ReEcEIPTS AND ExPeNDITURES oF THE Post Ovrics DerarrMent Last Ygar..—The fig- ures of the Post Office department for the last fiseal year show the receipts to have been, in round numbers, $23,000,000, and the expendi- tures about 00) ,000, including $725,000 sub- sidles to steamship lines. The year before the receipts were tile less than $22,000,000, and the expenditures $26,500,000, while the increas? of expenditures was over nine per cent., against only seven per cent. the last year. The receipts and expenditures correspond very closely with the estimates submitted by the department for the fiscal year, the estimated expenditures hay- ing been $27,500,000, and the estimated receipts little less than $25,000,000. The actual expen- sbtures were $1,500,000 in excess of the estimate, while the actual receipts slightly exceeded the estimates. The estimated defi $4,700,000; but even with the unexpected ex- penditures the real deficiency is only a few undred thousand dollars greater, being about $5,000,000, GOVERNMENT INTERPERENCE SoLiciTEeD.— The Secretary of the Interior has received a communication from the attorney of a man named Beck, in the Indian territory, praying for the intervention of the government to pre-- vent his client being tried for murder by the Cherokees. It appears that Beck was one of the posse of the United States marshal in Ar- kansas, who, about a year and a half ago, went into the Indian country to arrest certain crimi- nals. In wtmpares ser make these arrests the marshal was ri and a bloody fight ensued, resulting in the killing of several men on both ‘he Indians ve recently arrested . to try him formurder. As there was and is much feeling relative tothe action of the marshal, it is probable that Beck will be summarily executed unless the ment should interfere in some ya seem to show the necessity for a court in the Indian country to take cognizance of all similar cases, in order to avoid 4 conflict between the Indian authorities and the govern- ment hereafter. see: AT THE TRIAL OF MARSHAL Bazatne yes- terday, he reiterated his assertion that he was Bot informed ot MacMabon’s advance until S0th of Avi In reference to this and several other points he offered affidavits in sup} bis Leyes bog k Groner W.

Farewell Speech of Gov-Shephera. The members of the Evangelical Alliance yesterday, after leaving Willards’ Hall, marched in double line, headed by Governor Shepherd and Secretary Harrington, to the {Executive Mansion to pay their respects to President € Arriving at the White House, the Washington members of the Alliance, dropping from the column as it entered, formed a double column in the corridors of the mansion, through which the visitors passed to the Blue room where the President of the United States stood, surrounded by the members ot his cabinet, while Mrs. Grant, with the ladies of the mem- bers of the cabinet, occupied the southern por- tion of the room. ‘Advancing to the center of the room, Dr. Tiffany awaited the entrance of the entire delegation, aud in a few be 2 pe debe remarks presentde them to the President, and requested all present to unite in a brief prayer to be dpisvered by the Dean of Canterbury. INVOOATION BY THE DEAN OP CANTERBURY. O our Almighty God, we, Thy unworthy: ser- vants, present here in this great country, humbly pray that Thou wilt bless this land where we have been co hospitably received. Grant that those great questions that are being worked out here for the benetit of the whole human race may be visited with Thy blessing. We pray that this visit of ours may be pro- ductive of a larger measure of peace and good will, both among nations and individuals; that the Christian religion, benceforward, may have a more direct influence upon us, and that it may bind all the members of the great human family, whether in their national, their domes- tic, or their civil life, closer together. Grant that we may feel this power and influence more and more, and be able to put its great principles into, fores. This prayer we offer unto Thee— a prayer for more peace and good will upon earth—in the name of Thy son, who came down to earth to show His love for us perishing men— Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. PRESIDENT GRANT’S WELCOME. ‘The President said: It affords me very great pleasure to welcome this Aliiance to the capital of this great nation, whic I feel is the freest of ill nations to work out the problem of your mis- sion. [Applanse.) ‘The members o( the Alliance were then s2 erally introduced to the President by Gorge H Stuart, eeq., of Philadelphia, and the ceremony ot hand-shaking haying been gone throagh, Rey. Narayan Sheshadri, of Bombay, was called upon for some remarks. He sud ‘he was very much struck with whit he had se this country, and especially with the recer the President had given them. It appcared to him that the Americans carried out their spirit ot Indep ce in everything, and he was happy to see that in free America there was full religious liberty carried ont in all circum- stances and relations of life. He hoped t time would come when such a spirit would pre- vail in bis native land. MR. BEECHER’S PEW WonDs. Rey. Henry Ward Beecher was then called upon and said: [also have a profound respect for the President of the United States, as he is almost the only man in this nation who thinks a good deal buican hold his peace. {Laughter and applanse.