to the extent Of three millions. The present
belief at the department Is that not more

are daily increasing. and unless matters
grow unexpectedly worse, the usual figures
will be regained by the close of the month.
After that the reserve Will be called in again

and elections. have closed their weeks con-
ference at New York, on the policy of
adopting some new mode for eiecting Presi-

vor is that Of direct vote by the people,
the majority in each congressional district
to count one presidential vote. and the
State at large to cast two presidential votes,
which shall be counted for the person hay
ing the highest number Of votes in the
whole State. But why not let every mans
V)ts count one, and the majority Of voters
in the Union elect?

With the manifold rulings, opinions and
decisions by various Treasury official, on
the back pay appropriation, the public
mind must be in decidedly mixed condi-
ton on the subject. The latest "opinion"
is that given by the First Comptroller of
the Treasury, and j. adverse to that Of the
other accounting officers, to the effect that
the appropriation made for back pay and
salaries is not indefinite and permanent
within the meaning of the act regulating
uuexpendeI balances that it is only in
definite in amount and not in time and con-
sequently in two years unexpended balances
of salaries will revert to the Treasury.

Our readers will be pleased to hear again
ofthe advancement of Mr.. Henry NJ. Lamb, a
Montpelier boy, and well known here. He re-
signed his position as managing editor OF
upon the duties of Deputy Superin-
tendent of the Bank Department of the
State of New York. The term of Office is
three years and the salary $500 per an
mum. He was urged for the position by
Gov. Dix and many of the Republican State
officers. The appointment was made by
the Hon. D. c. Ellis, Superintendent of the
Department, and here is what the Albany
Ecening Journal says concerning it: Mr..
Lamb is widely known as journalist of con-
spicious ability, and gentleman intimately
acquainted with the public affairs of the
State. Formerly connected with the Utica
| Herald and other papers, he has, during the
| absence of Mr. Francis, been the editor of
the Troy Times, and has made a high repu-
tation for his industry, talents and integrity
In every qualification of capacity, aptitude
and honesty, he is well fitted for the position
to which he is appointed"
| The Burlington Free Press says: "We
hope Mr.. Lamb does not propose permanently
to retire from journalism, for his able and
trenchant pen ought not long to remain
idle"
