This statement slhows that the total receipts of the Govermuet. during its whiole existence. prior to Jute 30. 1873. from cnstoms. internal rcvunue and direct taxes amounted to $5.!89.467.480.30. Duriig the seven years to which I have heretofore referred. to wit. front 1856 to 1862 inclusive. the amount received from theose sourcesand I shall consider the receipts from no etherswas $362.874.580.70. the average receipts per year having been something over $50.000.000. Daring the same years we received 1.033.697 immigrants. The immiiigration into the country is an element of wealth and taxable power that caunot properly be omitted from such a consideration as that in which we are now enaged. I therefore propose to present the two siuhjoets in parallel coumls: Year. florene.
