RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES. Il appears trsn'
statement of the receipts aud expenditures
. made BY the Secretary of the Treasury, that
the following was the condition Of the treasury
at the expiration Of the half year ending on the
S0th June, 1914, viz:

1t is said that the 'tfee should be judged by
its fruit" This is right; and it is no less cor
rect to Judge of laws by their results. Previous
to the passage of the existing tariff act, the
treasury was without larthing, and the credit
of the nation was greatly below par. Euro
pean capitalists refused to lend money to go
vernmcnt which could exhibit nothing better
than "a beggary account of empty boxes"-
But now, thanks to the operations OF the tariff,
our Golfers are filled to Overlooking, and the
only difficulty is, to know how to dispose OF

exist long, however, if the enemies of protec-
ton succeed in reducing duties to 20 per cent
Bat can they succeed? Never. The Ameri-
can people will never tolerate so suicidal po-
Icy as the REIMBURSEMENT OF measure which
has been so beneficial in its operation nationally
and individually. The country is in a high
state Of prosperity; and the wisest thing our
rulers can do is, ''to let we'll enough alone"
FIRE AND MELANCHOLY Loss OF LIFE. The
dwelling house and baru of Mr.. Seymour T.
Benedict, at Walton, Delaware county, n. Y,
was destroyed by fire Oh Saturday night last,
the 7Lh instant, and dreadful to relate, his
wife and FIVE children persisted in the flames.
As near as can be ascertained, the fire was
communicated from candle that the children
took on going 10 bed, up stairs Mr.. Benedict
and his wife were first awakened by the fire
breaking through from the chamber into the
room where he and his wife, with their young
est child, slept. They Immediately rushed out
of the house, carrying the child with them
The children up stairs were crying for help,
surrounded by the flames, and Mr.. Benedict
urged them to jump out Of the window-that
he would catch them. fhc eldest did SO, be-
ing then already much burned, but the others
did not, either through fear or inability. Mean
while, it Is supposed that Mrs B. had gene
into the house with the vain endeavor to Get
them out; and the little child, about four years
old, unconscious Of danger, followed her, and
all persisted. Their mang!od and half burned
bodies were found in the ruins the following
day, but it was impossibleto distinguish their
features. The eldest daughter, about l9 years
old, is SO badly burned as to render herrecovery
exceedingly doubtful. Mr.. Benedict is almost
out of his senses A calamity SO dreadful SCI
dom falls to the lot of rnan-deprived in short
hour of home, and all that made life and home
dear to him. Mrs. Benedict was an amiable,
kind, Christian mother, and highly respected
by all her friends

ONE DAY ELECTION. There has been con-
siderable shunlng in The House of Represen-
tatves, on DR.. Duncan'e bill TO have the cleo
ton of President and Vice President held on
the same day throughout the Union; but the
indications are, that it will pass the House and
become law. 1t is so obviously proper that
this measure should be adopted, that we are
surprised to find it opposed. Some members
allegu that, as another Presidential election
will not take place in less than four years,
there will he time enough to consider the sub
ject hereafter; hut we agree with those who
believe that there is no time like the present
for action in the matter. The former mode OF
choosing electors was productive of gross abuses
and frauds, and measures preventive Of their ie-
pottien cannot be too speedily adopted

MoRsE's TELEGRAPH. The Washington
correspondent of the Patriot says-"lhe Won
derful performances of Morsc's Telegraph IN
reporting the proceedings ofCoDgrcss continue
to excite great attention, and its praise is in
the mouth of every one" 1t is not surprising
that the working of the Telegraph should en-
cite universal admiration, for it is truly won
derful: but we hope that the appreciation Of
this highly useful invention will not be oonin.
ed to empty compliments We have looked
for movement on this subject in Congress-
The utility and importance of the Telegraph
have been practically tested, and the necessity
of extending it is demonstrated. 1t should be
adopted by government, and carried from
Washington east, west, north and south. In
time Of war it would be found of incacuab!e
value IN transmitting information of passing
events; and to individuals it would be exceed
ipgiv serviccable in their business transactions
Money could not be more advantageousy ex
pended than in the extension of the Telegraph
and as the treasury is fully able to sustain TIN
cost, this is the proper moment to commence
the work. We hope that Congress will TAX
the matter up without delay, and set Professo
Morse to work on public account.

FROM RIO JANEiRo. An arrival at this port
on Saturday brought dates from Rio to the
22d October, which represent business to have
been brisk for the month past. The merchants
fearing the operations of the new tariff which
was about to go into operation, had bought up
large stocks at higher prices, and consequently
there will be but little demand for some time
for any kind of produce. The importations of
-four continue to exceed the demand, and sales
dull, the stock on hand being about 90, 900 bar
