Although thisesti mate will be realized in its general result, J deficiencies have been ascertained in the customs, the interna! - duties 'and direct tax, the bank dividends and "the postage of letters. The deficiency which has oc curred in the customs, internal duties and direct taxes, probably augmen.tih nearly the same degreey the receipts from those sources'in the year 1820, by "the payment of the reyenue bonds, & of that portion of the internal duties and direct 1 taxes which if the accustomed punctu ality had been observed, Would have been received during present year. ; But; it is probable that the receipts . of that year will be diminished .by the ' non-payment of the bank dividends, and by, the appli cation of a portion of the proceeds of tfie public lands to the redemption of the outstanding Mississippi - stock. The re- ceipts for the year 1820, applicable to the ordinary and current demands upon tlie Treasuryvtn'ay therefore be estimated at 22,000,000 dollars j viz H Customs .

This deficit of nearly 5,000,000 dollars, re sulting from the excess of expenditure be yond the xeceipts, cannot be supplied by any application. 'of the ordinary revenue. After paying the interest and reimburse ment of the public debt, and redeeming the 'remainder 'oHhe Louisiana stock, a bout 2,500,000 dollars of the sinking fund will remain without application, if the price oif the public Stocks should, contin ue above the prices at which the Con. missioners of the sinking fund are author ized to purchase.' During the years, lfj21 1822,'& 1823, the average sum of 5000 000 dollars of the sinking fund will aslb remain without application, if the price of the public stock should prevent its pur chase. Any application of that portion; of the sinking fund which, on ac.ccjont of the price of the public stock, may remain unemployed in the hands of the Com missioners of the sinking funrl, . to other branches of the public service, if allowa ble under the provisions of th.er act mak ing the appropriation; wo uld onlv post pone the period-at whidi additional im positions would be rerji iirr.d to meet the public expenditure.

Of the Estimate of the Public Revenue and Expendi- ' ; tures for the year 1820. ' ; Iri presenting the estimate for the year 1820, it may be pro- "per to observe, that, when the internal duties were repealed, on the 6 1st of December, 181, the permanent revenue, in cluding those duties was estimated at $24,525,000, whilst the annual authorized expenditure was ascertained to be less than $22,000,000. The repeal of the internal duties reduced the former to 22,025,000 dollars, whilst the payments from the Treasury, during the year 181 8, exceeded 26,000,000 dollars, and those of the present year will, probably, fall but little short fuctures, a considerable port of 25,500,000 dollars.

Should an increase of the revenue Sbes', deemed expedient, a portion of the defi cit may be supplied by an addition to the duties now imposed upon various articles of foreign merchandize, and by a rea sonable duty upon sales at public auction j -but it is not probable that any modifica tion &f the. existing tariff can. supercede the necessity of resorling to iritenial taxa tion, if the expenditure is not diminished, hould Congress deem it expedient 1 to modify the present rate of duties, with a. view to afford that protection to our cot ton, woollen anc iron maunfactures, which is necessary to secure to them the domes tic market, the necessity of resorting to a system of internal taxation will be aug mented.;. ,lt is believed that the . present . is a favorable moment for affording effi cient protection to7 that increasing and important interest, if it can be dohe ctti sistentlj withjthe general Interest of the nation. . ; ;situai5on " ofttie; cbunlriear from whence our foreign -manufactures have bee principally drawn authorizes the expectatfbn that, in thel event" of ra a ' monopoly of the home niarkety being se- . cured to cpr cotton and "woollen manu-, r Don cl the 1 of those - fl 1 i! -li f V 4ht- m m m til! ! -5t 'I St..
