At last division of profits the bonus added to policies gave the following results for the past five years : To members aged 20 .. 55 per cent. on their premiums. source for tho preceding year were $ll6, ', and for ten months of the fiscal year ending Juno 30, 18G3, the sum of $41,003,192. The Commissioner estimates the receipts for the present year, ending Jan. 30, 186 G, at $272,000,000. For the months of July, August, and September past the receipts were $93,720,425. But he does not expect so large receipts for the remaining nine months, because the in come tax of this year is embraced in the collections of those three months, and it amounted to the large sum of $41,766,116. But we have no doubt, however, that the receipts for tho complete year will reach the full sum of three hundred millions, as the whisky and tobacco taxes will pay much better for the next than for the past six months.

GEO. HASELTINE and CO. ENGINEERS, MANUFACTURERS, and others employing Steam Power, are respectfully invited to make trial of SPILLER'S BOILER FLUID, for the prevention and removal of Calcareous Incrustation from Steam Boilers. The Chemical Solution to which attention is directed has been employed in the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, and other manufacturing branches of the War Department, besides being used successfully in many private establishments. It possesses the advantage of being perfectly soluble, so that it may be introduced into the boiler with the feed-water, at any time when, from the pressure of steam, it may not be convenient to pour it through the safety valve or other openings in the ,boiler. It does not excite the slightest corrosive action 'upon the metal plates or fittings of the boiler, but, on the contrary, has a tendency to clear off any existing rust, and preserve the iron from oxidation, whereby any slight flaws or cracks in the boiler-plate become immediately apparent a point of great importance in connexion with the perio dical inspection of the boiler. The use of this agent does not involve the introduction of a poison into the water of the boiler, so that the water drawn off may be fearlessly employed for many purposes, which, under other systems, would be attended with risk. Mr. Spiller's Boiler Fluid has been favourably reported upon by the Inspector of machinery, Royal Arsenal, and other officers superintend ing tit" , manufacturing departments at Woolwich. It has likewise been used with success at the Royal Gunpowder Factory, Waltham Abbey. Copies of these reports, and of others received from proprietors of steam machinery in several parts of the kingdom, may be seen on application to Mr. J. B.

Distilled Spirits for 1863, $3,229,990 ; for 1864 $28,431,797 ; for 1865, $15,995,600. During the fiscal year 1863 the tax was uniformally twenty cents per gallon. For the fiscal year 1864 the tax was twenty cents until March 7, after which it was sixty cents. From July 1, 1864, until January 1 1865, it was $1.50 per gallon, and afterwards $2.1 Of the amount reported in the year 1865, however, $3,862,752, or nearly one-fourth the whole amount, «•as twenty to sixty cents per gallon. Says the Commissioner ; "For a long time the consumption has not been of spirits which have paid the duty current at the date, but always of those taxed, if liable at all, at a previous and lower rate. The increase has never been of advantage to the Government, but has swelled the income of manufac turers and speculators. For several months of the past year, when holders were disposing • of their adventures the market price of distilled spirits, even in the Atlantic cities, remote from the place of production, was but little if any in advance of the tax. It is no wonder, then, many of the distilleries were idle and the revenue small." This is all true. Had Congress passed a tax 0181.00 per gallon at the outset, and let it remain at that rate to this time, the Treasury would be better off to-day by seventy-five millions. This sum has been paid by the consumers and gone into the pockets of speculators. The reported number of gallons of distilled spirits in 1863 (ten months) was 16,149,954; in 1864, 85,295,391 gallons; in 1865, 16,936,778 gallons. The average tax able productions per year, from September, 1, 1862, to June 30, 1865, were $40,537,371 gallons, and making a total of $121,611,113 gallons, which, at $l.OO per gallon, would have produced one hundred and twenty millions of revenue. The average annual consumption of taxed distilled spirits in Great Britain is about twenty millions of gallons, from which at $2.50 per gallon the Government derives an income of fifty millions of dollars per annum. The people of America consume much more distilled liquors per man than in Great Britain, where beer and ale are the common beverages. The distillation of the past three years shows that the consumption exceeds forty millions of gallons, and that, too, exclusive of part of the consumption of the States in Rebellion. The consumption in the whole Union may be safely set down at fifty millions of gallons per annum. At two dollars per gallon the revenue from this single source would be one hundred millions, if the tax wero honestly collected. The Commissioner states that the cost of collect ing the Revenue for the past year has been, as nearly as can be ascertained, two and three-quarters per cent. and not to exceed three per cent. The cost in Great Britain is stated to be three and one-sixth per cent. The recommendations and suggestions of improvements in the Internal Revenue Law are not important, as the Commissioner is waiting for the report from the Committee of Revision.
