A SLIGHT DIscREPANcy.-Ad dispatch
from Washington says that the full print
ed report of the Postmaster General is
now ready for circulation. The subject
Of receipts and expenditures is treated OF
in three pages in the volume, and the re-
suit in each case differs very widely from
either of the others. In Mr.. RANDALL's
personal report he states taat there is in
excess of receipts over the expenditures OF
$4,000, and these figures appear in the
President Message with the remark that
it shows the condition Of the department
in very favorable light. The tables ac-
companying RANpALL's report show de-
fciency of 81 900, 900, while the report OF
the Sixth Auditor, also appended, shows
the deficiency to be S5,99S, OO0.- Madison

This does have the appearance Of a
"slight discrepancy" As Andy is report

fluid, why may We not infer that the Sixth
Auditor was also tight when the respcc-
tive statements were made? Wont this
explain it, Mr.. journal?
