Duiing the late thaw, a school boy’s writ-
ing book was disinterrcd from the bottom of
a snow drift, in a street not far from the vil-
lage, and onla few of its pages the following
article was with some difficulty decyphered,
which ‘if you think worth inserting in your
paper, you are at liberty to do so.
‘ “ When I first came (a few years since)
witbniy parents‘ to reside in Norwalk, after
assisting in stowing away our little stock of
furniture, I obtained leave to reconnoiter the
immediate neighborhood of our humble
dwelling, and having been previously advis-
ed that the town was famous for good schools.
schoolmasters, Soc. I determined to ascertain
the whereabouts of the ‘noisy mansion’ in
the district to which I had the honor to be-
on_g, and in which -it had been more than in-
ated to me, Ishoultl the very next day be
regularly entered as a pupil. Ibad not pro-
ceeded far, before I came to a small build-
ing, venerable from its age, the front of
which stood in a line with the street, and ex-
tending back in rather an intrusive manner
upon the garden of the nearest neighbor.‘
From its appearance I suspected it was ad
cooper’s shop, and forthwith determined to‘
call and inquire after the aforesaid school,
house. As I approached the building, my
suspicions in regard to the character of it
were confirmed. The door stood ajar, and
‘having the old adage in view, ‘look’ before
you leap,’ I perceived nicely piled up, near
the door inside, a quantity of something
which could not be mistaken for barrel stoves.
On a nearer approach, a shaving horse was
clearly visible, with the youngest apprentice
mounted upon it, and to clear away any sha-
dow of doubt, one of the workmen was that
moment hooping a cask-—at least I judged
so from the noise. On opening “the door,
however, to my utter astonishment ‘and dis-
may, I found I had entered upon the thresh-
hold, not of a coopcr’s shop, but the school
house itself! and without stopping to apolo-
gise for my intrusion, I scampered away
portance of the discovery, and chagrin at the
almost sacrilegious error I had committed.
After retiring to a respectful distanceI came
the location and exterior of the building.——
To my unpractised ‘eye it appeared to be
about 16 feet square, more or less, but in re-
gard to the age in which it was erected, I
could not so easily satisfy myself, but con-
cluded it must have been at least, not ‘ with-
in the memory of the oldest inhabitant.’ It
was covered with boards, which it would
seem had been at some remote period, groov-
'ed and tongued together, but had long since
parted company. The windows gave slight
evidence that they had once been glazed-—
the light which they gave on the subject,
however, was far from being satisfactory, on
&c. with which they were decorated. I could
not at first discover any grounds attached to
the building, except the public road, but a
closer inspection convinced‘ me that I had
done injusticeto the liberality of the propri-
"etors-,-_a space being open from the street on
.the side in which the door was located, just
three feetwide, sothat ingress and egress
could easily be effected in ‘ Indian file,’ but

hen my attention was attracted toan enor-
o,us padlock dangling from the post of the

ought to suspend my judgment in regard to

suaded that so’ formidable a safeguard, must
be for the protection of something of more
importance than had yet fell under my oh-

