The receipt* from the customs for tin year 1842 de
[lending lor their amount upon the action of Congress at
its present session, in the adjustment ot the tarill, it is
not practicable to Ihriu estimates of the revenue which
may Is- <h vised from that source with much precision,
i Those now submitted have in view the present rates of
duly, and their Anal redurtiou to 20 |s r cent, ad valorem
| a fit r the lltJth June in xt. The scale of duties thus es
tablished, has been necessarily assumed as the basis of
calculation lor the remainder of the year 1842, estimated
with reference to the anlicipntcd imputations of (hat year,
com pH rial with the average importations of former years.
In the estimattsl receipts, the amount which will
come into tin Treasury from the sales of the public lands
in 1812 has been excluded, as tin.- act of Congress of the
4th of September last directs Its distribution among the
several Ntaii-s and Territories.
With regard to receipts from the loan already author
in d by law, it in to be remarked that, owing to llir short
jirriod which isto elapse before it liecomte redeemable, to
gether with the uns) tiled state of the money market, it
would not he safe to expect that any considerable portion
w ill Is- obtained, for the service of the y ear 1842, before
the expiration of the time limited lor cllccling it.
The la w authorizing the issue ol Treasury notes also
expiring early in 1812, not more than ,$50,(XXI, it is sup
posed, can he made available from that sourer.
In estimating the expenditures of the year 1842, it is
I assumed that no other appropriations will be made than
those now submitted in the estitnatrs from the several
Departments; and that the balance of those appropria
tion.- unexpended at the end of the year 1842, will
equal to that at the close of the present yc?r,
|t is proper further to remark that estimates of expen
diturescan only be made for such as may be required un
der existing laws, and arises in the ordinary operations of
the Government. The power of appropriation, as well
as the power of raising revenue, br ing at all limes in
the hands of Congress, this Department cannot found re
limales upon its own sense of what the public interest
may be thought to requite, especially at a time when the
condition of the country may be supposed to cell for more
than ordinary means of defence and security.
The amount required trf surveys of the pdblle lands,
and the ronijienssttnn of the officers employed in that
brunch of the public service, being payable out of the pm
Ic's-d* of tlie sales of thoue Linda, ipnut included in lliia j
' expenditure.

will exist on any imported article exceeding twenty per J

the same art, of great, imp.rt.in^.*, arc to come into utk- ]

! One of them is the oniftment which, after that pr rdf), j
j requires all duties to ho paid m ready money ; thus put
I ting an end to a system of credits which has prevailed ^

felt to foster and encourage foreign trade by Mil practical^*
means, may at the prew-nt day vvull yield to theimportaut !
objisus to he secured by cash pnyrnt nt*’.
Another, deemed at the same time an isifnl.il pro\ i
mioii ofthomM, is that which dccJnr* that, after June,
1M\?, all duties on imported ortieh . shall i*e assessed tij>- J
on the value of such articles at tli« j«rt where the samu
shall ho eiutrod, under sueli regulations as shall be pro

Indeed, lhi re can U little ro in f. i h« uhl that t was in

lofore been it garded ns the dictate el high prudence and
the lim bing of long experience, that, for tin prevention
ol frauds and the security ot the revenue, duties ought,
uj* far as practicable, to he made not ud valorem, but
I specific.
Ul tiie rsMcniuu <-r prrempi »ry pn.\istuns oi tiie net,
there are two, which, it in not to be disguised, wi re in
tended to stand tow urdN • aeh other in the relation of©
quivalcntii or mutual considerations. These are the re
duction ot all duties to twenty |ht h i.i ;ul valorem, and
the asNi sNinent of those ilutti s ujmn a home valuation.—
It in impossible to read the act ilm It, ami still more im
|MisNih|e to advert to tiie history of the tiuu s. without ar
riving at Uie most perfect convict ion that the home valu
ation waOfeflnfiod to for the purpuric of'guard I tig the rev
enue ngaihflt fraud and protecting American nianuliicttires
agninnt under valuations. There could be no other pos
sible object ill thin provision. It isa part of the act, there
fore, connected with another part, and mst rled for tho
purpose of qualifying essentially the «j» raiien of that o
ther part.
Hut it is highly proper to look at the circumsrnn. es
which led to the nMtBgeofthc net • t |Nkl, and v> regard
the motives in which it appears t*» have had iis origin
ll was the re sult of a spirit of compromise and com .ba
llon, at a time when consult vatle agitation existed and
diversity of opinion prevailed. If e vents shall appear to
make it m ms ary to re««onsider ot readjust the provisions
til that luw,uH pri*ci ( dings towards that end should j o
conducted under the inflm nee of the miuim spirit. The
j undersigned is most deeply impressed with tiie force of
; these convict ions, while offering suggest ions to ('engross
! on the subject. H<* is constrained to admit that it has
appeared to him that the interests oi’ihe ccuntiv required
some modification ofihe act of I.S»8. In support of this
opinion lie would first menti* n the :Tcat, it net insur
mountable difficulties of establishing a home valuation at
our various polls, without iueurring tire risk of produ
cing such diversity in the estimates of value as should not
only lead to groat practical inconvenience, but intcri ro
in effect, with the constitutional provision that duties on
imports shall be equal in all the States. If such should
he tiie opinion of Congress, then it is clear that some e
quivalent is to be provided fi r the home valuation,or else
tin w hole bas s upon which the act was expected to rest,
as a measure of compromise mid adjustment, is taken a
way or displaced. There erases, in that event, to he the
mutuality or compromise of interests evidently intended
to he produced by placing home \ liiation as an equiva
lent against a reduction of ad valorem duties. It re
mains for the wisdom of Congress to determine whether
such equivalent can he found.
Hut, in the second place, if (•on^^ss should le of o
pinion either that home valuation ik practicable, or that
1 some equivalent and pit per substitute nutv he found tbr it.
| the undersigned w ill not disguise hi© opinion that it can
j not be regarded as Win \ by any portion of the country,
as a permanent system of policy, to Augment tiie amount
of revenue, when further exigencies may require such
augmentation, by raising duties « nail articles, including
those of absolute necessity, t j the full extent of twenty
per rent, and preserving that limit, at the same time, as
a fixed barrier againM Maher duties on any articlr what
ever, even those of mere luxury. Such a plan of rev -
enue, if to he regarded as a settled system, appears to
the undersigned to be unnatural and inconvenient, and
such as is not likely to promote U c kcst inter ats of the
country.
The probable effect of the future opera tint of t’.i© act of
1833 upon the ©apnfacturrs and mechanical ti?dcsof the
country, particularly if no home valuat on be established,
and no equivalent fur such home valuation f und, gives
rise to inquiry too important to be overlooked.
It is fully acknowledged thatall duties should twin'd
with primary rcjprtnrt to revenue; ©t it tsadimiied.w th
