OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS. ANNUAL DEPARTMENT BEPOBT8. We continue this morning the publication of the reports which accompanied the Presi- dtnt’s message to Congress. As we give them in a condchsed form—setting fbrth all the principal arguments, reeemmendations and facts—they vnll doubtless be read more universally than if given in full detail: T REPORT or Tnc COMPTROLLER OF THE CCR- .... RKNCY. The report of the Hon. Freeman Clarke, Comptroller of the Currency, occupies nearly thirteen octavo pages, with an appendix of 130 pages, containing reports of the condi tion of the Rational banks, abstracts of quar terly statements, etc,. ^The Comptroller commences his report by stating that during the year, i-:l n -« bank’s were organired, 731 State banks converted into national associations, making the total number to November 1st, 1,001; of which 079 were new hanks and 923 conversions from State banks. After giving the amount of paper money in circulation, the Comptrol ler proceeds to urge a return to a specie ba sis, and suggests, as the most available meth od of attaining it, the funding and conse quent retirement of a portion of the inactive circulation, ahown to bo now held in reserve. By a gold valuation of our imports and ex ports, it is estimated that a balance baa ac crued against this country during the four years previous to the 30th of June last of $309,000,000. As. a remedy for this the Comptroller recommends an increase of the rate of duties just in proportion as the rate verytliing in are satisfied that with five years experience And cv L We are _ _ | | and personal attention to business, wc can make it advantageous to the Interest of purchasers to buy of ns.

Invitation to Give Evidence.—The committee on the financial operations of the State sends us the following for publication, and we call especial attentiou to it: ■ Mu.LEDGEVJLI.lt, Nov. 38th, 3865. I Radicalism Rebuked by the RadicRla. The Louisville^oumal says: ‘-The New York Evening Post has the reputation of be ing a radical journal, but it evidently has no respect for and is disgusted with those men both in Congress and out or it, who appear bent upon doing-what they can to humiliate and exasperate the Southern people, to make the work of restoration as difficult and as slow as possible, and to put off the period of final national harmony as long os possible. -We are therefore gratified to find in that ablepaper of tho 4th,the following rebuke of those mischief-makers, men of bad eminence and worse principles, or rather of no princi ples except their own passions: “Let windy orators, if such be their taste, exhale their suspirations in harsh rebukes and indignant censures; many of them have no other means of attracting attention, while pro fessions of loyalty just noware cheap; but the legislature of a nation that has won the plau dit of the world by its greatness in war should aim to win an equal approbation by its greatness in peace. As vigor, sternness, passion, relentless energy aud endurance be come tho one state, so magnanimity, kindli ness, conciliation, and the sense of justice and humanity become the other. Only nnr Whereas, we have been convened for the pur- row minds and corrnpt hearts over desire to S£C55-SKSJK’sr.S PfM _ w examination of Hie financia^operatioDs of the State of Georgia from 1861 to the present time,” and de sire, without prejudice or partiality, to discharge tho duty imposed.

