    thcr In legal not a moral sense bound for the
debts of the States, and it would be a violation
of our Compact of Union to assuino them, yet we
Cannot but feel deep interest in seeing all the
States meet their public liabilities, and pay off
tneir just deuts, at the earliest practicable pe
riod. That they will do bo, as noon at it can be done
without imposing too heavy burdens on their
cttisens, there in no reason to doubt. The sound,
moral and honorable feeling of the people of the
indebted States, cannot be questioned ; and we
are happy to perceive a settled disposition on
their part, as their ability returns, after a season
f unexampled pecuniary embarrassment, to pay
off all just demands, and to acquiesce in any
reasonable measures to accomplish that object.
One of the difficulties which we have hnd to
encounter in the practical administration of the
government, cons sis in the adjustment of our
revenue laws, and the levy of the taxes neces
sary for the support of government. In the
general proposition, that no more money shall
be collected than the necessities ot an Economi
cal administration shall require, all patties seem
to acquiesce. Nor does there seem to be any
material difference of opinion as to the absence
of right in the government to tax one section of
country, or one class of citizens, or one occu
pation, for the mere profit of another. "'Justice
and sound policy forbid the federal government
to foster one branch of industry to the detriment
of another, or to cherish the interests of one
portion to the injury of another portion of our
common country."
I have heretofore declared to my fellow citi
zens, that, in "my judgment it is the duty of the
Government to extend, as far as it may be prac
ticable to do so, by its revenue laws, and all o
ther means within its power, fair ami just pro
tection to all the great interests of the whole
Union, embracing ssrictitture, manufactures,
the mechanic arts, commerce and navigation."
I have also declared my opinion to be "in fa
vor of a tariff for revenue," and that "in adjust
ing the details of such s tariff, I hse sanc
tioned such moderate discriminating duties as
would produce the amount of revenue needed,
Hnd, ot the same time, afford reasonable, inci
dents' protection to our home industry," and
that I was "opposed to a tariff for protection
merely, and not lor revenue."
The power ' to lay and collect taxes, duties,
imposts and excises," was an indispensable one
to be conferred on the federal government,
which, without it, would possess no means of
providing tor its own support. In executing
this power, by levying a tariff of duties for the
support of government, the raising of rr venue
should be the object, and protection the inci
dent. To reverse this principle, and male pro-
ec'ton the nhjrct, and revenue the incident,
would he to inflict manifest injustice upon all
other than the protected intercuts. In levying
duties for revenue, it is doubtless proper to
make such discriminations within the revenue
principle, as will afford incidental protection
to our home interests. Within the revenue li
mit there is a discretion to discriminate ; be
yond that limit the lightful exercise of the pow
er is not conceded.
The incidental protection afforded toour home
interests by discriminations within the revenue
range, it is believed will be ample.' In making
discriminations, all our home interests should,
nstar as practicable, be equally protected. The
largest portion of our people are agriculturists.
Oiher are employed in manufactures, com
merce, navigation, and the mechanic arts.
They are all engaged in their respective pur
suits, and their joint labors constitute the nation
al or home indu-try. To tax one branch of this
home industry for the benefit of another, would
beunjust. No one of these interests can right
fully claim an advantage over the others, or to
be enriched by impoverishing the others. All
are equally entitled to the fostering care and
protection of the government.
In exercisini' a sound discretion in levying
discriminating duties w it Inn the limits prescrib
ed, care should h liken that it bo done in a
manner not to ben fit the wealthy few, st the
expense of the toiling millions, by taxing lowest
the luxuries of life, or articles of superior quali
ty and high price, wheh can only be consumed
by the wealthy ; nnd highc-t the necessaries ol
life, or articles of Conrse quality and low price,
which t he poor end great mass of our people
must consume.
The burdens of Government should, as far as
practicable, be dist ribut.-d justly ond equally a
lining all classes of our population. These ge
tiersl views, long enterta ini-d on this subject, I
have deemed it proper to reiterate. It is a sub
ject upon which conflicting interests of sections
ond occupations are supposed to exist, and a spi
rit of mutual concession and compromise in ad
justing its details should bn cherished by every
part of our wide-spread country, as the only
mesne of preserving harmony and a cheerful
acquiescence of all in the operation of our re
venue laws.
