Cbutain purlin, who a'and ever wa'Ciiiul ot every opporlviul'v to cast a uu-picion on tlic national credit, have, within a few days, bren taking exception at the failure of the Treasury Department to make public the condition of the debt on the 1st of August. Tbc thunder hi been Ukcn away from such malcontents by the publication of the statement and a most grati fying statement it is. Although the war hua been terminated but fift?rn monthB.and although the departments have hardly yet had time to HGttln up their accounts, and bo enabled to flu. misstheir extra hatuR yot .he debt has already commenced to diminiBh. Just one year u;,'o it had reached its maximum, standing at $2,7C7.256,276'8G. That wai its flood tide, ana now It has commenced to ebb; and we anti cipate that it will flow out with ever increasing rapidity, until it once more sinks to the lovol which it hold before tho war. Within one year it has decreased $124,153,93.'. The tailing off during the first year of one hundred and twentv-four millions of dollars is no small matter. Why, at that rate, and making no allowance tor the increase of speed which will naturally foUow the gradual reduction, we will have it all extinguiehed in twenty-one years. Let us look at the various reduciions in certain departments of th currency aud bonds. Toe Brbt noticeable fact is, that although the debt nominally stands at $2,033,000,000, yet of that $')9,00(),000 are non-interest oourluj; henco the sum on wniub interest has to be paid is really but $2.18),10!,0J. Tho reduction ot the currency is steadily being carried out, as last as it can be accom plished without the embarasuient which won I naturally come lrom a too hasty recall of th-i notes in circulation.

Tho compound-interest notes, those greatest drains on our treasury, are ulno being got rid of as fast as possible. The statement of the rateot reduction shows: May 1 107,012,141 Juue 1 - 162 uUHU August 1 150,012,110 Thus eleven millions of the most exacting of our bonds h ive been quietly liquidated within a quarter. Of all possible forms of obligation which a Government can plac itself un ier, this is the most harassing. By a continual process, it grows heavier and heavier by its own weight. Like the old man of the sea, the more he strug gles to bear him up, the most onerous becomes his labor. We therefore hail with peculiar satisfaction any reduction in this particular form. The difficulty ot getting hold of the notes is great. A vast proportion of them are securely locked up as securities in banks, where, without yielding any good or incurring to their owner any risk, they act as a drain on the Treasury. Under the Funding law. as finally passed, banks are forbidden to keep these notes as deposits. Hence they will shortly be dragged from their resting places, and when once put iu circulation will be absorbed by the Government with the utinotst rapidity. The temporary loan has, within the month, been decreased $12,832,383. The gradual transmutation of the 7'30s into the 5.20s is testified to, the data fur the quarter being: Period. 7-30. Coin debt.

Since the last monthly state ment tbe remaining certificates of indebtedness have all been absorbed. In July they stood at $43,025; but they now cease to act as witnesses of indebtedness to the people of the land. They are dead, with tbe "continental notes," among the currency ot the past. In the brief examination we have made, it will be seen that Secretary McCullocu is quietly, and without ostentation, cancelling our debt with as much rapidity as discretion and our finances will allow. The Secretary has, so far, shown himself a most able financier, and as day by day exhibits bis action iu a new light, he is continually securing the confl lenca of our business community, and of the public at largo. Dr. Dostta-One ol the Victims ot tb? Rebel Massacre. Db. A. P. Dobtik, one of tne victims of the late Rebel massacre in New Orleans, after llngerl air lor several days, died, as the telegraph Informs ns, on the evening of the 5th instant. As the Rebel sympathizing sheets of the North have attempted to blacken the reputation ot this mur dered Union man, we will give a few items of his life, from which it will be seen why he is so obnoxious to disunionists