Tho vessels of tho North Atlantic
.fleet, nro being concentrated at Port
Royal, S. C, as it la tho Intention of
tho Secretary of tho Navy to make that
place the headquarters of the Station.
The climate of tort l.oyrtl Is healthful,
tho harbor offers every facility for tho
wcerclse of naval tr.etics, and vessels
rendezvoused there could reach .Cuban
waters and tho ,Qulf,wliero our Interests
need most to be looked after, within
forty-eight hours, it is tho policy of
tho Navy Department to havo our homo
squadron larger than any abroad, so as
to be prepared for any emergency which
may arise out of the Cuban trouble. In
this connection, it Is said to bo believed
"In well-informed circles" at Wash
ington, that tho uncertain hold which
Spain lias upon Cuba may Involve tint
power in a difficulty with the United
States, and may also causo it to part
with that island "as a matter of neces
sity." Many vessels will bo ordered to
Tort Royal from our Northorn ports,
as well as several from abroad.
Cash Sales.
Ilenry Nothsteln & Son, merchants,
of East Pcnn, have .thjs week Issued a
notlco to their customers and friends,
that on and alcr February 1st, they
will do business ody on a cash basis,
and that they have parked down the
price of goods accordingly. This is a
step In the right direction, If people
would pay cash us they go, Instead of
running up monthly bills, our business
men could' afford to mark down the
prico of nearly every article of family
necessity, There Is pcarcely a working
man In this neighborhood that Is neces
sitated to ask credit from month to
month from his grocer ; he receives his
monthly wages regularly, and might
Just as well go to the store with the
cash In his hand, pay down for what he
gets, as to carry a book and have it put
down. It Is simply a bad and foolish
practice tho workingmcn have fallen
Into, and many dishonest persons take
advantage of tho credit system to run
up bills and then run away and never
pay them j and who are the sufferers
.thereby ? Tho merchant or the custom
er? Wo say both. For the careful
business man must, In fixing the price
of his goods, make a margin for bad
debts, and, consequently while he suf
fers a portion of the loss, tho customer
who pays must also suffer a proportion
ate loss, in that he has to pay a certain
percentage advance on all goods he
purchases more than he would have to
do f all paid the cash for their goods
when they made their purchases. The
cash system Is the only real way of do
ing business, and If it was once fairly
Inaugurated, we would hear very little
more of failures in business and hard
times.

Stale Troiumrot'' Report.
In the House of Representatives, on
Wednesday Inst, Major A. Wilson Nor
iln, Private Secretary of tho Governor,
presented the annual report of the Stute
Treasurer. It is us follows :
Gentlemen : I submit herewith, In
conformity to law, a statement of tho
receipts and expenditures of the Treas
ury for tliu flseal year ending Novem
ber aoth, lSTfl, showing a reduction of
if l,3J5,4l7 03 of tho public debt, aiul a
balance 111 the Treamirv of $01)3.207 27,
of which $53,334 78 U to tho ciedlt" of
(hu General Fund, while the approprl.
atlons jet duo and payable out of this
fund will exceed o0,U00.
I again deMro to call tho attention of
tlie Legislature to the disproportion bo
tweeh'the revenue nml the require
ments of the Sinking and General
Funds, While tho former Is largely In
excess of the demands of 'the Constitu
tion, tho latter Is entirely iiindcu.uato to
pny the ordinary expenses of the State
oyernmeiii, with constant embarrass
ment during the last fiscal year to tho
Treaursy and to tho creditors of tho
Commonwealth.
Prompt legislation Is necessary, eith
er in the form of additional taxation or
of a diversion ot a portion of tho Sink
ing Fuud revenuo to general uses, for
tho relief of tho Treasurer and the pro
tection of our credit.
Tlie revenues of tho Sinking Fuud
consist of the tax on corporation stock
placed in that fund by Legislative en
actment as per act of May 0th, 1874,
amounting to 82,000,000 ; the proceeds
of the sale of the public works, placed
theio by authority of tho Constitution,
amounting to $730,000. Tho Consti
tution compels tho maintenance of the
Sinking Fund at sufficient to pay 250,
000 of the principal and the Interest
on the public debt, which would to
gether, amount to 81,575,000.
It is, therefore, the privileges of tho
Legislature to ruako any diversion of
the tax on corporation stock, or sub
stitute any other taxes, provided tho
Sinking Fund is maintained at sufficient
to meet the demands of the Constitu
tion. Very respectfully your obedient
servant, It. W. Macket,
State Treasurer.
Tho report of the ComnilssionorH of
the Sinking Fund sets fotth as follows ;
In compliance with the fourth section
of the act approved April 22rid, 1!58 ;
the fifth section of 'tho act approved
April 13th, 1870, and the fourteenth
section of an act approved May 0th,
1874, we havo the honor to submit the
following report for tho ear ending
November 3Uth, 1875:
That the amount of principal of debt
redet med during the year was $1,335,
407 63.

Thus leaving an Indebtedness un
provided for of $13,760,504 80.
The entlro debt ot the Common
wealth maturing or payable before
Nov. 30tb, 1875, has been paid or pro
vided for. Tho revenues of the Sjuk
Ing Fund must therefore necessarily ac
cumulate in the treasury until 1877,
when a portion of our outstanding In
debtedness becomes payable unless tho
Legislature shall authorize tho pur
chase at market ratos of a portion of
the debt not yet duo. On August 1st,
1877, the five per cont. gold loan of
(he act ot May 4th, 1852, amounting
to $3,207,500 Is das and reimbursable.
This IS tho only loan of the Commnn
yeajth actually duo In that year. Tho
s'scond or 10-15 series of tho six per
cent, 'loan of 1807 Is payablo at any
time after the first of Feburary, 1877,
and before tbe'first of February, 1882,
at the option ol the Commonwealth.
The holders of the better class of
certificates will have no lawful claim
for tbe principal of their debts until
1882. The receipts of the Sinkmn
Fund, if that fund is maintained as at
present constituted up to August 1st,
1877, will suffice to redeem at maturity
the entire amount of the five per ceut.
gold loan, In addition to the payment
of the annual inteieet upon the State
debt.
Its maintenance, however will neces
sitate the imposition of new taxes to
tustain the general revenue, which has
beep" found entirely insufficient to meet
tbe general expenses of tho Common',
wealth.
Itespectfully submitted,
M. S. Quay,
Secretary of tbe Commonwealth.
