As the expenditure rnnnut be reduced,
(he i,ext inquiry is, whether some object
n| general li ilny. in which every portion
ol thescoiintry has an interest, may noi
bo selected, as a fixed and permanent sub
ject on which to expeuil the surplus reve
nue.
Your committee admit that if such an
object ol expi nditnre could be selected.
under a well regulated system of disburse
nients. established by law. much of the
patronage incident to the ptes-nt loose
and unregulated disbursements, might b,
curtailed, hut flicy are at a fuss to find
such an object Internal improvement
approaches the neatest, but thete is oppo
sed to it with ihe object in view, instiu
erable objections. To pass by the fnrmi
dable difficulty, the long established di
v«ispv of opinion, as to its constitutional
itv, which divides the two great section*
of the country experienc has shown that
there is no exnenditur* so little snsce it
hie of being regulated by law; none call u
lated ‘o excite deeper c n-petition, or to
enlist a greater number in its f ivor, in pro
portion to the amount expended; and of
course, calculated to a'd more to Kxeon
live patronage. To these, au additional
objection of a recent origin may be added.
Your romtnittee allude to the Executive
vpto as appli'd 'o internal im|irovemen s.
the effects of which has been to increase
very considerably his power and patronage
in reference to this branch of expenditure.
The Executive, in his Vet" Message, as
sumes the ground, that internal impr-.v
mentsmay.or may cot,beconstitution.V,nc
eoi ding to each partieul ir ooje t; the dis
tinction to he determined by him in the
exercise of his constitutional function, of
giving or witholding his approval to acts
of Congress; the practical effect of which
is to draw within iiis control the power
nod influence, wh'ch appertain, not only
to the administration, but also to the en
actment of the law; and, ofc-urse. to in
crease in the same degree, his influence
and patronage, in reference to internal
improvements.
In making these remarks, the. object of
‘your committee i9 not to call in quesir.ii
t’nc motive ul the Executive, or bis right
to draw what distinction he may think
just and right in the exercise of his veto
power, or the correctness of t' e listinet
ions in reference to die particular subject
under consideration but simply to exhibit
the full extent of thp objections in selec
ting it as the subj ect on which to expend
the surplus revenue—objections, in their
nature, incapable of being wholly remffv
ed, even by an amendment of the Consti
tution, weic au .iii.uuuiuCut practicable.
Rut, it no subject of expend lure can be
selected, on which the surplus can he
safely expended; and, if neither the reve
nue Bor expenditure can. under existing
circumstances, be reduced, the next in
quiry is, what is 'o he done wiih the sur
plus; which, as has been shown, will prub
ably equal, on an average for the next 8
years, the sum of S9.0o0.000 beyond the
just wants of the Government—a surplus
of which, unless some safe disposition ea.i
be made »ll other means ot reducing the
patronage of the Executive rnUot prove
ineffectual.
which would create the dangerous relit"
ion of debtor nnd creditor between the
(invent limit and the members of lit* Union
Rut suppose this difficulty surmounted,
and that smite stuck perfectly safe, was
selected; there would -till remain another
that could not be surmounted. There
cannot be found a stock, with an interest
sufficiently strong to compete with the
i'.iereais. which, with a large surplus reve
one, " ill ever be found in fav ir of expen
clnurev. It most he perfectly obvious to
all, who have the le ist expelience, or who
will duly reflect on the sobject, that were
a fund sold ted in which lu vest the sur
plus revenue for future u»e, there would
lie found in practice a constant conflict
between the interest in favor ot some local
or favorite scheme of expenditure, and
that in favor of tho stock. Nor can it he
less obvious, that in point of fact, the for
mcr would provo far stronger than the hit
ter. The result is obvious The surplus
he it ever so great, would bn absorbed bv
appropriations, instead ot lining invested
in the sto' k. and the s heme of course,
would, i practice, prove an aboriiion;
which brines ns hark to the origin .1 mq 1
iv; how is the surplus to be diajjose •
until the ekeess sho Id lie reduced to ih
just and economical wants ot the govern
tneniT n
After tiestowing on this question, on
ih,, suecessfcl sold on f which so much
depends, tlte most deliberate attention
your committee, as they have already sia,
ted. can devise lit one means by which it
can lie effected; and tly .^is an amendment
of (he constitution, authorizing the tern
porarv distribution of the surplus revenue
among the States,till the pear 1843,w en
as has been shown,tile income and expen
diture will be equalized.

