that whatever exists beyond, should reduced or

Selection of the - articles to be taxed,
which' a due regard to the public weal would at
all times suggest to the Legislative mind. It
leaves the range of selection undefined; and
such selection should always be made with an
eye to the great interests of the country.
—Composed as is the Union, of separate and
independent States, a patriotic Legislature will
not fail in consulting the interests of the parts,
to adopt "such.course as will be best calculated
to advance the harmony of the whole; and thus
ensure that permanency in the policy of the
Government without which all efforts to ad
vanie the phblic prosperity are vain and fruit
less. ; This great and vitally important task
rests with Congress; and the Executive can do
no more than recommend the geueml princi
ples which;should govern in its execution.
I ,refer you to the report Of the Secretary of
War, for an exhibition of the condition of the
army ; and recommend to you, as well worthy
your best consideration, many of the suggestions
it contains. The Secretary in no degree ex
aggerates the great importance of pressing for
ward without delay, in the work of erecting and
finishing the fortifications, to which he particu
larly alludes. Much has been done towards
placing our cities and roadsteads in a state of
security against the hazards of hostile attacks,
within the last four years : but considering the
new elements which lave,been, of late years,
employed in the propelling of ships, and the
formidable implements of destruction which
have been brought into service, we cannot be
too active or vigilant in preparing and perfect
ing the means of defence., I refer you, also„ to
his report, for a full statement of the condition
of the Indian tribes within our jurisdiction.—
The Executive has abated no effort in carrying
into effect the well established policy of the go
vernment, which contemplates a removal of all
the tribes residing within the limits of the seve
ral States, beyond these limits; and it is now
enabled to congratulate the country at the pros
pect of an early consumation of this object.—
Many of the tribes have alreally made greatpro
grass in the arts of civilized life; and through
the operation of the schliolseitablished among
them, aided by the efforts of the pious men of
various religious denominations—who - devote
themselves to the task of their improvement—
we may fondly hope that the remains of the
formidable tribes which were once the masters
of this country will, in their transition from the
savage state, to a condition of refinement and
cultivation, add another bright trophy to . adorn
the labors sf a well-direeted philanthropy.
The accompanying report of the Secretary of
the Navy, will explain to you the situation of
that branch of the service. The - present or
ganization of the Department, imparts to its
operations great efficiency, but I concur fully
in the propriety of a division of the Bureau of
Construction, Equipment, and Repairs into two
Bureaux. ' The subjects, as now arranged, are
incongruous, and require, to a certain extent,
information and qualifications altogether dis
similar.
The operations of the squadron on the ooast
of. Africa have been conducted with all due at
tention to the object which led to its organiza
tion; and lam happy to say that the officers
and crews have enjoyed the best possible health,
under the system adopted by the officer in com
mand. It is believed the United States is the
old ation which has, by its laws r subjected
to •tar punishment of death, as pirates, those
who may be engaged in the slave-trade. A
similar enactment on the part of other na
tions would not fail to be attended by beneficial
results.
In consequence of the difficulties which have
existed in the way o securing titles for the ne
cessary grounds, operations have not yet been
commenced towards the establishment of the
Navy Yard at Memphis. So soon as - the title
is perfected, - no further delay will be permitted
to intervene. It is well worthy of your consid
eration,, whether Congress should not direct the
'establishment of a rope-walk, in connection
with the contemplated Navy Yard. as a mea
sure not only of economy, but as highly useful
and necessary. She only establishment of the
sort now connected with"the service is located
at Boston ; and the advantages of a similar
establishment, convenient to the hemp-growing
region, must be apparent to all.
The *report of the Secretary presents other
matters to your consideration, of an important
character in connection with t hei service, •
In referring you to the accompanying report
of the yostroaster General, it affords me con
tinued cause of gratification to be able to advert
to the fact, that the affairs of the Department,
for the last four years„have been so conducted
as, from its unaided resources, to meet its large
expenditures. On my coming into office a
debt of nearly $500,000 existed against the
Department, which Congress discharged by an
appropriation from the Treasury.. The De
partment, on the 4th of March next, will be
found, under the management of the present
efficient head, free of debt or embarrassment,
which could only bare been done by the obser
vance and practice of the greatest vigilance and
„economy. The laws have conteraplated,thro'.
out, that the Department should be self- sus
tained but it may become necessary, with the
wisest regard to public interests, to introduce
amendments and alterations in the system:—
There is a strong desire manifeste,,d in many
quarters. so to alter the tariff Of letter postage
PS to reduce the amount of tax at present im
posed. Should with a measure be carried in
to effect, to the full extent desired, it cannot
well be doubted but- that, i 1,7: the first year
of its operations, a diminished revcnue would
be collected, the supply of-which would Am&
aril? constitute a charge upon the Treasury.
Whether auch a result would_ be desirable, it
will bo for Congress, in its wisdom, to deter
mine. It may in general be asserted, tbat,ra
