It behooyes the holders OF Georgia securl-
ties to intervene between those who contrib
ute the supplies and those who expend them
with lavish hand, thus themselves being
only benefited by their own prodlgality. The
present Legislature Is too careless Of expend-
iture. Those who control them do not find
fault with them on that account but only
because they do not allow them more range
as vast as their range Is. The Georgia con.
test looks in truth very much like war be-
| tween taxpayers on the one side and mer.
cenaries on the other.

Army Reforms,

The House Military Committee is now engaged
in considering what measures are necessary
or expedient for the more efficient manage
ment Of the army and the reduction Of the
military expenses of the Government. Sec
retary Schofeld has presented his views on
the questions OF army retrenchment and
reform to the committee, and he proposes a
number OF important changes, the most pro-
minent of which 10 that the War and Navy
Departments should be under one Secretary,
the military branch to be managed by a
general and the naval by an admiral. A great
objection to this roposition is that 1t would
reduce the number of Cabinet officers, and
its doubtful expediency under any circum-
stances will cause Congress to hesitate about
adopting it. The majority Of Secretary
Schofeld's recommendations appear, however,
to be extremely judiciOus, and calculated not
only to save money to the Treasury, but
greatly to promote the efficiency of the army.
With regard to the prOprety of the transfer
ofthe Indian Bureau to the War Department,
we do not suppose that there is any difference
of opinion outside Of Congress among disin
terested persons; and there is general desire
on the part Of the people that Congress will
accede to the wishes Of Grant, .sOhO6eld, shsr
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1869-02-06

AMONG all the departments of the Govern
ment, none have had their permanent labors
so much increased by the war and its con-
comitant, the national debt, as the Treasury.
The Secretary, who is entrusted with the super
vision Of the customs and internal revenue,
the public expenditures, and the public debt,
must possess marvellous capacities to bs
enabled to act wisely and promptly in refer
ence to all these subjects, and to protect the
financial interests of the nation at all points.
1t is notorious that the revenue laws are
constantly evaded, and one of the most
important of the obvious reasons for
their imperfect execution is to be found in the
onerous labors imposed upon the Treasury.
An effort was made at the last session OF
Congress to remedy this evil by erecting the
Internal Revenue Bureau into q separate de-
partment, with the Commissioner at it's head;
but although this measure was regarded
with considerable favor, it was not adopted.
A Washington despatch announces that an
other movement in similar direction is about
to be made by Senator who proposes to
establish Department of Revenue" which
is to consist of the present Customs and In-
ternal Revenue Bureaus, and to be
placed under the charge of a
new Cabinet officer. This division would give
ample employment to the heads of both de-
partments, and at the same time afford them
opportunities to supervise all important bust
ness. A head of the Department Of Revenue
could be appointed with special reference to
his qualifications for thwartng the schemes
of the official and unofficial rogues who now
prey upon the Government; while Secretary
of the Treasury could be chosen with reference
to his ability to discharge the numerous
duties afpertaining to the present depart
ment which do not relate to the collection oi
revenue.
