I refer you to the report of the Secretary of the Treasury for a detailed statement of the finances. The total receipts into the Treasury, fur the per ending 30th of June last, were forty-seven million four hundred and twenty-one thousand seven hundred and forty-eight dollars and nine ty cents, -M47,494748 90.) The total expenditures during the same pe riod Were forty-three million two thousand one hundred and sixty-eight dollars and• ninety cent*, ($43,002,168 90.) The public, debt has been reduced, since the last annual 'report from the Treasury Depart ment, four handfed and ninety-five thousand two hundred and aerenty-aiz dollars and scree , trades meta, ($495,976711.) By the Ilith section of the act of 48th Jaw eery. 1847. the proceeds of the sales of the publio lauds were pledged for the rearrest and priacipal of the tfebt. The great amount ctf those lauds litheetipeady restroad sy Coas• woes for ailing biuuniee. will. it is believed, very needy supply es penile demand for **v eal years 10 *me t sal bet We reliance cui, therefore, he placed on that hitherto fruitful source of revenue. Aside from the permanent annual espendi sires, which have necessarily largely borate. ed, a portion of the public debt, amoupting to eight million seventy-five thousand nine hun dred and eighty-six dollars and fitly-nine dents ($8,075,986 594 must be provided fogirrithin the nett two fiscal years. It is most d tibia that these accruing demands should lett without *sorting to new kens. All experience has demonstrated the wisdom and policy' of raising a large portion of reve nue, for the support of Government from du ties on good. imported. The power to lay these duties is anquestionable, and its chief object, of pour*, is to replenish, the Vassar/. Bat if, In .4erkg this.itkinffifififel tfivlitgaffs may be gained by enoottraging the industry of out chases. kis °ex dotty to wraiLeneellielea of that advantage. A defy laid upon an *dale which cannot be modem* in this country— such as tea and oof i..adde to the cost of the article, and is chief ly or whollt paid by thootnsumer. But • duty laid emote an attiole which ma be produced hen, stimulates the skill sad Industry of our own wow, to produce the same article, which is breathe Into the market k competition with **foreign stiletto, and the importer fe thus compelled to redoes hitt price to that at which die domestic aide* °subs sold, thereby throw ing a part of the duly upon the product of the foteignextlide. The eondnuance of this pro ass emit**. skill, and barium the capital, Which finally enable al to produce theadiole much ehesper than it could have been procured from abroad, thereby bene fi ting both the ptedis air and the °mounter at home. The conse quence of this is, that the artisan, and the ag dcaittuist, are brought together, Nab affords • reedy market for the pro** of the other, the whole country become prosperous ; and the ability to produce every necessary of life renders us indopendent in war as well as in pasiest. A high tariff can never be permanent. It will cause dissatistaction and will be changed. It esoludes nompotition, end thereby invites the initestatebt-of timbal in neastrireteres to such an stew, that when chinged, it brings distress, bankruptcry x and ruin, upon all who have be en: misled by ha faithless protection. What the manufacturer wants, is uniformity, and peromuonoy. *rat be may Ilrel noontide:toe *athe is not to bs ruined by sudden changes. Bat to asks a tariff asifonn and permanent, it is not only Necessary that thelaw should not be altered, but that the duty should not fluctuate. To effect this, all duties should be specific, whideiver the mars of the article is each as to admit of it. Ad *donna dudes fluctuate with the price, and offer strong temp tations to fraud and perjury. Specific dudes, ' on the contrary.. are equal and uniform in all ports, and at all times, and offer a strong in ' *Moment to the importer to bring the best ar dirk, as he pays no more deity upon that, than upon one ofinferior quality. I therefore strong ly recommend a modification of the present tariff. which has prostrated some of our most importantand neoessary manufactures, and that specific duties be imposed sufficient to raise the. requisite revenue, making such discrimi nation in favor of the industrial pursuits of our own country as to encourage home production, without excluding foreign competition. It is also important that an unfortunate provision In the present tariff', which imposes a much high er duty upon the raw material that enters into our manufactures than upon the manufactured article, should be remedied. ' The papers accompanying Xi report of the Secretary of the Treasury will disclose frauds attempted upon the revenue, in variety and amount so great, as to justify the conclusion it is impossible,- under any system of ad valorem duties levied upon the foreign cost or value of the article, to secure an honest °beer ranee and effectual administration of the laws. The fraudulent devices to evade the law,which have been detected' by the vigilance of the ap praisers, leave no wont to doubt that similar impositions. not discovered. toe large amount, have been successfully practised since the en. Reticent of the