[v.rnilel operations of (.treat Britain and f France, and shows hoar superior our e liaaneinring has been to their?*, lie says a 'hat '"it h certain that ii ihe national bank- jf ;ni? system had not existed, and ITnited ? lit'.e* notes had been i^ucd in place of unk notes, the refunding operations here J Scribed and the consequent large re- ti Juction of interest upon the public debt r w-ju'id not have been possible." * The comptroller further states that "the li 'Vemmeut has still outstanding $273,- f: t)*l.3>0 in six per cent#, all of which will i mature in 1351. The refunding of these 1 bonds into fuur per cents, wilt save $10, j 47:1,000 in interest annually. The credit ;{ the Government id now such that it is P cc improbable that long before its ma- ^ : riry the prefleut debt ruay be refunded Y into three and a-half per cent, bond-, ; which id one-half per cent, moro than the rate oi the Engli.-h console, thus saving to ^ t - she Government a large additional c am?'tint of interest." The comptroller gives a succinct and in- r relligent history of resumption ?nd the ^ which promoted it. The circulation on November 1, 1879, is s ?**ti mated to have been as follows: Treasury notes outstanding, $340,t>81,018; Na(i ;i.il bank notes outstanding, $337,181,- V. 413; gold in th^ treasury, less certificate!* beM bv the banks,$157,850,193; silver in d the treasury, 550,078 G2G; coin in the t banks, (October 2) $42,173,741; estimated a amount of coin held by ihe people, $231,- I 47^ 515?total, $1,105,553,504.

' To-night is the tituwse: by Prof. Proc- J lor, the eminent astronomer, for a dis- [ play of falling stare?something like the i tcemoruble display that occured in 1833. * Tim Pn.fujuiii' nrtf irtv tlmt tlia ilSc. i-Uy will occur to-night beyoud doubt. V What he docs say is aa follows: u 'It is expected by nearly all astronotavrs who have given attention to the subJ-ft*, that there will a display of falling "tarn on or about November 27 nest, tr.ough tho night of shower may porhaps tall earlier or later, within a week or ho ither way. The display, should it occur, will poiess, far more interest than any oidinary Dhower of shooting star*, or even than the displays which have been witnessed -?n the night of November 13-14, in 17y0, l&M, I860, and other years. For though we now know that when t these abowcra of l.emides (as the raeteoro November 14-15 ure called) cur, tho earth is passing through 1 !i? track of a comet which is followed by ( uncounted millions of meteors. It was remarked by M. 0. tirruve, at the last meeting of the Herman Astronomical Society, i that no object hus thrown more light on ^ tti.? general nature of cometic bodies than the comet known aa Biela's. I propose * now to give a brief ska:cb of the history 1 o! ttiis luierecting body, and then to conthe reasons why utronomers expect t that during the last week of November, 1S79, there will be a diuplay of shooting | a* th* earth passes through the ( comet's track. BtCLA'd COURT. . in the year 1SJ<> Biela discovered a i cornet, tho path of which was calculated by tmb.i t, h French astronomer, iuati- ] niuch that, according to the usual rule in i *ui h the comet should be called J iHmrurtV, nor. Biota's. It was found to i-?volv? around the sun in a period of 1 about ait and two-thirds years. It was i m?t a conspicutm* bodv?in fact, it has i <eldom been much more than barelv visi- I Vie under the uiost favorable conditions by the nskeil eye. Yet it differed from 1 ir.o t telescopic comets in showing i u >t ouiy u nucleus and a com i. < hut a tail clso, In 1832, 1SS9 and < ISM this comet returned to the earth's neighborhood, aud ou two of theae occasions it was well seen, in IH%) it was so " mated as to U? lost in the sun'c rays, in fact, at every third return astronomers knew ;hat it would be hopeless to search tor the cotuet. Thus it was discovered in IS-B.aud well se?tkTu 1832, but aofc aeon *ud not even looked for iu 1S39. So agaia it was seen iu 18^3 in its calculated place, aud again 18W; but it was not looked for In lskW and 1872 it should bava teen visible, but, as presently will be ex* plained more fully, it fas not ftt#en. jla this present year, IS79, supposing all bad gouo OB M iu the forty preceding year<thecoma would not havo l*eu visible, pualog too near the aan a place in the sky. Aurnnomera h*ve been set to search tor it this vear 1 (But quite fruitlessly) because there were reasons to believe that If aeen at all the comet would not be seen on Ita former trick. But we must not pass to thia part ol the comet's history until the strange! circumstance* connected with former returns ?tid with former expected returns of * the comet to visibility have been briefly 11 considered. 11 A II.VS moPLAV rttOHAHLK. j The next parage of the earth athwart , the track of the comet is the first since that of November 27.1832, during which " a meteor shower could be t*xu*?ctt<d tn no. v cur. The cornet crossed the earth's track, * or passed very near to it, earlv in April fast; and though the interval is consider* ibly larger between then and the end of n N'ovember than elapsed between tho corn- u t'd passage in 1872 and the display of that h rear, yet it in most probable that many mo- a eorie attendants of tho comet will be seen ,, m some nights (or perhaps on several * lights) between November Vo and Decern* a wr 4, and quite possible that a very tine ai howcrmay be seen. The meteors will b iy well worth looking for in any case, h ina?, if they are carefully observed ami ? lountod hour bv hour, astronomers will fr trobably obtain some farther insight into ll he naturoof the processes which lead to g< he dissipation of a cornet and cause its n ?ath to he occupied over a range of many oil Hons of miles by scattered meteoric at- st endanH. To others than Astronomers the fi; oeteors will be full of interest; and i; is d< tot at all unlikely that they will appear in n: uch numbers an to produce an exceeding- b y beautiful display. ? i i . 01 ?