generally. Those who knew him personally speak of htm as a man of unimpeachable integrity and honor. At the outbreak of tbe Rebellion he was in the practice of a luoratlve profession a9 a dentist in New Orleans, and had a large circle of personal acquaintances and friends. Ho avowed himself a Union man, and this, too, at a tlp when Union mea were the ob)eas ot bitter and violent persecution, and frequently of secret assassina tion. After the war broke ou the Rjbel Geiiv.nl Twiggs issued an order requiring all Upion citizens to lave tho city, and offering them passes to go North. Many flpd clandestinely to aave their property from confiscation, and tbe ji- , selves from violence; but Donne weiu toTwtuas' headquarters, boldly avowed himself an enemy ; to tbe Rebel cause, and demanded his pass tj leave. It was given, but before he had gotten out of the State a mob gathered around tlie y alu with a rope, ready to hang him. He escaped tin one h tho lntTposition of prrs-vixl t'tveids. lie went fo Chlcafo, an! rrrained there until General Butler captured New Orleans. He ih 'n rcturn"d, and imraed'atcl took a ni03t active part ou the side of the Uuion. In the Muter of 1832-j h? orjant?3 a Union Leaeuo, a secret association, ol wnieh he was the head. It was r-markably successful, and the commanding General, on manv oecasiins. acknowledged blmli' srreatly indebted to hlin ami his organization lor implant services. Af this time the tho a res ot N w Orleans were under the contiol ot Rebels, ani wen a sort of raliybie point, where tiif-y dime together tj show their sympathy for tho R b -l ca ise. They were the especial paradise of seces-lon woman, nnd thither they went, night a'ter night, with flowers arranged in the r hair to represent tho I'.ebel colors. The na lonal airs were never heard, and thus, under the very shadow of mili taiy headquarters, were nursed tlie sentiments of dislovalry. Dostie determined that all this sliouH be chnnped. .Accordingly, he flllel toe body of tho leading theatre one ni.ht with members of bis League, and before the pel torm ance commenced, he arose and re-pcctlully- re quested that the orchestra would play the national airs. No a'tentlon was at first psid to this; but DosTtri announced that tho play could not go on until the patriotic airs ha I been per formed. In this he was backed up by tb body of tho house, who set up such a clamor when the actors appeared that they were totally unable to pioeeed in their parts. Too result was that the nalonal airs were played, in chat theatre tor the first tune in years, and tne Rebel ladies lelt tho house, as thoug.i a bomb-snell had burst among them. The attention of the military uutborit es being thus called to the aiibic;!, an order was isnied requiring tne:n to be played by the orchestra ot every theatre before tho performance could proceed. Dr. Dostik was ol'teu warned by his friends that he would bo assaisiua'cd If Ke remained in New Orleaus; and receutly he was warued by a secret vigilance committee, as were many other Union men, that he would not be per mitted to live in Louisiana. But h relused to leave what he bolieved to be his post of duly. He was a man of tine abilities, aud net long ago he made a speech that. wa3 published in pam phlet form, in which, with leiuarKablo force and enerey, he proclaimed the principles of uni versal liberty, and declared that, tho only hope of the Country was in our n ble and patriotic Congress. Of course lie was a marked m.in by the Re'oels, and was one cf the first victims ot tho murder ous fury of the recent mob. He was carried out ot (lie Convention hall almost literally aliot to pieces. He was a truly auiar;yr to liberty as any who have ever fallen in her sacred cause. Timkhrinu witu Dehpatchks, We always understood that when a aespatch was received lrom the Associated Press by any paper it was to be published a rent. If any paper, hud the light to so manipulate information as to alter the original as furnished, it not only deceives its readers, but places the Associated Press in a lalse light. The New Yorkj World ot to-aay,hw-ever, undertakes to arrange a despatch so as to suit its particular views. The azeut of the Associated Press sent the following on to New York:- COMMISSION DKCL1NED.