| Rey. Matteo Prochet, of Genoa, was then called upon, and alter stating the ditticulties he had experienced in being requested to speak, said he would nevertheless do so in the name of his country, now falling in step with tree America. He could only express here the wish that Italy and America should go on arm in arm proclaiming ciyil and religious liberty to the whole world. Prof. Christlieb, of Germany, was then calle? for, and said he had heard of the mau whe was asked to make a speech, but declined. Upon beimg urged to say just two words, he did 49, and those words were, ‘No, sir.” (Laughter.] THE NIGHT SERVICES Last night services were held in the Metro- politan Methodist Episcopal, First Presby- terian, Trinity Episcopal and Congregational churches, which were densely crowded with au ditors, About thirty different speakers of various nationalities delivered brief addresses, Rev. Narayan Sheshadri speaking in three of the churches, and the Dean of Canterbury and Dr. Christlieb each in two of them; the remarks generally being on Christian unanimity and the growing spread of Protestantism. Key. E. F. Cook, of Paris, said he had never before seen a series of meetings so wonderful and extraordinrry. As to all the capitals in the world he would give tbe palm to Washington, for this is the eapital of a free country. Here the government resides, Congress assembles, and the laws are made; and where & powerful impulse to liberty and freedom is given. Rey. Dr. Christlieb said he understood that Washington had been called the city of magnid- cent distances; bat as the Evangelical Alliance had a little moral power, they proposed to ex- ercise it by bringing their Christian brother scattered allover the world, a little closer to- gether, thus destroying the distances by which they were separated. Bishop Simpson spoke of the influence of the Christian religion, saying that the old and pop- ulous nations of the Old World, including China and Japan, are now bending toward the Caris- _ nations as if to save them from destrac- jon. Rey. Mr. Marston, of London, delivered an earnest address on the great influence of the English tongue in promoting the strength aud growth of Christianity. Many of the delegates alluded to their recep- tion by the President yesterday afternoon, one of them, an English divine, remarking that he felt when he shook the hand of the President that he shook hands with the whole American nation. The same speaker said that when the President welcomed the Alliance he welcomed the representatives of all nations and of all Christian religions under the sun. TRE DISTINGUISHED Visions.

The members of the Evangelical Alliance left Willard’s Hotel at 9 o'clock this morning and proceeded in street cars and omnibuses to the Capitol and assembled in the rotund, py suant to previous arrangement. Quite a la number of persons had gathered there, aad among them many of the gentler sex, to get a look at the distinguished visitors. Afterall had assembled, Dr. Sunderland asked that all join in singing ‘*Coronation,” and the united voices of the whole delegation MADE THE DOME RING, the singing being rendered with a hearty good will. All then passed out the east door on the portico, singing as they marched the hymn ‘Lord, when Thou didst ascend on high, ten thousand angels filled the sky.” On reaching the steps of the eastern front, Rev. Dr. Tiffany announced that Mr. Alexander rdner, who was present with his apparatus, would take A PHOTOGRAPHIC VIEW of the group, and requested that they would arrange themselves uncovered, and keep quiet for a picture. On account of the motions of many in the FoNR: the first and second trials were tailures, but the third one was pronounced to be all righ Dr. Sanderland then requested all to join in singing the hymn: “Jesus shall reign where'r the sun dees his successive journeyrun.” This was sung while all remained standiag uncoy- ered, and all joined hands and closed the sing- ing with a verse commencing “Blest be the tle that binds our hearts in christian love.” A PRAYER was then offered up by Rev. Dr. Rodgers, of New York, at the close of which all repeated the Lord's prayer. Rey. Dr. Marston, of London, then rehearsed the Protestant church creed, all joining in, and at the close singing the doxology: +Praise God from whom all biessings flow.” Before recntering the Capitol building Rev. Dr. Tiffany announced to the delegates that the hote] bills of all the members trom foretg countries were paid, and that they would give themselves no trouble about the settlement ot their expenses in Washington, as arrangements had been made for the same. ‘Three cheers were proposed for Dr. Tiffany, and given with a vim. ‘The Doctor then announced that AN INVITATION had been extended to the delegates by Governor Shepherd to attend a banquet at 1 o'clock to- day, at Willard’s hotel, and reauested all to be present. Some one proposed three cheers for the Presi- dent of the United States, which were given, and THRER CHERRS FOR THE WHOLE WORLD. The delegation then reentered the Capitol, and were shown to the various rooms, including the library, old hall of the House of Representa- tives, new hall, marble room, Supreme Court, Senate chamber, the Presiden nd Vice Pres- ident’s rooms, Kc. The pictures, statuary, an: other objects of interest were explained to the visitors by Reva. Dr. Sunderland, Tiffany, Hall and others belonging to the city. REY. NARAYAN SHESHADRI, the Brahmin convert, from Bombay, seemed to be the object of much interest to the crowd on account of the peculiarity of fis dress and his white turban, After going through all the rooms of interest in the Capitol, the visitors were escorted through the grounds of the west froat, where they took omnibuses for the Smithsonian Insti- tution, Agricultural department, Patent Office, and other points of interest, and spent some time im sight-seemg. Banquet at Willard’s, After visiting the Smithsonian institute, Agricultural department, Patent