Beside, the reiterated charge of great expenditures in .mount under Mr. Van Buren. which the Whigs engaged to TL an j reduce to about tlnrteen millions annually—but which.instead of lowering, they have actually increased, from tlie twenty-two and a half millions ot hia last year, to nore than twenty-six millions in one and higher than that oroposed in another year—they complained grievously that Ibe expenses under Mr. Van Buren were not met by the rrrenoe of esch year. It is true. that including appropna- "on, added by Congress, and large drawbacks of revenue Estopped, though requested, a deficiency occurred of Sout five and a half u illiona in the whole four >e»ra; and. in consequence of that, aomething like that sum had been added tothe temporary debt on the 4thof March, 1841, when Mr Van Buren went out of power. (See Mr. Forward s report to the Senate. No. 41.5an.JO. 1643.) But this was nfUiole „f the false forty million debt, created under Vdm while an to the *26.742.948 debt—which, according to the annual report from the Treasury, now exuta-.fi of , but that five or six millions, ha. been created a,nee. ex. «ot .boot a quarter of. million of the old rtubt. and a mil- lion and a thud assumed by Congress cn account of the District of Columbia.
