How the Coin Is HOarded In the
Treasury.
Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Among other provisions of the financial
act of last January is one authorizing the
Secretary fthe Treasury to sell any Of the
bonds authorized by the funding act Of July,
1870, for not hess than par, in coin, to ena-
bic him to carry into effect the specie re-
sumption clause Of the act first referred to
above. The Secretary has, from time to
time ayailed himself Of the above pro-
vision by selling new fiye per cent bonds
for coin and using the coin to pUTSchase sill
yer bullion. So far since the passage Of the
act about 500 0O0C0O bonds have been
sold; $4,000 coo worth of silver has been
purchased. There can be no doubt that
the Secretary is authorized to increase the |
BONDED debt IN order to enable him to carry
out the provisions Of the specie resumption
act.
Fashionable Smuggling.
Special 10 the Cincinnati Gazette.
The Treasury Department has informa-
ton that the sudden and strict enforce
ment Of the new regulations in regard TO
fashionable smuggling in New York, is
causing increased futtering, both at that
port and in Paris. The indications are
that the regular dealings carried on be-
tween parties in Paris and large list Of
customers in New York have been on a
larger scale than has heretofore been sup
posed. and information which has been col |
lected on this point is Of a very interesting
character. Tie breaking up Of important
operators in the Illicit trade, and inter
feTiug with the filling oil many orders given
in IA hIouable circles, early in the spring,
with a view 10 display during the watering
place season, have sadly interfeTed with
the domestic arrangements Of quite large |
force Of fashionable people.
