Some parties are under tba Impression that the stand casks heretofore rased 'In lienor stores can not be used for any other pivpos, which is not so. Tha bio of tha casks Is prohibited only In retailing liquors. Tni Secretary op tub Treasurt has recently recelred erldenco of the sonrcoof applies of the swindling Arm In New York, who deceWo people by proposing to furnish them with "genuine Imitation legal tender notes," and send to the purchaser a lot of photographs of the United Statcj currency.

"' Tns cable gives na this morning the sub stance of the reply of the Spanish Govern ment to General Sickles note. It Is pacific la tone, and puts the refusal to recognue In terference In domestlo affairs on the ground of national dignity. It attributes to tbe United States a laudable desire to strip the struggle In Cuba of Its sanguinary character, and the reply Is altogether one which can not fall to rrcelre honest and lust consider tloa. Yesterday afternoon. Mr. S. E. Middle- ton. formerly cashier of the United States Treainry, received at his residence, without note or explanation, a massive solid silver fruit dish with a silver ladle. On examining it he found to his surprise the foil owing In scription beautifully engraved, "a. E. Mid' dlcton, lata cashier United States Treasury, with compliments of the Treasurer aod em ployees, September, I860," and on the oppo site side "Treasury Department." The dish la a perfect gem of workmanship, from the establishment of Tiffany A Co , New York. Congressional Stationery. Tho pro posals for furnishing stationery to the Senate were opened in tno secretary's omce on Wednesday. There were nine bidders, prin cipally city dealers. The advertisement calls for proposals on 1VJ classes, and tno wont of calculating tha bids Is so great that It will probably require three days berore aa awara can bo made. It Is probable that the award will be mads to several bidders, as tno classes will have to ba separated. Tbe bids for sta tionery for the Houso of Representatives were not opened yesterday on account or tno absence from tbe city of Mr. Clinton Lloyd, chief clerk of tho Home. Information has been received at the Internal Revenue Bureau of the seizure of tbe tobacc3 store and warehouse of Edmonds, Fettlgrow & Co., of Memphis, Tennessee, for flagrant violations of tbe revenue laws. Over twelve thousand pounds of tobacco was found on the premises not stamped accord ing to law. The firm did not keep the books required by the regulations, and there was every evidence of wtlfal latent to defraud the Government of the tax Imposed on that arti cle. Tba selsnre was made by Supervisor Emory, and the property Is valued at one hundred thousand dollars. Discovert op Gold at Glymont On Tuesday some gentlemen, among whom was Mr. Joseph II. Bhaffield, the proprietor of the pavilion at Glymont, whllo passing through tbe corndeM on tbe hill above tho pavilion, discovered somo very nne speci mens of gold quarts. One of the gentlemen, who has had considerable experience In California mining, pronounces tbe speci mens cnual lit richness to the gold quarts of California. Mr. Marbery, the proprietor of Glymont, has mode arrangements for pros reeling his estate. It is said tbat tne qnarts rock abound upon tho estate. As may readily be surmised, the discovery has created great excltomeat In tbe neighbor hood and prospecting Is the order on All sides. Tub teleqrapu announces tho first meet ing of the Congressional Committee on tho causes of decay In American commerce, at New York, yesterday. They were met by committees representing the ship bnlhllng and tho ship owning Interests, and, of course, there was some diversity of opinion oa tho part of these Interests, which may naturally, while agreeing In the main points, differ In the matter of detail. A number of Tery prominent commercial gentlemen are to ap pear before tho committee to make sugges tions and give such Information as tho com mittee may desire. With these opportuni ties for obtaining reliable Information and valuable data, It Is reasonable to hope that this committee will be able to mako such a report to Congress as will lead to legislation that will place our flag onco more upon tho ocean la lu former glory.

Tns Second Auditor has Issued a circu lar to claim agents and correspondents re quiring them hereafter to be more explicit in their Inquiries, la consequence of the ac cumulation of a very large number of letters, which would require more time than the clerks can possibly devote to the work of compiling with their request. lie directs that all claim agents in future be required raw avaikt ttain ferred to. when filed, by whom, and when the case was last reported from this office. If the claim Is based upon services in the army the name of tho soldier, company and regi ment must he glren.

They advocated, Incidentally, the allow ance of drawback to American shtp-bullders on material need In ships, and argued that thus In a few years American eblp-buUJers would bo able to produce cither Iron or woodca vessels as cheaply as tbey can now bo produced on the Tyne or Clyde, while free trade In snips would give immediate relief to American ship owners and prevent a monopoly of the carrying trade by foreign ers.
