As we mentioned in yesterd: Star, the im- Portant report of the Secretary of the Treasury Was presented to Congress yesterday: Lue report enters upon a recapitulation of the statements contalued in the Secretary's report to Congress at the special session in July last, and informs that bedy iu consequence of a deficiency in the revenue, and the augmented expenditures for the War and Navy Departments, assumed With 2 view toa short and decisive contest, the estimates of that period are too low by about $215.904.127 and some odd cents. Iu other words, the estimat~s for the fiscal year ending 30th June, 1262, of $315,519,551.57, should have been $532,- 491,009 55 In view of thisexpenditure the Secretary thinks retrenchment and reform very necessary, and the strictest supervision of contractors. He recom- mends an increase of the duty on tea, coffee and sugar, and of the direct tax in the oyal States to 220,000,000. The Secretary thinks that Congress has the power to issue a national ee currency, which shall supersede that of all local ins'itutions, but a8 possible disasters outweigh the probable bene- fits of the plan, he feels himself constrained to forbear recommending its adoption. Another plan remains for examination. Its Principal fea- , tures are (Ist) a circulation of notes bearing a com- mon impression and authenticated by a common sutbority; (2d) the redemption of those notes by ; the assoctations and institutions to which they = be delivered for issue; and (3d) the secutity of that redemption by the pledze of United States stocks and an adequate division of specie. | ‘The notes thus issued and secured would, in } bis judgment, form the safest curre: cy this coun- try ever enjoyed; while their receivability for all Government dues, except customs, would make them, wherever payable, of equzl value, as a cur- ev, in every part of the Union. The large amecunt of specie now in the United States, reach- ing 2 total ¢f not less than two hundred und sev- enty-five millions of dollars, will easily support payments of duties in coin, while these paymests end ordinary demands will aid in retaining this Specie in the couutry asa solid basis bith of cir- culation and loans ‘The secretary entertains the belief that, ae the result of this plan, the whole country, except a limited amount of foreign ooln, would efter the lapse of two or three years, bear the impress of the nation, whether in coin or notes; while the amount of the latter, alweys easily ascertainable. and of course always gene- rally Rnewn, would not be ik: to be increased beyond the real wants of business Io review of these projects the report says “If the secretary bas omitted the discussion of the question of the constitutional power of Con- gress to put this plan into operation, itis because no aro umeut is necessary to establish the proposi- elue of coin includes the power to regulate the currency of the country, or the collateral roposi- tion that the power to effect the end incf¥des the from the Supreme Court | peer 5 adopt the necessary and expedient mean: The report sets out in a tabular form the farther loans required Under the conviction that the war will be ended by next midsummer, the total of actual and estimated expenditures will be $543.406,422. But should the war be prolonged, the estimates for the next fiscal year would attain, with the preceding, + total of #654.9.0,920. An exbibit of the public debt under this view of the case makes it about sixty-five millions on the Ist July, 1860; about ninety millions on the Ist duly, 1861; about five hundred millions on the Ist July, 1562; and about nine hundred millions on the 1st July, 1663. The report enters upon a discussion of commer- clal operations in reference to Southern atfairs the operations of the mint, and otber gener: matters pertaining to the Department.