law now in force. This state of things has already had a prejudicial influ ence upon those engaged in foreign comineroe. It has a tendency to drive the - honest trader from the business of importing, and to throw that important branch of employment into the hands of unscrupulous and dishonest men, who ars alike regardless of law and the obligations of an oath. By these means the plain inten tions of Congress, as expressed in the law, are daily defeated. Every motive of policy and duty, therefore. impel ins to ask the earnest at tendon of Congress to this subject. If Con gress should deem it unwise to attempt any important changes in the system of levying du ties at this emotion, it will become indispensa ble to the protection of the revenue, that such remedies, as in the judgment of Congress may mitigate the evils complained of, should lie at once applied. As before stated, specific duties would, in my opinion, afford the most perfect remedy fur this evil t but, if you should not concur to this view, then, as a partial remedy, I beg respect fully to recommend that, instead of taking the lavabo, of the sr abroad as • mania a •de- A 'sauteing ha value here, the SOMPOUWie of which invoice it is In many oases impossible to verify, the law be so changed as to metre a home valuation or apprise!, to he regulated in such manner as to give, as tier as practica ble, eallermlty in the several ports. There behag no mint in California, I am in fotmed that the laborers at the mines are emu - pelted to d is pose of their gold dust at .a large discount- , TitiO "Mere to • me to be a heavy and unjust tix upon the labor of those employ ed in ettireadng this' linclotie metal; and doubt notffinewill be'disposed, at the earliest period possiblei•to relieve them of it by the es tablishmeat of a mint. In the mien time, as an assayer's *eke I. established there, I would respectfully submit to your consideration the propriety of authorising gold bullion, which has been assayed and stamped, to be received I,in payment of Government does. I cannot conceive that the watery would suffer any kras by Bosh a provide's, which will at once raise bullion to its par vulva-sad thereby save (if I em rightly intimated) many millions of dollars to the taborets, which' ere now paid in brokerage to convert this precious metal into avails* !unde r This discount upop their bard sensing* is a beery ax, and every effort shoa!d be made by the Government to relieve them' from so great a burden. ' • More then three-foulthe of our population am engaged in the cultivation• of the soil. Thal commercial, raannitetering, and navigating In. tercets are all, to a vest **teats dependent on the agricoltoral. It, is, therefore, the Moethn• portant interest of the nation, and Lup • jest claim to the fostering ears and protection of the Government, so far se they can be extended consistently with the provisions of the consti tution. As this cannot be done by the' ordine ry modes of legislation, I respectfully -mote -1 mend the establishment of an Agricultural Hu-i rma, to be charged with the duty of giving to this leading branch of American industry the encouragement which it so well deserves. In, view of the immense mineral resources of Our country, provision should also be made for the' employment of a competent mineralogist and' chemist, who should be requited, under the di rection of the head of the bureau,to collect specimens of the various minerals f our coun try, and to ascertain, by careful analysis, their respective elements and properties, and their adaptation to useful purposes. He should also I be required to examine and report upon the qualities of d iffe rent soils and the manures best calculated to improve their productiveness.— By publishing the results of such experiments, with suitable explanations, and by the collec tion and distribution of rare seeds and plants, with instructions as to the best system of cut tivasicre, much may be done to promote this great national interest. In compliance with the act of Congress, passed on the 93d of May, 1950, providing, among other things, for taking the seventh cen sus, a soperinteadent was appointed, and all other measures adopted which were deemed ne tottery to ensure the prompt and faithful per formacce of that duty. The appropriation al ready made will, it is believed, be sufficient to defray the whole expense of the work i but further legislation may be necessary in regard to the cempensaden of seine of the marshals of the Territories. It will oleo be proper to make provision by law, at an early day, for the publication of such abstracts of the returns as the public interests may require. The unprecedented growth of ourTerritorios On the Pacific in wealth and population. and ;dle consequent helium of UN* social and sommerehil relations with 'be 'Odeon States, seem io rend* it the dety of the Oovernment lo em all its ounatitedenal pow* to -improve she memo of homeroom with this. The im portance of opening "a line otemmuttleation, the ban and most expeditious of which the of the coutz , will admit," between the valley of the M appi sad the Palle, was brought to year nodes by my predecessor, in his annual mosents; sad as the reasons which ha presented in- Divot of the