PuBLrc DEBr.-Iti Is given out at the treasury
department that the forthcoming statement OF
the public debt, on the 18th of October, will sho "
a slight decrease, only about four and three.
quarter millions Of dollars having been paid out
for interest on the ten.forty bonds and the regu-
lar expenditure not having been unusually large.
II j. estimated that the internal revenue receipts
will be about 50, 600, 900, and the customs have
averaged about four hundred and fifty thousand
dollars day. They pave the way for an increase
in the debt, however, by saying that the internal
revenue receipts are the most uncertain elementin
forming an estimate, as the bulk Of the collections
are often deposited within the last few days Of the
month.

In another column We publish the prospectus
of the Photographic Magazine" to be edited
and published by two gentlemen, for whose
ability to make their periodical all that it purports
TO be, we can vouch. When writing ia a necessity,
as in this age it has become to all persons of cul
ture and intelligence, it is certainly desirable to
possess the best and speedest means of commit
ting thoughts to paper. Phonography, a strictly
philosophic and legib.e system of phonetic short
hand, provides the means of writing words as
rapidly as they are spoken. If you would secure
the subtle thoughts that Cow into your own mind,
or that you feel worth preserving while listening
to the spoken thoughts of others, learn phono.
graphy. If you are a physician, and would pre-
serve q record of your cases, so that from your
accumulated experience you may help to evolve
the laws of health and disease, learn photography.
If you are minister, and would save fve-sxths
of the time you at present employ in writing your
notes. or celebrating your sermons in full, learn
photography. If you are lawyer, and would
secure the fieeting testimony on which may de-
pend the fortune life, or honor of your Client learn
phonouaphy. If you are student, and would
fully benefit by the oral instruction of your pro-
fessors and teachers, lie arm photography. Ifyou
are desirous of qualifying yourself for the useful
and honorable profession of a reporter-should
your education and abilities in other respects
warrant such a determination-learn phono-
erapby, for it is not only lucrative calling, but
to young men Of talent il is one of the most GER
tain stepping stones to a position of honor and
emolument. If you would learn photography in
a series of short lessons, read the prospectus of
the Photographic Magazine, and think well over
the advantages to be derived from knowledge
of shorthand before you lose this opportunity Of
acquiring it.
