3. Os the Estimates of the Public
Revenue and Expenditure for the
year 1 822.
The diminution of the revenue
from imports and tonnage, which
.occurred in 1819, advanced with
progressive force through 1820,
and reached its lowest point of de
pression in the first quarter of the
present yejir. The duties secured
in that quarter were 727,000 dol
1 irs less than (hose ofthe coirespou
ding quarter of 1820 ; whilst the
amount secured in tho second and
third quarters exceeded that of the
same j oriod of ihc preceding year
by 1,172,000 dollars ; thus present
ing, on the 30;h of last,
an aggregate excess of 445,000 dol
lars, for the three first quarters cl
1821, which sum, there is just rea
son to believe, will be considerably
augtnented id the end ofthe year.
W hilst the duties have progres
sively increased, the debentures
clmrgeablq upon tliein have consi
derably diminished : the amount of
debentures issued from the first of
January to the B('th of September
last, being 952,000 loss than was is
sued during the same period of the
preceding year.
The same causes which, in 1819
and 1820, effected so great a redac
tion ofthe revenue arising from urn
ports and tonnage, were felt in an
equal degree in the Side of the pub
lic lands, Those who, from an an
ticipation of Ihtir resources previ
ously to those years, were unable
to purchase foreign merchandise,
were equally incapable of purchas
ing public lands, or of discharging
debts contracted with the govern
ment by purchases antecedently
made.
in the animal report ofthe Trea
sury at the commencement of the
l ist session of Congress, the receipt
ft mu the public lands for the year
18.21 were estimated at 1,600 000
dollars, if no change should he made
by law affecting (lie obligations
which the purchasers were then
under to be punctual in their pay
ments. But, at the close of that
session, an act was passed for the
relief of the purchasers of public
lands, which so far impaired that
obligation as to induce the Commit
tee of Ways and Means to estimate
the proceeds of that source of re
venue at onh Soo,odo dollars, it
has been show n, however, that the
receipts tc the 80th of Septemuer
last have exceeded 940. 1 00 dollars ;
and those ofthe whole y ear are now
estimated at 1,300,080 dollars.
This result in relation to the pub
lie lauds, and the improvement
which has taken place in the reve
nue arising from imports and ton
nage. indicate a favorable change in
the condition of the nation ; from
which a progressive increase of the
public revenue may be confidently
anticipated. /
Independently, however, of any
such increase, the facts disclosed
by the fiscal operations of the year,
some of which have been enumerat
ed, warrant the conclusion,
That the receipt* ofthe year 1822
may be estimated at $’6,110,000 CO
Viz.
Customs, 14,800,000 00
Public kinds, l ,60U,00n 00
flank dividends, 350,1/00 00

Moneys recovered out of
advances made in the
War Department, be
fore the Ist July 1815, 60.000 00
Incidental receipts, 2a,u00,00
The expenditures of the year
1822 are estimated at $14,947,661 80
Viz ;
Civil, diplomatic, and
miscellaneous, 1,664,297 00
Public debt, 5,722,957 01
Military service, in
cluding fortifications,
ordnance, Indian de
partment, revolu- >
tionary and military
pensions arming the
the militia, and ar
rearages prior to the
Ist 6f January, 1917, 5,108,097 62
Naval service, inclu
ding the gradual in
crease of tho navy, 2,452,110 27
The receipts ofthe year
will, therefore, exceed
the t-slimrded expendi
ture, by $1,162,338 20
Which, after discharging the dif
ference between the balance in the
Treasury on the Ist of January,
1822, and the balance of appropria
tions chargeable upon it, will leave
in the Treasury, on the Ist of Jan--
uaiy, 1823, a balance estimated at
$671,375 50.
It is, however, proper to state,
that, iu the estimate for the naval
service, only $200,000 ofthe annu
al appropriation of $500,000 for the
gradual increase of the navy is in
eluded; but that, of the amount
estimated by the Secretary of War,
a sum larger than the balance of
that appropriation as for arrearages
for revolutionary pensions and the
Indian deparVient, which will not
be embraced in the estimates for
the year 1823.