Your committee are fully aware ofthe ma

Government shou'd collect in me for the
purpose ofsuch distribution, or should dis
tribute a surplus (or the purp se "f per

Your committee are deeply sen ible of
ihe greai difficulty of finding any satisfac
lory solution of 'his question; hut believ
■ng that the ve y existence of our i stitu
lions, and with them ihe liberty of our
country, may depend on the succ ss of
their investigation, ney have carefully
explored the whole ground, aUd the result
of their inquiry is, that but on means
has occurred to them, holding out any
reasonable prospect of success A few
preliminary remarks will be necessary io
explain their views,
Aoiidst all the difficulties of our situa
tion there is one consolation.that the dan
ger from Executive patronage, as fir as
it depends on excess of revenue, must be
temporary. Assuming that the act ol 2d
of March, I$33, will be left undisturbed,
by its provisions ihe income after the
ye r 184'’. is to he reduced to the eco
n mical waots of the G, ver ment. The
Government then is in a srale of passage,
Irom one wiierc Die revenue is exeessive,
to another, in which, at a fixed and no
distant period it will be re uced to its
proper limi's. The difficulty in the inter
tnedi> e time is, that the revenue cannm
be brought down to the expenditure, nor
th" expenditure without great dancer,
raised to th- revenue, f r reasons already
explained Mow is this difficulty to be
overcome? I might seem that tho sim
pie and natural lyeans would he, to vest
,the surplns in some safe and , profitable
stock, to accumulaie for future use; but
the difficulty in such a course, will on ex
amination, b ■ found insuperable.
At the very commencem nt.tn selecting
the stock, there would be great, if nut in
suriiioumable difficulties No one would
think of inves igating the surplus in Bank
Stork, against which there are so maov
and such derisive reasons, that it is not
deemed necessary to state them; nor
would the objections be less decisive
1 against vesting in the stocju of the s'ates
It must Ira obvious on a little reflection,
that the effects of d strihution of ihe sur
plus, would be to place ibe interests of tlte
Stat n all questions of expenditure, in
opposition to expenditure ; as every re
duction of expense would necessarily in
crease the sum to he distributed among
the States The effect of this would be
to convert them, through their interests,
ini.) fxithfu! end vigilant sentinels, on the
aide of economy and accountability ir, the
expenditures of this Government ; and
would thus powerfully tend to restore thp
Government in its fiscal action, to the
plain and honest simplicity of former
days.
WASHING'TO Vrt Bl RTM-D \Y
Yesterday was commemorated as the
Birth Day of our American Father, with
becoming evidences of a sincere regard
for him, whi was “First in War, fust in
Peace, and first in tile Hearts of his cun
trvmen. The commemoration of that
event, was proudly and greatfully fejj| bv
every demonstration which freemen could
evince.
At 12 o'clock, the varitros volunteer
companies ol the city, assembled on the
Bay, where a procession was formed tin
der the command of Col Williams which
marched through the prinvipil streets
until I o’cl 'Cit, when they were thrown
into line, in front of the Monumnat of
(!• «ne mid Pulaski—where s 'lutes were
rad iohouortJthePitiiotic Heroes of lie
Retol ition, thoso who assisted to tear
from us the yoke of foreign oppression.
In tlte Evening there' was a splendid
and brilliant Ball at the Exchange, which
as may be expected, was largely attended
by Die Fair Daughters of America. The
moms were handsomely dceorated with
neatness and style. At 1 o’clock, the at
tendants sat down to one ol Capt. Wilt
berger’s best Suppers ; and aftoran early
hour, rooms were left vacated—the com
pany retiriug to their various domestics
with feeliogs ol perfect satisfaction.
It may perhaps be thought by some that
the power which the distribution among
tht States would bring tn beirragainsi th"
ovnpmliiori-. anil its consequent tendency
to retrench the disbursements ofthe Gov
ernment. would be so stmog a- out only
to curtail useless or improper expenditure
but also the useful and necessary. Such
undoubtedly would be the consequence if
the process were too long continued ; but
in th* present irregular and rxcessive ao
tion ofthe system, when its centripetal
force threatens to concentrate all its pntv
‘•r6 in a single department, the fear, that
the action ol this Government will be too
much reduced by the measure under con
sideratioo. in the short period to which it
is proposed to limit its operation, is «-i h
out just foundation On the contiary. tl
the proposed measure should be applied
in the nre8ei)t diseased state ol the Gov
ernrneot, us effect would be like ttef of
som iiowerlul alterna'ive tnedi ine ojiera
ting just long enough to change the pre
sent morbid action, but not sufficiently
long to superinduce another of an oppo
site chaiacter.
Rut it may he objected that though the
distribution might reduce all useless ex
penditures, it woo'd at the same time .'ive
additional power to the in errsts in tav .r
of taxation. It is not denied tha sue
would be its t-ndenry; and, if the danger
from increased duties, or taxes was, at
this time, as great as that Irom a
surplus revenue, the objection would he
fatal; but it is confidently believed th t
such is not the case. On ihe contrary.in
proposing the measiire.it is assumed th d
the act of 2d march. 1833, will remain tin
disturbed. It fis on the strength ofthia
assumotlon that the measure is proposed,
and as it is believed saflely proposed.
It may, however, be sai l that the dis
tribuiion mav create, orr the part of the
States, -in appetite in its lavor. which mas
ulti oBiely Fad to its adoption, as a per
tnanent measure. It may indeed tend to
excite such an appetite, short as in the pe
riod proposed lor its operation, bu' it is ob
vious that this danger is far more than
countervailed by the fact that the prone*
oil amendment to the Constitution, to an
thoiize tlte distribution, would lace the
power beyond Die reach if legislative on
struntion; and thus -fleet dly preven Be
possibility of its adoption as a permanent
measure; as it cannot be conceived that
three fourths of the States will ever as
sent lo an amendment of the (Jonslitalion
to authorise a distribution, except as an
extraordinary measure applicable to Some
extraordinary condition of the country
like the present.