Our patriotic citizens in every part of the U
ninn will readily submit to the payment of such
(axes as shall he needed for the support of their
government, whether in peace or in war, if they
are so levied as to distribute the burdens as e
qnally as possitde among them.
The -republic of Texas has marie known her
desire to come into our Union, to form a part of
our confederacy, and enjoy with us the blessings
of liberty, secured and guuranteid by our consti
tution. Texas was once a pnrt of our country
waaunwisely ceded away to a foreign power
is novv independent, and possesses an undoubt
ed right to dispose of a part or the whole of her
territory, and lo merge her sovereignly, as a
separate and independent State, in ours."
I congratulate my country that, by an act of
the late Congress of the U. States, t ho assent
of this government has been given to the reu
nion ; and it only remains for the two countries
to agree upon the terms, to consummate au ob
ject so important to both.
I regard the question of annexation at belong
ing exclusively to the United States and Tex
as. They are independent powers, competent
lo contract ; and foreign nations have no right
to interfere with them, or to take exceptions to
their re-union. Foreign powers do not seem
to appreciate the true character of our govern
ment. Our Union is a confederation of independent
States, whose policy is peace with each other
and all the world. To enlarge its limits, ia to
extend the dominion of peace over additional
territories am) increasing millions. The world
has nothing to fear from military ambition in our
government.
While the Chief Magistrate and the popular
branch of Congress are elected for short terms
by the suffrages of those millions who must, in
their own persons, bear all the burdens and mi
series of war, our government cannot be other
wise than pacific.
Foreign powers should, therefore, look on the
annexation of Texas to the United State?, not
as the conquest oft nati-j ,eeking to exjlltl
her doming-lg by rm tnJ vi0ience ,,,,,,
peaceful acquisition of territory once ber own,
by adding another member to our confederation
with the consent of that member thereby di
minishing the chances of war, and opening to
them new and ever-increasing markets for their
products.
To Texas the re-union is important, because
the strong protecting arm of our government
would be extended over her, and the vast re
sources of her fertile soil and genial climate
would be speedily developed, while the safety
of New Orleans and of our whole southwestern
frontier against the hostile oggression, as" well
as the interests of the whole Union, would be
promoted by it.
in the earlier stages of our national existence,
the opinion prevailed with some, that our sys
tem of confederated states could not operate suc
cessfully over an extended territory, and serious
objections have, at different limes, been made
to the enlargement of our boundaries. These
objections were earnestly urged when we acqui
red Louisiana. Experience has shown that they
were not well founded. The title of numerous
Indian tribes to vast tracts of country has been
extinguished. New States have been admitted
into the Union; new territories have been cre
ated and our jurisdiction and laws extended o
ver them.
As our population baa expanded, the Union
has been cemented and strengthened ; as our
boundaries have been enlarged, and our agri
cultural population has been spread over a
large surface, our confederative system has ac
quired additional strength and security. It may
well be doubted whether it would not be in
greater danger of overthrow if our present pop.
illation were confined to the comparatively nar
row limits of the original thirteen States, than
it is, now that they are sparsely settled over it
more expanded territory- It is confidently
b.di"ved that our system may be safely ex
tended to the utmost bound.! of our territorial li
mits ; and that, as it shall be extended, the
bonds of our Union, so f.ir from being weaken
ed, will become stronger.
None can fail to see the danger to our safety
and future peace, if Texas remains an indpen
dent State, or becomes an ally or dependency of
some foreign nation more powerful than herself.
Is there one among our citi.ens who would not
prefer perpetual peace with Texas, to occasional
wars, which so often occur between bordering
independent nations ? Is there one who would
not prefer free intercourse with her, to high du
ties on all our products and manufactures which
enter her ports or cross her frontiers ? Is there
one who would not prefer an unrestricted com
munication with her citizens, to the frontier ob
structions which mut occur if she remains out
of the Union ? Whatever is good or evil in the
local institutions of Texas, will remain her own.
whether annexed to the United States or not.
