The main purpose of taxation by the general Go vernment, according to the spirit of the Constitution, undoubtedly is to pay the debts and to provide for the common defence and general welfare of the Union, by the means confided to Congress. It is freely admitted that this power may and ought to be directly exerted to counteract foreign legislation injurious to our own enterprise, and incidentally to protect our own industry, more especially those branches " necessary to preserve within ourselves the means of national defence and independence." And, although the exerc'se of the power in either case must necessarily depend upon the cause which may call it forth, the powers of taxation imposing large and permanent burdens for the encouragement of particular classes cannot be exercised—and by slender majorities—consi,tently with a proper re gard to the equal rights of all; and it is not to be concealed that a permanent system of high protect ing duties directly tends to build up favoured classes, ultimately prejudicial to the safety of the States. Deeply impressed with these reflections, which are now rendered more urgent by the reduced and limited demands of the public service, I had the honour, at the last Session of Congress, to recom mend a reduction of the duties to the revenue stand ard. The force of these and similar considerations, and of that recommendation, may be supposed to have received at that time the sanction of Congress, and to have formed a motive of the Act of the 14:h of July last, notwithstanding it was not then deemed practicable fully to adopt the recommendation of the department. By that Act, however, besides the positive reduction both in the rate and in the amount of duty, the expediency of adapting the re venue to the expenditure, and of equalising the public burdens, was to a great extent acknowledged, and the oppressive system of minimums was, for the most part, abolished. By that Act, also, those articles principally necessary for the maintenance and clothing of the labourers of the South and South-west were, to a certain degree, relieved ; and, both by its direct enactments, and as incident to its main scope, it encouraged an increased consumption of such articles as depended for their fabrication upon the raw materials and productions of the South. To extend and improve the demand for those productions, by substituting, as far as practi cable in general use, cotton fabrics for those made of materials from other countries, was not an unim portant object of the Bill presented from this depar ment.

The statement already presented shows that the receipts from Customs during the present year, will exceed the estimate submitted at the last Session of Congress. It is true that duties to a considerable amount received in this year, %Oil here after be returned under the 18th section of the Act of the 14th July last for altering the duties on imports. But, as those duties are not to be returned until af ter the 3d of March next, and as in the mean time they will be available means in the Treasury, they will be so treated, and the probable amount of them will be deducted from the estimated amount of the duties receivable in 1833. Notwithstanding the unusually large importations in 1831, those of 1832 have also been large—being estimated for the t year ending on the 30th of September last, at 100,652,677 dollars in value. The exports have somewhat exceeded those during the same period, in 1831—being estimated at 87,037,943 dollars in value; of which 63,074,815 dollars were of do mestic, and 23,963,128 dollars of foreign articles; these results are not only satisfactory in reference to their connection with the finances, but as indicating a prosperous condition of commerce. The duties which accrued during the first three quarters of the present year are estimated at 24,505,000/., and those for the fourth quarter at 4,891,000/. Though the proceeds of these duties will form a considerable portion of the receipts into the Treasury from customs during the year 1833, yet it is to be observed, that, as the terms of credit will be much shortened on importations subsequent to the 3d March next, a greater port ion of the du ties accruing within the year will be received in that year than heretofore. At the same time, the bonds given on previous importations, at the pre sent terms of credit, will continue to fall due as be. fore; and the combined operation of these two causes will increase the proportion which the actual receipts within the year will bear to the accruing duties, relative both to past and future years. From data in possession of the Department, it is estimated that the duties which will be returned out of the revenue of 1833, after the 3d of March next, upon merchandise deposited under the 18th section of the Act of the 14th of July last, may be estimated at 2,500,000 dollars. Though these data are necessarily in a great degree conjectural, they are sufficient for the present purpose in the present estimate. It is proper to be remarked, however, that if a broader operation be given by Congress to the provisions of that section than it has received at the Department, the amount will be proportionably increased. A considerable reduction, estimated at not less than two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, from the amount receivable from customs in the present year, has also resulted from the refunding of duties heretofore collected, and perhaps an equal amount from the cancelling of bonds, failing due on railroad iron, agreeably to the Act of the last Session. But as this has consisted in part of the drawback of du ties taken in previous years, the amount forms no criterion for the future. It has been shown that the actual receipts from public lands during the pre sent year will fall much short of the estimate pre sented at the last Session. The sales were neces sarily affected by the extensive measures adopted in the Western and North-Western country to expel the recent Indian incursions. Owing also to the want of the returns of surveys and plats, which the Surveyors-General found themselves unable to sup , ply, lands expected to have been sold were no brought into market. It is believed, however, that the receipts from this source will be somewhat larger next year. his day was published, complete, in 2 vols.

