! No tariff short of absolute prohibition can
prevent the effects OF the imitation of our cur.
rency beyond that of other countries whose
manufactures come in competition with ours.
From these causes our imports have been
abridged, and our revenue has been proved in.
adequate to meet the constantly increasing ex.
pcnses or our Government.
The act of the 23I of December, 1857, au.
thorized the issuing Of Treasury notes TO III.
amount of twenty millions of dollars. THIS
proved inadequate to meet the estimated ex.
pendiiures, and the act Of the 18th Of June,
1858, authorized government loan of twenty
millions in addition. No statesman would ap.
prove this increasing national debt to liGudate
the ordinary expenses Of government. This
would be most runous policy to pursue. 1t
would be runous to continue to borrow, and
besides incidental protection BY revenue tar.
if would to some extent give fresh impetus to
our industrial interests. No one, he says, will
object to such a result Sound policy requires
specific duties wherever practicable. Upon such
articles as iron, raw sugar and foreign wines
and spirits, specific duty is hest if not the
only means Of securing the revenue against
frauds and giving our manufactures the Incl.
dental advantages of q revenue tariff. The
present system Of the sliding scale operates
dlsadvantagcousIy to the manufacturers.
The President says that he his no objection

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE IN THE HoUsE.-[n
the House the Presidents message was referred
10 the Committee of the Whole on the state of
the Union, and ordered to be printed. The
House then adjourned.
In the Senate, Senator Bigler, of Pennsyl-
vania, moved that twenty thousand copies of
the PRESIDENTS message be printed.
Hale, of New Hampshire, objected to the
motion, because the President had, according
to his opinion, abused the constitutional pre-
