A BID FOR GuITEAu'S BODY.

Mr.. j. II. Ridgeway of Philadelphia,
has made a proposition for the body of
Ghiteau and Mr. Scovile informs him
that the relatives are inclined to regard
it favorably. John w. Guiteau, how
ever denounces the scheme and states
that he will never agree to anything of
the kind.
1t is understood that Mr., Ridgeway
guarantees the relatives $4,000, with a
percentage, which he calculates will
make the total price for the corpse at
least 100000. If the offer is accepted,
the body will be preserved by a patent
refrigerating process, ice and salt being
the materials used. The exhibition car
refrigerator will cost $4,000 Mr.
Ridgeway says it will be elegantly car
peted and upholstered, and the metallic
cooling apparatus will be concealed by
rich hangings 1t has not yet been de
cided how the body shall be disposed,
but it will be arranged so as to look as
as possible. The form will be
dressed Just as in life, and the features,
it is expected, will retain the expression
they wore Immediately after they became

Mutilated Silver Coin.

A large amount Of mutilated silver has
been sent TO United States Treasurer
Gilfllan under the impression that it
would be redeemed by him, and he has
always transmitted such remittances to
the Superintendent, of the Mint at Phil
adelphia for the purchase as bullion. He
is now informed by the Superintendent
of the Mint that under the rules and in
structions governing that Office the small
est purchase of silver or deposit of gold
received is 800, and that upon all such
there is imposed melting charge of 81,
which he considers heavy tax on small
deposits Heretofore he has taken those
sent from the United States Treasury,
but as the number is largely increasing
from all parts of the country, he says he
is forced to decline taking them in the
future, and that no less amount than
500 can hereafter be received at the
Mint. In view of this decision, the
Treasury will return to the senders all
such remttances sent to his office for re-
demption.- Washington Republican.
