UoW no Sy0P THE LEXIS.

The clouds Which still overcast our National
sky are mainly Financial; and Gen. Grant 5
Administration will prove a triumph or fan
ure according as it shall demonstrate ability or
inability to reduce the burden OF the National
Debt. Its Grst need, therefore, is Retrench-
ment in Public Expenditures; but its second,
and scarcely inferior, Is to enhance the Nationai
Income by putting an cud to tic gigahtic
frauds which have for years reduced the Reyc-
nue. by from Fifty TO One Hundred ana fiity
Millions per annum.
How shall this be done
We expect something from the passage OF
Mr. Schenck's general bill, and something more
from a general infusion of honesty and vigor
into the service consequent on the accession ol
Gen. Grant But there is a more specific means
of opcrating to this end which seems to us
worthy of consideration. Here is lis outline;
Assuming that fIs;-Iatc Secretary of the
Treasury is assisted by an equally fit Commis-
sioner of internal Revenue, we hold that the
proper district officers should bc held account
able foe the success or failure Oi Their Efforts
TO assess and collect the internal Revenue after
this fashion:

SDCClncQ NSiltl, anu obiltn NViiN'''A' = Nv
Commissioner should give them fair notice
that they must secure to the Government the
internal revenue nghtfully collcctable from
that district, or must give place TO successors.
Each, when appointed. Should be distinctly
fold "Thc fair honest cost OF Whisky in your
district is SAY 81 % per gallon; we shall
keep strict watch over it, and whenever we
" find any selling therein for II 10 or less, we
{" shall want your Office for another man.
So of Tobacco; so of other heavily taxed
articles. If a person cannot collect the revenue
that Is reason enough for letting some one else
try in his stead. "Augers that won't bore are
out of place in such service; they must
give place to such rs viii. Only let the Asses
sor and Collector know that, whenever the
prices current prove them unable to do the
work for which they are paid, they must get
out. and what are now moral impossiblues
will soon sink into mere difficulties, aud then
fade away altogether. AT all events, we trust
this plan viii receive fair consideration.
