Hence, when there are extravagant sod wasteful appropriations, there, mutt be a corresponding increase of tales i and the people becoming awak ened, will necessarily scrutinize the character of measures, which thus in crease their burdens. Br the watch ful eje of self interest, the Hgents of the people in the State Governments are repressed, and kept within the limits of a just economy. But if the necessity of levying the taxes be taken from these who make the appropriations, and thrown upon a more distant nd less responsible set of public wgents, who have power to approach ine people j an inaireci hdh sieauny j taxation, ttere is reason to fear that j prodigality will soon supercede those I characterises which have thus far

If we consider the protective ' duties, which are, in a great degree, the source of the surplu revenue, beneficial to on- tection of the Union and prrj iJicial t another, there is no correclive far the evil in such n plan of distribution. O 1 ths contr iry. there'll reason to fear that all the romphint which luve sprung from this ciuse would be aggravated. Kv ery one mini be sensible that a distri bulion of the surplus must beget a disposition to cherish the means which create it; and nny ryMem, therefore, into which it enters, must have a powerful tendency to increase ' rather than diminish the tariff.

There would be no surplus to cramp and lessen the resources of individual wealth and enterprise, and the bunks' would be left lo their ordinary means. Whatever agitations and fluctuations might arise from our unfortunate paper system, they could never be attributed, jastly or unjutly, to the action of the Federal Government. There would be tome guaranty that the spirit of wild speculation, which seeks to convert the surplus revenue Into banking capital, would be effectually checked, and that the scenes of demoralizttton which are now so prevalent through the laud would disappear'.

It was an alternative for what were ! deemed greater evils a temporary j resort to relieve an over burdened ; treasury, uniu me uovernment could, ; without a sudden and destructive ! convulsion in the business of the country, gradually return to the just power not granted by that instrument, am! it was from a conviction that the power to distribute even a temporary 'surplus of revenue is of thai character. that it was sugue-lcd only in connex ion w tth an appeal to the source all leal power in the General (i.v ernment, the States which have established it. No such appeal ha been tak.::, and, in my opinion, a distribu. lion of tlj surplus revenue by Con ere?t.nther lo the Si ites or the neo pie, is be considered as amon-c lb' crtn ineed that no Hlteration of the constiiutian in lh;s respect ii wie or contraction, il actuations in t! pi ice 01 properly, rash spetulati ui, iJIen eM, evtrav.tg nice, an I a dt-feri r 1tinn oi morals, have taught u- tlie ifiipor t a nt lesson, Ihtt any Ir nisi r.t ml--chi-f that may attend tiie reduc.i a ol our revenue to the wants of our ( jvernment is lo be born in preference to an ovtnlv.ving Treaun.

I he debts ol the revo lution were funded, at prices which formed no equivalent, compared with the nominal amount of the stock, and under circumstances which exposed the motives of some of those who participated in the passage of the act, to distrust. The facts that the value of the stock was greatly enhanced by the creation of the bank, that it was well understood that such would be the case, and that some of the advocates of the measure were largely benefited by it, belong to the history of the times, and arc well calculated to dimiuish, i respect which might otherwise Htti.ll nun t f I ft A BrriArt ft v n o have. bet. uue to the action ot the Congrev wh'ch created the institution. On the estw bushment of n national hank, it became the interest of its creditors that gold tlould be super

ceded by the paper ef the bank as

A value was soon attached to the gold coins, whichmade their exportation to foreign countries as a mercantile commodity, more pro. fitable thv.i their retention and use at home as ttvoney. It followed as a matter of course, if not designed by those who established the bank, that the bank became, in effect, a substi. lute fr the mint of the United Slates.

It is then perceived that the enhancement of the price of land und labor produces a corresponding increase in the price of products, until these products do not sustain a competition wilh similar ones in other countries, nnd thus both manufactured and agricultural productions cease to bear exportation from the country of the spurious currency, because they cannot be sold for cost. This is the process by which specie is banished bv the paper of the banks. Their vaults are soon exhausted to pay for foreign commodities; the next step is a stoppage of the specie paymeDt a total degredation of paper as a currencyunusual depressions of prices, the ruin of debtors, and the accumulation of property in the hands of creditors, and cautious capitalists. I It was in view of these evils, togeth-

ajer with the dangerous power wielded

by the Bank of the United State?, and Hs repugnance to our constitution, that 1 was induced to exert the power conferred upon me by the American people to prevent the continuance of that institution. But although various dangers.to our republican insti. tuthns have been obviated by the fail, ure of that bank to extort from the Government a renewal of its charter, it is obvious that little has been accomplished except a salutary change of public opinion, towards restoring to me country the sound currency pro-1 vided for in the constitution. In the acts of several of the States, prohibiting the circulation of small notes, and the auxiliary ennet menu nf C.nnorfae at the last session, forbidding their reception or payment on j ublic account, ' the true policy of the country -ha i been advanced and a larger portion j ol the precious metals inlused into our u,lu,7"8 ....-i.u.... i net.; muas- i ures win prooaoiy oe followed nr, m due lime by Hie enactment of State laws, banishing from circulation hank notes of slill higher denominations; and the object may be mitrii illy promoted by further nets of Couyn.??, forbidding the employment, .-.s tiscal agents, of sucli b .tnks as con'.iiiue lo issue noles ;f low iltn iminations, and throw impediments in the way f the circulation of gold and silver. The effects of an cxtentiici of h inkcredits and over issues of b.-nk p-per. have been ttrikmiv illustrated in lle sales ol the puunc lands.

I wish to drop a few hints on your most common diseases of this country, and particularly on fever, as it has been the study of most I'hysiciana for the space of 2272 years nt which time it nppenrs to have been first spoken of by Doctor Ilippocrate, who is lo this day believed to have civen the best pathology. Hence the physicians of modern times, or of the dogmatic sect have at all times acknowledged him their leader. His opinions have been respected as oracles not only in the schools of medicine, but even in the courts of law; indeed the qualifications and duties ofa physician was never more fully exemplified than by his pen. tie admitted no one to his instruction without the solemnity of an oath that they would give the most religious attention to the advantages of the sick , and that they would not divulge any matter ofa secret nature, neither directly or indirectly. I discover that Doctor Hippocrate, has made mention of most diseases and nearly all medicines that has since been found

.although this was 460 years before Christ

arid he was the inventor, of medicines yet it appear as though it was handed to him from the Almighty heavenly Father; he also makes some remarks which have been comparatively, but very little improved since founded npon various Appearances in the state of the patient, but especially upon the secretions and executions circulating fluids &c. I am aware that I am addressing a much enlightened people who is too well acquainted with the particular diseases w hich I ana making mention of, but if I err it shall be an error vf the head and not of mc heart and lounued on many years practice say at), and 1 have never lost the first patient with fevei" in the course of my practice.
