Treasury Reports 1807 1809 Revenue and Debt Plans
The report outlines 1807 and 1808 duties and net revenues after collection costs and debentures. It projects 1809 gross imports near ten million dollars with about six and a half million net after debentures. It details land sales at 143000 acres and Georgia debt arrangements, plus public land receipts and debt principal repayments around 6.73 million dollars. It warns a possible four million dollar loan for 1810 due to war risks and proposes higher duties to sustain public credit, with peace-establishment spending forecasts for 1811 and beyond. It also critiques non-import interdiction measures as ineffective under current conditions.
