The foregoing table exhibits the
amount which It is estimated will be
annually realized from all sources of
the Internal Revenue. except stamps,
after the law of July, 1870 shall have
gone into full operation. The total
amount is $111,41S. Estimating the
additional receipts from stamps at
$15, 100000, there will be a total of
S126 AIS The table is arranged ac-
cording to the revenue value Of the
States, respectively. The total of this
estimate may be increased yearly In
proportion to the increase in popula-
ton, business and wealth, but prob
ably 1t viii bot exceed five per cent.
on the basis of this estimate. The
States of New York, Ohio, Illinois,
Pennsylvania and Kentucky will con-
tribute so, ,706, ,22O S8. or 63 per cent.
of the entire receipts, exclusive of
stamps.
The Commissioner gives a compare
tive statement, showing the receipts
from the several general sources of
revenue for the period of year and q
half. The total receipts from Sep.
tember, 1867. to February 28th 1863, { l8
months), were $241, ,820, ,765. and from
March 1st. 1869. to August 31st, 1870,
(18 months). were 1921, 1892, ,827. Ths
Commissioner adds: From this state
ment it will be seen that the gross re
ceipts from all the sources of Internal
Revenue for the first eighteen months
of the late administration are in
creased to the amount Of $49, ,672,-
061 09, and taking the same sources
of revenue, the excess during
the same period of compari
son in favor of the present ad-
ministration amounts to the sum of
S1O1. .S88. or I3.

The Decline in Gold.

The decline in gold and the cores
ponding downward tendency and con-
sequent depression in many branches OF
trade is by no means a discouraging
symptom; but quite the reversal
movement in the direction of finan-
cial soundness aud stobility. Con-
corning its cause, an eastern paper of
late date says:
1.-The fall in gold, or rather the appre-
citation in the value of greenbacks and
the credit of the Government, is owing
primarily to the wisdom of the Admin
istration aud Of Congress. Secretary
Boutwell, has wisely used his surplus of
gold to prevent a corner in that com
modify in Wall street. The gamblers
thus being beaten, the business of the
country is suffered to go OH lrninfiu-
enced and unlimidated by them. The
firm attitude of the Senate against in
haiion, and the numerous indications OF
q relief of public burdens, are assuring
to our mercantile aud industrial inter
ests, and the effect is beng felt A
more buovant tone is prevailing; and
the prospect is that the Spring trade
will open with cheering prospects, and
more close approximation to specie
basis. And when the country shall
find out that it can conduct business in
that way, the most iminent danger
to be encountered in a resumption
of specie payments by Banks and
the Government will have passed.
Silver is already making its appearance.
If the downward tendency of gold can
be maintained, as we have no doubt it
will be. we may reasonably hope to see
the currency Of the day give place to
hard coin. The confidence of the coun-
try in Congress and the President is
growing strongerevery hour.-Stability
il the first necessity Of prosperity finan.
cial freedom the second. The people
may rest assured that they will have the
former, and that all which can be wise
I. ~ done toward the latter will be.
