WASHINGTON, D. c., June 27.-As stated in
these dispatches last night, the new Currency
BILL which makes Treasurer Spinner the sole
agent in the United States for the redemption
Of National Bank notes, will have beneficial re-
suit in giving the country new issue Of those
notes, in place OF the torn and dirty ones
no" in circulation. It is well known that for
all moneys due to the United States, except
customs duties, National Bank notes are re-
ceivable the same as the Treasury notes. The
new bill provides that all notes worn, defaced, mu-
tilated, CT otherwise unfit for circulation, when
received by any Assistant Treasurer, or at any
designated depository of the United States, shall
be forwarded to the Treasury for redemption.
Treasurer Spinner, receipt of such notes, will
redeem them II sent in sums of $1,000, or any
multiple thereof. Tho sender wil1 receive now
notes Of the Unites S:ases, and those torn, de-
faced, or otherwise unfit, will be sent to the
Comptroller, who will return new1y-printed
notes to the banks to which they belong when
the amount has reached $500, and the bank has
deposited Tho amount in United States notes to
redeem them. Il the bank fails to 80
deposit, the amount is charged against the 5 per
CENT already On deposit, ana Its notes are retired
TO that amount. Gen. Spinner takes the ground
that private parties and corporations are entitled
to the advantage Of this provision, and may
send National Bank notes in sumB Of 81 900 or
1ts multiple, as provided above. AB the law re-
quires the National banks to bear the expense
Of tho redemption, parties may send by
express and have the amount returned free of
expense to themselves. The following are the
rules adopted by the Treasurer for sending notes
for redemption: The packages must be put up
IN boxes or in urappezs of stout paper or cloth.
