The condition of the Public Finances was never more tlattermg than at the present period. Since my last annual communication, all the remains of the Public IK bt have been redeemed, or money has been placed in deposite tor this pur pose, whenever the credi'ora ihooso to reciiic it. All the other pecuniary engagements of the (io verniiuut have been honorably and promptly I ill. tilhd, and there wiil be a balance in the 'l'rrasury, at the close of the present year, of about liinctien millions of dollars. It is believed, that at'ter meet, in; all outstanding and unexH'iulvd appropiia tions, there wiil rnuaiu near cleieii uiilhoiis to be applied lo any new objects which t'or.grcts n ay dcsiguate, or lo the more rapid exciulmn of the works already in progress. In aid of these ob jetti, and to satisfy the rurn iit evponniliires of the enruitig year.lt is estiiiiated lia.it there will be received, from vsriuus stiurces, twinly millions more in lJii. Should Congress male new appropriations, in conformity with the estimates which will lie nib. milled from the proiier department., amounting to a Unit twenty-tour millions, still the aiuilablc surplus at the clo.c of the next yii.r, alter dtuuet. ing all uucXH iuled appropriation, w ill probably be not !.ss than six nuliions.
