The Department of State has been tnformed that the Congress of Venezuela has decreed an addi- tional duty of twenty per cent on the ordinary duties of the tariff of 1867 actually in force, to be paid cash on all goods imported fron the 30th day of April ultimo. Goods specified in the consular certi- fied invoices previous to that date will not pay the additional duty. An act of the same Congress dated the 15th of May, 1869, declares that all export duties shall be abolished and cease to be collected from the 1st of July, 1869. By the authority of Congress the Executive of Venezuela has exempted flour from the twenty per cent additional duty on imports im- posed by the decree above mentioned. New Issue of Greenbacks. Tn consequence of the spurious issue of the ten dollar greenbacks, or legal tender notes, Secretary Boutwell has concluded to have a new tissue of all denominations of greenbacks from one to the thou- sand dollar note. The plates for these notes are now being engraved at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. The designs are entirely new, and no likeness of any living man will be placed on any note. None of the former or present greenbacks were engraved or printed at the Treasury Depart- ment. The engraving, however, of the new issue and the printing of the faces and the seals of all the denominations will be performed in the Printing and Engraving Bureau, while the backs will be printed in New York. There will be every possible caution to prevent fraud, including the taking ot lead umpressions for electrotype plates.

Bing- bam, who arrived here yesterday, and who ‘s chairman of the House Judiciary Com- mittee, expresses himself as much surprised at the course pursued by Secretary Cox. It appears that Mr. Cox pledged himself to take no action on the claim uatil such time as Congress should settle the question one way or the other. In other words, he promised to postpone action until the next meeting of Congress, and gave the promise in writing. Notwithstanding this, however, he is accused of showing favor to the anti-McGarrahan claimants. Mr. Bingham declares he will bring this matter before his committee next session, produce Cox’s letter, and ventilate the whole subject. ‘The Government Printing Office.

The train reached Bricksburg after an hoar’s run through @ beautiful country and fine farms. ‘The news of the Lonny hed the ident had been known to the ple but a few hours before the arrived; their enthusiasm, however, was equal the occasion.

Mary, the stepaaughter (Miss Eitie Germon), who 1s sup 1 to be a model of pra- dence and economy, places certain funds which she holds in her own name at the disposal of her father, to meet the. clamorous demands of his creditors. But Mrs. Apax, whose bills have reached an alarming amount and can rocure no relief from her husband, induces her son Charies (Mr. B, f. Ringgold), who has just lost a large sum at the gaming table, to forge a check for the amount of Mary’s bonds, so that Mr. Apex finds that the check given him 18 worthiess, and Mary, who in the meantime has become acquainied with the loss of her money, is driven from home—she re- fusing to explain what has become of her money, as it would expose the guilt of her brother Charles (Mr, B.
