Mr. Clark asks t the reference of his
resolutions to the Committee on Foreign
Affairs.. ; '
Mr. Loch, of Cincinnati, offered the fol.,
lowing : ,
WHEREAL The Secretary of the Treas
ury bas of late made it a practice to sell'
part of the goldhi in the Treasury,.
and with the phic de thereof has pur
?
chased tive-twent bonds at a high pre •
mium; and wher as, we consider such
proceedings as u Just, impolitic, and a*
great disturber of legitimate commerce
of, the whole coutry. Therefore, be it
Resolved, That he honorable Secretary
States Treasury he request
ed to desist eithe in selling the reserved;.
gold coin or in buying five-twenty bonds;.
that iris certainly below the dignity of
the United States to go into open
market, and sell at- a high premium
tie gold coin for , currency, which brings
a price below what en its face the United
States promises to pay, thus showing to
the world that the Government of the
United States acknowledges its own
currency to be below par, while •they
also plainly shoW that gold is designed
to be used as a speculative medium. It
is also below the dignity of the Republic
that the Secretary of the Treasury
should buy theve•twenty bonds, for if
five-twe nties these are redeemable in
bonds„Alje Governmeot should at imice •
,redeem atneas fifteen million of them,
and continue in Specie. Such a course
would be hon table to ouisue, and
would have the ratifying effect of bring
1,
log the five-two ties-up to gold par, and
be to the credit f our Government. We
could negotiate ew loins at three per
cent., and call in our six per cent. bonds,
lilt the sense of the nation that the five
twenty bonds ar redeemable in curren•
ay, why buy the at each a high, pre.
ini UM ? Let ou Government commence
at the earliest in meat and pay them at
the rate of eigh millions of dollars per
month, In curre cy--such currency to be
a legal tender; a solo be receivable at the
custom house. for foreign imports
at about two•thrds payable in gold end
t.
one-third in cu rency. tither of these
methods would relieve our commerce
and bring us Speedily to a specie basis,
and relieve the agricultural and mann.
facturing interests of the country from
the-merey of rookie's speculators. -
Referred to the Committee on Finance.
Gen. Walbridge, of New York. intro
duced the following resolution and de.•
sired to put it immediately on its Re.
sage, but the• ride of 'referencato Com
unitee was insisted upon, the Chair con
curring: .. - ' -
Resolved, That this Convention heart
ily approves the recent sale of gold In
the city of New York by the general
Government and the thanks of this Con
vention are hereby tendered te the Pres
ident of the United. States for his prompt
authority to the Secretary of the Treas
ury to take such ' measures as would pre
vent the extension of a - financial crisis,
which was already deranging all the
channels of trade, and but for such ac

Loirnow, October 13.—The Timea this
morning has an editorial 9n Spanish of
The writer says he has but little
sympathy fortind less faith in Spanhih
Republicanism. The failure of the pres
ent government is owing toss unneces
sary prolongation of the provisional &v. ,
ernment, and the attemptl , to close it
up when it has beeorne impossible
to do so. There Is now no
king forthcoming, and It •is better
to leave the matters as thby are. A re
gency Is the only poiaible scheme.
When it is understood that, d angerous
questions lie dorment, a change in the
Government will be indefirietely• ad
jjurned. Some steps may now-be made
towards a ooncilltatlon of the two
parties. Casellar • and Figueras - and
others are not formidable , s as
adversaries, and may be useful as.
,friends. They are avowed Republicans,
but men of order, who might easily re
gard the regency as a half -way house
less ob j ectionable than a Monarchy, and
less dangerous than. a republic. Prim
leans this way, and between him and
Castellar a union is possible. A. goverri-
Inent in which Castellar would represent
Freedom and Prim Order and Authorit y,
might offer sufficient guarantees of hie
honest views and tendencies to , satisfy
all reasonable people.

by the London Notes, was entered into
between' Austria, Prussia, Russia and
Great Britain, at the time when the pros
pect of the speedy death of the French
Emperor was believed to be certain.
Napoleon, however, recovered, and Lord
Clarendon was commissioned to inform
the Emperor of the understanding be-'
tween the great powers and to explain
their motives. It is also announced that
Lord Clarendon will avail himself of the
opportunity to inform the Emperor that
he will not be allowed to divert attention
in France from his domestic policy, by
waging war against Prussia. Every ef
fort, it is believed, will .be made by- the
