While the demands upon the Treasury for the
fiscal year, 1858, is $139,688 71, more than were
the demands upon the Treasury during the fiscal
year, 1857,_ still the receipts into the Treasury
(not including the proceeds of the sale of State
Bonds) from all sources, except the Western &
Atlantic Railroad, have been $23,447 60 less than
they were in 1867. Tbo reason for this is: 1st.
most of the old tax claims that were worth any
thing, were collected last year; and 2dly, there
was received in 1858, $11,332 68, less from the
general tax of 1857, than was received in 1857
from the general tax of 1856. The increa cd re
ceipts from the Western and Atlantic Railroad be
ing this year $91,500 more than that of last year.
The payment into the Treasury in 1357. from the
road being $108,500.
So much for the past. As regards the future,
the Comptroller thinks we shall raise for the en
suing fiscal year, at least, $375,000. From the
State Road $300,000 annually—Bank tax $31,-
120 11 ; dividend from hank stock $29,575 00;
tax on Rail Roads, $6,204 94; miscellaneous
items $5,775 88; making a total of $749,675 82.
And the Comptroller thinks that the appropria
tions for id59 will not be so large as the past year
by $150,000.
Assuming then that the receipts "into tkc Treas
ury for the fiscal year 1859 will be, as above, and
we will have a total of about $7GC,»21 04. The de
mand upon the Treasury for the same year will
approximate $548,575 00. After meeting the
ordinary demands upon the Treasury and reducing
the public debt $45,000 and allowing $50,000 for
miscellaneous or extraordinary appropriations,
there Wilt be a surplus of $221,356 04, to be ap
plied as the Legislature may see proper to direct.
The Public Debt.
So far as I can discover from tho Treasurer’s
Report and the various Acts of the Legislature,
the public debt in bonds, now amouuts to $2,631.-
000, which will be increased to $3,531,000, (un
less before reduced,) when the remaining ($900,-
000) of ths bonds for the subscription to the At-
lantic and Gulf Railroad are issued. The follow
ing will show the character, and the various bonds
and when due, viz:

Poor School, and other Statistical Information.
As the subject of Education—embracing Com
mon Schools. Free, Ac. &c.—always engrosses
the attention of the Representatives of the people,
and, since being in office, having been frequently
called upon personally by members of the Legisla
ture for information—although not one of my offi
cial duties—I have prepared, and present with
this report, a table marked “E,” containing iu a
small space much useful information connected
with this and other subjects of legislation. The
table contains the number of polls returned in
each county in 1857; the voters in each county iu
1857; the number of poor children returned to the
Treasurer for a participation in the Poor School
Fund in each county in 1357; the amount drawn
by each county, for the Poor School Fund; tiie
amount paid to the members of the Legislature of
each county; the total amount drawn from the Treas
ury by each county iu i*57 ; and the net amount,
(cents not counted") of tax paid into the Treasury
by each county, in 1*57.
The number of polls in 1857, were - 97,149
The number of voters in 1857, - 104,394
The number of Poor children returned in
1857. 48,679
Amount Poor School Fund distributed in
1857, $30,604
Amount paid to members of the Legisla
ture iu 1857, .... $95,760
Total amount paid to counties in 1857, $126,864
Net tax from all counties in 1857. - $393,713
There were also returned in one hundred and
five counties in 1857, 83,551 children between the
ages of 8 and 16 years, and in the same 105 coun
ties the number of polls returned were 87,065.—
But as these returns were not full, they have not
been placed in table “E.”
These data were obtained from the Treasury and
Comptroller General’s office—except as to the vo
ters, which is “official.”
It will be seen that several counties failed to re
turn any Poor Children iu 1857. To remedy this
omission as far as possible, the Treasurer deducted
20 per cent, upon the former return, and proceeded
to the distribution accordingly.
Table -*E” also contains the amount of tax in
dollars (cents not included,) raised by taction in
each county for Educational or Poor School purposes
1857. This information lias been obtained
through correspondence with the Ordinaries ot
the. several counties, and where the Ordinaries
have failed to respond to my call, through Clerks
of the Superior and Inferior Courts, and others,
vho have sought and obtained the information
from the proper source. It will be seen that a
few counties have not been beard from—although
as many as three letters to different persons were
sent to each of these counties. For all purposes,
however, the information obtained will answer.—
It will be perceived, therefore, that the amount
raised iu the 112 counties heard from by taxation
for Poor School purposes in 1357, was 65,172.
The amount paid to these same 112 counties from
the State Treasury for the same purpose, was
$29,354—making the total Poor School Fund ot
these counties in 18.37, only $94,586.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

