As announced in the HERALD of Friday last, in consequence of the absence of the Rev. Brothers Patrick and Paulian, President and Director of Manhattan College, the commencement was pest- ned till September. Yesterday the closing ex- ercises by the De La Salle Club were held on the terrace in front of the institution before a large \ pnd most select audience. The day was o fine one, and the bright, warm pun overhead, peeping in through the tree tops nd throwing its light upon the flowers and green »sherbage beneath, gave a certain beauty and vi- ity to a Spot possessed. of many peculiar scenic antages, ‘ar along the grand drive in front of the College pnd skirting its grounds a long line of brilliant juipages was drawn up, whose occupants— Sar women and interested cicerones of the other ne up a picture most charming to eho On the stage, which was appropriately decked arith nationai emblems and hauzings, sat the mem- ra of the Club.

J. Lavelle appeared on the platform to discourse upon “Political Philanthropy.’ This ‘was a sharp arraignment of the old metuods of in- \ {ternational charity and an exposé of the abuses of lic charities. A poetic selection from the “Album” followed. (It was read by Mr. J. J, Grady, with considerable lan, and was warmly applauded, ‘= The “Light Cavairy” overture by the orchestra receded a debate on the question of the ad- ‘antages of compulsory education. M. N. Messrs.

BOUTWELL’S GRATITUDE TO BUTLER WasHineton, June 29, 1873, Secretary Richardson’s Financial Pro- gramme tor July. Secretary Richardson has directed the Assistant Treasurer at New York to give notice that during. the month of July he will sell one million gold on the first, second, fourth and fifth Thursdays each, and one and a half million on the third Toursday, and that he will purchase half a million bonds on the third Wednesday of the motth. In all, he will Sell $5,500,000 gold and buy $500,000 bonds, The financial programme announced for July by the Secretary of the Treasury creates some sur- prise, as the purchase of bonds 1s so dispropor- | tioned by the sale of gold. July begins a new fiscal year, when the appropriations of the last Congress became available, and for Weeks past the Secretary has been accumulating @ currency reserve with which to meet the demands that may be made on the Treasury after to-morrow. It was understood last week that whatever the sale of gold mfgbt be the purchase of bonds would be very small. The first programme was to sell $10,000,000 and pur- chase $1,000,000 of bonds, but it was changed on account of the large currency balance m the Treasury at the close of business yesterday. The Secretary expects to have during July a currency balance of $10,000,000, which will enable the De- partment to meet every demand without using any portion of the $44,000,000 reserve. The Payment of the Geneva Award. Gentlemen connected with the financial opera- tions of our government are fully acquainted with the measures of the British government tor paying the Geneva award; and while they are indisposed to communicate the particulars do not deny the general correctness of the accounts heretofore pubilshed that the money is to be realized in this country by the presentation of flve-twenty bonds to the amount of fifteen and a half millions of dol- lars, There are several ways in which this govern- ment could be satisfied, One by the procuring of gold certificates and another by a certificate of deposit showing that that amount of coin is in the Treasury Of tye government, subject to the order of the United States. The Seoretary of State, on re- ceiving this as an equivalent ior the money, could formally transfer it to the Treasury Department, without the needless risk and trouble of paying the money itself, in bulk, at the Department of State. Many persons-claiming their shares of the award have not, it appears, yet learned that Congress, at the last session, passed an act providing that the money shalt be used to redeem, so far as it may, the public debt of the United States, by being in- vested in the five per cent registered bonds, to be held subject to the future disposition of Congress. A Proclamation by the President, The President's proclamation has been pre- pared to be issued on the 1s¥ of July, announcing the going into effect on that day of articles trom 18 to 25 inclusive of the Treaty of Washington, the necessary legislation having been adopted on the Imperial Parliament of Great Britain, the Legisla- ture of Canada ang Prince Edward’s {sland on the one side, and by the Congress of the United States on the other. Boutwell Working to Secure the Massa- chusetts Governorship for Butler, The arrival here late last evening of Senator Boutwell, in company with Secretary Richardson, has given rise to much speculation. It is well known among the friends of both Senator Boutwell and General Butler that the latter was to have all of the Senator's influence when he again entered the field for the gubernatorial nomination. To this end itis said Mr. Boutwell visits Washington to secure the Treasury and Post Office Department Influence in Massachusetts, The Custom House, Internal Revenue and Postal service, and the large force employed by the government in the con- struction of public buildings in the State, it is ex- pected, will give Mr. Butler the strength necessary to make his nomination certain. The Expiration of the Franking Privi- lege—Retorms Proposed by the Post- master fieneral, To-morrow promises to be a sort of jubilee day at the Post OMce Department, which, despite hot weather and a fearful eruption of the surrounding streets due to a lowering of grades, has been a scene of great activity for the past week or two, The franking privilege expires at midnight, and the Postmaster General is indisposea to give the an- cient abuse an hour's grace, so that if any franked packages are put into the Post Office here on Tues- day morning they are likely to go without ceremony to the waste room or the dead letter office, accord- ing to the nature of their contents. Mr. Creswell is in @ justifiable state of elation at his victery over the privilege to which Congress clung as long as it could with any show of respect for public opinion, but he is conscious of a weighty responsibility growing out of his pledges of what he would do for the postal service of the country if Congress would take away the incubus of the frank. After. all, the expense of transporting franked packages was not the