lie stock, may remain unemployed 10 tn,
hands of the Commissioners Of tine sinking
fund, to other branches Of the public ser
vice, If allowable under the provisions o
the act making the appropriation, would
only postpone the period at which add
tional impositions would be required t.
meet the public expenditure. Such al
application would also have the effect o
ultimately retarding the redemption OF thu
public debt.
1t may be proper to add, that, although
some of the items in the estimate for the
ensuing year may be considered in their
nature temporary, yet it is probable that
the estimate for succeeding years will ex-
coed, rather than fall below it.
Under all the circumstances, 1t is re-
specially submitted, that the public inte-
rest requiresthat the revenue be augment.
ed, or that the expenditure be diminished.
Should an increase of the revenue be
deemed expedient, portion Of the deficit
may be supplied by an addition to the du-
ties now imposed upon various articles Of
foreign merchandise, and by reasonable
duty upon sales at public auction, but it is
not probable that any modification of the
existing tariff can supercede the necessity
Of resorting to internal taxation, If the ex.
penditure is not diminished. Should Con-
gress deem it expedient to modify the pre-.
sent rate OF duties, with view TO afford
that protection to oar cotton, woollen and
iron manufactures, which is necessary to
secure to them the domestic market,the ne
cessity Of resorting to system Of internal
taxation will be augmented. 1t is BELLE
we'd that the present is favorable mo-
ment for afordins efficient protection to
that increasing and important interest, if it
can be done consistently with the general
interest Of the nation. The situation OF
the countries from whence our foreign
manufactures have been principally drawn,
authorizes the expe citation, that, 10 the e.
vent of monopoly of the home market
being secured to our cotton and woollen
considerable portion of the
manufacturing skill and capital of those
countries will be promptly transferred to
the u. S., and Incorporated into the do
nestle capital of the Union. Should this
be realized, the disadvantages
from such monopoly would
quickly disappear, in the mean time, it is
that system of internal taxation
would be severely felt by the great mass
of our citizens.
Whether the revenue be augmented, or
the expenditure be diminished, loan to
some extent will be necessary. The aug
Of the one, or the diminution Of
the other, cannot be effected in sufficient
time to prevent this necessity. AS the six
per cent. stock of the u. S. is considera.
bly, above par, the sum required to be raj
sed by loan can be conveniently and ad
vantageously obtained by the sale Of stock
of that description; or it may be obtained
by the issue of treasury notes. 1.-THE re-
venue and expenditure shall be equalized,
the issue Of treasury notes, not bearing in
terest, is recommended in preference to the
creation or sale of stock, as the loan, in
that event, will be small in amount, and
temporary 10 its nature.
All which is respectfully submitted.
VIM. I'll. CRAWFORD.
