that General Armstrong is certainly com
ing home This story is really too stale
to go down-besides. General .Arms-
trong would never think of desertisg his
post, at this crisis, unless ne had been or
dered of by Bonaparte, or recdHed by our
government But is there a shadow of reason
to believe, that either of these things has
taken placer Bonaparte had not been in
Paris, & his hands have been too full of the
war. to study the merits Of our case, and
adopt such rash resolution. a, to our
own government, it has not yet had time, c

place to require it. to send over instructions
for the recall of our minister.

DEBATE ON lnH NEW DUTY BILL.
Mr.. LLOYD's SPEECH.

| CoNGLUnED.

The gentleman from Maryland proceeds
to shew the dlminution Of the public debc,
BY an average Of five millions of dollars 9
year, and then states, that besides having
paid of thirty three millions of dollars OF
the public debt, We have relieved ourselves
thereby, from the payment Of en- annual IN
terest Of two millions Of dollars" And
says, +" these two items together making Sc
ven millions Of dollars win operate N effect
for any purposes now required, as so much
received. But wehave orher resources, the
laws of the last session authorize the articles
of sugar, coffee, teas, pepper and certain
wines to be deposited ii the public stores,
until wanted for expectation. Those artl-
cles Will now be required for consumption,
and presuming that as much thereof will be
consumed as in former years, we may fairly
count on the following duties being collected
Ito Wit: On sugar, &c. including public
lands, S 4.668,OOO. Nor is this ali 1t Is
a well known fact, which will not be contra
dicted by the gentleman from Massachu-
sets, that the importations from India and
China, have in the present year, been equal
to that of any preceding year nor has the
importationof dry goods from England, dur
ing the present year, been SO much less than
former wears, as materially to affect the re-
venue. On the whole, Mr.. President, be-
lieve that the. receipts for theyear 1909, may
with safety be calculated On, as at least 70
millions Of dollars, from which nothing be-
ing payable towards the principal OF the
public debt, we may count the actual supply
to the treasury as equal to any preceding
year.
+" Let us take view Of the customary ex-
penditures OF the government fort year
1909: civil list, &c. including one million
for new regiments S 8,675,0OO. 1.-THE gen
tleman from Delaware willnot admit any OF
my calculations, he will certainly admit, that
if we have fourteen millions now IN the trea-
sury, at the next meeting OF Congress, Gin
the winter session. and IN case OF war, il the
peop.e do consume rs much as usual, ways
and means will be found to Introduce the
articles on which the duties have heretofore
been collected"
Now, sir, it is clear, from the showing
even of this honorable gentleman, whose
calculations are received with SO much re-
spect here, that whether there be peace,war
or embargo, Jour resources are yet abundant,
to carry us on, at least, until next winter /;
and as we arc to uaeet again in three months
