Eslimatcs for 1832. _
The great commercial activity prevailing in the
United States has contributed not only to enlarge
the revenue from Customs for the present year be .
yond the estimates. but will probably currythat of
the nextycar to a still higher amount. The inipor-
tations for the year ending on the 30th of Septem-
ber lust, are estimated at ‘$97,032,858, and the ex-
ports at $30,372,566; of which, $62,048,233 were
domestic. and $18,324. 333 foreign products.
The Duties which accrued during the first three
quarters of the presentyear. are eitilnatetl 81 $97.-
3l9.000; and those for the fourth quaiter. at $6,-
000,000. Some deduction. hovi‘:3vi'r, will be made
from these before they can reach the Treasury, on
account ofihe reiltiction in the duties on Coffee,
Tea, Cocoa, and Salt, by the acts of the 20th ‘and
29th May, 1830. and whicli may be estimated to
effect the duties on those articles remaining in store
on the [st of January, 1832, to the ainouut of about
$750,000. . _. _
The receipts from the Public Lands. during ilic
present’ year, have likewise exceeded the estimates,
and indeed Iiave gone beyond all former example
It is believed tliat,notwitlistaiiding the large amount
'ofac-ii and forfeited land stock that ina_y still be
abaorb d in payments for loads, yuv, ifi.lt_e nurgfys
now projected, be completed, the receipts trout
this source of revenue will not fall greatly below
those of the present year.
From all the iuforination which the Department
has been able to obtain, the Receipts into the
Treasury during the your 1832, may be estimated
. $30,100,000

The expenditures for the year 1832,
for all objects other than public
debt, are estimated at
viz :
. 13,365,202 16
Civil, Foreign inter-
course, and Miscel-
laiieous,
Military service, incltt-_
ding fortifications,
ordinance, Indian
Affairs, arming the
' Militia and Internal
improvements,
Naval service. including
the gradual improve-
ment of the N av]. .. 9.9.07-013 71
Which being deducted from the esti-
mated receipts, will lettvo I III-
lance of $l0.734.797 34
It is estimated that on the lutlanunry 1833, the
public debt will tiinountto no more than $10,302.-
686 97. This amount can be liquidated almost at
once, should Congress‘ no direct, by in sale of the
Government interest in the United States ‘ink,
which is estimated at $8. 000,000. This measure
the Secretary recommends.---In respect to the
United State: Bank he remarkii,-— .
The indispensable necessity of such an in-
stitution for the fiscal operations ofthe Gov-
ernment in all its departments, for the regu-
lation and preservation of a sound currency,
for the aid of ' commercial transactions gen-
erally. and even for the safety. and utility of
-the local Banks, is not doubted, and it is be-
lieved, has been shown in the past experience
of the Government, and in the general accom-
-modation audoperations ofthe present Bank.

It is to be observed, moreover, that the fa-

cial.and uiiiiiiifucturiiig iiidiistry of all parts of
the Union could not now be ivitlidraivii even by.
transferring them to iiitotlier iiis_iittition,witli-
out _a severe shock to each of those tiitei'eiit.<
and to the relations of society generally.
To similar consideration, it may be presum-
tlie ttniforiii policy of
the several States of the Union, of reclitir-
tc-ring their local institutions, with such mod-
ifications as experience in-.iy have dictated, in
preference to creating; new ones.

The revision and alteration in the exist'ng
duties which will be called for by this state
of things cannot too early engage the atten-
tion ofCongress. The information requisite
to the establishment ofa scale of duties upon
.a.p_ermanent and satisfactory basis will re-
quire time ; and a systcni in which so many
important interests are involved will be better-
subserved by prospective legislatibn than by
sudden changes. ,
The revenue derived from the present du-
ties csnnot be safely dispensed with before
the period assigned for the cxtiugiiisliment of
the public debt ; but such revised system as

