THE TREASURY OF THE UNITED STATES

THE TREASURY OF THE UNITED STATES.
We request particular attention to the following
detail from the Money article of late Philadelphia
paper showing the skill foresight and discretion, with
which the financial affairs of the nation were man
aged during great part of the two last administra
tons
In England every thing connected with commerce
is placed under the management of the Board of
Trade all things connected with naval affairs
intrlisted TO the superintendent of the Board Of Adj
mraity and those things relating to the finances of
the country, directed by the Lords of the Trea-
sury In every case persons are selected to fill these
various stations and to execute the duties connected
with them, who are supposed to have some know
ledge at least if not experience in the subjects with
which these duties are connected. This course of
policy causes the affairs of all these departments to
be managed practically, skilfuly, and for the best
interests of the country
Far different is the course that has for many years
past been pursued in this country. Men have been
elevated to important stations and had conhded to
their charge the Administration of the affairs of
of the great departments of the Government of which
they were entirely ignorant never having from pro-
fesson, study, intercourse with other persons ac-
CURED a knowledge of the first rudmenls of the sci
of business which they have undertaken to treat
upon and manage, The consequences have been that
the affairs of those departments have been msman-
aged, and the country has suffered.
In an especial degree will these remarks apply to
the manner in which the fiscal affairs of the ry
have been managed for years past prior to 1871
In our last article, we pointed out some OF the mis-.
management Of the Treasury department, and the
consequences to the country which ensued We will
furnish some evidence of the total incapacity oil
the individual who presided over that department
from the year 1874 to March, sil to conduct it.

gress from the Treasury Department in December

pleased to find, even at this late period, that
