An exchange paper gives n rule ly which
those who have purchased United States FIVE
twenty bonds, since the LIST of May last, may
easily compute the value of the coupons pay
able in gold on the LIST of November coming.
For example, the thirty dollar coupon of
one thousand dollar bond bought on the LIST
of May-that is, one hundred and eighty-four
days from the LIST of NovGmber-wll be worth
its face Qhirty dollars on November LIST.
The same coupon, bought August lst-or
ninety-two days before November lst--will,
on this last named day, be worth just half its
face, or fifteen dollars. In single-rule Of
three phraseoogy-as the whole number of
days Gone hundred and eIghty-tour) between
May LIST and November LIST is to the number
of days the coupon (when purchased had 10
run, so is thesum on the face OF the coupon to
the sum due Gin god) on it, November LIST.
In the above example,
IS4 :92;: 3O:I5.
There is, however, some danger of error in
counting the days. The coupon of bond
bought October 3lst has clearly one day to
run; therefore, had the bond been bought
September LIST the time of the coupon would
be sixty-one days. and, mad the purchase
been made June 18th, the time would be one
hundred and forty. two days, SC, &c.
There is shorter way for the coupons
dated before August lst;-Compute them, as
if payable August lst and add one-half the
face of the coupon to what would be due Au-
gust lst.
Whether the government computation is to
be made in this way or not, the equitable re-
suit is surely and easily arrived at by the
above simple rule.

ICE IN CAMP.

1863. TO say that it is warm in this latitude
would hardly convey to the mind Of the reader
the temperature of the atmosphere where the

lively hot-sWeltering hot; and yet the men do

the latter have is few Of the cooling luxuros

we have reasonable supply of ice. Mr.. ke-

using the valuable commodity and it is real
luxury.

A Mammoth Bakery at Alexandria Va,
Correspondence of the Philadelphia

f mammoth BAKERY al aAe4anoIAa 9a1
Correspondence of the Philadelphia ItQuirerl
During my rambles to-day stopped into the
Government Bakery, short distance out Of
Alexandra, which is managed by Capt. A. B,
Mott, of Wyoming county, Pa, attached to
the Commissary Department. The bakery, a
one story frame building, with it's appurtenan-
ces, covers little more than an acre OF ground.
About two hundred men ale constantly employ
ed, tWelty ovens are IN operation, aud between
four hundred and five hundred barrels Of -four
are daily converted into good, wholesome bread,
which is furnished to the Army OF the Poto-
mac and hospitals and garrlsons around Alex
andria. Five hundred barrels Of -four will turn
out ninety thousand leaves OF ratlons OF bread,
twenty-five ounces to the loaf. The yeast IS
made at the bakery from potatoes, malt and
hops; the bread turned out is OF the best quail
tv, there being no deleterious substance worked
II.
According to the army regulations, each sol
der IS entitled to twenty-five ounces OF bread
or -four daily, but by the Government doing
the baking for It's own troops, q great saving IS
effected in the difference between bread and
and houe and the soldiers, who invariably pre-
fer soft bread Ia hard tack or -four, are
greatly benefited thereby. The saving in
the month Of June alone Was 3l7I bar
rels of -four to the Government, IN the
difference between bread aQd -four, and the
gain in four months has been sufficient to pay
all expenses of erecting and supplying the ba-
kerry, $23, 0O0 and net surplus OF $1,000 to 5000
in addition. Gas has been introduced through
out the building, and into the ovens, SO chat
the bakers can see that the bread is not oyerdone
or not baked enough. The water is also intro
duced, and six hundred feet Ct hose kept on
hand to guard against fire. The railroad pass
SEES ~ the side Of the main building, where
-four is delivered from the ears into the ware
house, and the bread is taken directly into tie
cars and sent to the Army Of the Potomac,
who thus receive fresh bread every day.
Some of the bakers are Workmen from Eu
rope, and they assert that there is no bakery
of this magnitude in the old country, and it IS
believed to be the largest establishment of the
kind in the world The highest issue of
bread in one day from this bakery was 1l4,-
$50 loaves, in February last. During the
month of July ouly $50, 900 oaves were issued,
the Army of the Potomac being mostly on the
march and subsisting on hard tack, but
since It's return to the Rappahannock the bak
cry has been worked nearly to it's full capacity
to supply the army.
Capt. Mott is assisted by Mr.. Zephaniah
Jones, of Washington city, superintendent,
who was formerly in charge Of the Capitol
extension, and who was also superintendent of
the bakery in the Capitol building year or
two ago