None of the present States will be responsible
for them, any more thon they are for the local
institutions of each other. They have confeder
ated together for certain specified objects.
Upon the same principle that they would re
fuse to form a perpetual Union with Texas, be
cause of her local institutions, our forefathers
would have been prevented from forming our
present Union. Perceiving no valid objection to
the measure, and many reasons for its adoption
vitally affecting the peace, the safety, and the
prosperity of both countries, I shall, on the broad
principle .which formed the basis and produced
the adoption of our constitution, and not in any
narrow spirit of sectional policy, endeavor, by
all constitutional, honorable and appropriate
means, to consummate the expressed will of the
people and government ol the United States, by
the re-annexation of Texas to our Union at the
earliest practicable period.
Nor will it become in a less degree my duty
to assert and maintain, by all constitutional
means, the right of the United States to that por
tion of our territory which lies beyond the .Rocky
Mountains. Our title to the country of the Ore.
gon is "clear and unquestionable;" and already
are our people preparing to perfect that title by
occupying it with their wives and children. P.n't
eighty years ago, our population was confined on
the west by the ridge of the Alleghanies! With
in that period within the lifetime, I might say,
of some of my hearers our people, increasing to
many millions, have filled the eastern valley of
the Mississippi; adventurously ascended the
Missouri to its head springs ; and are already en
gaged in establishing the blessings of self-government
in valleys, of which the rivers flow to
the Pacific.
The world beholds the peaceful triumphs of
the industry of our emigrants. Tons belongs
the duty of protecting them adequately where
ever they may be upon our soil. The jurisdiction
of our laws, and the benefits of our republican
institutions, should be extended over them in the
distant regions which they have selected for their
homes. The increasing facilities of inteicnurse
will easily bring the States, of which the forma- ,
tion in that part of our territory cannot be long
delayed, within the sphere of our federative
Union. In the mean time every obligation im
posed by treaty or conventional stipulations
should be sacredly respected.
In the management of our foreien relations, it
will be my aim to observe a careful respect for
the rights of other nations, while our own will
be the subject of constant watchfulness. Kqnal
and exact justice should characterize all our in
tercourse with foreign countries. AH alliances
having a tendency to jeopard the welfare and
honor of our country, or sacrifice any one of the
national interests, will be studiously avoided;
and yet no opportunity will be lost to cultivate a
favorable understanding with foreign govern
ments, by which our navigation and comii erce
may be extended, and the ample products of our
fertile soil, as well as the manufactures of our
skillful artisans find a ready market and remune
rating prices in foreign countries.
In taking 'care that the laws be faithfully ex
ecuted,' a strict performance of duty will be ex
octed from all public officers. From those offi
cers, especially, who are charged with the collec
tion and disbursement of the public revenue,
will prompt and rigid accountability be required.
Any culpable failure or delay on their part to
account for the moneys instructed to them, at the
times and in the manner required by law, will,
in every instance, terminate the official connex
ion of such defaulting officer with the govern
ment. Although, in our country, the chief magistrate
must almost of necessity be chosen by a party,
and stand pledged to its principles and measures,
yet, in tus oiiiciul action, he should not be the
President of a party only, but of the whole peo
ple of the U. States. While he executes the law
with an impartial hand, shrinks from no proper
responsibility, and faithfully carries out, in the
executive department of the government, the
principles and policy of those who have chosen
him, he should not be unmindful that our fellow
citizens who have differed with him in opinion
are entitled to the full and free exercise of their
opinions and judgments, and that the right of
all are entitled to equal respect and regard..
Confidently relying on the aid and assistance
of the co-ordinate apartments of the Government
in conducting our public affairs, enter upon the
discbarge of the high dutK.g which hove been as
signed me by the people, again humbly suppli.
eating that l):,v',ne Heine who has watched over
and Jy'iected our beloved country from it in
fancy to the present hour, to continue His gra
cious benedictions upon us, tbst we may con
tinue to be a prosperous and happy people.
