tbs NEW 1oRK REVENUE AGExcY.-The New
lork Times publishes the operations during the
past year OF the Revenue Agency in that city. The
article states that, owing to frauds, etc. up to the
period when this Office established in October
1864, not more than one-third of the revenue due
the Government had been either assessed or col.
iected In the cities OF New York and BROOKLYN
there was collected during the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1864, Sl3,7Si,203 as This office com
meneed lis la5ors on October LIST, 1864 and its
inspectors were set to work tracing and convicting
those who were Withholding money due 10 the
Government, and informing tax payers of their
duties under the law, and urging strict compliance
herewith. The increased returns for the wear
ending June 30, 1865, are due in great measure
to the labors of this office. Frauds have been dis
covered by local agents Of the Bureau of a fearful
proportion. The Government was cheated by ali
classes, and not unfrequently by men loudest in
their prctensons Of loyalty. An example is cited
of the result of an investigation into the monthly
returns OF n large house engaged in the gold and
stock brokerage business, which showed de6
Cheney in returns of over $4,000, 900 By direct
application, the local agency has turned over TO
the Government, taxes otherwise withheld to the
amount of 100000
