A NEW Adulteration of Bread, or rather
of Yeast, which becomes in the manufacture
a component Of bread, has been detected in
England. DR.. Letheby an eminent chem
ist, recently stated in court that, on max
ing an analysis of six samples, of about
300 pounds OF the yeast, it was found that
the proportion of pipe-clay in the dry yeast
ranged from % to sc per cent. DR.. Lethe-
by further said that ii appeared that 1,733
tons of yeast were annually imported into
Hull from Schiedam, and that the total i'm
portation of yeast from Holland into the
ports of Hull, London and Newcastle
amounts in value, every year. to about
fI77 600 sterling. Most, if not the whole
of the yeast was used in the preparation OF
bread and confectionery.

The VoTE OF PARIS" Malakott,"
the Pariss correspondent of the New York
Times, writes:
The vote of Paris the other day was in
teligent and logical. 1t did not mean,
certainly, an overturning of the Bonaparte
dynasty, but it had deeper meaning
than a mere manifestation of indepen-
dence it meant progress under the pres
ent dynasty it meant the browning of
the edifce y it meant more liberty, and
healthier and more economical admins
tration of the .nation's affairs. 1t was es-
pecially a triumph of the partisans of lib
eytg restored as against the partisans OF
liberty deferred.
The full returns of the vote Of the city
now show, in fact, that about ,hreef onrths
of the population stand registered against
the Government, and since there are
enough of Government employees to make
up the other fourth, Louis Napoleon and
his administration have the air, theoretic-
ally, at least, of being camped in the
midst ola population ofs which they form
no part, and which is even hostile to
them. This, it would seem, ought to be
the last drop in the bitter cup Of humllia-
tons,

DEPARTMENT OF rHE Sourh'- Inc
withdrawal of Gen. Hunter from Port
Royal will be regretted by many OF the
most truly loyal men of the North, HIS
administration of affairs in his last depart
ment, it Is true, has been comparatively
barren Of results--so far as positive
achievements are TO be considered. But
the bold stand taken by Gen. Hunter m
regard to the arming OF the blacks IN his
department shows sufficiently that his
heart is in "the cause,"--and we hope
soon to see him in another field where he
can carry out the principles he has Mag
srated at Port Royal.
OF Gen. Gilmore who succeeds Gen.
Hunter, the New York Times says:
Gen, Gilmore is an excellent young ofi'
Ger, who has q reputation as military
engineer second 10 that of no man in the
service. He has figured in siege opera
tons on the coast, and in the field opera
tisns in the West and from both spheres
of duty he brought with him the prestige
of success. He is native Of Ohio, which
has given us so many distinguished and
Victorious officers, such as Grant and Hose
Grams. He has now command OF de
+, uartment which is one of the most dlthcui'
in the country. Its duties are very severe
and complicated its extent is very grea
and his force very small 1t contains 1--WE
of the most important and most formldaPl
rebel slrougholds in the country ana II
has pitted against him the ablest enginee
in the rebel service. Besides these mlllta
nv difficulties, the social question OF IN
negroes is a very embarrassing one, an'
one which will guaranty him much lnsan
abuse. whatever course he may adopt 4
dealing with it. Gen. Gilmore, however
will do his duty unfinchingly, serve n
country faithfully, and follow ms orae
} and his conscience at every hazard ana
the face of every danger.

AFFAIRS AT VIcKsBURG.-The Boston
Journal of yesterday has a letter from
Chicago. an extract Of which says:
One Of our prominent men just from
Vicksburg, says we can burn the town IN
six hours With red hot shot il necessary,
out Grant is so confident that he can take
the whole coop that it will be bis last re
sort. A Lieut.. Colonel who was in Vicks-
burg iail was here, and reports that he
with others were in it when a huge shell
from the morters came through the roof,
exploding and killing about twenty-five
men. and blowing the building endway.
Gen. Grant saws he will defend himself
with $4,000 men from any attack Johns
ton can bring against him. He has made
Haine's Bluff impregnabie, and 1t is the
kew to Vicksbnrg and his base OF supplies
The secret of Grants success is partially
due to the fact that his generals, though
mostly Westpointers, work together; that
he has been heavily reinforced IS known

her troops have been drained 10 seni tt
him. We have reliable evidence thai

June 5, 1868, }
DEAR Thinking that the
friends al home would like TO hear Of what
is transporting at this place, ! write You
few lines.
Our regiment was raised from various
parts of the Union, but Co. +, Tor what
we call the Tigers was raised BY Capt
Bush, from Brandon. 1t is now COM
manded by Lieutenant Clark, who is a
daring officer, and worthy Of the place he
holds. He has led us in a number Of
battles, and has evinced great tact as an
officer. The last was at Vicksburg, the
bloodiest conflict We have yet participated
in. Our regiment lost one hundred and
ten men killed and wounded in one
charge. Out of fifteen commissioned Off
GERS in the battalion who went into the
charge, only four were left,-the rest
were either killed or wounded, and our
highest officer is Captain.
The Vermont boys are in good health,
and stand the hot weather the best OF any
IN the field.
We have been in line Of battle Tor nine
DAYS, and have made fifteen charges, and
captured four stands of celors. We are
in sight of the city, and expect to be in
there soon.
Our army are in good spirits, and not
discouraged, as Northern copperheads
would have you believe. We would like
to have them down here, that they nigh
see how we feel. We have hardshlps Il
endure, but we enlisted to put down TIM
rebellion, and are geing to do it, and the'
are going home to clean out-pohtlcally-
those cowardly copperheads, who are try
:, :. ing to throw obstacles in our way, an
d prolong the war.
Of trust they are not numerous IN Vel
Re mont, but what there are | hope will d
a, properly dealt with,
# get paper occasionally from hom
r. and am sorry to hear that some OF m
nc particular friends, who style themselV'
ne g Democrats are denouncing this war
ne unnecessary and unjust. They are eth
We traitors or towards, or they would n
a talk thus. Let them see what ha
Ct seen, and if they We're honest they "ou

as. picked out from unwillingness TO do du
ep- in camp, and in time of battle OF bel

'ss- could think of much more that

our battlefield Is not a very favorable place
and express ones thoughts, nor convene
