REVENUE OF TIE GOVERNMENT. = The
total official and estimated revenue Of the
United States for the fiscal year, which ends
June 80. 1864, is S247. S5S, 1874 46, viz:
Total. .s2f7, SIS, l84 %

The official statement of the public debt on
the Dist Of June shows that the gold interest
per annum on the amount outstanding at
that time was $50, SAT .l57 05, and the inter-
est per annum, payable in currency, $2l $780,
259 05-making the total interest on the debt
$50, 737, 4l6 10. The interest on the Seventy.
Five Million Loan, when al taken, will
amount to four millions Eve hundred thous-
and dollars per annum, from the time the
bonds are issued. Deducting premium from
the first years interest, it will leave only
about one million interest to be paid by the
first year. The Four Hundred Million Dol
lars Loan, at six per cent, win add twenty
four million dollars more to the gold interest
bearing debt /; and the hundred and thirty
millions Of Ten Forty Bonds still remaining
undisposed of, when taken, will increase the
interest six million five hundred thousand
more, making the total interest payable in
gold eighty-two million three hundred and
forty-seven thousand one hundred and fifty
seven dollars. These are all the loans which
the Secretary has authority to negotiate. 1t
will be seen that, even if the receipts from Gus
toms shall fall off twenty-one millions, or
one-ffth, during the next fiscal year-which
is very unlikely-the Treasury Department
will still be able to pay every dollar of inter-
est it owes.-N. Y Tribune.

ADMIRAL FARRAaUT-Admiral Farragut,
last year, famous for having run the forts Of
the Mississippi at Port Hudson, Grand Gull,
etc., has again come into prominent notice by
his recent operations below Mobile. With
his seventeen ships he attacked or run the
forts there, supposed by the rebels to be in
vulnerable, and provisioned for six months
siege. One of those forts is reported'blown
up, one given up, and it is quite likely all up
with the others. Thus the harbor or bay Of
Mobile is shut up as a port Of entry for block
ade runners. and the iron-clads which 1t was
necessary to keep there to check the terrible
ram Tennessee, are at liberty to go elsewhere
after having destroyed or taken her. The
rebels appear very much disgusted because
the Commandant OF Fort Gaines found II
necessary to surrender that strong work. 1t
is easy for those at safe distance to COM
ment adversely upon such military neeessl-
ties. 1t is different thing to hold fort
against an iron-clad feet General Page,
who seems new page in history, visited the
fort at night, and left it before morning. 1t
did not seem safe to face daylight and tarra-
gut at the same time, so he left orders for
Colonel Anderson orders-not
to surrender the fort. But Farraguts IRON
clads and eleven inch PARROTS were still more
peremptory. Page relieved Anderson OF bus
command, but the Admiral interviewed, and
took him, his command, and fort also.

Financial.


The following is the "Money and Ex-
change" article of last Saturdays S. F.
Argts:
The Money Market, in certain quarters
here, is rather more active than Tor some
time past. The mercantile classes are not
requiring much aid at present, owing 70 tne
dullness prevailing in every department OF
business, and first-class commercial paper is
scarce and readily placed in Bank at Il per
cent. per month, but the favor IN whch Ger,
tain leading mining stocks have been heio
recently makes them more acceptable as q
collateral, and we hear Of some negotiations
based upon frst-class shares. The move
ment in this direction is by no means gen.
eral one among the Bankers, most OF whom
are still shy Of this description OF security:
II the recent improvement in number oil
claims on the Comstock is well maintained,
capitalists may soon be glad TO aiah them,
selves of the opportunity TO loan upon all
dividend-paying stocks. Money is very
abundant, and great difficulty is experienced
in hnding an outlet for 1t. The Bank Oh
British North America is perfecting arrange
ments to establish a branch ONCE IN TINS
city, under the management of MI. tram,
who has been for many years one OF Inc
agents ofthe Bank in New York. 1t is stat
ed that Mr.. Grain will occupy the premises
recently vacated by Messrs. Sather & Co.,
and commence business at an early day.
: Some little commotion was created to-day
among the Bankers, owing to the reduced
rates at which a certain leading institution
was offering Telegraphic Transfers and Drafts
payable in coin on the Atlantic cities. AT
the rates inauCurated (53 per cent. premium
for the former and 81 for the latter) it is said
that no pro6t can accrue to the drawer
Bills PAYABLE in currency were sold at l40
per cent. premium on gold, but there was
little done in this description of Exchange.
Bullion was rather less firmly held, theayail-
able supply on the market being unexpect-
eddy large. Sales were made at S1O early
this morning, closing at $50. -

