 ury.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-From frequent in quiries made at the Treasury department it seems that an impression prevails throughout the country that money is permitted to accu- nulate in the Treasury when it might be used in the purchase of the interest bearing debt In reply to one of these many inquiries the following explanatory letter has been sent
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 20, 1880. To James Smith, Esq.,, Otsego, Michigan
 SirI am in receipt of your letter of the 16th ins asking why the Treasury does not its accumulat ing silver and gold to Hquidate the United States bonds matured which may be paid at the option of the government. In reply have to inform you that under the resumption act there accumu- lated fund for the redemption of outstand- being about 40 per of the amount of the notes outstanding redeemable-o demand from that fund and small as it deemed prudent to hold for that purpose In addition to this 1t is of course necessary to have small balance from which to pay the ordinary current expenses of the government, thus making the total available cash in the Treasury about S155, ,000, ,000 though of this amount ries the receipts and expenditures of the govern ment temporarily increase diminish. Beyond accumulation of money in the Treasury, in fact the available balance to- day is little less than that of year ago. All the of receipts the expen- ditures during the last year has been applied to the reduction of the interest bearing debt of which there has been purchased with the surplus in the open market $103 I'll, 100 in which there will be saving in each year hereafter of $5 50 of interest. This method of purchasing bonds in the open market made necessary ss there have been since the completion of the refunding operations more than year ago. Very respectfully,

Strange Case.

a short time ago George l.. Taylor,
a well-to-do citizen of Denver, Col,
began 10 feel a w%eightiness in his
cheeks. The muscles appeared to be
growing stiff and the skin certainly
had become hardened. Mr.. Taylor's
friends made jocose remarks about his
cheek when the hardening began,
but the sufferer himself was in no
mood for fun. Before the expiration
of a week both sides Of the mans face
assumed the solidity of marble. He
was unable to hold up his head. His
eyes took a stony glitter. One side Of
the neck also grew hard, and in anoth-
er week the victim died. The Dem
yer physicians pronounced the case
one of decided petrifaction. Mr..
Taylor was 81 years Of age and just
