So that, in addition TO the sum proposed to be
issued shall require for the service OF the year. and
leave sufficient balance in the Treasury the end
of it, further of at least four millions. Il is not
safe TO proceed without it. IL Congress will provide
for the redemption of the notes now outstanding in
some other mode and not make them chargable upon
the revenue OF this year. in my judgment the five mil
lions now proposed will be sufficient to carry us
through it, The Secretary himself have
some lurking apprehensions that this may be
sary for he suggests that il may be found expedent
TO authorize contract to be made under proper re-
strictions extending the period of payment of por
ton of the temporary liabilities falling due in that
year." CSil) This is very softly expressed, TO be
sure lie docs not recommend tho re Issue of the
Treasury notes because he assured they could all
be redeemed last year and he had just demonstrated
that they certainly could be in this He docs not even
speak Of them as I" Treasury notes. No; they have
become temporary liabilities" He would not Ie-is-
them but would merely make "a contract to post
pone payment. How far this operation would differ
from debt or from borrowing money, gentlemen can
Judge for themselves 1t strikes being very
much the same thing Now, sir, is it not apparent

Excess of receipts,

These years, therefore, the great othe
receipts which the Secretary now regards "record
ed evidence OF our prosperity, because the receipts
the last four years have not equaled the expenditures
Sir cannot but recolect how often, within the last
two years, have heard the importations and the land
sales oil those years denounced oycr-tradinpn-
speculation forced on by bank expansions grow
ing out of fictitious credit, and the of all the
embarrassments and revusions which followed The
specie circular was issued avowedy check the lane
sales which were going on To such dangerous extent
What vehement denunciations have we not listened
to both of banks and of State debts as occasoninf
such enormous importations from abroad destructv,
OF our industry and our resources And vet il was
these very imporations and sales which furnished III,
Treasury with money--now relied upon as "recordeo
ertdence Of NE prosperity Of The country" The Sc
creary HIMSELF in his report to Congress in Dec 1888
says: An over flowing tide of speculation and banl
issues like that of 1886 is not anticipated while The re
cent erits and disasters from these sources are fresh
remembrance" He was constrained Eat that tin,e'
to regard many OF the appearances Of ertraordinar,
prosperity as eeusire the existing surplus as tempo
rary and tahacious,n &C.
by what strange process is il that this falIaey thes
deiusire appearances, have become entitled to ia,
great weight and the high authority of recorded ev
dence r. But sir not 10 hold the Secretary bound b,
opinions expressed two years ago and which he ma,
have since changed, we find in this same document
the report of this yeara repetition Of the same sen
timents. Having stated the great results which b,
has accomplished he next proceeds explain the diff
heulties which he has had TO encounter One OF thu
greatest evils to the public service well as to the SC
curty of private business during part Of the abov'
period has consisted in the fluctuations to which boil
have been subjected
These fluctuations exhibited, among other proofs
in the great falling of of imports, which, he says
fell within two years from near one hundred and nine

TEARS. There is a sacredness IN
tears. They are not the mark Of weak
ness, but Of pdser; they speak more
eIoquendy than ten thousand tongues -
They are messengers Of overwhelming
grief, of deep contrition, Of unspeakab.e
love. If there we're wanting any argu-
ments to prove that man is not mortal
| would look for it in the strong convuI-
sion of the heart, when the soul has been
deeply agiated, when the fountains oil
feeling are rising, and tears are gushing
forth in chrystai streams, Oh, speak
not harshly Of the stricken one, weeping
in silence, break not the soemnity, by
rude laughter, or intrude footsteps, De
prive not a woman Of her tears, they
are that which makes her an angel
love to see the tears Of affection, they
are painful, but still most holy. There
is pleasure in tears, an awful pleasure
If there we're none on earth, 10 shed
tear for me, should be 10th 10 live, ant
If not one to weep over my grave,
could never die in peace.

DESTRUCTION OF THE NATIONAL THE
ATKE BY FIRE

About seven O'Clock this morning, tho Nation
al Theatre was discovered to be on fire, and at
o'clock was mass OF ruins. BY great exerlions
of the fire department, the surrounding buildings
were preserved almost entirely from damage, ex-
cept by the falling of the walls. The walls fell
on the root of a house OF bad repute adjoining
the Theatre in Leonard street, crushing it through
10 the second story, also destroying the room
building attached TO the rear. The houses OIL
Franklin street were somewhat mi ured on their
ar-piazZas broken down and windows broken.
The Church du 81. Esprit received no damage.
r Macy of the actors and actresses lost nearly
heir whole wardrobe. SO rapid was the prog
ress of the fire that but little of value could be
saved.
We could not hear of any insurance on the
building by any of our city Offices, except $4,000

one who furnished lumber for The interior

err was arrested last evening by Messrs Gill
Hayes, Welch aud Osborn of the police, on srs-
pclon of having attempted 10 fire the building in
or 0 different places. The circumstances are us
follows Shier was observed about the usual hour
Of lighting up the theatre, in The upper part of
the building, lighting the gas. A few minutes af-
forwards, box of loco loco matches fell from
the upper story, which led 10 suspicion and an
immediate examination of that part of the build
ing The doors were Immediately locked, and no
person was let out or in. On search, no person
building. On him key was found which fitted
the door Of Mr.. Wilson's from. 1t was not
known that any person had key TO the room but
Mr.. Burton. An examination of the room was
made, and nearly all the papers in the roor, found
to have been on fire. Shier was Immediately ac-
cused of the decd, but would give no satisfactory
answer. He was then carried TO the Police anu
committed 10 prison for examination which prob
ably will take place this afternoon. Shier has
lately been heard TO threaten that the house
should not last or remain open long, and has in
various ways caused considerable difficulty. The
regular performances were had there last even
ing, and all was thought safe when the house was
| closed
An inquest was held this morning in the house
adjoining the Theatre in Leonard street, on
young woman about 10 years of age, an inmate
OF the house for few days only. She was iate-
ly from Philadelphia.
She was killed by The falling of the wall, which
crushed in the roof. Her apartment was in the
garnet. She had been several times down stairs
previous to the falling in of the root We could
