TUESDAY EVENING. DEC. r., 1880.
The Treasury Report.

The report of the secretary of the
treasury is of such interest and value
that we publish it in full, as far as it
treats of the more important topics con-
sidered, and our readers will find, upon
reading it, that they are repaid. The
treasury report is always the annual
paper of most value to intelligent citi-
zens who are interested in the financial
conduct of the government, as all ought
to be and Mr.. Sherman treats mis- topics
with such clearness and force as to make
it really pleasure to read his report.
He has been a sensible secretary, and
consequently successful one. 1t re-
.quires no great degree OF intellect to
conduct properly the financial affairs of
the country or of an individual. Busi-
ness men are not necessarily nor generally
very intellectual men. 1t does not need
powerful intellect to understand the
simple rules of finance !; but it does seem
to need peculiar sort of common sense
which is wanting, perhaps, in the major
ity of people.
A marked illustration of this is
afforded by Mr.. Sherman's narration of
the fate of the silver dollars which Con-
gress would insist upon ordering to be
coined at the rate of two millions a
month. 1t ought to be i fact that the
majority of the congressional representa-
tives should have sufficient sense to un'
derstand the elementary principles OF
finance; but il is a demonstrated fact
that they don't; else surely they could
never have ordered the coinage of sill
YER dollar whose certain fate would take
it into the stOrehouse or the treasury and
which could not he kept in circulation tc
any extent. A child in financial knowl
edge would have known this but the
most of congressman know absolutely
nothing about what seems SO simple, in
its treatment by the secretary.
