GoLp_axp Gauenpacks.—Next to the
result of the campaign agninst: Richmond;
the great question is that of the currenty.—
Not a.man_in_wlt the loyal States, perhaps,
passes a day without neking himaelt_or his
Coat —In this Territory, says the Teisiexcifement—a short and stormy period duting which onl on the brain is fearfully
prevalent—a space of time black with coke
and swelling with gas! We have another of
those spells upon us—our periodical attack
1s coming on, and shortly we shall all become
thoroughly. carbonized. . Heretofore . our
attacks of coal fever have passed off without
‘any practical advantage or valuable results
to us; but if we may eredit the tremendous
rumors now afleat, we Lave struck it at last.
We were told yesterday of an immense stratum of coal having been uncovered horizontally for distence of one hundred feet, while
5. vertical shaft of great depth -had—fuiled-to
~“floighbor, whether gold is going up or down,
It is a question that concerns every person,
not only asa patriot, but as an individual .
having pecuniary interests invelved. Some
have greenbacks on band and are interested:
—tn-knowing whut isto result to their pockote by holding them. Others expect to be
obliged to take them by and by, and they
' ‘want to know the worst in time and be pre«
pared for it. Rt
We know there are a large niiinber in the
country who have purchased greenbacks
“ft higher prices than they-atpresent comi>}
mand, relying on the capture of Richmond
and other Federal syccesses, to raise the
“price of the Government paper. Others
have kept what they have been obliged to
take, for the same reason, All. would like
~ to know a little of the future that they may”
profit by it. .
We pretend to no knowledge of future
events, We don’t know that Grantwill
toke Richmond, though we feel very. confident of it. But, whether he does or not, we
are nut aniong those who believe that in case
of full success greeabacks will. rise.very exe
traordmarily in price, or be depressed to a
corresponding extent in the event of a fuilure. "The fact ia the importing merchants
of New York are owing between three and
four hundred millions in Eurepe for goods
~~ pliréhaved to-wuit the extravagant tastes of
dur peoplo, and tlikt amount must be paid
in gold. Merchants, to maintain their cred«
Feut through the Jayer. This great coal
deposit is on the Truckee river, somewhere
whom we held some conversation about the
vein assured us that it was “‘as thick as the
International Hotel is high.” That is plenty
thick enough. If the gentleman could cone
scientiously-have made it seven inches'thick:
er we should not have ashed him to do so
It is thick enough; all we ask is for itte
stay nsit isnow. Should it dwindle down
and shrink till not more than half as “thick
é@ the Titernational is high,” we should all
feel bad ; but it is well known that the climate
of Washoe bas” a thousand. times produced
precisely such effects on big things. We ean
only curse the-climaté and grin and bear it.

pained to snnounte the deathiof Henry D.
Cady, uf Grass Valiey, which took place in
that town yesterday afternoon, at 34 o’elock.
Mr. Cady was one-of the oldest citizens of
Grass Valley, and was universally known
throughout the county. He was-a generous, open-hearted man, and consequently had
hosts of friends. He was about 36 years of
age and was formerly.of New York.
THe Wasbington correspondent uf the
San Francisco Bulletin says: aan
When in a recent letter I gave the views
and arguments of Secretary Chase and ‘his

Which should issue United States circniating notes, but redeem them in coin, 1 had .

it, anust pay their debts, and they will do
sq at any enorifice. As greenbacks will not
be taken abroad, they must be sold for gold
and at any price the gold-holders @ mand.
This baa more to do with the yelative valuge of gold_and greenbacks than-the‘national debt, the relative situxtions of the contend“Xing forces, or the probable final issue.“Phe war has made thousands of men in
the North rich. Money is plenty in-all the
loyal Statet and business brisk. Prosperity
induces luxury, and money goes without
stint four costly tings from, foreign lands
that we could do without. Shoddy wants
diamonds, costly. furniture and equipage,
magnificent dresses, &c., and Shdddy will
have what she wante. And while there is
a demand for foreign goods, importations
will continue, though the cost may be five
times se much as at present, and the last
dollar. in coin be drained from the land to
pay the shot. Victories of arms will be
‘grateful to every patriot heart; but a greate
et victory, both for our country ond for ours
selves as individuals, would be that of con«
quering our taste for foreign luxuries. When
we cowe down to the resvlution to purchase
nothing but what is American, and to do all
we oan to make our country self-reliant
. nod eelfssupporting, we shall have achieved
a .triamph that will cause greenbacks to
rigo in value like mercuty in a thermometer
exposed to torrid heat. We are like the
Wagoner, stuck in the taud, who ealled on
Jupitet and eelied alone upon him for extricativth. We need not expect Gen. Grant to
do all there ie to be done. We have to put
vur oWh shoulders to the wheel, cut off
foreign supplies, and save the cost in hard
cain at home, In this way gold will be plenty
and enormous premiums will not have ‘to be
paid for it, because it will not be demanded
for ebipment There must be some -selfabnegation among onr wives and daughters
and ‘ourselves, or we. shall see greenbacks
going down -to thirty cents, and even lower,
before this war is over. The country cans
not etend its importations so largely in exvess of its exports. We had better open
ourveyes to this fact at once, and as we are
so patriotic and it 1s so popular to contrib»
ute to the Sanitary Fund, why not have it
equally ae popular to belong to a loyal league,
men, women, and children, iu which all shall
be pledged to purchase nothing but what is
American? A general movement of this
kind-would suon relieve the country of the
evils caused by the depreciation of ite currency, enatch millions from nations inimical to
our own in our great struggle for self: preaérvativa, and redound to our credit as well as
prosperity. Nothiog leas will do:
