l4.ol6 So

BY the preceding exhibition of the fiscal opera
tons OF the year, it will be perceived that, il the
expectations formed respecting the fourth quarter
should be realized the receipts will have exceeded
he estimate presented at the last session of Con.
gress, by about 100000. The only failure has
been In the proceeds Of the public lands sand that
has been the result OF a disappointment in regard
to the rellnqulshed lands; great portions of which
were supposed to offer strong inducements to pur-
chasers, In their fertility, and situation, and other
circumstances. But, not only has the quantity sold
been less than anticipated, but owing, il is be.
lleved in great measure, 10 combinations of CAP
asts, by which actual settlers were deferred from
competition, the price has not, with few exceptions,
exceeded the minimum price fixed by law. II is
10 be observed, however, that the actual receipts
from that source Of revenue during the present
year, will exceed those OF the preceding year and
1t is estimated that those for the ensuing year will
not be less.
The gross amount OF duties on imports and ton
mage, which accrued from the first of January to
the 5olh of September last, inclusive, is estimated
at 8l9000,000, and that OF the whole wear at
S225O 900 OF this sum that portion which ac-
crued in the first half of the year, exceeds, by
about S3oO,OO0, and that in the three quarters by
about IS 100000, the portions which accrued in
the corresponding quarters OF the preceding year
The deoentures issued during the three first
quarters OF the present year, amounted TO OoO
which is less BY 8460,0oo than the amount issued
during the corresponding period of the preceding
year: and the amount of debentures outstanding on
the soth of September last, and cbargeable upon
he rev. nue. Of 1925, was 81,oo4,0Oo which is les.
|oy S4Ol 900 than was, on the same day in 1928
lchafgeable upon the revenue of 1894
The amount OF bonds in suit on the sOtb of Sen
TENDER last, was 82,9o9,00O which is $4,000
more than was in suit on the same day of the pre-
lcedng year. Deducting from the whole amount 0
duties outstanding on bonds and otherwise, on III,
I5Oth OF September last, the debentures actual,
lchargeable upon them and the bonds in suit, it i
estimated, that the sum payable after the expiration
OF the present year, will be about 8l2, 200 900
This amount, however, is subject to debenlure
