President Buchanan's Message
IVc pulliMi to day o poilion of tLo first
Annual Mcssago of Hid President of tLo
United States. Tho President approves
of H10 action of ilio Lceomplon Convention,
which framed a Constitution for tho ad
mission of Kansas, as a State iulo the
Union, nnd adds, if "a largo proportion of
tho citizens of Kansas, did notilunl proper
to register iheir names, and vote at tho
election for Delogatcs, an opportunity to
do this having Leon fairly afforded, their
refusal to avail themselves of their' right,
could in no wanner affect tho legality of
tho Convention," This sentiment is in-
dirativc of Hio falrnoss which pervades tho
entire Message, and assures us that it fully 1
nicc'S putmo expectation, and is worthy
tho pen and hand of Pennsylvania's States
man and an American Democratic President

In connection with tho decrease, it should
bo remembered, that tho rates, of toll on
Coal which is the principal item of freight,
was reduced one-sixth tho present year
And also, tho sale of tho Main Line reduces
tho rates further about one-third of all

TO TIIH
TWO HOUSES OP CONGRESS.
Fellow oititens of Ike Senate and House of
.1. - - J ,
licprcscmaiivcs .- ,
In obedienco to tho command of tho
Constitution, it has now become my duty
"to givo to Congress information of tlio
state of tho Union, and recommend to their
consideration such measures" as I mav
judge to bo "necessary and expedient."
iiui irrsi, aau auovo all, our llianks are
due to Alnuebty God for tho numerous
boiiefits which Uo has bestowed upon this
peoplo J arid Our United prayers ought to
ascend to Him that Ho would contiuuo to
bless our groat republic -in timo to como as
Uo has Mossed it in timo past, Since tho
adjournment of'tho last Conarcss. our con
stituents havo enjoyed an unusual degree
of health, Tho earth has yicldod her
fruits abundantly, and has bountifully re
warded the toil of tho husbandman, Our
great staples have commanded high prices,
anu, up till within a bnel period, our
manufacturing, mineral nnd mechanical
occupations havo largely partaken of tho
general prosperity. Wo hive possessed all
tho elements of material wealth in rich
abundance, and yet, notwithstanding all
theso advantages, our country, in Its mo
netary interests, is at tho present moment
in a deplorable condition. In tho midst of
unsurpassed plonly in all tho productions
01 agriculture, and in all tlio Clements ol
national woalth, wo find our manufactures
suspended, our publi.! works retarded, our
privato enterprises of different kinds aban
doned, and thousands of useful laborers
thrown out of employment and reduced to
want. Tho revenuo of tho government,
which is chiefly derived form duties on im
ports from abroad,hasbeon greatly reduced,
whilst tho appropriations made by Congress
at its last session for the current ficalycar
are very largo in amount.
Under theso oircumstmccs a loan may
bo required beforo the close of your present
session ; but this, although deeply to bo
regretted, would prove to be only a slight
misfortune wbco compared with the suffer
ing and distress prevailing among the
people. With this tho government cannot
tail deeply to sympathize, though it may
be without the power to extend relief.
It is our duty to inquire what has pre-
durcd such unfortunate results, and whether
their recurrence can be prevented t In all
former revulsions the blamo might have
been fairly attributed to a variety of co
operating causes ; but not so upon tho
present occasion. It is apparent that our
existing misfortunes have proceeded solely
from our extravagant and vicious system
of paper currency and bank credits, exci
ting (ho people to wild speculations and
gambling in stocks. These revulsions must
continue to recur at succcssivo intervals so
long as tho amount of tho paper currency,
anuoanu l-ans and otsnminf. ct .h 2,,,, , .
shall bo left 'o the discretion of fourteen 1
hundred irresponsible banking institutions, I
which from tho very law of their nature I
will consult the intcrrst of their stockhuld
ors rather than tho public welfare.
The framers of tho Constitution, when
tbey gave to Congress tho power "to coin
money and to reguldte tho valuo thereof,"
,..l.n,li.,l .1.. Ci.i.. r
money, omittiDg bills of credit, or making
anything but gold and silver coin a tender
in payment 0f debts, supposed tbov had :
protected the people against tho evils of an t
excessive and irredeemable paper currency.
They aro not responsible for tho cxistiii2 1
anomaly that Government endowed with I
tho sovereign attributo of ooining money 1
and regulating tha valuo thereof, should
hive no power to prevent others from
driving this coin out of tho country and
filling up tho channels of circulation with
paper wuicti uocs not represent gold and
silver.
It is one of the highest and most rospon-
siblo duties of government to insuro to the
people a sound circulating medium, tbo
amount of which ought to bo adapted with
the utmost posiiblo wisdom and skill to tho
wants of internal irado and foreign ex
changes. If this bo either .greatly abovo
or greatly below tho proper standard, tho
marketable valuo of every man's property
is increased or diminished in tho same
proportion, and injustice to individuals as
well as incalculable cviLs to tho community
arc tho consequence.
Unfortunately, under tho construction of
the Federal Constitution, which has now
prevailed too lonp; to bo clianseu, this im -
portant and delicate duty has been dissev
crcd from tho coining power and virtually
transferred tj moro than fourteen hundred
Stato banks, actiug independently of each
other, and regulating their paper issues
alni'ift exclusively by a regard to the pro -
sent interest ot tuctr stockholders. Jiscr
eising tho sovereign power of providing a
paper curronoy, instead of coin, for tho
country, tho first duty which tho.'o banks power, to aid in alleviating tho sufferings
owo to tho publio i3 to keep iu their vaults of tho people occasioned by tbo suspension
a sufficient amount of gold and silver to. of the banks, and to provido against a re

