Til 1S30 he WftP Cxilpt'I to SlhpriA THE TREASURY DEFARTMENE. , The report of the Secretary of the Treasury makes a most gratifying exhibit.of the national finances. The receipts for the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1866, were $558,000,000, and for the quarter ending September 30,1866, SI 58,- 000,000. The actual income exceeeded the estimates by $90,000,000, and the expenditures were $200,000,000 less than tb% estimates. The decrease of the public debt from the highest'point is slated by the Secretary as follows : . - - Debt August, 1865 $2,757,803,686 Debt Oct. 31, 1866 2,551,434,121 Decrease $206,379,565 The balance in the Treasury on the 1st of October, 1866, was $142,000,000.

To meet these obj ections, and at the same time attain the desired end, it is recommended that the amount of circulation be increased, but only in proportien to the decrease of legal tender notes. “ Bearing in mind," says, the “report, “ the regular monthly reduction of “ legal tenders at the rate of four millions per “ month, as provided by law, an increase of “ national currency not fo exceed twenty-five “ millions, to be issued at the rate of one or “ two millions per month, would probably meet “ all the wants of all the States for two years “ to come.” Of the amendments to the National Banking act recommended by Mr. Hulburd we can spe cify but two at this time, which are as follows : ury, was $2,681,000,000.

T)R0MPTED by a desire to benefit our coun- V 7 try, and also to establish an important in science, we have concluded to offer to the pbllc the above named remedies for the cun and prevention of Hog Cholera. Medical gentlemen of skill and experience began a se ries of examinations when the cholera first began in this country; after having performed numerous post mortem examinations tipon the bodies of hogs which had died of cholera, and after great research and investigation to determine the nature of the disease, led by (lie lights arising therefrom, they undertook the cure of the complaint by various remedies. They found several articles beneficial,' but success was not fully attained to until the above named medicine rf-fis tompounded. The medicine was not sought out fop the purpose of sale, but the great success attending its use has induced them to form a company and pbtain a Patent. We offer ft as.being, under the accompanying directions, full}’ capable of arresting any epidemic of hog cholera, and prompt in giving relief when properly admin istered. \Ye Confidently believe that the rem* edy is a specific; yet we do not recommend it as infallible in all cases, though we have never known it to fail, either as a cure or preventive against the further spread of the disease when used agreeably to the directions, notwith standing those free from thedisease have been kept in close proximity with those diseased. It is a great Toni<\ and will successfully remove Mange, Sore Head and Vermin, either tfff which will affect the health of the hog, and stop his growth and development. Nothing will make hogs so thrifty as this remedy. We offer no patent remedy (or the cure of man, hut we think that the public will esteem us as benefactors when they consider that we have, for years, beer, investigating the diseases of domestic animals/ which form not only a part of the wealth of the country, bui afford sus tenance to man. Allow us to add that bog cholera is but a mild disease when taken in Its early stages with this remedy, which will also remove worms from the bowels, and if administered once a month by the directions, will forever prevent any injuries from the Tri- ihina Spiralis, which produce such alarming Symptoms in persons who eat trichinous pork.

But four month af ter, that is, on October 31, 1866, the debt was $2,551,000,000, showing a decrease during these four months of $99,000,0(0. With the present vast income of the government of the United States the debt would necessarily continue to decrease more rapidly, because nearly all the claims for war expenses have been paid. Bnt the Secretary says, “ It is not expected, nor is it desirable, perhaps, that the same rate of reduction should be continued."

