The last n. \. American has brief ar
tire on the i" National Resources" which
exhibits very interesting fact. In the
annual report of the Secretary of the Trea-
sury. of the 10th Dee. he estimates the re-
ceipts for the present year at Sl6,11o,000
| Of which the duties We're to yield Sli,
| 100000. leaving the residue to come from
other sourees-Eyen upon this basis, he
. calculates the receipts to exceed the eX-
uenses by Sligo, 1873. Now, the Ap1eri-
can informs us, On an authority Gu which
he implicitly relies, that the duties on goods
imported into the port Of n. Y. alone for
the last quarter of 1921, the 9 first Of ! 822,
and the Sd of 1922 by estimate, amount to
acknowledgement 100 of tie ton
mage duties which viii amount to 3 or
100000. Thus it appears that " the a
mount received and receivable at the SIN
gIe port Of \. y. falls short Of the contem-
plated estimate for customs IN ali The peiS
efMc U. S. only by $3,87 Sand OF the
whole established expense OF the govern
ment only S3,321 ,983}'--And as in 1920,
the receipts at n. !. were about 5-l2ths of
those of all lie ports and last year, IA little
more than bali then it follows that in this
proportion from this source Of the public
revenue alone, it viii exceed the estimated
expense by more than millions.

government. Money is not only The sinew
