The Confederate Treasury.

The New Orleans Picay7uae's Wash
ington correspondent furnishes the follow
ing statement by Fl. M. Clark, of Clarks-
vile, Tenn, who was appointed acting
Treasurer Of the Confederacy at Washing
ton, Ga, where the entire treasury was
turned over to him:
81 paid off the naval brigade through Post
master WheeleSs, OF Nashville; paid off the
troops who were near us through the proper
accredited officers; burnt millions of bonds
and currency in the presence of Secretary
taly of War. and turned over to the Virginia
bank officers the specie which belonged to
the Virginia banks and which they had never
been able to obtain from the treasury for
want of the proper officers to deliver it. One
of my last acts was to turn over to Major
Moses, A. G: s, about $4,000 in silver mainly
bullion, which the President had ordered to
be used in furnishing subsistence to
the paroled soldiers who were passing
through to their homes, thus relieving them
and the distressed country through which
they were passing. took receipts for all my
payments and with the whole treasury dis
bursed, except an insignificant sum- l left
Washington about II O'Clock at night with a
small escort given us by Gen. Duke, which
we shortly dismissed, and joined the Presi

break. Then again took charge of my train,
and on tie morning of the 9Th (May), Fres-
dent DAVIS, having heard of danger to his
family, who were travelling some distance
ahead, from marauders in search of horses,
decided to take his staff and few attendants
and join them, the train to proceed to Flori-
da, the intention, as understood, being then
to take the boats to Cuba and from there to
the Trans Mississippi department. As was
more likely to be captured with the
train than the mounted party, in order
to provide means for the transportation to
Cuba, called the staff together and paid Col.

Texas; Col. VIM. Preston johnson, A. d. g.;

private funds brought from Richmond; but
upon my urging that the party might need it,
he let it remain. President Davis, to the best
of my knowledge, had only some fifty dollars
perhaps less, of specie and Confederate cur
rency-his private funds. The whole Treasu-
ry passed through my hands AS Acting Treas