The following description of the late Mr. Poe, the poet and critic, is from the pen of Mr. Gallagher. To any one who is at all acquaint ed with the writings of the author of the “ Raven,” it must appear a faithful portrait, drawn by a master artist. Poor Poe ! his spirit we trust is now dwelling with the myriad of the happy beings in another world, whose existence he has so often described in his sweet song : “ Poe seems to us to have been one of those who never understood themselves—neither their capacities, their actual wants, nor their duties to themselves or others. A friend, a husband, traveler—a man always in need, suf fering in spirit and afflicted in body—a scholar, a poet, and a novelist—a creature of imagina tion all compact,’ and we might almost corn- plate the quotation, by saying a lunatic and a lover—be had seen much, thought much, and suffered much, ami through hard experience had obtained all sorts of sense but common sense, lacking which, his life that might have been made most honorable to himself and use-y ful to his fellow men, he the next, thing to threw away. Perverse in infancy, dissolute in youth, impulsive and uncontrollable in man hood, he passed from birth,- to death, like a star whose light struggles through cloud-racks from its uprising to its going down. A~ Beautifnl Extract,' The following eloquent passage we clip from the address of Col. Manlove, of the Vicksburg Herald, before the Mississippi State Press asso ciation, recently convened in Jackson : “ The Southern Cross no longer gleams out ’mid the wild light of battle : the sword of the vanquished iS*sheathed, and the land is gloomy with the harmless sepuchres of our martyred dead. But when years upon years have passed away—when the last of the present generation sleep with their fathers, aud new forms throng the old familiar places—when faction shall have hushed, and justice holds the scales—then as bright as day, and as free from blemish and «tain will stand forth in bnght relief upon the - ew V* senV*-of historic fame, the record of the South, I there will be dearer to the hearts of lier children now m the hour of sorrow, than when on the march to victory, she won the admiration of the world.

The Secretary recommends the further on- traction of the currency with a view to return ing' to specie payments, and proposes a modi fication of the tarriff. REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY. Since the last annual report, 62 national banks have been organized, of whicn 51 were new organizations, and 11 were conversions of State to national banks, making the total number new in operation 1,647, having an ag gregate paid-in capital of $418,000,000, owned by 200,000 stockholders. Sixteen national banks have been etfclttded during the year for various reasons, otherwise the list wcuM num ber 1,663. The total resources of these 1,649 banks on the 1st of October last were $1,525,- 493,360, and their liabilities $1,024,274,386, leaving a surplus for capital and earnings of $501,221,574. Daring the year ending Octo ber 1, 1866, the increase of capital, bonds, and circulation of national banks as follows: Increase of capital paid in $21,515,557 Increase in bonds deposited to se cure circulation 56,247,750 Increase of circulation issued 101,824,698 The apparent increase of over $100,000,000 in national currency, the report essays to explain away by the statement that during the same period State banks, which have been converted into national banks, have withdrawn $50,000,000 of their own currency, thus ma king the actual increase of currency only about $50,0(0,000. After the recital of the facts given above, Acting Comptroller Hnbburd makes several recom’men'dations, which wiil be noticed seria tim. ■ First, in reference to redemptions, it is urged, 1 -with great cogency of reasoning, that the national banks of the country should re deem their notes at New York. At present seventeen cities are designated as places tor the redemption of national currency, while, practically, the operation is confined tp three, to wit : v New York/ Boston, and Philadelphia; for, of the 1,647 national banks, 1.320 redeem in these cities. One point in the argument iq. favor of redemption at New York is put so tersely that we cannot refrain from quoting it: . t . • .. ,, : In recommending redemptions in'New York there is no intention tp ignore the claims of any other section of the country. There are cities of commercial importance in the Middle, Western, and Southern States, whose financial interests demand consideration. The notes of banks located in those cities are, by the pro visions of the law as it now stands, redeema ble in New Y'ork and the managers of those banks would not have it otherwise. If the law did not require it, they would voluntarily redeem there. The proposed amendment only requires ail other banks to do the same thing. It will give those cities and the banks in those cities a currency that is vt'orth phf in NeW York, instead'of a depreciated cilrrpncy that would be a continual clog upon the business operaTons.' If any particular section not tributary to New York, the fact that' the banks of that section arc required to redeem ia New Y"ork will not make it tributary,' bet will make such redemptions easy r.nd in nowise burden some! The commercial importance of any place will force its own recognition ; m*ney can to.drawn from it only for the payment of its debts. Trade flows in natural channels, and money goes with it; wherever trade cen tres, there money will accumulate sufficiently for its wants. If money is arbitrarily concen trated contrary to this principle, it will flow equally complete, be required instead ; and that when the capital stock of a hank has been impaired by losses, the capital stock anfl cirqfi- lation shall be reduced accordingly, or the los ses made good by a pro rata assessment upon the stockholders, and in case of failure to do ore or the other within thirty days after such loss, the Comptroller of the Currency may wind up the afl\. ; rsof the bank. These amend ments seem so just that is ip to .be, hoped Congress. The report closes with a eulogy of the na tional banking system, which we advise peo ple to lay aside for reading a few years hence. Of course the system is established, and its most vigorous oponents at the time that it was broached avail themselves of whatever advan tage it may offer. But when the currency shall be contracted in earnest, and fortunes begin to melt into thin air, and banks shake and tumble, then will be the time to test the national bank system ; and not till then can its eulogy honestly be written. INTERNAL REVENUE. The total amuunt raised by internal revenue during the year was $319,906,984.17, an in crease of nearly $90,000,000 over the receipts of the proceeding fiscal year. The receipts of the coming year are estimated at $285,000,000. The commissioner recommends that the amount of income exempted from taxation be $1,000, instead of 600, as at present, and that the time for returning income lie changed from May 1st to January 1st. He, also, urges the reduction of the numlier of taxable articles and a revis ion of the system under which cigars are taxed. independence. He was again captured and transported for life time to Nevtchinsk in the North of Siberia. In 1865 he found in the bed of a river masses of melted quartz mixed.with iron ore. His Brazilian and California expe rience now came in play, and prosecuting his search he discovered anti secured diamonds to the value of $40,000, and near the close of summer he found one large diamond, weighing 75 carats, and worth, had it proved perfect, at least $250,000. He resolved to make his es cape. if possible, through the Chinese Empire. The smaller diamonds he secured in a belt about bis person, and to make sure of the lar ger one, he forced out one of bis eyes, and in the vacant orbit hid the highly-prized jewel.— On his way through China he was robbed by a banditti of his belt and small diamonds, save a few which lie sold to procure the necessaries of life. After many dangers he arrived at Calcut ta and sailed for Marseilles. He is now in Paris and iu great misery and poverty, not be- lUg able to sell Ills jewcll-. as , it proves to be f iled with black spots, and almost worthless. A good story is told of the late Father Mul len, of New Orleans. Gen. Butler once sent for him to bury an Irish Roman Catholic, then in Y'ankee uniform. His alacrity in coming surprised Butler, who expected contumacious- tbat they will receives the prompt attention of ne f®iJ ^ •/,' 1 „ . , “How is it, rather Mullen, you come to bury a dead Y'ankee. ?.” 1 He replied: “That, General, is a rite 1 will perform for al! of yuu with pleasure.” “Y'ou can' do anything if you only have pa tience to wait,’’ said an old fogy to his son.— “ Water may be carried in a sieve if you can onlv wait.’’. . , . .... • .. , ■ “IIow long?" queried the son, an impudent and impatient Y'oung America, who could hardly wait for the old man’s obituary. “Till if freezes. - ” T.