In the reduction then recommended, the neces sity of adopting the proposed changes to the safety of existing establishments, raised up under the au spices of past legislation, and deeply involving the interests of large portions of the Union, was dis tinctly recognised; and it is still deemed to be not less imperious in the further changes which may be considered expedient. Such necessity, how ever, arises rather from a just and prudent regard to the right and interests of the whole commu nity, than from any absolute pledge of the national faith uncontrolled by circumstances. The prin ciples of our Republican institutions discountenance any system of legislation, not in the nature of a compact, independent of the popular will, tending to defeat the action of the coststituent upon the representative, and to exclude the operation of changes in the condition of the public affairs, or in public opinion, upon the national councils. In this, as in all other instances, the causes which call for the legislative action must determine its duration; and that legislation, especially, which confers favours upon particular classes has no other claim to per manence than its tendency to advance the interests and prosperity of the whole.

To aid American enterprise in every branch of la bour, and, by seasonable encouragement, to foster and preserve within ourselves the means of national de fence and independence, led to the protective system in the infancy of the Government. To counteract the policy and rivalry of foreign nations, and to pre vent their prejudicial influence upon American in dustry; to indemnify the latter against the superior skill and capital and cheapness of labour in older and more experienced countries; and to succour Ameri can capital, which the events of the last war had de voted to manufacturing employments, recommended an occasional extension of that policy, which has been liberally enjoyed by the manufacturing classes since the Act of the 4th of July, 1789. In the course of that time, however, the capital and re sources of the country have augmented in a ratio beyond the expectations and hopes of the most san guine. American enterprise and ingenuity are, every where, proverbially the objects of admiration, and in many instances maintain, without extraordinary aid, a successful competition with those of other na tions. By the abundance of provisions in the United States, and the surprising increase of population, the wide-spread facilities of water-power, the improve ments as well as personal skill in machinery of all kinds, and the general advancement and diffusion of all the lights of arts and science, and the reduction of duty both on the raw material and other articles of consumption, the cost of labour and production have not only been lessened, but in a great mea sure equalized ; and, in this view of the subject, it is not perceived that there can now exist the same necessity for high protecting duties as that which was consulted in our past legislation. To perpe tuate a system of encouragement, growing out of a different state of things, would he to confer ad vantages upon the manufacturing which are nor en joyed by any other branch of labour in the United States, and to convert the favour and bounty of the Government into permanent obligations of right— acquiring strength in proportion to their continuance. It will be conceded that, when the fair rate of profit attendant upon the sagacious employment of capital in the United States is satisfactorily ascer tained, it may be wise so far to protect any im portant branch from the injurious effects of foreign rivalry as may be necessary to preserve for it the same rate of profit us is enjoyed by others. If, how ever, by protective legislation, or otherwise, the proprietor of an actual capital shall be enabled to employ it in manufactures as advantageously and as profitably as in any other branch of labour, all things considered, he could not reasonably demand more. The rate of protection which should enable manufacturing labour, conducted upon borrowed ca pital, to indemnify the lender, and, in addition, to realise the regular rate of profit for itself, would not merely confer undue favour upon the manufacturer, at the expense of every other employment,but bring the influence of the capitalist in direct conflict with the general mass of the people. It might even be apprehended that by such means there would be an accumulation of power in the hands of particular classes, strong enough to control the Governineni itself. If these observations are entitled to re- j spect, little doubt is entertained that, in a tariff framed on proper principles, the reduction of six millions now recommended may, for the most parr, be made upon those commonly deno minated protected articles, without prejudice to the reasonable claims of existing establishments. By the Act of the 14th of July last, the anomaly in the tariff of the United States, by which heavy and burdensome duties were imposed upon the raw ma terial, and especially upon the article of wool, wa continued; and the necessity was thereby created of retaining upon the manufactured article a higher de gree of protection than would otherwise have bees, necessary. An adherence to this anomaly, instead of equalizing tie* burdens of the people, augment' According to the best judgment the Department is able to form on the subject, the receipts into the Treasury from all sources, during the year 1833, may be estimated at 21,000,000 dollars, viz.— Dols.

