Synopsis OF the Report of the Eecreta.
ry of the Treasury.
New York, Dec. 3.-The following is
summary of the report of the Score
tary of the Treasury:
The receipts have exceeded the esti-
mates S, $500, 500, 504; the expenditures
have fallen short of the estimates 500
90, 923 $50. he recommends further
diminution in the internal taxes. and
says the present generation, with pro-
per economy, can pay the debt. He
regrets notwithstanding the large re-
duction of the national debt and the
satisfactory condition in other respects
OF the national treasury, that little pro-
gress has been made since his last report
toward specie payments. He explains
at length his action concerning the dis
posal of the surplus gold. He recon-
mends that the national banks be COM
PEELED to redeem Mt a single Atlantic
city curtailment of the currency-care-
tul revision of the tariff to make il
harmonic without internal taxes the
issue of 20 year or less of bonds at
per cent, payable in England or Ger
many, to an amount sufficient to absorb
the = per cent. bonds now held in Eu-
rope, and to meet the demand there for
actual and permanent investment and
Inc rehabilitation of the Southern
States. He urges these recommenda-
tons at length, and says he is of the
opinion that specie payments NAV be
resumed and ought TO be resumed as
early as the first day of July, 1868. Tie
public debt October 81, 1866, exclusive
ofthe cash in the treasury, was S28S.-
I63, $50, 1874; cash in the treasury Sl3, O32,-
696,O62. AS to the commercial inter
course with the British Americas, the
Secretary advertes to his opinion that
until our revenue system is fully re-
vised and adjusted to the financial sit
t uation or the country, this subject
troll of Congress, but should be left to
concurrent legislation, and such regu-
lations as may be authorized by law to
prescribe: The remainder of the report
is devoted TO statistical details.

NEW YORK, December "A special
from Boston to the World saws; The
Fenian Brotherhood here have regu-
larry organized, and are receiving full
equipments for infantry, cavalry and
artillery discipline.
There is no doubt but that James
Stephens is on French soil, giving di-
rectiOns to the movements in Ireland
and in this country. His arrival in
Paris is known in this city. The pres
ent effort of the Fenians to redeem their
Isle has the sympathy of the French
Emperor, and it will not be astonish-
ing to learn that the G. o. 1. r. is in
clandestine communication with his
compHtriots in Ireland, at the hands oil
French police, manipulated for that
purpose.
a dispatch in peculiar cipher agreed
upon when Mr.. Stephens left New
York has been received from the Great
Organizer, containing important infor-
nation not yet made public, but which
will be given at the proper time. It is
supposed to relate to the exact time
when the Fenians shall start on their
mission to Canada, the number OF
stations to be made by the Western Fe.
mans in Canada and the movement oil
the New England Fenians against the
condemned Fenians. 1t is successful
p an whereby he is enabled to advise
and be advised In all important mat
tiers. The collection of arms still con-
tinues here.
NEW York, Dec. IA Washington
special states that the three members
elect from Tennessee, who were not
here last session to be sworn in to Con-
gress with their colleagues, are now in
Washington.
A bill is to be Immediately intro
duced for the election of public printer
by Congress. -
A resolution will be offered in Con-
gress for u committee to proceed to New
Orleans to investigate the causes of the
July massacre. ~.
In his speech at the caucus yesterday,
Mr.. Boutwell, said that Congress would
not be faithful to its trust If it did moi
thoroughly investigate the official aO-
tons OF Andrew johnson since he be-
came President.
NEW York, Dec. 3d.-A corresponds
ent at Milledgeville, Ga, writes that the
tutional amendment by the Legislature
of that State were that there were nc
guarantees given that the admission oil
the State to the Union would follow its
adoption, and that the people consider
it the height ofingratitude to disfran-
chise those who were lately their sol
diers. They have began to look calmly
at the possibility of negro suffrage as q
means of re-admission, but it is still
revolving to them. &
A bill has been under consideration
in the Legislature looking to the estab-
lishment of common schools for the
whites and blacks throughout the
State, and will probably be passed.
Emigration from the North is en-
Outraged, and much capital has already
flowed in from that section.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-The House
has just repealed the 18th section of the
amnesty act, authorizing the President
to grant pardons, by a vote of Ill to
%. This vote is a fair indication of the
tone strength of the parties in the pres
ent Congress.
A bill has been introduced into the
House by Mr.. Boutwell,, directing the
Monday, and another by Mr.. SchencE,
of Ohio, providing for the meeting OF
Congress on the 4th of March next.
Both will pass by large majorities.
"A bill has just been introduced in the
House taken from the President all app
pointments of revenue officers and
giving the appointing power to Chief
Justice Chase.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-The following is
summary of the Postmaster Gener9lIs
report:
The expenditures for the year exceed
the receipts 1886, O93; the increase Of
revenue compared with the previous
year was Is per cent, and increase OF
expenditures II per cent, including a
standing appropriation for free mail
matter of S1OO,0OO, n legitimate portion
of the revenue is yet remaining unex-
pended; the actual deficiency for the
past year is only S265, 093; the aggre-
gate length Ofmail routes in operation
the past year was $50, 92l miles. During
the year much of the service in the late
insurgent States was in operation only
part of the year; the net postal liabili-
ties from these States, while in opera
ton, exceed the receipts by S75, 1888:
there has been an increase the past
year in those States of l ,Ol6 routes. Al

more than one-half of the mail routes
in those States have been put in opera
ton, comprising nearly nine-tenths OF
the railroad routes; the contractors have
been fined $780, 02 for delinquencies.
There has been an increase in'-the
postage, upon the correspondence
exchanged with foreign countries.
postal convention has been conclu-
ded with Italyan Venezuela. A basis
for new convention with Great Brit
ain has been agreed upon containing
many advantages. A convention with
Brazil is also proposed. Considerable
space is devoted to the mail steamship
line to Japan and China. The Post
master General concurs with his prede-
cessor in the opinion that the steam
ships of the main line between San
Francisco, japan and China ahould not
be required TO touch at the Sandwich
Islands; but Congress must determine
the conditions of release. He urges a
liberal policy toward the enterprise
The free delivery in operation in forty
six of the principal cities is working
satisfactorily. The number of money
order offices in operation is ZIG against
347 last year, and 81 more are to be es-
tablished in the Pacific States and Ter
ritories. The business, compared with
that of last year, has almost trebled.
he recommends further Legislation
upon the subject to correct the inconsis-
tencies and for the improvement OF
the system. Much space is devoted to
miscellaneous matters.
