censure, or imputed improper motives-they
have spoken of facts and facts only, as they
found them, and traced them to their natural
consequences, without regard to any individual
or any party. If there be any who feel, the
fault is not ours. The Committee has not acted
upon party ground; they investigated the sub
ject referred TO them with impartiality, as citi-
zens attached to the country, and having an
interest in the preservation of its Institutions
They deeply felt that the crisis is Of most a
farming character-that the character Of our
government is undergoing a great change
which in its consequences threaten disaster 10
the country, and that the only effectual mode Of
arresting the approach Of revolution Is by the
application of timely and peaceful remedies
such as those which they have proposed.
1t seems that the estimates are not to receive
credit because ii had been last year anticip6 ed
in the argument on the deposite question, that
there would be deficit, when there was sur
plus. Mr.. c. said that he had asked the Sena-
tor whether he intended the remark to be ap-
piled to him, and be must say that he had not
received the answer which, according to the
usual courtesy which prevails in the body, he
had right to expect. ] throw back, said Mr..
c., the assertion Of the Senator-I made no false
prediction anticipated no deficit. 1t is well
known to those with whom associated, that at
the time, | looked into the subject, and then
stated that the estimate that there would be
deficit was erroneous, and so stated at the time.
| then estimated the receipts from the customs
at sixteen millions, and only desire that my
estimate as to the surplus revenue may be as
correct as my estimate of the revenue Of last
year then was. have little apprehension as TO
the customs. If there be error it is as to the
public lands. | have taken sum less than the
average Of the last four years; much less in fact
than it appears; for instead of taking the income
of 1888 at three millions nine hundred thous.
and, might well have taken it at five millions,
the amount at which the land sold although the
return Of the year is put down at SO, 100000,
without giving any where, as far as can see,
satisfactory explanation. But am well aware
that the great sales of this and the last year are
to be attributed to the large tracts of fertile land
brought into the market and which may posi-
bly, have greater effect on the revenue from
this source than was estimated by the committee
