Report of The Secretary of the TreaSu-
ry The annual report Of the Sacreta,
ry Of The Treasury, was laIG before Con-
gress on Thursday. 10 The National
lnlelIigencer We find the following syn.
opsis Of it:
The receipts into the Treasury, dur
ing the three first quarters Of The pres
ent year, with the estimated receipts foT
the fourth quarter, from every source.
Including loans aud Treasury notes,
amount 10 thirty four millions five hun
bred and two thousand dollars, besides
The balance Of two hundred and thirty
thousand dollars 10 the Treasury on the
lst Of january last.
The expenditures for the first three
quarters of the year, with the estima
ted expenditure for the remaining quar-
ter, amount Gncluding S7,856,400 for
redemption Of the Treasury notes) tc
thirty .lour millions FIVE hundred anC
three thousand dollars.
The receipts for the half year end
ing lst July next, are estimated (iDclud.
ing Treasury notes and loan 10 the a.
mount Of S5,53S ,OO0) at Sl4,5S8ll2;
and the expenditures for the same pc
Rod (i~ncIuding interest on debt a. Trea
sury notes 10 the amount Of sos 600,
at 10, 3Sl, lS6. The estimate Of receipts
and expenditures for the fiscal year end
ing the 30th of June, 1874, (under the
new arrangement effected by the acI
OF the last SESSION. are estimated, the
receipts from customs and public lands
and 100000 from miscellaneous sources
al Sl8,S50,O00, and the expenditures
(%incIuding interest on Treasury notes,
al 2O,945, 49S.
The balance remaining in the Treasu
ry on The Both ofJune, 1913, it is esti'
mated, will amount TO 3,73l,396, and
on the 3Olh day Of June, 1874, TO 1885,
ST..
Since the estimates were prepared a
The several departments, it has been as
certained that the expenditures for the
fourth quarter OF the present year viii
fall considerably short Of the amount
estimated; so that the balance 10 the
Treasury on the LIST OF January next
will be considerably larger than estlma
ted; but as The difference will become
charge on the Treasury in the mex
year, it has not been deemed necessary
10 alter the amount as first estimated.
The recommendations Of The repor
are confined to that OF a further provis
ion for revenue and the support OF pub
lic credit by taxation on untaxed Of
highly taxed articles Of import, 10 pro-
duce an addition 10 the present revenue
Of three millions OF dollars a year; al
authority 10 allow interest on all out
standing Treasury notes, as under thu
last issue thereof. 81 the establishment o

Secretary ofhe NaUy's Report. The
Home Squadron" under Commodore
Stewart, has been put in commission, The
number OF vessels composing It, and the
cruizing ground whore they will be en-
pIoyed, is mentioned. The steamships
Missouri and Mississippi are pronounce
ed 10 be unsuited for cruizing in time oil
peace, in consequence Of their great con-
sumption Of fuel; but would be useful in
lime OF war. The Brazil Squadron is
under the command Of Commodore Nor
ris, and in the discharge Of its.duty.-
There iS no squadron on the African
coast, where some Of our vessels have
been taken and their crew murdered,
for which Commodore Ramsay is order
ed TO demand PREPARATIONS.
The Secretary recommends a suitable
navy, upon some fixed and permanent
plan and that, in order TO have officers
properly disciplined, the vessels be KEEP
as much as possible at sea. He also re
commends the establishment OF navaI
schools on shore, for the education o.
m~idshiPmea and those who are candi

Report ofthe Secretary of War This
is a very long document and We have
no room but 10 give a synopsis:
A close inspection OF the various posts
has been made with satisfactory results.
10 the expenditures Of The army a very
great reduction has been effected, prin.
cipaliy by the cessation Of the Florida
war, and an economical expenditure
1t is confidently believed that the pres
ent military establishment Of the coun.
try, including all the expenses Of the
military academy Of q permanent or
contingent character, may be maintain.
ed at q cost not exceeding $500, 900
and The estimates are 10 that amount
The number Of troops IN Florida has
been gradually diminished 10 a sufficien.
cy Of protection against the DiSera.
be remnant Of the Indians, With whom.
excepta few arrangements for removal
Fave been made A strong corps Of
obse rvation has been kept up about Red
River, under General Taylor, in conse'
quence Of the Mexican invasion oil TexaS
and appreheDsions relative 10 the wild
tribes Of The Southwest, and to prevent
any attempts TO engage in the then com.
ing conflicts.
The whole number Of troops at pres
ent is 9847. An acl ofCongress al last
session reduced the rank and file of the
army to 1920 men, The reduction is gra.
duaIIy proceeding, and by the beginning
of 1874 the prescribed minimum will be
reached. 1t is proposed to allow men to
be recruited who are citizens, or who
have taken the initialory steps to natur.
alizalion, as en- unprecedented number
1888 in a little more than a year, have
been discharged by The Judges & Courts,
principally on the ground that they were
aliens
The number OF pensions on the roll
lie 35.035, less BY 1896 than at the date
of the last report. 358 claims on account
Of revolutionary services, have been pre-
sented within the year, and that % war
rants have been issued for $3.50 acres
Of land, that 4l6 claims for services in
the last war within The same time, and
that IS warrants have been issued, for
1920 acres o fIand.
1t appears that ss,l24 Indians have
been removed TO the regions west Of
The Mississippi, g. Of the once numerous
tribes east OF that river less than $4,000
souls remain. The greater portion Of
these are under treaty obligations to
remove within a few years. The time
has arrived when We should turn our
attention to devising some form OF gov
eminent which may secure peace and
order among The sons Of the forest, and
protection against others.

1t is estimated that.thrse millions Of

The post Offices; and hat the postage on
these would be $4,000.

made, il Congress would restrain the

purchasing Of railroad companies. the
right 10 transmit the mail upon their

would relieve the department from The
