bonds, 10 be known as the consolidated
debt Of the United States, bearing 8 per
cent. and having twenty years run,
into which all other obligations of the
Government shall be as rapidly as posi-
bic converted, one sixth part Of the inter-
est ct each semi-snnual payment 20 be
reserved by the Government and paid
over to the States according 70 their
proposition. The Secretary estimates the
receipts aud expenditures for the three
quarters, ending June 80, 1857 at two
hundred and ninsky-six million dollars.
Expenditures same period 1896, 900, 600,
leaving a surplus Of Sf00, 600. Receipts
for the next fiscal year, ending June 30,
1863, are estimated at 1881 900, 600. The
expenditures for the same period are esti-
mated at 1872, 600, 600, leaving a surplus
of estimated receipts over estimated ex-
penditures of So, 900, 600. Since the lst
day of September, 1865, the debt has
been reduced s286, ,1S5, 121. This reduo-
ton has been made under very unfavOr-
able circumstances, and there is no good
reason why it should not be continued
steadily and without interruption until
every dollar of the National debt is ex-
tinguished.

lating notes that the Government may 4
issue its own notes in their place, saying 1
that the fact stands UnchaIlenged that
the Government can issue its notes only
in the payment Of its debts, and there is
no possible relation between the amount
that may be required and which may be
issued for the purpose and the amount of
required to do the business of

Sir j. Hsrsehel on the Brightness Of the

sly - Af ESeheA on the Brightness Of the
sun.
Let me say something new of the
light of the sun. The means we have of
measuring the intensity Of light are not
nearly so exact as in the case of heat !;
but this at least we knoW-that the most
intense lights we can produce arti-
ficially are as nothing compared sur
face for surface with the sun. The most
brilliant and beautiful light which can be
artiicially produced is that of a ball of
quick lime kept violently hot by a fame
Of mixed ignited oxygen and hydrogen
gases playing on its surface. Such ball,
il brought near enough to appear of the
same size as the sun does, can no more
be looked at without hurt than the sun,
and both so enfeebled by a dark glass as
to allow Of their being looked at together,
it appears as black spot upon the sun,
or as the black outline of the moon in an
eclipse, seen thrown upon it. It has
been aseertained by experiments, which
l cannot now describe, that the bright
ness, the intrinsic splendOr Of the surface
Of such lime-balf is only the l46th part
of that Of the suns surface. That is
to say, that the sun gives out as much
light as l46 balls of quicklime, each the
size Of the sun, and each heated all over
It's SURFACE IN Jhe way have described,
which is the most intense heat We can
raise, and in which platina melts like
lead. And then in further sec
ton Sir John Herschell tells us
that the neuclus or kernel of the sun
itself, at an immeasurabla depth beneath
its intensely luminous philosophers, emits
so little light as to appear in the compar-
ison, quite black, though that does not
fa hai ir1rr in "A 20, ,F
fiery glare as q white not iron, when we
remember what has been said of the
lime light appearing black against the
light OF the SUMS surface. And it is q
fact that when Venus aud Mercury pass
across the sun, and are seen as round
spas on it, they do really appear blacker
than the blaCker parts Of the spots; so
that even the kernel Of the sur Is pruba-
bly, luminous body, though so much
less luminous than its outer envelopes as
to seem quite dark in the comparison.

on Thursday last, gentleman
and lady got of a steamer at
Burlington, Desmoines county, Iowa, and
went together to the Burlington
House, and the gentleman registered
their names as J. A. Smith Of Chicago
and Mrs. Moore Of Chicago. and
rooms were assigned to them adj
joining each other. They retired,
and nothing was heard from them
until half past five o'clock in the morn
ing, when the discharge Of a pistol and
cry ofmurder was heard from the room
occupied by the man. On reaching the
room Smith was found laying on the
floor with pistols shot wound ia his head
He said be had been shot by Mrs. Moore.
This she denied, and accused him of shoot
ing himself. But pistol was found in
Mrs MOOre's carpet beg, which the
ball, (which was found on the floor,
having glanced from the mans
head, inflieting only flesh wound, fitted
and the crime was fastened upon her
beyond a doubt. The man is not seri-
ously injured. An examination of the two
develops the fact that the mans real
name is Epstean; that he is now a travel
ing drummer for Chicago house; that
he formely kept store in a small town
in Tennessee, whence be and Mrs. Moore
eloped, leaving her husband behind.

HEPOhI OF The CONIkOLLER OF THE
CURRENCY.

The Controller of Currency says that
at present there is no immediate demand
for the redemption Of National Bank
notes, but it would be the healthiest evi-
dence Of returning soundness in our
financial affairs if such could be inaugu-
rated. If legal tenders should command
3 small premium it would begin.
He condemns the practice, prevailing
more or less, Of banks in the principal
cities Of paying interest on the balances
OF country banks, and suggests that
funds required by law to be held in re-
serve for the protection Of bill holders
and deposits, should not be deposited
in city banks under conditions that in
volve their constant employment and
consequent risk.
