nIutiIoted Fractional and Postal Cur

rency.-We are informed by the Cashier of the
First National Bank of this place, that he has
made such arrangements with the Treasury
Department at Washington for the transmits
sion, redemption and exchange Of mutilated
worn out, and defaced Fractional currency
that such money will be received at the Bank
and new currency given in exchange. In or
der to avail ourselves of this benefit, the fol-
lowing rules are to be observed:
The fractional currency must be put up in
parcels of even dollars, strapped with a band
ofpaper, with the depositors name written
thereon, together with the amount and date OF
deposit. The Bank does not assume to decide
upon the genuineness of the currency received
nor the deductions to which the same is sub
jeot on account of mutilations, but the parcels
strapped and marked in the manner above di
rected, are forwarded to the Treasury Depart
ment, and whatever deductions are made ar
marked on the straps and returned, and tn
depositors called upon for the deficiency
We hope every business man in Kenosha wi
avail himselfo of the facility offered by the ban
to exchange old currency for new, and thereb
alq IN Kidding the community of the old soileC
worn out shin-plasters which abound here, an

filthy to be touched.

HE CroPs.-The week past, for the most
past, has been favorable for securing the ex
posed grain crop, and the farmers of this coun
ty have improved every hour. We have con
versed with many farmers, from every town,
and almost every school district in the county,
and all unite in saying the damage is much less
than they feared. While a few put it as high
as 20 per cent of the wheat crop, the majority
put it at much less than that. Ten to fifteen
per cent. of the crop has probably been more
or less injured

The Tribune's special says the government
is taking the ground that blockade. running
was a part of the rebellion, and that all prop
erty used and all profits made in it, are SUBJ
iect to the rules of war. They have sent
agents south who haze seized all cotton and
all other property intended for blockade run
ming, and have called upon all engaged in the
business to state under oath their associates,
the amount of their business their profits,
dc. Most of the witnesses have told the full
tale of their business. But one or two, prob
ably unwilling to disgeFge, were sent to prison
on account of their refusal TO testify. One OF
the largest stockholders in this enterprise was
the Hon. q. A, frenholm, late Secretary of
the Treasury OF the so,called confederate
state, thus carrying on the double business
OF guarding the confederate money and fiiling
his own pockets at the same time. In the
course of his examination. which took place
on the 18th ult. Mr.. Trenholm stated that
just before the evacuation of Richmond the
total amount of specie in the confederate
vaults was $500 900 TO $780, 600, Of which
sum about $500, 900 was in the treasury at
Richmond. The $500, 900 was carried of
and partly distributed among the soldiers OF
Johnston army, and partly among the mill
tary escort of jeff Davis at the time of their
disarmament. Mr.. Trenholm stated that,
in his opinion. Mr.. Davis and the other civil
officers refused to receive any part of it,.
The examination of Mr.. Trenh ohm as ex-
secretary and ex blockade runner was quite
long, but showed much frankness Oh his part
in revealing all he knew.
