The President, on Monday, sent to tie
Senate the nomination Of Hon. J. O. Norton,
Of Joliet, as L. s District Attorney for
Northern Illinois Il Is also understood that
the appointment Of Gen. 7. Q. Osborn is
agreed upon and will be sent in rs Postmas>
ter at Chicago, and Col. c. 7. Hotchkiss IS
Pension agent.
There Is, however, little chance Of the con
firma.ion Of these appointments by tie
Senate. particularly of the military men. 1t
Is hard to tell why, but Of the few late APP
po:ntmcu.s of the President which the Senate
has confirmed, all were civilians. Among
Tie reflections by the Senate last Saturday
were the following, all military men OF I'M
exccptionable military as well as political
record, from a republican stand point:
Col Il. Cheney, as Assessor of LIST Dist,
Wisconsin Col Geo. Ginty. 9TH Dist, same
state: Col. A. j. Fulton, as assessor 18th
Dist. Pa. Private VIM. Edwards, faithful
soldier. nominated as Postmaste at Kc okuk,

Though all good republicans, the Senate
seems to regard the possibility Of these SOL
diers. after their confirmation, becoming the
political friends Of the President, as supreme

National Finances.

The total receipts from internal revenue,
customs, miscellaneous sources, and sales Of
publ:c lands. for the Gscal year ending June
90. will, it is stated at the Treasury Departs
ment, foot up over $4,000 600 The re
ceipts from internal revenue, as estimated
will be S3l5, OOO, OG0; customs, 5l70.000, 900;
direct tax, about s2.0OO,OOO; from miscel-
laneous sources, sj5,o)o,o eco, aud from sales
of public lands. abou. $500, 600.
The public debt from Jane 80, 1865, to
jane 80, 1856, has been reduced little
over Sl09,o0G,000 During the next year.
with the present rate Of taxation, under an
economical administration of the governs
rent, the public debt should lie decreased
nearly $500, OGO;60G There is neither good
sense nor common justice in keeping the
revenue up to such figure. Yet, instead
of reducing the taxes, congress IS increasing
them, and on many important articles OF
/ common use has more than doubled the
tariff. It is found that high taxes of all
kinds benefit the New England manuiac-
.urers, and this is the whole secret why cons
gress, instead of cutting dowp tie taxes aud
the public revenue, make it their study, by
extlh ava CANT appropriation for national cleo
mosvnary schemes, to increase the excuse
and necessity for high taxes.
