to government clerk; "that must be un-

the subject, however. Said he: ''The pay of

There is no trouble at all in getting ward
politicians for these places; but it has been
the Presidents idea to get good business men.
Such men come here occasionally tempted by
the allurements of office, although they can
do much better in private life. For instance,
the U. S. Treasurer, Mr.. Jordan, has stand

Lecture,

The Rev. Madison c. Peters, formerly
pastor of the Presbyterian Church of
this city but more recently connected with
Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia, will
lecture on Thursday evening the 18th inst
at the opera house upon the subject "An
Evening with the Witty and Wise" Mr..
Peters will probably call out a large au-
dience. He established for himself repu-
tatisn more than local when resident of
thiscity, and always succeeded in crowding
his church. Judging from the accounts
given of his ministrations IN the "city of
brotherly love-" he has not been less sue
cessful there. He speaks vigorously and
advances his ideas with the utmost conf.
dence and holiness. The people of Ottawa
will be glad to hear him again and he un
doubtly will be not less pleased to meat
with them once more. The lecture which
Mr.. Peters purposes giving is spoken of
very highly by the Press of Philadelphia
and ether cities. Tickets can be procured
at SimOn's music store. Reserved seats,
so cents, first flo or 35cts and gallery 25cts.

WARRINGTON, July 9Th, 1856

NAbHlhGTON, JUN otn, iCCp.
Congress has been wrangling all week
over the money bills which provide for run
ming the Government during the next fiscal
year. The subject sounds like dry one,
but the congressional debates have not been
dull Appropriation bills always provoke
much disagreement and afford an opportun.
for discussing the comparative extravaganza
and economy of the two parties.
The Nations balance sheet has just been
drawn up again. The Governments book
keepers have footed up their account for the
fiscal year that came to an end on June 3d.
and the figures are even more satisfact
DRY than could have been expected The
receipts exceeded the expenditures by $780,
52S, $40 The receipts and expenditures for
the fiscal year compared with the last pre-
ceeding one, shows an increase of revenue Of
about $l2 $780, 900 and decrease in the ex-
penditures of about $l4,5OO,0OO Custom
receipts are some Sll 100000 better, inter
nal revenue 100000 and miscellaneous
some 100000. The ordinary expenses
are So, 400 900 less than last year. interest
is nearly Sl,OO0,0OO less and pensions are
IS, 600 0U0 more.
Yes, during TIE year just closed the Pen
sion Office issued 81 ,422 pension certificates,
larger number by 6,72l than ever were
issued in any previous year. And when it
is remembered that this immense work has
been performed with force of clerks less by
over 100 than for the three previous, there
seems to be sufficient reason for congratulate
ing the present Commissioner of Pensions,
Gen. Black upon retrenchment in his Office.
At recent Cabinet meeting the question
of how many telephones were in use at the
several executive departments Of the Govern.
ment in this city came up. The President
asked each Of his Secretaries how many in
the department over which he presided used
The Attorney General said two. Secretary
Lamar gave what he thought was his number
and so on around They made up about
uALO5etutI' Inc EtslutuI dSkeu
10 look into the matter, and export at the
next meeting. They did and Attorney Gen.
Garland was only one who had made cor.
rect return. The total was one hundred and
fifty. The average cost of each telephone
because the departments have number Of
special wires, is 500 year.
Thus for telephone service for the depart
ments in this city alone, the Government
pays nearly SIS, 900 year. This was thought
to be too high by the Cabinet officers, and
retrenchment in this line has begun. Fifteen
telephones have already been taken out Of
the Treasury department, leaving only one
on each floor.
The salaries of Government clerks comes
out of the Legislative, Executive and Judi
