The statement (Bti exhibits, in detail, the several
species of metchsorLze, and other sources from

Ithich that ?moue was collected during the year
1808 ; and the statement (A) gives a comparative
view of the i Aiportations and re-exportations of like
species of merchandise for the years 1807 and
1808 ; sheering thereby, distinctly, the effect of
foreign aggressious, and commercial restrictions, ou
the importation of foreign articles.
From the retires already received for the three
first quarters of this present year, and from the ge
tisral knowledge of the importations made during
the two last mouths, it is believed, that the gross
amount of duties ou tnercharidize, imported dur-
ing the whole year, will, after deducting the ex-
penses of collection, amount to about 10,000,000
of dollars.

But u the debentures issued on account of re-
exportations (principally of colonial produce) will
amount to about 3,500.000 dollars, the net revenue,
accrued during the year NO% cannot be estimated
at more than six millions and a half.

It appears, by the statement (C) that the sales of
public Loath bare, during the year ending on the
30th September, 1809, amounted to 1.13,000 acres;
and the payments by purchasers to near 500,000
dollars. The proceeds of sales i.i the Mississippi
territory being, after deducting the surveying and
other iocidental expenses, appropriated, in the first
place, to the payment of a surf of 1,250.000 dol-
lars ,to the State of Georgia, are distinctly Stated.
It appears by the statement (U) that the payments
on account of the principal of the public debt, have,
during the same period, amounted to near 6,730,000
dollars, the reimbursement of the eight per cent.
stock having taken place on the Ist of January
last. But the aggregate of paymeateen account of
principal and interest will not, for the two years,
1808 and 1809, exceed the sum of sixteen millions
of dollari appropriated by law. •
The same statement 'hews, that about 34,799,000
dollars of the principal of the debt have been reim-
bursed during the eight years and a half commen.
cing on the Ist of April, 1801, and ending on the
30th September, 1809: exclusively of more than
six millions of dollar.. paid in conformity with the
provisions of the Convention of Great Britain. and •
of the Louisiana Convention.

annual report.

But should that measure be adopted, it *null
not, on account of the terms of credit alloietd
the payment of duties, supersede the necessity of
a loan fur the service of the year 1810, Co
mensurute with the extent of those establ:s',.
ments, and with the appropriations whielt
be made fur their support by Congress. No pre.
cise hula is suggested, since this must vary accuid,
ing to the plans which may be adopted in
tient to foreign nations, and will particularly ‘!.,
pend an the decision of Cant-ties, on the questili
of war or peace. It is sufficient to state, that tl
the actual expenditure of the year lei°, fur elf
military and sacral purposes, should be estinial-d
at the same sum which oas disbursed by the Tit:,
sury for these objects, during the year ending fis
the Seth September, iBuj, and exceeding, as above
stated, six millions of dollars, the deficiency, at.
cording to the preceding estimates, would slued
to three millions; on which supposition it wou4
seem prudent, in order to provide• against any dr
ficiency in the receipts, beyond what has been est..
mated, to authorise a loan of four milieus of dollais.
—ln the event of war, the necessity of renderibe
efficient, and of calling for that purpose into aches
all the resources of the country, is to.) obvious to re.
quire any comment. On that subject nothing 4111

atalesents, asoi at fixed period*, after the return of
peace, mast constitute the principal resource la
.defraying the extraordinary expenses of the sir.
For the support of public credit, the basis on whielt
rests the practicability of obtaining loans on res.
sonable terms, it appears necessary that the revenue
should, ii the meanwhile. be equal to the iutrrest
on the public debt, including that on the new
Immo, and to All the cuirent expenses of Going-
, .ment, calculated on a peace establishment, or, far
the presealr, to gloat eight millions of dollars. A.
immediate and considerable increase of the es.
istiu,g duties will, it is believed, be requante far
that purpose. in order to cover the defakatioa
which a maritime war must necessarily predate is s

That increase appears preferable in the present
situition of the United States to any ether swine,

objection of its encouraging smuggling. It is oldf
in the event of that revenue being still more affected
by a war than is apprehended, that • resort to

necessary.
