The- re• eeipts from the (v a t ,yeates in , am year wal ing June 30th, 1862, were $8,299,320, which is within $50,000 of the total receipts from all the States in 1860-61.' The expendi tures for the same -years wore as follows : I $11,125,364 itr.lB6l-62, against .. : a6,- 759 in 186064, showing a decrease of a bout $2,481,006 for the last peer, and of $3,750,000 as compared with in 1860. The 1 deficit has been reduced from 64,550,000 to $2,220,000.

It is difficult to discern in 7t: it• ler the laudatory language is their's or the Pres ident'l. We hope nut the latter. Preeeeding this there is a brief discus sion of past and future plans of finance.— The vast expenditures for the warliave been mot with unusna: promtitude and certainty, and the National debt fully maintained,— Large issues of U. States notes have been unavoidable; but they have become a valu ed and universal currency, saving the -peo ple immense sums in discount and eSchan ges. But a return to specie payments must be kept in view, and it. is considered doubt ful whether suchi a eireulaion,- payable in coin, can be pm ma'nently maintained. The President, therefore recommends the organi zation of Banking Associations, under a gen-, end Act of•Congiess, to which the Govern ment is to furnish circulating notes upon a pledge of United States bonds. Thus, it is argued, would. improve the currency, protect labor,•lurnish a cheap and safe txchange, and snake a steady demand for the Govern meat bonds., The receipts into the Treasury fop the fis cal year were $583,885,247; and the dis bursements for the same period were $570,- 841,700, leaving a balance July Ist ) IMO, of $.1.3,043,547.
