LOST CURRENCY The past due debt OF
the United STATES, upon which the pay
men, of interest has been stopped now
amounts to eleven millions of dollars
Nearly half the amount consists of thre
and one half per cent bonds which Were
called in last year, The further sum
nearly four millions in bonds of various
issues have been outstanding from one to
tive years, and the remainder from five to
ten years and over. 1t is possible that
many of these bonds have been lost or
misplaced or accidentally destroyed ard
NAV never be presented for redemption
Sill it is surprising that such large sums
mould have been privately boarded SO
many years after the interest had ceased
1t is now we'll ascertained that of the
fractional currency used during the war
and until subsidiary silver was substituted
in 1876, nearly 81 000.00O o year, or
Sl5 600, 900 out of $40 900, 900 printed and
circulated, has been lost or destroyed.
Over So 900 900 has been marked off he
treasury books by authority of congress,
and $1,000, 900 more might as well follow,
since the noles have ceased to be presented
It is estima ed that about $26 900, 900
yreenb ,ck notes have been lost or destroy
ed in the twenty one years since they
were first issued; but the truth about all
such estimates will never be known in
our day, AS greenoack leg Il tender has
