It was reserved for the American Union to test the ad vantages of a Government en tirely dependant on the continual exercise of ihe popular will ; and our experience Ins shown that it is as beneficent in pr. ctice as it is just in theory. Each succossiveeh.uigu made in our local institutions has. contribu ted to extend the rii;ht of suffrage, has in creased the direct influer.ee of ti e mass of the community, given g?eter freedom to individual exc rtioe, ui : restricted, more and more, the lowers of Government : et the intelligence, prudence, and patriotism ofthe people have kept pace with this aug mented responsibility. In no country has rdnc.nl ion been so widelv diffused. Do mestic peace has nowhere So largely reign ed. The clon; bombs of social intercourse have in no instance prevailed wkh such harmoiu over a space so vast. All forms of religion have united, for the first time, to diffuse charity and piety, because, for the first time in the" history of nations, all have been totally untrammelled, and absolutely free The deepest recesses of the wilder ness have been penetrated; yet, instead of the rudeness. in the sochl condition conse quent upon sue!, adventures elsewhere, nu e crou3communieesnavespiungup,:tlready unnvallel in prosperity, gen rai intelli gence, iuicrnal tranquility, and the wisdom of their political institutions. Internal mi provement, the fruit of individual enter prise, fostered hy the protection of the Slates, has added new links to the confe deration, and fresh rewards to provident iedu stry. Doubtful questions of domestic policy have been quietly settled by mutual forbearance; and agriculture, commerce, and manufactures, minister to each other. Taxation and public debt, the burdens which bear so heavily upon all other coun tries have pressed with comparative light ness'upmi us. Without one entangling al liance, our friendship is prized by every nation; and the rights of our citizens are every where respected, because they are known to be guarded by a united, sensi tive," and watchful people. ... To this practical operation of our insfi ..t?rtn so evident and successful, we owe he. for" slut, d N " li ly eic;h? millions of dollars of Trea sury e d.'S aie to he paid during the coming year in ad. 'ii ion to ihe ordinary appropria tions for th- support of Govei nmrnt. For both these purposes, tlr resources of the Treasury will undoubtedly be sufficient, if the charges upon it ate not in m ased be yond ihe annual estimate. Xo excess, however, is likely lo exist; nor can the we may a!so hope that the business of indi viduals will hereafter ho relieved from the injurious effects of a continued agitation of the conduct of those, who are et trosced with the public money", and 1 shall at oil times bo disposed to encou.iage a watchful discharge of this duly If a more direct co-operation on ih" part of Congress, in the supervision of the conduct of the officers that disturbing subject.

Aluch can be effected by postponing approprial ions not immediately reqoired for the ordinary public service, or for nnv pressing emergency; and much by reducing ihe expenditures where the entire and immediate accomplishment of the objects in view is not indispenSa When we call to mind tbe recent and ex cessive issues of bank paper, aggravated by tbe unforeseen withdrawal of much foreign capital, and the inevitable derangement ari sing from ihe distribution ofthe surplus re venue among the States as required by Congress; and consider the heavy expenses incurred' by the removal of Indian tribes; by the military operations in Florida; and nn account, of ihe unusual large appropria tions made at the last two annual sessions of Cengress for other objects; we have stri king cv ilence, in the present efficient state of our finances, of tho abundant resources ofthe country to fulfil all its obligations. Nor is it less gratifying to find that the general business of the community, deep ly affected as it has been, is reviving with additional vigour, hastened by the lessons of the past, and animated by the hopes of the future. By the curtailment of pa per issues; by curbing the sanguine and ad venturous spirit of speculation;' and by the honcrahle application of all available means to the fulfilment of obligations, confidence has been restored both at home and abroad, 0,,t mC'r ,er Exhibit.;,... -rami ease and facilUy secured lo all the JSr and will prove .heiri operatic of trade. their Government, and still less upoo indi-! nn ndJoiniiiff State, favorabh koo.vu for vidtnls not responsible to them for its tJn- j the care it hai always bestowed upon what avoidable abuses. ever relates to its financial concerns.

With the' exception of limited sums de posited in ihe few banks still employed under the act of lS3G,thc amounts receiv ed for duties, and,- with very inconsidera ble exceptions, those accruing from lands also, have, since the general suspension of specie payments by the deposite banks, been kept and disbursed by the Treasurer, under his general legal powers, subject to the superintendence of the Secretary of the Treasury. The ptopriety of defining more specifically, and of regulating by law, the exercise of this wide scope of Executive discretion, has been already submitted to Congress. A change in the office of collector at one of orrr principal ports, has brought to light a defalcation of the gravest character, the particulars of which will be laid before you in a special report from ttie Secretary ofthe Treasury, By this report, and the those ofiiccrs who havebrg0 s'mis miheir possession, and left discreiio'r-iy in respect toothers. They might report to the Ex ecutive such defalcations as were found to exist, with a view to a prompt removal from office, unless the default was satisfac torily accounted for; and report, also, to Congress, at the commencement of each session, the result of their examinations and proceeding-. It does appear to me that, with a subjection of this class of public officers to the genera! supervision of tho Executive to examinations by a commit tee of Congress at penodsof which they should have no previous notice, and to pro secution and puniihineut as for felony for every breach of trust, the safe keeping of the public money s, under the system pro posed, might be placed on a surer founda tion than it has ever occupied since the es tablishment of the Government. The Secretary of the Treasury will lay before you additional information contain ing new details on this interesting subject To these I ask your early attention. 1 hat it should have given nss to great diva ty