office, Medt- cal museum, and Treasury department, the visitors returned to Willard’t hotel, where they were introduced individually to Governor Shepherd in the east parlor, and social conver- sation followed previous to their entering the dining room. Rev. Dr. Tiffany called upon the following to act as a special escort to the Gov- ernar to the table: Dean of Canterbury, Bishop Simpson, Dr. Schaff, Rey. H. Stuart, Dr. Rigg, Dr. Dorner, Key. A. Belger, Rev. Mr. Marston, Lord Alfred Churchill, Rey. Mr. Ar- net. The visitors proceeded to the dining room and were seated at the table, Governor Shep- herd at the head, when the Governor called ne the pastor of his church (Rev. Dr. Mitch- ell) to offer a blessing; after which all par- took of a most bountiful and elegant repast, spread out on two tables running parallel and ost the entire length of the room. * FAREWELL SPEECH OF GOV. BHEHHERD. At the close of the entertainment, Governor Shepherd arose and said : 1 am honored, gentlemen, by your presence as my guests to-day. Although, from want of time, the entertainment offered you may not be commensurate with the occasion, your welcome is none the leas hearty and sincere. Your visit to the seatof government, gentle- men, will long be remembered by our people, ‘and if you will take with you as agreeable recol- lections of Washington as you leave among us of yourselves, we will be titled indeed. e have welcomed you as leaders in the great movement for the regeneration of our race: we will part with you with wishes of God speed in the noble work which claims the best energies of your great minds and noble hearts. Our re- gret is that your stay with us is so brief; our joy that, though brief your sojourn, you haye in- spired our people with new zeal in the inter- ests of the christian church. Allow me to conclude with this sentiment :— “ The Evangelical Alliance—May its results be equal to the grandeur of its conception and the nobleness of its ends.”? At almost every sentence there was loud ap- plause by the Beet Rey. Dr. Tiffany then said that the Metropol- itan branch of the Alliance desired to return thanks to the Governor for his kind reception to the delegates. He then introduced REY. DR. RIG6, OF LONDON, who said he felt hor o-ed at heing called upon to respond to the kind expressions of the Gover- nor.

Phelps, cashier in the treasury department of this state, was arrested in Jersey City yesterday and brought here charged with robbing the state treasury of an amount of money supposed to reach $300,000. The state deposits are divided between five or six banks of this city, and it was the custom for the banks to send to the comptroller’s office on the first of every month a duplicate of the treasurer's bank book, which parted through the hands of the general book- eeper. The banks some time ago complained of this extra labor, and Phelps giving assurance it was entirely unnecessary, the general book- keeper dropped the duplicate set without the knowledge either of the comptroller or treasa- rer; thus but one set of books was left to be ma- nipulated. The general book-keeper was next induced to accept in some instances the state- ment of the cashier of the balance in some one of the banks without producing the bank books. Phelps then charged a large eum to a bank, which its own statement (which was called for a few days ago by the treasurer) showed it did not have. It appears he aiso retained the cash upon tome of the drafts remitted to him by county treasurers. ‘These drafts could not le- gally be cashed without the endorsement of the treasurer or his deputy, and any bank taking these drafts upon the endorsement of the cash ier only is liable and will be compelled to re- fund to the state. The treasurer is of the opinion that the state cannot be the loser; that when his operations were about to be revealed he (Phelps) fied the state and wrote a note to the treasurer, admitting that his accounts were not entirely correct. Mr. Raines followed him to Jersey City, and in an interview which took place Phelds claimed that, if allowed his iberty two or three months he could re- fund ‘the entire amount. He said he had used the money in speculations in New York, but not in stocks, and would not say definitely to wh: pone he had applied it. He also ad- mitted that he had accomplices, but wouid not give their names. He claimed that the money was still largely under his control, and that he would soon be able to refund $10),000 of the amount. He desired to be left alone, that he might be free to obtain and restore the money, and propositions were also made from legal sources to adjust the matter on some basis of compromise. The treasurer, however, would not assent to any arrangement which either set- tled the offense or permitted the offender to re- main atlarge, He put a detective on the track of Phelphs, obtained the necessary papers from the governor, and yesterday had Pheiphs arrested in Jersey Ciy and brought here. PHELPS FORMERLY IN WASHINGTON. Atpany, October 15 —— was appointed cashier by Treasurer Raines in the spring of 1x2.

The mortuary report thows an increase of four inthe total deaths, three from yellow fever and one from other causes. The total deaths are 51, of which 41 are from yellow fever. From reports from all sources the result shows ao increase in the death Tate, as expected, but a large decrease in new cases. Most of those attacked yesterday hav- ing been waiting on the sick and laboring to the extent of physical exhaustion. It is safely con- cluded that the disease is abating slowly. The reports are very favorable of the cases on the hands of the different committees, and physi- cians say the fever is less malignant.