‘•You will see. by some idle despatches
irom our Minister in France, upon which
an animated discussion took place in the
House that the difficulty with that nation
is not likely to be .djusted ; and u less we
can divert the public mind from the iilen
that there i3 no other modd of redress but
t aut recommcn led by the President we
mus' have war!
Can any thing be so supremely redien
lous. or degrad'mgly servile, as for au A
meriean Congress, the immediate repre
sentatives ol tile people, to entertain the
beliel that they must implicitly obey the
directions oftlte Executive Branch of tlte
Government? Will they nut think (or
them-elves? Will they nut consult the
best interest oftheenuntrv ? Every lime
the subject comes before Congress an o
Pinion seems to (flevail, that • if France
does not comply with the Tro;i y,” we
,.ught to resort to ‘ reprisals,” as recom
mended by the President, or in other words
t o war ; for they will inevitibly result or
that as amity would result from an appro
priatiou to carry the Treay into effbet.
Now this notion ought to be put down
not only here but every where throughout
the country, because if there be a remedy
les. pernicious than war, equally safe com
petent, and honorable. Congress is bound
by every consideration of inter st, justice
and hum mity. tu adopt it
That there is such a remcdy.no man can
doubt, for the Pretidenl himsdl admits it
In his message, lie says that we might r*
sort to egislalion against the commerce of
France, and compel her to do us justice in
that way, and that nothing ptevented him
torn recommending that course, but that
it would injure us as much as France, and
also renew tho strife among the .States on
the Tariff question. This is his opinion;
will any one pretend to say that Congress
is bound by it ? May they not also, com
pare the injuries of War, in reference to
Commerce,and ifyou choose to the pfbba
bio revival ofthe tariff question with the
injuries resulting, as supposed by the
President, fr in retaliatory legislation ;
rnd il in their opinion, tlte former will lie
i li ilely whorls than the bitter, would
they mu b justified in dissenting from ihe
opinion ol the President? And will noi
the people require it of th"in ? Ail that
we want is a proper respect for our rights;
and if we can cut.nni command it without
war, ind without a loss of honor, without
a relinquishment of principle, and, what is
more complete and speedy rr.autier, the
nation will have just cause ol nevere con
detonation of their representatives, if they
do not unapt this remedy, in preference
to "reprisals."

vo r indulgence for:heir correction. In
the note prefixed to the tranMotion, ‘Ro
me..’ is made, by your s mposit r.to s y
'One Poet represent (sonic one . nder
stood) s Jailing upon the sword of her
lover'!!! This, sir, was a gross blunder.
The note, as well as recollected, was as
follows;—“Below. 1 send a translation of
Ovid’s “Pyr.i us Si hisbe.” Atltn’not
strictly a metaphrase or a literal transla
tion, yet, it is believed,'twill convey In
sense oldie Latin author, with few excep
tions. One (exception) may .e instanced
iu the . asc ol Thisbe.whom the (‘Rom o
claims to he no poet) Poet represents as
falling upon the sword ol her lover ” A
difference this, sur ly, “even in your al
lowance,” Mr Prinp-r. The only etVor
ol importance in the translation, occurs in
Die 80th line and fit from the margin,the
word trouble is omitted before 1 air • ’’ for
lack of which, or some other dyssyllahle,
the measure is destroyed. Minor ms-
takes. Hie intelligent reader could readily
