OUR SPECIAL WASHINGTON DESPATCH.
WASHINGTON Sept. q 1859.
About week since there appeared in the New York
paper which you call sour quadratcral cotcmporary a
statement furnished by Mr. Evans its correspondent hore
purporng be of the finances of the national
Treasury for the current fiscal year This professed
show that Secretary Cobbs estimate of receipts from
ports would be largely exceeded by the actual receipts
while the expenditures would be considerably less than
estimated that there would be ut the end the
fiscal year a surplus of thirteen millions in the
Treasury In other words the of the government
for the fiscal year estimated last annual report
of the Secretary at $40 &c. and the expenditures
$74 065 500 &c. while, according to CHS discovery
the former would be increased ST. ATS ST. and
the latter reduced to $50 1921 AIS 81.
This discovery if true would have been Of the highest
Importance Learning that it furnished to Mr.. Evans
by Mr. Clayton the Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
called upon the Secretary of the Treasury how
the facts Mr.. Cobb that there is
word Of truth in the statements that il is visionary from
beginning to end that he to think that his
estimates for the years receipts and expenditures will
prove to be far from the mark that he has not yet
arranging his estimates for next year. and that
when they completed he will be ready deliver them
to the press.
Advices have been received here from Mr. Yancey our
Minister to the Argentine Confederation Active prepara-
tons still progressing between Buenos Ayres and the
Argentine Confederation Mr.. Yancey states that he is
using his good Offices in arranging the dispute without an

whore by the people, and they urge him persevere He
aludes to the fact Of firing into American ship by
vessel belonging to the Confederation while he was on
board passing up the river He has doubt it was an
entire misapprehonsion their part and insult
intended.
Instructions are being prepared at the State
Department to Minister in Peru calling his
particular attention 10 number of claims of long
standing held by American citizens against that govern
The fact that Peru has recently expressed hor

ACADEMY Mrsic.-The first positive novelty of the
season. although II paradox to say so, the
reproduction Of the Trovatore,n which was given last
last night with Madame Cortes in the role of Leonora the
first essay which this artist has made in this opera here
1t is part peculiarly suited TO her idosyncraces, and
one which she sang with that dramatic intensity which
distinguishes all her representations To all the decla
matory music Madame Cortes gave the fullest dramatic
expression, and was far enthusiastic to make
fear that her physical powers would not prove equal
her artistic conception. Once twice she narrowly
escaped shpwreck of this kind. Madame Cortesi, in
pout of execution equal of her predecessors
in this role but in breadth and scope and lyric power she
leaves nothing to be desired. In the brilliant
catdteha of the first act she sang better than
we remember to have heard her before in any
ford music. The role of Leonora draws heavily upon
the resources OF the artist and II small compliment
to say that Nine Cortesi quite equal to the require
ments OF the composer She frequently RECALLED and
had at the bands Of very large audience all the honors
OF genuine success Brgnoli in splendid voice and
sung his music in his best manner, which has
not been equaed by Of his rivals this side of the
Atlantic, where he sung Manrco originally Amodio was
equally good in D Luna, and received marked and de-
served honors for his fine singing of III bahnu Mr.
Maretzck conducted the performance which was a very
good one in every respect
Tonight the "Purtan' will be given with Madame

every eight years, while it took New 1ork
fifteen years to perform similar operation;
but it is not to be supposed that that relative
difference in the ratio of growth will continue.
On the contrary the superior inducements to
reside in the upper part of this island which
the last five years have inaugurated, in the per-
fectng of our city railroad system, the increase
OF omnibus lines, the establishment of steamboat
ferries all the way up to Harlem, and the laying
out of the Central Park, will inevitably tend to
bring the difference in our favor. In a few
years hence we will have railroad in every
avenue in the city, with several cross lines from
river to river. And when they fail to furnish
sufficient accommodation for the traffic of up
and down town, We will no doubt have two
grand ferry lines on the Hudson and East
rivers, with a large number of boats plying
from the Battery to the most distant points of
the city, and putting in for passengers at every
tenth or twentieth pier which, in its turn, will be
connected by branch lines of railroad with the
main trunk lines. We can thus have a mos
perfect system of city travel, both by land and
water, while Brooklyn will be restricted to it
land facilities. We think, therefore, that the
relative proportions Of the growth of the two
cities will, during the next forty years, be re
versed to the advantage Of New York. We are
now in the midst Of great social revolution,
affecting the entire business of the city and its
future development But still we do not ex-
pect to begin the twentieth century with
population of five millions. That is little
ahead of orr calculations
