War•ofllce, July 20, 1861. M. DESIURDO.

A Dieppe paper informs us that an English-built
yacht, the Pea!, now belonging to a French gentle-
man, has come into that port, and is amusing the seaside
visitors by exhibiting a number of relics from the Alabama,
picked up after the action, of which the Pearl was in part
also a spectator. Among these objects saved is a curious
note book, bJanging to one of the seamen, and containing
doubtless for his own interests in the way of prize-money,
a complete list of all the vessels destroyed or captured by
the Alabama. The list begins on the 6th of September,
1862, and closes on the 27th of April, 1864 ; and, curiously
enough, enumerates just 65 captures, answering to the
number of Captain Sernmes'a chronometers. &yen vessels
aro named as renamed, 47 as burnt, and 10 as sold—and
the work of destruction is estimated at a million sterling.
THE HARVEST IN TIIE HOME COUNTIE3.—Haro
vest operations have now commenced in earnest in the coun-
ties of Middlesex, Berke, Bucks, and Surrey, and within
the next three weeks a great portion of the grain crop will
have fallen beneath the sickle. The dry weather which has
lately prevailed has hastened the ripening of the wheat.
which within the last two or three days has wonderfully
improved in appearance and quality, though in places it has
been much scorched by the sun. Some wheat has alread3
been cut, while a large quantity of rye is down, the latter
crop being extremely forward in the valley of the Thames.
Barley and oats, owing to the long-continued drought, are
very short in the straw, and aro ripening off fast, though
the yield is expected to be rather light. Peas have also suf-
fered greatly from the heat, and a crop below the average
must be the result. With regard to potatoes, though many
fields of the early varieties were almost destroyed by the
severe frosts which occurred late in the spring, no corn-
; plainte have as vet been heard of blight. The pastures are
sadly in need of ruin, and now present a parched and arid
appearance. The fruit crop is a good one, and the trees in
he market gardens are leaded with apples, Plums, c.
