will make the available means of the government amount to 00 The expenditures for the ear including the redemption of of Treasury are at 00 From this it is evident that there will be no means in the Treasury to pay the fourth in- stalment due the States under the de- act of June 25 1836 and the Treasurer hints that Congress should further modify the laws now in force in relation to that subject The last law of Congress postponed tlie payment of the fourth instalment to January next and the Secretary thinks that the re- will scarcely be sufficient to meet even current demands of the ment without making that Unless Congress takes some action on the matter the Secretary however will feel to make that payment when it due Part sixth treats of the exports imports of the current year The ex- ports during the year ending en the of September arc computed at Of about of domestic and 000 of foreign origin The former have from the previous year 414 and the latter The imports for the same year were These are less in value than those of the previous year nearly less than these of 1836 It is Stated us an interesting fact that during the last three years more than annually or an average of of cur whole domestic exports have been de- rived from More than tended with much inconvenience In part ninth we have the Secretary's on the manner of keeping the public money and the changes proposed which go to propose most unequivocally and fully the system of an Independent or Sub treasury The secretary sets out with asserting that the present lawi in regard to the safe keeping of the lic money are while the advantages of the state bank system and the system are both but partially enjoyed the department has to put up with the inconveniences and risk of each But four banks now re- main as general banks are used as special depositories and various sums are therein so ed The requirements of collateral curity is applauded and to this ment is attributed the confident tion that all the debts due from banks which accrued between 1834 and will in the end be paid Defalcations of Collectors are brought in and some gettions are made having in view the greater safety of the public funds under the control of the collectors The ease TIIK It It wan stilted in tlic Sun since that by ilie swiftest Opt Alexander in Ins of in the gives ir arc tit of in which voi fill s ft uf five tin

ut is specially alluded to and the secretary promises to make this the subject of a special report to the President to be hid before The Secretary continues that standing every and security heretofore in force the whole of these defaults whether by collectors ers or banks have occurred under the old system of making in a states Bank or State banks for safe custody It is supposed that the posed plan of an Independent Treasury with all its checks and guards will di- minish the number of risks tend in several respects to strengthen the public security Various arguments are entered into to enforce the views of the Secretary on this point But few tional officers would be required and nn the whole it is apparent that the system of an Independent Treasury is more plain and simple in its ments than any other and much more accordant with that originally in use ter the adoption of the Constitution Part tenth is devoted to several which the amended is filed Kulr 27 That in all cases of Appeals to

within the past few years the power to issue treasury notes for a and the postponement of the lime of paying the fourth were measures for giving ad securities against then in t and the Secretary as that without further legislation and that at an early day tion of the public faith must be gered tn view of this he that a permanent power be given to notes at all times when means may be required to