March, 1833.
Independently of the charge for the public
debt, the revenue for the expenditures of ilie
Government, as at present authorised, need
not. it is estimated, exceed, annually, the sum
of 513,500,000.
It is believed, however, that there are other
objects of expenditure ofobvious expediency,
if not ofiudispcnsahle necessity, which it may
be supposed have been postponed by the Ingli-
er obligation of paying the public debt. The
present occasion is deemed propitious to pro-
vide for those objects in a initniier to advance
the glory and prosperity oftlie country, with-
out inconveiiieiice_to the people.
It is therefore respectfully recommended
that in addition to the expenditure as at pres-
ent iiuthorizetl, appropriations may, at the
proper time, be provided for the following ob-
jects :-—For augmenting the naval and mili-
tii'ry.rcs‘oiir_ces; extending the armories; arm-
ing the militia of the several states; iiicreas-
ing the pay and emoluments of the navy offi-
cers to an 'equality with those of the army,
and providnig them with the mean! of nautic-
til instruction : enlarging the navy hospital
fund ; strengthening the frontier defences ;
removing obstructions from the Western Wa-
ters, for lllul(II)g‘.8CClll‘t1le and complete sur-
vey: of the coast, and for improving the coast
and harbors of the Union so as to afford great-
er fiicilitics to the commerce and navigation
of the United States. ..The occasion would
also be a favorable one for constructing cus-
commercial cities, in some of which. they are
indispensably necessary for the purposes of
the revenue; and likewise providing for the
proper permanent accomodation of the Courts
of the Uiiited States and their ofiicers.
In many districts the compensation of the
officers of the customs in the present state of
commerce is insufficient for their support,snd
inadequate to their services. As a part of
the general system, and cffectuiilly to guard
the revenue, the services of such officeis are
necessary, without regard to the amount of
business. and it is believed,expedieut to make
tlieirallowance commensurate with the vigi-
lence required and the duties to be performed.
A further improvement may be made in the
mode of compensating the officers ofthe cus-
toms, by substituting salaries for fees _in all
the collection districts, by ;\VIllCIl, at a com-
paratively small expense to the Treasui y,com-
merce and navigationi would be relieved from
bnrthens always inconvenient, if not oppres-
stve. .
It is believed that the public property and
oflices at the Seat of Government, require im-
provement and extension, and that further up-
propriations might be made to adapt them to
the increasing business of the country.
The salaiies of the public ministers abroad,
must be acknowledged to be utterly inade-
quate, either for the dignity of the oflice or
the necessary comforts of their families. At
towards the United States are the most im-
portant, the expenses-iiicident to the station,
are found vii‘ burtbensomc as only to be metiby
the privatc resources of the" minister. The
tendency oftliis is to throw those high trusts
altogether; in the hands o(..tIt&}_rieh, which in
certainly-not according to-the coins of our
system. _ Such‘: provision for p_u'_ _ic mining;-g

of opinion with respect to the expediency of
distributing, among the several States, any
surplus revenue. that may casually accrue, it
is not doubted that any sclieme for encourag-' 0
ing a surplus for distribution or for any ‘par. '

generally discountenanced. ' There is too '
much reason to apprehend that a regular, vie‘; ‘

or an iinifuiiii cxpectatiop from the some ‘
source, would create too great an incentive’
to high and unequal duties, and not merely 9

ately undermine and subvert the purity and

The propriety of reasonably protectingiitlie”
D'i-i__inestic Industry is fully conceded; but it is "
believed it would neither require. n'o'r'just,ify'
the raising of it larger amount of revenue than .
may be necessary todefray ‘the expenses of
the Governmen_t._ .-oine of the evils of it iiur- '
plus, which an excess of revenue beyond the I
expenditure would necessarily induce, have
been already noticed. To these may be ad- .
.dcd the effect upon the peace and harmony of‘
the country and upon the safety of the Union, '
which should certainly not be hazarded for
any object not of vital importance to its‘ wot-‘
farec V I
If it could be shown that the labor and cap .
ital of the United States required greater aid
to shield them fromthe injurious regulations-'
of foreign States, sound policy would rather’,
recommend it system of bounties by which the
duties collected fintn imports might beidir’ect-
ly applizd to the objects to be cherished than-'
ilie aecumiilation of money in tlie"I‘i-eaiiiii-yi-. '
No suchnecessity, however, is supposed to,‘
exist.
The amount of revenue equal to the author!
ized expenditures of the Government it is the.
constitutional ditty of Congress to provide
and, to a tariffframed for this object, it is not _
pr.-i-ceivcd that there can besny reasonable‘
objection. Oftliis duty, the Constitution it-
self precludes all doubt by authorising both’
the expenditure and the means ofdefrayiugit. ‘_
_In providing a revenue upon this principle '
and for these purposes, the attention of Con-
gress will be necessarily directed to the ar-
ticles of imports from which the duties should
be collected ; and this is it question of expo-, '
diencymercly. to be decided with it just re-
gard to all the great interest: involved in the
subject.
