Tho reprosontas tives hore, both of the Smith and anti-Bmith factions, clajm that the floal action of the Goverament will bo in their favor. * Judgoe Wil- ehiro, & Bepnhglcm Represéntative in Congress from Arkanass, who' represents the antl-8mith faction herc, snys that the assurances which he bas - recolved show that' the Presidont will do notbing to encourage the Bmith movomont. Bonator Dorsoy, who appoars to be the leading ropresentative of Smith jthero, Insists, on the other hand, that the Premdent will recognize Bmith when the oase ghall have boen more fully prosented to him. Thore doca not seem to be a suflcient basis for this bellef on the part of Dorsoy. Judge Poland still con- tinues to decline to give any positive opinion'ss to bis own view, or as to' the probable action of the Congressional Committee. The Dorsey pao- plo claim that Poland hes made Xrlvnk Topre- sentations to sho Presidont and Attorney-Gon- eral favorable to the Smith mavement.

An army officer, who has boen sponding some months fu the South, and who returned hure to- dny, confirma the boliof that the successes of tho Domooratio party in 1876 would bo followed by an attempt to reimburse ths Bouthorn Demo- crats for all dnmages anstained by thom while rosisting the Union armies in tho late War. This oflicer says that, in all tho Soutborn States, the persons who suffered these losses have, sinco the olections, bogun to gathor evidenco i suppors, of tho claims which thoy will mako upon the Governmont in $ho evont of tho oxpected advent of the Demoorstic party to power., This officer, who himsolf was 1n come mwand of s division which lived upon the enomy's couvtry, was at valous places ques- tioned as to the line of march and the charactor of tho operations of tho troops under his com= mand. The avowed purposo of these inguiries was to obtuiu information which might be used 28 evidenco in tho faturo prosecution of these claims, The persons inquiring made no con- conlment of their intentiovs or the purport of their questions. The Postmastor-Genaral is about to malie A FURTHER NEDUCTION in the special sgenoy forco of the Post-Office Deopartment. The bumber of the present force is forty-nine. It is to bo reduced to thirty.

THE WORK OF A REFORXM in the Fedoral offices, which began in Texas, in to be continued in all tho Bouthern Btates, Bpecial Agents of tlie Treasury aco now engaged in mok- ing invostigations in” sovoral of tho Bouthern Btates as to tbe charactor and capscity of the leadivg Federal officebolders, A ‘very strong rren\lu is belng " brought to bear upon ho seversl Dopartmonts and the President Dy political persons to secure aroversal of tho ac- tion already taken with regavd to Toxas, and ta prevent a further application of this polioy to tho otber Boutharn Btates. Tha real reason why the Governmont deteetives, Hester and Beach, ‘who bave performed such important and peou- Jiar parts tn the lest thrce montbs in Alabama, in connection with the outrage business, have returned to Washington, is that thoy were re- callod. These agents appoar to bava acted out- sido of their authorlty, oy were dispatobed to tho Bouth for the puiposo of discovering and ar- resting the pugmtutoraol the vory brutal murdnr of tho Poatal Clerk, Ivey.

Lo —_—— INTERNAL REVENUB! ANNUAL REPORT OF TIIE COMMISSIONER. Tho Hon. T. W. Douglass, Commissiouer of In- tornal Revenue, has submitted his anvual report to tho Suoretary of the Trensury. The followivg intoresting extracts are made from the report : . DEoETS. The aggregate receipts from all sources, exclu- siva of the duty upon tho capital, circulation, ard deposits of National Banks, aud tho colloc- tions made by contract under tho act of May 8, 1872, for the fiscal year onded June 80, 1874, woro $103,644,746.98, exceoding the oatimates of tho Commissioner by $2,044,746.98. This amount inoludes ° suma rofusded and sllowed as drawbacks. Two hundrod and thir- teen thousand ¢wo hundrod and twenty-five dol- lars and thirty-four ceuts of these collections havo beon covered into tho Troasury and appear in tho statistical tables of tho next annual re- port, Tho Commissionor estimates tho receipts for the current flacal year, under the prosent law, at $107,000,000. A comparative table show- ing the receipts from the sovoralgources relating to distilled apirita for the fiscal year, ended Juns 80, 1878 and 1874, shows a net aggregato decrease for -tho yenr 1874 of $2,655,281.93, This state- meont ehows that while thero waaa vory consid- erablo incroaso in the tax on spirits withdrawn from bond and on export spirit stamps, there was quite o Jarge falling off in tho rocelpts from brandy, the special taxes of dealera and recti- flore, stamps, other than tax-paid stamps, and cortain sources ropealed by act of Juue'G, 1872, Tho decrease in the tax on brandy is owing Ina groat part to the vartial failure of the fruit crop 101878, . A glance at tho recoipts from this souroe for the last fonr yesrs exbibits the fino- tuation to which this species of tax is subjeat. Yhus, in 1870, the returns ou brandy iworo 8011,915 ; in 1871, $1,236,000 ; in 1872, 8644,849 ; in 1878, 214,646 ; in 1874, £536,681. The annual product varies with the sunual yield of frmt from which 1t is distilled. BPEOIAL TAXES, Tho apparont loss in tho spocial taxes of dsale ers and reotifiors is due to the fact that aince the adoption of the system of paying specinl faxes Ly stamps, theso taxes have been collectod & lit- tlo earlicr each succooding year: Formerly, a large part of theso taxos was returned in July and August, scarcoly any before’ May 1, whon they becams dus. Now the timo of payment isto a largo uxtent anticipated, as tho following tablo will show 1 The recolpts from special taxes now on the tax ilat were 144,573, abiout the averago of the 1eceipts for threo or four montha provious, In April, 1878, thoy incrossod to 850,988, and in April, 1674, to $2,139,080. Thua $432,016 more woro roturnad in Aprll, 1873, and 1,594,467 more in April, 1874, and 'collactions 'which wero formerly made in tho first quarter of tho flacal yoar aro now returnod in_the last rfimrznr of the Yoar immediatoly proceding’it. This belog the case, o more correct mothod probably of acor- talning the incroase or docreaso of the re- ceipts from special taxes would be by -n comparigon by special tax yoars. Buch & comparigon of tho reccipla from zooti- flers and dealers in liquora for the specinl tax for tho years cnded Apu1l 30, 1878 and 1874, ehows that instead of thore boing & decreass of $064,187, as nEpum from a comparison by fiscal years in the above table, thero was an actual ju- creaso of §700,413 from those Lo sourcos alone, ‘What is horo saul concerning the special taxos of rectifiors and doalers is also applicable to ail other spocial taxes. .
