Of the Estimate of the Public Revenue and Expenditure for the year 1653. Tlio gross amount of duties on imports and tonnage which accrued from the 1st ot January, to the 80th Sept, last, both days included, is estimated at S 19,500,000 00, and that of the whole year at 323,000,000 00 It is estimated that the amount of deben tures, issued during the same period, ex curds the. amount issued during the corres ponding period ofthe year 1821, by 880,000, and that the amount of debentures outatund ing, on the 30lh Sept, last, chargeable upon the revenue of 1823, is £-234,000, more than was on the same day in 1821 chargeable up on the revenue of 1885. It is estimated the value of domestic arti cles esc ported from the United States in the year ending on the ;70th September last, has amounted to £19,674,079 00, and that fo reign articles exported during the same pe riod, have amounted to £ 22,200,"208. As tlio receipts from the customs in the year 1823, depend, 1st. upon the amount of duty bonds which become doe within that year, after deducting the expenses of collec tion, and the amount of debentures charga- ble upon them: and 2d upon such portion of the duties secured in the 1st and 2d quar ters of that year as are payable within tlio year—it is manifest that an increase in the amount of debentures chargeable upon t he revenue of the year 1823, ora diminution of the importations of foreign merchandize dur ing the two first quarters of that year, must necessarily diminish the receipts into Ihe Treasury. As debentures can he issued at any time within twelve months after impor tation, chargeable upon bonds given for the duties upon such importation, it is impossi ble to foresee, the. amount which may he chargeable upon the bonds that are payable during the year 1823. The facts, however, which have’been stated, justify flic conclusi on, that the amount of debentures which will he issued and charged upon the revenue of 1323, will considerably exceed the amount which wa3 chargeable upon that of 1822.— From the same facts, it. is also presumed that the importations of the two first quar ters of the year 1823 will lie less than the corresponding quarters of the present year. Giving due weight to all the facts connect ed with the subject, the receipts fur the year 1323 may he estimated at Viz: Customs, £19,000,000 Although the facts already disclosed justify the conclusion that the importa tions of the present year exceed the va lue of domestic articles exported during the year, yet there are no means of as certaining the extent of that excess. If the custom-house documents were to be considered conclusive evidence upon this subject, it would be apparent that the nation has, through the whole period of it? existence, imported more in v-ilu>* than it has exported. But the fact is incontestible that the United States have enjoyed a more unintei rupted prosperi ty, and have increased their capital to a greater relative extent, than any of the nations with whom they have maintained commercial intercourse. To shew that the custom-house docu ments cannot be considered conclusive evidence in this case, it is proper to oh 6crve—1st. That the value of articles paying duties ad valorem, imported into the United States, is ascertained bv ad ding to the invoice value ‘20 per cent, if from beyond tlie Cape of Good Hope, and 10 per cent, from all other places ; whilst the value of domestic articles ex ported is ascertained at the port of shipment without any such addition. 2d. The greatest portion ofthe importations and exportations are made in vessel? of the United States 3d. The capital em ployed in the trade of tlio North-West Const and the Pacific Ocean consists al most exclusively ofthe labor and enter- prize of those engaged it) it. Foreign articles, the proceeds of those enterpri- zes, imported into the United .Slates, •ire, therefore, only equivalent to the la bor and enterprize by which they were procured. 4th. The value of domestic articles exported is more imperfectly as certained than of foreign articles import ed ; because it has not been considered necessary to retort to the same sanctions to enforce a compliance with the regu lations which have been prescribed for that purpose. To ascertain (he rela tive valuo of imports and exports, it is And leaving a deficit of about £ 1,250,000 90 lo Ibis estimate the receipts and ex penditures of the year 1024 arc estimat ed to he nearly equal. It is probable, however, that the receipts may exceed, to a small extent, the expenditures ; bul there is at least an equal probability that the receipts for the year 1825 are es timated too high. In the year 1820, the expenditure, assuming the current appropriations to be the same as in the year 1823, may he estimated at $19,- 457,000, k the receipts at £ 19,000,000. As the appropriation of 500,000 dollars for the gradual increase of the Navy expires in that year, the annual expen diture may, for subsequent years he es timated at 10.000,000 dollars, unless it shall he considered expedient to make further provision for the increase «>f that essential means of na tonal defence. It is probable that the annual reven ue will he equal to that sum. To pro vide for the estimated deficit of the years 1825 and 1820, as well as to meet any extraordinary demands upon the Treasury, which unforeseen exigencies may require, it is believed to be expe dient that the revenue shonl I he increas ed. This may be conveniently effected by a judicious revision of the tariff; sure was proposed, have prevented its execution. Existing circumstances do not authorise the conclusion, that a mea sure of this nature will he more success ful during the next year. If the price of the public debt, in 1825, should be as high as it is at present, any portion of it, redeemable at the pleasure of the government, which should he unredeem ed in that and subsequent years, after the application ofthe sinking fund, to that object, may be advantageously ex changed fur stock redeemable at “ticli pe riods as to give full operation to the sink- man may lie approached nod op-ntted upon without being in the least conscious of the I.o t. That man dues not know himself, who suppose? hims. ir to he above the influ- unce o( delicate attentions, or the temptati ons of interest judiciously disguised, in the intercourse, which t.-.k, s place between n member of Congress and a candidate for tlm presidency, it is impossible for the most upright man to know whether his attentions and favors pioeeed from a due regard to merit, nr are directed lo the unworthy pur pose of securing a vote in Cnuvpntion. ft it too often that our best actions are induced bv mixed motives, in which our own affairs much more operative than we would ing fund. This may be effected, either I willingly admit. The seeds of corruption directly by an exchange of stock, or in directly by authorising a loan to the a- mount of-lock annually redeemable be yond the amount of the sikitig fund appli cable to that object.

