TIIE PR4SIDENTS SPERCM . ravaI.CITIWIP OP. =II 4113 . 4211 4 . AND HOTS! or RUPPItiVITA. vrts ...Many important sizbjeiti will claim your attention during t be present Session, of which I shall endeavour to give, in aid of rut ti , eons, a jot idea in this communkatiott. I undertake t his dut/ w i t h di ffi dence, froniAbe nit Melt of the interests on b I bare to neat v and of theitgrue Importance to every par_ : d o er Union. I enter on it with sea,* from a thorough con. „ L ., i lia t here never was a period, since the establishment of "v" — k o , when,' regarding the condition of the civilized : r e ed, sod Its beating be us, there was greater necessity for devo ow if, tie public servants to their respective duties, or for virtue, sat • , ca d union, in our constituents. • P ma w bs you a pew Coogress, I deem it proper to present this ow driblie affairiln greater . detail than • might otherwise be ne. 0 ,,, r , f , Ida it, howe ver, with peculiar satisfaction, from a know ka.. tilat, in t ei s ' ee spect, I shall simply more folly with thee sound ti:ple, of s ee Government. The People being-swath us cede riinly eke s w erlign, it is indispenuble that full information be laid wore t e e m on all important subjects, to enable them to.exercise t hat high power with complete effect. If kept in the dark, they rust he incompetent to it. We are all liable to error, and those who arc e ngaged in, the management of public affairs are mote ta bu to excitement, and to be led astray by their particula r i n . Noes mo d passions, than the great body of our constituents, who. wag a e o ese, in the pursuit of their ordinary avocations, are aL2 b ie deeply interested spectieors of events, and of the conduct ct due who ate parties to them. every department of Government, and every indL To die people, wain each, are responsible, and the more full their information, 4, better they ran judge of the wisdom of the polity pursued, end ' e i t h e c onduct of each in regard to it. From their dispassionate, • ; j ehe et, much aid may always be obtained,. while their approbe ,i will form the greatest incentive and most gratifying reward forvinuous actions, and the dread of their censure the best security' g eed the abuse of their confidence. Their interests, in all vital we ns., arethe same, and the bond by sentiment, as well üby be i est, will be proportionably strengthened as they are better in fueled of the real state of public affairs, especially In difficult con jcacteres. It is by such knowledge that local prejudices and jea- F rp i e , art surmounted, and 'that a national policy, extending its mi t ring cue and protection to all the great interests of our Union, blamed-and steadily adhered to. A precise knowledge of our relations with foreign Powers, as re_ 'terms our negotiations and transactions with each, is thought to be ytificalaly necessary. .Equally necessary is it, that we should form just estimate of our resources, revenue, and progress in every kind el improvement connected with the national prosperity and public defence. It is by rendering justice to other nations, that We may meet it from them. It is by our ability to resent injuries and re item swoop, that we Tway avoid them. The Commissioners under tie fifth Article of the Treaty of Ghent, having disagreed in their apirlione respecting that portion of the boundary-between the terri twies of the United States and of Great Britain,' the establishment %italic], had been Submitted to them, . have made their rupee ire repress, in compliance with that article, that the same might' be referred to the decision of a friendly Power. It being mani kit however, that' it would be difficult, if not impossible, for try Power to perform that office, without great delay and rah inconvenience to itself, a proposal has been made by this Gererarnent, and acceded to by that of Great Britain, to endea nu to establish that boundary by amicable negotiation. It 'p rairie, from long experience, that no satisfactory arrangement odd be formed of the commercial intercourse between the United KU and 'the British Colonies in this hemisphere, by legislative are laile each party pursued its own course, without agreement sreeettert with the other a Farmed has been made to the British nevesument to rte;ulate this commerce by Treaty, as it has been to :range, in like manner, the just claims of the citizens of the United hem inhabiting the States and territories bordering on the lakes sad rivers which empty into the St. Lawrence, to the navigation of eat river to the ocean. For these and other objects of high import rote the interests of both parties, a• negotiation has been opened ee the Uritibh Gown:tient, which, it is hoped, will have a sub teen./ result. . .. The Commissioners under the sixth and seventh Artieles of the 7iegy of Ghent, having successfully closed theirlandars in relation b the sixth, have proceeded to the discharge of those relating to the wrath. Theis: progress in the extensive survey required for the Rdermance of their duties, justifies the presumption that it wiEbe useilsted in the ensuing year. thenegociatiou ethic's had been long depending with the Frenclr tent on several inlet - want subjects, and particularly for a jot Indemnity for losses sustained in the late Wars by the citizens lithe United States, under unjustifiable seizures and tonfiscations dill& property, has not, as yet, had the desired effect. As this thks rests upon the same principle with others which have bil l adraitastby the French Governmeet, it is not perceived on