The report OF the secretary Of war, shows
that the army on July had been reduced
to 10000 men. The expenditures for the
year were about $40, 900 600, including near
ly 100000 for river and harbor improve
ment The estimate for military purposes
for the fiscal year ending June !, 1873, is
s32,4l5,472. The treasury has realized
thus far during tina present fiscal year S2l,-
766,403 from the sale of arms and other
sources. An estimate Of SO 900, 000 is made
for the settlement Of claims yet due the
states for calling troops into service. The
secretary says that it is with great embarrass-
ment that the appropriations made at the last
session can be so economical as to answer the
pressing requirements OF the service. He re.
commends that the extra lieutenants author
lied to serve as regimental quartermasters
be discontinued, as vacancies occur in those
grades, etiecting the ultimate reduction of so
lieutenants that the grade of quartermaster
sergeant be abolished, and also those of COM
pany artihcer and wagner, which will save
ll65 enlisted men to the service, at yearly
cost Of s4l2,740. The proceeds of the sales
Of clothing since June 30, 1870, to date
amount to Sl,S75,72S. The cost Of trans.
por,ation for the year was about 81 800 900.

the existence of an armed rebellion, of reg
uar organization aud great strength, in
parts of the southern states, aud to the neces-
sity Of using the armed force of the nation
TO put it down, aud bring its leaders to
speedy justice. Gen. Beknap closes with a
renewed recommendation for ire.proof build.

We learn from it that there are now 10
ships on the navy list. OF these 30 are sail.
ing vessels, 80 monitors, II are laid up for
repairs, while 10 are still on the stocks
Counting in the dispatch boats, hospital, store,

tual service 90 vessels, carrying Col guns,
aud six more are nearly ready Tor sea. OF
the monitors, but one is in commission, the
rest being laid up, mostly at League island.
Many Of the wooden ships which are laid
up were built Of unseasoned white oak, and
Mr.. Robson thinks it would be wasting
money to repair them. The five cruising
squadrons now in commission embrace 10
ships, carrying 445 guns. Mr.. Robson ex.
plains that be has increased the active force
on the stations "by putting out of commits

only lie inactive in harbor or were towed
slowly and at great expense from port to port,

UT The latest London papers received con-
tain a confirmation of the cable report that
Roman Catholic mission to the negroes of
this country is on the way hither, and give
full particulars as obtained from prominent
members Of the Catholic clergy, The idea is
not new one, having been brought out at a
meeting Of bishops in Baltimore four years
ago but the zeal of the churchmen in Amer
lea was restrained by the paucity Of priests.
the prior claims of the white population, aud
the lack Of pecuniary means. The sugges-
ton, therefore, cmanated from this country,
though the movement is wholly an English
one. -Four graduates Of Foreign Mission
College, the first who have left the institution.
accompanied by the Very Rev. Dr. Vaughan,
editor of the London TABLET and founder and
president of the college, have been despatch
ed from England. A religious order will be
established, with Baltimore as its heaequar-
tors, and branches in the southern States !;
aud in addition sisterhood will be formed to
cooperate in various ways with the priests,
The four missionaries are under VOWS to de.
vote their lives to the conversion of the ne.
gro race in North America, and DR.. Vaughan
prououuces the work "a mission of hope"
The intelligence creates some excitement
in theological and political circles The
freedmen number about five millions, and the
undertaking will bring great accessions to the
Roman Catholic church and, many think, to
the democratic party in this country, 1t is
likely to stir up the PrOtestauts to renewed
yigor
