The Beacon publishes-a letter Irom

Gen. Leach is conceded to be a very
sensitive weathercock, indicating the

BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TBTBtJ If E.
AVashikgtov, Sept 14. Th re
vised statement of losses under. the
several Administrations, from George
Washington to the present, has Tieen
completed and is ready for issud to-'
day. It differs from that preTWOsly
prepared, in that it embraces Grant's
term and two years of Hayes1. J k"'
The most striking feature is the
...1.. 1 . J A " a Jt
uuiuo tecoru ox me present a.anuni
stratioir from its beginning , to f Jane
30, 1879." In the receipts iro&
all
sources, including those from ca
internal revenue, direct tax, public
lands, miscellaneous dividends, interest
premiums, and receipts from loans and
Treasury, notes, the present Admini
stration did not lose a single cent. In
the disbursements, the total . loss was
$2,676 81, of which that involved in
Post Office accounts, which collects
and disburses its own revenues, was
$1,299 90. Not a cent was lost in war
navy, pensions, and Indian disburse
ments; and in all other ; miscellaneous
disbursements, including those on ac
count of the public debt interest ! pre
miums, and all civil expenses exclusive
of the Post -Office . the loss amounted to
$1,383 91. The rate of loss therefore
is 8 mills to the thousand dollars.
As an example of the comparative
business methods of Democratic and
Republican administrations, it is
shown that tho ratio of loss prior to
June 30, 1801, was $3 50 in each $1,
000; from July li 1861, to June 30,
1879, $1 58 in each $1,000.
The record of disbursements is even
more lavorablo to Republican business
methods. Pri'or to the first .inaugura
tion of Mr. Lincoln, the lots was $5
17 in each $1,000; subsequently Jt has
been 4G cents in each $1,000

Concerning Gen. Ilancock. Major
Gould, a Paymaster in tho Army, was
in Hancock's . headquarters when the
news from Vermont arrived, and
watched closely the effect of Gen. Han
cock, who gravely said:
Thia is not as I wanted it. The
campaign was managed badly on our
Eart. If II had had my way I should
ave put; our ablest speakers in Ver
montnot that! I expected that we
should carry it at all, but in order to
keep the Republican majority down in
the remainder of the north. This is a
bad showing for us in the bejrinhing.
It demonstrates that the Republicans
are holding their own in the north, and
that I shall make no gains from the
soldiers. Their party is solid in the
north." Gen. Hancock, the Major
says, looks gloomy and depressed.
Gen. Alberi Gallatin Lawrence of
Newport J Rhode Island, who lost an
arm at Fisher while on Gen. Terry's
staff,, and who beloDgs lo the great
family represented by William Beach
Lawrence, the. Kac of Ochre Point,
who is his father ha auuounced him
self as a supporter of -Garfield.- In his
patriotic letter to tho Garfield and Ar
thur CiuU-of Newport, he said: "If the
solid south should succeed, half tho
blast furuaces of the-country would bo
shut off; on every hand the effect would
be felt; every mercantilo veuture would
suffer. Tbe pioneer breaking up the
soil in the distant west would drop his
plow, knowing the markets would be
closed to his products, the unfinished
railroads remaining as monuments of
the follyof 'chauKe.' It is the duty of
every one who worked to save the
Union to continue to endeavor to pro-
serve the Nation"
Ex-Senator D.mcy pricks the
