propriation of 10,000,000 dollars for that object, has
rea supplied by the receipts into the Treasury on
account of the arrearage of the direct tale and internal
ties, and- by- the balance of more than 6,000,000
dnilara whirl; was in the Treasemoo the lst,day of
January, 1818.
These temporary sources of supply being nearly
exhausted, the expenditure of the year 4819 meet,
prinCipilty depend opon the receipttinio thelressuir
from the permanent revenue during that year.. As
was anticipated in the last Annual Report, the re-
action produced by the excessive importations oaf.
foreign merchandize, during the years 1815. and
1816, acqoired its greatest force in the year 1817. .
It is presumed that' the revenue which shit)! accrete.
-during the present *ear from imports and •tonnage
1019 be considered as the average amount which will,
be, atep.eally rec.verl 'tom that awes of the revenue.
Its Is ascertained that the bonds taken for securing
ditties, *bleb were outstanding on the 30th of Sep-
tember last, exceeded 43,000,000 dollars ; and ,the
receipts into the Treasury, from that sonic* of ;re-
venue, during the year 1819, are estimated at.
24,220.000 dollars; • athich added to the iialattce in
the Treasury ow theilst day of January, .1819, esti.
metal at 1412,401 dollars, 54 cents, makes the
aggregate amount of 26,232,408 dollars, 54 cents.
The probable authigrized olemsnds on the Treesury
during 18419 "are eitimeted to amount to 24,515,90
dollars, 75 -rests; which being
,deducted frets •ba
tiortognt estimated to be received into the Treasury,
. incleditsetbi balance on the Ist day of Jinuary,
1819, team a balance in the Treasury, on the 14
4., of Jansiery, 18W, of 2,717,188 dollars, 83
011141., ,
In presenting this Estimate of receipts for the year
1819, it is necessary to premise, that the sum to
be received from the customs is less than what, from
the amount of the outmoding bonds, would, under
the ordinary circumstances, be received. The amount
of the sales of public lands during the last year,
end the sum due at this time by the purchasers,
would justify a much higher estimate of the receipts
from that important branch of revenge, it the most
serious dithcul y in making l'itiyuneuts was not known
to exist. The excessive issues of the Banks during
the suspension of specie permeate, and the great
exportation of the precious metals to the East Indies
'during the 'present year, have produced a pressure
upon them, which has rendered it necessary to con-
'tact their discounts, for the purpose of withdraw-
ing from circulation a large proport ion of their notes.
This operation, so oppressive to their debtors? but
indispensably necessary to eke esicence of specie
payments, magi be con•inaiid, untiljeld and silver
shall fore. a just proporti:.n of tha-citceletine cur-
rency, • In passing through this sprdeal, punctuality
in the discharge of deMs, both to indiaititsils and tn.
the Government, will he comaderably itipoited, anci
welhfpuqded apprehensions are entertained,
un-
til it isoissed,paysnsint• in some of the land districts'
bategtly diminished.
The extent into which paymente into the Trea-
sury during the dear 1819 be affected by the ge-
neral pressure upon the communit*„ which has been
described, end • hich is the inevitable consequence of
the over-trading of the bans, and the exportation of
specie Co the East Indies, aggravated by the tem•
porary failure of the ordinary supply of the precious
metals from the Spanish American mities,caosiot at this
time be correctly appreciated. Should it exceed what
has been contemplated in this Report," the appropri-
'tiara must be diminished, the Revenue enlarged by
new *Positions, or temporary loans authorized to
meet che deficiency. As the expenditure of the
year 1820 will he greatly reduced Icy the irredeem-
able quantity of the public debt, after the redemp-
dos '9l.the remaining moiety of the Louisiana stuck,
which May be effeved'on the 21st day of October,
1819, by a resort to temporary tonna, or to the issue
of 'rreasury notes, to the amount of the deficiency,
should xny occur, it is believed to be preferable to
the imposition of new tales, which would not be
required after that year.. ,

h is reported that it is at length in the contempia.
tiou of Ministers (unwillingly we latly well believe),
to propose a very coasiderable reduction in the
Windsor Establishment, soon after the meeting et
Pediment. A Morning Paper says, "It is certain,
that the services of the greater part of his MAJESTY'S
present retinue will be dispensed with early in the
month of April. They base &reedy received moires

every aid which the most skilful hoshanding can ed.

of the F,stablishmesit in question is now imperiou4

oeremoniale, cannot, in the slightest degree, alleefatt

:that his MAJESTY is not effected by esternal objects;
end, to every feeling mind, the pomp by which he
,bas been hitherto surroundPd, has appesr,4l litfle elm
:than *idle ostentation. His MAJESTY, even in his
!happiest days, loved solitude and repose. How in-
consistent is it then with his former character, and
what mockery it is of the sense, the feelings, and
situation of the coaotry, to surround the anent-
Woos Monarch with all the pomp end vanities of as
idle and espousal,' goat.

Letters from Arnvterdarn state, that the house of
BEERENRROOR,Ihe establishment which has attracted
so much notice from the extent of its specelatiens in
the Government securities of France, is at length de-
clared in a state of ittsolvency. The ruin of this
commercial house, which, though not perhapi of the
first order, maintained a very high rink a' A -how
dam, is chiefly to he e.cribed to those speculation', of
the m ignit ode ,of which come idea may be formed by
stating, that M. BEERENBROOK at one period held
4,000,000 of renter, formiug a capital of 80,000,000,
of francs; and that every fall of one per cent. that
took place in the fends, constituted a difference of
more than 40,0001. sterling. Mi. BCE ROWE has
