EVENING BULLETIN.

NATIOfiAi. TELNAFIVION.
The report of the Secretary of the Treasury
shows that with some modcrate economy in
the expenditures of the Government the an
on) total can be kept withins2so,ooo,ooo. Of
this, one-half is needed tor interest on the
debt, theitst for the cost of governing.
liew•as we receive, one ytiatmith another,
ever $150,000,000 from customs, we have
under $lOO 000,000 to be raised from all other
sottrees. It is the settled • drspositlon of the
sentry that as much of this as possible shall
be raised by the excise on spirits and tobacco.
And as the balance can be covered by the
sales of stamps, and by some other sources of
revenue, .it is very clear that there is no occa
sion (hat the odious Income tax should con
thaw totelevied for another year.
It need scarcely be -said, however, that Ito
inch common-sense view is to be found is
the Secretary's •report.. Common sense, in—
dick-and that fturctionttry have long ceased
to be on terms. 'This Act must be evident to
every one who reads his report and obseives
that:
First-4n the face of the fact that we are
increasing (as he states) by some sixty mil
lions annually our foreign indebtedness, which
he estimates as already eight hundred and
Any millions, and which is thus growing year
by year by our over-importations of foreign
luxuries, he actually advises a reduction Of
the tariff.
SeeClid—at is the wellsettled conviction
of our people that in honorably meeting all
our, engagements, we do
,enough, and that
there is no reason why this generation should
Impose upon itself the paying off of the prin-
Opal of the national debt. In the face of this.
the Secretary wishes to raise by internal taxa
tion one hundred and seventy-tive millions
per annum for the express purpose of
reducing the debt.
Third—lt is .thogertera. conviction that
the country is now •very' prosperous tinder its
„paper currency, and .that whilst a return to
specie payment must not be lost sight of, it
is a measure that must await a spontaneous
appreciation of the currency. That whilst
legislation might be useful to bring about a
resumption when gold •should fall to 5 or 10
per ocent premium, any attempt to force it
,under other circumstances would probably
re2nft in disaster, and - eventitaliy fail after
amusing much misery. Bat the Secretary
appears, in favor of attempting this by
lone.
If, as we have shown, hisviews have little
lo do with common sense, it is fortunate that
they will have no weight with Congress,
which body will, there is little doubt, be
guided by wiser counsels than those of
,fir. McCulloch.
Affairs in the'East are approaching a crisis
en more rapidly than we anticipated.
" "Sthont waiting for the appointed five days
given by Turkey, the Grecian government
has answered the Sultan's uitimatum With a
fromptness that proves a predetermined
pehey, and the consciousness of strength
gained from •powerful support. Greece has
refused to yield a single point to the demands
of Turkey, but still claims the right to aid
the brave Cretans in their unequal struggle.
The Prince of Wales, in some sort represent -
kig England, the ally of Turkey, and the
King of Denmark, father of the Sing of
• Greece, have united in urging the latter to an
cent the Sultan's terms, and pinveat a tern'-
, ble—perhaps a general war, But the Grecians
obstinate; and we are informed that their
relations with Turkey will be immediately
itlittspended. The result possibly may ad'act
'these two powers only But it is not
likely . ,lhat the war will have such narrow
A: weak government like that of
Greece would not have dared to act so deli
4, sully unless with the assurance of assistance
',near at hand. it would have been suicidal
madnesti. Russia is the power upon which it
4elies and upon the Czar probably rasa+ the
' .
.tzsesponallity for the present very unpleasant
fg
nation of Wawa' Turkey has bigua al
.
ready to concentrate troops upon the 4.4 ream
‘

.Ip:toren:lied luterVention on the part of It testa
''r,ifitnd in snub an event, it fa impossible to per,.
teiVB how England and Frames can avoid bu
`COP2ing involved in the istrife.
So, the peace of Europe' is 'laud" to be
broketiin a dheetion away, freak whioh all
eyes have been - turned for '
many- months past.
Instead-of fighting' , with Prussia, Napoleon
will twee even a more powerfni adversary to
contend agaltitt, and While a war may dispel
revoluthmary ideas in the minds , of his people
for the present,it is not impossible that Pnissia
may seize the opportunity to carry out her
schemes of annexation, and aggrandize her
, self so thg , there will be frOsik 01128f3 for
content fir Prance when the War is ended.
The cable news daring the next two or three
days promises to be interesting and im-
We shall: publish to-morrow very able
and eloquent report ppon Indian . affairs,
which the Right-Rev. Bishop Whipple has
Just presented to the EpiscoPal Board of Mitt
-alone. Bishop -Whipple has /ong nwle ttie
condition of the Tudiani hie special
study, and their , civilLzaticui his special
mission. He has jtuit returned
from Fort Wadsworth, where he has
been engaged- in distributing supplies among
the destitute Indians. In a private letter
Bishop Whipple says: "I reached home to
day from Fort Wadsworth. It has been a
perilous journey, a part tif it over prairies as
dreary and desolate as, any country I ever
saw, for I had from six to fifteen inches of
snow, and a part'of the time one of the'moat
terrible storins I ever met. , The stopping
places were the poorest, dirtiest log shanties,
some as cheerless and as dirty as any attic in
your city, and for diet salt pork and sakeratus
bread. * * * I - am overpaid;'-in \ the
thought that God has kindly permitted me to
'save'ma y poor creatures from death :'You
have no idea of the want of this people. • I
knew them six years ago, `and : I . thought they
were the finest specimens of Indians I ever
knew, but poverty and sorro,w haye changed
them so that it made heart ache. * * *
I am worn out with the trip, and, it seems,
ten years older, but I am overpaid."

Neither Lord Chesterfield, nor-any other man

as well-fitting clothes, as well made clothes, as
durable clothes, or as desirable clothes, in any
respect, as you can now buy, for a mere trifle, at
the great BROWN STONE HALL. In olden
times, good - clothes were .worn only by , the
wealthy few. But now the great public some
with their cash; and, in Chesterfield, Sacks,
Cheviot Overcoats, Beaver Cloth, Trisat, and

Lord Chesterfield was a gay old fellow;
A gay old fellew was he;
He died on the twenty-fourth of March,
In seventeen seventy-three.
A splendidly gotten up sort of a man,
From hie hat to the tips of his toes;--
But what he was chiefly famous for -
Was the elegant style'of his clothes.
In Chesterfield's day they bad to pay
For a coat to put on one's back,
Five times as much as you do, to-day,
For the finest Chesterfield Back. '
And, if you inquire the reason why
They bad to pay so much more,
We answer; they then had' no such thing
