To the Editor of the San Franciseo Coll—SIR: Few of our most inteliigent people seem to | have sny edequate knowledge of tie loss and waste of gold.

In the year 1881 Mr. Spofford, the librarian of Congress, made an exhsustive investiga- tion to mscertain the known vioduct of the gold mines of the worid from the earliest rec- ords down to ihe close of the year 1879, and sccording to the figures given by Rogersin “Scientific Money,” page 36, the eutire prodnct reached the enormous sum of £13- 068.374,000.
