GEORGE PEABODY.

A London paper, speaking of the
magnificent gift of Mr.. George Peabody
who has bestowed quarter of million
sterling on the poor of London, and the
trustees of this fund, since the first in
stallment of fl50, 900 was placed in their
hands, have thought it best employed in
the construction of improved dwellings,
as described in their lately published re.
port, remarks that the site chosen was
in Commercial street, Spitalfelds, near
the terminus Of the Eastern Counties
Railway where space equal to 1882
square feet was obtained from the Com
missioners of Public Works for So, 800.
BY further expenditure of something
under 924, 900 for buildings, accommoda-
ton was obtained for upwards of 200
persons, in tenements of one, two or
three apartments each, according to the
requirements of The several occupants
The latter sum included also the cost OF
erecting nine shops on the ground floor,
the rents of which, amounting to nearly
$500 per annum, 20 to increase the gem
eral fund, and thus contribute to the re-
productive character, which it is the
desire of the trustees to impart to it.
Before the dwellings at Spitalfields
were completed, the trustees were ena-
bled to possess themselves of other sites
in districts similarly claiming attention.
At Chelsea aplot, containing 1855 feet,
was obtained for e4,6l6, 1Ss. Cd; for
another at Bermondsey, with an area OF
27,SSO square feet, they gave s4,S70, U.s.,
3d. fourth at Islington, measuring
Al, 1868 square feet, they gave es646, 5s.,
Cd; and for ca, 800 fifth was acquired at
Shadwell, the extent of which is over
"a, $3.50 square feet. While the houses in
Commercial street were still in progress,
the trustees commenced, at Islington,
the erection of four blocks of buildings,
TO com prise in all los tenements, with
ample accommodationsfor upwards OF
$50 persons. The whole cost of these
buildings, exclusive of the sum paid for
theland, will amount, when the accounts
shall have been closed, To E3l $780, Be-
fore the square at Islington was finished
the trustees entered into contract for
the sum of sS7 1858 to build on aasimilar
scale or their property at Shadwell, and
the works are now considerably ad-
vanced.
On the Goth of February, 1864, the
first pile of buildings, erected in Com
mercial street, Spitalfields, was thrown
open to receive its inmates, and the
number of applicants was and continues
to be considerably in excess of the ac-
comm odation available. The number
who took possession of their new homes
in Sptalfelds was upwards of two hum
dred, including such classes as charwo-
men. monthly nurses, basket makers,
butchers, carpenters, firemen, laborers,
porters, omnibus drivers, seamstresses,
shoemakers, tailors, walters and ware
housemen. In the buildings at Isling-
ton, which were opened last September,
the inmates are of the same class, with
the addition of persons employed in
other trades-watch finishers, turner's

THE PERILS OF THE COUNTRY
The following startling report by the
internal Revenue Commission has not
yet been made public by the Secretary
of the Treasury;
TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFICE OF THE U. 3. kRvENUE COMMISSION,
March 1R66

TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFICE THE U. g. kRvENUE COMMISSION,
March, 1885.
Hon. Hugh McCstIloch, Secretary Of the Treasury
SIR: The past commercial history of
the United States furnishes much un-
pleasant and not little unhappy expe.
rience in reference to the effect of over
trading upon our currency, our public
finances, and our industry. We should
not fail to recall that experience, now
that such over-tradiIg is recurring un-
der circumstances far more hazardous.
If formerly such occasions caused ruin
GUS contractions, suspensions of specie
payment, and spread insolvency through
Ill business circles, and for years check
ed the progress of production, there is
good reason tO fear that worse evils
might now follow too great an expan-
sion Of foreign trade. We must not for
get that from year to year we become
more and more exposed to species of
foreign trade which has befallen no
other country to the same extent. Our
foreign merchants may have at times
overdOne their business, but seldom to
the extent of severely damaging domes-
tic interests our special trouble is
that foreign commodities are forced into
our markets, through the agency of
auctions, in manner SO insidious that
the evi. is accomplished before the Gov.
eminent, or those who are interested to
be on their guard, are aware, and before
they can adopt measures of precautiop.
According to all the usual indications,
over-importation has begun and is now
proceeding upon a scale SO large as to
command public attention, aud to re-
quire effective measures of defense. The
Custom House returns, however shorl
they are of revealing the full value o.
the goods now coming in, show large
and steady advance of imports for the
last six months. What makes this more
important Is that the exports are falling
OF very largely, showing that the for.

1t is apparent from these statements
that, during the last half of the year of
1865, aud for the months of January and
February, 1866 the foreign importations
have been increasing at rate which
threatens all the mercantile, as well as
the Industrial interests of the country to
such degree as not only to justify, but
demand the Intervention of the Govern.
ment.
This excess Of imports, it should be
remembered, is not chiefly at the in
stance of citizens of the United States.
1t involves an amount of injury to our
markets aud our industry which is
frightrul TO contemplate. Already is
this vast speculation of foreign capital
lists felt in New York and elsewhere.
Hundreds of millions may be lost by the
merchants, and manufacturers within a
mouth, If steps are not taken imme-
diately to check this enormous evil. A
panic is now impending, which the
Government may prevent by timely
action, and thus save the people from
disaster, and the revenue from serious
tiimunition during the remainder of this
year, and perhaps for several years to
come. The joint resolution hereto ap-
pended, is earnestly recommended to
your attention and that of Congress.

In the presence of these and many
forced upon us, that special legislation
and home industry from widespread
damage, which, when it comes, must
also seriously impair our Internal Reve-
nue.. We may safely import all the
foreign commodities that our own mer-
chants, in the exercise of a proper dis
erection, would order. They are judges
of what the markets will bear, but we
cannot safely admit that all foreigners
in different parts of the world may send
to our ports. Their over production,
over-trading and their irregular COM
mercial movements should not be visited
upon our industrious classes, who have
at all times domestic troubles enough of
theirown. So essential to the credit of
the country now is the regular collec-
ton of National income, that no risk
should be run. We cannot raise the
needful revenue of one year from foreign
commodities, and if we could, we should
wholly fail to raise it the following year
by any mode of taxation.
There is a great necessity that our In
ternal Revenue system should receive,
without delay, a most careful revision
the distribution being changed, and the
rates lessened so as to relieve industry
from some of its most crushing burdens.
Without such relief there Is serious dan
ger OF very great fiscal disturbance. Un-
happily, this revision will consume
time, aud yet it must precede the revi-
sion of the tariff, In national aud fiscal
pgint of view, even more Indispensable.
For ipconsiderable, comparatively, as it
is, and must be the amount of our con-
sumption of foreign goods, yet their i'm
portation, though under fifteen per cent
of the whole amount, may have such an
effect upon domestic prices as to infiict
loss upon home production, great
enough to absorb the revenue of several
years.
A proper revision of the tariff No in
wolves not only an adjustment of the
cost of production here to the cost
abroad, the price of labor here to the
price abroad, that our home production,
from which the bulk of our revenue
must be obtained. may not be checked
nor crushed, but a not less careful adj
justment of the duties 9th tariff to the
internal taxation. This is by far the
most difficult task which has yet been
proposed to American legislation.
