WASHINGTON, December 3O-The Post
tomorrow will publish q letter over flcti-
hous signature, the writer of which claims
to have been clerk in in the Con-
federate Treasury at Richmond, and as
such accompanied the specie from Richmond
to Charlotte, North Carolina, leaving Rich
mond on the night OF April I'd, 1865. The
amount taken the writer does not know,
but thinks it must have been very large.
At Danville, Virginia, the treasure, on
April ID, was taken from the car and placed
in bank vault, where 1t remained
until after Lees surrender. The SeCre-
tary of the Treasury, fully knowing
that there was no further hope of success
for the Confederacy, ordered that portion
Of the specie to be used to redeem Confed-
crate notes at the rate of ten dollars
specie for seventy currency, and the writer
| claims he saw immense sums of specie thus
paid out, being himself one of the fortu-
nate ones. After Lees surrender, what re-
mained OF the specie was sent to Green's
boro, where $50 600 was paid to Johnston s
army. Here also all the officers and clerks
of the government were paid off in gold, in
sums ranging from $50 TO $3.50 each, the
writer havingasssted in preparing pay-rolls
for the purpose, himself again beneficiary,
presumably, as he describes the methods
he and others used toConceal their treasure.
| Whatthe remained was taken southward
but the writer parted company with il
at Charlotte, and thereafter had no personal
knowledge oft, but he doubts the possibil
ity of Jefferson Davis having proiited by q
single dollar. The writer in private note
gives his name and address as G. Y. Addi-
son, Prince Georges county, Maryland.