Heretofore, a candidate for the (’resi dency lias been nominated by a contention of members of congress. It is useless lo inquire how a cotir-e so reprehensible was at li.st adopted. The constitution forbids that a member of congress should arise a an elector. The reason t? palpabi,—S , man could doubt but that a t .undatio.. which, while it will not prove onerous ought lie laid for very improper arrange- to the consumer, will simplify the Inborn I menls mid connections, il the election ol of the officers of the revenue.

When such nomination is an munc- I'he duties upon glass and paper, up- ed, the election ban been considered so on iron an-l load, and upon all articles much a matter of course, that the vot- rs composed of the two I Uior materials, j have hut very partially attended the election are scattered abroad—the. system of nomi nating a candidate for the Presidency, by a convention of the members of Congress, supplies a congenial soil fur their luxuriant vegetation. For that reason, as well as for the reason that its tendency is to lessen tha influence and weight of the people, it ought to he reprobated. Some plan ought to he adopted for obtain ing an expression and concentration of pub lic sentiment. By some, popular meetings have hern suggested, as the most republican, and most proper. Hut to these there seems to he one decisive objection. It is very si 1- dom that those vv ho iH’.end them are respec table. either for numbers or weight of cha racter. This fact we must not disguise from ourselves, however unpleasant wc may fcul it its admission. It has become the general character of popular meetings, that tin y are got up and managed by meddling officious- ness, or designing demagogues. 11- specta- ble men keep aloof from them, in fact this is always their character, except when great events rouse and agitate the public mind — .Vo ordinary excitement can change tln-ir character—and in selecting n candidate for the Presidency, popular meetings would af ford hut a very equivocal evi-h nee of tlio re al sense of the body ofthe p. u'de. These objections to popular meeting* do not exist to a convention ofthe men. -ers of llie State Legi-l,tores. Such a convention can he attended by most itiumh-u i « --ut inconvenience.

The freight ol domestic articles exported in American vessels should he added to their value, after deducting from it the freight of fo reign articles imported in foreign vessels. 3d. The value of foreign articles import ed in vessels engaged in the trade of the Northwest Coast and Pacific Ocean, the proceeds of (lie labor and enterpnz ed of those by whorn’tliey are navigated, should he added lo llie domestic exports. 4th. It is impossible to ascertain what addition should he made to the value of the domestic exports, an account of the o- tni-sion ol the exporters to state correct ly Ihe value of articles exported by them ; but, after making a liberal allowance for foreign article illicitly introduced, or in accurately invoiced, it is believed that a considerable addition should he made. If, t lion, to the amount of domestic ar ticles exported during tho year ending on the 30th of September last, already estimated at $49,874,07-9, the addition* should he made which the preceding facts and considerations appear lo autho rise, the value of our domestic exports during that period tnay be estimated at nearly $80,000,000. Although no calculation has been com pleted, shewing the average rate of duty upon tho value of foreign nrtich s im ported into the United States, it is pre sumed that an importation of $60,000,000 of foreign merchandize will not produce a less revenue than $17,000,000. A? the receipts from the customs during the year 1823 have been estimated at $19,-, 000,000, il is probable that the receipts from the same source, in 1824, which will depend upon the importations of 1823, will not exceed $15.000,000.— Under the most unfavorable circum stances, it is believed that the receipts of that year will Insufficient to discharge all demands upon the Treasury which may be authorized by law. If the current appropriations for the year 1825 shall he equal to those re quired by the estimates for Ihe ensuing year, the expenditure of that year m«v he estimated at $28,253*597 22 viz : Current appropria tions, £3,573,722 22 Fcimsuent appropriations tor Electors. This was the case, even in tint contested el, ctiun of 11)12, between Clinton anil Madi-on.