Mowers atill.esist la Sill throe, I: beg leave to call poor Mandan to them. and to repeat the reeommendations -thee esedeby hint. The n 00.044411 which exists in regard to the valfility.othied titles in California Is a sub ject which thaninds your early consideration. Large bodies °fluid in that State ere claimed coder Vests Said to have been Mirk by au therity of the Spanish and Mexican' Govern mints. Many of these have not been perfect ed, others have been revoked, and some are be lieved to be fiundulent. But until they-shall have been jutilikally investigated, they will continue to retard 'the settlement and impious mentofthe country. I, therefore, respectfully recommend' that provision be made by law, for the appointment of conintlashiners to ex amine all such claims with a view td their fin al adjustment. I aleo beg leave to call yor attention to the propriety of extending, sa an early day, our sys tem of land laws, with such modifications as ma 7 be m'eniaryi over the State of California ana the territories of Utah and New Mexico. The mineral lands, of inure., form an amp-' don to any genenti system which may be adOpted. Fatima methods of disposing of them have been suggested. I was at first is• alined to favor the system of leasing. as it seem- ed to promise the largest revenue to the Govern- 1 Govern ment and to afford the best security against monopolies ; bet further reflection, and our ex perience in leasing the lied mines and selling lands upon credit, have brought my mind to , the conclusion tbst there would be great difll.l catty In collecting the rents, and that the re. ' lotion of debtor and creditor, between the citi zens and the Government. would be attended with many mischievous consequences. I therefore recommend that, instead of retaining the mineral lands under the permanent control of the Government, they be divided into small parcels and sold, ander such restrictions, es to quantity and time as will insure the best pries, and guard mom effectually against combinations of capitalists to obtain monopolies. The aunexatioo of Texas and the acquisition of California and New Notice havegiven in creased importance to our Indian relations. The various tribes brought under our jurisdic tion by these enlargements of our boundaries me estimated to embrace a population of one hundred and twenty-four thousand. Texas and New Mexico are surrounded by powerful tribes of Indias. who are a source of constant terror and and an °yams to the inhab itants. Separating into II predatory bands, l i and always mounted, they overrun the country, devastating hirms,destroyingeraps, driving off whole herds of cattle, and occasionally mur dering the Inhabitants or carrying them into captivity. The great roads leading into the country are infested with them, whereby trav eling is rendered extremely dangerous. and im migration Melanin entirely arrestrhe Mex ican frontier, which; by the I Ithillaffile of the treaty of Gusdaloo pe Hidalgo, we ale bound to protect against the Indiana within our bor der, iti exposed to these incursions equally with our own. The military force stationed in that country (although forming a large . proportion of the army) is represented as entirely inade quate to our own protection and the fulfilment of our treaty stipulations with Mexico. The principal deficiency is in cavalry, and I recom mend that Congress should, at as early a mutat as practicable, provide for the raising of one or more regiments of mounted men. For further suggestions on this subject. and others connected with our domestic interests, end the defence of on. frontier, 1 refer you to the report of the Secretary of the Interior and of the Secretary of War. 1 commend also to your favorable considera tion the suggestion contained in the last men tioned report. and-in the letter of the general-in chief, relative to the establushment H of an asy lum for the relief of disabled and destitute sol diers. This subject appeals so strongly to your sympathies that it would be superfluous in me to my any thing more, than barely to ex press my cordial approbation of the proposed object. The navy continues to give protection to oar commerce and other national interests in the, I different quarters of the globe. and, with the exception of a single steamer on the Northern lakes, the vessels in commission are distribu ted in six different squadrons. The report of the head of that Department will exhibit the services of these squadrons, and of the mend vessels employed in each , during the pest year. It is a source of pada , cation that. while they have been constantly prepared for any hottlie emergency, they have every where met with the respect and courtesy, I due as well to the dignity as to the peaceful dispositions and Jost purposes of the nation. 1 The two brigantines accepted by the Govern -1 moot from a generous Milieu of New York. and placed oboist the command of an officer of the navy, to proceed to the Arctic seas in quest of th e British commander, Sir - John Franklin, and Ms companions, In compliance with the act of emigre's, approved in May last, bad. 1 whoa lut. heard from. penetrated. into a high' uorthern latitude bet the success of this noble and humane enterprise is yet uncertain.

