REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER.

REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER.
The following is an abstract Of the Comptrel-
ler of the Treasury's Report, showing the state
of our finances as State. s at
RECEIPTS.
The total receipts into the treasury in the fis-
cal year, which ended the 30th of September,
1857, were 81, ,384,705 40.
There remained in the treasury on the 3Oth
of September, 1856, $592,956 80, which added
to the receipts Of the year, make an aggregate
in the treasury, for the fiscal year, Of $ls977,-
GAL 72.
Of the receipts in 1857, the sum of $658,746
A was for revenue which accrued in that year,
and $425,958 96 for revenue which accrued in
former years. g.,....sstr. p.
By comparison of the total receipts in 1856,
with those in 1867, an excess will appear, IN
favor of the latter year to the amount Of 5 154-
333 40; but there is included in the receipts of
1857 the sum Of $27577O 23, which was re-
ceived in settlement Of the States claims against
the United States; and this sum being deduct
ed, there appears falling off in the total re-
ceipts for 1857, as compared with the preceding
year, Of $121,4 ,436 83. - > 9!
This may be accounted for, to some extent, by
the repeal of the stamp duties, on account OF
which $40, ,123 % were received into the trea-
sury in 1856, and it must also be borne in mind
that the revenue for direct taxes in arrears is
gradually diminishing. e-a.ss s.e .efr. i 81
The truth of this explanation will be more ap-
parent by instituting a comparison between the
amount Of revenue accrued and received in 1857,
which, as before stated, was $958,746 a, and
the amount accrued and received in 1856, which
was 81 ,OO3, ,OO9 99; allowing for the decrease
by reason of the repeal Of the stamp tax, the
difference against 1857 isreduced to $3.50 So.
| The disbursements in the fiscal year, ended
the sOth of September, 1857, were $1,259, ,164
49, This statement also shows the balance in
the treasury at the close of the fiscal year to
have been $718,4T. 80, subject to the payment
of charges therein stated, leaving a net balance
of $242,090 SO for future applications and de-
mands. f..---r,@ .I.s. .-.ss.s..s54n,a, t.a -
! An estimate of the probable receipts into the
treasury in the current fiscal year, (ended the
3Oth of September, 1851 under the existing
revenue laws, amount to 81, l29, $50.
An estimate Of the probable demands upon
the treasury for the current fiscal year is set
down at 1855, ,844. >,.t<r-r ~ le .f.'sss.,.
The receipts during. the year on account OF
the free school fund have been $68, 1892 83,
which, added to the amount remaining in the
treasury on the 30th of September, 1856, to the
credit of this fund, $31, 1928 93, makes an ag-
gregate Of $1OO,916. .76,a Ss,,s....e st.es 4 ::
The disbursements of the same period were
$79,929 13, which being deducted, there re-
mained to the credit of this fund on the Both Of
September, 1857, the sum Of $2O,987 63.

"A more striking contrast could scarcely
exist than between the homes of William
and Henry Camden. United by the tie Of
brotherhood, and in many respects, Of sim

with worldly prosperity, with affectienate