The World gi ves the following: A PHILADELPHIA FOOL. Philadelphia, August 5. Tho J'rcsr, to-day publishes a sarcastic let'er from one William F. Johnson, spuming his nomitiatun as Collector ot this port, and soundly abusing the President and Lis policy. The explanation is, that the commission to' W. F. Johnson, of Pittsburg, was, by the blunder of a clerk, misdirected, aud fell iuto tbe hands ot a radical blowhard of tbe same name iu this city, who could not forego the opportunity of expressing his views. By publ shiug this despatch, it makes it appear as though the Association was guilty of the most reprehensible practices of gathering and fur nishing news 1or party purposes. We consider such alterations as most unjust to tbe sender, and tending only to deceive the public. "In an ordinary business convention, there is merit in expedition: but where tho object is the renewal of acquaintance and friendly inter course, and the re-establishment of cordial rela tions among brethren who have been estranged, time must be allowed for thawing reserve aud removine impediment! to that "flow of soul" which is the endearing circumstance in an in terchange of courtesies. Till the members have euten, and drank, aud joked together, aud have become mellowed by conviviality into an easy reciprocation of pood-will, it will be hardly expedient tor them to enter on the discussions 'of pith and moment' which the country stands ou tip-toe to bear, and awaits with listening ears." y. Y. World. We agree with our contemporary. The only way we see to make General John A. Dix come to an agreement with C. L. Vallandiohau will be to get the old hero maniticeutly drunk. But we ft ar even champagne will not harmonize the conflicting interests which will animate the delegates to the Philadelphia Convention. Comptroller ofthb Currency. Tho position of Comptroller of the Currency has been made vacant by the resignation of Hon. Freeman Clark k. We see, by a special to a New York contemporary, that II. R. Hclburd, Esq., is to be appointed to the past. Mr. Hclburd has been, for several years, Deputy Comptroller, and in that potitiou has become thoroughly vetsed in all tbe details of the office. Holding, as we do, that tbe Government is best served in its high offices by those who have been dis ciplined in a subordinate post, we hone that the statement may be true. Mr. Hclburd is an able financier, and thoroughly acquainted with the Comptrollershlp. and will, we doubt not, make an excellent oflicpr. The Dull Summer Tub Fall Trade. Tbe dull business period which has a lie c ted Phila delphia in so marked a manner for a number of weeks past, will soon bo followed by a recur rence of our former commercial activity. The fashionable denizens of our city, who have sought relief from the cholera, the dust, sun stroke, etc., by a periodical ncgira to spas and mountain summits, will soon be returning, and their exhilarated looks and r freshed minds will prove an antidote for the dull times and an Incentive to trade. Very dull times are fol lowed, generally, by an active business season, as a long peace is followed by a sanguinary war. The business this year bs, been particularly tnlc, flat, and unprotltaMe." We have been In doubt as to the action of Con press on various financial measures, such as iho Fundlna bill and the Tariff; and uncertain as to the extent nnd prevalence of tne epidemic, and of many thinas besides of no less import ance in their relation to commercial nd financial a Hairs, in consequence of which there has been an unparalleled decadence in everjthlig 1 ke trade. Our bnoiuess with other and smaller cities, and In the Miadle. Western, and Southern States, has riecrencd wonderfully, and from every locality conio3the universal complaint of dulnes and stagnation. To those w ho have had stocks on hand, and have oeencompellet to pay tho extor tionate rents demanded on busin 'ss streets, this ctafe of affairs has been most disastrous. But now that Count Bipmarr's policy has broucrht the Kurofean war to a speedy termination; now Unit the last ukase has gone forth frotn Con-fiicf-s until the coming winier; now that it eeems that the Board ot Health are tnking initiatory steps to prevent tho cholera, which will doubtless be anticl pated by a return of cold weather, mer chants loos, forward to a more flattering condition ot aflVrs. The stocks of poods in the hands of country dealers are now very Itmi'.ed, and when liuancial affairs commence reviving, their supplies of goods will have to be imme diately renewed.