itsfelk *greends it can •be rejected. A Minister will be appointed to Nue intfressme the ftegeciation on this and other subjects which my arise bitereen the two nations. fade proposal of the Rusaian intperial Government, made' trough the Minister of the Emperor residing here, a full power aid Ineractions have been transmitted In the Alialster of the Wile. States 'at St. Petersburgh, to arrange, by amicable negocia lisa, the respective rights and interests of the two nations in the with west coast of this continent. A similar proposed has been "kb, his Imperial Majesty, to the Government of Great Britain, whids las likewhe been acceded- to. The Government olthe UAW Ritter has been desirous, by this friendly proceeding, of elndllaing the great value which they have invariably attached to the friendship of the Emperor, and their solicitude to cultivate the ben Inderstanding with his Government. In the discussions which Nis Interest has given rise t 9, and in the arrangements by which they may terminate, the occasion has been judged proper for assert , as a principle in which the rights and interests of the United hues are involved, that the American Continents, by the free. and independent condition which they have assumed and maintain, are Hulett! net to be considered as subjects for future colonization tit any European Power. Sue the close of the . last Session of Congress, the Commissioners oebitutors for ascertaining and determining the amount of in-, demnileation which may be due to citizens of the United States, totter the decision of hi. Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Russia, na coobeerafty to the Convention concluded at St. Petersbargle, on , the 12th of Judy, 18'22, have asvembled in this city, and organized t htuloeives at a Huard for the performance of the duties assigned to 6 "tn by that Treaty. The commission constituted under the eleventh article of the treaty of the etct of February, 1919. between t he United States Ind Spain, is also in Session here ; and as the term of three years heated by the treaty for the execution of the Mut t will expire hie fire the period of the next regular meeting of Congress, the atten tion Of the Legislature will be drawn to the measures which miy be atte Nerf to accomplish the object far which the conamiasion etas imitated. la ralltnanie with a resolution of the Home of, Representatives, 11 44 1 _ as Itssii last Session, btu:sedans hays been given Wall the itainers of.tde %laced States, aocredised to the Powers of Eutope I " l ttvilia, to propose she ressotligen et she Africa.' slave trade, TY tiepin I under the denomination, and banning en its parr thlesto die revisionist of piracy.

Instructions have accordingly been gives to ear Ministers to France, Resale, and Great Britain, to make thole proposals to their respecdve Governments ; and when the friends of huma nity reflect on the essential amelioration to the condition of the human race, which would wank from the &nation of private war on the sea, and on the great facility by which it might be accom plished, requiring only the consent of a few Sovereigns, an earnest hope is indulged that these overtures will meet with an attention, , animated by the spirit is which they were made, and that they will ultimately be successful. The Ministers who were appointed to the Republics of Colom bia and Buenos Ayres, during the last Session of Congress, pro ceeded aho . rtly afterwards, to their destinations. Of their arrival , r there official intelligence has not yet been received. The Minister appointed to the Republic of Chili will sail in a few days. An early appointment will also be madc to Mexico. A Minister has been received from Colombia, and other • Governments have been in formed that Ministers or Diplomatic- Agents of inferior grade, ;would be received from each, according as Om might prefer the one or the other. The Minister appointed tp Spain proceeded, soon after his ap..l *ointment, for Cadiz, the residence of the Sovereign to whom he was accredited. In approaching that port, the frigate which con veyed him was warned off by the Commander of the French squadron _ _ by which it was blockaded, and not permitted to enter, although apprised by the Captain of the frigate, of the public character of the person whom he had on koard, the landing of whom was the sole object of his proposed entry. This act being considered an in fringtment of the rights of Ambassadors and of Nations, will form a just cause of complaint to the Government of France, against the officer by whom it was committed. The actual condition of the Public Finances more than realises the favourable anticipations that were entertained of it at the open. ing of the last Session of Congress. ass the Ist of January, there was a balance in the Treasury of foot millions two hundred and thirty-seven thousand four hundred attd twenty-seven dollars, and fitty.five cents. From that time to the 30th of September, the receipts amounted to upwards of 16,100,000 dollars, and the ex puiditure to 11,400,000 dollars. During the fourth quarter of t year, it is estimated that the recelpte will, at least, equal the expen ditures, and that there will remain in the Treasury, on the lst . day of January next, a surplus of neatly 9,000,000 of dollars. On the Ist of January, 1825, a large amount of the war debt, and a part of the revolutionary debt, become redeemable. AdZitional portions of the former will continue to become redeemable, an nually, until the year 1835. -it is believed, however, that if the Uuited