the following extract from the Pres

R, for nine months ending August
31st, 1874:
Mr. Presidnnt Wadley names the

and the expenses at 2,629,861,91 /
leaving $571,245,98.
The operations embrace a period
of on y nine months immediately pre
ceding the first ol September, owing
to a change made in the fiscal \ear
in order io dose accounts at a peri

The repot t speaks tersely ot intehsi