During the year 1833, however, the moneys which have been received in the Treasury from Den mark, within the two last and present years, for the payment of the Indemnities due to American citizens under the Convention, will be payable, estimated at Which, added to the expenditures, will make the aggregate charge upon the Treasury for the year exclusive of reimbursement of the Public Debt 18,332,577 35 In the year 1833, the first instalment, payable under the convention with France, for indemnities to American citizens, will also be received into the Treasury, though it will form no part of the dis posable means. Taking an average of the importa tions for the last six ye ars as a probable criterion of the ordinary importations for some years to come, the revenue from customs, at the rates of duty pay able after the 3d of March next, may be estimated eighteen millions annually. The public lands, bank dividends, and other incidental receipts, may be estimated at three tnillions—making an aggregate revenue of about twenty-one millions a year. In the last annual report on the state of the finances, the probable expenses for all objects, other than the public debt, were estimated at fifteen millions. This is still believed to be a fair estimate ; and if so there will be annual surplus of six millions of dollars. Still, firmly convinced of the truth of the reasons then presented for a reduction of the revenue to the wants of the Government, I am again urged, by a sense of duty, to suggest that a further reduction of six millions of dollars be made, to take effect after the year 1833. Whether that shall consist altoge ther of a diminution of the duties on imposts, or partly of a relinquishment of the public lands as a source of revenue, as then suggested, it will be for the wisdom of Congress to determine. Without adverting in unnecessary details to the considerations in favour of lessening the existing duties, which I had the honour to present, as well in the last annual report as in that called for by special resolutions of the House of Representatives, I deem it proper to observe that, in my own mind, these considerations have lost none of their force, but have derived new weight from subsequent reflection. The purity and simplicity of the institutions under which it has pleased Providence to make us a great and pros perous nation ; the few objects—and those of a ge neral nature—to which the powers of the Federal Government can be appropriately applied; and the great diversity of interests, which, from their local and geographical position, prevail in the several States composing the Union, imperiously require that the amount of the public expenditure should be regulated by a prudent economy, and that no greater amount of evenue should be collected from the [... 4 TUE PURE PATENT BRANDY. tT .., and those who prefer Foreign productions '''NAc ' T avY Duties encourage the consumption of ' ll Peri t i ,:'RANDY !

Proper attention to the facility and cheapness of producing, and the amount actually produced, of the raw material in the United States, and an examination of the information collected by this department, and transmitted to the House of Representatives at their last Session will show that, in the extension of mauufactures, and in the aug mentation of a sure market, the producer of the raw material has long since been in a condition to dis pense with a great portion of the protection hereto. fore afforded. By the same information it will ap pear that, by relieving the manufacturer from the burden of the high duty upon the raw material, the existing duties may be very materially reduced, and gradually removed, consistently with a just regard to the interests which have so long enjoyed the ad vantages of the protective system. By these considerations, and the proud and grati fying fact that there no longer exists any public debt requirin g the present amount of revenue after the ensuing year, the question is submitted to the Le eislatute, whether they will continue to raise from the people of the United States six millions of dol lars annually, beyond any demand for the public ser vice, that favours which have been so long enjoyed, and which may soon be dispensed with, without detriment to the national safety or independence, duly sen s ibl e t h at t h e d ec i s i on of this question be may be indefinit e ly cont i nue d ? Th e un d ers i gned is longs properly to Congress. The duty, however, enjoined on him by the laws to digest and prepare plans for the improvement and management of the revenue and for the support of public credit, not less than the deep solicitude he feels for the safety of our common country, have urged him to present it, with his own reflections, for the consideration of the Legislature. In the decision of this question, the present crisis in the United States, pregnant with the deepest interest, must have its weight —an inte rest arising not so much from an apprehension of weakness in the laws, or of inability to execute them, as from a universal conviction, throughout a large portion of the Union, of the necessity of a change, and of the propriety of paying a reasonable deference to that opinion. The harmony and brotherly affection of the citizens of different parts of this great Republic, if not the preser vation of the Union itself, appeal to the patriot and statesmen for the exercise of their highest qualities, in 3egulating the burdens of the people consistently with the equal rights of all and in rendering the laws not less free and equal than the institutions under which they ate enacted. The occasion invokes the spirit of liberal concession and compromise which laid the foundations of our inestimable Union ; and, on such an occasion, pa triotism requires that no one interest should exact more than may be consistent with the welfure of the whole. Such an appeal comes with force to all, but, in an essential manner, may be made to those who have so long reaped the advantages of those burdens, from which their brethren throughout the Union, after having submitted to them, while the public obligations and the national defence and hi dependence required it, now ask to be relieved. If this appeal do not find a response in a wise and pa triotic moderation, there will be no efficacy in ti a moral force on which the republican institution; of the Union repose. The sleepless solicitude of the Father of his country has multiplied lessons of pa triotic duty, but none of greater emphasis and perti nencev d t to n constitutio na l o