A revision of the code for the government of the navy seems t• require the immediate could*. ration of Congrees. lte system of crimes and pun ishments had undergone no change for half a cen tury, until the lut session, though its ilefeets have been often and ably pointed out, and the abolition of a particular species of corporal punishment, which then took placer, without providing any substitute, has left the service in a state of dafec• times., which calls for prompt correction. I therefore recommend that the whole subject be revised without delay, and such e system estab lished kr the eadbreenset of discipline, as shall at and be Weems And efts o t '' ' aecom ?he peziying . , of the f oat:muter Galtatai Preterite a satiseetori view of -tho opera• tionaand coodidoe of th at DePartment At Gera* der ampt ,- last fistslivar, tie length e( thelalend mail peels is.dhaslill Stan* (not alane balisialf ibtillikvinv An Onion nod California) was 1711.632 milli I , -the emieal tralispertatiog thereon 46,541,423 miles; and the annual cost of inch transportation $2,794,426. 'llis increase of the annual transportation over that of the preceding year, was 3,997,364 miles, and the increase in cast was $342,440. The number of Post dices hi the U. States on tbe first day of July lastores 15,417.-being an liitutie of 11,670 druids thetpreceding year. • The grog remises of the Department for the lineal year endlog Joey 50th, 11160, amounted to $5,652,971 48, including the annual appropriation of $200,000 Sit the franked tester of the depart. meats, and sueloding the foreign pastern collec ted for end peyable to the British Government. The expenditures for the same period were $6,- 212,953 43—leaving a balance of revenue over expenditure of $340,018 03. I am happy to find that the fiscal coalition of the Department Is such as to justify the Postmas ter General in recommending the reduction elver inland letter postage to three cents the single let ter when prepaid. and five coots when ant prepaid. He also recommends that the prepaid rate shall be reduced to two cents whenever the revenues of the Demurest, alter the reduction, shall *geoid its expenditures by more than five per Met. for I two calamities years j that the postage ripen California sad other letters sent by our ocean steamers shall be much reduced; and that the rates of postage on newspapers, pamphlets, peril. odicals, and other printed matter, shall be moth lied, and some reduction thereon made. It cannot be doubted that the proposed redue• Lions will, for the present, diminish the revenues of the Department. It is believed that the del ciescy, after the surplus already accumulated shall be exhausted, may be almost wholly met, either by abolishing 'the existing privileges of sending free matter !though the mails. or by paying out of the Treasury to the Poet °Mee Department a sum equivalent to the postage of which it is de pnved by such privileges. The last is supposed to be the preferable mode, and will, if not entirely, so nearly supply that deficiency as to make any further appropriation that may be found necessary so inconsiderable ail to form no obstacle to the proposed reductions. I estertain so doubt of the authority of Con rem to make appropriations for leading objects in that class of public work. comprising what are usually called works of internal improvement.— This authority I suppose to be derived chiefly from the power of regulating commerce with for. sign nations and among the States, and the power of laying and collecting imposts. Where corn snore* is to be carted on, end impost, collected, there must be ports and harbors, as well as wharves and custosnlousen if ships, laden with valuable cargoes, approach the shore, or rail along the coast, En-houses are necessary at suitable points for the protection of life and property. Other fa eilities and securities for commerce and navies -1 tion are hardly less important ; and those clauses of the Constitution, therefore, to which I have re. ferred, have received from the origin of the Gov. ernanent a liberal and beneficial construction.— Not only have light-houses, buoys, and beacons been established, and floating lights maintained, but harbors have been cleared and improved, piers constructed, and even breakwaters for the safety of shipping, and sea walls to protect harbors from being filled up, and rendered useless. by the action of the ocean, have been erected at very great ex pease. And this construction of the Constitution l appeers the more reasonable from the considera tion, that if these works, of such evident impor lance and utility, are not to be accomplished by Conjoin, they cannot be accomplished at all.