such a condition has oxiHtod for now

3442,00.5, 7<>8, leaving a deficit, the first
since tho resumption of spoeio pny

1 nrr there was a decrease of $I0,70U, iyH,
in tho ordinary expenses of tho govern
ment as compared with the pro vioun
fiscal its income was still not sufiieieut
to provide for its daily necessities and
tho gold reserve in tho Treasury for

drawn upon to meet them. Hut this

February, 1800, tne sale netting #111,
I0i,2lo and Bwelling tho aggregato
of bonds Issued within threo yoars to
8202,81.1,400. For tlie lineal year end
ing Juno 8<>, 181)0, the revenues of tho

to $4(Mi, 470, 4u8, while its expenditures
woro S404,(578,do4. or an oxeess of ex

hi other words, tho total receipts f<jr

.Nor has this condition 'sinco im

.Not only are we without a surplus in
the Treasury, but with an increase in
(lie public debt, there has been a corres

lowest of any year sinco 1002, to $84,
in I Hiiii, or 1111 increase of $11,
r?0, H I. It m?v be urftod that even if
the revenue 01 tho government hud
been auflicient to meet all its ordinary
expenses during the past threo years,
the gold reserve would have still' been
msufiicient to meet the demands upon
it, but bo that as it may it is clearly
manifeat, without denying or confirm
ing the correctness of such a conclu
sion that tho debt would liavo boon
decreased in pt least tho amount of tho
deficiency, and business confidence im
measurably strengthened throughout
tho ronntry. ,
Congress should promptly correct tho
existing conditions. Ample revenues
must bo supplied not only for tho ordi
nary expenses of the government, but
for tho prompt imyment of liberal pen
sions and the liquidfttion of the princi
pal and interest of the public debt. In
raising revenues, duties should be bo
levied upon foreign products M to pre
