to make about the planting OF

profusion OF. trees and shrubbery. And
while ornamental, relieving the business
monotony of the city, the shade at the same

man to plant half dozen shade trees In his

SO plant we the apple tree.

OCR NATIONAL FISASCES.-The following
letter has been addressed by the Secretary Of
the Treasury to a bank officer, under date Of
May 18th:
Sir: Your letter of the 18th inst, making
inquiries in regard to the kind of currency
with which the hve-twenty years SIX per cent.
and the the three years seyen-thirty per cent.
notes are to be redeemed, has been received.
1t has been the constant use Of the Depart
ment to redeem all coupon and registered
bonds, forming part of the funded or per-
manent debt of the United States, in coin /;
and this usage has not been departed from
during my administration of its affairs. All
treasury notes and other obligations, forming
4 part of the temporary loan, are payable,
and will be redeemed in lawful money; that
is to say, in United States notes, until after
resumption of specie payments, when they
also will doubtless be redeemed in coin or
equivalent notes. The fve-twenty skies be-
ing payable twenty years from date, though
redeemable after FIVE years, are considered as
belonging to the funded or permanent debt /;
and so also are the twenty years skies, into
which the three years seven-thirty notes are
convertible. These bonds, therefore, accord
ing to the usage Of the Government. are pay
able in coin. The three years seyen-thirty
treasury notes are a part Of the temporary
loan, and will be paid in United States notes,
unless the holders prefer conversion to pay
men,. Very respectfully,
S. P. CHASE,
Secretary of the Treasury.
