REPLY OF Mr BUCHANAN.
ff'ashinglon Ci'ly, Feb. 2 1843.
Gentlemen Your letter of coneratula
tion, on my recent re election to the Senate
of ihe United States, has inspired me with
feelings of profound gratitude. To have
been thrice elected to this eminent station
by the democratic Senators and Representa
tives of my native stare, is an honor, winch
ought to satisfy tho ambition of any man
and its value is greatly enhanced by your
assurance, that in selecting me for another
term, you but acted in accordance with (he
united .voice of the democratic partv of
Pennsylvania. So highly do I prize their
good opinion, that I can declare with heart-
fell tincerity, I would not forfeit this for all
the political honors which my country
could oestow. i neir uusoiiqited and con
tinueu support naye comerreo upon me
whatever of distinction in public life I may
enjoy; and if it were possible for me now
lo desert their principles, I should feel that
I deserved a traiior s doom. Instead of
being elated, I am humbled by the con
sciousness of how lillle I have over done to
merit all their unexampled kindness.
Ut at political parties winch nave ever
existed, the democratic parly are the most
iudulgent and confiding masters. All they
demand of any public servant is honestly
mm imiiiiuiiy to represent ujeir principles
in the station where they hsive placed himj
and fee proudly conscious that 1 havo
ilone in llicSotialo of the United Stales,
according to my best ability. 1 canlheie
fore, offer you no pleilgo for. my luture con
duct, except the guarantee of tlie past.
You have been further pleased to say
Ithat as Pennsylvatiians you, de?Jro to see
ma 'elevaleJ to ilia highest oinco in Ilio gift
of tho people, anil you. tender me
to the
Union as Pennsylvania's favorite
candidate
for the next Piesidency.' I can solemnly
declare thai I was wholly unprepared for
such tin nmuiticlation from tho democratic
members of the legislature, ha"ing never
received the slightest intimation of their
mention, until after their letter had been
actually signed.
Molli principles and -.becoming sense ol
the merit of others,, havo hitherto prevented
me from taking any, even the least pari, in
promoting my own elevation lo tha
Presidency. 1 Iia"o no ambitious
ongings to gratify, conscious as 1 am that
I have already received more of the offices
and honors of my country than I have ever
deserved. If I know my own hear), I
should most fieely resign any pretensions
which Ihe partiality of frieiids has set up
fsr me, if by this I could purchase hnrmonv
and unanimity in the selection of a dem
ocratic candidate. IJcsides, however pro
per It may bo that candidates for inferior
offices should make pcuorial efforts to se
cure, success 1 am deeply convinced, thai
the highest office under Heaven, ought lo
be the voliiniaty gift of the only freo peo
ple upon earth. No man can justly claim
it from the peoplo as a mailer ol right.
ought lo bo tiner own spontaneous
gift to the most worthy, and this
this alone can render it tlie crowning glory
of a well spent public like. This alone
can prevent the Hanger of our institutions
which mtist result Irom the 'Violent strug
gles of personal and interested parlizaus,
t he principles ol the man whom the peo
ple may thus delight lo honor, ought to
have borne the test of long and severe ser
cc, and ought to stand out in such bold
relief before his country, ns In place all
doubt in regard to ihein at defiance. In
my opinion, tho candidalo who would
either intrigue, oi personally electioneer for
the Presidency, raises a strong presiunp
tion that he is unworthy ot it. V hether it
be probably that a man resolved, under the
blsssing of Providence, to act upon these
principle?, will ever reach the Presidency,
you can judge better than myself. I ought,
however, in justico lo myself to observe,
thai whilst this is my fixed purpose. I do
not feel the less grateful lo those kind and
partial friends who have deemed me worthy
of the highest effice, because I have never
attempted to enlist them in my support,
With these views plainly presented be
foro ihe democracy of Pennsylvania, if
they should resolve to offer my name to
the National Oonvenlum as a candidate lor
the Presidency, with that degree of unan
imity which can alone give moral forco to
their recommendation, 1 feel that I ought
ttiey determine diiTcretuly, this wilj not be
to mo a cause of the slightest mortification.