truo touchstone, tho only efficient regulator
of a paper currency tho only odo which
can guard tho publio against over issues
and bank suspensions. As a collateral
and eventual security it is doubtless wise,
and in all casos ought to bo required, that
banks shall hold an amount of United States
or tato securities equal to their notes iu
circulation and pledged for their redemp
tion. This, however, lurnishes no adequato
security sgaiust over issues. On tho con
trary, it may be perverted to inflato tho
currency. Indeed, it is possiblo by this
mn. tn convert all the debts of thn United
States and Stato governments into bank
notes, without releronco to tue spooio re

separated tho issuoof notes from tho banking
department, lor tho JJinlc or England
always to. keep on baud gold and silver
equal to ono third of its combinod circula
tion and deposits, If Ibia proportion was
no moro than 'sufficient to secure tho con
vertibility of its notes, with tho wholo of
(.treat llritatn, and to somo extent tho
continont of liuropo, as a field for its cir
culation, rendering it almost irapossiblo
that a sudden and immcdiato run to a
dangerous amount flheuld be made upon It,
the same proportion would certainly ho
insufficient under our banking sys'em.
Each of our fourteen hundred banks has
but a limited circunifcreneo for it? circula
tion, and in tho course of a very few days
tho depositors and note holders might
demand from such a bank a sufficient
amount in snecio to coninel it to susnend. 1
oven nlthough it had n in its vaults
equal to' one third ol its immcdiato liabili' '
ties. Andyct..I am not aware, with tho
exception of the banks of Louisiana, that
anv St.iln bint- lliroTiMiout tbn Ili.lnn lias
been required, bv its charter to keep tiiis j
or any proportion of gold and bilvor coin
pared with tho amount of its combined
circulation and deports. What has bcon
tho conseqneiiqol In a recont report mauo
by tbo Treasury Department on Iho con
dition of tho banks throughout the different
States, according to returns dated nearest
to January, 1857, the aggregate nniount
of actual specie In their vaults is 58,310,.
838, of their circulation S213,778,822, and
of their deposits 230,351,312. Thus it
appeirs that theso banks 111 tho aggrogato
havo considerably less than ono dollar in
sovon of gold and silver compared with 1
their circulation and deposits. It was .
palpable, therefore, that tho very fint '
pressure must drivo them to suspension,
and deprivo tho people of a convertible
currency with all its disastrous consequen-'
ccs. It is truly wonderful that theyshould
havo so long continued fo prcsorvo their ,
credit, when a demand for tho payment of !
ono seventh of their immcdiato liabilities j
would have driven them into solvency.
And this is the condition of tho banks, '
notwithstanding that four hundred millions
of cold from California havo flowed in 1
upou us within tho last eight years, and '
the tide still continues to flow. Indeod,
such Ins been the, cxtravaganco of bank
credits that the banks now hold a consid
erable loss amount of specie, cither iu
proportion to their capital or to their cir
culation and deposits combini-d, than they
did before the discovery of gold in Califor
nia. Whilst in tho year 1848 their specie
in proportion to their capital was m re than
equal to one dollar for four and a halt, in
1807 it does not amount to ono dollar for
every six dollars and thirty-threo cents of
their capital, In tho year lo lS the specie
was equal within a very small traction to
onn dollar in five of their circulation and
deposites; in 1857 it is not equal to ono
dollar in seven and a half of their circuh
tion and drpositc3,
rrom tins sia'ementu is easy to account
for our financial hist ry for the last forty
years, It hac been a history of extrava

country, followed by ruinous contractions,

importations of foreign goods, wild specu
lations, and ruinous ami demoralizing stock
gambling. When tbo crisis arrives, as
arrive it must, tbo banks cm extend no
relief to tho peoplo. In a vain struggle to
redeem their liabilities in speiio they are
compelled to contiact their loans and their
issues ; and at las1, in tho hour of distress,
when their assistance n most needed, they
and their debtors together biuk iiito uisol

