SATURDAY. MARCH 17. 1808.
The
Financial Attack on the Secretary
by the Comptiollcr.
The attention of the publ'c, especially those
who, through either tasto or business, have
given their time to the examination of finan
cial questions, has been directed for several
weeks to the attack being made by Mr. Free
man Clark, Comptroller of tie Treasury,
on the official veracity of the Hon. Hugh
McCullocii. It seems that Mr. Clark
accuses Mr. McCclloch of wilfully and per
sistently misrepresenting tbe assets at the
control of the Government, and supported
Lis charges with the following allegation,
' which we take from a morning contem
porary :
Amount in Treasury by Mr. McCnl-
loch'B statomt ui
.5110,013,031-24
Add compound Interest and leital
lenders retired in il.ircn
Add beven- birtl-.s kit with pre-
6,403,833-00
coeds ot Five-tw lines exceeding tbe
par of tho latter 1,233 .303 00

Adcftlie pitmium wluon Kind on uund
would bruis, it soJu 16,000.030 00
$106,789,101 21
Mr. Clabk, after presenting these tijrure.s, pro
ceeds to show ibat, according to his own eUt
mate, independent ol' the Secretary's return, this
amount reully on hand was $170,10G,3")0. He
iiiiidc up that amount in th:s manner:
' Amount In hands of Assistant Treasurer,

.Amount iu L.uu.,0 ift 000 003
Tctal S170,4iJ,8j3
In reply to this grave accusation, we And
that Mr. IIoopeb, of Massachusetts, ono of
the leading flnanciera in the Ilouse, took tha
floor, and explained, in a lew words, all of the
allegations of Mr. Clark. Tb.3 compound
interest and legal tender notes had been on
the 1st ot March retired, and could not,
therefore, be considered as part oi the avail
able funds of the Government.
Again, tiio 7-30s bought with C-2l)s were
also retired, and hence the profit on them
could not, with legality, be included. Iu his
calculations, Mr. McCclloch had already
included the money in the National Banks,
and the law would hardly allow its duplica
tion. As the cold which was owed by the
Government has not been sold, but is
still in the vaults cf the Treasury, its pre
mium could not be counted as a part of the
assets. Here then is the last of the wonders
discovered by Mr. Clark, and paraded by
him before the woild as proof either of gross
stupidity or dishonesty.
In addition, it may he said that Mr.
Clash's estimate of tbe available means in
the Sub-Treasury at New York is wrong.
The amount is subject to outstanding draits,
to deductions for cancelled securities counted
as cash, and temporary loans paid, but not yet
deducted, awaiting warrants to reimburse,
and other items, which really reduces the
amount available to the United States to
$32,773,312-23.
Thus ends the last of the Clark chargss,
and with them ends the difficulty, so far as
the Secretary-is concerned. But the Comp
troller cannot thus easily shift the responsi
bility, lie mad a distinct charge against
h's superior he made it openly and publicly.
He has failed to substantiate it, and has by his
officious interference, and his gross igno
rance, brought such disgrace upon him
self, as to make it apparent to all, that the
sooner the place ot Comptroller is filled by an
able and fa".thful man the better fjrthe nation.
He has been guilty of an act of the grossest
Insubordination and most shame fal financial
stupidity. He has attompted to wrong a
superior by an open charge, and has en
deavored to injure the public credit by
shaking the confidence felt in the head oi
our monetary system. Had he any fault to
find, or any imaginary error to correct, it
was bis duty to report the facts to the Secre
tary, his chief. If no notice was taken, then all
responsibility was shitted from his shoulders,
lie bad done bis duty. But to come before
the public iu an attack, as ho has, is a display
which totally unfits him for his post as Comp
troller. No chargo made by an inferior, and without
any substantiation, can shako the confidence
lelt by all classes in the financial ability and
personal probity of Uon. IIugh McCclloch.
His course has ever been that of wisdom and
honor, lie has been correct in his estimates
in the past, and we will trust him unqucs
tioningly In the future. A financier, a patriot,
arid a gentleman, his credit cannot be injured
by the insolence of his subordinates, or the
malicious slanders of bis personal loes. He
comes out after the attack with his talent
shining brighter and hit honor more evident
than before the assault of the Comptroller.
