INTERESTING STATISTICS.

An interesting statistical table has
been prepared by the treasury depart
meut showing the financial aud econo-
mic transactions of the United States for
the four years ending March 1, 1881.
From it we learn that the total receipts
in the treasury have been. $1.192, 55l.-
l07 "a; total expenditures, 1890, 1885,
FOG %; total debt less cash in treasury.
March 1, 1881, S1,s79. 956.412 II; entire
decrease OF debt. $20s, 1924. $50 ~ avail
able cash, including resumption fund,
$3.50. 662 1922 20; gold in treasury $17S,-
O3s ,25s OF; silver in treasury, 1884, lOs.-
1926 0S. The total export OF live stock
is given at $47, so6. 331. beginning with
four million in 1877, and gradually in
creasing to we twenty and a half mil
lion in 1880. Exports of other food.
$1,427, 317, 1872. also a steady yearly in
crease from s269. 752, 800 March l, 1878.
to 1856. PA. Ill March 1, 1881. The ex-
ports of merchandise were immense,
showing a healthy growth every year. and
aggregating during the four years 49,
O4S, 1873, S08. Of course this includes
many products OF agriculture-pork and
other prepared meats. preparations OF
corn and other cereals, fruits, vegetables.
&C.. but. still, when the live stock and
other raw food articles only aggregated
together $40, 123, o33, less than one
half the aggregate of the merchandise, a
strong lesson is conveyed of the interde.
pendence between agriculture, manufac-
lures and commerce.. There was one
hundred and thirteen million dollars in
specie exported two hundred and forty
three million dollars imported The lm-
portations of merchandise were two
thousand millions. The despised and
condemned south seems to have been do
ing something more than numbering ne
groes. In 1867 she raised 4,485 ,42s
bales of cotton; in 1873, 4.811,265; in
1879, SOS, 531; in 1880, 5,761, 252, thus
showing an increase every year. and a
larger crop In 1880 than was ever before
raised. When it is considered that this
Is accomplished but a few years alter
her entire system of labor vas stricken
down, then revolutionized and alienated
by designing political adventures from
the owners of the soil, it is simply won
dertul. Nine hundred million pounds
of wosl were produced in the country
during the four years; seventeen thou
sand million bushels of wheat; fifty
eight thousand million bushels OF corn ;
ten and a half million tom of pigs-of
iron, and two hundred and forty-one
million tons of coal. Altogether it is
evident that somebody has been at work,
and that ''this" United States, to use a
republican grammar. cracker, is a won

suddenly came out Of the telegraph
Office. He gazed at the departing
train, now FIVE hundred yards

wallet stuffed with greenbacks fall
by the wayside. Wherever Sena-

any-it was securely staFed away
for safety.
Meantime the gap between the
train and the senator wiGened,
although the senator ran well; at
least he ran very we'll for the
senatorship. But he got left
yesterday. However that race was
in Wyoming, and not on his native
heath, Nevada.
When the senator was forced to
take the track for his course he

The English Walking Fast.

Yesterday we received pleasant
call from Dir. L. o. Cerson. superin-
tendent oi Messrs. LeinenWeber * Cos
Astoria boot and shoe factory. Dir.
CorsBn showed us a shoe which we
feel fully justified in saying has but
few If any equals on this coast. Ia is
called the English Walking Fast. The
shoe has several limitations in the
market, hui when COMPARED, this shoe
viii weigh as much as three of the
imitation, and is apparently no larger.
The last upon which this shoe was
made WAS manufactured expressly for
this factory. 81 OF the leather. both
sole and upper, IS imported, and 1t IS
a tive sole AM slip sh"-. liessrs.
Leinenweber * CO. have received
several large orders ir. these shoes
from the largest houses IN Portland
and have also supplied the leading
merchants uf Astoria with t'lis excel
lent stock. We are pleased g" see that
this enterprise Is meeting with the
success II SO richly deserves. Theprc-
prietors have been successful IN secur-
ing the best and most experienced
workmen ON the coast, while Mr.. Cor
son has for twenty-six years past been
employed as superintendent Of some Of
the largest factories in the United
States and thoroughly understands
his business.

A Common Council Often Read Of.

This IS the London Truths
version of an OLD story: 81 heard
rather a COOL story of common
council. \ park with lake has
been presented to a town where
this council holds sway. One of
the councillors moved that a hun
dred gondolas be ordered for the
frequenters Of the lake. Another
councillor AT once arose. He
said that he agreed with his honor
able colleague that gondolas were
a necessary adjunct TO lake, but
he thought to order at once one
hundred involved heavy expendi-
ture of municipal money, and that,
therefore, he would move that the
number he reduced to two, and
that they should leave the increase
to nature"

We were in error yesterday in
stating that Mrs. Harriet Kimball was
dead. Although at the age of seven
ty-four Mrs. Kimball, now Mrs.
Jewett, is still alive and well. Her
first husband was Mr.. Kimbail, whose
name was among those killed in the
massacre. She afterwards married
Mr.. Jewett, who died in Astoria few
years ago. She now resides at Skipa-
non.
