Government Expenses.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.
The Navy Department Expenses
for the year ending June 1868, were
over thirty millions, while for the
last fiscal year they have reached
only twenty-three and half mill
ions. The expenses of the Treasury
Department increased nine millions,
while those of the Interior Depart
ment have gone up from twenty-eight
to thirty-six millions.
The above exhibit will be made in
the forthcoming official report OF the
Treasurer.
The warrant books of the Treasury
Department show that the expendi-
lures of the Government for the fiscal
year just ended were less than $685.
OOO, 600, as against 81 ,O7O, 900, 900 FOL
the year before, and were nearly al
low as those of 1852. The actual ex'
penses Of the military branch of the
War Department during the fiseal
year previous to the one ending june
3Oth last, were 1913, 900, OOO-while
for that year they were not quite
$50 500, 600. -Telegraphic.

Important to Heirs.

Under the Internal revenue law,
all property passing, by will or by
the intestate laws of any State, to
heirs of deceased persons, and all real
estate passing by gift, or in any man.
ner whatever, without adequate con-
sideration, from one person or cor
poration to another, is subject to q
tax at rate ranging from one to six
per cent; and the law makes it the
duty of the executor or administrator
to make out and render to the assist
ant assessor having supervision of
such business complete list Of all
legacies or distributive shares held
by him, before the same shall be
delivered or paid to the heirs; and of
any person succeeding to real estate
in any manner, as above stated, to
make return thereof to the assistant
assessor in the manner prescribed by
law. Any neglect on the part of a
successor to make the return will
subject the property to an increased
assessment, and himself to fine. 1t
is also important to officers purchas-
ing property belonging to the estate
of deceased person to see that the
heirs or persons of whom the pur-
chase is made have the collectors
receipt for the Government tax, rs
the Government has alein upon such
property for all taxes due.-Er.

Why The Public Debt
Decreases.

The internal revenue receipts fol
the six months just past, of this year,
are some eight millions of dollars in
excess of what they were in the cor
responding months of last year. The
custom receipts, for the same cores
ponding time, probably show as large
an excess in favor Of the present
Administration. The total revenues,
therefore, since the 4th of March, are
probably nearly sixteen millions in
excess of the amount for the similar
period of last year. This is equivalent
to an increase Of at least thirty mill
ions year over the revenue collec-
lions of last year. We are thus
enabled to see how our public debt =
decreasing. If no extrao-'s ~
penses are incr---.' the emu VI .'o
:, r,t ,,oc. vi Grants term OF Office
Will show total decrease of hum
dred millions, if not more. OF this
amount, thirty millions will be due
to the increased efficiency in the col
lection of the revenues, and the rest
to the retrenchment that has been,
that is being, and that will be, effect
ed in the Government expenditures.

BILLINGS.

three tenths taken from number
three, and so on through. Thus SHINE
five dollar notes are completed, leav'
ing the original number nine with 9
tenth gone from the left, as a tenth
note.
It will be seen that but tenth is
gone from each bill, and in a differ.
ent place on every one, and a little
ingenious FASTING makes the loss
imperceptible to ordinary observers.
It is certain that large numbers OF
these mutilated bills have been cir.
cuiated in this city, and our readers
will do well to look out for them.
The roughs who have carried out the
fraud were cunning in selecting the
denominations they did. Larger
bills would have been more closely
scrutinized, and smaller ones would
not have been so remunerative. A
similar thing was done by parties in
Williamsville, several years ago,
with fifty dollar notes of the Inter-
national bank of this city, but that
cheat was not SO cleverly managed
as this, and was soon detected. The
department will not redeem a bill
which bears evidence on it's face that
it has been tempered with, and we
advise our friends to scrutinize their
five dollar notes closely.-Er.

The New York Herald tells the
following tale out of the Democratic
school:-"The manner of conducting
the Democratic National Convention
held in the new wigwam on the 4th
of July, 1868, was a piece of the
shrewdest political strategy ever en-.
acted. The whole thing was got up
by the Tammany leaders for effect,
to exhibit the weakness of all aspir.
ing competitors for the Presidency
outside of New York, and to place in
contrast Herewith the magnanimity
Of the New Workers themselves,
whose delegation, after voting for
every candidate proposed, even sug-
costing Salmon p. Chase-7a sensation
dodge-permitted Horatio Seymour
to be "sprung" upon them, and then
yielded with protesting shrug
which intimated that it was none of
their doing. But the whole doing
was Tammany ruse, which will
soon, it is expected, bear its fruit.
In the next Democratic National
Convention Tammany will come
boldly forth with its nominee, and
he will be, as already announced by
Tammany sachem in the historic
Wigwam on the 4th of July last, J.
L. Hoffman. In 1872 the fight will
be between Grant and Hoffman; this
is certain and inevitable; and in the
meantime the opera dcate journals
may continue to play ten-pins with
their Presidential candidates, or so
long as the amusement is entertain
ing or profitable"

