During the same period dial expenditure has —been supplied by an aggregate amount of reveu- from vu rim,., ^ u i thie fiy f lom ,h u cus toms, of 157,600,000. In qtWiwn \9 »“ hues-. ^5n<ied balance in the Treasury at the com - " ineuccmcutof that term, of 6,353,630 dollars a- hout ono-sixth of which consisting of ttis p iper ol broken banks, and similar feuds, has remained unavailable iu tbc Treasury. Deducting from these receipts and expendi tures the amount received aud paid out oa ac count of claims of Our citizens agaiust foreign Governments, of which the Treasury was merely the channel of receipt aud payment, there will result an annual average of twrntj sir millions of dollars of annual.income, and an annual nverago wKpc,..t'.iuru yb.orbing this amount, together with the balance in the Treasury at the cod of 1326, amounting to nearly twenty-seven millions of dol lars a year. During the same period 83,173.003 dollars of dttblie debt wai paid off, leaving an average an nual amount of expenditure! fbr rill other purpos es, of something less thou 13,500.000 dollars. These antouuU are stated in rouud numbers, as they nro sufficiently- accurate fur all the pur poses of ibis report, and present the views of the co'tnuihtee uueiiibarrassvd with minute detail, in X inmate perspicuous manner. In the gross sum upon which this average nn- -nual expenditure is calculated, were included the •payments for the settlement of tho claims of Mas sachusetts, Virgiuia and South Carolina, the t.,rge expenditure consequent on the emigration of tho Indian Tribes, and tho extinguishment of Indian tiilos, nil made during the fast three years. Jla- . king allowance for theso extraordinary e'penses, the income necessary for the ordinary operation * of Government, providing liberally for nn efficient civil, military and naval service, need not amount to nrn.-o than thirteen miiiiuu of dollars annually, including tho Pension system of former years.— This calculation, deduced by the committee from .tho Treasurer's accounts from 1827 to 1332, in clusive, corresponds in its result very ocavly with one furnished by tho Treasury Department, foun- - ded on somewhat different data, by which the av- -ermre expenditure of six years, from 1326 to 1331 inclusive, for all ordinary and fixed expenses, to gether with those of a loss permanent character, but growing out of tho regular and long coutiu- tied policy of our legislotiou, as for fortifications, navy yards, light houses, .ke. is stated at 13,113;- -000 dollars. To this Mim tiie ict at the last ses sion ext. nJing the systi in of revolutionary pctl- -sinus will require for some years an additional arum, which i-> not vet fully ascertained, but is c. rtai.dy not kn than one million if do‘1 r . in another annaal million bo added to tiiii enlarged expcnditureaof cmr present. ndian policy, for the erection of custom houses and public stores, for future aud uuToreseeo contingencies of all coins, including th'ise of temporacy collisions with for ei.rii powers or :bo Indian tribes, the clear reven ue of fifteen million- seems to cover all tbit can be • required* for Rational Axpenscs m ordinary -times- This sum. it will be remarked, is that e/- titnated as the proper permanent revenue of the 'Nation by the Secretary of the Treasury iu his ■reports of the last and present year.

Deeply impressed by these considerations,The committee have prepared a hill for reducing, and otherwise altering the rates of duties upon foreign merchandize, wiiich-, should'it meet with the ap probation ef Congress, iiihy servo as a basis lor ottr financial'system for many years. Throwing out of view for tbc present, the pro gressive reduction that expediency iuiu even jus tice may require, they have fixed’ the revenue to be ultimaieiy raised at a sum not exceeding fif teen million. The stocks oivnad by Government, I iWmcuh they regard solely as au effect to the remaining large wsi debt. _ Neuhcrjustice, nor any principle ofiiberal pol icy, cau permit, witln.ut urgent' ueccssjty,^ that the Post Ojjice thonld be made a. soiircO of fe- veuue.

The PUBLIC LANDS, at tho then present system of sale, may now bo safely calculated as ptoducing an annual iucome of lieu millions and a half. It is tree that various plans for disposing of these lands in cueli n manner as to withdraw the proceeds from the general'funds of the Treasury, have been proposed by the highest authority.— The committee do not propose to outer info auy di-ciisRou of the merit of these proposiftoas.— Until it be altered by legislation, they most re gard the actual system ns the set tied policy of tho Government. * They must, however, observe, that should that policy be changed, such altera tion would not of necessity overthrew or disar range the pian offinauceno.w proposal. _ Throw ing out of account altogether, the large suta3 expended in former venrfe by the Luited States in a-quiriiig this territory, ci.h.-rby arms or by purchase, together with the past expenses of our land system, as yet unliquidated by the proceeds of the sales, there nhj other current ex- peu-os now defrayed from tlte goiier:.! funds of tito Treasury which might 1 e justly « bas^eali'o tipoh the hicoruo tram the lafids*,. should that he made a distinct fund, and which, if mini from tuotice, would thus far diminish me nmouat ofre- venuc necessary to be drawn from other sourcis Th 'se are; 1st. The expense of She Land Sjsfeiu itself—about 230,003 dollars imuuaHy. 2d. The eXppnscs of Indian annuities, educa tion, and qthof stipulation's arising under the trea ties by which we have obtniued possession of theso lands. These, wholly exclusive «d' the charge of Indian emigration, amount at present to 302.700 dollars a yuar, a ml will probably bo much increased before the final extinguishment of the Indian tide. 3d. Revolutionary Pensions. The original ti tle of a great part of these lands arose from the grants and releases of th-i •“ fates to tho cowfeder- hcv for the (furjxixe of common defence aud gen-' eral welfare, during th# war ofthe revolution, aud they have been again and again solemnly pledged for the debts of the nation. Tho" pensions now received by t!»e surviving soldiers of the revolu tion were at first granted under tho' harsh aud un- ju\t name of national bounty. But tbo act of 1823 and that of Jo32, have now placed them on the more sound as weH as mere constitutional ground of payment of revolutionary debt, and an equitable, though not literal fulfilment of Idiag, neglected and violated contracts. The pensions for tbip n&xt turn years will prob ably be (for as yot the ex.ait irmounr cannot be ascertained) about two willMsa year. .But tlii,. sum depending upon the lives'of old men, all a- hove seventy years of ago, niust rapi’dly doerpase, and in a very few years cease entirely.' Should these pensions be considered for die prcstfin ak a chargo Upon tbe lauds, itwouldbe temporary on ly. _ Withiu four or five years the greater’ part of the income, and in a few-years more the whole, would be liberated, aud at either period the sur plus from ibis soli roe might be applied as the wis dom of Congress/nay direct, leaving tbe revenue from the customs sufficient for all other heads of public expenditure.
