HOW TO ODTAIN THEM IN EXCHANGE FOR MUTI- TILATED ONES. Wasmvorox, D. C., Juno 27.—As stated in these dispatches last night, the new Currency bill, which makes Treasurer Spinoer the solo agent in the United States for the redemption of National Bank notes, will have a beneficial ro- suit in giving the country a new issue of those notes, in place of the torn and dirty ones now in circulation. Itis well kmown that for all moneys due tothe United States, except customs duties, National Bank notes are ro- ceivable the same as the Treasury notes. The new bill provides that all notes worn, defaced, mu- tilated, or otberwise unfit for circalation, when’ received by any Assistant Treasurer, or st any designated depository of the United States, shall be forwarded to the Treasiry for redemption. Treasurer Spiuner, on receipt of such motes, will redeem them if sent in sams of $1.000, or any maultiple thercof. The sender will receive now notes of the Unites States, and those torn, de- faced, or otherwise unfit, will be sent to the Comptroller, who will return ewls-printed notes to the banks to which they belong when the amoaat has reached $500, and the bank has dellxoulbed the amount in United States notes to redeem them. Ir the bank fails to so depouit, the amount is charged against the 5 per cent already on deposit, and its notes are retired to that amount. Gen. Spinner takes the ground that private parties and corporations are ountitled to the advantage of this provision, and may send National Bank ootes in sums of 31,000 or its multiple, 08 provided above. As the law re- quires the Natiopal banks to bear the expense of tho redeinption, parties may send by express and have the amount returned free of expense to themselves. The following are the es adopted by the Treasurer for sending notes for redemption: The packages must be put up 1n boxcs or in wrappers of stout paper or cloth, tied with strong twine, secured by careful seal- ing, and plainly marked on tho outside with tho smount and nature of tbe _contents, the full mnamo end Post-Office ad- dress of the copsignor, and the fact that they are forwarded under the Govern- ernment contrect with the Adams Express Com- pany, thus : ** — dollars, United States notes, uuder contract with the United States Express Cempany, Treasurer of tbe United Stztes, Wash- ington, . C., from —." Give full name and address. A letter of advice, written on not laes than half a sheet of commercial pager, must be put inside the package, and a duplicated letter should bo sent by mail to the Treasurer on the day that tho remittance is forwarded, and the lottors should state the purposes of the romittances. ~The _Government contract with the Adams Express Company ex- tends to and includes sl points within the United Status accessible through es- tabliched express lines, reached by continuons railway connection, but does mot extend'ivest- ward beyond Omaba and Nebraska City, in Ne- ‘braska, and Acchison and Leavenworth, in Kan- sas, now includes the Lpes of Wells, Fargo & Co. in Missouri and Iowa. The coutract covers the lines of the following expresa com) panies : Adams, American, Merchants' Union, Central, Earl, Eastern, Harnden, Hope, Howard, Na- tional, New Jersey, Southera Union, United States, and United States & Capads. It wil make no difference whother the notes are all of one bonk, or a8 many different ones as thera ara dollars in the package. e NOTES AND NEWS. Bpecial Drpatch to The Chicaan Tribune. WILL NOT ACCEFT A HOKSE AND CABRIAGE. ‘WasnmygTon, D. C., June 27.—Secretary Bris- tow has just boen guilty of anothor extraordi- nary piece of business. He has refused to accept 2 pair of horses and a carriago for his wife, ten- dered by s personal friend. It is feared, if ho continues to ruthlesaly violate precodents eet by such eminent persons as the President and the lamented Richardson, his lease of officinl life will be limited. TIE UNPAID TEACHERS. The first act performed by the Joint Investi- gating Committes was to make inquiry as to the causes which prevented the school-teachers of the District from receiving their ealaries. It was learned that in many instances they were living on the bounty of their friends for & whole year without being able to collect & cent of their pay. ‘The committee findiug that the taxes ocllected for &eboo] purposea had been diverted from thoir legitimate use and paid to ring contractors, rec- ommonds an appropriation by Congress to re- imburee the teachers for their gorvices. In ac- cordance with this recommendation s bill was paseed by both Houges in March, appropriating 293,000 for that purpose. The money thus gen- cronsly loaned to the District was turned over to the Trustoes of the several achool districts for distribution. It would seem, however, that in overy_instance the eacred trust imp the Trustees was not houestly observed ; were good reasons for believing that an nnipir advantage was taken of some of the cotored teachers. 1tis alleged that tho teachers of some of the colored schools were compelled to accept Districtcertificates, worth only 60 cents on :hie dollar, and thresteced that o refusal would result in their gesting nothing atall. The mat- ter will be lnid before the new Board of Com- missioners when organized. WIITELY TO LESIGN. There are good reasons for stating that Col. ‘Whitely, whose connection with the recent bogus gafe burglary has thrown so much discredit upon the Goverpment Secret Service, will offer his resiguation as Chief of the Bureau to the Secre- tary of the Treasury within & day or two. Tho rad:ance of bis guilt is too conciusive to warraut him in attempting s succesuful defense. REVENUE RECEIPTS.