What a Day Way Diing- Forth.
Today is notable for a national as well as a
mysteriously promised deed, for the occur
rence o'f a certain, as well as the possibility
of -an anticipated event. On this, the 17th of
March, the Reciprocity treaty heretofore ex.
feting between the United States and the
Canadian Provinces terminates, as under the
original draltof the contract, eiiher of the
parties could nullify It on giving one year's
notice to the other. The United States, this
flay 1805, gave the required notice ; and as a
consequence, '.the treaty so falsely named Is
now a matter of history. Nor will any of our
readers who have been familiar with its prac
tical workings' regret its end. A more unjust
arrangement was never devised than that into
which the operation of the contract has gra
dually degenerated. Its name was a most
singular misnomer. By a littlo technical
evaclon tie true spirit of the instrument was
violated, while the verbal agreement remained
Intact. It Is not oar purpose to show how It
was that a discriminating tarifl was forced
upon American importations either by exces
sive freight or enormous clia- ge for storage.
Suffice it that the Government waj deprived
of millions of justly claimed revenue and
the Canadas enriched at the expense ol the
States. In accordance, therefore, with tin
demands of justice and Kelf-interest, tb Re
ciprocity treaty hns ceased. It would have
been well for our neighbors had they remem
bered the fable of the bag who killed the
gooso that laid the golden egg.
The consequence of this abrogation is, that
each nation charges what it denu proper
ar.d most exorbitant duties will bo tbe result'
So heavy, indeed, will be the new tariff, that a
considerable proportion of the gains ot the
trader will be swallowed up by the taxes.
The result is obvious. A gigantic system of
smuggling, which has already originated, will
be continued and enlarge!. It will eeaso
to be a desultory effort to hurry through
gcods with the Custom llouse inspection, but
will become an organized plan of importation.
Unless the two Governments speedily como to
a renewed understanding, much evil will re
sult, and much income will be lost.
The next question which will commence
to-day to agitate our people, will be the fishe
ries. The motion of Mr. Tike, of Maine, to
despatch a naval fleet to protect our fishermen
in ihcir rights, guaranteed by tha treaty of
1783, is but a rejoinder to the proclamation of
the Governor of Canada,orJcriug a'l Americans
to keep away from the fisheries alter to-day.
The belligerent character of the inhabitants
of the pine forests of Maine render such a
compliance ns the Governor expects ex
tremely improbable. Wc anticipate, as wo
have before stated, before a weak Is past
bearing of bloody engagements on the bor
ders. An immediate settlement, on an equi
table basis, would pievent any conflict and
save the effusion of blood. The contesting
Governments are responsible.
While, therefore, the Canadian public may
well fsel exercised over the . vast commercial
era upon which they have this day entsred,
they entertain, with or without cause, a dread
of a far greater danger in the shape of a
Fonian invasion. To-day is St. Patrick's,
the time selected for the iTuniau movement on
the Province, and ii any attack is contem
plated, now is the most likely time for it to bo
made. The enthusiasm which this day will
cause among the Irish will bo something
analogous to that which fired the ancient
Romans when they selected the birthday of
Castob and Pollux as the date of the Lake
Regulas Battle. Thcptesence of their national
saint will be suuicient to foreshadow vic
tory. The combination of all those events
have naturally had a depressing and an ex
citing effect on our neighbors over the border.
They have reached a climax oi alarm. Litticr
ty to-morrow the danger will bo past, and
they calmed, or else the telegraph will inform
us of the dreaded invasion having takon place.
The time is, under any circumstances,
fraught with great events. Truly, "Who can
tell what a day may bring forth?"
The compensation which the DuchieB are, to
pay to the Danish Government amounts for tbe
present year to i, cib,m3 tnaicrs, bjq ior ioji 10
ajas.zautnaicrs.
The Prusiau journals announce that anotlvr
historical memorial is about to disappear. The
tiimous windmill ot sans aouci, wnicn the great
FieJerick had respected, aud which his dee$ud-
ants Lud enclosed in the park at Potsdam as a
monument of their respect for legality, is about
to be pulled down by tbe Kind's order.
