NAPOLEON,S POLICY.

From some late European items, we
notice that Napoleon is making some
innovations in war.which are probably
original with himself. Not wishing
to have the cares and burden Of the
wounded Austrians which he had taken,
instead Of holding them as prisoners he
sent them back to the Austrian camp
without the usual parole. This is en-
tirely original with him, and must be
ack nowledged as magnanimous.
Two French grenadiers, who had
been found guilty of forcibly entering
wine shop, and literally helping
themselves to the juice Of the grape,
we're Immediately discharged from the
ranks. Napoleon considered that the
most severe penalty he could infict
would be to deprive them of the OPP
portunitles of sharing with him the
glories of the campaign. Such punish
ment is surely more sensible than the
old mode, and it is undoubtedly more
keenly felt. A true soldier looks upon
disgrace with greater fear than he does
death itself.

THE CROPS. t.

Through the politeness of Col. Magill,
Of the LcClaire House, we are permit
ted to copy from letter received from
Col. Grouse, late Of this place, some ex-
tracts in reference to the crops Ohio and
Pennsylvania. Mr.. Grouse says:
II passed through Ohio and had .
fine chance to see the grain crops. In
many places all the wheat and rye is
entirely killed. In other places such
is not the case. ! am confident from
what l have seen and heard, that Ohio
will give about two-thirds Of q crop,
and Pennsylvania about the same; and
10 districts where the frost has des.
troyed all the grain, the farmers are
putting in Buckwhest. There is but
little damage done in Eastern Penn
sylvania. The greatest destruction lis
with gardens and fruit, which 10 very
much injured still there will be more
fruit than there was last year. In this
part OF the county, and in Summit Co.,
all the wheat, rye and corn was killed.
The farmers thinking that such was
the case all through the county, came
to Johnstown, and brought up all the
flour in one day at $lO,5o per barrel
Since then flour has fell to 80, and it
is fact that some of tho old farmers
have bought enough -four at the above
figures to last them until after the har,.
vest in 1860, such was the excitement
of the frost.
l tell them that Iowa can fill all
their barns and have millions to sell to
other States if nothing happens to the
crop. From the amount Of buckwheat
put in, think it will be worth from
IS cents to 81 per 100 weight.

The Chicago Press d. Tribune of
Saturday contains the following notice
Of some Of the bogus Minnesota banks:
The Exchange Bank, Glencoe, the
Chisago County Bank, the Bank of
Rochester, the Bank of Owatonna, the
Fillmore County Bank, and the Peo-
Piles Bank, st. Peter, are all based up
on Minnesota per cent. bonds of the
railroad loan issue. 1t is the bills of
these last named banks that have been
thrown out by the brokers of St.
Paul, and since that event have been
refused by all classes Of people. A hat
full OF them would not purchase a
nights lodging at hotel, or buy a
pound of coffee or a peck of potatoes.
They are a. worthless, even in Mime
sota, as 80 much waste paper.
The Exchange Bank at Glencoe,
and the Chissgo County Bank have
both gone to protest. 1t is probable
that within the next week the whole
batch Of railroad banks, as they arc
styled IN Minnesota, will be in the
same category. Unless the men who
stand behind this currency and who
have expected to realized fortunes out
of it, make immediate arrangements to
gslvanize so much life into it az will
again give it a place in tho channels Of
circulation, there is no resource that We
know OF but to wind up the banks un-
der the law. This will afford an oppor-
tunlty Of ascertaining the true market
value of the bonds on which their
issues are based, and may possibly
open the eyes of the people Of Mime
sofa to the mistaken policy under
which they loaned the credit of their
state to the railroad companies. A
at present advised, we doubt If these
bonds will realize ten cents on the dol
lar in New York. 1t is quite probable
they will find no market At iii. Had
not the crash come just at the time Il
did, the amount Of this description Of
currency would now be much greater
since it is understood that a number Of
ether banks have been organized and
were just ready to put their issues
afloat,
