The New York Tribune this morning says:-
"Money is moro active amorg brokers, and
per cent. is readily had on call. Upon Federal
stocks lower rates are made. Commercial paper
sells at 7019 for best and 09l5 for second grade.
Exchange is lower under the growing conf
dence in Federal stocks in Europe, and the
latest advices in regard to the supply of cotton.

The statement of the public debt shows that
Mr.. McCulloch is steadily retiring his circula-
ton, and getting his debts into long stock.

The National Banks are increasing their
issues but their right to make circulation will
soon reach the legal limit.
"A despatch from Washington says:-"The
receipts from internal revenue have averaged
nearly 81, 900, 900 per day for the four days of
this month. The entire receipts since the 1st
day of July last amount to $1S3, 194, ,437'O4.
Secretary McCulloch will probably revise his
estimate of the cotton coming forward the cur
rent year, and place it in the vicinity of O00
bales, instead of 100000 The members OF the
Internal Revenue Commission also concur in
this estimate. tits urged by prominent officers
connected with the financial department of the
Government that amendment to the Con5tItu-
ton is Lot at all necessary to secure largo
revenue from cotton. They urge that an excise.
tax of ten cents per pound be levied on all cotton
raised, whether for domestic use or export.
This will obViate the necessity for an amend-
ment to the Constitution, which eventually
might operate unfavorably, TO say nothing of Il ;
good policy of letting that instrument sta a
without amendment, except when imperatively
demanded for the good of the nation"
