Payable In Gold.

The following has been decided upon at a
Cabinet meeting. The letter was mailed
from the Treasury Department:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
WASHINGTON, June l, ls77.)
Francis o. French, Esq, New York:
Sir-Your letter of the 18th inst, in which
you inquire whether the 4 per cent. bonds
now being sold by the government are pay
able, principal and interest, in gold coin, is
received. The subject, from its Importance,
has demanded and received careful consid-
Grafton. Under the laws now in force,
there is no coin issued or issuable, in which
the principal of the 4 per cent. bonds
is redeemable or interest payable
except in gold coins of the United
States of the standard value fixed by the
lawsi in force on the 14th of July, 1870, when
the bonds were authorized. The govern
ment exacts in exchange for these bonds
payment at their face in such gold coin, and
it is not to be anticipated that any future
legislation of Congress, or any action OF any
/ department of the government, would sane
ton or tolerate the redemption OF tint
principal of these bonds or the payment o.
the interest thereon in coin of less value
than the coins authorized by the law at the
time of the issue Of the bonds, being the
coin exacted by the governmental exchange
for the same. The essential element of goot
faith in preserving the equality in value be
tween the coinage in which the government
receives and that in which i
pays these bonds, will be 50
credly observed by the government and tn
people of the United States, whatever ma,
be the system of coinage which the genera
policy of this nation may, at any time
adopt.
This principle is Impressed upon the tex
of the laws of July IA, 1870, under which tn
four per cent. bonds are issued, and requires
in the opinion of the Executive Department
of the government, the redemption of thes
bonds aud the payment of their interest i
coin of equal value with that which the goN
eminent receives upon their issue.
Very respectfully,
JOHN SHERMAN, Secretary.

Destructive Conformation.

A great fire is reported in st. Johns, New
Brunswick, on the Goth of June. The fire
commenced in McLaughlin's boiler shop,
at Portland. A strong northwesterly wind
was blowing, and in an incredibly short
space of tint the flames burst out, carrying
with them hundreds of houses, stores and
lumber yards. The fire spread rapidly
toward the business portion of st. Johns,
clearing in its career entire streets of build
ings. The fire swept Dock Street, Market
Square, the whole of Prince William Street,
Water Street, the south side and a part of
the north side of King Street, King Square,
and German, Canterbury, Princess, Duke,
Leinster, Charlotte, Orange Streets. The
whole of the Lower Cove District, Sydney,
and Carmarthen Streets, and portions of
Wentworth and Pitt Streets, in fact, the en-
tire city, south of King Street, including the
wharves and shipping, was destroyed.
Among the public buildings destroyed are
the new postofice, valued at $780, 600, the
Custom-house, Victoria Hotel, Academy of
Music, Dramatic Lyceum, Royal Hotel,
Bank of New Brunswick, Maritime Bank,
agencies of the Banks of Montreal and Nova
Scotia, Savings Bank, Victoria School-heuse,
Grammar School, Trinity Church, st. An.
drew's Church, Centenary Church, the Ger
man Methodist Church, the City Hall, the
Water Commissioners Office; the banking
houses of Simeon, Jones & Co., George
Phelps, Maceller & Co, the Western Unicn
Telegraph Office, the Daily Telegraph news
paper office, Ritchie's building and law
Offices.
All the Wholesale and nearly all the retail
houses were destroyed. The only bank
saved was the Bank of British North Amer.
lea. The Western Union Telegraph Office
saved their instruments and books. Several
schooners and larger vessels were burnt.
Rats laden with goods and household wares
readily caught the flames, and were con.
sumed. The fierce wind drove the flames to
the south and east, and destroyed every.
Five men and two infants are now known
to have lost their lives and many are miss.
ing. The loss is estimated at from $4,000.

UseftL Information,

The following method of removing in
delible ink and other silver stains,
without the use of cyanide of potassium,
is given by Grimm in the Polytechnisches
Notizblatt: Chloride of copper is first
applied to the tissue ; it is next washed
with hyposulphite of soda solution, and
afterwards with water. 1t is said that
this may be employed on colored woven
cotton tissues. For white cottons and
linens. dilute solutions of permanganate
of potash and h~ydrochloric acid, followed
by the hyposulphite of soda and clear
water, is preferable. For cleaning the
hands, we use iodine dissolved either in
iodide of potassium or in alcohol,
followed by aqua ammonia.
SHARPENING tools by a bath. A razor
recovers its edge if left for half an hour
n water which contains sulphuric OF
muriatic acid in the proportion of one
part by weight of acid to nineteen OF
water. The razor is carefully wiped on
being taken out of the acidulated bath,
and passed over an oil-stone. The acid
bath is said not to hurt the blade; on
the contrary, the quality of the metal in
some cases improves by the immersion.
So with scythes and sickles. The time
lost in the harvest field in the early
morning in sharpening scythes would
be spared by laying the blades for hall
an hour in a bath prepared as above de-
scribed. As soon as taken out of the
bath they should be wiped, and a sof
sandstone hone passed along would leave
a good and uniform edge behind it.
OFTEN in a fine orchard we find one o
more trees leaning v so far as to de
stroy the beauty of the whole orchard
It is also much more difficult to cultivate
around a leaning tree. This may easil!
be remedied while the trees are young
by partially digging up and %replantinl
the trees. The roots will be fount
smallest on the side from which the tire
leans; and, therefore, these roots shoul'
be loosened from the earth, the tree Sc
in a perpendicular position, and CAREFUL,
fastened by stakes and guys and tn
earth replaced around the roots. I
would be we'll to add some rich compos
to promote their growth. If as is yer.
probable, the top of the tree has becom
one-sided, it should be pruned SO as to re
store the balance. In this way we hay
"righted up" pear trees six inche
through the stem; but the best way
to look after the young trees and not pei
init them to depart from the way of W
riohtness.

The Gupsies Morning On.

Edward King writes to the Boston
Journal of the CONSERVATION which has
arisen among the inhabitants of Rou-
mania at the expectation that the Turks
will cross the Danube and commit the
same outrages that blackened their arm
in Servia last year. People are feeingin
all directions away from the banks of
the river. They are not content with a
short distance, but feel safe only when
they have crossed the frontier. Thou
sands of them are now pouring into
Austria. The poor, he says, may be seen
tramping along the muddy roads-a
whole family together, sometimes
perched in a shabby cart drawn by a
melancholy horse, and sometimes beg
ging passage for a few miles of some
slowly moving wagon train. The gypsies,
of whom there are as many a two hun
dred thousand in Roumania, are moving
also. Some of these gypsy trains are ex-
ceedingly comical. The women, with
their matted black hair, their dark, vel.
low faces, their queenly stride, and their
scant and tattered garments, marching
ahead and singing shrill songs in their
own jargon, which even Roumanian ma.
tives cannot understand, are strange fig.
ures. The father of the family follows
next, and is usually a dirty, offensive.
looking rascal, often ~bareheaded, but
sometimes capped with the Wallachian
he~ad-gear; his torn girdle is supplied
with a knife, and sometimes with a long
pistol he wears the opauke or cowhide
sandal, bound on the foot with innumer.
able thongs, which is so universally used
in Turkey.in-Europe for the rest he is
bundle of rags. Behind the father the
children follow, riding in a cart drawn
by a donkey, an old horse, or alarge dog
whose temper has been soured and whose
hair has all been rubbed of by continual
hardship and exposure. The gypsies hate
the Turks, and it will not be an easy task
to get them out of Austria.
