of the usual temperature of ice water,
and no matter h.0.7 the thermoinetsr stands
on the surface of the earth, even if it in

never varies, and the ice is always there.
In the winter the coating is thicker. No

The last statement of the publia deL5
is probably the mo-t tiatifyiug of the
many that nave appeared from time to
time sines the debt assumed it3 gigantio
proportions. Iu the month of Septem
ber, tho net liqujdatlon amounted to
822,C4J,2:i, rl since August 1st, 1S35,
the sum oi t?lc':,91C,SS4, being an aver
age over thirteen millions per month
since that date. The process cf liquida
tion as thus ezcrur.'.ifit.i! is a steady and a
sure thing, and Lids fair under prudent
management, to continue ia that ratio
until the entire Luithcn of the national
indebtedness is revioved, A inaia feat
ure of the last statement ij the conver
tion of seen-t! ir.ies in'o five-twenty
bonds, a fact which goes to chow the de
tcrmluatiea of the Secretary of the Treas
ury to consolidate the debt as far as poa
sib'e into a uniform shape, aud rid the
department of the apprehended etnbar
assmeat to meet the national creditors
whnsa boiids full due ia a t-hort time.
More than eighty -six inilliom of the sev
en thirty loau (originally 580,000,000,
now reduced to ? 743.fOtj,00"j have thus
been funded. The notes proviJed for
were nearly all of the first series, matur
ing in Angast cf the coming year.
Ilettec, it seems that over a fourth of the
uotes of this series I'origtnally antounting
to 8joO,Ov.k.OO) have been prt maturely
funded, lessening, to this estent, the im
pending calls oa the department lor cash
or bonds, according to the reversed rights
of noteholders. The bulk of the series
will dout)t'e--s be as satisfactorily arrang
ed for, ahead of maturity. Half of tho
temporary loan has been cancelled during
the month. It was as much as 81",5oij,
000 on the 1st u'.t., it is now down to
?!'2..j0r!,0i.'i. These arc important guius