ITS RECEPTION AT ST. LOUIS—OVATION
TO MR. BUTTERFIELD.
A great feat is accomplished. What lias hither
to been regarded as a visionary and speculative
enterprise has been established beyond all doubt,
and St. Louis and San Francisco have been
brought within twenty-four days travel of each
other on a stage line, and a route which will ad
mit of easier and safer travel than did the trip from
St. Louis to Philadelphia thirty years ago.
Mr. Bailey, an agent of the Post Office depart
ment, we believe, was the only passenger who
came through last night the others having stop
ped at Springfield, from fatigue. Mr. Baily being
called out hy gentlemen who liad assembled at
the Planters’ House, on the occasion, gave a
brief but interesting history of his trip. The
great difficulty in the way was the want of water
in some of the deserts, but this was remedied to a
very considerable extent by the foresight of t lie
company in sending water forward for the use of
the animals. The company has more than two
hundred stations on the road

As a matter of course, the reception of the news | m . )king a vigorous and fearful use ot sticks.—
by telegraph from Jefferson City, that the over
land mail, with Mr. Butterfield, who had been
chiefly instrumental in putting it into successful
operation, would arrive in the city hy the Pacific
railroad, created very considerable feeling.
It was at once determined that a fitting recep
tion should be given to Mr. Butterfield, and be
fore 8 o'clock a large number of onr most
respectable citizens had assembled for that pur
pose.
The procession was was -formed in front of the
Planters house last evening at 8 o’clock, headed
by the St Louis Silver baud iu Arnots band wagon
drawn by six horses and proceeded to the depot
of the Pacific railroad. On the arrival of the train
at a little before nine o’clock Mr. Butterfield was
received, on behalf of the reception committee and | |” “£ ,. vell j n<r k - ( . ars wer ,,
a large concourse of citizens present, by John i’-j r ounds would prove fatal.
Darby esq , who said:
Sir: On behalf of the committee and the citizens
of St. Louis, I extend to you a hearty congratula
tion on the achievement of an undertaking worthy
the genius and perseverance of an American. [Ap
plause]
You nave demonstrated to tho nation the prac
ticability of bringing communication from San
Francisco to tbe centre of the valley of the Mis
sissippi in the wonderfully short space of twenty
four days, and for the accomplishment of which
you deserve the thanks and gratitude of the whole
American people. We have experienced for years
the difficulty of communicating with our breth
ren on the shores of the Pacific, and for ten years
have been striving for means which would obviate
those difficulties and bring us in close contact.—
You sir, have accomplished that object by your
indefatigable exertions, 'and secured a resuit so
desirable, and fraught with so many blessings, that
you are entitled to the warmest gratitude of the
American people. You sir, have inaugurated a
system winch though yet in incipient stages of its
operation, is of paramount importance iu tlie re
sults which it will secure in social, political, and
mercantile points of view, at the same time il
lustrative of the transcendence of American skill,
enterprise and untiring perseverance. In conclu
sion, let me again return to yon ojr most hearty
thanks and congratulations on your noble achieve
ment.
Iu reply, Mr. Butterfield expressed the emo
tions which filled his heart at this demonstration
of the good-will and approbation of his fellow cit
izens. and said they were not the less pleasurable
by being unexpected. He regarded it as the hap
piest moment of liis life, in view of the fact
rhathehad accomplished an object which had so
long been desired by the citizens of St. Lotus
and had received their hearty approval for his
labor.
Great difficulties had lain in the way, but what
