The National Ffnances.

The condition of the national finances
is subject especially gratifying to all our
citizens. Under republican management
the national debt is in process Of rapid
extinction. while the resources of the na-
ion continue steadily to enlarge. The
analysis of the debt statement for July.
The first month in the new fiscal year, pre-
sents a very pleasing exhibit.
The reduction of the debt for that
month is nearly fourteen million dollars.
the largest reduction ever made in July,
and nearly four millions more than the
reduction in July 1881. This reduction
is attributable to large increase of re-
'-eipts from customs compared with last
year. and to a reduction in the interest
charge. Compared with July of last year,
he month just closed shows an increase
in receipts of over three million dollars.
the greater part of this increase arising
from customs. The receipts from internal
revenue fell off only few thousand dol
lars. The following table shows the re-
rcipts for July compared with the cores
ponding month of last year
CUSTOMS, sl7l4I.'ss sls."5o.677
Miscellaneous, 4 10 SO 5,6Io.s6,
Total, e3a 6s2 40 &H,sza,669
The ordinary expenditures were less
than twenty millions for July. and about
d, half-million less than for July. 1881.
In regard to the debt and the condition
of the Treasury the following facts are in
teresting: The loan Of July and August.
1861, has disappeared from the debt state
ment. This was the first loan authorized
by the government on account ofrebellion.
The amount authorized to be issued was
$3.50. 900. 900. but the amount actually is
sued was SlS9, 900, 300. The loan of 1868,
which is now being called for redemption,
amounted in the aggregate to $4,000
900. This amount has been reduced to
less than S4s. OOO, 900, and of this S3l, 0O0.-
900 are called, a call for Sl5.O0O.00
having matured on the lst inst.
This loan will be entirely redeemed by
December LIST. The available cash bal
ance is nearly Sl39. $780, 900 decrease of
about 1000. 900 compared with July lst.
The standard silver dollars in the Treas
ury now number nearly $50 ,00O. 600 a.
gainst which there is outstanding silver
certificates amounting to s54.75S. 900,
thus showing that the Treasury is absolute
owner of over $34, 900, 600 of silver dol
lars now on hand. Compared with July
1st this is an increase of nearly 81 500. 900.
In gold coin and gold bullion there has
been decrease of $780, 900 during the
MONTH Other items of the treasurer's

The express train on the Eastern Railroad
due in Boston at $50 this evening met with
an accident soon after leaving Hampton. n

If machinery remained attached to the en-
CINE, and revolving rapidly one end struck
the fre-box and knocked a big hole in the
latter. The steam circulating between the
two shells of the box escaped, and the train
was enveloped in q cloud Of vapor. The
speed was reduced and the train brought to a
stsniistill. delav Of nearly two hours WAS
occasioned in the arrival of the train here,
and during the time stop was put to all

centric broken nearly in the centre there
would have been danger of the end striking