States remain at peace, that whole of that debt may be re deemed.by the ordinary revenue of those years during that period under the provision of the Act of March, 1917, creating the Sinking Fund, and in that ease the only part of the debt that will re ain after the year .1 935, will be seven millions of five percent. stock' subscribed to the Bank of the United States, and the three per.eent. revolutionary debt, amounting to thirteen millions two hundred ind ninety-six thousand and ninety-alas dollars and di cents, both of whiCh arc redeemable at the pleasure of the Government. The state of - the army in its organisation and discipline; has been gradually inepraviog for several years, and has now attained a high degree of perfection. - The Idilitary disbursements have been' regularly made, snd the accounts regularly and promptly - rendered foreettlement. The supplies of various dent ptions have been of good quality and regularl y issued at all the b oats. A system of ecoorMy and accountability has beat introdud into every branch of the service, which admits et little 'deadens' improvement. This dosirable • state has been attained hi the act emerged:birth, staff of the army, passed on the 11th of April, 1.18. The monies appropriated for fortaleadons have been snidely and economically applied, and all the works advanced as rapidly as the amount appropriated would admit. Three important weeks will be completed In the 'course of this year; that Is,-Port Washing ton, Fort Deliware, and the Feet at the Bigolets, in Louisiana. The Board of F.aleieeers, and- the Topographical Corps, have b. eels constant and active service, in surveying the coast, and projecting the works necessary for its defence. The Slithery Academy has itpined a degree of perfection •In its discipline and 'minutiae. equal, as is believed, to any institudoe of its kind in sari esosar :The money appropriated for the use of the Ordoance &pad pent, has been regularly and economically applied. The fabrics- Iles of arms at the national irinories, and by contract with the Depwtment, has been gradually inettreirint in piney and cheapness.

Several of the party were Wel sad wounded, and their property taken or destroyed, Colonel LeevenWoeth, who commanded Fort Atkinson at the Council Bluffs, the most Western post, apprehending that the hoe. tile spirit af the Blearees.would extend to ether tribes in that quar ter, and that thereby the Wee of the waders on the Missouri, and the peace of the frontier would be endanggred, took lnintithitte measares!to check the evil. .. • With a detachnuot of the regiment seitAinkiat the Bluffs, he , ieneesdally attacked the Pearce village, and it is hoped that such at finsinig. jos been mnde.on Ikw, as well as on ,the other tribes ies the Migeeviri, as will pavan a returnee, of future hostility.

It is thought that this imp .3ant sub-, ism, in all its branches, merits the attention of Congress. The Report of the Secretary of the Navy„which is now com municated, furnishes an account of the administration of that De partment,-for the three first quarters of the present year, with the progress made in augrnentlig the navy, and the °unser in which the vessels in commission have been employed: The usual force has been maintained in the Mediterranean Sea, the Pacific Ocean, and along the Atlantic Coast, and has afforded the necessary protection to our commerce In those seas. ' In the West Indies and the Gulf of Mexico our naval force has been augmented, by the addition of several small vessels, provided for by the " Act authorizing an additional Nave Force for the sup pressine of Piracy,", passed by Congress at their last Session. That armament has been eminently successful la the accomplishment of is object. The piracies by which our commercein hood of the bland of Cuba bad been afflicted, hive beets repressed, and the confidence of our merchants in igteat 'measure restored, The patriolic zeal and ernerpriseof.Conariindore Porter.to whom the command of the expedition was confided, has been fully se conded by the officers and men under his command. And, in re. Pectin& with highsatisfsction on the honourable manner in which they have sustained the reputation of their country audits navy; the% sentiment is alloyed only by a concern, that in the fulfilment of that arduous service, the diseases inadent to the season and to the cli mate in which it was discharged, have deprived the nation of navy useful lives, and smolt their; of several Officers of great promise, -t - In the month of August a very malignant fever made it appear ance at Thompson); Islaid, which threatened the destruction of • our station there. Many perished, and the CommandinkOfficer was severely attacked. Uncertain ai to his fate, and knowing; that most of the Medical Officers had been rendered incapable M discharging their duties, it was thought expedient to send to that post an Officer of rank and experience, with several skilful sur geons, to ascertain the origin of the, fever, and the probability of its recurrence there In future seasons; to furnish every assistance to those who were suffering, and, if practicable, to avoid the necessity of absedonillg so important a statioe., Commodore Rogers, with a promptitude which did him honour, cheerfully accepted that trust, an: has discharged it in the manner anticipated fro his skill and -patriotism. Betbre his arrival, Commodore Porter, with the greater part of the suadrort, had removed from the Iskind, and returned to the United States,. In consequence of the prevailing sickness..

