EXPLORATION OF SILVER Com

ExPoRrATIoN OF SILVER Com
FROM FRANcr.--It appears. from an
official return made to the Governor Of
the Bank of France, that an unusual
~ large amount of silver is being ex-
ported, and that it has become q regu-
lar trade-fve franc pieces being quo.
ted at various rates, according to cir
cumstances, like any other article of
merchandise. According to the re-
turn above mentioned, the present price
Of 200 five franc pieces Of the coinage
of Charles X is 1910 francs; 200 five
franc pieces Of the reigns Of Louis
XVIII and Napoleon | are worth 1920
francs, and the same amount Of the
coinage of the present Emperor brings
1905 francs. Hence it appears that
the five-franc piece has real value Of
from three to ten centimes more than
its nominal value. These facts are
represented to have occasioned con-
siderable alarm in commercial cir
cles. ". y. Journal Of Commerce.

ONE-TENTp OF A SECOND FROM
DEArH.-It will be remembered that
the Rev. Mr.. Sellwood, Of the Episco-
pal Church, missionary to Oregon, was
in the Panama massacre, and reported
among the dead In letter just re.
ceived from him, he says that he re-
ceived four wounds, and is disfgured
for life. His narrow escape from death
is thus described:
After | had recovered, and previous
to leaving the hospital, one of my med
ical attendants said to me II look up
on your escape as miracle; the ball
passed SO near the heart, that it must
have passed at the instant of its CON
traction, for had it passed at its ex-
pansion, you must have been killed -
Just the one tenth Of d second made
all the difference in your case between
life and death.

THE CElNEsE. Sir John Bowring,
in a letter to the Registrar General Of
England, expresses his belief that the
official census Of China, made upwards
of forty years ago, does not overstatc
the population at 362,4l7,1S5 souls.
These people are none Of them vese-
tarlans They cat any and eycry-
thing, and have 10 objection to fish
or flesh that is rotten. Milk they re-
puliate, whether in its primitive state,
or converted into whey or butter.
Muldtules perish by storm ,pestilence,
famine, and the exccutioner. No>
where is life less sacred. lnfanricide is
common, and the bodies Of dead in>
ian;s are thrown by their parents into
any hole or pool.