Cattell and Deunison have not yot i formed the President whether thev will accept or declive their appomntments of Commissioners for the Districz of Columbia, and Mr. Blow desires, before he gives an answer, to be furmished with copy of the act providing for the temporary government, and to be informed whether the duties of the Commisa:oners will require five or six months’ residence in Waahington. His ac- ceptance thus depends on business arrangements. ACCEPTS.

What Was Said at the Plymonth Council on Friday Last, Mr. Beecher Advised to Make a Full Confession. He Hesii:ates, Not Des;iring to Wound the Feeling of Other Parties. But Finally Concludes to Give the Matter a Week’s Serious Consideration. ‘Nzw Yong, June 27.—At the consultation on. Titton's letter, lnst evening, by the- Hev. Henry }Vnd Beecher and several friends, Mr. Beecher is reported to have said that personally he was opposea to saying anything publicly in roply to Tilton's charges. He believed the only effect of utterance would be to prolong the discussion of the case, while, if silenco was preserved, tha end would be speedily rosched. He assured the E gentlemon that his bearing toward the silent policy was in no way caused by any fear of consequences to himeelf by discussion. Uiy desire was simply to get out of the difficalty with as little injuryto others as possiole. Ho kuew by speakiug lis could end the matter so far a8 he was rersonally concerned, but he also tbought that continued silenco on his part wounld snorily have the eame effect, and, ontertaining. that opinion ho covld ses nothing to be gnined by any demonstration. TROF. RAYMOND, admired tho forbearance Mr. Beocher had all along exhibited in this matter, and was sure the congregation did the eame, but he thought it questionable whether forbearance had not now ceased to be a virtue. It wns, ho knew, a Chris- uan duty to be magnanimous, but the question in his mind was whether pusilanimity and mag- Danimity were convertibie terms in L{u‘u connec= tion, MB. SHEABMAN, lawyer and clerk of the church, said that if it Were necossary Lo say anything in reply to Tilton it could be raid very oriely. T whole mattes was involved 1 an apofogetic letter, and he thought all that wae neces: was to show, ag could be easily done, that the lotter cited by Tilton was never written by dir. Beecher, and that nothing resembling it exists. 0. BEECER then remarked that they would all be In a betiex condition to determing what ought to bo dono a week hence, and, sinco he saw no immediata necessity for action, Lio thought it would be just as well to give the question » week’s calm con- sideration before determiniug anything.

Carpenter says: *‘ A few.days after the adjournment of the Council I had occasion to call mpon Beecher at his house in connection with a matter wholly disconnecied from this scandal. In the courss of some friendly conversation, I mentioned the {act to Beecher that Tilton bad just fimshed his book, ou whicl he had been engagod fora_year. I added that the excitoment of tho Council had depressed him conuiderably, and that I, in com- mon with several of his friends, mished he could xo to Europe. Beecher said he thought it would be nn excollent thing for him to do. 1In reply to 2 remark that recent Lusiness embarrassments #tood in the way, Beecher answered that 1f Til- tun desired to go means would be providad. I did pot understand from avything ssid by DBeecber that he mado this proposition in order to secure Mr. Tilton's silence in regard to the gcandal. The matter only came up incidentaliy. I bad not gone to speak to Beecher on this unl ject, and he could bardly have expectod that I wounld bring it up. Itold Tilton what Beechor had said, and it onraged - him greatly, slthough it wag 2 long time afcersard thatI learned o had written to Beecher about the thing.” . ‘Y. M. C.