GLADSTONE S INTERVIEW WIPH THE POPE. The Corriere Ttaliono professes to have received from a person worthy of credit the following account of the interview between Pius IX and Mr. j Gladstone : Mr. Gladstone found the Pope as calm as possible. Politics were not mentioned until the end of the conversation, and it was Mr. Gladstone who took the initiative. The Pope complained of the Austrian government, while fully admitting that events in Germany had put it out of the power of that government to defend the Holy Sea, and almost justified its conduct. Mr. Gladstone congatulated the Pope on the arrival at Rome of the Antibes Le gion. On this the Pope said “ Terrestrial le gions have the defect of often failing of tqe encl they desire to attain. Moreover, wliat matters it to me what shall happen ? Rest assL 'ed that when thfe French are gone I shall not be less protected, seeing that the legions which defend thfe Church neyer faiL” . Ln'sayiug that the Pope raised his eyes to Heaven. Mr. Glad stone wished to speak of Italy, and he asked whkt’ truth there might be in the preliminaries of negotiations with the Government of Flor ence mentioned in the journals. This is the Popej5 reply : “ I do not read the journals ; I know nothing in that respect; I am ignorant of everything ; all I know is that in dying I shall not leave entire to my successor the sacred and inviolable inheritance of St. Peter.” The con versation on Italy haying ceased, the Church in Ireland was qkiken’of/ aiid the Pope warmly commended to Mr. Gladstone his well-beloved flock. Then; smiling, he added, “ If one of these days I should leave Rome, although Ire land is far from the centpe-of Christianity, I should not object, perhaps to choose it for my domicil. Malta, a place almost entirely mer- 5at* again, just as water will find its level.