— By the adoption of the Constitution the several States voluntarily parted with the power of toilet.. ting duties of impost in their own ports; and it ; is not to be expected that they should raise tr.on• ley, by internal taxation, direct or indirect, for the t benefit of that commerce, the revenues derived from which do not, either in whole or in pert, go into their own treasuries. Nor do I perceive any difference between the power of Congress to make 1 appropriations for objects of this kind on the ocean. ; and the power to make appropriations for similar objects on lake* and riven, eirtbereser they are large enough to bear on their waters au extensive traffic. The magnificent Mississippi and its wits ovaries, and the vast lakes of the north and the ' northwest, appear to me to fall within the exer else of the power, as jowly and as clearly as the 1 Ocean and the Gull of Mexico. It is a mistake to regard expenditures judiciously made for these objects sis expenditures for local purposes. The position, or site of the work, is necessarily local; but its utility is general. A ship canal around the falls of St. Mary, of lea than a mile in Length, though local in its construction, would yet be no tional in its purpose and ha benefits, as it would remove the only obstruction to a navigation of more than a thousand miles, affecting several States, as well as oar commercial relation, with Canada. So, too, the Breakwater, at the mouth of the Delaware, is erected, not for the exclusive benefit of the States bordering on the bay and river of that name, bet for that of the whole coastwise navigation of the United States, and, to a consist. enable extent also, of foreign commerce. If a ship be lan on the bar at the entrant of a south ern port for want of a sonicient depth of water, it is very likely to be a northern ship, and it • pen steamboat be sunk in any of the Mississippi, on octant of its channel not having been property cleared of obstructions, it may be a boit belong. ing to eider of eight or ten States. I may add, at, somewhat remarkable, that among all the thir ty•one States, there is name that is not, to a rosin or leas extent, boionded on the ocean, or the Gulf of Mexico, or see of the grind lakes, or same nave igithle river. In fulfilling nor :constitutional duties, fellow citizens, on this subject, as is carrying into 'fleet all other powers emery's' by the Constitution, we should consider ourselves as deliberating and acting for one and the earn* country, and bear constantly in mind, that our regard and our duty &redo*, not to a particular part only, but to the whole. I therefore recommend that appropriations be made for completing suits worts as ban been al. ready begun, and for commenting ouch others as may seem to the wisdom of to hoof pub• lie and general importance. The difliCulties and delays, incident to the set tlement of private claims by Congress, amount in many team to • denial of jostle& There is rm• son to apprehend that many unfortunate creditors of the Government have thereby been unavoidably ruined. Congress has se much business of a pub. lie character, that it is impeseible it should give much attention to some Private claims, and their accumulation is now so groat that many claim ants muitArtipeir of ever being able to obtain a besting. It may well be doubted whether Con gress, from the Raton/of its orgiutisatitan, is pro• perly coestituted to deckle upon such eases. It Is imPoselbli that each member should examine the **rite at my, On which be W compel led to' Mkt ; and it Is preposterous to aka judge to decide a taw which he has never beard.

I bet' leave, therefore, most impeetfolly, to recommend that provision be Mid, by law'for the appointment of a corm miasloa to settle all private claims against the United, States; rod, se an es pane hearing must in all untested eases be very unsetisfaetory, I al. so recommend the appointment of a Solicitor, whoa, duty it 'ball be to represent the .Govere• meat before such commission, and protect it against all illegal, fraudulent or unjust claims, which may be presented for their adjudication. This District, which has neither voice nor' vote in your deliberations, looks to you for protection and aid, and I commend all its wants to your fa. sombre consideration, with a full confidence that you will meet them not only with justice, but with liberality. It should be borne in mind that in this city, laid out by Washington, and eons,. crated by his name, is located the Capitol of our nation, the emblem of our Union, and the symbol of our greatness. Here also are situated all the public buildings necessary for the use of the Gov. emment, and all these are exempt from taxation. It should be the pride of Americans to render this place attractive to the people of the whole Repub lic, and convenient and sale for the transaction of the public business and the preservation of the public records. The Government should, there• fore, bear a liberal proportion of the burdens of all necessary and useful improvements. And, as nothing could contribute more to the health, corn.' fort, and safety of the city, and Die security of the ' public buildings and records, tban an abandon) simply of pure water, I respectfully rekomidend 'thee you make such provlbloni figr ebtsinisg the some $$ in, your wisdom you may': deem liirsPer- The sot passed at your lost ilinelou, Making tortulatiropositions to Texastegseigling thisAllw pplfid boundary between that Step aid the Terri tory of .

