c ountry in 1840: •
'he amount of expenditure& in a go

e times.
Looking to all these, it Is - manifest
4 the expenses tinder the administra ,

The average expenses,: independent
of theldebt, were only about $14,000,-

,Jackson's
terms, and,,takinghis and Mr. Van Bu

000,000;, and this, including everjr-.
thing temporary and extraordinary.—
(See Mr. Ewing's report at the extra ,
session, 1841, to the, House of Repre-.
sentativee, No. 31 , , Making the average
only $21,108,251.) - 1
• This is the naked- truth, as proved
by the reports of whig Secretaries, in
stead" of an expenditureof fOrty millions
annually;''- lies so often reckless- -
ly charged in the canvass of HMO,. But
our opponents held out , that, "under
them, a reduction of the expenses was
to lie made, not merely to twenty and
eighteen millions, but to thirteen mil-
Items of dollars, yearly ; and this frqm
a, quarter, among many• others, not
likely to be gainsaid as not authorita
tive with , the whig party. ""The an
nual expenditure (said Mr, Clay)-may,
in a reasonable time, be . brought ddwn
frtifn its present amount of almost forty
millions to near one-third of that sum."
(Mr. Clay's 'speech at Hanover court
house, inlB4o, reported in the Nation
al Inielligeocer of July 15, 1840. Hav
ing shown already the groundlessness 1
of that charge about forty millions, let
us see- a ) moment how the- deliberate
expectations held Out, accompanying it,
have been, disappointed. Instead- of
keeping down the expenses of 1841
below twenty millions, which Mr. Van
Buren's administration proposed—in
- steartOf economising as the exigencies
of the times andsheir own pledges re
quired-, even to 'thirteen millions—the
1,,
' whig'; as soon as fully s a ted in power,
convOned an extra sessio of Congress,
andliegan forthwith to vote\
way more
,'money. They gave outright something
`like twenty-five thousand dollars to Mrs.
Harrison. They added object after obt
ject, arid scheme on scheme, without
I any, extraordinary emergency, , till, be-
Ore their adjournment, the aggregate
of new appropriations equalled from
five to six millions. It was thus that
the expenies of that year, instead of
being kept down at nineteen or twenty
millions, ;were swollen to more than
twenty-six millions ; and have never
since been reduced by our opponents,
nor proposed to be reduced so low,
within eight or' ten millions, as had
been promised before the election. Not
to rest, any of this on assertion, a table
is annexed, compiled from the reports
of their own officers.—(See annual
- Treasury report, December, 1843, pp,,
30, 31, appendik.) -" Expenses' inde
pendent of the public debt and treasury
notes—
1n,1841, (a) - - -526,394,343
In 1842 - - 23;924,057
In 1843, (b) = 22,560,224
In 1844, (c) - - , 26,877,059.
(a . ) As some persons might wish to see the
whole amount of nominal expenditures ' includ
ing treasury notes . and debt, we give tlie only
two years of the whig administration (1841-2)
'which areOmplete, from the same report, and
the two. which preceded them : 1839, 536,117,-
176-1840, $26,437,761-1841, 02,092,724
—1842, $32;398,906. This makes the two
whig years the highest by the sum of 51,936,-
703.
(b) Estimated one quarter of the calender
year. Three - quarters ascertained—sl6,92o,-
193 ; add•one quarter at the same rate.
(c) - Estimatedby the Secretary, for the fis
cal year:.
This is, on an average, 824,938,110
a year"; and theNesult will probably
exceed that, unless the democratic par
ty succeed in cutting down some of the
large expenses for 1844. This is al
most twelve millions a year greater
than was promised before the election;
is ten t!co eleven milliOns more yearly
than the.average,expeases under Gen
eral Jackson, and three to four•millions
more annually than the average of Gen
eral Jackson's and Mr. Van Buren's
terms tinited.
Another consideration connected with
this subject, and I leave it for the pre
sent.
Besides the reiterated charge of great
expendifures in amount under Mr. Van
Buren, which - the'whigs engaged to re
form and reduce to about thirteen . mil
lions yearly—bqi, which, instead of
lowering, thfrifave actually increased,
from the twenty-two and a half millions
- pi* his last year, to more than ltwenty
six millions in one,-,-and 'higher than
that proposed in another year—they
complained'grievously that theexpen
see under Mr. Van Buren were not diet
by the 'revenue of each. year. 1 It is true,
that, including appropriations added by
Congreas, and
. large draw-backs of re
venue not stepped, though requested, a
