The estimate Of the proceeds of the
sales Of public lands is founded upnn the
expectation that all the Miami lands in In
diana, or those in the Choctaw session of
1880, in Mississippi, will be brought into
the market.
If both tracts should be offered for SALE
the amount from that source may be in
creased four hundred thousand dollars. If
neither should be offered, the estimated
amount will be reduced two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars.
The preceding estimates are made On the
assumption of the continuance Of the ex-
isting laws for the collection of duties on
imports and tonnage, and for the sale of
the public lands. and of course will be af-
fected by any changes in those laws. The
fluctuations of commerce forbid an impli-
cit reliance upon any prospective calcula.
tons for long term. Those now present
ed have been made from the best informa-
ton that could be obtained, and from
comparison with the receipts of previous
years. The large amount of eighteen mill
ions received in 1912 from customs is not
I, he wholly credited To the business of
that year. 1, includes S4,sOs, 666 IL. the
amount of duties which had accrued in
lS4l, ard was secured by bonds that were
paid in 1912. and also 1857 900 of Treas.
ury notes redeemed by The collectors in the
former year, but which were credited in
1912, thus leaving the actual receipts from
the duties Of the year al less Than thirteen
millions. IL will he perceived that there
was decided Improvement in The duties on
imports during The year 1913; for, during
the three first quarters of that year, the re-
ceipis exceeded thirteen millions, and, from
returns already received, it is quite certain
those of the fourth quarter will amount to
more than three millions, making a total Of
more than sixteen millions for the calendar
year.
Various general considerations, and par
ticuarly that the stocks of imported goods
were, during the last two years. nearly ex-
hausted, induce the belief that the revenue
from this source will continue TO augment
under the present laws for the next two
years, but il is doubted whether this in
crease will exceed three or four millions.
1t is believed that habits of economy are
prevailing among our fellnw.citizens, siimu-
lated and strengthened by the sad conse-
quences of overlrading and a spirit of
speculation. The disposition TO husband
their means prevents the purchase of many
superhuous articles of foreign manufac.
iure which were formerly in extensive use.
Many fabrics which were heretofore i'm
ported, and nearly all ihnse composed of
silk, are manufactured within our own Dor.
ders as well, and are furnished as cheap, as
the productions of other countries. This
cause has for several years gradually re.
duced the consumption of foreign merchan-
disc. and will continue to operate; and, in
connection with more heathful economy,
will materially affect the revenue. The es.
Inmates Of receipts from customs for the
ensuing eighteen months have been framed
in reference 10 these considerations
Boon's Lick times. [volume] (Fayette, Mo.) 1840-1848, 1844-01-06

with usage, this explanation is necessary
to prevent mistake. Notwithstanding this
deduction. it will be perceived that there
will be o deficiency Of more than two
millions five hundred thousand dollars.
TO this deficiency must be added the
amount Of such special appropriations as
Congress may make during the present
session. in addition 20 the appropriations
for which estimates are submitted in
another report. 1t is a duty also TO re.
mark, that the credit of the Treasury, the
facility Of its operations. and the necessity
Of guarding against unforeseen contingent
cies, have usually induced Congress TO make
provision for small surplus. There is
nothing in the circumstances Of the present
year TO induce a departure from such a
pr"vident course. and for that purpose a
million and half of dollars ought to be
added to the deficiency above stated. The
whole amount to be provided for the SER
vices of the present fiscal year. beyond the
means now existing or estimated, would
therefore be about S4OO0,OOO.

Deficiency, s2.527.264 II
1t will be seen that sum exceeding two
millions and a half is deducted from the
appropriations already made, on the ground
that it will not be required to be paid out
during the fiscal year. Being actually ap-
propriated by Congress, and liable TO be
used even during the year, and certainly
within a short time after its expiration, the
undersigned has hesitated to deduct the
amount from the expenditures, and, al
though this has been done in conformity

the LIST of January, 1897, to the amount Of
ss,576.697 SO, and by Treasury notes. Du-
ring the last two years and nine months
the deficiency was partly supplied by the
balance in the Treasury on the LIST Janua-
ry, lS4l, $l,l96627 IS; by receipts from
funds existing before the last mentioned
day, to the amount of S72O,723 80; and
the residue by loans and Treasury notes.
II will be perceived also that the expendi-
lures for the four years, for all purposes
other than the public debt, averaged at the
rate of twenty.eight millions one hundred
and twenty-five thousand dollars per year;
while those of the same character for the
last two years and nine months averaged at
the rate of twenty.four millions four hun
dred and fOrty-eight thousand dollars per
annum. The reduction in expenditures for
The last mentioned period was much greater
than the diminuiun of revenue.
The payments on account of the princi-
pal and interest of the old public debt, and
the interest on loans and Treasury notes
during the last mentioned period, exceeded
two millions, while those between 1897 and
1910 were less than seven hundred thou.
sand dollars.
From The preceding estimates
and statements it appears
that there will be required
for the service of the pre-
sent fiscal year beyond the
means in the Treasury, 100000 90
And for the service of the fiS-
cal year commencing lst
July, 1914, eyond the pro-
bable revenue, al least 100000 90

Instead of any available balance in the
Treasury on the LIST of January, ls42. there
was, therefore, a deficiency to meet the
outstanding warrants of 1904 1913 Al.
From the accompanying statement GAY it
appears that the receipts into the Treasury
during The year 1912, exclusive Of trust
funds, and Of the avails of Treasury notes
and loans, were Sl9,643,966 40
The expenditures of the
same year, exclusive ofthe
sums paid on the redemp-
ton of treasury notes and
interest on them, and on
recent loans. and on &C.
count Of the old public
debt, was 23,92l, O37 60

est on them and on loans

The amount paid for redemp-

To supply the deficiency and
to provide means for the
redemption of Treasury
notes, others were issued
and loans obtained to the
amount of 5,545,7Os SO
And loan was made under
the act of March 8, Is43,
of seven millions, Of
which nearly The whole
was received during the
quarter $685., 900 90
Which left balance on the
LIST Of July, ls43, of lO,434,5O7 SIS
This large apparent balance arises from
the circumstance that while nearly the
whole proceeds of the seven millions loan
were paid in during the half year, the
amount Of notes redeemed by those pro.
ceeds does not appear in the accounts Of
that period, but is contained in those of the
next quarter. The real balance excluding
the loan and the notes subsequently, re.
deemed, was about $3.370,00O.
