Tlie Hold Problem.
- From the New York Commercial Bulletin.
Certain points connected with the fall
in the gold premium, require to be gener
ally understood, if the public are to avoid
much inconvenience and injury from these
fluctuations. While there can be no ques
tion that certain considerations connected
with the condition ot the national finances,
the position of the foreign exchanges, the
supply ot gold upon the market, etc.,
have naturally tended to depress the pre
mium, yet the fall has been mainly stimu
lated by artificial appliances of specula
tors, aided apparently by simultaneous
movements in Congress. The decline, al
so, has awakeued the sensational spirit of
the press; which, by exaggerated repre
sentations, nas produced a sort ot vague
notion in the public mind that we are
closely verging upon specie payments. A
. 'n i ai a
lew uays more win prooaDiy demonstrate,
by a reaction, that the fall in the premium
has much exceeded what is warranted by
legitimate causes, and the public may
then wonder that they could have been so
completely hoodwinked by a clique of
speculators.- There is much yet to be ac
complished before we.can reasohably con
template the early resumption of specie
payments; and as this preparatory work
has to be done, to some extent, by Con
gress, who are slow to comprehend even
the alphabet of finance, we fear the delay
may prove protracted certainly , it will
be longer than, with intelligent legislators,
it ought to be. Those who are hastily
sacrificing upon their securities as too
many unsophisticated investors :re and
who are hastily putting dwn-the priees:
of goods to a Bpecie basis, would do well
to hesitate for a time; and especially as
the tide, even now, ippcara , to be turn
ins. r

A few day ago the Hon. Jefferson Da--
I ids entered a store in this city and asked
the keeper, a quiet little man, if be could
match a ear-drop, which.he produced.
The shopkeeper told him, in his usual po
lite manner, that he had no odd pieces,
but that he had some cheap seta A the
same style, and took out a very bright set
which he offered for the sum of oae 4oi
W, and explained that it was a cheap i in -
itatiou, which Would sell, but that really
he would not recommend it as ot any per
manent use. Mr. Davis seemed surprised
;and told him he was no 'judge of jewelry,
and would not have been surprised, if the
price had been fifty dollars; and left the
cheap store, as it happened to be, without
purchasing. The shopkeeper taraed toa
bystander and inquired, ".Who is that old
gentleman ?n " Thatx sir JisJeff Davis."
Mr. Shopkeeper was amazed,, .and the
breath was clean but of him for inomeat.
" And that was Jefferson Davis ! You're
not fooling me no ? . He's a man. I always
reverenced and wanted to see ; and to
think that I wa9 offering to sell him' pinch
beck jewelry ! Jehosopbat T and he turn
ed himself almost wrong side out. "Well,
I must apologize to him for offering the
d n 6tuff." And out he went, and noon
was bowing and blushing and apolpgizipg

The Funding 1S1I1 Pass? it ia
. the Senate. ,
The Senate had a laborious session, to
day of eight and a half hours upon tite
founding bill, which finally passed! by
32 to 10.
At one time it seemed that Mr. Wilson1
amendment would pass, the sent ini'eat ap
pearing to be general in favor of the long
time features of that amendment Very
little of thorough study and practical
judgment as to the theory ,of long and
Fhort bonds was evinced by those who
took part in. the discussion. Senator Wil
son came nearest to stating the reasons
that govern capitalists in preferring long
bonds, but even he failed to give the main
consideration that determines investments
in long bonds.
It ia known that the tendency ot the.
rate of interest in a solid and well-established
Government is downward, and upon
this theory, thirty years hence say, a bond.
or the present any drawing five or four
and a-half per cent, .would, probably be
most desirable property, as three per cent,
will then possibly be the highest rate for
good investments in this country. . . -The
bill now goes to the House, and
will there be discussed even more at length
than it has been in the Senate, easce every
one ot the members appears to Jaave his
own peculiar iideas on . financial matters.
