Discovery of Yaluables in the Treasury
DeDartmpnt.

AWashington despatch to theNew- York
Tribune says:-''In June, 1865, there were
received at the Treasury Department three
large wooden boxes, said to contain valu-
ables, turned over by the War Department
for safe keeping These boxes have been
lying ever since in the vaults sof the Trea-
sury, but were to-day opened through the
efforts of a United States Senator, some OF
whose constituents were supposed to be
interested. A committee, composed of
officers of the War and Treasury Depart
ments, witnessed the carrying out of the
Joint order of the two departments The
boxes were found to contain exceedingly
valuable invoices of diamonds, pearls, neck
laces, watches, earrings, breaches, rings,
chains, seals, and all manner of rare and
expensive jewelry to the value of many
thousands of dollars. The most valuable
property, however, which the boxes con-
tanned was very large amount of gold and
silver plate, consisting of pitchers, salvers,
spoons, knives, urns, NC, some of which
was thought to have been more than a
hundred years old. One of the boxes con-
tanned some very rich wearing apparel for
ladies-silks, velvets, laces &c.-besides
an incredible amount of Confederate notes
and bonds and notes of State banks. There
gold and silver The boxes were about the
size of ordinary dry goods boxes, and the
value of their contents is variously esti-
mated at from $4,000 to S100,0 600. Many
of the articles were tamped with the family
crests, initials or monographs of the own
ers, and all were OF the finest and most
costly description. The boxes were sent
by the Provost Marshal General of the army
OF the Tennessee to the War Department
in this city. and Secretary Stanton turned
them over to Treasurer Spinner, subject to
future action. The valuables are supposed
to have been taken possession Of by Gen.
Sherman's men in Georgia and other States,
where they had been abandoned by the
fleeing inhabitants. In some cases they
were taken from banks, which had ceased
to do business upon the approach of the
Federal army. The officers of both depart
ments are uncertain of their duty in the
matter of the disposition of this property.
Some hold that it should be returned, IN
der proper restriction and proof, to the
owners, if they can be found. Others be-
IieVe the articles belong to the Govern
ment, under the laws of Congress, and that
they should be sold, and the proceeds
placed in the Treasury; while still others
affirm that neither the War nor the Urea
sury Department has any authority in the
premises, and that special act Of Congress
should be called for. Nothing has yet been
done, and the yaluableS have been return
ed to the vaults of the Treasury.

Decay of a Great Chinese City.

Rev. John i. Nevius writes to the New
York Observer:
"Hang-Chow has long had the reputa-
ton, both among natives and foreigners, OF
being one of the most beautiful cities in
China. and Marco Polo described it, in his
time, as one of the finest in the world 1t
is said to have been, few hundred years
ago, more than thirty miles III circumfer-
enee; and Chinese records represent its
walls, during former dynasties, as enclos-
ing several of the high hills beyond the
southern limits of the present city. The
wall is now about twelve miles III circum-
ference. Ten years ago, when [ spent sew
eral months there, the space within the
walls was almost entirely occupied with
buildings, and closely built suburbs extend
ed from these to four miles in opposite di-
rections. north and south. The city was
then the most interesting and the cleanest
which l have ever seen in China.
cit now presents scene of desolation
which it is painful to witness. About nine
years ago it was taken by the Tai-Ping in
surgents, who held it only few days
| Their object was to divert the imperial army
! from the rebel capital, Nankin, which they
we're then besieging. At that time it Is
supposed that about twenty thousand O
the inhabitants of Hang Chow persisted:
the whole number being one million. Many
Of those who then died were women, who,
III their terror, committed suicide, either
! by hanging themselves, taking opium OF
drowning themselves in wells and canals
| "a few years later, when Hang-ChoN
was again attacked by the rebels, it Offered
a determined resistance. It was for long
time in state of siege. All the provisions

fresh glass We're sold for food at exorbitan
prices. The leather of shoes and trunks
was boiled and eaten, and the flesh ofthost
who had died of not unfrequently became
the food of the survivors.
''The city was finally taken, and the Tar
tar city included within its walls was utter
ly demolished, not single house being
left standing Large portions OF the main
city were also burned, and now present
scene of blackened walls and shapelesi
ruins. All with whom [ have conyersec
on the subject concur in the testimony
that not more than one-fifth of the presen
occupants of the city were included among
its inhabitants ten years ago. 1t IS more
than enough to make the heart sick to wan
der through its desolated streets, and I'M
aglne the scenes of terror and distress
which they have witnessed. Some places
IN this vicinity have suffered even more
than Hang They are now, however
being gradually rebuilt
| 'tHang-Chow is now occupied by mission
aries from different societies in England
and the United States They are tolerated
by the natives from fear of foreign nations
and in consequence of express treaty stip
ulations: but it will require great deal o
patience, prudence and hard work to over
| come the preiudices of the people.

STUMBLING ON A LARGE SCALE.
A CIairvoyant's Confidence Game.

From the Peoria (ill.) Democrat, June IL.
About two years ago an old gentleman,
once a prominent railroad man and we'll
known citizen of Peoria, while living in st
Louis, made the acquaintance of woman,
q clairvoyant in that city. He being a
spiritualist, the woman had great influence
over him, and finally induced him to marry
her, in order to get possession of his
wealth, amounting to about $4,000 She
and her colleague, whom she represented
to the old man as her brother, at once com
menced to carry into execution their we'll
laid plans for obtaining the money.
As soon as the marriage ceremony was
performed, the three started to Peoria on q
bridal tour, and while on the way, the old
man was dragged to such an extent as to
render him half insane. 1t seems that the
latter had raised and educated an orphan
girl. The childish old man, rendered
more foolish through the influence of the
administered drug, was induced to believe
the story that the girl had made affidavit
that she had been seduced by her adopted
father, and that officers of the law were
upon the track to arrest the criminal.
The dupe's fortune was principally IL
cash and government and railroad bonds
A portion of this he had with him, and the
rest was deposited at different places in the
East. To save his property and his per.
son, as soon as the party arrived in Peoria,
the former was transferred to the wife, ano
the old man retired to little town a short
distance across the river, where he remain
ed some weeks as an invalid, to avoid de-
lection Not hearing from his friends il
Peoria he finally came ov' to the city, but
could not find them. Suspecting some
thing wrong, he made trip East to where
deposits of money and bonds had beer
made, and discovered that the entire
amount had been collected and that the
birds had flown.
After about two years, and quite recent
/ IL, the old man learned that his false wife
hao returned to Peoria. He came hlthel
and found that such was the case, but has
not as yet been able to get any satisfaction
regarding the lost treasure. He has knowl
edge of the woman's living here, and has
frequently called at her house near the
Fourth Ward school house, on Jefferson
street, but has not been able to see or gai1
an interview with her.
! We understand that legal proceedings
are about to be instituted by the swindle6
old man, who is left nearly penniless, will
a hope of recovering portion of his los
| fortune, but as to what success will attend
the intervention Of the court, we are able
to say nothing.
