But II this be- a difficulty, de ay only magni-
now prepared 10 undertake the orsoniz alton
and Management of the telegraph in con
nectioH with its other dutiss. Indeed,
believe that the Department itself can aid
materially in raising the money needed for the
purchase through post-ofhce savings banks, IL
Congress will authorize their establishment
The security Of the government being the best
that could be obtained, many dePositors would
give IL the preference over every other. By
paying four per cent. interest, vt the most, on
deposits, a large fund could Be readily accumu-
lated and invested. under the direction of the
Treasury Department; in the public securities.
The proceeds of these Investments could be
used to reimburSe the original purchase money
and Sll other expenditures for construction aud
repairs. To prove the feasibility cf this plan,
recur to the history of the British Office.
The total amount in hand tier ten years ope-
rations, and for which the British government
paws only ~ per cent. interest is f15, 4t3 92S
SIS, 145, Goa much larger sum than will be re.
quired for the purchase and thorough repair Of
all the telegraphic lines in the United States"
He therefore earnestly recommends the passage
by Congress of the laws necessary for the estab-
fishing of the postal telegraph and post Office
savings banks. In concluding bis report, he re-
news his recommendation for the repeal of the
Thanking privilege; asks for the passage of the
bill which failed last session, known as the pos
tai code, and recommends an increase Of sal
airy IN the case of the Assistant Postmasters
General, and the superintendent of foreign
mails and the money order system.

expenditures from these appropriations are con
siderabiy within the proportion applicable TO
tAe period which has elapsed since its com
sencement.
The estimates for the general expenses Of the
service for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1873,
amount 20 els, s25.5CI .02.
The subject OF the reduction of the personnel
Of the navy is considered by the Secretary.
Though IL Is sometimes alleged as matter of
complaint that there are hs NOR ofneets OF the
Tesared fOr the service, vet IL fact that not
outstanding the promotions 50 hardly earned
by many gallant officers during the late war,
notwithstanding the admiration which thew con.
aneTed and the high consideration which they
deserve at the hands Of a government which
ewes ITS preservation As much 70 them as to any
stAeI class OF servants or people, sun the whole
number Of active officers in the higher ranks Of
the navy Is considerably less now than it was
before the war.
Notwithstanding this condition, he recogns yes
the desiTability of reducing the military estab-
ir-bmeBts Of the country, OF every kind. to the
lowest point consistent with the dignity and
safety OF tho country and its important in;er-
ssts, and with that attitude Of good faith and
generosity which becomes a great government
and prosperous people toward its faithful and
Ne j. of opinion that there are some grades in
oar navy now established by law which NAV be-
safely and properly reduced OF dispensed with
m time OF peace. The grades of admiral and
wee admiral can be allowed % lapse with the
lives Of those vino now hold them The grade OF
commodore can be dispensed with.
He recommends that the term OF eadetship for
EsldshipInen be increased BY law from four
years 20 six, two Of wnicb. at least, shall be
spent at sea BY tIis means, the number OF
sfacerS annually entering the naval service will
be reduced BY One-thiTd. We may add to these
reductions by dropping the mates now employed
te mpOrary duty, except those who have pc
suliaT claims by reason Of war service or special
Stness. When these reductions are cOnsum-
mated, We will, besides reducing by one-thIrd
the number Of officers annually entering the SER
vice, have accomplished, since the 18th of July.

Of that date a reduction OF near three hundred
IN the number Of line officers now authorized BY
law with annual saving TO the public Treas
MY OF near half million of dollars.
False economy may seek to scatter our officers
and cripple our service, leaving interests uH-
protected on every sea, but wise and liberal
stat6smanship will alone avail to protect our
commerce, secure our foreign interests. and

REPORT OF THE CONTROLLER OF
THE CURRENCY.

The report OF Hon. II. r. Hulburd Controller
of the Currency, shows that 155 national banks
have been organized during the past year,
making the total number organized up to Octo-
Der list. Of this year, 1,sG6. One hun
dred and forty-five of these banks were Or
ganized under the act OF July II, 1870, providing
for the issue of S5i 900 900 of additional natl ona
bank circulation. The aggregate capital OF these
banks is S15, 900. The total amount of cur
rency issued under the act of July II, 1870, to
October 1, 1871, Is SO $780, some 500 900 900
OF which has been furnished to new banks, and
the remainder to existing banks which had not
received their full quota or which had increased
their capital to meet the growing demands Of
business
The number of banks organized in the South
Is small, as the banks In that section were not in
condition to take any considerable portion OF
the circulation. The Controller estimates that
all the Western and Northwestern States can be
SIS 900 for the Southern States when they
are in a condition to take it. He suggests the
propriety OF removing the restriction limiting
the amount Of circulation to any one bank at
$500 900. But one gold bank has been organized,
the First National Gold Bank of San Francisco;
but the success Of this institution has not been
30 nattering as TO induce the organization Of

states adhere to gold currency Is quite notable.

pursued, and 1t is beginning to be manifest that

The substitution Of q paper currency in Cali
fornia and the other gold producing states for
their pFesent hard money would probably set
free for the use Of the government and the whole
country some thirty or forty millions of gold,
and at the same time provide these communities
with q more economical, active and accommo-
dating circulating medium.
He recommends that provision be made for the
establishment Of national banks In California
and the other Pacific States upon iegal-tender
basis, and that the Law be 90 modified as to
enable them to cope successfully with other
banking institutions at present doing business In
those States.
He again calls the attention of Congress to the
very high rates Of taxation that are imposed on
national banks in most Of the States. 1t is as
serted by bank officers, and admitted to be true,
that local taxation Is so high in some Of the
States as TO make 1t imp )ssible to lend money at
legal rates without loss to the bank. IL Is prob
ably true that, In some instances, the object of
the legislature in imposing these burdens Is a
hostile one, intended TO drive national banks out
of existence, while in other cases, onerous taxes
are imposed under the impression that the banks
are making enormous profits, and can afford to
divide them with the State.
He expresses the opinion that the public good
would Justify some Limitation to the power OF the