I believe they were'heeeriey to allay asperities and animosities that were rapidly sting one section of the country from another, and destroyiag those fraternal sentiments which are, the strongest supports of the. Constitution. They were adopted in the spirit of conciliation, and for the purpose of conciliation. I believe that a great majority of our tallow-eitisens sympathize in that spirit, and that purpose, and in the mein' approve, and are prepared, is all respeets, to sue, tain these enactments. I cannot doubt that the American polite, bound together by kindred blood and common traditions, still cherish a ,panenotutt regard for the 'Union of their Where; and that they are ready to rebuke any attempt to violate its integrity, or to disturb the Mmpromies on which it is based, or to resist the laws which have been enacted uoder its authority. The serum of measures to which I have Minded are spaded by me as • settlement, is principle and substance—a Anal settlenmut, of the danger ous and exciting *objects which they embraced. Most of these subjects, indeed, em beyondyour reach, as the legislation which disposed of them wee, in its character, final and irrevocable. It may be presumed from the opposition which they all encountered that none of these measures was free from imperfections, but in their mutual dee pendent* and connexion they formed • system of compromise, the most colleiliatory, and beet for the satire country, that could be obtained from conflicting sectional interests and opinions. For this reason I recommend your adbetenee to the adjustment established by those measures, un til time and experience shall demonstrate the ne cessity of further legislation to guard against eva sion or abuse. By that adiussmint we have been rescued from the wide and boundless vitiation that surrounded us, and haws firm, distinct and legal round to reef upon. And the occasion, 1 trust, will justify ma in exhorting my countrymen to rally upon and maintain that ground as the best, if not the only means, of restoring peace aml quiet to the country, and maintaining invlolain the integrity of the Union. And now, fellow-citizens, I cannot bring this communication to a clone without invoking you to join me in humble and devout thanks to the Great Ruler of nations, for the multiplied bless. ings which He bas graciously bestowed upon us. His hand, so often visible in our preservation, has stayed the pestilence, seud us horn foreign wars and domestic disturbances, and Buttoned plenty throughout the land. Our liberties, religious and civil, have been maintained ; the fountains of knowledge have all been kept open, and means of happiness widely spread and generally enjoyed, greater than have fallen to the lot of any other nation. And. while deeply penetrated with gratitude for the past, let us hope that his all•wlee Pravideoos will so guide our counsels, as that they shall result .in satisfaction to our constituents, securing the peace of the country, and adding new strength to the united Government ender which we live.

Carolina on Friday last indicate that quite a disunion spirit is abroad among the mem bers. One resolution under consideration declares the determination of the Legisla lature not to fill the vacancy by the end] of Mr. Calhoun ; instructs Senator Butler, end requests the Representatives in Con gress not to take their seats at the pre sent session. We observe, however, that two of the Representatives (Messrs. Burt and Holmes) are in their seats. Another long preamble and series of Resolutions detail all the various grievan ces, approves of the assembling of a South ern Cortgresa, appoints the first Monday of next July as the time, and Montgomery, Alabama, as the place, and provides for the calling of • State Convention to elect Delegates to said Congress.

This statement nisi. seem alinost incredible, when it is considered that six. eight or ten months are required to tan leather by the ordinary process. Mr. Ellsworth has in his possession a pair of boots and a pair of shoes made from a raw hide in less than a i day and a half tanned by this new process. The leather is tanned by a ctimpound of chem icals, and in tune and matertals is a saving of at least five thousand per cent., over the present slow method of making leather. The right. says the Journal, for Con necticut and Massaebusetui was sold for 8600.000 ; Ohio for $1150,000; Michigan Ihr 111.4),000. This is Undoubtedly coos of the realest improvements of the age.
