Snot?BTAnY BOTJTWELII ON THE Fi NANCE?.-Tho elaborate speeches in vin? dication of the flnauaial policy of the administration .recently delivered by Sec? retary Boutweil, itt. Ohio, urq more re? markable fdr what the. honorable Secre? tary omits to say than for anything that is contained in them. The points upon which Mr. B ont well lays greatest stresB, and which' constitute, in fact, the bur? den of his discoarse, are the elli ci o utcol? lection qi the revenue, the reduction of the pubjfio debt, end the consequent im? provement of the Government credit siijco President. Graut carno into ofliae. I? all tt>osu respects the exhibit which the Secretary make?, ia undoubtedly both creditable and gratifying, and needs not to borrow any fictitious lustro from u comparison, alike invidious and unjust, with the financial record of Mr. John son's administration."' Ilk reference to tho collection of the revenue, we have heretofore- shown by :i careful collation of figures that ibOr. difference between the results attained under the two admi . nietration8 is rather nominal- than real, and that where the advantage is in favor of the present administration, it is chief? ly beoaas? it. iias been enabled to reap the benefits of experience acquired and reforms instituted while Mr. Johnson was in office. So with respect to the re? duction of the national debt, according to Mr. BoutweU'aown figures, the reduc? tion siuoe General Grant came into of? fice-a period of two years and six -^months-has .beep. $251,310,699, or at i the rate of 8100,000,000 a year. During the three years and eleven months of Mr. Johnson's administration the amount of debt poid off1 wa? 8265,000,000, which was at the rate of 866,000,000 a year. But at the eame time it must be remem? bered that.during the earlier part, parti? cularly, of Mr. Johnson's term, the ex? penses of. the Government were much heavier than they haye been at any tim? since. A large floating debt was also ex? tinguished,'and although taxes have di? minished, the reduction in taxation hat by no'means kept .pace with; tho'roduo ti on is the current expenditures of th? Government, else whore would bav< been Mr. Bout well's surplus of &1Q?, 000,000 a year with Which to pay off tlx publie debt^'t.!';' So ? Commenting upon this portion of Mr Boutweila ;. remarks, the ;New Yorl Herald pointedly oaks: "After all, whs credit is due to any administration fo paying off tho debt, .when tho ino noy ii wrung from ,on oyor-truted people, an< the rovonoo cornea in like a flood at th rate of 8400,000,000' or so a year? Mi Boutweil oould not help' paying the. deb unless he had thrown the enormous sui plus that carno to his bands into the sea. It is the American people, after all, wh are entitled to the credit of having born with so much patience the enormou burden of taxation whioh made it eas for the administration to effect the -rc duotion in the debt of which Mr. Boni welt boasts. At the same time, the Se< rotary of the Treasury deserves full on dit for what he has done, and we repet? again, that in the Beveralrespects enumi rated, the present. administration ho done so .well .that it. needs not to bolstt np its reputation by unnecessary an unjust depreciation of ita predecesBOi But there are other points upon whic the country would have been pleased t hear from the honorable Secretary, an upon these he is significantly silent. T his various schemes for funding the dei at a lower rate of interest he makes litt! more than a passing allusion. More ct riously still, tho ' syndicate he does nc even once name*. Now, Mr. Bontwe knows perfectly well that this whole ayi dioate business has beec seriously a tacked, and that, to say the least of it, is very little understood. In many qua tere it is charged to be a job. It hi been openly asserted to be an arrang ment entered into in violation of tho e: press terms of the law which authorize the issue of the new bonds. It woo have bean a satisfaction to have had . clear explanation and vindication of tl course of the Tred?ary in this part?cula but not one word do we get. Then another matter-less importan perhaps, but not without its signifioai -and whioh has also created surpri aod been the subject of invidious cot moot at home and,abroad, has been tl substitution of a comparatively new ai unknown banking-house . for the ol trusted and world-known financial agen of the Government, the -Barings. Tl Seorotary might have told us. but do not, why this was done. Fi cally, and this is the most si a gul Of al!, ' upon the most important que tien conneoted with the financial poli of the Government and the fihanci future of the country, the Secretary Ba nothing, or nekt to nothing, at all. { '. the course of a three-column apeeob,t only reference made to a return to er. eie payments is the following: P' "It is tho desiro liud tile purpose the Republican'jpar ty, ol the Preside) and of those associated with bim In t administration' of t bo G o ve ta me ? t, r o what is practicable-to render tho puf of the oountry aa valuable as gold at 1 earliest moment, without violence or ; jury to the business interests of I oountry. The means must be left Oohgreis." 