State Treasurer Noyes' annual report
shows that the receipts for the year
ended November 30th, 1579, were t58,14:i,-
895.1f, and the payments, $6,521),068.10.
The revenue has been slightly in excess
of the estimates made to the Legislature,
and the expenditures somewhat larger
than hud been anticipated. The general
revenue bill did not increase the revenues
and the deficit in the Treasury i> about
the same as at the close of the previous |
fiscal year, $1,750,000.
The State Treasurer expressed the
opinion that the revival in business will
materially increase the receipts the pres
ent year. "Added to this," says Col.
Noyes, "will be the saving of some #OOO,-
000 by reason of no session of the Legis
lature." It is to be hoped that the future
Legislatures will see the importance of
keeping the appriuuions within the amount!
of the receipts into the Treasury, ami j
thus avoid the disgrace of having this old !
commonwealth in a condition of being j
unable to pay the legal demands upon it. '

" THE LEAD ISO AMERICAS NEWS
PAPERS
THE NEW YORK
TRIBUNE
FOR 188 U.
During the coming Presidential year The Tribune
will be a more effective agency than ever for telling
Uie news best worth knowing, nnu for enforcing
sound polities. From the day tiie war closed it has
been most anxious for an enu of sectional strife.
But it saw two years ago. and was the first ,s i*i
eiitly w Proclaim the new danger to the country
from the revived alliance of tin* Solid South and
Tammany llali. Against that danger it sought to
rally the old party of Freedom and the Union It
began by demanding ilu abandonment of personal
dislikes, and set the example. It called for an end
to attacks upon each other instead of the enemy;
and for the heartiest agreement upon whatever lit
candidates tiie majority should put up against tin
common foe. Hince then the tide of disaster has
been turned back; every doubtful state bus been
won, and the outrun for National victory were never
more cheering.
TDK TRIBUNE'S POSITION.
'-ft The Iribum s share in all this, thos< speak
most enthusiastically who have seen most of the
struggle. It will luithiully portray the varning
phases of the campaign now beginning. It will
earnestly strive that the party of Freedom, Union
and Public. Faith may select the man surest to win,
and surest to make a good President. But in this
crisis it can conceive of no nomination this party
could make that would not be preferable to the best
that, could possibly be supported by the Holid South
and Tammany Hall.
The 1 ribune Is now spending much labo and
money than ever before to hold the distinction it has
enjoyed of the larytnt circulation among the bent
| people. it secured, -and means to retain it by be
coming thtt medium of the beat thought and the
voice of the beat conscience of the time, by keeping
abreast of the highest progress, favoring the freeca
discussions, hearing ail sides, appealing always to
the best intelligence and the purest morality, and re
fusing to carter to the tastes of the vile, or the preju
dices of the ignorant.
HI'KOIAL FEATURES.
The distinctive features of The Tribune are known
to everybody. It gives ail the news. It has the
best correspondents, and retains them from year to
year, It is the only paper that maintains a speeial
telegraphic wire of its own between its office and
Washington. Its scientific, literary, artistic and re
ligious intelligence is the fullest. Its book reviews
are the best, its commercial ami tiuanciul tic's is
the most exact its type is the largest; and Us ar
rangement the most systematic.
TllK SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUN
is by far the most successful Semi-Weekly in lite
country, having four times the circulation of any
other in New York. It is especially adapted to the
large class of intelligent, professional or business
readers too lar from New York to depend on our
papers lor the daily news, who nevertheless want
tiie editorials, correspondence, book reviews, scien
tific matter, lectures, literary iniscelluney, etc,, for
which The Tribune is famous. Like The Weekly
it contains sixteen pages, and is in convenient form
for binding,
THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE
remains the great favorite of our substantial country
population, and lias the largest circulation of any
YVeekly issued from the office of a Daily paper in
New York, or, s. far as we know, in the United
Miuics. It revises and condenses all the news of the
week into more readable shape. Its agricultural de
purtment is more carefully conducted than ever, and
it has always been considered the best. Its market
reports are the official standard for tile Dairymen's
Association, ami have long been recognized author
ity on cattle, eruiu and general country produce.
There are special departments for the young and for
household interests; the new handiwork department
already extremt ly popular, gives unusually accurate
and comprehensive instructions in Knitting, crochet
ing, and kiudrid subjects; while poetry, lietion and
the humors of the day are all abundantly supplied.
The verdict of tin* tens of thousand old readers who
have returned to it during the past, year is that they
find it better than ever. Increasing patronage ami
facilitias enable us to reduce the rates to the lowest
point we have ever touched, and to otier the most
amazing premiums yet given, as follows:
