Internal ReYenne Deficiencies.

The general misrepresentation concerning
the condition of the accounts of ex-collec-
tors of internal revenue, and the charge
that immense defalcations exist, has decided
Secretary Boutwell, to prepare and publish
a revised statement of the accounts to date.
This is nearly ready, and, compared with
the immense sums collected, the ,aefalca-
tons are very small. Under this head are
classed all deficiencies for which, in the
opinion of the department, no valid reason
has yet been rendered. OF the unadjusted
accounts the greater proportion are made
up OF unsolicited tax lists, which passed
into the hands of successors, and when
these accounts are closed it is expected
most of the deficiencies will disappear The
terms of most of the officers named closed
with the fiscal year ending June l, 1863,
only one being an appOintee of Grant. To
that time the total collections of internal
revenue, embracing period of seven years,
had been, in the States named. in round
numbers, as follows:
Ohio. los 600 900 Missouri S34 600 600
Illinois,. 10,00000G Indiana. 24o0O,090
While the defalcations were, in round num-
bers, as follows:
Illinois .......,.. 41,OO0 lndiana.......... 5000

Cor HIM IN A Box.-Possessing .some
singular infatuation, or intending a great
crime, one of the Jones family found his
level yesterday in the Criminal Court. a
case was formally called, when District At
torney Gutenberg called up some jurymen,
one answering to the name of Lewis Hart
man, and the oath was administered, when
the person was closely questioned as to who
he really was. He admitted that his name
is Jones, and that he usurped the name of
Hartman. Judge Abel read him lecture,
ending by fining him one hundred dollars
and giving him only ten days in the Parish
Prison. Mr.. Gutenberg then closed the
case by charging him with perjury. IfJones
is not in the jury box he is in closer one.

A SHrRTLEss ALGERINE.-Sleep that knits
up the raveled sleeve of care makes man
careless of worldly possessions. Mr.. Glazer,
one of the solid men of Algiers, in violence
to his better senses, made a trip to the
watering places Sunday, and feeling little
proud and self-reliant over his excursion,
took no one along to see that he did not
come to grief The consequence was that
while visiting Mr.. Orpheus, in chair, a
poor, lonely widow on the boat, having a
fond recollection for her dear first, inno-
Gently slipped the extra shirt into herblack
dress pocket, and would not have been de-
tected in the confscation had she not tried
to take the one off his back The effort
aroused the sleeper, who, in generous ft
requested the poor woman to wait minute
and he would assist her. This. kindness
surprised the eccentric lady, when she took
sudden departure, not forgetting to retain
the male garment. The Algerine called on
friend in Ocean Springs and borrowed
shirt to return home in.

not arrived, they, the three hundred, acting
as infantry, pay their own expenses. The
camp ground is only few rods from

the soldiers do not subsist on hard tack.

tiee Sunday, private r. c. Ably making the

On THE MOBILE RAILRoAD.-The accom-
mediation train, which left here at halfpast
two o'clock p. NJ. Saturday for the water
ing places, consisted of nine passenger
coaches, every seat filed, the firemen hav-
ing one car to themselves. 1t seemed as if
New Orleans had broken loose, letting its
citizens out for holiday. This throng had
but one voice, that of commentator for the
road and its excellent appointments. Those
who formerly felt prejudices toward the en-
terprise are to-day emphatic in their praises,
and so it will progress on each recurring
summer for those who visit the coast towns.
