Treasury RenOrt.

WASHINGTON, June 20.-It appears from
a letter of the Secretary of the Treasury,
addressed to the House of Representatives
in reply to a resolution from that body, that
since the LIST of January S150,000 in ten-forty
bonds were purchased at rates varying from
90! to 924, or in the aggregate for 81 All, 537.
Those bonds which have been cancelled
may be regarded as purchased on account
of the sinking fund or as a redemption
of so much public debt. The bonds
sold since January last were So, 1884,
900 for 700 were exchanged for seven
thirty notes $23 461 $50. In addition to
these, 7,947 and a small amount of
certificates of Indebtedness, previous to
the LIST of January, the notes and certificates
being received by the Department at the
time the bonds were delivered, but for lack
Of time to make necessary calculation of in
terest, and proper entries upon the books,
the account of the of the agent was not set
tied, and the amount of the bonds delivered
and notes of exchange was not entered upon
the public debt until February, and did not
appear in the published statement until the
LIST of March. 1t is also proper to remark
that So, 747 900 in $40 bonds, S3,717, 900 of
which were issued under the act of March
Sd, 1864, and which, by schedule, appears to
have been sold in January and February,

CEruSAL CoURT-STATE as. GEORGE
PRATT, CHARGE OF RAPE.-This cause,
which has been determined against the de-
PENDANT by jury and motion for new
trial made and argued, was finally disposed
Of yesterday by Judge FRAZIER, in an opin-
ion which did credit to his head and heart.
The motion for new trial was based upon
the supposed misconduct of juror, and
upon the insuficiency Of the testimony.
The opinion was characterized by close
releeiion, compact thought, great learning,
and infcxiblc impartiality. \ deep tone Of
moral and just sentiment pervaded the en-
entire opinion and his animadversions
upon the vice and immortality which
seeks 10 sacrifice innocent and helpless fe-
males to their Internal lust were severe in
deed. His premises were fairly taken and
stated, and the conclusions inevitably fol-
lowed his reasoning.
The immense crowd which filled the
court room was held in breathless interest
and attention from the commencement to
the conclusion of the opinion. We heard
many lawyers of age and experience say
that it was the ablest opinion they ever
heard from This bench.
An appeal to the Supreme Court was
prayed and granted, and the bond for the
appearance of the defendant was fixed at
the same amount as heretofore.
We may give a more extended notice
hereafter.
