TIE D,NnTrI TRouPE.-By reference to our nd
vertising columns, it will be seen that this troupe
OF animals are about to pay city visit for the
first time. The pross in Baltimore, Washington.
and k'ehmond. are unanimous in their praise, and
say that tho public arc unanimous in enthusiastic
admiration Of their suparb performances. The
troupe is composed of forty performers including
Americans. Europeans. Asiatic and Africans -

We know nobody who can do this better than
Donnetti; for he makes quadrupeds act in many

in fact. in some things more so; and shows more.
that there is good deal of the monkey aud dog

We havn's seen those monkey and dogs. hut we
are told they IRE amazingly intelligent and droll.
They drill better than some military companies,
salute people with man bows and ape tea party

Their training. too, is calculated to show that

senting a white constituency of about
six millions and the six a constituency
of between thirteen and fourteen mil.
lions. The same injustice to the over.
whelming millions Of people and capi.
tai in the Free States, was maintained
in the organization of the committees
OF the House of Representatives. The
President of the Senate and Speaker
of the House were both Southern Dem
ocrats. The legislation of both branch
es OF Congress was thus placed under
the control of the Southern Democ.
racy.
The Supreme Court of the U. S. is
composed Of nine Judges five of them
are from the Slave States and four
from the Free States. The judicial
circuits are SO formed as to require
the appointment of a majority from
slaveholding communities, embracing
less than one-third of the white popu-
Iation of the country, leaving the mi
nority to represent the feelings and
public opinion of more than two-thirds
Of the people and the business Of the
nation.
OF the heads of the seven execu.
tive departments of the government,
four are from the Slave States and
three from the Free States. The dis
parity in the patronage they control,
is much greater than the disparity in
their relative number. The Secretary
OF War, the Secretary Of the Interior,
the Secretary of the Treasury, and
the Post Master General, all from
Slave States, disbursc four-iifths of
the public treasure, and control the
appointment of more than nine tenths
of the officers of the government
leaving the people of the Free States
with a representation without numeri
cal power and almost destitute of Of,
fetal patronage.
4th. TIE increase Of the expenses Of he
government under this Southern Democrat
&c rule, has been enormous and unneessarg
This is manifest from a comparison
of the expenses for the last six years
with preceding years. The expenses
since June 30tb, lS43 to July l, 1857,
were:
St. Charles City Republican intelligencer. [volume] (St. Charles City [Charles City], Iowa) 1857-1861, 1859-08-11

The Secretary of the Treasury in
his last annual report says, The ex
penditures during the fiscal year end
ing June so, 1853, were $sl ,5S5, ,667,-
76. (see page 2, Finance Report }
Also, "The expenditures of the first
quarter of the current fiscal year, end
ing Sept. 80, 1858, were $2l, ,I0S, 1885,
81 the estimated expenditures dur
ing the remaining three quarters, to
June 80, 1859, are So, 1857 ,69s 49,"
making in all. actual and estimated
for the present year, $74, ,O65, ,s96.99.
But he proceeds to say: To this es-
innate should be added the sum of
SO, 1888, ,72S, required for the service of
the Post Office department, during the
present fiscal year" This increases
the actual and estimated expenses for
the current year ending June 80. 1859,
to $1,000, ,624 80 other deficiencies
will have arisen, growing out of new
Legislation, which the departments
could not have anticipated, to the
amount of $2,000,000 or So, 000, 900 ;
hence the aggregate for the year will
probably exceed $S0,000,0C0,
The estimate of appropriations and
expenses for the fiscal year commenc-
ing July |, 1859, and ending June 80,
1860, amount to $73, 7,9iI 46. This
includes 81, ,0S2, 300, for deficiencies in
the Post Office department. But the
Post Office Bill which passed the House
of Representatives, appropriated $780,
495, 1913, in addition to 500, 900 under
standing law. This was increased
in the Senate two or three millions.
But in consequence of the infexible
determination of Democratic members
to increase the rates of postage on let
ters and newspapers, and as stern an
opposition to this increase by the Re-
publican members Of Congress, the
Bill failed to become law. Yet it
furnishes incontrovertible evidence of
the amount thought to be necessary
for that service by Democratic Post
Master General and Democratic
Congress. But the Post Master Gen
eral estimated the gross revenues of
the department for the year ending
June 3Oth, 1860, at about eight mil
lions add this to the standing appro-
priation of 100000 per annum, and
the deficiency included in the Post Of
fee Bill, of $6,ss2, 900, and substract
the aggregate from the gross amount,
and it leaves an additional deficiency
of $6,ll2,ssS to be added to the Sec
retary's estimates, making in all for
that year, the sum of $40, $50. S35.46
This will be increased, probably, as
before explained to over $50, 600, 900.
This result is reached as certainly
by other data computation Of the
amount Of money at the control of the De-
partmenss The Secretary Of the Sen
ate and the Clerk of the House Of Rep
resentatives compute the definite ap-
propriations made at the last session
Of Congress a. 81 1887, 500: the Sec
St. Charles City Republican intelligencer. [volume] (St. Charles City [Charles City], Iowa) 1857-1861, 1859-08-11

OF this sum $23, 1924, $50 was derived
from loans, mostly during the year
1858. Deducting this from the gross
receipts it will leave $67, CAT ,6s5,77
as the average annual income very
large proportion of which has been
paid by the laboring people of the
free States.
The amount of money paid for pub
lie lands in the free and slave States
respectively for five years, from 1853
to 1851 inclusive, was, in the Free
States $24, ,020, ,957; in the Slave States
9,949,553.
This ratio would probably hold true
for any equal period. But during the
year 1858 in consequence of the great
financial embarrassments, which op-
pressed the North more seriously than
the South, the aggregate receipts from
the slave States surpassed those from
the free States. This may have been
occasioned in part by the operation of
the graduation laws, which threw in
to market large quantities Of land in
the slave States at reduced prices.
The aggregate cash sales in Iowa
since the passage Of the law in 1854
to June 80, 1858, period of four
years, were 6,O64, 2O6 acres, yielding
s7,625,3ll.O9,or an average over 81 ,25
per acre. The sales in Missouri, lying
by the side Of Iowa, for the same pc
riod, amount to $3.50, 800 acres, yield
ing only a. ITO 799lO or about So
cents per acre.
1t would be tedious to thus classify
the receipts from customs for series
of years | therefore adopt an esti.
mate made by another, from which
find that these receipts for the last ten
years, in the free States, amount to
about $3.50, 900. 900; in the slave
states to less than $50, 100000
! am aware that the amount of the
receipts at the custom houses may not
be conclusive Of the relative consump-

From this statement it is seen that
the territory Of the United States was,
in 1920, more than two-thirds of its
present size and hence the expenses
Of the government according to this
ratio Of increase, should be but $l8,-
$50, 900 per annum, and not fifty NIL
lions as assumed. This one correction
will make sad havoc with his conclu-
sion, if we were to admit, which we
