UPoN the expiration OF the ten days io1
which the President appointed Mr.. Ramsey,
secretary Of war, to act as secretary of the
navy, that gentleman was 1eappointed Tor ten
days further; but Mr.. Mcclellan, chief war
rant clerk Of the treasury department, refused
10 honor several acquisitions for money
made upon him by Mr.. Ramsey, being OF the
opinion that Mr.. Ramsey could not legally
serve as secretary OF the navy for more toan
ten days. At cabinet meeting the conclu-
sion was reached that the intent of the law was
simply TO relieve the President from an i'm
mediate embarrassment occasioned by sud len
vacancy in the cabinet, and that the authority
to appoint or assign another member of the
cabinet to perform the additional duties for
ten days did not extend beyond the one sp-
pointment, its object being simply to tide over
the interim until a regular appointment could
be made to fill the vacancy.

The Internal Revenue.

Internal Revenue Commissioner Green B. Raum has submitted to the secretary of the treasury his annual report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1881. The receipts of internal revenue for the fiscal year 1879 was $113, 449,- 621.33; for 1880, $123, ,981, ,91610; for 1881, $135 229, ,912.30, and the receipts for the first four months of the present fiscal year have been $50, ,876, 97O II, being $7, 061, ,7228 in cess of the receipts for the corresponding months of the last fiscal year. The commits sioner says: (" If this increase should be main tained during the remaining eight months of the fiscal year, the receipts for 1882 will be fully $157, 900, 000.' The total amount of col lections from tobacco was $42, 854, 991.3 .31. Gen eral Raum says that whenever the wants of the government. will allow reduction of internal o eOnDa his bepe epn4n taxes a' to sed 69 p it's, malt liquors, tobacco and it's products, and to special taxes on manufacturers and dealers in these articles, and to fix the taxes at such rates as will yield the amount of revenue necessary to be raised from these sources. He recommends additional legisa ton for the protection of the lives and persons of officers of the United States from the assaults of those who resist their authority. He is of opinion that there should be a law for the trial and punishment in the courts of the Unitel States of persons who kill, or make assaults with intent to kill, such officers while in tho performance of their lawful duties The sub ject of pensioning the widows and orphans of officers of the revenue service who have been killed is discussed. General Raum shows that the attempt for the past five years to suppress illicit distiIling has resulted in the killing of twenty-eight and the wounding of sixty-four officers and employees, and suggests the pro priety of legislation authorizing suitable pen sions to be awarded to the widows and de- pendent families of those killed, and directing proper provisions to be made for those wounded or disabled ill the service.
 General Raum makes various recommends tions concerning the appointment of employees. He recommends term of office of four years for subordinate officers, clerks and employees :; all applicants for appointment to be well recommended as to character and to stand proper examination as to attachments, their ap pointments at first to be temporary.

A climate not necessarily unhealthy often proves 80 to those unaccustomed to it. The accllmatlng process seems unusually slow in some constitutions. There is, however, a medicinal means of acclimating 1t of which residents and sojourners in unaccustomed or malarious climates have not been slow to avail themselves. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is medicinal safeguard and acclimating tonic of standard reputation, which travellers, emi- grants, tourists, mariners and others whose tastes and pursuits entail exposure, subjection to changes of temperature, unusual or un- wholesome diet or water, and the fatigue at- tendant upon long journeys by land or sea, concur in pronouncing it reliable, agreeable and safe. As remedy for disorders of the liver, stomach and bowels, very prevalent in malarious regions and the tropics, as a pre- ventive of fever and ague, rheumatism and kidney troubles, and as a restorative of vigor, 1t is also held in the highest estimation.
