The opinion prevails among the
Senators that the San Domingo pur-
chase will not DO brought up until
after tho adjournment of Congress,
and that an extra executive session
of the Senate viii be called by the
President to act on the treaty. It is
generally agreed that the annexa-
tion can be fully completed without
the consent Of tho House except in
voting the purchase money. 1t does
not appear that there has been any
change on the question in either
House. The opponents to the an
nexation profess to see no reason for
changing their views since The re-
ception Of full information respect
ing the Island furnished by news
paper correspondent. While the
friends Of San Domingo are oonfirm-
cd in their opinion BY the facts thus
given both parties are already pre-.
pairing their arguments, and the
prospects are that the contest over
the report of the Committee will be
long and exciting. Prominent Sen
ators who have heretofore exhibited
no participation on either side say
that it viii be impossible to get Q
two-thirds vote to ratify the treaty
OF Incarceration, whatever the report
of the Commissioners may DO, and
that the Senators who will oppose
the treaty have made up their minds
already and will base their opposi
ton on the ground Of the inexpe
diency Of annexing more contiguous
| tropical territory.

Veteran Pensioners.

Both houses Of Congress has passed
q law giving pensions to all the sur
vivors drafted or enlisted
men-of the war OF 1s12.14. The
Commissioner OF Pensions will soon
furnish the proper blanks.
In the meantime while we con.
graduate these veterans on securing
from q Republican Congress this
just recognition, let us implore them
to cntrust their claims to none hut
competent and honest agents. The
Bill as passed, provides for Pensions
to the surviving officers and enlisted
and drafted men, including militia
and volunteers, whoserved sixty days
in the army and navy in the lsevo
lutionary War, or In thu War o.
1912, and were honorably discharged

Bonds.

OF the $1,22O,O03,35O bonds Of
tho U. S., now outstanding 1924
600, 900 are held in Europe, and of
the entire debt OF the U. s., 81
0s5, OO0, 900 it is estimated is held in
the United States, of which the Ma
tional Banks and the Insurance Com.
panies have $685., 900, 600.
These facts, says the N. Y. Bulle-
tin, are of some interest in prospect
Of the introduction of tho govern
ment loan and it would seem that
there are circumstances connected
with the distribution Of tho debt
which will favor tho success of tho
experiment. The bonds on which
tho Treasury has the first option Of
calling in arc the tive-twenties,
known as "sixty-two's." OF
that issue about 1850, O00,-
900 are held in Europe; and
tho question arises, how is the
Treasury to be enabled to start the
movement abroad by calling in
more or loss of those bonds? The
Nationalbanks have nearly $3.50, O0O,-
00O. of six per cent. bonds deposited
against circulation and from cur.
rant indications, there can be little
doubt they will subscribe very
freely tor the new bonds, as they
thereby secure non-taXable security
and obviate further agitation in
favor of either reducing tho inter.
est on their bonds or subjecting
Thorn to an onerous taxation. The
prestige thus given to tho move.
ment will render it comparatively
safe tor the Secretary to employ q
few millions of his large coin bal.
ance in the redemption Of the sixty.
twos, which would make natural
opening for the new tives. /.
seems quito likely that in this way
the bonds at the higher ratio of IN
tercst may DO carly negotiated.

What a Republican Admins
tration has Done for the
People in One Year.

The annual report Of General Spin
ner, the Treasur of the United States
| shows what Grants Administration
has done. We present our reader
some interesting facts Us follows;
The report shows shat the army
has cost SIS, 060, 142.46 less in 1s7'
than it cost in 1869.
It shows that the Internal Rev
cnue Department has cost 81 ,6S1 ,405
less in 1870 than in 1869.
1t shows that the Treasury De
partment has cost 81, 018, 10000 les
in 1870 than in 1869.
ltsvows that the Interior Depart
ment has cost So, 50,6Sl.66 less il
1870 than in 1869.
1t shows that $532,3SO less ha,
beon paid in quarterly salaries il
1870 than in 1869.
The total saving Of the year in
these divisions of the expenditures
Of the Government is $27 ,l59, OS9..
80.
On tho other hand tho Navy De-
partment has cost $3.50, $50 so more
in 1870 than in 1869 the Treasury
Interior $470. 665.08 moro; foreign
intercoui SO, 396, 253.O4 more, and
customs, S914.G05.17 more--making
81, 342, 9S2.70 of increased expense to
be deducted from the above savings,
leaving 1924, sl6,O99.20 as the net
reduction of the expenditures Of the
Government, other than in the pay
ment of the National debt.
Towards tho reduction of the
public debt, Treasurer Spinner's
statement shows that Sl35, $50, 0G5. 10
more was paid in 1870 than in 1860.
The receipts from customs were
$l3,502,371.W greater. and the
receipts from miscellaneous sources
were "a, OBJ, 37I,4O more.
The comparison, or rather the
contrast, between the last two fiscal
years stands as follows:
Increased receipts, $40, 263,33l
decreased expenditures, $27, 129, OS9,
total, s75,322,4O2. Decreased re-
ceipts, 81, 345, 389; increased expen.
ditures, S2,342, 9S2; total S6,G6S 1882,
being q clear gain by larger collec
tons and reduced expenditures, of
Sos, 734, 02O.
General Spinner, in commenting
on these facts, says:
"In order to give q clearer Wow to
such persons as are not in tho habit
of thinking Of money by millions OF
dollars, of the great saving that has
been made to the Treasury of the
United States in the fiscal year, over
the one preceding it, tho statement
is here made, that after deducting
Sundays and four legal Holt
days from the 365 days-leaving 300
executive days in the years saving
of SOS, 734.02 was made; that tho
average saving on the working days
OF the fiscal year, that closed with
June 3Oth, 1870, over those OF the
year proceeding, was over 1924 ,240
per day, being over S9,26S per hour,
over Sl54 per minute, being more
than equal to the extra dropping OF
$3.50 into the Golfers Of the Treasury
every second OF tho time. These
facts sufficiently explain how the
Administration, by thorough action
md an economical course, was en-
lblod to purchase so large an amount
If the stocks OF the United States for
ho sinking funds"