EVEMNO TELKOHAPH SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE. Atlantic Citv, N. J., August 6. Step by step slowly, it is true, but surely this once desolate and dreary strip of ocean shore has assumed all the characteristic features of a first-class watering-place. We need ruu back but a lew years in our remembrance to ret all the time when it was frequented only by the lounser of a day. A three-hours' ride through a barren tract of country, a breath ot air that was not tainted with the smoke and dust ot the city, a dip In wa'.er that was clear and pure from its very Immensity, a dinner on the beach or in some rickety structure called by mere courtesy a hotel, another dip, und theu back again through the wildoinees to tho light ana lile ol the world; such was the programme of a day. Tbe programme of a week was seldom contemplated. but tho past ton years have wrought a mar vellous change in the aspect of the world; and Atlantic City, though bo tar removed from it, has meekly followed with it. There are hotels which, inside aud out, aie strictly first-class commodious and comfortable. The people who live in tho great world beyond the barienness of pines have discovered this fact, aud hither they come trooping in goodly numbers, accom panied by their baggage, and nurturing tho deliberate intention of remaining a week or a month. In other words, Atlan'.ic City has become a "watering-place." It has llsewise become fashionable. These two short sentences comprise tbe gist of the matter. Saturday evening was marked by an event which will tend to rnder the place more popular aud more fashionable than ever. This, as all the world by this time knows, was a grand Operatic Concert. The concert was followed by a Hop. The concert was a novelty the hop was not, being an old institution. People come here on purpose to bop. While the sun shines they hop into the water, they hop about among the breakers, aud then they hop out again. And when the sun goes down, from mere wilfulness, and prompted by a feeling ot surplus energy, they hop about the parlors and dining-halls until their heads grow dizzy aud their knees weak. But until Saturday afternoon, no one ever dreamed of coming through tho pines to this desolate coast, tor the avowed purpose of libtening to prime donne and tenore who have figured on the stage of the Academy itself. On Saturday, however, people left the city to the number of a legion or more. They sought the sea-side, not so much because it was the sea-side, as because it was the scene of tbe Operatic Concert. As William T. Caleb, ''mine host" of the Surf House, wus.gullty of devising and perfecting this great innovation, the leg'.on became hl guests. Caleb, by-the-way, In a good soul. People who stop at the Surf House some times swear by his name, so great is his popu larly. The secret of it lies just here he has an eye to the comfort of his guests; they suffer not for want of meat or drink, not if he can help iU So Caleb devised and arranged tbe operatic concert, which came elf, according to promise, on Saturday evening at eight o'clock. The spacious dlning-hall was fulL Everybody of pretension on tbe inland was there, notwith standing an uupiopitious tit of weather, and a bop, with attractions, elsewhere. The audience was one of the most select that was ever col lected at Atlantic, and the hearty mann r in which the etlorts of the artists were reeelved showed that they had the capacity and the dis position to appreciate good music. The programme carried out on the occasion was the lollow ing: , 1. Overture lrom Bellini'6 Monna, by (the Orchestra. 2. Ana "Pro Peccatis" from Rossini's ttahat Mahr. Sung by Proiessor Jean Louis, of Phila delphia. ' 3. Ant's "Sleep Well, Dear Child." Sung by Franz ilimmer. of the German Opera. 4. Encore Thou Beauteous Maiden" Abt. 6.

Sweet Angel." Sung by Madame Freder'el. 12. Repeated (ii rruxirt. The orchestration was furnished by the Sat ferlee Band, under the vigorous leadership of Herrmann. Of Us merit we need not speak in this connection. The aria sumr by Professor Louis were accompanied by the full orchestra, while the Professor himself accompanied the other singers on tho piano. Tbe reception ac corded to neir 1111111110? an ! Madame Fredricl was very flatterine, tho artists beinT received on their Crsl appearance with hearty bursts of ap plause. They were compelled to respond fo an encore at the end of each morccnu placed upon the programme. Madame Frederic was particu .arly happy in all her efforts. She never acquitted herself to better advantage in her great rote of '-Msrgi.ente," than she did on Saturday night iu the new one of a popular conccriistf. The concert over, the hall was cleared of most of tbe incumbrances in the way of chairs, and E. G. Cattell, Ksq., of Camden, tjok pos session of the floor as Virtntmr of the "Hop." Here, again, the strains of the Satterlce Band came into full play. Enticing as had been the warbling trills ot Fredenci and the hearty notes of Ilimmer, this was tho moment which, after oil, had tho most charms for many of the audience. They fell into the Hue of r)ungl's "Promenade March" without confusion and w ithotit delay. Then they bore the compara tive inactivity of a plain quadrille for the saKe of the more enticing Waltz and Schottische by which it was mcceeded. Ti e "Laucers," and a gallop -Gunirl's "Greetings to My Love" filled the remainder of the first half of the programme. An intermission of a few minutes at this point was followed by a Polka Quadrille, Rcdowa, Hop Waltz, and so on, until the finale was reached by Herr Herrmaun's "Seashore Gallop." Then there was a light fantastic- trip ping that charmed the eyes aud hearts of the