The bill provides that there gha!l be deducted from the total amount of the annual receipts from customs duties five per cent annually for twenty years. This amount is to ‘be appropriated to the building of docks and piers of stone, or other substantial material. The secont section of the bill designates the Secretary of the ‘Treasury, the Governor of New York, the Collector of the Port of New York and the Mayors of New York and Brooklyn as a board to superintend the outlay of the appropriation. Mr. Robinson estimates that on a basis of $100,000,000 Income from customs duties per annum ‘at the port of New York, $6,000,000 would be secured for the purpose named in his bill. In twenty years there would be, $10,000,000, which, if judiciously expended, would be suMicient to build such docks and pliers as are to be seen at Liverpool, England. * Constitutionality of the Legal Tender Act. No consultatioushas yet been held by the Judges to the work as a rule, but during the war did not en- large the amount, and the missions stood at the close of the war as they had at the beginning, and at the close there was @ surplus of $480,000. When the General Committee met in 1868 they were io debt and the general appropriations were larger. They are now in debt a little over $100,000—a loan, on which interest is being paid.