dicel alterations brink' , system should rather be
brought about gradually, than by, sudden*
changes; and by pursuing this-prudent policy
in thozeduCtion of letter postage, the.Depart
went might still Sustain through the re
venue which would accrue b 7 the increase of
letters. The state and condition of the public
Treasuiyltts, beretofore, been such as to have
preelokid the recommendation of any. material
change. The difficulties upon this head have,
hoWever, ceased; and a large discretion is DOW
left to the Government: '
cannot too strongly urge the policy of au
g the
establishment - of a line of steam
ships r n egularly to ply between this country and
foreign ports, and upon our own waists, for
.the transportation of. the mail. The example
of the British Government is well worthy of
-imitation . in this respect. The belief is strong
ly entertained thattheemoloinentsarisingfrom
the transportation 'of mail matter to foreign
countries, would operate of itself as an induce !
meat to cause individial enterprise to under
talinthat branch of the task, and the remu
•nen4ion of the Gaierninent would consist in
the Addition readily ; made to.our steam navy in,
case of emergency by the ships so employed.—
Should this suggestion meet your approve!, the •
propriety of placing such'ships under the Com
mand.of experienced officers of the Navy wilt
not escape your obseriatiOn: The eripliesition
of steam to the , purpose of „naval warfare, co
gently recommends an extensive 'steam marine
as important in estimating the defences of the
country. Fortunately, this may be attained
by us to a great extent without incurring any.
large amount of expenditure. Steam vessels
4o be engaged in the transportation of the mails
on our principal water-courses, lakes, and parts
of our coast, could also be so'constructed as to'
be.efficient as war vessels when needed; and
would of themselves constitute a formidable
fotto in order to repel attacks . from abroad.—'
We cannot be blind to the fact, that other na
tions have already 'added large numbers . of
steam ships to their naval armaments, and that
this new and powerful agent is 'destined to le
volutionize the condition of the world. It be
comes the United States therefore) looking to
their -security, to adopt a similar policy; and
the plan suggested will enable them to do so at
a small comparative cost.
I take the greatest pleasure in bearing testi
mony to the zeal and untiring industry which
has characterized the conduct of the members
of the Executive Cabinet. Each, in-his ape
propriate sphere, has rendered me the most
efficient aid in carrying on the Government,
and it will not, I trust, appear out of place for
me to bear this public testimony. The earth
nal objects which should ever be 'held in view
by those entrusted with the administration of
public affairs, are rigidly, and without favor or
- affection, so to interpret the national will, ex--
pressed in the laws, as that injustice should be
done to none—justice to all. This has been.
the rule upon . which—they have acted; and
thus it is believed that few cases, if any, exist,
wherein our fellow-citizens, who from time to
time have been drawn to the Seat of Govern
ment for the settlement of their transactions
With the Government, have gone away dissatis
fied. Where the testimony has been perfected,
and was esteemed satisfactory, their claims have
been promptly audited; and this in the ab
sence of all favoritism or partiality. The Go
vernment which is - not just to its own people
can neither claim then affection, nor the re
spect of the world. At the same time the
closest attention has been paid to those matters
which relate more immediately to the great
concerns of the country. Order and efficiency
in each bran& of the public ,service, have pre
vailed, accompanied by a system of the most
rigid responsibility on the part of the receiving
and disbursing agents. The fact, in illustra
tion of the truth of this remark, deserves fp be
noticed, that the revenues of the Government,
amounting in the last four years to upwards of
$120,000,000, have been collected and disburs
ed, through the numerous Governuiental agents,
without the lost, by •default, of any amount
worthy of serious commentary.
. .
The appropriations made by Congress for the
improvement of the rivers of the West, and of
the harbors of the lakes. ere in a course of ju
dicious expenditure under suitable agents; and
are destined, it is to be hoped, to realize all the
benefits designed to be accomplished by Con
gress. I cannot, however, sufficiently impress
upon Congress, the great importance of with
holding appropriations from improvements
which are not ascertained, by previous exami
nation and survey, to be necessary for the shel
ter and proteetion of trade from the dangers of
storms rind tempests. Without this precaution,
the expenditures are but too apt to enure to
the benefit of individuals ; without reference to
the only consideration which can render them
constitutional—the public interests and the
general - good.
I cannot too earnestly urge upon you the in
terests of this District, over which, by the
Constitution, Congress has exclusive jurisdic
tion. It would be deeply to be regretted shorild
there be, at any time, ground to complain of
neglect on the part of a community which, de
tached as it is from the parental . care of the
States of Virginia and Maryland, can only ex
pect aid from Congress. as its local legislature.
Amongst the subjects which claim your atten
tion, is the prompt organization of ailmsylum
for the insane, who may be found, from time
to time, sojourning within the District. Such
course is also demanded by considerations
which apply to branches of the public service.
For the necessities in this behalf, I invite your
particular attention to the report of the Secreta
ry of the Navy.
thus, gentlemen-rof t two Houses of
Congress, presented you a rue and faithful
picture of the,condition of üblic affairs, both

of no ordinary importance are urged upon your

that period questions :With foreign powers, of
