GENERAL MERRTTTvS REPORT

The efficient services of General Merritt as
the administrative head of the New-Yorlx Gus
tom House come to an end tot day. and in another
column is published his final report to Secre-
tary Window. The figures given need no COM
mentary to show that the enormous business
Of this Office has been conducted with rare
economy, and that the prudent executive con-
troll of the Collector has made itself felt down
to the mnutest detail of management. The
revenues of the port for the fiscal year ending
June 30 reached grand total of about
4O,OOO,OO0; and besides the multiform
duties involved in the collection of this sum. a
variety of other labors devolvc upon the office,
with results that do not appear among its re-
ccipts. Nevertheless, every 800 deposited in
the Treasury has only cost the Govern
ment $l 80. Without comparing these
results with those of any previous adj
ministration of the Custom House, except
to say that no other Collector has ever
made so satisfactory showing, it is safe to
affirm that the business of the Port during the
past year has been transacted with signal honest
ty, industry and intelligence.
That practical reformation has been effected
in the customs service at this Port no one
familiar with the office as it is and as il has
been will presume to dispute. Judge Robert
son will assume control of a force well Gisci-
pinned and equipped for duty, and force
enlightened by an experimental knowledge
of the fact that the business of the Gov
eminent can be transacted successfully upon
the same principles which are recognized
as the foundations of success in the Or
binary business of human life; and it is
largely due to the sound common sense of
General Merritt, his stubborn honesty his
courage and his patience, that the force turned
over to his successor is what it is and as good
as it is. The retiring Collector will carry to
his new field of labor and of usefulness the
genuine esteem and the kindest wishes of the
merchants of this city, and he will be rcmem-
bered with gratitude for the impartial manner
i'll which he has discharged the delicate duties
which he owed at once to the commerce and
the government Of the country
