They baye not fallen off from the es- timates as much as was expected thoy wouid from the effects of the panic. The receipts of the year will be suficient for all purposes, pro- vided Congress does not appropriate money lergely in excess of the estimates. The Treas ury department's estimates for the fiscal year “74, were $11,339,358 less than was appropriated by Congress, and £1%,000.000 more than the es- timates for the preceding year. The estimates from ail the departments and bureaus, with the exception of the public printer, are now in pos- session of the Treasury department. They will geregate about the sime as last year, namely : about $161,000,000, irrespective of the perma- nent appropriation of $117,305,013, not now to be acted on, for the payment of the interest on the public debt. THE REPORT OF THE SIXTH AUDITOR to the Secretary of the Treasury shows that the amount of the quarterly accountsof postmasters settled during the year was $22,851,065. The number of changes of postmasters, reestablish- ment and discontinuance of post offices, amounts to 10,5 The present number of unts of postinasters is 32,065, being an increase of 1,741 .' In'the department of foreign ails the amount of quarterly accounts equals $1,900,346.

The Utes were loth to consent to this arrangement, but the Commissioner assured them that if their people in New Mexico did not move to Colorado, the overnment would compel them to dose. The "tes leave to-morrow morning, provided the Arrapahoe delegation arrive here to-night with Ouray’s only son, who was captared som twelve years ago. ‘He is now about ninetsen years of age, and having lived so long with thi Arrapahoes may elect to remain with them instead of going with his father. Just before they left the Commissioner's office a delegation from the Maryland Institute Exposition in Baltimore, consisting of Hon. Carroll Spence, Isaac S. George, I. P. Perine, Samuel W. Register, Samuel E. Ewalt, and W. H. Per- kins, called to request the Indians to attend the exhibition to-morrow. The Indians, however, declined the invitation, saying they’ had been long enough in Washington and wanted to “go west.” They will go to Boston to confer with the Unitarian Society under whose charge they are, and will stop one day in Philadelphia and one day .in New York. From Boston they will return direct to their reservation in Colorado.

Mr. Pike is, or has been, U. S. consu! to Mauritius, and this ptable volume is the result of his observation® during his residenc: there.

Tue Frenca Crisis—fhe Bonapartiste an’ Radicals.—The New York Tribune says :—Pri- vate letters received here yesterday indicate that the movement for a fusion between the Bonapartists and the radicals in France is par suing its course, independent of that genera! ridicule with which the correspondence between Mr. Portalis and Prince Napoleon was at first (Dicer It is said that M. Portalis and hix ‘iends feel confident of returning the Prince for one or more circumscriptions, in the event of any general elections being held. There an uneasy rumor in Paris that there are secret clauses embraced in the treaty of Frankfort by which Germany can reinvade France in case of a French armament in excess of a given figure which has been already passed, and that thi: will be done in case of the accession of a legiti mist king. This report, whether true or not excites a certain restlessness, and helps to pre vent the accomplishment of the monarchica programme. It is also stated positively that M Phiers, on being addressed by M. Portalis ir regard to his movement, answered civilly that they were both working for the same ends These facts and rumors taken together, though they are by no means conclusive as to the pr: ticability of the proposed fusion, still show tha there are many people in Parts who consider i! by no met absurd or impossible.

Notonly ¢ but unde crime w: Lepine, prison awaiting punishment. But Riel is free. How the government is to receive him is a ques tion which must give them some trouble. He has at his back a strong French inflaence which they do not wish tooffend, It seems, too, that s promise of pardon to the Manitoba rebels has been made, but has not been fulfilled. The ditti- culty, so it is said, is that the amnesty was promised by Lord Lisgar and Sir Clinton Mur- loch in their own right, whereas the Queen has reserved to herself the prerogative of pardon ‘The English government appears undisposed to gront the amnesty. But if the Canadian gov- ernment desires to pardon Riel and his confe!- erates, at his not playing the game ot 8; eu. low and Jerkins, there can be notrouble im Be curing an amnesty from the Queen. Tue DeatH or Jouy C. Heenan.—A tele- gram announces the death of Jonn C. Heenan the Benecia Boy. The deceased was a New Yorker, and went to California at an early age, where he worked at a trade. He fought a prize ight there, and took the name of the Benicia Boy, from the town of Benicia, which was named after the daughter of Gen.’ Agramonte, who lies buried on its topmost hill. He first be- came notorious by his fight with John Morris sey, in which he was vanquished. He after- wards fought Tom Sayers for the championship of England, but the fight was a drawn one; af- terwards he was beaten by Tagn King, owing, it 's alleged, to his being dragged betore the fight from the effects of which itis said he never re overed. In spite of his magnificent physique, ehas been for some time suffering with con- umption, and had gone west for his health, but without receiving any benefit from the trip. Heenan was married some years ago to a pop- ular actress, Adah Isaacs Menken.

AWN UNFORTUNATE BUT Honest PosTmast- ER.—The case ot James L.. Dunving, postaast~1 at Atlanta, is a hard one. Mr. Dunning ha» beld the oflice for two years, and is a tried and honest public servant. Some years ago hi- money clerk, McLaughlin, absconded with » \arge ‘amount of funds, and the postmaster ha since been stinting himself of luxuries and com forts to make up the theft. He bad aimost squared bis accounts when his son, James Dan ning, McLaughlin's successor at the money or der desk, ran away, leaving a deficit of #6,000. and Dunning, the aged postmaster, declare- that he will pay every cent if it takes him unti the end of his days. If Mr. Dunning were a- vigilant as he appears to be honest, his troubles mm ght not be so successive and overwhelming, and he might enjoy comforts and luxuries in- stead of others enjoying them at his expense.

As yet the mo- hey panic bas not caused our merchants to close up shop.” But the Wall street commo- tion bas sent all dry goods down to zero. Our leading merchants have imported largely, their stores are full of fashionable goods and money is scarce. The majority of merchauts are wealthy, and do busiggss upon a firm basis, in a strictly legitimate manner. Their large surplus capital enables them to mect all emergencies arising from a stringency in the money market. Goods are marked down at remarkably low figures, in some instances far below the original cost.
