Hon. II. j. Atkinson, Sd Auditor
Treasury, Washington City.-Dear
Sir: The embarrassment which
seem to have overtaken our state
treasury, have rendered it prudent
in the opinion OF the Commissioners
Of the Sinking Fund, to provide as
Tar as in their power, for any contin-
gency by which the prompt pay
ment Of the January interest may
be put in jeopardy; and to this end
they have resolved to convert the
whole amount (Sl06, ,200) OF United
States bonds, now in their possess
ion, into coin, on the advertised
terms Of Secretary Guthrie, &c."-
(The letter inclosed the $780, 200
United States stocks.)'
He here proposes to violate the
law creating the sinking fund, and
sell securities placed in his trust as
Fund Commissioner for the purchase
OF the state bonds OF 1856 at q prop
er time, to help pay 433, 1888 inter
est, when he had stated officially
that there was $O95,6s0 in the

Mr.. Atkinson knew something o
the hands into which the treasury
had fallen, and expressed himsel

Things i'll iOnica.

The recent rains throughout this region
have been great benefit to the corn, wheat,
potatoes, DC. A greater part OF the corn,
as Tar as ! have examined, is growing fine
ly, and, as a general thing stands well. 1t
depended, however, great deal upon the
size OF the corn when the frost took it
The largest is injured the most. and in
some instances is entirely killed, while the
smaller lis comparatively uEiniuied.
The Spring Wheat and Oats are not in
jiured much, but the Winter Wheat is
worthless. Potatoes, it is thought, win
grow again, but Sweet Potatoes, Beans, DC,
are killed dead, and most people have
planted over. Corn is as Il general thing
very weedy, and the farmers are busy tend
ing it, SO there is lot much grain coming
iito market, and trade generally is dull.

a roy biiet description OF Tonica
louica is pleasantly situated in the town
of Eden, upon the line of the Illinois
Central Railroad Is miles southwest Of
Ottawa, miles south of La Sale, and II
miles north OF Wenona The village con-
sists OF about So dwellings, II store houses,
and has 400 inhabitant. The streets are
laid out north and south, east and west.
The most of the business part of the vii
lage is on La Sale street. which fronts the
Railroad. Speaking of Railroads reminds
me of the Depot. 1t is 10 feet broad, 20
feet deep, with foot ceiling Every
one but themselves think the Company
should furnish better building, but as
they do not think so, nothing is accom-
plished 1t does certainly seem as though
they ought, as there is more Railroad bus
mess done here than at any station be-
tween La Sale and Bloomington We have
also good Warehouse, about the size of
the depot, but it is not SO nice as the COW
ering Is made of rough boards, whereas
the depot is covered with planned boards
and nicely white-washed There are two
good Churches here besides the one in the
course OF erection, which described in
my last. There is a pretty grove about
so rods south of the village, which covers
80 acres OF ground, and is for the most
part free from underbrush Here it isthat

To which should be added, that BY ''con
