Wheat.

New York, 26 The Commercial
BwLLettt makes careful estimate On the
basis of the figures furnished yesterday
by the department of agriculture in
Washington, in regard 10 the acreage snd
yield of wheas per acre in each OF the
states this year. and concludes the total
harvest of the country to be 3Sl, AGO, 000
bushels Of wheat, against 451, 100000 in
'79, and by a revised estimate it shows
that the wheat crop of 1881 falls LII, 1907
GEO bushels below that of last year.
From these figures must be deducted the
increase of old wheat carried into the new
crop this year over tie same item for last
year. On the other hand, allowance
must be made in estimating the expert
able surplus for increased home require
nents, arising from the natural growth
of the population and the unprecedented
emigration, much Of which has settled IN
the wheat growing regions.

MacVeagh Needed.

Washington, 25.-The President has
again asked MacVesgh to remain be-
cause he warmly admires him, or because
he desired to disarm criticisms in the star
route matters. MacVesgh is said to
have offended the other secretaries by his
frank avowal that the President had the
right to chose his own advisers. Mac.
Veagh says though the star route prose-
cution may fail, it will not be from lack
of great rascality. There would be evil
dence enough to send dozen men to the
peRitentiary, but the whole moral weight
of the administration was necessary to
secure conviction. The accused have
plenty of money and backing, social and
political and the press. Juries are in
clined to lean towards the accused in this
district. The President fully under.
stands the matter, and he hoped he would
fulfill the highest expectations OF his
friends.

Lafayette's Bravery ut yorktown.
The personal bravery Of Lafayette is fifty
illustrated in the following extract from a
forthcoming publication by the Rev. A.
B.. nuzzey of Cambridge:
"In the great struggle at Yorktown in
the early part Of October. 1871, the British
were masters Of no external works except
two large redoubts; these Washington de-
termined to take. Lafayette, at the head
of the American Light Infantry, was or
dered to attack the redoubt on the left OF
the besieged troops. He thought nothing
but a bold and rapid onset would enable
young soldiers like his to carry intrench-
ments defended by disciplined troops. He
ordered the whole OF his division at the
word OF command to fire, and formed his
men in solid column; he then headed them
himself, charged sword in hand through
the mound, in the face of the enemy's fire,
forced his way into the redoubt and in a
few minutes carried it with the loss Of
only a handful OF men. After q five days
contest, in which Washington fired the
first gun himself, CORVALLIS on the 18th
Of October demanded a parley, and or the
10Th surrendered his army, and " the
presence of Generals Rochambeau and
Lafayette his sword was delivered to
Washington. 1t is a singular coincidence
that in 1924, 43 years after this battle,
Lafayette was in Yorktown and stopped at
the very house then occupied by Corn
wallis, and the rooms were lighted by q
remnant of the candles once used by Corn
wallis.'
