The currency disbursements at the Treasury yesterdas amounted to about $200,000. Fifty thousand standard silvor dollars were recelved at the Sub-Treasury yesterday from San Francisco, ‘The revenuo recelpls yesterday were as fol- lows: 8pleite, $27,618; cigars, §1,182; tobacco, 22,604 beer, 81,702 ‘The Collector of this Port commenced to re- celve greenbacks for datics yesterday, and no great change was observahle. 2 Fcrty sales of 4-per-cent bonds were made at tho Buh-Treasury yesterday, amounting to $14,+ 800, They werc nll paid for fn preenbacks.

He will be compelled to send his upon having gold. notes over to the Custom-Housn yesterday which o wanted redeemed In gold.” He will not do this ngain unless he wants to ret him- scif disliked. Greenbacks will pay dutiea now, but National-bank notes will not, and 1f a man wants to get anything redeemed for gold he will have to send to New York. The S8ub-Treasurer vesterday reccived a dis- pateh from the Eecrctary of the Treasury re- stricting the exchange of silver dollars to United States notes, His greenback account stands: United States notes on hana, 83,550,000, But therd is outatanding amainst thisaccount £1,260, 000 in certliicates of deposit liel:1 by thae banks, lenvine the net assete in United States notes at 2,200,000, In reply to a question as to the effect of re- sumption on Chicago subscriotions to the 4 per cents, Sub-Treasurer Gilbert sald: “Up to date the Department allowed subscribers & com- mission of one-fourth of 1 por cent, and for some time past that just balanced the premium in Chicago on guld, "Now subacriptions can bo made in greenbncke, and no cominlssion is al- lowed on sums less than $100,000, 5o thet prac- "tically the cost of bonds hicre 1s tho same now that It was for some time prior to resumption, but the greater convenience of the preseat sya- tem will probably increase tho subscriotions, ! It was reported tn Collcctor 8mith's: offico yesterday thnt over $0,000,000 of 4 per cent Government bonds were sold resterday in New York, and thers was considerable discusston in- dulged in upon the topic, somo taking the ground that the circumstance of such o rush arrued n bad state of affalrs fioancialty, and a lack of conlidence In tho busincss mstitutions of the country, and others taking tho oppusite po- sition, The causc of the immenso sales fn 4 per centa was that vesterdny was the first da that greenbacks have been recetved for these bonds, and most likely they wero taken mora for tho sake of depositiog carnings with the Government in lieu of savings banks; or. the salea mav have involved tho transactions of scveral large bank- ing houses In the East. It has also been ox- tremely difticult for capitallsts to loan monuy upon good sccurity and reapany returns for ft for somo time back, and they may have thotght that 4 per cent clear, with "no trouble 1 the way of coltections, was better than a greater rote with attending annoyances. There are many reasons which tnight bo aseigned besides that of a lack of contidenco In the busluess of the country. CRIMINAL. Thieves broke a window in K. ifexter's com- misslon-honse, No. 49 Market street, late Wednesday evening, but were scared off before sccuring sanything. < Some maliclous person who had made too many calls smashed a large plate window in the cigar and llquor store at No. 172 Washington street. 1t did not mppear that anytbing was token, The West Twelfth stroet polico arrested late Weanesday night o soung fellow named Alex- onder McKenzlo, who has served one term Iu the Penitentlary, and who is wanted for an as- sault with intent to rob Miss Jenulo Bchaffner, while ehe was tending bar fo her father’s loon, at No, 818 West Polk strcot, on the even- ine of Dev. 0.

It has befn found, howover, that frequent interval doses of the drug had an Injurlous effect on the intestinal canal and gradually undermined the system, Of late yrars physicians have nearly abandoned the practico of admin- istwing morphine by fnternal doses, and have adopted. instead, the use of s mcedle. pointed syringe, by which small doses of the drug are injected under tho skin. The effect of the drug administered fn this way 1s much oulcker, and smaller dosea are required. The use of the morphia syringe was contined to medical experts for a time, asit was bolicved to be attended with unusuul dangers in unskllful hands. It has become a practice with soma physiclans, however, to teach thelr patients how to sdminister morphia injections, and it is not surprising that many persons who have expe- rienced tho delightful effects of the drug (o timo of sickness should use the {ostrument to banish imaglnary suflerings, Beveral proml- nent physicians of this clty were visited by a Tr.bune reporter recently, und thelr statements showed that the viclous habit Is spreading to an alarming axtent.