During the year ended June .'W, 1879, 113,440,621 of Internal Revenue taxes v ere collected and paid into the Treasury. 1 he receipts from distilled spirits for the ear 1870, hh com pared with 187*. show an nrroiu-u ftf I ill iitK Tho iiii-mauo, 1 b?a action of spirit* during the fined! year of 879 was 15,780,50s gallons. The increase fthe production ol manufactured tobacco ho lost fiscal year was 12,0JH,S21 pounds, 'he number of cigars and cigarette# w as 94.177,710. The report is very voluminous nd contains a large number of tabulated tatements. v During the past three years 6,!J6a t>erons have been arrested for illict distilling nd 27 officers and employes killed and 13 rounded while engaged iu enforcing the iternai revenue laws. In this connecion the Commissioner says: "It is clear ) my mind thai in some portious of the wintry for a considerable time to come oliantc cannot be placed upon the State 'ourtB for punishing ctti/ons who ccmtnib itirder or assault to murder upon our fficera while engaged in the Dfcffortu&nce f their duties, it seems to me of tho utiodt importance that the United States lould under its own laws and through its wn courts undertake the trial and punihmcut of persona who are guilty of murer aud assault to murder of officers while agaged iu or on account of the poriortn(ice of their official duties, aud I have ><? honor of reuewing the recomtuendaon made in my lust report of the passage f such a law by Congress." The iucreasein the number of legal diandric-", he ways, will materially augment le expense "for ctorekcepers arid will lake it necessary that a deficiency appro- i nation be made lor the present fiscal ear of $200,000. It is recommended that here spirits are withdrawn in good ith for exportation, and due diligence is cerciaed in their transportation, and ises occur by evaporation or accident, lat no fax shall lx? levied for any such ?s,an<l that provision of law be made for ie exportation of alcohol in motalliccans ; ten gallons and upwards. A compari n of the receipts from the several sourccs : revenue for the first four months of the irrent fiscal year, as compared with tho irrespondinzperiod in 1S78, shows an inease of Sl,178,552. The Ccmmissioner recommends an nendment to Section 2,241 of the Iteviseil atutes, which wil' provide for an aliowice of a drawback on worms of stills hen exported. During four months of the preseut tis1 year the decrease in the receipts from baccoand snuff hs compared with the irrespondinj* time last year, was $2,336, i9. These figures indicate a reduction for e year in the receipts from this source of er $7,000,000. The increasing proaperiof the country which has given so favorae an impulse to all business has largely metitted the tobacco trade, and the reipis have in consequence not suffered heavily as was expected. Experience is shown that no uiateral advantage, is been secured to the consumers in a duction of price by reason of a reduc )roi tax. Statements showing the increase and deeaao of the revenue from oach particular mrce of the tobacco tax for the laat fiscal >ar, as compared witli the aauie source r the preceding year, are given, showing int the loss in revenue from mauufac,red tobacco, including snuff, resulting om the cauaea above stated, were made 5 by the increased collections from garu, which ia fonnd to be nearly 7 per nt. Tho total coat of collecting revenue r the year was $4,200,830, being 3 7-10 ir cent on the amount collected. The Commissioner regards the avateni hich requires district attorneys and arahals to rely upon ieei for their comjnsation, as a vicious one, and tending to moralize the service, and thinks that if leir salaries were rixed by law the service ould be greatly iinprovrd.<rfTho total nount expended through collectors of iternal revenue for information leading i the discovery of frauds and punishcnt of guilty persona was $05,506. Durg the year thirty-five revenue agents ive been employed, and .their total ex mscs nave been $1-0,000. During the fiscal year and from June 30 November i, 1870, 1,319 illicit stills ere seized, 2,924 persons arrested, and in ie performance of these duties fifty ofliirs and guides were killed and twenty* iree wounded. During this period fiftyis otHcere and employes were proceeded tainat in State courts. The total number \ such prosecutions in the past three sars hss been 165. Tho Commissioner vs: 4,I am of opinion that very nearly if k quite all ot these prosecutions are ithout probable cause and are instituted z means of obstructing the enforcement the laws, aud these facts afford addijnal evidence of the difficulty in the way collecting Internal revenue. The total amount realized by the tax on ,e capital and deposits ol bauks and inkers during the tiscal year ended June I waa $3.490,913, and for the tiscal year of f>, 13,184,979, a decrease of $300,084. The expenses for the next tldcal year e estimated at $-1,328,000, being an incase of $122,000 over last year. For the Jarie* of otiicers, clerks aud employes the bureau proper, aggregating 193 perms, an appropriation of $253,2:!0 is recamended, the same as last year. The mimissioner adding that it will be wholly apracticableto reduce the forco in any irticular without natural injury to the nblic service. A full statement is given [ the estimated expenses of each district. In addition to the bureau proper, there e counected with various Districts iroughout the U. 8., 120 collectors, 860 aputv collectors, 179 clerks, messengers ad janitors, 693 gaugers, 1303 itorekeepm and til tnluu^n inanootnra i ?nyiug Uie report* are tubulated stateleiiu. showing the nusaber o( grain dislleries o! different capacities ancl tha uantities of grain, and the cjuaatity in ich distillery, the returns ol distilled ^irits under each act ot the Legislature i J uly, 1S?"i3 to Juno 30, I860, and other alalia ol similar aaturo.
