It will. be remembered that Secretary Mc
CitUoch, some weeks ago, received a pack
age;sontaining $19,000, a greater portion of
which was in 7-30 . bdnds, with the numbers
cut out and the remainder in national cur ;
rency. 'No letter or signature - accompanied .
the money, but the envelope was post marked .
,tTrbaiia, Ohio. The money was placed to
the credit of the conscience fundthere being
nothing to show from whom it came, and
the fact that the numbers were cut out of the
bonds proved that the former owner of them 5
did not wanjt to be known. Oh Wednesday
last a letter was received from a , party in
Wisconsin, the postmark being Honey Creek.
The writer claimed that he sent i the money
to be converted into other securities, such as 4
the Secretary might think proper, to send, 6
and gave as his reason for sending no com
munication , or Sri gnat are withthQ, money,
that he' was very sick at the time,"and not 1
able to Avrite. . The officers of the Treasury ; ;

Dear Judge; Underwood,: ;On reflection, I
think it best that you advise the District
Attorney , (Mr. Chandler) that I'will join you
in holding court in ltichmgudton the 13 of

transacted. Mr. Chandler, I ithinky should
notify the counsel, of .Jefferson. Dayis.pf this,
in order, that he may appear.-and take his ;
trial f te1sees.fit; As'his bail was taken for
his appearance on the fourth' Wednesday in
November, he is not, it is true," bound to, ap-:

me to be present except during the first week

Wednesday, because of the term of the Su
