The Scouts in the Treasury.

Yesterday afternoon Mr. William F. Cody, (Buffalo Bill) and Mr. J. B. Omohundro, (Texas Jack,) accompanied by Mr. F. A. Aiken, of the Republican and Mr. Thomas Shailer, of the secret service division, made a tour a of the Treasury Department.

The Distinguished visitors created quite a sensation among the fair maids, and it was a doubtful question which was attracted the most, the ladies, or Bill and Jack.

After passing through the various rooms, the party brought up in the vault, and on being hold that it contained six hundred millions of dollars, Buffalo Bill exclaimed, "Lock me up and let me die here!"

The visit was a very pleasant one owing to the kindness and attention of the superintendent, Mr. George B. McCartee, assisted by Colonel Evans; and the celebrated scouts were more than pleased, and as they expressed it "would like to live there forever."
