in 1867, and $29, ,4S2, OF SO in. 1866
The decrease the past year Is attribut-
able to frauds, and the Commissioner
says that sthe remedy lies in the i'm
proved character of the revenue and
iddicial officers rather than IN the in
creased stringency of the Law. or the
improved regulations and requirements
Of the Office. s1tiH

699, 200 46.
The increase is attributed to the

ceipts during the months of July, Au-
gust, and September, 1868, compared

The Commissioner makes several
suggestions about the law. and recon-
mends that the Internal Revenue De-
partment should be made a depart
ment of its own. and not a mere ap-
pendage to the Treasury.