They have been committed there tinder the abusieoissue of Spanish contailasioes. At an early period of the present year, remonstrances were made to the Governor of that Island, by an spot who was sent ,for the porpoise, against those , rages on the peaceful commerce of the United States, of wide! many had occurred.

After • the clotfi was removed, the health of his Majesty was given from the Chair, prefaced by srime handsome compliments to kis character and deportment while on a recent visit, and which had elide ti b ed hint to his corm trymen of all ranks in this plat of the kingdom. T , :e ' health of the Dukes of Yone and CLanes:ce, with ti - e British Army and Navy, were afterwards given, a:4. eompanied by the appropriate music. The CHAIRMAN, in rising to propose the hcalth.of the members of the Border Society, gave a clear arid; distinct view of the objects of the association, and ad. . verted to the 'beneficial effe'cts which such Meeting's. might be expected to produce; not oely promoting and cementing private friendships (those friunded on local attachments being generally the strongest and most ,lasting), but also by perpetuating and placing before us the heroic _deeds and eleeated character of our epees ' tors, their descendants might be thereby excited to emu• late their actions, and practise their virtues. This speech, *IAA was not more admired for the just and profound sentiments it contained, • than for the energy ' and eloquence with which it was delivered, was ex trernely well received. A long list of toasts followed, amongst which wat that of Sir Walter • Se'ott. This was most rapturously received, and great • and cohtinued cheering followed-. Air, " Blue BUnnets over the . Border." The " Memory of Dr. Leyden" was given by Mr. DARLING!, 'accompanied by some well-merited praises on the great natural powers and high 'acquirements of • that eminent scholar and poet. • The ".Health of the Ettrick Shepherd" was also eyed by the-same Gentleman, and drank with the greatest • applause. The " Me:no:y-4 the Laird-of Merchlstoe "by the Chairman. Mr. Brtowe, on proposing the " Memory of Burns," passed a high eulogium on the character of that great poet, and entered into a curious dissertation, how far the natural aspect of the-country .might influence the formation of character. He considered the Border so beautifully diversified by hill - and dale, wood and screens, as eminently calculated for the production of poetry, and it might well be styled the land of song. • On the health of the author of " Waverley" being given, a Gentleman present, whom we consider as only second' to the jest authority, said that the scene of the forthcoming novel' from the same pen was not in the north, as erroneously stated in some of the Newspapers, but that it lay on the Border*. During the whole evening the greatest cordialitt and good humour prevailed, and the conviviality of the ' leeting was kept up to a late hour, when the company separated, highly pleased with their evening's enter- '• - aliment and with each otb4r. Indeed, from the spirit which 'seemed to animate the minds of all present, we ;augur well of the" future success of this Society. Al- Olough yet in its infancy, it seems to be rapidly gain ing strength, and from the number and reipectability of the Committee' nominated for the ensuing year, •every exertion may be expected, arid the•ulti mate pro. sperity of the Societyvonfidently anticipated. _t ~ • , 4 422 1110 it PETTY E.SYIONS6 DROMBRA St . . fhiti-eiaftast, a court of retry Session was held ip ribeCoert think, six Alagi:trares prOding. .. . . • . . ctifttous cngit. .• . 1 ' The Si"( apse .called 'on was a prosecution again* , ltdsiard o Farr 1, .p 1 the Sok Tema, at.