1 Buo the bead df the Treasury ofj United,Stated tba j officer to whom Ci gress is accustomed to.: look for sugg tions and recommendations ah referei to all financial, 'matters, no views of own to sobmif Opon this vital quoatic Are we to ip fer from bis silence that i Secretary, ie holding back bis rece mendatlonn with n viow' to embody thom io bin next annual report,, or. that he han found the problem 'too largo and too difficult to grapple' with, and ie, therefore, content to leave ?B soliition entirely '.o Congress?* In somo of his former reports, air. Bout weil advocated the policy of oontrnotion. He how re? fers to the plau of waiting until tho country has grown up to the present vo? lume ?f the ourrenoy, as one way of bringing tbe ourrenoy up to par. That would be like the fool in the fable wait? ing for tho river to run by in order to croea. We are afraid that the third plan, which appears to bo that of the Beere tary himself, viz: of waiting upon Con? gress, does not promise muoh better, if the Republican party has no policy, and the administration has no pclioy to re-i commend. Where all, it seems, are agreed in favor of the "end," it is a pity that some cannot Buggest tbo "means." [ Bcdtimore Sun. PASS-ABLE JOKE.-An editor in Harris? burg lost his pass on the railroad, and requested the officers of tho road to so? coro the arrest of auy man who should present iL Tho next day he found the pass in the pocket of his (Sunday trows ers, and proceeded to taken trip upon it. As soon as ho offered it to the conductor that faithful official knocked him on the bead with his lantern, called in three brakemen and the baggage-master, dragged him, desnito his frantic strug? gles, along the iloor into the baggage car, where a brakeman sat on him while the conductor battered him up a lot, so that he would keap quiet; and then they searched him to ascertain what other thefts he had been perpetrating. With tho excoption of a ticket to the circus, that mau had upon hie parson absolutely nothing'but railroad passes! He had parses over ali the main roads and branch lines, and feeders, and sidings, in the State of Pennsylvania. He had free tickets over ail the railroads in the East? ern, Southern, Middle and Western States, and in four of the Territories. He had a pass over a railroad from Yed do to Yokohama, and another from Cal? cutta to Bengal. He had a letter pro? mising him one on tho new road which is proposed in Terra Del Fuego, and a manuscript puff which he had writteu for a man who had assured him he should have a pass over the road which the man said he was about to run under the Medi? terranean from Africa to Italy, as soon as it was built. The conductor concluded that ho had caught tho greatest pass kleptomaniac that the world ever saw, But when he got back to Harrisburg tho affair was explained. And now, if there is any one editor iu the State who is com? pletely sick of "gentlemanly conduct? ors," that editor resides in the State capital.-Philadelphia Dispatch. < -' HORRIBLE CASH OF MURDEH ANO SUI? CIDE-JEALOUSY AND INFIDELITY.-On Saturday morning, Julius Steiuman, aged thirty, a lager beer shop-keeper in Now York, murdered his wife Julia, a native of Woisbuden, aged twenty-two, by crushing her head with n club and smoothing iron, and cutting her throat with a sheathrknife. He then 'hanged himself with a clothes-line at the shop door. The bodies of both were cold when discovered. Sho had been a sa? loon waiter, and .he became jealous on account of a habit she hud of going out at night and staying until a late boor, where, ho never knew. When found dead she was sitting at her supper table in the back room of tho euloon, dressed in black, trimmed with greeu velvet, her arms on the table and her head reclining on them, face downward. On the right side cf her hs::d was a ghastly wound, from which still oozed blood, clotting the thick folds of her black hair. lu the adjoining frout room hung the hus? band hg a singlo cord from a staple ia the front or street door, his fuco turned directly toward the dead body of his wife. He waa bare-footed, with a pair of old pants and a white shirt on, open at the neck. The coroner took charge of tho premises. 5jA few days ngo, the news from Cuba seemed to warrant tho supposition that the Spaniards were quelling the revolu? tion in that island. A late letter from Havana, however, puts a different aspect upon the face of affairs. Count Valma seda, tho letter says, is maturing his ?rand soborno to finish the revolution this winter, and is moving from piuco to place to inspect things in person. Sevo ral largo detachments of the patriot forces are in the field in the cont ral add Eastern departments, in tho Margarita Mountains, and in many oases they have the Spaniards nt a disadvantage. OD the whole, there is now no good reason to believe that tho. Cu bann are in the oritical condition which the Spanish agents in Havana and this country would huve the world to believe. ?
