The Missing District Coupons.

WHAITHK COMMISSIONERS SAY. THBy ARE NOT
RESPONSIBLE AND THE COUPONS POSSESS NO
VALUE WHATEVER, IF IN EXISTENCE.
The District Commissioners say In relation to
the statement published In a morning paper
imputing to them responsibility for some miss
ing coupons, that the writer has been grossly
mistnformed 1t is true. they say, that during
the year 1874 the commissioners OF the sinking
fund Of the District Of Columbia deposited
With the board OF audit taking a receipt there
for, sewer certificate coupons to the amount OF
Sl3,5s0, the ultimate intention of the transfer
being the conversion into sos bonds OF the
District The coupons In question were exam
ined by the board OF audit and rejected by It
prior to any interference by legislation OF
Congress. on the ground that as the sinking fund
was part and parcel Of the District govern
ment, that therefore one branch OF the govern
ment was not indebted to the other. It is not
tue that these coupons were turned over by
the BOARD OF audit to the Commissioners and re-
celved their acknowledgment of the transfer.
Neither tie present Commissioners nor any OF
their predecessors have ever been In possession
OF them for one moment Neither have any OF
them receipted TO the board OF audit for them
on the contrary, 1t has been ascertained on re-
liable authority, that the said coupons could
not De found long prior to the abOliShment Of
the board Of audit. The recent investigation OF
the matter by the present Commissioners de-
Veloped the fact that there was no record what
ever CT the transaction On the books OF the
D0aTd OF audit, ard consequently the statement
that these coupons had been Teceipted for either
by the present Or late Commissioners Is wholly
uDfounG6d. 1t IS apparent that these coupons
must nave peen destroyed Or nlSlaii during the
they have not been found. And as they are not
receivable In payment OF general or special
taxes, Tor nave been presented 10 the Court OF
Claims, under the act OF June &c. 1850, they are
entirely ValuelesS, and their disappearance is Of

The Earragut Efay.

PRUSPECT OF A FINE DISPLAY.
In conversation with a STAR reporter last
evening, Admiral Porter said that he estim ate 3
that the procession of the military and naval
forces alone On Farragut day will be q mile
In length-from the monument at the foot OF
the Capitol to the Treasury department. Then
there Will be the civil organizations to be
added. Admiral Porter has invited the MILL
itary of Baltimore and Alexandria to take part
in the ceremonies. He has been notified By the
mayors Of the respective cities that the invita-
ton has been referred to the proper officers.
A numter Of letters have been received by
Admiral Porter from survivors OF the Farragur
deet, who say they will attend. Members OF
the army present at the capture Of Noodle and
soldiers or the Gulf have written, asking II they
can come. The Admiral has replied, Sayin :
that they will be welcome.
1T is funny" said Admiral Porter, "the num-
Ger OF people who want to rectte poem On the
occasion. This is about the time for the spring
epidemic In the poetry way to break out Is il
not? At any rate it has come upon me. i have
hundreds OF letters from men and women La al
parts OF the country who think II they don !
get chaLce to Tecite an original poem over the
Farfagut statue there will be dreary blank Ia
the ceremonies. Every one OF them, too, 1t
would seem, Is peculiarly fitted by 'assooia-
tons or otherwise for this duty. We are nc
going 10 have any spring poetry ct the unve!l-
fLg, and have to write declining their offers.
Many people are also SeZed With u desire to
make speeches on the occasion. The program
IS al made out. and 1t would be Impossible II
desirable, to accommodate either the poet or
the orator."

ing that the democrats would not only have

great an extent as anywhere else In the coun-
Try, and thought that the Senators from that
section would do better to look into the condt-
tiOn OF affairs there than to pay so mucn atteu-

tackled MI. Malone and Mr.. Sherman reminded
him THAT MIR. Malone was elected against the
fierce opposition Of the bourbon democracy. y
Mir. Call retorted that Mr.. Malone had claimed
to be better democrat than Mr. Hill. TO this
Mr.. Shernen replied that he was better demo-
crat, in literal SENSE or the word, than any
man On the other side, and concluded: .'For
what is the meaning OF democracy? Equality,
love OF liberty, equal rights" Mr. Gail then
proceeded With his speech, charging that Mas
sachusetts elections were more corrupt than
those ia the south. This was Indignantly de-
MED by MessrS. Dawes and Hoar. and, at $50,
