CHARACTER OF The WORK.
From the Edinburgh Rev;ew
1t is about two years since We expressed
our anxiety for the appearance OF this rk;
and we have now to congratulate our readers
and ourselves on its publication. Blu, what
is still more satisfactory. ard what, after so
many instances OF disappointment, we could
scarcely venture TO expect, almost all that
we anticipated from the adventurous spirit
and the known abilities Of DR CLARKE, has
been fulfilled and We have, at last, the great
pleasure of seeing before Ms a book oil travels
bv person, we will not say combining all
the requisites of traveller, or Answering,
in every particular, to what our farcy might
picture as most desirable in this character;
but certainly uniIrg mere Of the qusliica-
tons essential to his difficult calling, tia
any ono whose Iabors have come under cur
notice and above all land it is here chiefly
that we would fix our commendation) pre-.
ceeding, in the compilation Of his journal
and the digestion Of his narrative, upon Tar
sounder views of the nature OF his duties,
than any Of those whom we have hitherto
dealt with" w 80
From tie Quarterly Review. ass#
Dr. CLARKE has certainly broughtfo-
gether, in The volume before us, much va
luable information respecting counties very
imperfcctly known; his materials are we'll
and clearly arranged; his rarra,iye is always
amusing; his style concise & spirited; and,
on some occasions, particularly happy. He
has, also, been permitted to enrich his work
with many curious and interesting extracts
from the MS. journal Of the Rev. Reginald
Hcber, which are digested into the form OF
notes, and, while they confirm the authors
testimony, materially add to the readers in-
struction. 1t may, therefore, be presumed
that such work will be translated into many
other languages
This interesting work is printed on 6na
woven paper, with handsome type, making
large octave volume Of $50 pages. Price

The disposable national revenue, or that
portion which alone is applicable to defray
the annual national expenses, consists only of
the surplus Of the gross amount of revenue
collected, beyond the amount necessary for
paying the interest on the public debt. A d.
mlnutlon OF that interest is, with respect to
the ability of defraying the other annual ex-
penses, positive encrease of revenue to the
same amount. With an equal amount Of gross
revenue, the revenue applicable to defray the
national expenses Is now, by the effect Of the
reduction of the debt, two million. six hum
dred thousand dollar. greater than on the first
day of April, 1901. Or, if another view of
the subject be thought more correct, the laws
for the reduction of the debt have in ten years
and nine months, enabled the United States 20
paw IN full the purchase money Of Louisiana,
and INCREASED their revenue near two millions
Of dollars.
Ii the amount of annual payments on &C
coun; Of both the principal and interest of the
public debt, during the last eight years, be
contrasted with the payments hereafter ne
cessary for the same purpose, the difference
will be still more striking. Eight millions Of
dollars have been annually paid on that ac-
count during those eight years. The whole
amount payable after the year 1912, including
the annual reimbursement on the six per cent.
and deferred stocks, is 3,792,3S2 dollars,
making an annual difference of more than
four millions two hundred thousand dollars,