deficiency occurred'of about five and a
half millions - in the whole four . years ;
i i
and, in conseqbence of that, 0 i nething
like that sun, 'had been adde to the
temporary debt on the 4th o March,
1841, when Mr. Van Buren went out
of power. ..(See Mr. Formard's report
to the Senate,l
No. 41, January 10,
1842.) But thii:was the.whole of the
falseforty million debt, created under
him ; while, as to the $26,742,948 debt
which, according to the, last annual
report fronthe Treasury; now:osists—
all of it, but that five or sii millions,
has been, created, since, except about a
quarter of a million of the old debt, and
a tnillion and a third assumed bi•Con
-gress on account of the:District of Co
lumbia. Indied; Mr. Clay - went so
far, in Woids," - as 'to pledge himself, and
caused his fiiend in the. Senate to
pledge , ihemielves, to prevent such a
course . ; but still recklessly plunged in-
They 'united most harmoniously in
passing' this resolution: Oaken from
the Journal in February, 1842 :)
"Resolved, That it is the duty of
the General Government to prnvide an
adeqnate revenue -within the year 'to
meedhe current expense 'of the year ;
and "that any expedient, either by loan
or by treasury notes, to supply, in time
of peace, a deficieney of revenue, espe
cially during successive years, is un
wise, and must lead 't6 pernicious coa
sequences.',' l
Yet; it the face of this, he and his
friends have, every year since ,they
came into' power,violated both the spir-
it and letter or the resolve: They be
gan by givinglaway the revenue from
the public lands, and nettlailed entire
ly in providing what was adequate from
other sources. They have, every year
after, in a peried.of profound peac.:4 re
sorted to the shifts of new loans or new
treasury notes. And; after thus swel
ling the debt to more than twenty-six
millions, they contemplate an expendi
ture this year and the next, which; un
less prevented by retrenchment or new
taxation on the people, will eaute
further deficiency and debt, "whiph the
Secretary of the Treasury estima'es at
$8,577,059 more. At the end of next
year, if things go on in this way, their
debt may reach $35,000,000. How
much they will retrench in expenses,
to obviate this, unless forced into it by
persevering firmness on the part of de
inocratic members—whose unflagging
exertions have accomplished all hither-
to effected—can be inferred from the
past.
In the Senate, where Mr. Clay's ma
jority has been decided during the whole
period, numerous additions of appro
priations and expenses have originated,
rather than retrenchments; and, among
the former, that most unwarrantable
.donation to Whig printers of near fifty
thousand dollars. There, the reduc-
!ions attempted by democrats in the
other house have also been thwarted in
many cages, and in others defeated.—
And_there, last, but not least, in strong
proof that the Whig patly, as a party,
meditate no real retrenchment, in ex
penses—there, where Clay whigs out
number all opposed to them—the great
leader himself got up a committee of
retrenchment, and had his colleague
placed at the head .of it. But, incredi
ble as it might seem, never, to the pre
sent moment—never has a single' re
port of any kind come from that com
mittee; never a single dollar of retrench
ment been proposed; never a: shilling
to'be.:saied to the public treasury,
nor a single burden on the people re
commended to be lightened.
From, this signal example let an in
telligenfyeomanryoearn the utter worth
lessness of all whig professtons as to
economy and retrenchment , in the pub
lic expenses.
, Let it not be forgotten, that, up to
this session, the Clay whigs have had
a decided majority in both Houses Of
Congress, over both democrats arid
Tyler men ; and have thus controlled
the laws, authorizing expenses as well
as receipts.
What prudent citizen can rally to
the polls for the election of spendthrifts
like these for leaders ?who keep the
promise of frugality and- retrenament
to the ear, but break it to 'the hopes—
who prostrated the public credit at one
time, in•the close of 1,841 and first half
of 1842, so as not to he able to borrow
a dollar at par,, and never restored it
till adopting democratic . counsels and
taking..back the proceeds of the public
lands—:hul who became for months
unable to 'meettheir debts, and, if let
alone, W - ould have required a bankrupt
law for the General Government itself,
as ample as that they passed to sponge
out the private debts of many of their
political friends anti public officers !