The expenditure of the two suc
ceeding years, it is believed, will
not exceed that of the year 1822,
unless a further expenditure shall,'
in the intermediate *iine, he aethor-
; *eij by law. But, in the expendi
ture year 1522, arrJ also ol
182.5 and -Oil-., - .-fiaf the annual
appropriation or SIO,OUO,Ouo u..
,stitutmg the sinking fund, is com
prehended, except what is necessa
ry to discharge the interest of tSie
public debt, ami the reimbursement
of the six per cent, deferred stock.
On the Ist of January, 1825, and the
three succeeding years, the debt
contracted during the years 1812,
ISIS, 1814. and 1815, becomes
redeemable at the will of the gov
ernment. These sums greatly ex
ceed the amount of the sinking fund
applicable in those years to the re
demption of the public debt. As
the current value of the live per
-cent, stock, created during the last
and present years, exceeds thin of
the seven per cent, stork, and of
the six percent, stock of!Cl2 and
1813, it is presumed that the ladders
of those stocks will be disposed to
exchange them for an equal amount
of five percent, stock, redeemable
at such periods as to give full ope
ration to the sinking fund, as at
present constituted. According to
tI.H view of the subject, $24,000,-
0. 0 of the storks which will be ro
j deemable in the years 1825 and
1826, may be exchanged for five
per cent, stock, redeemable, one
third on the Ist of January, 1831.
and one third on the same days of
1832 ams 1833. This exchange of
six per cent- stock, if effected on
the Ist of January, 1823, will pro
duce an annual reduction of the in
terestfof the public debt, from that
time to the first mentioned period,
of $240,000, and an aggregate sav
ing. through the whole period, of
$2,1C0 000. If the whole of the
seven percent, stock should be ex
changed, the saving wilt be con
siderably increased.
If sitch an exchange of stock
should be deemed inexpedient or
impracticable, a saving of equal, if
not greater extent, may he effected
in the years 1825, 1826, 1827, and
1828 by borrowing, at the rate of
five per cent, in the first and each
successive year, a sum equal to the
difference between the amount re
deemable. and that portion of the
Sinking Fund, applicable to its re
demption ; the five per cent, stock,
so created, to be redeemable at
such periods as to give full operation
to (be Sinking Fund, until the whole
ofthe public debt shall be redeemed,
if (he five per cent, stock shall,
during those years, be above par, a
saving beyond that proposed to be
effected by the exchange of stock in
1822 will be secured, to the extent
of that difference, by the latter pro
iess.
But, it is possible, that the pro
gross! ye increase of the revenue,
which has been anticipated, and
w hich is necessary to the full opera
(ion ofthe Sinking Fund, may not !>■
realized. In that event, the publn
expenditure authorized by law may.
after the Ist of January, 1825, ex
coed the public revenue.
The remedy in such case must
be—lst, an increase ofthe public
revenue by an addition to the ex
isting impositions ; or, 2d, a reduc
tion ofthe Sinking Fund.
First. A general revision and
correction ofthe duties imposed up
on foreign merchandise seem to be
required. Many of the articles
which pay hut fifteen per cent, ad
valorem, ought, in justice as well as
policy, to be pl aced at twenty-five
per cent, which is the duty paid up
on the principal articles of woollen
and cotton manufacture*. The
same observation is applicable to
some of the articles which pay
twenty per cent, ad valorem. A
correction of the existing duties,
with « view to an increase of tite
public revenue, could hardly fail to
effect that object to the extent of
neatly 1,000.000 dollars annually,
It is highly probable, however,
than an increase of duty on some of
those articles might eventually
cause a reduction of the revenue ;
but this can only take place where
similar articles are manufactured in
the country. In that event, do
mestic manufactures will have been
fostered, and the general ability of
the community to contribute to the
public exigencies will have been
proportionality increased.
Second. If it should he deemed
expedient to reduce the Sinking
Fund, in preference to the imposi
tion of additional duties, it may be
satisfactory to know that all annual
appropriation for that object of
.(1.000,000 dollars, commencing on
the first of January, 1825, will ex
tinguish the whole of the public