obstacles he continued cannot be surmounted by
American enterprise? [applause j lie had en
tered upon the work with a determination to suc
ceed, and hy the help of his assistants (whom lie
complimented very highly) had succeeded. But
the operations were as yet imperfect, this being
the first trial. For the next six years thirty thou
sand miles of the mail travelling will be accom
plished every day. Nations had taken hold of
great works but had not reported. An Atlantic
telegraph had been laid, it was true, but the over
land mail was ahead of the submarine lightning
at last, and had renorted. [Applause] He
thanked the people and the committee for their
cordial welcome, and concluded amid continued
applause. *
Upon leaving the depot, the carriages proceeded
to the starting point, on Fourth street preceded by
the band chariot, and passing around Fine did not
draw up until they reached the post office, when
the mail was turned over to tho proper officials.—
Some extra bags containing the San Francisco
Evening Bulletin, the special edition of the Alta
California, and other papers, were retained and
put out at the hotel. Here they were opened and
the papers handed round to the assembled specta
tors,who read them with apparent great interest.—
The Alta California was most in demand, as it
sported a fine speeial head of “by the Overland
Mail,’’and an imposing picture of a mail coach
with four horses in full gallop. It was a weekly
edition, aud bore evidence of the most commend
able enterprise on the part of iu publishers.
During the melee that ensued, four or five, or
perhaps six, additional shots were fired. When
the combatants were separated, it was ascertain
ed that Jas. Owen was shot in the hand, through
the thigh, and in tire back above the hips, rang
ing into the lungs. It was thought his wounds
were mortal, and that he could not survive until
this morning. Upon bringing Sam. Cowan to
the city, it was ascertained that he was mortally
wounded by a pistol shot, the ball having entered
the upper part of the forehead and ranged back
ward. where it lodged.
Gen. Joel A. Battle was horribly mangled about
the head from blows inflicted with a heavy stick,
and it is reported that his skull is fractured, from
hich he was suffering the most excruciating pain
entertained that his
Mr. Thomas Battle.
who was standing near wh< n the affray com
menced. received a slight though painful flesh
wound in the w rist from a pistol shot. A pistol
hall passed through the coat of the gate keeper
at the ring near where the tight occurred. We
heard of several others who were slightly injuied
from blows inflicted by sticks, among others Mr.
W. A. Davis. It is a miracle that several others
were not killed or wounded, where so many were
in the vicinity.
Tho fight occurred on the opposite side of the
amphitheatre from where the ladies were seated,
though a few were in the immediate vicinity, who
were greatly alarmed. If the officers of the fair
had hei-ii advised that a fight was contemplated or
expected, they would have taken prompt steps to
have suppressed it by having the parties arrested.
A gentleman who heard that a collision was ap
prehended went to the parties and made them
promise that nothing of the kind should occur,
otherwise lie would have them arrested. But they
disregarded their promise, and the consequences
have been truly awful.

[From the St. Louis Republican, Oct. 11]
We publish below Mr. Bailey's journal of the
route taken by' tbe overland mail on its first trip
from San Francisco to St. Louis, and also the
distances between the different joints, and the
time required for the performance of the trip.—
Mr. Bailey says that at least four days’ time were
lost on this trip from causes which are not likely
to occur hereafter. The necessity lor his imme-
mediate return to Washington city prevented his
furnishing a more detailed account of his trip for