f a in the pr esent cr i sis, t h an i n his admonition that " it is indispensable , on all occasi ons , to un i te ,vlveittsh of a Government,steadyandfir the fullest firm adherence reti c e e dispo sition, as far as may be practicable, to consult the wishes of every part of the community, and to lay the foundations of the public administration in the affections of the people." The operation of the 18th section of the Act of the 14th of July last, according to the construction given to it at the Treasury, being in some respects different from that which the merchants concered con sider important to their interests, it is deemed proper to bring the subject before the attention of Congress, that if, owing to any defect in the law or any error in the tonstruction, the intentions of the Legislature have sot been carried into effect, the necessary remedy may be applied. By that section the several articles enumerated in the Act, whether imported before or after the passing thereof; were authorized to be put into the Custom-house stores, and such as remained under the control of the pro per officer of the Customs on the 3d of March next, were subjected to no higher duties than if imported after that day ; and the duties, or any part thereof, which may have been paid on such articles, were to be refunded to the person importing and depositing the same. And the Secretary of the Treasury was authorized to prescribe such rules and regulations as night be necessary to carry the section into effect. En executing the section, the fullest disposition was felt to consult the interest and convenience of the merchants; but it was perceived that an unlimited construction of its terms was calculated not merely to conflict with the several members of the same section, and with other sections of the Act, but to disturb the financial arrangements of the Government and postpone the payment of the public debt. In the last annual report from this Department, as well as in that prepared by direction of the House of Re presentatives, and accompanying the bill which formed the chief basis of the Act of the 14th of July, it was stated that the existing obligations of the Government, not less than the interests of the community, forbade a reduction of the present duties earlier than the 3d of March, 1833; and by the 2d section of the Act this recommendation was distinctly recognised and adopted. Without some litnitation, as to the retrospective operation of the 18th section, the object of the 2d section would not have been defeated, but the Act itself would in fact have been rendered operative in all past time, so far as con cerned any goods in the original packages, no matter when imported; and the owners, whether importers or retailers, in all parts of the country, would have had a right to deposit them in the Custom-house stores, and claim a refunding of the duties. By one of the provisions of the 18th section, the authority to refund duties which bad been paid on articles deposited, is expressly confined to the persons " importing and depositing the same;" thus treating the importer and depositor as identical. And as it is not reasonable to suppose that the right to deposit was greater than that to claim a refunding of the duties, the words " importer or °eller" in other parts of the section were treated as synonymous. These terms, moreover, throughout the revenue iaws refer to importation, and arc intended to signify the person. importing, whether the actual proprietor, agent, or the consignee. It is obvious, also, that by this construction the terms importer or owner not only receive their usual revenue meaning, but are reconciled with those of importer and depositor; which could not be, if the conjunction were to receive a disjunctive interpretation. It was, therefore, held that goods could be deposited only by the importer. As the Act contained no appropriation for draw ing money out of the Treasury for repaying the duties authorized to be refunded, the department was fully warranted in interpreting the 18th section, as applying to those duties only which may have been paid to the collector after the passing of the A.ct, and, consequently, in limiting the right of dew push to the goods on which those duties accrued. But, from a desire to give the section as liberal a construction as was consistent with all the other ob jects of the Act, it was allowed to apply to the whole of any importation on which any pert of the duties remained unpaid at the date of the law- And, to make this construction operate as equally and favourably among the importers generally, as might be, it was allowed to include those goods, also, upon which the duties had been paid in cash provided that, by the terms of credit allowed by the law, fresh duties on any part of them would not have been payable until after the date of the law. It is not b e li eve d, h owever , t h a t any construction of the secti on , w hich will not a d m i t of the deposit we ° im it p e orted, will be satisfact ory to of goods when in original p ac k ages, whether in the h no an m ds at o t f er the h inniP r ' or of any ot h er person, and .he owners of 5 ugh _ • T. 1 PRIZES AND PRESENTS.

PREACHING IN AN UNLICENSED CHAPEL. —ln the Arches Court, yesterday, Dr. ADDAMS mo;ed. the Court to pronounce the Rev. Dr.W.mcox in contempt, for continuing to perform Divine Service m St. John' s Chapel, Hampstead, without a license. The case lied already been brought before the Court, by the Rev. Dr. Whirs, curate of Hempstead, and Dr. WILCOX had been admonished not to continue the performance of Divine Service in the chapel. He, however had paid no attentio❑ to this, and he officiated on Christmas day last. Dr. HAGGARD (for Dr. Wilcox) said, his client had com mitted no moral offence; he had a large congregation, and unless the accommodation the chapel afforded was conti nued, a great number of the inhabitants of Hampstead would be prevented from attending Divine Service. The first cause was now in course of appeal.—Sir J. NacitoLL said Dr. WILCOX had committed a direct moral offence in continuing to preach in the chapel, in violation of the law. The decree of contempt could not, however, be grarred, if the Rev. Gentlemar. was about to ap F eal tr, a • mperigr Court, AMERICA, OFFICIAL REPORT on the FINANCE, In obedience to the directions of the " Act Sup plementary to the Act to establish the Treasury Department," the Secretary of the Treasury re spectfully submits the following Report :- 1 —OF THE PUBLIC REVENUE AND EXPENDITURES.

