ADJOURNMENT OF THE LEGISLA-
TURE.

The legislature finally adjourned yester-
day, after session of fifty-seven days. In
1871 the session was but fifty-fve days,
but the sessions of ~ and '73 were each
fifty eight days in length. The amount
of business despatched has been large,
while the quantity of talking done has
been small. Few speeches have been
made and little debate INDUCED in, but
business has been we'll attended to. The
able members, of which there was Il fair
proportion, distinguished themselves more
by the good sense which they displayed
than by much talking. There have been
many important measures acted upon, but
none have created special excitement.
Even the question Of capital punishment
made but little stir, and railroad matters
were disposed of as coolly as cheese fac
tory bills. Economy in regard TO ex-
penditures prevailed, and disposition
to cautious and conservative action. Both
branches were fortunate in their presiding
officers, who were promptly and almost
constantly in their places, and displayed
skill and ability in the discharge of their
duties.
Among the most important measures
passed is the taxing of railroads and in
surance business. Savings banks are adj
ditionalIy taxed, capital punishment re-
mains as before, very little change has
been made in the school laws, the insane
hospital and its inmates are brought
under more stringent provisions, and an
appropriation is made for the Industrial
School for Girls. The clashing of railroad
interests has not been very fierce. On the
whole the session has been pleasant, and
we hope its acts may prove prostable and
satisfactory to the State at large. The
number of acts passed is 342, of resolves
1lS. Last year there were 277 acts and
100 resolves passed.

TEMPERANCE IN NEJV YORK.

One of the principal topics of conversation
in this city is that of temperance. 1t is dis
cusscd with zest in the hotels, in the bar
rooms, and on the streets. Whether the
''womens movement" here will amount to
anything or not one thing is certain, and that
is that the agitation of the questions in the
present quiet way will help to increase the
ranks of the temperance army very material
ly. Among the temperance leaders all is ac-
tivity. The work is spreading, and though, in
the main, the movement has been so far con-
fined to two or three churches in this city, al
ready some of the leading divines have cx-
pressed desire to do something for the cause,
| and, in order to arrive at mutual understand
ing about the best course for the ministers to
pursue, have in view a conference during the
present week The leading lights of the Or
der of the Sons Of Temperance will meet for
deliberation at Carmel Chapel tonight.
What they propose TO do is not known. Some
of the liquor-dealers have organized a mutual
society for self-proteetion, but among ma
jority of them one opinion seems to exist and
that is the lack of any organized movement
by the women so far is plain indication that
the female portion of the community are not
willing to take hold of the "crusade" and
prosecute it to any great extent. Speaking of
the temperance movement out West, yester-
day merchant remark ed that he had received
a letter from his agent in Ohio, who stated
that business in some of the towns in that
State was almost entirely suspended on ac
count Of the existing crusade against the
liquor-sellers. In Newark and Mansfield,
Ohio, nearly all the population had gone to
preaching or to listen TO the preaching of tenn
perance. A. d. Fulton, Grand Scribe of the
Sons OF Temperance of western New York,
writes that he has organized thirty-three tenn
perance divisions within three months. DIR.
bio Lewis has promised to visit this city and
address meetings here and in Brooklyn next

BETTER FINANCIAL LOOK.

The statements of the public debt issued
from the treasury department for the last
two months are evidences of 4 gratifying
improvement in the finances of the gov
eminent. The receipts from revenue have
so increased that reduction Of the public
debt has been resumed. In January the
debt was reduced 81. 1S5, 2l1 in February
the reduction was $2,590,0F. With no
more financial panics finance and business
will soon be re-established on the old
basis.
Mr.. Roberts of New York replied on
Monday to the late speech of Mr.. Dawes
in relation to financial matters, taking Il
brighter view of them than Mr.. Dawes
did, who he seems to think drew the
picture too dark and in some particulars
enormously. From an abridgement OF
his speech we obtain the following facts.
Mr.. Roberts finds the condition OF the
country IN the first week of March very
different from its condition in the first
week of December. In the latter month
the Secretary of the Treasury transmitted
to the House letter asking for increased
taxation in view of possible deficit, and
fixed the estimates Of receipts for the fiscal
year at $271 100000. Mr. Roberts be-
lieves that to this estimate of receipts from
$4,000, 900 to $S,000,000 may be added
from internal revenue sources, and from
$4,000, 900 to ST.. 900, 900 from customs,
and that the proper estimate for the re-
cepts is S28s 100000. He showed the
fact that aside from the 81 900, 900 made
necessary by the Virginius excitement,
the expenditures for the portion of the
fiscal year which has now elapsed are less
than for the corresponding portion of last
year by S2,440.634. The statement for
February adds something in favor of this
year. Mr. Roberts thought that Mr. Dawes
had unfairly represented the condition of
the National Treasury. This was especially
true Of the statement which was the climax
of his speech that, while the expenditures
for last year were $3.50, 900 900, with a re-
duction of the public debt, the expendi-
lures for this year are S3l9.0o0.OO0, with
out reduction of the public debt This
1919, 1000, 900 embraced the sinking fund.-
and, had the proper deductions been made,
a decreasing scale of expenditures during
President Grants Administration, would
be shown. This scale is represented as
follows; 1869. 1922, 900, 900; 1870, 5000
100000; 1871. 1922 900, 900; 1872, $277,-
ooo,0ooi 1873, $4,000, 900; 1874, $780,
100000. Even adding the Spanish war
excitement expenditure Of 1000, 900, the
expenditures above the last year were
less than ~, 100000. Besides, there have
been taken from the Treasury this year
already $l2 100000 for the sinking fund,
and 81, O0O, 900 in gold for partial redemp-
ton of the loan of 1858. The financial
condition Of January and February lend
