REpoRT or THE SECRETARY or THE TREA-
suRy.--In the Confederate Congress on
Tuesday week, the report of the Secre-
tary of the Treasury was presented, and
considered in the secret session. The
Richmond Examiner says Of it
1t is understood that the report is main
" in answer to a resolution passed at the
late session of Congress instructing the
Secretary to prepare a statement touch
inc the amount received from oil sources
and expended under direction Of the
Government and also tabular statistics
of taxable property in the several States
in the Confederacy. In round numbers,
| il is believed the expenditures have been
about Sl0,000,000, up to lst July, while
receipts have been about Sl4,0OO,0OO.--
The former includes an item OF S4OO,OO0
refunded to South Carolina, in part salts
faction of her outlay in way OF preparation
for defence anterior to her adoption OF
| tho Constitution of the Confederate
States.
The Secretary Of the Treasury esti-
mates the taxable property, real and
personal, Of the eleven States at S4,IOV,-
100000. Secretary Chase puts that OF the
United States at Sl0,0O0,0OO,O0Oj but
many of his values are fictitious and
ephemeral, while the estimates OF the
| Confederate Secretary are based on SOLID
securities. The expenditures OF the Con
federate Government does not, OF course,
include the expense incurred by the
States prior to their connection with the
Southern Coniederacy, except the case
alluded to Of South Carolina. The bal
ance Of her outlay of 100000 has been
taken in Confederate bonds, no mention
Of which is made in the amount to the
credit of the Government. Tho Secre-
tary will soon issue s2O,000O0O Treasury
notes, which the banks take on deposit
and in liquidation Of dues.
No additional recommendation IS un'
/ derstood to be made in this report touch
G ing the financial policy proper to be pur
! sued bv the Confederate States.

Common School Report.

We have received a copy of the Seventh
annual Report of the Superintendent of
Common Schools in Maine This report
contains much valuable information in rela
ton to the workings of our system of schools
Extracts are published from the reports of
school Office RS of many of the towns in the
State We notice that a lengthy extract is
taken from the Report of the 5. 5. Commit
tee of Bucksport and also from the Report
of the Supervisor Of orland. The Superin
tcndent says, our pablo schools have a
deeper hold than formerly upon the interest
Of all classes of the community. They oc-
cupy better houses they command higher
order Of teachers, and are furnished with
better facilities, generally, for the perform
ancc of their appropriate work.
Mr.. Weston earnestly recommends public
discussion upon educational topics in all the
towns. Professional gentlemen. teachers in
the schools and others accustomed to speak
can be found to conduct lectures or debates.
No single evil IS 50 fatal to the success Of our
schools as irrcgulaslty, and none SO disturls
the order and government as this. \ chap
ter is devoted to the = Want of Proper Clas-
sifca,ion." f,s remarks upon this point
are valuable.and timely. The system of
grading is dwelt upon and its advantages
urged. Instances Of its trial and success are
given. " The care Of the children's Health"
Is a subject which serves for some judiei5us
remarks. We cannot give bat faint idea
of the valuable hints and Suggestions in this
able Report for want Of space. We earnest
" hope all who teel an interest in the cduca-
tional interests of the State will procure a
cory Of is Report in some way, and read
il.

If there was any protection afforded by

die tomorrow. A delegation will 60 to
Washington this month, who will get the
President to devise measures for such protec

A change he's taken place in the propr-
ctorship of the Elscorh american, by the
! purchase of half interest in the same, and
of the Printing Establishment in connection
Herewith, by Mr.. WILLIAM P. BrRR, who
has been connected with the Office for more
than year and a half past as Foreman
Mr. Burr has skill and experience as prac
teal printer, which is invaluable in carving
on the business and by this change, his SER
vices are secured for the mutual benefit of
subscribers and proprietors. We take pleas
ure in recommending him to the ." craft :" as
being every inch printer, and a gentleman
who well understands the duties and respon.
sibilities of a newspaper publisher.
No change will be made in the terms of
publication, nor in its advocacy of political
principles to which it has been fully commit
ted since it passed into the hands of the SEN
Tor publisher. 1t is confidently expected,
however, that constant improvement will

live newspaper, while it is under the guild
ancc Of its present publishers, as they fully
understand the necessity of keeping up with
the demands of the exacting and progressive
spirit of the day. for - nce nerrs,' and
= more light. and confidently hope to meet
all its just expectations.
We appeal confidently to friends 10 assist
in the circulation Of the American, believing
that every one who becomes subscriber, will
receive full equivalent for his money. No
fear need be now entertained that the AMER
ian will not live, as it is established on
firm basis; and we cannot conceive OF the
contingency happening, of our parting with
our interest in the establishment, or ceasinc
to devote all our energies, and our limited
means. in its Improvement.