The appropriations remaining unsatisfied at the close of the year, are estimated at 6,308,421 dols. 25c.; but of this amount it is estimated by the pro per departments-- 1. That the sum of 5,475,202 dols. 26c. only will be required for the objects for which they were ap propriated. 2. That the sum of 652,198 dols. 27c, will not be required, and may therefore be considered as an excess of appropriation, and is proposed to be ap plied, without being re-appropriated, in aid of the service of the year 1833, as will more fully appear when the estimates of the appropriations for that year are presented. 3. That the sum of 181,020 dols. 72c. will be carried to the surplus fund, either because the ob jects for which it was appropriated are completed, or because these moneys will not be required for, or can no longer be applied to them. 11.—OF THE PUBLIC DEBT. The Disbursements on account of the public debt Dols. during the year 1832, will amount, as has been already shown, to 18,080,057 46 Of which there will have been ap- Dols. plied to the payment of principal... 17,302,410 82 And to interest 717,646 64 Of this sum, all over the annual appropriation of ten millions of dollars will have been applied, with the President's sanction, under the discretionary authority, granted by the Act of the 24th of April, 1830. The stocks which will have been redeemed, by the application of this sum, during the year, are as follow : The residue of the four and a half per cent. stock, issued under the Act of the 2lth of May, 1824, being the last of the stock issued for the purchase Dols. of Florida 1,739,524 01 The whole of the three per cent. stock, issued un der the Act of the 4th of August, 1790, being the last of the funded debt of the revolution 13,296,705 76 One half of the exchanged four and a half per cent. stock, issued under the Act of the 2(itli of May, 1824 2,227,363 97 And the whole of the exchanged five per cent stock, issued under the Act of the 20th of April, 189. Which two last mentioned stocks are parts of the debt arising out of the late war. Also certain portions of the old registered debt, which have been presented for payment, being part of the unfunded debt of the revolution 237 84 The whole of the public debt, which, by the terms of the several loans, the United States have a right to redeem up to the Ist of January next, will have been then paid off: making the entire sum of about 58 millions of dollars, applied to the debt since the 4th of March, 1829. On the Ist of January next the pub lic debt will be reduced to—viz 1. The funded debt amounts to 6,962,660 28 Cotiiset:l.nfi.:f.dtc o heflv t e h ter cents issuer u It - 301, anti redeemable utter the lai of January, 1835 4,735,296 342 And the residue of the exchanged four and a half per cents issued under the Act of the 26th May, 1824, and redeemable after the 31st of December, 1833 '2. The unfunded debt amounted to Consisting of the registered debt, being claims registered prior to the year 1798, for services and supplies during the Revolutionary War Treasury Notes, issued during the late war And Mississippi Stock Dols. 27,60'2 46 Dols. 7,001,698 83 39,0: , -S 55 7,116 00 4,320 09 These three last sums, composing the unfunded debt, are payable on the presentation of the certifi cates. After the Ist of January next, no part of the public debt, except the remaining fragments of the unfunded debt, of which only small portions are oc casionally presented, will be redeemable before the following year; and, though there will be in the Treasury during the year ample means to discharge the whole debt, they zan be applied only to the pur chase of stock at the market price. It is now mani fest that if the Bank shares had been sold, and the proceeds applied to this object, the entire debt might, in this manner, have been extinguished within the present year. But, it is nevertheless pleasing to reflect that after the present year it may be consi ' dered as only a nominal debt ; as the Bank shares, which have been actually paid for within the last four years by the redemption of the stock subscribed for them, are greater in value than the whole amount of that debt ; and the debt itself ceases to be a burden, inasmuch as the dividends derived from the Bank shares yield more to the Treasury than will be requited to pay the interest. The debt may, therefore, be considered as substantially ex tinguished after the Ist day of January next ; which is earlier than was looked for under the' most prosperous and economical administiation of our affairs that could have been anticipated. It will, nevertheless, begratifying to the national pride that every thing having the appearance of debt,should
