The CONDITION OF THE TREAsURY.-
After appropriating nearly $50. 600, 900
for the years expenditures. on revenue
Of only $40. 100000. Congress adjourn.
ed leaving no other provision Cor the de.
flciency, but loan for S2O.Oo0.OOo.-
The President already begins to see the
impossibility of king both ends meet,
and it is rumored that he will call Con-
gress together early in November, to
provide the means of carrying on the
government. The revenue by some
measure must be made equal to the ma.
tional expenditures. The country ought
not. for another month, to tolerate the
wretched policy OF borrowing money
quarterly to pay the ordinary expenses
OF the Government. There is no other
way to gain an adequate revenus but
by al increase of duties, and in the re
vision Of the tariff. the people should
insist upon some regard bein. paid to
the vital principle of prote ton Of home
labor. The great source o. the prosper.
i:y Of country is in the employment
Of its own'labor. No national drain car
equal the loss which a partial Suspen
sion Of its industry entails. All the
gold mines in the world cannot supply
the losss OF wealth which is caused b,
keeping million of hands unemployed
or two millions but half employed.