In tlie meantime, by a steady reduction of the volume of irredeem able currency-and consequent reduction of prices, wc' would be able once more to place our manufactured and agricultural produc tions on a footing that would enable them to enter into successful competition with those of other nations in tho markets of the world. As the first step to be taken towards a (eduction of the Government issues used as currency, the conversion of all the interest bearing legal tender notes into 5-'20 six per cent, bonds, is urged. It is also suggested that the national currency act be so amended as to allow an increase of the limit to tour hundred millions of dollars, on condition only that all the banks be required to redeem their notes in New York, Boston or Philadelphia, and ijlso that an issue of six per cent. o-20 bonds be authorized to the amount that it will require to secure tlie additional circula tion under the provisions of the act, which bonds tlic banks, when organized, afaall pur chase as each may require of the Secretary of the Treasury, at such fair rates ns lie may trom time to time prescribe, but not less than their par value, and pay for the same in tho United States legal tender notes, and all notes so received, shall be cancelled and destroyed. The tariff, it is suggested, can l>e so adjus ted as to produce' $120,000,000, of which $100,000,000 should be raised on whisky, malt liquors and wines. It is estimated that the cotton crop of next year will amount to be tween two and a half and three millions of biles, on which might lie levied a tax of eight cents per pound, which would realize •tls0.000.000, more than sufficient to pay the interest on the public debt after tlic entire amount js funded. Tlie license and stamp duties, it is thought, could be dispensed with after the next fiscal year. . . ANNUAL REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OK WAR. The report of the Hon. E. M. Stanton, Sec retary of War, occupies 48 pages. It is ne cessarily considerably devoted to the opera tions of tlic army and the closing record of the rebellion, much of which is already famil iar to tile general reader. After stating that it is proposed to reduce the military estab lishment to 50,000 men, the Secretary pro ceeds to give a history of the events that suc ceeded tlie end of the war, sueli as the stop page of tlie draft and recruiting, curtailment of the purchase of arms, reduction of the ar my, &c. WAR APPROPRIATIONS, KTC. Tlie war appropriations at the last sessipn of Congress amounted to tlic sum of $510,- 240,231 70. Tlie estimates for tlic next fiscal year, commencing June 30, 1SG3,- arc $33,- 814,401 83. These estimates are based upon a standing force of 30,000 men, sty organized ns to admit of an increase,without additional organizations, to 82,000. troops of all arms. The force to he retained is small compared with that which was organized to subdue the rebellion. But the- only reasons demanding greater force are—1st, renewal of the insur rection ; 2d, a foreign war. For cither or both emergencies tlie national resources re main ample. Tnc chief demands for war, as shown by our experience, are—1st, troops; 2d, anus and ammunition; 3d,clothing; 4th, transportation, and 5th, subsistence supplies. | ARMS AND AMMUNITION. The disbanded armies were 'allowed to take home their arms at a nominal price.— The government retains in its arsenals more than a million of the best quality of arms and equipments. The artillery on hand tasks the department for its means of storage. The manufacture of ammunition requires materials, for which we have in some degree relied upon other countries, because they could not be had cheaper. For this reason, and to guard against any mischance, three years' stock of material for ammunition has already been kept in store, and the supply on hand is ample for any war that may be waged against us by any nation. CLOTHING, SUBSISTENCE, ETC. After selling or distributing among freed- men and refugees all damaged or irregular clothing, the stock of clothing and material in tlie quartermaster's depots is sufficient for any armies that may he called into service.— The water transports and rolling stock, mules, wagons ami horses, held by tlie gov ernment were adequate to the movement and supply of larger forces, in less time, than had heretofore been known in war. The gov ernment has disposed or is disposing of this transportation, but it remains in this country, and can answer any exigency. Army subsis tence is derived from tlie country in which military operations are carried on, or supplied from other markets.' During the war this most vital branch of the service never failed. It answer to the demand, andis every ready to meet the national call. It is plain, there fore, that the abundance of our means for wax enables the government of the United States to reduce the standing force to a lower de gree than any other nation. Unless war l>e actually raging, tlie .military force can he brought within very narrow limits. However sudden the exigency calling for an exhibi tion of military power, it can he promptly met. With our education, habits and ex perience, the nation, while in the midst of peace, is prepared for war. RECK CITING—ENLISTMENT OK BOVS, ETC. From the report of the Adjutant General it will be seen that the recruiting service of the regular army is progressing favorably, tlio rttimWnfjVKvrnifjfinlitijor] s,u -~ —1- from October 31, 1864, to October 1,- 1865, having been 19,555. The regiments compris ing it have been distributed to stations, and their ranks are rapidly filling up, thus fa bling the department to relieve rcgiineata of volunteer troop*. The present authorised strength of the regular regiments i* 952 offi cers and 41.810 enlisted men. This estimate i.< made on the basis of 42 privates to a com pany. the number now allowed by law, at all except frontier posts. It is recommended that the maximum standard be fixed at 100 enlis ted men to a company. Tlie Adjutant General recommends that provisions be made by law for enlisting one rview with the president mi the j hundred boys, not under twelve years of age, as musicians, as was done before the laws of 1864 and 1865 prohibiting the enlistment of minors under the age of sixteen years; that the laws by which one half theix pay, during the period of their absence, 19 lost bv officers absent with leave for more than thirty days in oue year, except from wounds or sickness, be repealed, and that an act be passed pro viding for the enlistment of meritorious disa bled soldi™ as superintendents of the nation al ermines, numbering about forty, each to receive thr pay and allowance of an ordnance sergeant. comne»Y>?fs nr t; The re plication!

The reports concludes by assigning several causes which contributed to the overthrow of, [tho rebellion, such as the steadfast :«dhcrcnce I of the President to the measure of emAuripn- ting the slaves in the Confederate States, whereby the.Confederates wore crippled nnd discouraged; the resolute purpose of con- wit h his to ancing a loo.- ing up his j which the tr ail tour t'«ct so large a* water pot* • ou the''fop • ■i v. i:h Wlurh emors of they ren- Hing up the otic measures adopted by tl loyal States, and the efficient dd dered the "War Department in Adi ranks of tlic army and furnishing succor an relief to the sick and wounded, and the lait of the people in the national success, as man ifested by their si credit.

There is hardly opposition enough threatened to keep up a wholesome agitation of sentiment; nnd when such is the case, then bodies of men are apt to run into extremes- They excite each other by reci procity of fervor, and find no checks in a kecii and watchful hostility. But let these legislators remember that tlie people are look ing on, that the press ia alive, and that any departure from the genuine, distinctive, fun damental principles of onr democratic repub lican system will be at once announced rfnd earnestly reproved. :• < A Items. 33T* Crime is rampant in Nashville.

New York.— New York, Dec. 8.—The Post says business in Wall street is extremely dull, and the only feature of importance is the increase of public confidence as indicated by the rise in government securities, and by the decline of gold. This improvement is attributed in part to the satisfactory tone of the President’s message, and to the decided policy of the Secretary of the Treasury, relative to con traction, and to the prospects of a reduction in the expenses of the war and navy debts.
