follows on the above daten in 1876 in 1177 1877 in 1878 and in la 1879 7 the decrease in the note balance arises from various causes notably from the receipt for customs and national revenue of coin paid out in the purchase of bullion for the coinage of standard silver dol doi dollars larg from the exchange of notes for gold and the payment of notes for foreign jold zold kold received at the assay onlee office NewY new Now York ork orb froin from the purchase of gold bullion with notes and the payment of the interest on the public debt in united states notes and from the payment of arrears of pensions the most constant influence fi tience in the decrease of the tho note balance is that which pro pre proceeds ceede from the purchase of silver sliver bullion for the coinage of bullion thereby do depriving the treasury of an equal amount of note receipts ie all the above mentioned causes causa of the diminution except this can be controlled by the department since the

receipts from all sources Our ces are of this amount at least ia Is in sil bli vor ver dollars or in silver eer that being the minimum paid annually for silver sliver bullion for coinage which amount speedily ninda finda its way into the treasury more certainly because payments for bullion are made either at new yo york k or san rian francisco which are both both centre centres of large receipts

decrease of the note balance from the diven diver dollar coinage alone the treasurer says unless the rules of the new york clearing house hoube are changed so as to permit payment by tho treasury of all or a certain percentage of the balances in silver it may become desirable for ther the treasury to withdraw from u relation W which aich renders oyer over of lawful money in its vaults unavailable for payment at new york the point of the greatest public disbursement the silver bullion on hand b ilas lias as decreased during the year from to on account of the difficulty in making purchases as
