An INTERESTING SCENE.—The Secretary of the ‘Treasury having ordered the destruction of the plates, dies, &c., frem which the currency bas heretofore been printed in the Treasury build- ing, the work was commenced about ten days ago, when all the electrotype end stereotype and copper plates were melted down in the Treasury building. The steel pilates, however ‘were too much (to use the phrase,) for the Treasury furnaces, so the committee appointed by the Secretary of Treasury to superintend the affair, concluded te remove them to the Navy Yard, there to be melted dowa. The Plates thus destroyed have printed over eight billions of dollars. The committee having the matter in charge ‘were as follows: Senator Thayer, of Nebraska, and ex-Congressman G. A.

Each box was securely tastened with iron bands,and bore three seals, each respect- ively of the Treasurer and Register of the ‘Treasury, and Jay Uooke & Co., bankers. The committee naving in charge the boxes, which were contained in four wagons, arrived atthe Navy Yard at 11 o’clock, and proceeded direct to the iron foundry, wnere the master mechanicin eburge, Mr. Wm.

The boxes were them, 1m presence of the committee and some of the officers of the yard, who afforded every facility, unloaded, on Qeelevator, dnd thrown into the fu unbroken, & strict tally being kept all the while by a2 member of the committees. Tne forty boxes were all put into the farnace by half-past twelve o’clock, when the doors were cloned and the draft.turned on.