main, but only an incidental complaint of the Postmaster General against the franking system. The waste and eXtravagance in printing thousands upon thou- sands of costly documents every year that the recipients did not care for enough to pay bare cost ofeither printing or postage was not a matter within the proper cognizance of the Postmaster General, and he never alluded to it, though the subject was not lost to sight in consequence of his abstention. But he dia complain grievously that it was impossible to have the mails as swiftly and surely carried and distributed as the true interests of the public re- quired, while a system lasted under which, with- out warning or regularity, tons of matter were liable to be thrown on the postal service at any time, deranging existing plans and contracts, and inducing in persons empioyed in transporting, assorting and delivering the mails, a dangerous disrespect for much of the matter passing through their hands, One of the most powerful restraints of late years upon serious abuses of the franking privilege, except such as were due to political campaigns, was the belief possessed by persons who had Congressional franks at command that franked packages were not treated as care- fully as those which were postpaid. Expe- rience, however, has proved that open packages at low rates of postage have suffered through the indifference of the postal empioyés to all but closed letters and packages, It is now the intention of the Postmaster General to make the transmission and delivery of newspapers, books, pamphlets, samples and other large low rated matlable matter as swift and certain as that of the higher rated sealed matter, while every effort will at the same time be used to simplify amd shorten the routes aad processes by which the mails are carried and delivered, Already the force of letter carriers has been increased at every iree delivery office which has made good the claim of advantage or neces- sity, and the provisions of the free delivery law itself have been applied with great liberality, 80 a8 to give the benefits of the law to cities of less than twenty thousand inhabitants by taking im the suburbs, and giving the latter in return for the merely nominal loss of their Post Offices, the free delivery and the two cent rate for local letters. New post and money order offices will be established as fast as they can be with advantage, and “special attention will at once be given to bettering the railroad sex Vice, 98 being the chicl medium of domestic vogal_ communications, Next year the ocean service will be taken in hand to see if the cherished plan of a daily mail to Europe cannot be effected, Additional sorting and delivering clerks will be granted to the larger offices for the sake of expediting the interior business thereof. The Postmaster General says he will bring the postal service closer up than ever to the business and soctal needs of the people, if the latter stand out against any and all attempts to restore the franking nuisance. Those most inti- mate with him say that ail these salutary changes . are to prepare the way for postal telegraphy, to which Mr. Creswell still gives his best efforts in aggregating facts to make the project acceptable. The Coinage of Bullion a Check to the | Exportation of Gold, After an interruption of four weeks work will be resumed at the San Francisco Mint on Thursday morning next. During the stoppage extensive ad- ditions and improvements have been mage tn the gold coining machinery, all of which it has been ordered shall be in perfect running order by the 8d of July. Under orders from the Treasury Department an extra torce is to be engaged, and the presses will be run day and night to their fwiest capacity until further orders, The object of this, it is understood, Is to detain in this country as long as possible the large yields of the California and Nevada mines which have been shipped to England since work was stopped, and which has continued, under the im- pression among foreign holders that the accumula- tion of bullion in San Francisco would test the capacity of the mint fur weeks tocome. The ex- ceedingly low rate now charged for coining bullion makes it desirable to holders to convert itinto hard cash in this country, saving the expense of ship- ment and insurance, as well as the loss of interest in transporting it so long a distance; and it is believed by Treasury officials that the orders to run the machinery on double time will check further shipments, at least to any large amount. The Report of the American Border Com- mission—The Removal of the Kicka poos. Thomas P. Robb, President of the United States Commission to Texas, yesterday presented to the Secretary of State the report and records pertain- ing to the work for which the Commission was organized. The scope of the repore was fully and accurately given in these despatches two weeks ago. All the recommendations in the preliminary report have been carried out by the government. Aside from that, the situation remains unchanged on the frontier. The Vommissioners do not believe the Kickapoos can be peaceftilly removed to their reservation in the Indian Territory. They know the Mexican government to be privately opposed to their removal—whatever else may be the tenor of their representations to the Special Commission sent out by the Interior Department to bring them to the United States—for the reason that the Mex- ican merchants and rancheros vaiue too highly the depredations of this lawless band upon the Texan frontier. It isa source of too much profit to allow the Kickapoos to quietly leave Mexico. The Commissioners did not take up this subject in their report. ‘West Point and Annapolis. The class of cadets at the West Point Military Academy which graduated this month having been commissioned as second lieutenants in the army, the corps organization of the cadets at the Acad- emy was destroyed, and to reorganize the battalion for the ensuing year new officers have been ap- pointed, in accordance with the usual custom, the new appointees having been selected according to merit. The list of new ofMcers, having been ap- proved by the Secretary of War, is as follows :— To be Captains—Cadets Russell Thayer, M. 1. Geary, J. L. Wilson and F, M. Sibley. Adjutant—Cadet George L. Turner, Quartermaster—Cadet 0. M. Rowell. Lieutenanis—Uadets J.M. Symons, C. H. Calva- nis, George L. Anderson, F. S. Rice, E. B. Robert- son, E, E. Hardin, Lotus Niles, H. M.

