TnEAsunr.u'a ANNUAL r.KroitT. The annual report of United States Treasurer Giltillan , submitted to-day , uhowB that during the laat fiscal year the receipts of the government show M\ increase over 1880 from every aource. The increase in receipts from customs WIM $11,15:57Gll.4'2 : ; from in- tornac revenue , $11,225,011 59 : from ealcs of public lands , fl , 185,351).57 ; from miBceilancoua sourcoj , $3,117- ; 702.01 ; total incroaao.SOS.GSl.Dflj . which , added to the net reduction of $6,930,070.19 in expenditures , makes an increase in the surplus revovuo of ? 34,185,751.78 The net revenues were 300,782,292 57 ; not expendit ures , $200,712.887 59. The excess of receipts over payments waa$100,009- 404.98. of w ich $90,882,201.05 wua expended in the redemption ofthopub- lic debt. The baliinco in the treasury increased $48,007,003 93 ; from $203- 791,321.88 at bei-inning to $252,457- 925.81 at the end of the year. The amount expended on account of in- toreftt and premium on the public debt ran down from'698,552,895.53 during the year 1880 to $83,509,989.- 90 , a reduction of $14,982,905.57 during the year. Sixty four national banks were organized , and twenty went into voluntary liquidation , leav ing 2,130 doiiu ; business at the close of the year. There were no national bank failurea during the year. The semi-annual duty accruing from the national banks during the year was $849,355,255 , all of which haa been collected and paid at the close of the year. There waa held by the treasury in United States bonds $300- 505,900 as aecurity for the circulation of national bank depoaitorira. Dining the year $270,899,700 iu bonds w re deposited for these purponea and $277- 527,350 were withdrawn , exceeding , by far , the transaction of any former year. Theao ch.mgea aio chiefly due to the increases of 5 and G per cent , bonds at 3 per cent. , in p rt by the substitution of continued bonda for 4 and 4J per cent * . States bonds amounting to $8,531,050 wore retired during the year. Tlio aggregate amount retired by purchnso , redemp tion , conversion and exchange trom March 1 , 1869 , to thocloxo of the fiscal year ia $1,983,344,800. Coupone from United States bonds of the value of $227,970,075 were paid i'ur- ing the year. Quarterly iuloreit on rcgiatcrod stock of funded loaim amounting to $4,445,579,0 7 was paid by moana of 305,101 chocks , drawn and payable to order of thu respective stockholder , and Bent to them by mail , liy n comparative table of the condition of the treasury ct the cloae of September in cieh yonr of the laat four yoara , the most noticeable change is the increase in gold coin and bul lion and Btandard silver dollars 911 hand and in eilror certificates out standing. In 1880 gold ran down nearly $27,000,000 , but thia itocreaao waF > much moro than overcome in 1881 , when it increased moro than $41,01)0- ) 000 the highest point over attained. The groHB assets of the government , including funds held for the redemp tion of the gold , silver and currency certificates , are $331,981,210.11 , hav ing increased moro than $04,000,000 , during the laat year and being larger than any corresponding year since 1878. Thia increase ia duo in chM part to the doposita on account of nil- ver certificates , which amounted dur ing the year to $45,000,000. Thotrwm- urerstates that , while fraelyfurniahiug now United State * notes in redemp tion of old notes and national bank notes , ho has endeavored to husband the supply and IIBH of gold , standard silver dollars and paper certificates in payment of demands. The practice has been to make 10 per cent of all payment * in silver dollars or cer "t * tificates , 40 per cent in gold coin and 50 per cent in notua. To thia there ia an important oxnuption in the New York clearing hoiiso ; payments by the treasurer to this institution , amounting $25,000,000 a year , must bo made in gold coin or in United States notes. Aside from any personal views OH to the expediency of reviewing the ailver ( dollars , the treasurer thinks it unwise for any branch of the government to encourage an arrangement by which thia coin has been made legal tender. The treaaurer also nays tlmt unless calamity elmll overtake the na- tioii t1oro : seems to bo no probability of a run upon the reserve of the treas ury , Ho aas , too , that whatever percutilaye of reserve will protect United States notes will protect other liabilities. Tlio treasurer is of the opinion th.it n uniform percentage should _ be Riven for all current liabilities otiier than three classes of certificates , mid that the excess Of cash in the treasury blmuld bo expend 4 < d from time to