I have sus tained very little, injury by it, and this is tile fifst year, so far as my information extendi, of its appearance in this state. Heither was I much troubled by the worm, which I believe" has now also for the first time infested our cotton, by eating into the pfxi wben about half grown, which utterly mined it.

It must be admitted, however. that the .treaty is more desirable as a 1 means of preventing lyar, than in any other point of view. We obtain Florida, jbutgive up the claim we have urged to Texas, a! very extensive and valuable re? fgion of country, ilyinar to the west of the state of Louisiana. Same Kavcentertain- ed the opinion, that had the negotiation lf been jadiciously managed,' we could have .secured to ourselves much better terms. i Be this as it may, we could not refuse our , assent after the treaty had' been ratified : by the other party, without manifesting sometmngol caprice ; and especially when considered av the termination of an old and. embarrassing 'dispute, the Obligation upon us to ratify it seemed almost irresist- aole. v . j . , . it I have heretofore communicated to yob i; the boundary Iineas apreed upon in the : ; treaty.- between the United States and ' r Spain, but it may not be uninteresting to -state it again.

So long as the Banks exist i in iheir present state, so lone will the evils flowing from them continue to, befelti The only effectual way.-to cure; evils of any kind, is to attack Ithc source from whence they emanate. This power the people possess, and I hope they .will exert it in a manner not to be resisted by those who have fattened Lupontheir distresses, and who therefore; are interested in con tinuing the present state of things. i The revenue has again proved inade quate to meet the expenditures of govern ment. Many state ments have been fnade of the condition of the Treasury, and the ' subject appears to be involved in some un certainty, :The conrimittce of Ways aud f,4-i3, uu urc uunj gcu pariicuiary witii the investigation ofihat mattervsubmitted a report-to the; House of Uepresentatives on the 6th instant, ishewing that the ba lance against the Treasury on rthe first day of the presefttyear. was four millions five hundred and seventy-nine thousand and ninety-four dollars and ninety-nine cents (84,579.094 99i From anv views taken of the subject, even the most favor-j aoie, k .vas very evident that Congress were called upon to provide for a defici ency of several millions. A serious and Important question i was then presented, whether we should borrow money," lay taxes, cr curtail our establishments and bring the expenditures within the limit of pur receipts, rhe i last! alternative was, in my judgment, unquestionably to be pre ferred. In private life; if an individual should depend on borrowingrnoney to sup port his ordinary expences, he avIH soon find himself out of Creditand totally una ble to obtain further supplies. If he draws upon his capita, (Which may be, compar ed to a government laying taxes) to pro cure such means of indulgence, as his fan cy or folly may direct, he will Soon see thetrhis whole 'estate is exhausted. The more judicious, prudent and profitable course would be to lessen his expenditures and never go beyond his ,income. The same conduct which leads to individual, will likewise lead to national prosperity ; and it has always seemed to me, that the best way for a government to raise money is to save it. These views operated Nupdn. Congress and determined them to resort to a system of retrenchment and economy, as the surest and most RractiSniefneans of supplying any deficiency in the revenu which might hereafter arise. But there was great diversity nf j opinion as to the extent toY which this plan should be carri ed into operation.-1 Some, were for gwng through every department of the govern ment, while others thought we should at the; present session. lop off only the most proiminent branches of expenditure, -and theh stay the-work till the next session, in order to see its effects. For my own part I have been in favor of a "radical, reform, because I cannot i perceive the 1 necessity for ao great expenditures as have prevail ed in every department of the government But this preference ditl not hinder me from co-operating with others and supporting tnose measures ot, partial retrenchment Which; have been adopted. Although I cannot say we have done every thing we ought, yet lam : happy j in beinr: able to state, that something has been' done tow I ards relieving the government, and conse- 1 rassments. The appropriations made this year wilt be less by about two millions of j dollars, than they were last year: In the reduction ot the -ariny a very important saving ot about one mill ion of dollars will be effected; - You know, fellow citizens, I have always been favorable to the course of policy adopted at the present session. If it had been pursued at an earlier peri od, it is probable we should hot now see a deficiency in.; the; Treasury.
