v;,e TO Congress information ofths state o

ssnecaasary and expedient."
Rut 6rei, and above all, our thanks are du'
20 Almighty God for the numerous bcneit'
which He has bestowed upon this people
and our united prayers ought to ascend &C
Him that He would continue to bless oul
great republic in time to come as ne na'
blessed It in times past. Since the aalourn.
ment of the last Congress our constituent'
have enjoyed an unusual degree OF eea!,n'
The earth has yielded her fruit aoundan.iyy.
and has bountifully rewarded the soll OF tne
husbandmen. Our great staple: nave com.
manded high prices, and, up TILL wi1nln
brief period, our manufacturing, mineral,
and mechanical occupations have largely
partaken Of the general prosperity.

try, in its monetary Interests, j. q the present
moment In deplorabls condition.. ID the
midst of unsurpassed plenty in all the pro-
ductions Of agriculture and in all the element,
ofnational wealth, We find our manufactures
suspended, our public works retarded, our
private enterprises of different kinds aban-
doned. and thousands Of useful labOrers
thrown out Of employment and reduced to
want. The revenue of the government, which
10 chiefly derived from duties on imports
from abroad, has been greatly reduced, whilst
the appropriations made by Congress at its
last session for the current fiscal year are
very large in amount.
Under these circumstances loan may be

1t is our duty to inquire what has produc-
ed such unfortunate results, and whether
their recurrence can be prevented? In oil
former revulsions the blame might have been
fairly attributed to variety OF cooperating
causes; but not SO upon the present occasion.
II is apparent that our existing misfortunes
have proceeded solely from our extravagant
and vicious system Of paper currency and
bank credits, exciting the people to wild
speculations and gambling in stocks. These
revulsions must continue to recur Mt sue
ccssiye intervals so long as the amount Of
the paper currency and bank loans and dis
counts of the country shall be left to the
discretion Of fourteen hundred irresponsible
banking institutions, which, from the very
law of their nature, will consult the interest
welfare.
