Tnr. CABINET.—Tho settlemcet of the new Pierce Cubinet seems to bo still «nKttlcd at Washington. AnJ so far as we can judge, guessing at names would bo a v?ry uncertain ^natter. One thing we will venture, tho formation of the new Cabinet will bo far more difficult than Gen. Pierce at first imagined. Indeed we doubt the possibility of his giving satisfaction. It is prftfy well settled that the old Democracy propor, will not be contcnt, nor 6U3tain him If selections aro not mads from amongst their ranks in the formation of his Cabinet -—on tho other hand it ta well understood that lis will not be sustained by Southern secessionists, or that portion of Northern freesoilers win supported his election, unless they shall bo represented in the Cabinet.— Again it is understood that harmony cannot beexprcted unless a similarity of political sentiment is found to prevail with all the members as a unit. Of all these things it Is now said Get:. Pierce is becoming sensible, and that he is beginning ty understand tha difficulty of his position.

The Lectures of Gov. Wright and Prof. Reed were listened "to by a very respectable audience on Monday night last. Gov. Wright's discourse was somewhat political. We think he availed himself of the chance very smoothly to cut each party over the shoulders of the other. The Governor seeks certain occasions to talk much about the mineral resources of Indiana, and how reproachful it is to the State not to have these resources belter developed, when he knows at the same moment that it is the miserable policy of the General Government of which himself is a warm advocate, which prevents this development.

Prof. Reed is evidently a practiced Lecturer, and appears to good advantage at the de*k. His discourse, directed mainly to mechanic*, was a very sensible one. He supports the sentiment that all professions are equally respectable, and that each and all reciprocally support and sustain each other in the common and necessary business of life.

TREASURY HEPOltT.

Secretary Curwi has sent in his annual report, and it is published i:t the Washington papers. It is quite too long for us, but wo give tho important features as we find them condensed in tho Republic: ^*7

Wo learn from the report cf iRe Secretary of the Treasury, presented to Congress yesterday, that the aggregate recepts for the fiscal v«»nr. ending June 30. 1852. were $*49.728,386,89. to which is to bo added a halnn* of §10, 911 C45 68. in hand July 1, 1851. The expenditures during tho year amounted to S46.007.896 20 leaving a balance at tho commencement of the present vear of 814,632,136,3751^^

I he receipts of the current fiscal year are estimated at §51.800,000, which, added to the existing balance, will form a total of $65,332,196,87. The expenditures are computed at 860.560,056,86 including $7,199 477,77, which is to be applied to the redemption of the public debt. If these calculations be realized, then, the year will lenve an unappropriated balance of $5 372.079,51.

I he total means of the following fiscal year, commencing July, 1, 1853,are estimated at §56,572,079,51, including balance and the expenditures at $46,203.753,60.

The expenditures of tho last year emIrnce the last installment due to Mexico under the treaty of Guadeloupe Hidalgo and tho payment of upwards of $4,000.000 for interest, besides nearly 82,000,000 for the redemption of the principal of vaticus loans. Deducting these and other items of extraordinary expenditure of the period, reduces what may

for the current fiscal year have opproximated closely to actual results. Thus, the receipts, which were calculated at 851,800,000 for the whole period have amounted to 822 220,20 in the first five months and tho estimated and actual expenditures bear a like proportion.— The latter, however, have been increas-

10 lhc

exlcnt

of obout 810,000,000

by appropriations of Congress not included in the estimates presented by the Treasury Department.

The aggregate rrgistered debt of the untry has been reduced by the payment of 82,428,703,1'3 on various accounts, and on tho first January instant stood at 65,131 602 13 exclusive of 85,000,000 Mill deliverable to Texas under tho net ot September 9, 1C50. The report recommends that tho Department be empowered to purchase any portion of the outstanding stocks nt the current market value, to the extent of any surplus-means on hand providing, however, that the available Treasury bolance shall not be reduced beiow 85.000 000.

The inconvenienco accruing to the

merchants of San Francisco from the operation of the act of last session prohibiting the rcccipt for public duties of the issue of the local assay office, is submitted to the consideration of Congress. The pressing and general want of silver coinage is another matter to which attention is directed, and the bill which passed the Senate last scs.-ion, making anew issue reduced weight, is spo ken of as the only available remedy within the knowledge of the Depart tnent.

The btillibti fund during the year lias amounted to nearly $7,000,000 which has been applied to the redemption of mint certiticatcs. The cost of maintaining the fund is from $350,000 to $400,000 annually, and Mr. Corwin proposes to dispense with it by making mint certificates receivable in payment of all dues to the Government, making them redeemable at the mint within, say, twenty days after the bullion deposited shall have been assayed. Restrictions are suggested to prevent the indiscriminate receipts of these certificates throughout the country, and thus obviate the objection that their issue would be equivalent to a paper currency.

The Hoosick tunneling machine, which was to walk straight through the granite hills of New England, has proved a perfect failure. A long description of the work performed, and the cause of its failure, are given in the the Boston Traveler, which, while it asserts the triumph of the principle of the machine, is very ingenious in excuses for its not working as expected. It cut into the rock, the account says, a distance of 25 linear feet, when the machine was pretty well used up. Its progress was from twenty four to eighteen inches per hour, and the core which it drilled had to be blasted out, which destroyed the work as fast as it was performed, as it brought down roof and all, to the amount of 800 tons of rock and earth. ~~~~~~~

RAILROAD BREAKFASTS—A GOOD IDEA. —Hy an arrangement just completed, passengers before leaving Buffilo for New York, while purchasing their tickets at the ofTico there, ore handed a bill of faro, which ihoy select such articles as they desire. The orders aro immepiately forwarded by telegraphic communication to tho refreshment room at Warsaw, and numbered tickets are handed the different passengers. Upon arriving at Warsaw, each finds upon the table whoso card number corresponds with the card, tho breakfast he ordered in Buffalo, and the train waits twenty minutes for him 10 cat it.
