WASHINGTON "RINGS."
How the Treasury is BIed by Con-
tractors.


The revelations made within day or two at
Washington, by the committee who had charge
of the stationery contracts of the Department
of the Interior and the Patent Office, show that
the sharpers at Washington are more scientific
in swindlng than anything ever carried on
under the roof of the much-abused City Hall,
and by the officials denominated, in a Pick
wickian sense OF course, as the "FOrty
Thieves The report shows that contracts
were awarded to the highest bidders, and not
to the lowest. The committee find that in one
year the Patent Office incurred an expense of
over $50 600 for printing at extrayagant rates.
Tbeaker and Stout were then in charge of the
Office In these extra orders they found, for
instance, books worth SO were charged at S45.
Cash books worth SIS were charged at $25.
Cards worth about So per 1000 were charged at
$40. Printing envelopes wolth about $3.50 Der
1000 were charged at $40, and some at $40.
Ruling, worth about $500 per 1000 sheets,
was charged at $50. Printing 100000 blanks,
worth So per 1000, charged at SIG, and so on.
The employees of the department seem to have
been pdrticeps cTtninis in these transactions. A
messenger who was caught in allowing false
returns of stationery to be made was dismissed;
and again, during months absence of another
receiving clerk, goods said 10 have been deli
vered to the department were charged at S500O
while, in fact, goods worth only 500 were
actually received. Numerous other similar
frauds were practised and are given in detail in
the report. The City Hall chaps must thro " np

proceed to eject them, when several men came
in and seized the pugiistic husband, forced
him into the hall, and locked the door, He
secured q large carving knife, and while the
will was being executed filed the air with
threats of a bloodthirsty character. THE will
having been executed, the attorneys desired to
leave, but the carvng-kntte was constantly in
their path like drawn sword. They tried the
window, only TO find the carVng-knlfe glIsten-
ing before their eyes. The stratagem OF barris-
terial genius was resorted to, but Mr.. Sprang
was ever ready to spring for them. At length,
while the man was in the house, the door was
held by several men, and then the attorneys
crawled out of window, aud left the carving
knife and it's wielder unsatiated. The man was
ordered to be arrested, but the order was not
carried out, aud afterwards, by the request OF
daughter, IL was recalled. The cause OF the
mans opposition was that the woman desired
TO give a portion OF her property TO her two
daughters, and the husband was bound to have
the whole.

Oyster-Raistng.

The history and profits of the oysterbeds in
France are given in French Journal as fol-
lows:-
''In 1859 about 5000, 900 oysters were laid
down in the Bay of st. Brieue, on the coast of
Brittany. In the following year three fascines,
taken up at hazard, contained 10000 oysters of
expense of forming each bank was only 221
francs, and 800 fascines we're laid down for this
sum. Multiply, then, 800 by go 900, and 5000 900
oysters will be obtained, which, if sold at 20
francs per thousand, will produce 100 000 francs
If however, the number of oysters on each
fascine were taken AS only 10 600, the sum of
60, GOO francs would be procured, which, tor an
expenditure of only 22l francs, would give
as NJ. Lavicare, Commissary OF the Maritime
Inscription, remarks in his reoort to the French
Goyernment-'a much larger profit than any
other branch of industry In 1862, the produce
of oysters sold IN Paris amounted to 2,446, 096
