I I "UVTUrnVm been of late a general inquiry regarding the value of mutilated currency, the iol lowiog fsote are given for information* They are taken from a circular of in? struction to assistant treasurers, issued by the Unite.l States Treasury Depart? ment, on the 23 of January, 1872, the provisions o! which are still in force: Defaced and mutilated fractional and legal ton dor notes, each equaling or ex? ceeding by face measurement three-fifths of its original proportions, in one piece, will, if in snob a condition that their genuineness can be clearly ascertained, be redeemed at the fall face valae of whole notes, in new notes or currency, by tho Treasurer, the seveial assistant treasurers, and designated depositaries of the United States, and all national banks designated as depositaries. Fragments constituting less than three-fifths of the mginal note will be redeemed only at tue United States Trea sury in Washington under the following conditions: Fragments of legal tender notes and fractional currency, aonstitating less than half of the original proportions ot the notes, will be redeemed only when accompanied by affidavit that the miss? ing portions of the notes have been totally destroyed. The affidavit must state the cause and manner of the muti? lation, and the charaoter of the affiant meat be certified to ba good by a magis? trate or other publio offioer. When ac? companied by satisfactory proof, suob fragments will be redeemed for the full face value of the notes of which they are part. Fragments, each less than one-half, hut together, purportiug to constitute more than ono-half of a note, will be re? deemed only when it shall appear, either from the fragments themselves or by affidavit made in conformity to the fore? going paragraph, that they are actually parts of one original note. Entire pieces, constituting half or mure than half, but leaa than three-fifths of notes, will bo redeemed for but half of the full face value uf the notes, exoept wheu accompanied by an affidavit oiudu in conformity to paragraph 1. Half notes that have been punched, will in no case be redeemed. Counterfeit notes will be branded and returned. Unredeemed fragments less than half, will be retaiued. Fractional currency, before being presented for re? demption, should bo sorted out into the different issue*, und Ihe issues resorted i into deuomiuations, and ssaoh parcel should be bound togother with u strip of paper, and labeled in ink with the name of the owner. Tub Savannah-Bank Dkfaulteu? Allen Gt. Jones, the book-keeper who ub suouded from a biuk iu Savannah, made his way tu Now York city, presented his fraudulent drafts at the Park Bank, drew a cool $32,000, and then boat a hasty re? treat to parts unknown. This consum? mate knave emigrated from Ban gor, Me., to the Forest City, ingratiated himself, with a glib tongue, into the affection:; of a trusting and hospitable people, and when%n opportunity offered decamped, leaving tho record of a thief bebind. During the rcoent spoil of severe wea? ther, a flowing oataraot from a dam of tho Frogmoor Mills, in Frankford, Penn., was completely frozen.

C. ??rfcwWH?? fr ? >lirHfr?frii'Pn?Bff ZlaUrpad?-Plaaghlng Tlirou?h the ' Cut?, j j Tuesday alteraood last in Braincrd was a warm, beautiful day, invitiDg in tbe extreme in this latitude at this season of tbe year, and the denizens of tbe City of Pines-were luxuriating in and appreciat? ing the really enjoyable day. The dense pine forests surrounding the city exolude the wind entirely, und while we were en? joying with zest the nbaoge in the tem? perature of the day, the people from out in the open country West of here were being visited by one of those tornado? like winds' so frequent on the plains of the far West, accompanied with falling snow. It was the everlasting report from the front on euoh occasions, "wind 'howling, fierce snow storm, drifting badly, outs filled and filling up, trains cannot move," Sec From certain movements near the de? pot, I "guessed" the trouble, and made my way toward that quarter, aud soon aaoertained that I had judged aright. Arriving at the depot, I found the two "work-cars" of the Northern Pacific Railroad Gompany being prepared for a i trip West and a fight with the elements. These work-oars are models in their way, and a brief description of them will be of interest to many. Both are of the same size as a coach-oar, having under? neath tbe floor large tool-boxes built, access to which is gained from the out? side. One of them is fitted up after the manner of a Pullman sleeping-ooach, finished much plainer, of course, having lower and upper berths running the whole length of the oar, each berth beiug provided with mattresses and a good sup? ply of blankets. The other cur is used as a dining-car, having a kitchen parti? tioned off, also a small room with two berths within it. Iu the dining-car are stationary tableB set, over whioh on one side of the car are three upper berths, for the use of officers of the road and conductors. These cars are complete iu every particular, built strong aud warm, providing warm, comfortable sleeping aud eiting quarters for officers and meu, a great improvement over tho trials aud exposures of la-t winter, as exporieuced in snow-bucking. Soou snow-plow engine No. 33, with ongiue No. 23 us a "pusher," handled by