the Kith it reached SMI, the lowest
point for July. During August it underwent
the most eccentric changes, ascending and
descending In a manner pcrfectlyi explicable.
Kvery rumor bad its effect, and fortunes were
lr.nde and lost during tint days in which he
dog star reigns," all the variations, however
I, l ing between 2l"i and 2"H.
Towards the beginning of Sepltmber all
cjos were tinned to Chicago. The assem
bling of tho Democratic Convention caused a
vast number ot political rumors to bo sot
afloat, which had their ctfoct on the market.
Just previous to its assembling, gold sank to
S-il, while immediately after tho adoptisuof
the platform it had riseu to iioli. Upon the
receipt ol'the news oftSm.litoAN 'h v!ctory,gold

iloublu service to his country, for with his
glorious deed came a toil of cold and ruin to
many ol the secession specula tore who
lie coining money out ef our soldiers' blood.
Gradually the premium nsi-cmlud, until ou
the 17th nt Oetob -r SJ22 was attained, wdien
r.ga'n the gallant Hnr.iaiiAN dctea od tho
Itebuls, and bi twenty-lour hours it fell to 201.
Thu election had no etfeet upon gold, as tiie
result w.ts lor weeks belorc a foregone con
clusion. Since which time it has wildiy
(iuctuatcd, and as soon as the glorious; new
lroin Siikhman is coulirtncd, tho fall of gold
will follow the Fill of Savannah. The uowj,
although probably true, has not yet assumed
a (lcllnito shape. As soon as that is reached,
the eU'cet upon gold will be at oncu visible.

property of tie nation, and may be disposed
of as Coneiess sbull determine. That they
should yield a revenue to tho owner, Inde
pendent of tho collateral advantages derived
from Individual enterprise in extracting the
precious metal-, would ut em to admit of no
dispute. Mr. Fk.-skn'iiEX then goes ou iu hit
report to tav :
"On the one hand it mny l.c said tl.a' to s. II

This eertainly Is a most important "lU'ges
tion, in view of tlitt present enormous exjie.i.li
tuicn of the 'Government iu the prosecution
ol the war against rebellion, and the conse
quent ucecssity of making the. most of every
pos.sible means of revenue. It Is ipiite obvious
that the greater the amount of incorr.o which
the Fcdeiiil Treasury can obtain from other
source?, the smaller will be lb,e deficit tint
must be made up from t.ixati. in. Iu a recent
article we showed tbtit though n coii-iderablo
share of that part of the public binds adapt d
to agilculture wn already given away to
actual settlers, mi l th" resid.ie ilcdieaipd by
law to tho same gratuitous d'spo.-ltlun, yet
the Government had not In fact lost by the
arrangement, but a-' 'tally reaped, ladlreefy,
a very large bene 31. While, therefore, there is
nothing to regret upon that score, It must
be apparent thut a very iliiluruut policy should
bo pursued with reference to that di vision of
thu domain which, though not capablti of sur
face cultivation, and fit lor tlio homesteads of
our agricultural population, is Immensely
i!.-h in mineral wealth. To make n absolute
gill of such territory to thine who will d"
vclop their vast and untold treasure, would
bciiiiacl of thrillh-ss prodigality on tho part
ot the nation, since tlio largo prollts which a

Mint rids, to w hit It the iiduiiiii tratlou ot all
details in tho farming of this vast nation il
(vlale shall be committed; and lie also pro
poses the levying ol a revenue tax upon Ihiwi
who me engaged in gathering- individual
wealth from this national property. On this
head lie observes :
"II. e rulruiirnt of a modsr.,to lie.cnsi- fee
from 1 nc li peis.ui i-nated in plm-rr m in 111 if 11 ) m
the public noniHiu, nd. 11 rc-Bsoiiiihle tax iion
Hie piaduet ot ull mines, whn-li 111 g'it he gru.iu
ateiJ uceordiug to tlio eo-t of production, would
l.u .11, st 10 ibe (iovernmctit and SAtisanTorv to tl 1 0
diiuIdk intercut. When It is considered Hut a
nominal tax ol one per centum upon the prosont
prodi.ct of the mines would yield a larger in ome
ihun It ni w d.rivid from tho sale of the pontic
b.ndi', with an expense of cotlectiDK h eoiuesra
tiely smad, and that the pmspeciive revenue
from this souict-ii o great, tue iiapoliey of giaat
ligltienilnesnridniiuer.il lands in f.-o, wituoat
contktt ration, must be apparent to all."
Without objecting to tlio Idea of a lieen-as
toe to be paid by each miner, thcro may yot
be a rcoro eligible mode, of securing the end
contemplated. The Government, at all
events, should not fail ti require such a bonus
for tho privilege of mining Us beds of goll,
silver, and other precious motals, as will boar
a just and liberal proportion to tlio bcnelit
which Industrious and energetic privato entor
prbe would be likely to reap from tho grant.
This is the flist consideration on which Con
gress should banc its legislation upon tlio
subject.
As legnids the best plan for making tho
mineral lauds of tho Government tributary to
its tieasury, opinions may dilllx. Hut.this, at
It ast, may be said with soma confidence, that
a mode of procedure adopted by individuals
iu business, and which lias been found to wor'.c
beneficially ior all concerned, could reason
ably lie expected to operate quite as well if
adopted by tho Government in a similar case.
In tho development of coal oil territory, it
Is tho uuiversal custom for tho owners of
tho fee simple to lease tho land r a term of
years, reserviug, lu consideration of tho usu
fructuary right, what is tailed a "royalty" of
all tho oil produced. This system might bo
applied by Congress lu deriving a revenue
bom the mineral lands of tho nation. It would
best haiaicniK the Interest of tho Govern
ment with that of tho minors, whilo tlio
receipts of the I'sderal Treasury from ths
mines would alwaya bear au exact proportion
to tho prolits nf tho miners. The principle,
a! nil events, is worthy of consideration.
