The totai ordinary expenditures Of the
government during the fiscal year ended
June 80, 1875, were $274. .623. .392. The
expenditures, exclusive OF the public
debt, were sl7l, ,429, ,s4s, as against sl53,-
20l 1856 for the yearended June 80, 1872,
showing which lily comports with the
proud boast Of the Massachusetts, Re-
psblicans, that the administration has
constantly reduced expenditures since it
came into power. The army is no larger
nov than IL was in 1872, and the military
exI -, ,theefore should be no
langer. The extraordinary rsms which
have been spent ON the navy sr<asieas
times during the last three years, IL we'll
expended, should preclude the necessity
of anything more than an ordinary ap-
preparation for the ensuing fiscal year.
The Indian service, with new brooms in
the Interior Department and Indian Blu
reau, ought 70 he more satisfactorily per-
forncd during the coming year for a less
sum than it has cost in any Of the recent
years Of loose management. The amount
required for pesions has reached its maxi
mum, and each year hereafter will suffer
& sensible reduction with the death Of PEN
stoned veterans Of the late war. Expen.
ditures for miscellaneous purposes have
been made with so latish hand for the
past three yesrs-public buildings have
been erected in numbers far beyond their
actual necessities, and in utter disregard
OF cost-that economy in this regard can
be instituted without the slightest diff
Guilty. The reduction In the cost OF
maintaining custom houses and custom
heuse officials, and in that Of collecting
the internal revenue, will also help to
confne the miscellaneous expenditures
TO less sum than they reached In the
years ended June 30, 1872.
As there is no occasion now for larger
expenditures for any purpose than we're
made in the fiscal year ended june 30,
1872, and rs there are many items in
which reductions can be effected, the
Secretary of the Treasury, To present a
table OF estimstes which can stand criti-
cism, must not ask for more than one
hundred and fifty million dollars, exelu-
siye Of interest ON the public debt, with
which To carry on the government for
the ensuing fiscal year. This, with one
hundred million dollars for debt charges,
would bring the total sum asked to two
hundred and fifty million dollars, which
is certainly as much as is needed.

rHE LITTLE OLD AAN IN. THE
FOREST.
by HEzEKIAH BurTERwoRTH.

ss -. 49,.
The New Years story | am about to
tell is well known to German children,
all of whom go tripping through fairy
land in the golden days of childhood.
1t was written by a good German baron,
Frederic de la Motto Fouque, who wrote
the beautiful fsiry-st)ry "Undine,"
about which all of our readers have heard.
II does not appear, however, in the pop
ular translations Of the works Of the de-
ligbtfll old baron. 1t is quite a romance
in the original, but we have reduced it
TO very brief and simple story.
The nobleman who wrote it, and who
loves good people and children almost as
much as Hans Christian Andersen loved
them, declares thu this is a story that
ought to be teld. He does not say why !;
he leaves his readers, young and old, to
guess that by their own fresides. So,
you, see the story is something Of a rid
dle-one must live in particular way
to find it out.
Berthold was a German merchant. lie
travelled much from city to city. In
Germany there are long, dark forests,
through which he often journeyed.s
One evening he became bewildered in
one of these forests. He was riding on
horseback, and just as the far sunset was
flaming over the tall tops Of the trees
above him, he was startled to find he
had ridden out Of his way. lie carried
great treasure in his saddle bags-jewels,
ready money ard bills of exchange. In
the reccsses Of the forest there were rob
bers.
As he was proceeding along a lone
deiile, after nightfall, he espied a man
walking in the foot-path before him. He
cried to him, saying;
"Who are you ?"
am collier. live with my fam
lily apart from the world, in the forest"
"Can you give a stranger who has lost
his way nights lodgingT
81 have no right TO refuss hospitality
to stranger. In God's name you are
welcome"
Berthold followed the man till they
came to little cottage. The good wife
met them at the door with lamp, and
happy famil1 sf-ehildren greeted the
collier's return.
hs'evening passed pleasantly. The
merchant told stories Of his journeys, and
soon felt at home among the children
gathered lovingly around him.
At last IL was proposed that they
should sing. The sweet voices of the
children were just Joining in a merry
roundelsy when a sudden and loud
knocking was heard at the door. The
children stopped singing, and the collier
said firmly In the name of God, come
inw
Upon this, the door slowly opened, and
little old man, Of gentle appearance and
manners, came stealing in, greeting the
family oourteously, and taking the low.
