SENATOR EDNUNDs, of the committee that
was charged with an IN vestigation of Treasury
affairs, has reported that since 1-60 currency
representing over eighteen and quarter bill
lions dollars has been printed by the depart.

been made. In regard 10 the registered and
coupon bonds, known as the fve-twenties OF
1862, third series, one SIU0 bond and one hum
dred and three OF the $500 bonds are not ac-
counted 'fOr. Or the bonds delivered by the
printing bureau to the Register or the Treasu.

TO have been handed over 10 q committee for
distribution, or to have been destroyed, the
committee says "The direct evid ence is entire

bonds OF this third series, not issued, and stated
in these tables from the Registers books to
OF the fact is TO be found further than that the
destruction was directed. And the coming in
OF sundry duplicated coupons of this series
produces in the minds OF the cym nitree some
solicitude on the whole subject of tins series
although the whole redemption of coupons does
not exceed the amount issued; but in the case
OF this series the redemption of codpons comes
so near 10 the whole amount issued appearing
on the Registers books that the duplication
cannot be fully explained by the absence of the
coupons entirely from some umb-rs. A table

but the committee say that. considering the
fact that this issue has been long overdue the
probability is very strong that no fraud has