The extraordinary fact of playing eight games
at the same time without seeing the board was
performed on Monday at Cafe de la Regence. by

open as usual to the public, and in it sat the eight
gentlemen who consented to be Mr. Morphy’s an
tagonists. The other jiart of the Cafe, further on
and in which two billiard tables are placi d, was
appointed to the use of the blindlold player, w ho
sat at the end with his back to the public. A cer
tain line was marked out, beyond which only two
gentlemen could pass, M. Journoud and M Ar-
nous de Riviere, who had undertaken to annoutfee
tiie moves on both sides. The latter gentleman
officiated foi the four first players, MM. Bauclier
Bierwith, Bornemann, and Guibert, and tho
former for the last four, MM. Lcqucsne, Potier,
Prcti and Seguin. At half past 12, the e.ombat-
lants having taken their places in the presence of
about 250 lovers of the noble game, the play com
menced hy Mr. Morphy taking the move, and
signifying that in every one ot thegeight eases he
played KP2 Some of his opponents replied by
the similar move whilst others played differently
so as to lead to what is called irregular openings.
The play then went on without interruption for
net less than ten hours during which time Mr.
Morphy never took tlie slightest refreshment.—
The definite result was that the blindfold player
won six of the games and drew two, his oppo
nents being vanquished in the following order:
ML.Preti (afterseven hours and a half) Potier,
Baucher, Bornemann, Bierwith, and Segitin, (at
half-past 10.) The two players who succeeded in
drawing their games were MM. I.uquesne and
Guibert. At the end of this wonderful exhibition
Mr. Morphy iMd not appear much fatigued.

The Murderous Affray at the Yashiille fair
Grounds.
The fair ground was yesterday, about 12 o-clock,
the scene of a terrible affray, which resulted in
the death of one man and the mortal wounding
of two or three others. It occurred on the prom
enade back of the upper tier of seats, and cre
ated the greatest excitement imaginable. So un
expected was it to those iu attendance upon the
fair that it was impossible to ascertain tiie facts
attending the sanguinary affair, and we can only
give the most intelligible narrative we could de
duce from the mass of contradictory reports
which were Hying with almost lightning rapidity
over the grounds.
It appears that a feud of a very bitter nature
has for some time existed between John, James,

N. P. Dorsey, formerly register of the United
States land office in Los Angeles, was shot and
mortally wounded at El Monte, in Los Angeles
county, by his father-in-law, W. W T . Rubottom, on
the 6th inst. 51r. and Mrs. Dorsey quarrelled,
and she went to her father's home. Mr. Dorsey
followed her. Mr. Rubottom ordered him to keep
away. Mr. D., pistol in band, entered the vard
and went upon the porch. Mr. R. met him with
a gun—both fired at the same moment, and Dor
sey fell mortally wounded. Rubottom is justified
by the people and by the oflfeers of the laiv. Dor
sey was from Georgia.

from San Francisco during about two years, was
called a fortnight since in the district court at

moned. Of these forty-six were excused from
serving because of s)mpathy with the committee,
three from prejudice against that o. ganizatiou, and
one found incompetent, having recently arrived in
tiie country, and entertaining no decided opinion
on the subject ut vigtlancism. The case was con
tinued to next term.

Messrs : P Davis & Son—Gents—Before I left Mer

of your Pain Killer, nml I could readily have disposed
of a large quantity of it among them. It seams par
ticularly efficacious in cholera morbus, bowei complaints
and other diseaseas, to which the natives of Bunnah
from their udWholcsome style of living, are peculiarly
exposed. It is a valuable antidote to the poison of
Centipedes, Scorpions, Hornets, and the like, I have
been twice stung by Scorpions, and in both cases eased
the most excruciating pain, and entirely prevented the
swelling by applying the Pain Killer. On our voyage
homeward from India, the Captain of the ship was
taken with vomiting and purging, and other symptoms
of cholera, I gave him a good dose of Pain Killer
with the most immediate and happy results So entire
was the relief that he assured me he would never
again go a voyage without your excellent medicine; if
he could possibly procure it.

Mail Robber.—Through the kindness of our
Postmaster, Solomon Cohen. Esq., we have been
placed in possession of the news of the commis
sion of a mail robbery on the Western and Atlantic
Railroad. The Postmaster at Chattanooga advises
him that the packages of letter from Savannah to
Nashville and Chattanooga, of the Istli of August
last, were stolen from the cars on the State Road
and found in the Tennessee river on the 12th Oc
tober There was a number of important letters;
one of which contained a check on the Central
Railroad Bank for $27 or $29 (too much defaced to
tell exactly) in favor of Stricken, Ellis and Co.
This is an important discovery to our merchants,
as it may explain the cause of unanswered letters
and unacknowledged remittances.

