NAVY AND WAR DEPARTMENTS.
rausmit here with reports Of tn
Secretaries Of War, Of the Navy, Of tn
Interior, and Of the Postmaster Genera
They each contain valu ,ble information
and important recommendations we
! worthy of the serious consideration q
Congress.
1t will appear from the report ct tn
Secretary Of War that the AMY expen
, ditures have been materially reduced b,
. system Of rigil economy, which, il
) his opinion, offers every guarantee tina
: the reduction will be permanent. The
estimate of the Department for the mex
= below the estimate Tor inc pfesanI nsca
year, and half million Of dollars belo,
the amount granted for this year at tn
last session Of Congress.
The expenditures Of the Post OH
; Department during the past fiscal yea
ending the 3oth June 1859, cxclusiv
Of payments for mail service especial
provided for by Congress ont Of the gen
eral treasury, amounted to Sl4.s6s, 1913
33, aud its receipts to 81, SOS, 474.O?
showing deficiency to be supplied From
: the treasury Of $1,000, 900 .26, asains
s5,535,5777 Is for the year ending BOT
June, 1858. The increased cost Of tran
sportat;ou growing out Of the sxpan>io
OF the service by Congress explains thi
: rigid au ,men...ion Of tue expenditure
Its gratifying, however, to observe Al
increase Of receipts for the year end,n.
on the Goth June, 1859, equal to s4sl
691 q, compared with those in the veal
ending Both June, 1858.
1t is estimated that the de6ciecy fo
the current fiscal year will DO S5,9sS,
424.o4, but for the year ending soil
June 1861, it will not exceed 1892,
1880, should Congress adopt the meas
ures ofreform proposed and urged By th'
Postmaster General. Since the mouth
Of March retrenehments have been mad
N the expenses amounting to 81 1926,
AL annually. which, however, did no
take effect until after the commencement
Of the present fiscal year. The per'o
! seems to arrive for determining IN
question whether this Department sha'
become permanent and eyer.incre:s'n
charge npon the treasury, or shall .
r.rmittd 10 resume the self sustainin
nolicy which had so long controlled II
administration. The course Of legisl'
ton recommended by the Postmaste
General for the relief Of the Department
from its present endorsements, an
Tor restoring its original independence
is deserving Of your early and earncs
! consideration.
In conclusion | would again commen
to the just liberality Of Congress thclt
cal interests Of the District of Colum 81.
Surely the city bearing the name {
, Washington, and destined, l trust, f.
ages to be the capital Of our united, f..
! and prosperous cenfcderacy, has stron
{ claims on our federal reg ,rd.
