FINANCES OF MASSACHUSETTS.

The subjoined summary of the financial condition of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is derived from Governor Boutwell's message to the Legislature, at the commencement of its session in January, 1852.

Excluding the balance in the Treasury on the first of January, 1851, the ordinary receipts of that year were $566,432 09, and the ordinary expenditures were $642,105 38, showing a deficit of $75,673 29. Among the items are three of an unusual character, namely the reception of the President, the Valuation Committee, and the enlargement of the State Prison; which, together, involved an expenditure of more than twenty-nine thousand dollars. In addition to this, the session of the Legislature of 1851 was of unusual length and cost. The estimated receipts for the year 1852 are $617,000, and the estimated expenditures are $568,291; showing a balance in favor of the Treasury of $48,709.
