AN IMPORTANT LETTER FROM TREASURER
SPINNEK.-The following letter from United
States Treasurer Spinner is of interest
Treasury Of tie United lStntcs. Washinotou.
May 10th, lS66.-Dear Sir: Your letter Of the
10Th Instant has just now been received. You
ask to what extent is the government liable for
the redemption Of the notes Of the national
banks. L answer, to the full nominal face val
ue OF every note issued by the Comptroller of
the Currency to bank, and by the bank put
into circulation
You ask, should the bank deposits with the
United States Treasurer to secure the circulo-
ting notes of the bank depositng them be in.
adequate to the redemption of the notes of the
bank by reason of the decline of the securities
deposited, is the government bound to redeem
the notes at par?
The tOrty-seventh section of the national Cur
rency act not only gives the right to forfeit all
the securities held, but for any deficiency the
government has first and paramount lien
upon all the assets of defaulting bank.
therefore answer this question affirmativtlv
You ask, again, could the absolute failure of
a national bank impair the value of the circu
latlng notes of the bank making such failure &?
L answer, no. On the contrary. the notes of =,
national bank that has failed are rather better
than those OF bank in good standing, if away
from the business martS OF commercial centres
OF the country, for the reason that the Treas
urer OF the United States becomes the cashier
OF such defaulting bank, and will, through his
assistants, and all other government officers,
redeem such circulation.
G, You ask, fourth, are the notes of the United
States Treasury, beyond the fact of their bcin"
leegal-tenders, greater security to the holders
than the currency of the national banks? The
United States legal tendernotes afford no great,
er security to the holder than the notes nf M.
tlonal banks, The only real differences betwe"n SO"
the two Is, that while the latter are onlv l.
BARTENDER from and to the goyernma1, tIa
former are such legal-tender from and 70 "H III
parties, whether municipalities, corporat;orn -,
or individuals. Very respectfully yours.

Its the issue Of fractional notes less than ten

The MEMPHIS Riots 1t is stated that no
less than seven different commissioners are

remembered that several South American
States have joined Chill in the war against
Spain, among them being Peru. The Spanish

test between it and the Peruvian batteries.
at CalIao the chief seaport Of Peru, on May
81 The Spaniards did not have it all their
own way, as at Valparaiso, however. The
shore batteries opened the contest, and not only
held their own against the Spanish lombard
ment, but severely injured some of the Span
lsh ships, and finally compelled them to with
draw from the contest Six war vessels took
part in the bombardmcnt and all were more or
less damaged, the flagship Villa de Madrid
and one other being compelled to withdraw
before the fight was over, and the Spanish Ad-
mral Nunez being badly wounded. The Pc
ruvian loss was small, the Secretary of War.

age done to Callao is slight The defeat of
the Spanards has caused great delight not
only in Peru but all over the Continent, the
Peruvian victory having been received with
popular pleasure even in this remote quarter.
Callao is the seaport of LAMA, the capital of
Peru, and is six miles west Of that city. II has
au excellent roadstead and about 10. 600 inhabi-

OUR NATIONAL DEBT-Mr. Gladstone, in
presenting the English budget" to the House
OF Commons on May Sd, made some very i'm.
portant remarks upon the SUBJECT of the debt
OF the United States. He said he considered
the debt as something wonderful for the crea-
ton OF but four years, and that. although its
amount was less than the debt of Great Brit
ain, a larger annual tax was required to paw
the interest. He justly remarked, however,
that the United States was in far more favor.
able position to pay her debt, both interest
and principal, than Great Britain was to pay
hers; that there are persons now living who
may see its entire extinction and that the fll-
ture of America, so far as finance is concerned,
Is not likely to be attended with any embarrass-
ment. He thought Eng and might take a los.
son from America, and endeavor to reduce her
own debt. The debts of various European
countries are stated in Mr.. Gladstone's speech.
