CASH IN THE TREAsURY.-The coin balance
in the Treasury at this date is $50, 600 900, and
S5o,oOo,OO0 in gold-bearing certificates The
currency balance is about $1,000 600, which is
rather a smaller sum than is usually on hand
In addition to this, however, there are about
S16,oOo000 in the vaults which have been placed
to the credit of disbursing officers of the Gov
ernment, upon their requisitions, and which is
checked out by them from time to time to lGui-
date accounts against the Government. Hence,
the $4,000, 600 balance is surplus fund sufficient
to meet any demand, and in case of an emer-
gency the sl6,0oO,OOO could be used, as a good
portion OF it will probably lay in hand a week
or two.

an arrangement with him to act as

May signed paper which he supposed

1869, payable on theIsf OF May, 1870,
with interest after maturity. Mr..
May did not read the Note or paper
himself, but sigped itupon the Agents
reading as above. The Machines were
to be delivered to Mr.. May at Reeds
Blacksmith Shop, Knoxville, on the