The President a! church.—A clerical correspond
ent of the New Y'ork Observer, writing from
Lancaster, I’a., about the President’s late visit
there tells the following.
A pleasant instance of his freedom from osten
tation and pride was bis manner at church on the
preceding Sabbath. He walked tiom his resi
dence which must be two miles, as the church is in
the opposite suburb of Lancaster, and came a lit
tle after the service began. His feet was covered
with dust, and tiie prespiration was standing on
his forehead. No stir was made in the congrega
tion: he quietly entered his own pew, and engaged
in silent devotion. A psalmbook was handed
to him, and he at once participated in the song of
praise. He seemed greatly interested in the ser
mon, which was indeed worthy the attention of
kings and all others in authority, as well ns of all
under authority. It was based on the passage,
“Almost thou persnadest me to be a Christian,”
and besides possessing extraordinary merit as a
piece of composition was delivered with eloquence
and power.
After church the President walked devontedly,
and entirely unattended through the streets of
Lancaster. YVliat Stranger looking upon this sol
itary pedestrian, apparently oblivious of self, and
not expecting admiration could have imagined
that he was the Chief Magistrate of this mighty
nation.
Spurgeon sometimes comes out with a good

Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—Provided with
these neineiiies, a person of the most delicate phvsiqnc
may brave any climate. They comprehend within the
circle of their curative influence all internal diseases
nutorganie, and ull the varieties of outward inflamma
tion. Be careful not to be imposed upon by a spurious
article palmed upoh you for genuine. The latter are
known by a Water-mark in every leaf of the book
of directions accompanying each pot nml box. This
Water-mark consists of the words, “Holloway, New
York and London,” which ought to be in semi-transpa
rent lettei s in the paper. Hold it up to the light.
The Foot of Anuk.—We have liis foot in our
office for exhibition. It is in a petrified state, and
wis found near this place. It is about fourteen
inches long and resembles a last more than a
human foot The joints over the instep aud around
where tiie ankle may have been are somewhat
striking The hot ton is as smooth as many feet
would he in Auak’s age. and indeed does resemble
the bottom ct a hitman foot that trod the earth
about 511,000 years ago. It clearly shows the pro
gression of man that liis foot was once as rough
aud as huge as tliis. But this does not show any
marks of the toes: or rather shows that in petrefac-
tion they all grew together. Perhaps iu calling it
the foot of Anak we may have no authority, nor do
we claim that we have, hut then if it is not Auak’s
foot whose is itf We should like to know the age
of this “foot,” It must have trode the earth many
thousands of years ago, long, long before the
human feet reached the perfection they have now.

The Proprietors of the Federal Ukios will issue a
Daily paper during the approaching session of the
Legislature, if they receive sufficient encouragement,
from the public. A Daily paper at the Seat of Gov
ernment, especially during the sittings of the Legisla
ture, is a public want, which we are determined to
supply, if we are not to suffer too much in pocket, by
the experiment. Such an enterprise cannot be carried
ou without money. To the public, then we appeal for
support. The Dailv Fedekal U.vio.v will he in size
and type, ami iu all other respeets save the amount
of reading matter similar to the- Weekly Federal Union.
It will contain abstracts of the proceedings of the Leg
islature each day, amt of such debates as may be of
general importance. It will also contain late Telegraph
ic Intelligence, the state of the Markets, Aie. The
iriee of the paper for the Session will be ONE DOL
LAR, to be paid in advance.
We want all those who feel interested and are will
ing to assist us in this enterprise, to inform us, at once
what number of copies they will subscribe for, so that
we can at an early a day as possible, determine whether
we will publish a DAILY. No money will be required
until we receive uames, ami determine whether we
can be sustained in its publication.
Out T Eli us are so low, every man who earesto know
what liis public servants are doing, may keep lituisel!