It is this paper system of extravagant
expansion, rahin tho nominal prieo nf
every artielo far bovond its real valuo, whon
compared with tbo cost of similar articles
in countries whoso circnlation is wisely
regulated, which has prevented ub from
compctim in our own markets with foreigu
manufacturers, has produced extravagant
importations, and has counteracted tlio ct
feet of tho larrro incidental nrotcction af.
forded to our domcstio manufactures by
, tho present revenuo tariff. But for this
the branches of our manufactures composed
of raw materials, tlio production ot our
own country such as cotton.iron.and wool
en fabiioj would not only havo acquired
almost oxclusivo possession of tbo homo
marlsct, but would havo created for them
selves a foreign market throughout tho
worlu.
Deplorable, however, as may uo our
present Gnanci .1 couditiou, wo may yet iu
duleo in bright hopes for tho futuro. No
other nation lias ever oxisted, which could
havo endured such violent expansions and
, contractions ol paper croui's without last
ing injury: yet tho buoyancy uf youth, the
energies of our population, and tho fpirit
which never quails boforo difficulties, will
enable us soon to reoovcr from our present
financial embarrassment, and may even
1 occasion us speedily to iorgct tho lesson
wuicu thoy Iiavo taug!i&,
I In the meantime it is tho duty of tho
Government, by all proper means within its
coutinuo to discharge its liabilities to tho
peoplo iu goM and tilvcr. Its Uuburso-
mentsiuouin will pass into circulation,
and materially assist in restoring a sound
currency. From its high credit, should

against futuro suspensions, In 1S!!5, fin
effort was mado.by tho .Bank of England
toonrtail tbo jsu6s of Iho country' banks
under tho most favorable circumstnncos.
The paper currency had bcon expanded to
a ruinous extent, and tthe Hank put forth
all its power to contract it in order to re
duce prices nnd rcstoro tho equilibrium of
tho foreign exchanges, it accordingly
commoiiccd a system of curtailmcut of its
loans and Issues, iu the vaip hopo (hat Iho
joint stock and private banks ot the king

Hut Iho Bank of tlo United Statoi would
not, If 1 1 could, restrain tho issues nnd loans
of tli A Stale batiks, because duly as a regu
lator of thocurrcu y ntist often bo in direct
conflict with tho immediate intcro-t of its
stockholders If we expect ono agent to

must, at least, In somo degree, bo antago
nistic But tho directors of a Hank of iho
United States would feel the same interest
and tho same inclination with the directors
f 'ho Stato banks to expand tho currency,
to accommodate their favorites and friends
with loam, nnd to declare largo dividends,
Such has been our experience in regard to
the last batik.
After all, wo must mainly rely upon tho
patriotism and wisdom of the St tcs for
tho prevention and redress of the evil. If
they will offoid us a real spocio basis for
our paper circulation by increasing the
denomination of bank notes, first to twenty,
and afterwards to Ulty dollars ; U they
will require that the banks shall at all times
keep on hand at least one dollar of cold and
silver for every threo dollars of their clr:
cuhtLon and deposits; and if they will
provide by a sef-oxeeuting enactment,
which n thing o.in arrest, that the momcut
they suspend thpy sbajj go iuto liquidation,
wuuUl g) tar to secure us against tuturo
suspcusioi s of specie payments.
Congress, in my opinion, possess the
power to piSs a uniform bankrupt law ap
plicable to all banking institutions through
out tho United States, and I strongly
recommend its exercise. iliis woulu
mike it tho irreversible orcanio law of
each bank's existence, tint a suspension of
spcio payment! shall prouuee its civil
death. I ho instinct of self-preservation
would then compel it to perform its duties
in such a manner as to escape tbo penalty
and preserve its life.
The cxistO''ce of banks and the circula
tion of bank paper are so idcntiGcd with
tho habits of our poorjle, that they cannot
at this day be suddenly abolished wi bout
much immediate injury to the country. If
wo could c niCne them to th ir apprnpriato

But this I say, utter Ion aod much re

impossible to enjoy tho fucil tics which

at Iho satno timo suuering tlio calamities
which the crosses of tho Cauks havo hith
