WHEAT IN ENGLAND. MIR. James San
dcrson's report is not hopeful as to
wheat. He estimates the wheat yield at
20 bushels per acre, or s bushels less
than the average, S bushels less than last
year, 2 bushels less than in 1869, IA
bushels less than the great crop of 1868,
and about the same as 1867. He states
the actual yield in 1868 as 132,000,000
bushels in 1869, $4,000, 1000 bushels 4;
in 1870, 104,C00,00O bushels; and his
estimate for this year, ass"'aing that the
area of wheat will be G.. r that of
last year, is 100000 bushels.

1t will excite no less surprise than
qualification with those who have mourn
ed over the dcvastations of Paris to know
that after all the column of the Place
Vendomc suffered but little injury in its
overthrow by the Commune. NJ. Charles
GARNER, the architect Of the Opera
House, estimates the cost of its restora-
ton exactly rs it stood ut not more than
100000 francs, or $4,000. 1t seems
that ten only of two hundred and seven
ty-four bronze plates that made up the
exterior of The column have been injured.
and these require but slight repairs. A
few bars Of the balustr0dc and some
pieces of the capital have disappeared,
but can be readily replaced. NJ. GARNER
warmly advises that the statue of Napo-
leon should be regretted on the top of
the column, otherwise the whole monu-
ment is an historical and architectural
absurdity. 1t is to be hoped that it will
be the first and not the third Napoleon,
the little corporal in the overcoat and
cooked hat, that was taken down and
removed to Neuilly in 1863.

SPECTATORS IN HAR-Spealzing Of
the pjtroleuSeS of Paris, says a correspon-
dent, | am reminded of scandal which
will do to record with others which You
have exposed 1t is a known fact that
all women who are condemned by the
Magistrates for any kind of misdemeanor
for period Of one or two months, are
submitted to a mutilation which is Il
punishment to them a hundred times
greater than the Imprisonment. The
first act of the director of the prison
is to cut off the hair of such prisoners,
and it has just come to light that ever
since the 4th of Septemberlast the prison
directors have been traflicking in hair
thus obtained. I do not hear that one
of these wretches has been punished,
but the feeling was so strong when the
fact was made public that NJ Dufaure
ordered that all women condemned for
less than five years should preserve their
hair, and as for that of others it must be
burned in their presence.

AIone-the soul is dark.
No light TO show my saddened heart the
way to gIadneSs-
And the smart of one unkindly word, is
like to madness
Ranking in the breast.
Alone-the heart beats on
Yet not with tn accustomed ardor of the
other day..
Hope is dead-life itself grown tiresome
in these altered ways
Yet death comes not.
Alone-oh, dreary world.
Is there no place on earth where Friend
ship will unaltered be,
Unshaken by life's hardShips, till in
grand Eternity
We part no more?
Alone: No. not alone:
For will not all the happy recollections
still remain,
And mem'ry wake her harp-stringS into
one sweet. sad refrain,
Soothing my woe" Tom.

RULINGS AFFECTING COIN, LEGAL
TENDER AND GOLD NOTES.

The following rulings in relation
to copper coin as legal tender for
stamps, the non-liability of the
Treasury Department to pay for le-
gal tender notes of National Banks,
have been made by the United States
Treasurer
One and two cent coin are not re-
ceiyable in payments of more than
four cents for postage and revenue
stamps. Interest on compound in
terest notes issued by the Government
for three years ceased at their ma
turity. The Treasury Department
has been prepared at any time since
maturity to pay them.
Congress has conferred on the
Treasury Department no authority
to redeem legal tender notes totally
destroyed. Although Congress has
in some instances authorized the de-
partment to make payment for in
terest. bearing securities which has
been lost or totally destroyed no
such authority, either special or gen
eral has been conferred in cases Of
the loss or destruction of legal ten
der notes.
The gold notes of a national bank
are redeemable at the Treasury only
in case of its failure or liquidation.
Like National bank notes payable in
lawful money, the gold notes of ma
tional banks are redeemable at the
Treasury only in case of the failure
of bank OF its going into liquida-
ton. Gold notes of San Francisco
national banks are not redeemable in
New York. National banks must re-
ceive each others gold notes at par.
Under section of the Act of July
l.. 1870. the First National Bank OF
San Francisco in common with all
other gold national banks that may
be organized in the same city, is
specially exempted from providing
for the redemption in New York of
its notes. Under section t of the
same Act all national banks issuing
gold notes are required to receive at
par in the payment Of debts the
gold notes Of any other national
bank.