WHO IS HE P

The working men of this Territory have
friend in their midst whose identity it
would be satisfactory to establish. He is
the Virginia correspondent of the San
Francisco Ns.cs Letter. How much inAu-
ence his suggestions may have over the
mine and mill owners we are unable to
Judge, but it is well that our miners, who
don't often see the Meas Letter, may know
what the correspondent is driving at. We
make the following extract from his letter
oflast Wednesday:
al viii only here cite one instance where
cheap labor could be employed to give addi-
tional work to more intelligent labor: the
Yellow Jacket mine, at the head Of which is
Mr.. Day, one of the strongest advocates Of
high-priced labor. I will ask him whether
he could not make it greatly to the interests
of his Company if he could afford to work
his ninety-foot ledge. But how One-third
Of it cannot be worked at the present cost Of
mining and milling; but let him put to work,
as subordinates, forty Cinnamon at 81 per
day, and over these, one hundred miners at
90 " ana % per Jay. Nouiu noI tnls ue
great benefit to labor, and are not these hun
bred men readily to be had, but that they
were precluded by the Association Are
there not hundreds Of men who would hail it
as special Providence to be furnished per-
manent work here at So so or So per day !?
But their tyrants and masters already at work
will not allow them to work at all, except at
81 or more"
If the correspondent (" would call a
public meeting and make his Chinese sug-
gestions in the presence of the miners
themselves, he would show more grit than
he does in hiding himself in an anony-
nous cloak, but we must confess that We
should admire his pluck more than his
Judgment.

BULLION FROM SULLIVAN DIsTRIcT.-
We were shown, on Saturday, a handsome
lump of bullion FROM the Etna mine in
Sullivan District about nine miles south
ofDayton. The certificate of Chas. Uznay
showed il to be the result of working
test of 2545 pounds of rock. The lump
of bullion weighs 2lA ounces and is about
so per cent gold. Therock was taken out
with view to practical test of the work
ing value of the ledge and is believed to
be fair criterion. The facilities of work
ing the mines of that district are excellent,
there being an unlimited supply of free
pure water, and wood at four dollars per
cord, and rock could be crushed at a profit
for ten dollars per ton. When times shall
become little easier. the Sullivan district
win occupy prominent position among
the silver regions.

In A FIx.-The safe Of Clark & Co.'s Bank
at Salt Lake, is provided with combination
lock. The other night the manager OF the
bank locked the safe and retired to bed next
morning he could not open the safe, and
vainly tried for week to open it. A black
smith then offered to open It in four days for
i've hundred dollars, or forfeit that amount
The Yedette, Of the 4ih, says three of the
four days had expired, but the lock was still
closed. Meanwhile the business of the bank
is suspended-illustrating the fact that a
bank may sometimes be too safe for its Gus
toners and proprietors.

for the man who receives but SIG month, al
though he may have had paid to him liberal
bounties on entering the service. One OF the
means of raising men, and one that VIII re-
dound to the honor of the man who thus raises
his representative man when the history Of this
rebellion shall be faithfully written, Is for men
of wealth to secure each man to take the
place in the army that they themselves are not
fitted for by reason of age, disease or any 9TH
err cause, and pay them literally, and agree
that their wives and children, If they have any,
shall be provided with the comforts of life in
their absence or in case they should fall in bat
tie or by disease. Men are wanted-determ-
ned, brave, unflinching men, together with
the means of supplying them with ammunition,
provisions, hospital stores, dc. Give General
Grant these in numbers and quantity equal to
the Importance of the undertaking, and moth
Ing but the interposition of Divine Providence
can prevent him and his brave associates from
taking Petersburg and Richmond and subdu-
ing the rebellion, the persistency and endur-
ance of which has been beyond the compre-
hension of any one. We are now contending
for principle, involved in the establishment
of this government Oh the broad basis OF uni
veIsal freedom. The eyes Of the world are
upon us, and the good and true Of all nations

and the Army be sustained 10 the fullest ex-
tent necessary to bring the war to a speedy
