The following extraordinary resources
and demands not being of a permanent ma
ture, are not included in that calculation,
to wit:
The specie in the trea-
sury, which, on the
goth day of Septem-
Der last, amounted
to $4,000 dollars.
The arrears of the dl-
rect tax, estimated
at 100000
The outstanding inter-
nal duties, amount
ing to near 100000
And the SUM which
will be repaid to the
United States, on
account of advances
heretofore made in
England for the pro-
secution of claims
estimated at 10000
Constituting an aggre-
gate of 100000
More than six millions, six hundred
thousand dollars, which, after reserying the
sum which it is necessary to keep in the
treasury, will be sufficient TO discharge the
demands due on account of the convention
with Great Britain, and amounting to
2,664,COO dollars
Sundry extraordinary
expences in relation
to the conventions
with France & Great
Britain, estimated
at 100000

makes an actual difference in favour of the
United States of more than four hundred
thousand dollars during thaty year.
The payments on account of the princi-
pal of the public debt, from the first day of
April, 1901, to the 3oth day of September,
1903, have amounted, as appears by the es-
innate Ito dolls. 9, 924,oo4
The specie in the treasury, ON the 1st day
Of April, 1901, amounted to
1,7S4,OOo
And on the seth day
Of September, 1908
to $4,000
Making an increase Of 1866 900
Those two items constitute an
aggregate Of dolls. 13,99O,oo4
From which deducting the ex-
traordinarv resourse arising
from the sales of the bank
shares, which produced 1,2s7,6oo
Leaves for the amount OF the
true difference 1s,7o2, 4o4
in favour of the United States, for that
period of two years and an half, a sum of
twelve millions seven hundred thousand
dollars.
From that view of the present situation Of the
financial concerns of the United States, it seems
that the only question which requires considera-
tonis. whether any additional revenues are want.
ed in order to provide for the new debt, which !
if Congress shall pass the laws necessary TO carry
the treaty with France into effect, will result
from tue purchase Of Louisiana. !.

to pay, by vistIe Of shaz treaty, amounts 10 hs

on account of the purchase of Louisiana !;
being the same sum which was reserved
for the purposes contemplated by the law
of the last session, appropriating that a
mount for the extraordinary expences
attending the intercourse with foreign ma
tons.
1t appears by the estimate [D] that dur