A very ingenious trick, by which
q gang Of swindlers are making mon
ey mutilating national bank notes OF
the denomination of five dollars, has
recently come to our notice. The
dodge consists Of making ten bills
out of nine, and is SO managed that
there is but one FASTING to each OF
the manufactured notes. The nine
whole bills are taken, and from the
right Of the first one tenth is sliced
of; from the right Of the second two
tenths; from the right of the third
three tenths, and so on to number
nine, from which nine tenths are
taken from theright, or whatamounts
to the same thing, one tenth from
the left. Number one is passed as II
is, with tenth gone from the right
the one tenth taken from number
one is pasted to the residue Of mum
Der two, from which two tenths had
been taken; these two tenths arr

Shallow Flowing.

Prof. Cock says: In some parts OF
New Jersey, where the agriculture is as
successful as in any part of the United
States, good farmers plow only from
three to FIVE inches deep for their best
crops, and by trial they have found that
deeper blowing, OF subsoiling, has di,
minished the yield of their staple pro-
ducts. Their subsoil is sufficiently open
for the air, water and roots to penetrate
it, and by shallow plowing the manures
are kept close to the surface where they
can produce their best effects.
This mode of plowing would be ruin
Gus to farmer on the real shale soil,
where neither air, water or roots can
sink lower than the plow loosens the
soil. So the treatment of sandy loan
needs to be entirely different of a stiff
clay. The geology of the soils and
rocks Is of fundamental Importance TO
farmers

Hoffman and the workinxmen

Hon. JOHN T. HOFFMAN, Democratic
Governor of New York, has written a
letter to the President of prominent
Trades Union, stating that he would
recommend in his message the passage
of laws favoring the rights of laboring
men, especially where they do not in
teriere with the rights of other citizens.
He thinks the eight-hour law should be
enforced; that there should be a more
effective apprentice law passed; that
the contract system for labor in prisons
should be abolished, and that Trades
Unions should be excepted from the
operations of the conspiracy act, unless
an overt act is proven.

THE DAKOTA WILD MAN.
A Mnrderous Frenchman Bccomei
n Child OF Nature.

Child Of Nature.
A wild man, who is being chased by
parties of hunters and hounds, lives in
the woods fifteen miles northwest of
Sioux City. The Sioux City Times says
of him:
This singular being is entirely COW
cred with seemingly heavy coat of
dark. col ored hair, and he is as agile as
a cat and as fleet as a deer. Old settlers
in the region where the wild man has
been seen, state that about ttwenty-three
years since Frenchman, with his wife
and three children, settled upon
q piece of land on the banks of the
Big Sioux. At that time the only
occupants of this section consisted OF
the Indians, who were the sole owners
of Dakota, seme half-breeds and few
French settlers, most Of whom took
squaws for their wives. 1t is related
that the Frenchman alluded to did not
live agreeably with his family, that his
affections were lavished upon the dusky
daughter of an Indian chief, that the
white wife learning of this, upbraided
her husband for she symptoms OF his
waning affections, and that one morn
ing friendly Indian visiting the claim
of the Frenchman, discovered the dead
bodies of the wife and childron lying
on the floor.
An examination revealed the fact that
the throat of the woman had been cut
from car to ear, and that the children
had been dubbed to death by blows on
the head with the stock of gun, or
some similar weapon. No clue to the
murderer was ever discovered.
The. Frenchman has. never been seen
in the country since. The supposition
now is that he committed triple mur-
der, that rejecting on the horror of his
crime he became insane, took to the
woods and resided there since, and that
the wild man that has lately been
seen and the French settler of
twenty-seven years since is one
and the same person. 1t is well known
that many years since the majority of
the indians who resided in the Big
Sioux Valley were, on account of the
scarcity of game, compelled to 60 fur
ther West, and as it is only within the
last two years that the section of coun-
try alluded to has become settled, it
was very possible for q man to live
there without being discovered, or any
person knowing his whereabouts.
The whole affair is wrapped mp in
such impenetrable mystery, that we re-
frain from comment or sarmise until we
can speak intelligently upon the sub
ject.
