TREASURY DEPARTMENT
OFFICE oFTHE SECRETARY.

OFFICE THE SECRETARY,
WASHINGTON, d. c., June g. 1891
. BY virtue of authority conferred by law upon
the Secretary OF the Treasury, notice is hereby
given that the principal and accrued interest OF
such OF the AZ per cent. bonds issued under the
acts OF July IL, 1870, and jan e, 1871, may be
outstanding on the second day OF Sept. 1891 will
be paid at the treasury OF the United States in
the city OF Washington, ID. c., on that day, and
that interest on said bonds will then cease. SuR-
ReStons have been made on the part of the
holders or some of these bonds of desire to ex-
It'd the payment thereof at the option
fthe United States at the rate Of or 2I per cent.
per annum, and the Secretary Of the Treasury
viii hereafter consider whether the acceptance
of such offers or any OF them will be profitable
20 the government, and in that event reserves
the right to except such bonds fr m his call.
CHAkLEs Foster. Secretary.
MATTER OF PRUDENCE.
1t is officially stated that the suggestion
as to the extension Of the ~ per cent. loan
added to the call made to-day is made more
as matter OF prudence than of necessity.
The treasury department, it is said, is
fully able TO pay all of the SOL, ,000, 900 AS
outstanding, but in view Of the uncertainty
OF future receipts and expenditures il is
judged better to take the side of safety.
The secretary not only believes that he has
ample means to defray all the expenses of
the government, but Is confident that he
will be able to retire q considerable
amount Of the public debt in addition
Co the $3.50, ,OOO, 900 already paid during the
present administration. Ono of the pur-
poses in suggesting an opportunity to extend
the maturing loan at nominal rate of in
terest is desire to avoid the enforced re-
tirement Of part or all of the $23. .0O0, 900
national bank circulation now secured y
the ~ bonds.
LESS MONEY IN CIRCULATION.
A statement prepared at the treasury de-
partment shows that there was a net de-
crease of $25, ,036.32 in circulation during
the month Of May, the principal part OF
which was $l6. 766, AGO Of gold certificates.
There was also decrease in the circulation
of gold coin, standard silver dollars,
silver certificates, United States notes
and national bank notes. The
only items Of increase were S494. .719 in sub
sidiary silver and 81, ,092, ,026 in treasury
notes. During the same period there was q
net decrease Of S14, ,714,723 in the money
and bullion in the treasury. There was q
decrease of S26, 794 in gold coin and
1904. .524 in subsidiary silver. There
was an increase Of "a, AIS, $3.50 in standard
silver dollars, SO ,S54, 12l in treasury notes,
81, l15,S72 in United States notes, 81, 1873, z30

Dainty Farming.

A Delightfully."- dainty kind of
farming, more elegantly aesthetic
than growing lilies in Bermuda, is
that of Mr.. Timothy Hopkins of
Menlo Park, California. In a grove
of giant oaks, Mr.. Hopkins has a FIVE.
acre patch of violets of the rarest and
most beautiful varieties double
blues, sky blue, and one variety
which is blue with a faint dot of red
on one of the petals. The viOlets are
planted in rows two feet apart, and
under the cool shade and in the leaf
mould soil they attain perfection.
For six months a year the grower
ships an average of fifty punches OF
violets daily to San Francisco, and
the returns are not far from the same
number of dallars.

When the marvellous Object~glass
in the great telescope Of the Lick
Observatory was completed, after a
long series of unsuccessful experi-
ments, it was concluded That's the
world had never seen its equal, and
would never see its superior. Now
comes the statement that the tense
unearthed by Layard at Nineveh is
greatly superior in its material,
which is rock crystal, and but little
inferior in its power. Along the
same line comes the announcement,
apparently well fortified, that the
recent startling operations in abdom-
inal antiseptic surgery, by which so
many lives are saved, were practiced
by surgeons more than two thousand
years ago. Is there really nothing
new in these days?
