WELLS, REPORT.

The Special Commissioner Of Internal Rev.
enue, Hon. David A. Wells sent TO Cong
to-day his third annual report The report
has been looked forward to with interest as
embodying the views OF a clear. headed thinker
and patient investigator OF the subjects treated
Mr.. Wells. in presenting his views upon the
policy Of legislation likely to prove hereafter
most advantageous to the revenue. and most
certain to establish the credit and industry OF
the country upon a sound basis, deals first with
the question Of the present conditIcn of the
capital and industry of the country. The re-
suit ne arrives at are that the aggregate wealth
oi OIL ,ne country Is increasing, probably as rap
loly ss al any former period; yet il
does not follow that there is the same
increase IN general prosperity. The laborer,
especially ne who has large family to sup.
port, is not as prosperous as he was in 1859
His wages have not increased in proportion TO
the increase in the cost OF his living. There is,
therefore, an inequality in the distribution of
our annual product, which we must, in no
small degree, refer to artificial causes. This
inequality exists even among the working
classes themselves. The single man or woman
working for his or her support alone, is in the
receipt OF rate OF wages from which savings
may be made equal, or greater than ever before,
especially in the manufacturing towns, where
the price of board is. to a certain extent, regu
lated artIficially by the employer. Unmarried
operatives, therefore, gain; while those who
are obliged to support their own families i'm
hired tenements lose. Hence, deposits in saw
ingS banks increase, while marriaga ia a.
couraged: and the forced employment of vonn1
children is made almost a necess,v In oraas
that the family NAV live. =" oiuer

The DIPLOMATIC BILL.-In the House, this
morning, Mr.. Z. b. Washburne, Chairman Of
the Committee on Appropriations, reported the
bill making appropriations for the Consular
and Diplomatic expenses of the Government
for the year ending June 50, 1870; which was
read tw1ce and referred to the Committee Of the
Whole and made the special order for to-mor
row. after the morning hour.
The bill is the same as that passed at the Ia
session, with an amendment providing that ne
Consul Vice Consul, or Consular Agent in the
dominion of Canada shall be allowed tonnage
fees for any services actual or constructive,
rendered any vessel owned and registered in
the United States that may touch at a Canadian
port.
The bill approp-:ates sIO6,OOO less than was
appropriated for the same service last year. Ii
contains the usual appropriation tor the Por-
tugese mission, but the act OF 1S66, preventing
Minister Harvey from drawing anv more
money, is still in force. The mission TO Rome
seems 10 have been permanently abolished, as
the bill contains nc provision except tor a Con-
suiate at that place.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

The New York money market shows a some.
what easier tone, though still decidedly strin-
gent. Wall street borrowers are paying very
generally per cent. in gold, but rates beyond
that are quite exceptional. The market would
seem TO have certainly passed the climax Z, of
Its crisis. The quarterly statement being
passed, and the money called in for the pay
ment of dividends being now in process of dis.
tribution, there is good reason for expecting
that, this week. the banks will be IN q some.