lookers-on, as well as of the participants. This was our sole delight, lor we were of the "Quaker foot." Still, we had an eye for the beauty, lame, and fashion present on th? floor: and as we Flood aiarotf in our shaded corner, we jotted down their names. Here they are, marshalled In irregular order: Miss Hunter, of Havana, the acknowledged belle of the evening; Mateo Quintero, lady and daughters, of Havana; Mrs. Latrobe, of Balti mqre; Colonel Gamble, ot Florida; the Misses Quiune, ot Irojiton; Colonel Geroiaine, United States Ainiy; Captain Wetmore, United States Navy, ai.a lady; Cuptain McLean Tiltou, of the United States Marine Corps. Annapolis, and lady; and Mrs. SimpBon, of Washington, D. C. The following were nearer home, being all from Puiladelphia: Charles Besson and lady, Miss Beile and Miss Georgie Jones, E. DeCernea and lady, Colonel Nelson, S. T. Souder aud lady, Thomas Horner, Henry B. Potter, Alfred Cro nielien, II. J. Vetterlien, Miss Garden, aud A. II. Deriiekeou and lady. Takiue the Concert ard the Hop, together or alone, they were p'onouiiced by all irequen'ors ot Atlantic City as being among the greatc t successes of this or any previous season. Ere the clock bespoke the hour of twelve, Herr Herrman dropped his wand, and the dancers betook themselves to their several stopping places. The Sabbath that followed was what might be called a halcyon day cool aud quiet, wut h a Sabbath by the sea-siiie is worth a score in the city. There were relie.ious services in all of the churches, which were filled with appreciative and comfortable audiences. The largest crowd, composed of the repre sentatives of all denominations, sought tlie Roman Catholic Church of St. Nicholas, of which Father Crane is pastor. The music was to be the great attraction. The exercises were under the leadeisnip of Profesjor Louis, who had tho whole Saiterlee Band to aid him. The pioprammo included the aria "Pro Pecatis," from Rossini's Mahal Matfr, sung by Jeau Louis; the. sublime "Incarnatua" from Moaart's 'JuefOi Mass, by a well-known amateur from St. Augupline's, Philadelphia; and Schubert's "Ave Maria" as au offertorie, by Franz Himmer. It being Sunday, there were not so many fresh arrivals in the morning as usual, nor did any great number of persons indulge in the cus tomary sport ot bathing. The day was there fore a quiet and orderly one lust such a d iy, in fact, as a Sabbath by tho sea-side ought to be. In the evening, ho we irer, everybody came out of doors, the veiaudahs and lawns in front of the leading hotels, and the sidewalks along the main street, being crowded with loungers and proiLenuders. When another refreshing night had passed, hundreds awoke with the painful reflection that in a tew hours tbe music of the great waters would be supplanted in their ears by tbe soul harrowing din of the streets of a great city. The change in prospect was an unsavory one, but such are the.vlcissitudes of life. Omikrok. Obituary. The Ocean Telegraph tells us that the "Italian patriot Farini (ilazzlni!) is dead."

It eetms that a few months aeo William Brown was bired by Mr. J. B. Hoover, reaming at Washington Heights, One-hundred-aii1-f rtv tiret street, in the capacity of coachman, lor T several months William gave his em plojer no ieason to complain ot his attention to bufinees. But alast one flay William became acquainted with a SDiart-lookiug young womau, aud bHeviug be could ruu a double team as well as his master, piopoecd at once to take his fair one for b'ttcr or tor worse. He was accepted, aud tbe day was appoint d tor the happy ceremony. bow, William lound himself rathor short, and a. ked his master to loan him one hundred dol lain to help the matter along. Mr. Hoover dlii not reltire exac ly to loan the money, but he objected to William taking a partner, as he re quln d hiB single service at the stable in the event ot a horse becoming sick. Ho sever, not oishpanened by the refusal, William mad' np his mind to marry tho girl anyhow, and, in order 10 ratec tuiids to delray expenses, con cocted a plan whereby he con.emplated obtain ing a loan, and thus be enabled to carry out his matrimonial obligations. Accordingly, on the 1st ot August William reported to Mr. Hoover that the stable bad been broken into and thice horse-blaukets, together wttti wearing apparel, stolen therefrom. Mr. Hoover, believing th story, applied to Captain Slott, of tho Tnirtleth precinct, i nd the captain nelalled, Ollicer Tier nev to investigate the atlair. The oflici-r, on making an examination of the stable, saw that the breaking had been d mo Muir. the inside. This lact William did not imneine would be so cicely scrutinized by the police. Other tHcts were also discovered which led th-? ollicer to suspect that William was the burglar. The ollicer accused him, and finally took him into cus'ody ou the charee, and con- vt jea l irn to the Station House. There, after an incarceration of a tew hours, he confessed h's guilt, tnlormtng tho oflicer w here the pro perty could be found. It wis subsequently recovered at Tremont, West'-hester county, wherp it had bpen deDOdi'xd bv tlie accused.
