Delmar assumes that the revenue from
customs will fall off SIS, 900 900, and that
from Internal Revenue S69, 000, 900 from
last year; although for several months
of the year ending July LIST the rates OF
taxation were the same they now are.
The changes in the Internal Revenue
law at the last session will doubtless
diminish the yield from taxes; but Il Is
very doubtful whether the falling of
will be as great as the excess of revenue
above expenditure for the year 1888;
which, as given by Mr.. DelmarI him
self, was more than thirty-hve million
dollars. It is very unlikely 10 be as
much as this, with the addition of the
saving made by the reduction OF ap-
preparations this year in the Navy De-
partment alone. In the customs reve-
nue. there is no sufficient reason for
believing that the year will show any
falling Off at all.
On the whole, then, the essential facts
of the financial situation, as set forth
The nation has really reduced its debt,
by considerable sum, every year since
the war. The total reduction already
effected is not less than one.fourth of
the whole amount, including unaudIt-
ed accounts, due in March, 1856. Tho
revenues show an elasticity which
promises that under a wise administra-
ton taxation can be steadily reduced
hereafter, and all the liabilities of the
nation met in perfect good faith. The
expenses of the government, under the
rigid economy practised by Congress,
are rapidly decreasing. With Grant as
President, and peaceful reconstruction
in the Southern States, there Will be a
smooth and natural way to the restora-
ton of specie payments, and OF the
highest standard OF the national credit
that patriotism itself can desire. III,