THE SUB‘-TREASURY’ IN AUSTRIA. ,
Mn. fill)!-:1’)H’=Ijl.lSi begin to see into the
" Sub-iI"ré22suL7’_y” schetiie. “The light comes
from AtIs'rttiA. Where they understand how
to make a government strong, as well as any
.\Vh9*'9 in the world. And you lmow_ in
these days, "The Government must take
care ofitself; and the people must take care
of themselves." You shall see one .way
they manage in Austria to get along pretty’
much without any ballot-box at all. In the
“Rvport of the Committee. on Finance,”
1840, and ‘ordered to be printed with 10,000
additional copies-—is a letter from J. Ran.
‘Z0./P/9 Clay ofthe Lngation of the U. S. at
_Vienna, in which he tells all about the Aus-
trian Sub-Treasury/.
The -first secret of making a government
strong, is to have at great ’I7l(L7I._7/ ofliccrs cm-
ploycd, on the -principle that'“A great num-
ber of officers employed in the service adds
strong!/L to the Slate"—(tbe Government is
the State you know, not the people—Mr.
Rand0lph~Clay learned that in Austria.)—-
Thiis, he says: ‘
" The collection ofthe indirect taxes is in-
trusted to a distinct class of officers. I have‘
not been able to ascertain the exact amount
derived from this branch of the revenue, but
the want ofsiich information is of little con-
sequence, as I am told; the Treasury is not
benefitted by them as their collection, owing
to the great number of officers employed,
costs more than the indirect taxes produce,
and it is even asserted that the Government
would gain by abolishing them. If it be
asked why they are continued, the answer is,
that acting upon the principle that a great
number ofofiicers employed in the service
adds strength to the State, the Government
retains thereby a class of faithful adherents,
who would be thrown out of employment,
and _left unprovided for, by the abolition of
the indirect taxes.”
So you see that it benefits the Government
to have taxes, even when the taxes don’t pay
for collecting. Now our government can
get along very well without any more taxes,
by only having the Customs paid in specie.
Thus, the Collector in N. Ybrk last year
raised 8-l5,000,000. Put one-third of this
in silver and the rest in geld, and you have
600,000 pounds weight to carry to and from
the custom house. To count and re-count
the same, would require the army of custom
house men to be doubled: and all these would
add amazingly to the strength of the govern-
ment. , .
lllr. Randolph Clay goes on to tell how
the Austrian Government has too much wit
to allowa paltry bank to stand in its way—-
thus: ' '
“ The Austrian Government is wise
enough to place the public money in the
hands of its own officers, and to prefer trust-
ing to their honesty, guarantied bytheir oath
and a small security, given by bond or oth-
erwise, rather than to the intactible responsi-
bility ofan incorporated company. " "
Austrian statesmen have avoided the error of
creating a great moneyed institution, which
could, by a perversion of its power, interfere
with the action of Government.”
So the object is to make the government
strong, and then allow nothing that can pos-
sibly interfere with it. ' i
“ Public money is transmitted to and from
Viennathrougb the bank and its branches,
by means of bills of exchange; but always
from one imperial ‘casse’ (treasury) to an-
other.”
So you see the Austrians, (I beg pardon,)
the Government of Austria, has asub-treasu-
ry; as Mr. Randolph Clay goes onto show:
*' The foregoing remarks will show, that
the Austrians have, in fact, a ‘sub-treasury’
system under the control of the Minister of
Finance, and that the public funds are col-
lected, deposited, and expended, without the
aid of a national bank. The name of ever
officer is registered.” -
And as ‘ every oflicer’s name is register-
ed,’ the government always know what string
to pull. If the officer does not serve the
Government well, he can be ‘ reformed.’
Mr. Randolph Clay goes on to say that
the scheme works well; .
“The system is believed to work well,
and the Government has rarely occasion to
regret having reposed confidence in the hon-
esty of its subjects intrusted with the charge
of the revenue. Indeed, it would be no coni-
pliment to the national character ofany State,
to suppose that no officers could be chosen
from among its citizens, who would have
peculation offered by the duty of receiving,
holding, and distributing the public revenue.”
And so our Government say that things
work well—considering—in our way of col-
lecting and keeping the public money. You
be foundhonest enougb—-even if we have
been Swartwouted out of some few millions.
The Government will look out to get honest
men, when the money is wholly committed
to sub-treasurers. .
Mr. Randolph Clay goes on to argue out
very clearly, how the government can trust
its “ own citizens,” and “officers,” after all ;
and why should not we let them manage it
all for us? Why should the people trouble
themselves about such matters, when the
“ Government” and the “officers” are so
honest? ~
NIt'.—R3D(l0lph Clay says :
“Governments are like individuals in
some respects. When a man cannot take

would seem that t e'y. ought to cease toibe-in-
e_pende'rit, and should call upon some wiser
or more honest power to take them-iiiiderlits
protection.” , _ _ _ .
Wheri the Sub-Treasury has suitably
strengthened the Government—(giv.ing to
the. government the .“'p-arse,” as well as the
sword, and makingtlie Government str'ong,=
by a' su__itable increase of officers)-—tben per-
haps we shall get along as well as they do
in Austria. Mr. Randolph Clay says:"
“The population is -divided into five class-
es, viz : clergy, high nobles, petty nobles, in-
abitants of towns, and peasants. Among
the great privileges enjoyed by the nobles
and clergy is that of exemption from all tax-
es. The peasants. on the contrary, are not
only deprived of all civil rights, but besides
the onerous services they areobliged to ren
der their lords, such as to labor [04 out of
365 days and to pay to the lord the 0th part
of the whole produce of the land," they pay
the tithes to the clergy, and bear, together
with the inhabitants oftowns, (not noble.) all
the expenses of the State.”
Now, Mr. Reed, if you willjust letthc
people know how well the sub-treasury
works in Austria, perhaps, on "sobcr'se-
cond thoughts,” they may let the Govern-
ment have it pretty much in their own way.
P. S. I find in the above mentioned report
several other beauties illustrative of the sub-
treasury, and of the." specie,” or “Benton
Currency.” Take that of the Grand Duchy
of Tuscany as a specimen:
“As in Tuscany there is no national debt,
there exists no national puper'curre.-ncy,-of
course the revenue of the Government ‘is
solely in specie. The single article of per-
manent taxation is real estate; every habita-
tion or warehouse in the city is estimated at
its annual value to the owner, and on this
rent, and which is never less than its real
product, the tax is affixed, which in Leg-
horn is 17 per cent. on the annual amount.
of the rent of each habitable building or
warehouse ;“ this if nominally producing l00 ,
dollars rent, 3l7 are due to the Govern-
ment, , The revenue of the Grand
Duke by taxation of Tuscany, is about six
millions of dollars. the population being a
little over a milieu of subjects.
Tit. ArPi..t:.'ro1~i. Consul of U. S. A.
Take that of Turkey:
"Sir—I have the honor to answer your
letter of the 7th August last. The revenue
of this capital is collected in specie, both. gold
and Silver, by the custom-house officers, and
the chief of each corporate trade or guild,
whose bankers are responsible to the Gov-
ernment for the amount which is known. _
The bankers are responsible to the Gov.
ernment for the amount, whether it is col-
lected or not. They receive it from the
Provinces, either in specie, transported‘ on
horseback, or by’ bills of exchangegilnd pay
it into the treasury of the capital in specie;
Should any of the bankers fail to pay tbegp,-.V=
