Among the people of all ages, the advancement of
refinement, and all the higher arts of civilization
has been marked by growing and profuse expendi
ture OF the public money 1t is easy to trace our
progress in these arts, for the last sixteen years. bv
the foregoing table. If the investigation had been
carried back to the primitive DAYS of the Republic
our barbarism, exhibited in the small amount of
our expenditures, would have caused the luxurious
democrats Of these times to blush fer the frugal and
Parsimonious habits of their predecessors.
1t will be seen that during the last year of Mr.
Mem oe's administration we were barely respecta-
BILE in point OF expenses, and that we fell off under
Adams But when Old Hickory came in, the day of
glory commenced, and we have been growing better
ever since And if the Tippecanoes would let Mr..
Van buren, remain for one or two more terms, there
is reason to believe that should attain pitch of
refinement, so far as the expenditure of mon v is
concerned, unequaled in the history of modern ma
tions.

The details Of the report are also highly amusing.
