1t ought to be observed at the same time
that true public economy does not consist in
withholding the means necessary to accom-
plish important national objects Entrusted to
us by the constitution, and especially such as
may be necessary for the common defence.
In the present crisis Of the country it is our
duty to con6ne our appropriations to objects
of this character, unless in cases where JUS
tice to individuals may demand different
course. In all cases care ought to be taken
that the money granted by Congress shall
be faithfully and economically applied.
TINE REQUIRED ron EXAMINATION OF BILLS.
Under the Federal Constitution, ssevery
bill which shall hare passed the House Of
Representatives and the Senate shall before
it becomes law, be approved and signed
by the President J" and, If not approved,
che shall return it with his objections to
that house in which it originated.S In order
to perform this high and responsible duty,
sufficient time must be allowed the President
to read and examine every bill presented to
him for approval. Unless this be afforded
the Constitution becomes dead letter in
this particular; and even worse, it becomes
. means Of deception. Our constituents,
seeing the Presidents approval andsignature
attached to each act Of Congress, are induced
70 believe that he has actually performed his
duty, when, in truth, nothing is, in many
cases, moro unfounded.
From the practice of Congress, such an
examination Of each bill as the constitution
requires, has been rendered impossible. The
most important business Of each session 10
generally crowded into its last hours, and
tho alternative presented to the President is
either to violate the constitutional duty
which he gives to the people, and approve
bills which, for want OF time, il is impossi-
BILE he should have examined, or, By his re-
fusal to do this, subject the country and in
diyiduals to great loss and inconv enicnce.
Besides, q practice has grown up Of late
years TO legislate il appropriation bills, ..
the last hours Of the session, on nav and
important snbjects. This practice constrains
the President either to suffer measures TO
become laws which be does mot approve, OF
to incur the risk Of stopping tho wheels OF the

such steamers from individuals to supply its
pressing wants. At the present time we
have no armed vessel in tho navy which can
penetrate the rivers Of China. We have
but few which can enter any of the harbors
south of Norfolk, although many millions
Of foreign and domestic commerce annually
pass in and out of these harbors. Some Of
our most valuable interests and most yul-
nerable points are thus left exposed. This
class of vessels of light draught, great speed
and heavy guns would be formidable in
coast defence. The cost of their construc-
ton will not be great, and they will require
but a comparatively small expenditure to
keep them in commission. In time of peace
they will prove rs effective as much larger
vessels, and often moro useful. One Of
them should be at every station where We
maintain a squadron, and three or four
should be constantly employed on our At
lantlc and Pacific coasts. Economy, utility
and efficiency combine to recommend them
as almost indispensable. Ten Of these
small vessels would be of incalculable adj
vantage to the naval service, and the whole
cost OF their construction would not exceed
two million three hundred thousand dollars.

The Report Of the Secretary of the Inte-
rior 10 worthy of grave consideration. It
treats Of the numerous, important and d.
versiied branches of administration in

most prominent are the public lands and
our relations with the Indians. 90.

Our system for the disposal Of public

pointed the way, and gradually adapted d
the growth and settlement of our Western

pERILous BALLOON AscENsIoN.

On Thursday morning man, whose cannot
Immediately ascertain, ascended from Erie in balloon
with the intention Of crossing to Canada He had
made about sixty miles Of his aerial journey, and had
reached within six miles of Grand river the Canada
side, when the wind veered round and blew him down
the lake and towards the American shore When about
twenty miles distant from Long Point he saw the prope
Ter Marie Stuart and let the gas in order that he
might board the propeller The unlusky aeronaut was
immersed up to his middle in the water from which
position he rescued by the boat of the Marie Stuart
The balloon made fast to the boat that it might be
owed the propeller and preserved but the machine"
began to fill again. and the wind freshening the posi-
ton of the boat and the balloon was changed and the
sailors found themselves flying through the water al the
tail of this cruiser The ropes quickly
cut and the balloon soon ecudded out Of sight The
propeller took the into Detroit from which point
he sent letter by the City of Cleveland to be mailed