One remark I am impelled to make be
fore closing IVis letter. The principles and
ihe success of tho democratic party so im-
moasurahlv ttanscend in importance the
elevation of any indiyidunl, that they ought
tvoi to ce jeopanien, in tne slightest degree,
by personal partiality for either of the can
didates. Every candidate who has been
named, and hundreds of individuals whose
names have not been mentioned, would
ably and faithfully administer the govern
ment, according to these principles. No
good demncral, therefore, ouUo suffer his
r. .i i : ... i . r
meungs to oc l'iiiimuu in layor oi anv one
candidate, that fie could not yield his cheer
lul and cordial support to any other who
may do nominated by the National Con
ventinn.
Wilh sentiments of groat respect,
I remain yours, sincerely
JAMES BUCHANAN.

Speaker of VleHoust of lirprcsentaticcs
Sir : In reply to a resolution of , the
House of Representatives, of (ho 4 ih 'mat,
which is as follows !
"Resolved, That ihe Slalo Treasurer bo
directed to furnish this Hotiso with a state
ment showing the ncttial amount of money
now in iho Treasury. Also, What In his
opinion, will be tho receipts upglo the first
day Of April next, and what tho expendi
tures up to the same period, agreeably to
the present appropriations, allowing 3300,-
000 for cancelling relief notes, between the
fust of February and the first of April."
I have the honor lo stale, thai the amount
of money in the Treasury(avnilnble) on the
first day of this month, was one hundred &
eighty-one thousand, eight hundred an
twuniy seven dollars and eighty six cents:
and oh depositc in sundry bank and liar
risburg Savings Institution (available) the
further cum of eighty four thousand, fuur
hundred and thirty six dollars and eighty
three' cents. There is in addition to this,
unavailable depositee, to the amount of
$415,034 07, viz:

74,171 07
SI 15,034 07
The foregoing stalemenjs do not contain
the amount received from the General Go
vernment, on account of the proceeds of the
sale of the public lands.
1 he amount that will be received into the
Treasury, during the month of February
and March, in my opinion, will not exceed
one hundred and Vhirly thousand dollars;
being a period when but little is received
KouMhe public works, and but few pay
menu are made by County Treasurers.
I he payment or demands on tho Treasury
for the same period, allowing lo be cancell
ed of relief notes S300.000, will amunt to
$475,000, making a deficit between the
receipts into the 1 reasnry, including the
S40.000 retained on the 1st February, lo
meet the ordinary demands on lle 1 reasury
under the provisions of tho act of 27lh of
July last, and the demands on the Treasury
including the 9300,000 or relief notes to be
cancelled, of $305,000. But of the 300,
000 to be cancelled, there has actually been
31UU,UUU cancelled,which leaves tho actual
deficit of $205,000.
By way ol explanation, I have appended
hereto a statement.
It ia evident that tho Treasury will nol
be able to meei the demands thereon, and
' i aimiuiu, requifeu oy mo Act ol
Assembly to be caneellcd. 1 would, .there
fore, very lespectfuSly submit to tlie Legis.
lature ihe propriety of making provisions as
to ihe manner of making payments at the
Treasuiy, inasmuch, as under the present
stale of things, I am at a loss to know
whether the whole amount of reljef notes in
the Treasury, and such as may be received
until the amount directed lo be cancelled is
made up.shall be retained at the commence
ment of each month; all payments being
suspended during that time, and after that,
lo pay the first claims presented or post
pone all payments to the end of the monlh,
and then make a pro rata dividend amongsi
ihe claims. In the event of the funds being
insufficient to meet the demando, other lhn
the interest on the funded debt, it ought not
lo be left to the State Treasurer, to deer
mino what claims should be paid, and what
postponed.
I have the honor to be, very respectfully
your obtdient servant,