two a* brave engineers as ever pulled a throttle, wero coupled on to our work cars, aud away wo went. Rattling along rapidly, ern long w?j were "out of tho wilderness" aud in moru open country, where wo soou discovered a severe change iu the atmospboro. No snow of any amount was met. with for tho first sixty miles, at which distance we reached FraZ'j'j's mills at about dark. After soine telegraphing, ascertaining the situ? ation - West, {Superintendent Hobart deemed it best to go uo further that night, give the men a night's rest, nud start at day-break in tbe morning. So we all partook of a hearty meal that would do credit to many hotels of the country, had a social smoke and retired to our berths. After a night of refresh? ing eleep, we were awakened at early morn, uto breukf ist, and then again away we went. From this point to Oak Lake, no trouble was found, but at the firat "out" Webt of Oak Lake, tho real work commonced. At Hobart, the train was made up iu three sectious, the snow plow, with "pusher'' attached, compris? ing the first section. An engine hauling a "way-car," in which wore forty strong, sturdy men, armed with shovels, styled the "shovel brigade," beiug tho second section, and the work-cars making the third section. In this order, tbo train proceeded. As I have before said, the first "stop" we ha ' was iu a cut West of Oak Like. I uto this cut the show-plow plunged at the rate of thirty-five or forty miles pur hour. On they went, out ol sight iu a moment; then came to bur ears one whistle, indicating "stuck." Then ciime in tho system of tho officers of the load. The working trains con? taining the men were ruu rapidly toward the submerged suow-plow, and iu iiu in? credibly short space of time, forty men were charing tho track. Liko moles in tho grouud, they dug from under and around tho two engines the hard-packed snow, very soou releasing them, when they backed up, took auother "run" at the cut, and, through it, out ou the open track again, they sped onward like j the wind till they again met a like in vi tation to "take a rut," followed by the other trains as before. j It was my good fortune to sit in the cab of tho snow-plow, behind Miko Grace, traveling engineer of tho road?a small-built, quiet, unostentatious man, such as uo one would suppose, from his appearance, was holding such au impor? tant position ; a thorough-bred, however, iu whom the coiupauy have every oonfi donce. Sitting thero quietly, looking uhettii, saying but little, wo soou came in sip,ht of a cut that looked like business. Nearer ami nearer wo approached it. "Toot, toot," from the engine ahead, signifying more speed; "foot, tool," from the rear engine, and then "wide open" they wero thrown. A quiet voice, ooming from Grace, gays: VGive it to her, Aleck," addressing tho engineer. Givo it to her it was, forty miles or more, into tho "jaws of hell," as it were, into the hard-packed snow, whose heart the rnow-plow was penetrating and .scatter? ing to tho four winds of heaven, its par j tides enveloping us to the exclusion ol any sight whatever of .surrounding objtcts; into Iho c.tb, tho tiue, Hour liko, snowy particles outnu in such quan? tities as to blind us and create a sort of suffocation for the lime being. It. is a fight of man against nature, a .struggle of nrt, of invention, of pluck, energy on.l nerve, for it requires great nerve aud pluck to sit there on these engines as they plunge into?what? None cau leil. i It seems like braving deatii. Ahead, no? thing can bo seen?nothing is known, Blindfolded, as it were, on wo go, si nig? gling liko demou.s, those two engines seem. A little clearing, Grace say-*, "Mind the rough track, Aleck." Quick? ly "Aleck" uctB. Again, "Whistle him down," nays Grace. Tool! goes No. 10. aud toot! responds N* j. 23. Agaiu auea'l? tttat'q?let vot?^'OTTe^nYr^?^W; Aleck." Two wbiatlee ag*tn,>ro*pons?', n?d o? wo fly, through this cut, on a short distance, uud into aoother we go, for wo aro in tho rolling country now, where the cuts are frequent, and where the wind had done its worst.- Into, through, and out of another cut we ge. Qrace opens a side window, looks ahead, and sees a long deep oat that locks like an ugly customer. Graoe warms up a liiiie, elides the window to its piaoe, and says, "Now for it, Aleck. Give it to her." Then we bow our beads, and with bent forms await the shock. Sure enough, Grace's opinion was ? oorreot. An ugly customer it was. Into it 100 feet we went. Striking the sdge of the snow-bank at an extremely rapid pace, we penetrated 100 feet, and then stop? ped dead, completely buried in enow. We could feel a trembling of the iron I monsters as they met the stubborn re? sistance opposing their seemingly irre-' jSistibio headway; that was all. Not a word was spoken until the anow oleared J away. Then we looked upon each other and smiled at eaoh other's sppearanoe. Not a vestige of clothing could be seen. We were in reality men clothed in enow. With a qaiet smile, Grace remarked, "That was a good run, Aleck." Very soon the working seotionB were upon: us, and the same scene was enacted es bef ore described. The "digging out" process noon released the snow-plows, and at it they again went. I went buck to one of the rear trains, entirely satisfied with my experience in "SUOW-backing." [lirainerd Cur. of Minneapolis Tribune.
