Thus, for the fiscal year ending June 80, 

 1876, from the foregoing statement of actual 

 receipts and expenditures for the first quarter 

 and the estimates of the same for the remain- 

 ing three-quarters, based upon appropriations 

 already made, and also on the assumption that 

 Congress would not increase the expenditure 

 by deficiency or other appropriations, it was 

 expected in the judgment of the Department 

 that the revenues would reach the sum of 

 $297,456,145.14, and that the ordinary expen- 

 ditures would amount to $268,447,543.76. 

 This exhibit gives a surplus revenue of $29,- 

 008,601.38.

And that the net expenditures were 268,459,797 88 



Leaving a surplus revenue, exclusive of pro- 

 vision for the sinking-fund, of $29,022,241 88 



By the statement of actual receipts and ex- 

 penditures for this fiscal year it will be seen 

 that the revenues yielded $287,482,039.16, or 

 $9,974,105.98 less than the estimate; and that 

 the net expenses amounted to $258,459,797.33, 

 or $9,987,746.43 less than was anticipated: ex- 

 hibiting a surplus revenue of $29,022,241.83, 

 or $13,640.45 in excess of the amount con- 

 templated. It will thus be perceived that the 

 estimates, when taken as a whole, were re- 

 markably reliable, varying from the actual 

 results realized by the Treasury only to the 

 extent of $13,640.45.