Rr Smith and — Mann. Sergeants—Ed. Hall, V. H. Bridgman, E. P. An- drews, J. M. Jones, Eugene GriMn, Rk. P. P. Wain- wright, T. F. Davis, Willard Young, H. D, Hunting- poe R. K. Evans, G. V. Backus, Jr., F. E. Elton- head, Corporals—E. E. Dravo, C. H, Bonested Payne, G.A. Garlington, A. 5. Bacon, H. D. Boruss, we Wilson, SM. Rains, J. F, Guilfoyle, Granger Ad- ams, G. A. Webstor, John Pitcher, 0. 'L, Hammond, Hamilton Rowan, Herman Dowa, 0. 8. Hall, G. An- drews, Eben Swiit, E..K. Gale and J, M. Baker. During ‘the term jor admission to the Acade- my as cadets, which closed this month, about 140 candidates were examined. Of this number 85 passed both the Academic and Medi- cal Boards, and were accepted ; 55 were rejected on account of deficiéncy in education or physical ina- bility; 12, who had been nominated, did not report for examination. The Boards will meet again on the 25th of August by which time the members of Congress who nominated the applicants who failed will have been notified to make new nomivations of candidates to appear tor examination on thatdate. The twelve who did not report in June will also be examined in August, providing they can show a sufficient excuse tor their absence from the first examination. At the Naval Academy, Annapolis, the whole number of candidates who reported for examination for ap- pointment as cadet midshipmen up to the 15th inst., when the Board adjourned, was 83, Of this number 44 were found to be qualified and will be admitted, 32 were found deticient and 7 withdrew during the examination, The Repre- sentatives who nominated those who failed, as well as those who withdrew, will be notified immedi- ately by the Secretary to nominate new candidates to be examined in September. The Tobacco Tax. Last year when the tobacco tax was consolidated at twenty cents it was thought that the internal revenue receipts from this source for the fiscal year now closing would show a decrease of at least five or six millions us compared with former years; but instead of that amount the figures show that the decrease is only about eight hundred thousand dollars, or about one-seventh of the estimate. Under the old law, tt will be remembered, the tax was thirty-two cents and sixteen cents per pound, and Commissioner Douglass recommended a censol- idation of the tax at twenty-four cents per pound. Congress, however, fused it at twenty cents, and the result is highly satisfactory. Under the new Jaw everything works harmoniously and there is scarcely any trouble between the anthorities and dealers, as the law 1s simple and easily understood by all. In settling up the accounts of Assessors of internal revenue before those officers retired Commissioner Dougiass ascertained that in some instances Assistant Assessors had charged for double duty when they acted as gaugers, and he immediately directed that but one salary be allowed them, even if they had performed double duty, though in all cases he allowed them the greater amount of the two. By this action several thousand dollars were saved, though much to the disgust of the Assessors, Who expected the doubie pay. Instructions to Our New Minister to Japan. Minister Bingham has not yet recetvod his final instructions, apart from those of a general char- acter which are printed and supplied to all ouf Ministers, These give directions as to the care of the archives and the manner tn which oficial com- munications are to be addressed to the Department of State. No two or more subjects are to be em- braced in the same despatch, The Minister is forbidden to keep for his own private use copies of such communications, He is also admonished as to speech making on public occastons and at pri- vate parties, his remarks to be of a general character, avoiding such points as would give occasion to unfriendly comment, and he is reminded of the impropriety of furnishing from the records of the Legation information for the press or for merely individual benefit, In other words, he is to guard the records as belonging exctusively to our government, The instructions in effect admonish him to preserve the strictest courtesy toward the government to which he ig accredited.
