Inns SHOWS an increase IN the month Just closed of

which would leave less than tOrty-six millions to he
made w by ouposs in order TO realize our estimate
Of olSbWeHJ, as tue aggregate Of the years rev
enue from customs duties exclusively.
This revenue Is specifically pledged to meet the m
nual c0n-iDterest charge the national debt which
al the date Of the latest official exhibit IDeGenhar
1865 stood at $6S 32,25. The disbursements on the
coin-interest account through the United Stats

nave been only ,5j4, less than a third of the
customs receipts Of the Office. which holds cash
balance Gin coin and currency to the credit Of the
Government. CT Sl5 l260iG against $50 643 the
lst of February. The receipts of the Office from all
sources. in the past month, were Sl45,5JJUu.
Government has also received two hundred ana
twenty million dollars from internal revenue in the
past thirythree weeks Of the current fiscal year or
equa! to weekly average Of over six million and six
hNn4red thousand dollars, which would give yearly
aEfIesate Of nearly three hundred and fOrty-tOur
mllNnn dollars.
Added to the probable customs revenue in coin, on
the basis OF the ruling prices Of gold this would
make the national income from both sources men
"fed ana ninety million dollars in lawful money or
eighteen million dollars in excess of the

anticipated revenue from sales Of public lands ana
other miscellaneous sources and we may fairly as
that the grand income Of the National Treasury
for the year ending on the 30th of June next viii!
approximate six hundred and fifty million dollars in
currency.
1t would seem obvious from these facts that Secre-
taTy MeCulioch can experience insurmOuntable
difficulty IN his efforts to make adequate provision
Tor all the recognized obligations of the Government
on or before maturity, well to resoutely nauEu-