time in the purchaser or redemption of the public debt , ac cording to some definite and jiublicl ; announced plan. Should this bo don the policy of the department woulc cease to be the subject of speculatioi and the inllticnce of the treasury would bo reduced. The amount o standard silver dollars coined to Sept 30 , 1881 , was $118,332,905 , of whicl § 32,373,42(1 ( , or nearly 33 per cent. , ia in circulation , and $ G5KiO,27 ! ! > remains mains in the treasury. There was : largo incieaau in the filver certificates in circulation N < i gold certificates have been issued since December 1 , 1871 although the law authorizing their is BUO is mi repeal ed. Tlie clearing house eertillcates at the close of the year amounted to 811,015,000 , the smallest amount outstanding tit the close of any fiscal year since their is sue began in 1873. The iimount o fractional silver coin in the treasury now stands at $20,343 , < > 77.57 , an in crease of $1,010,581.41) , ) in the lasi year , but a decrease of § 952,009.4(5 ( since August. The amount of minor coin now on hand is $552,585.06 , , as compared with $100.300.22 on Sep tember 30th , 1880. Regarding the redemption - demption of national bank notes the treasurer thinks , aside from the niero difficulty of apportioning espouses ol redemption , that the power now pos sessed by national banks of throwing up circulation at will was a wronj. principle , unnecessary and dangerous. If a bank finds that ita issues are be ing ledeerncd so rapidly aa to destroy profit the obvious remedy is to refrain from issuing redeemed notes and to retire themas permitted by statute , in sums of. $100,000. The treasurer ureca the restoration of former salaries of the treasurer's oflice. rtJIlCHASE OF SILVER. WASHINGTON , Sontumber 3.

NEWARK'S FAILURE- The Kncnlvcr Tr lc Foiscfulon No- Important Development * . ' n K&'ttoaM AawcUUxl 1'rws , ' tNK\VA K , N. J. , September 3. By dint of constant inaiatance the story of the defaulting cashier obtains sonic credence. The statement of the Uni ted States distiict attorney is that ho fully believes it will necessarily carry some weight , but the Newark people ) in general are strongly of opinion that any theory of Chr'iM. Nugent using Oacar Italdwin ia such an inversion of all probability that much positive oyi- denco will bo needed to sustain it. They refer frequently , lo propound the truth , that "the tail never wags the clog , " and refuse to believe that the lost $2,500,000are wandcringabout in sheep akin. The evidence , so far as there ia any , is ait the other way. It was an open1 secret Ion" ngo that a brief warning to the mechanics of Newark to look out for it wan put in writing and given to a detective firm , on the point that the audiior wns con stantly dealing in Wall Btreot and known to bo ao reported by persona whoso legitimate business culled them there ; it w.is . an open fcerot about the furlivo "ticker" and telephone ia Newark ; it was also an open eecrct that persons were urgently warned to eell Mechanics shares , _ nnd that Bomo shrewd holders , without external warning , did in fact sell , be cause they thought the stock pretty high. S > mo of these sales were per haps made on account of theatrical management developments , which ap parently received no attention from the directors , though long since ia pi int. Some of thorn are certainly duo to that. It ia almost sure that fresh revelations are yi t to come. The rumors that the directors of the Me chanics' national bank , or some of them , will make up the required sum and continue thohusincasof the bank in thought to have some foundation. The directors are amply able to do thia. They are men used to the good opinion of the" world , necessarily Honsi- tivo to the unsparing comments of the public and press , and acutely aware oftheir present painful position. It is , therefore , quite likely they are seri ously conBidprHig'soino of the many- plans inenlitmcd of nmtpting the bank to credit 'andf"usefulness. Receiver Frelinghuyson took possession of the bank this morniiiL' . His appointment is favorably received. He will take no active part in the management until the examiner hai concluded hia report. The appointment followed the failure sooner than is customary on account of the numerous civil suits projected , which became imperative ! immediately upon the receiver taking ; possession , but which are first liens when brought before that event. Iho failure of Denis Osborn , grocer , ia not considered a serious affair. No other failurea are reported , and nonu lire expected nt present. The Spealcortihip. Special to the Clnclnnntl Commercial.
