just the difficulties between them have

heretofore proved unsuccessful; and there remains no probability that this desirable object can be accomplished without the aid of further legislation by Congress. I will,

at an early period of your session, present the subject for your consideration, accompanied with an exposition of tbe complaints and claims of the several parties into which the nation is divided, with a view to the adoption of such measures by Congress as may enable the executive to do justice to

them respectively, and to put an end, if

possible, to the dissentions which have have long prevailed, and still prevail among tham. I refer you to the report of the Secretary of the Navy for the present condition of that branch of the national defence: and

partment should sustain itself by limit ing its expenditures to its income. Congress has never 83Ught to make it a source of revenue for general purposes, except for a short period during the last wr with

Great Britain, nor should it ever, become a charge on the general treasury. If Congress shall adhere to this principle, as I think they ought, it will be necessary either to curtail the present mail service, so is to reduce the expenditures, or so to modify tbe act of ths third of Much last as to

improve its revenues. The extension 1. f

1 he mail service, and the additional facilities which will be demanded by the rapid extension and increase of population on cur western frontier, will not admit of such ourtailment as will materially reduce the present expenditures. In the adjustment

this description than ours, or can promise itself greater advantages fiom their em

ployment. They are admirably adapted

lo the protection of our commerce, to the

rapid transmission of intelligence, and to the coast defence. In pursuance of the

wise policy ot a gradual increase of our

navy, large supplies of live oak limber, and other materials for ship building, have

been collected, and are now under shelter and in a slate of good preservation, while

iron steamer9 can be built with great facility in various parts of the Union.

The use of iron as a material, especially

in the construction of steamers, which can enter with safety many of the haibors along our coast now inaccessible to vessels of greater draught, and the practicability of constructing them in the interiot, strongly recommends that liberal appropriations should be made for this important object. Whatever may have been our policy in the earlier stages of the government, when the nation was in its infancy, our shipping

the connexion which now exists between the State Department and the Patent Office, may with great propriety and advantage, be transferred to the Attorney General. In his last annual message to ConTees.

.wr. .Uadison invited particular attention 1 to a proper provision for the Attorney (Jen- j

era:,as an "unportani improvement in the j executive establishment.' This recona-1

men;iation,was repeated by soini of his successors. The official duties of the At- I torney General have been mu :h increased within a few years, and his office has beco ne one of great importance. Mis duties may be still further increased with advantage to the public interests. As in executive officer, his residence and constant attention al the seat of government are required. Legul questions, involving impor

tant principles and large amounts of pnblic money, are constanly referred to him by tho President and exueutive departments, fjr his examination and decsision. The public business, unJer his official man

agement before the judiciary, has been so! augmented by the extension of our territory and the acts of Congress authorizing 6uits against the United States for large bodies of valuable public lands, as greatly to in crease bis labors and responsibilities. I therefore recommend that tbo Attorney General be placed on the same footing with the head of the other exectuive department", with such subordinate officers, provided by law for his department, as may be required lo discharge the additional duties which have been or may be devolved upon him. Congress possess the power of exclusive legislation over the District of Golmbia.

The exhibition of this military force among the Indian tribes in these distant rgions, and the councils held with them by the commanders of the expeditions, it is believer!, will have a salutary influence in restraining them from hostilities among themselves, and maintaining friendly relationsbetwcen

now engaged in third expedition; but it is not expected lhat this arduous servica will be completed in season to enable me to comnuuicate the result to Congress at the present session. Our relations with the Indian tribes are of a favorable character. The policy of removing them to a country designed for their permanent residence, wet of the Mississippi, and without the limits of the organized States and Territories, is better appreciated by them than it was a few years ago; while education is now attended to, and the habits of civilized life are gaining ground among them. Serious difficulties of long standing con -tinue to distract the several parlies into htch the Cberokees are unhappily divi"

greatly expanded. Neither our commerce,

nor our long line of coast on the ocean and on the lakes, can be successfully defended against foreign aggression by means of fortifications alone. These are essen

tial al important commercial and military points, but our chief reliance for this ob- j ject must be on a well organized, efficient ! navy. The benefits resulting from such a navy are not confined tothe Atlantic States. The productions of the interior which seek

a market abroad, are directly dependent on the safety and freedom of our commerce. The occupation of the Dalize below New Orleans by a hostile force would embarrass, if not stagnate, the whole export trade of the Mississippi, and affect the value of the agricultural products of the entire valley of that mighty river and its tributaries. It has never been our policy to maintain large standing armies in time of peace. They are contrary to the genius of our free institutions, would impose heavy bur

dens on tbe people, and b3 dangerous to

public liberty. Our reliance for norteciion

and defence on the land must be mainly on our citizens soldiers, who will be ever ready, as they ever have been ready in times past, t rush with alacrity at the call of their country to her defence, This description of fotce, howcv er, cannot .defend our coast, harbors, and inland seas, nor protect our commerce on the ocean or the lakes. These must bo protected by our navy. Considering on increased naval force, and especially of stam vessels corresponding with our growth and importance as a nation, and proportioned to the increased and increasing naval power of other nations, nf vast importance as regards our safety and the great and growing interest to be protected by it, I recommend tha subject to the favorable consideration of Congress. The report of the Postmaster General herewith communicated contains a detailed statement of the operations of his department during tbe past year .It will be seen that tho income'from postages will fall short of the expenditures for the year between one and two millions of dollars. This deficiency has been caused by the reduction of the rates of postage, which was made by the act of tbo third of March last. No principle has been more generally acquiesced in by the people than tbat this dc-

1 he people of this District have no legislative body of their own, and must conride their local, as well as their gweral interests, to Rrepresentatives in whose election they have no voice, and over whose official conduct they have no control. Each member of the National Legislature sliould consider himself as their immediate Repre

sentative, and should be t'sc more ready i to give attention to their interests and j wants, because he is not responsible to1

them. I recommend that liberal and generous spirit may characterize your measures in relation to them. I shall be ever disposed to show a proper regard for their wishes, and within constitutional limits, shall at all times cheerfully co-operate with you for the advancement of their welfare. I trust it may not bo deemed inapprpriate to the occasion for me to djvell for a moment on the memory of the most eminent citizen of our country, who, during the summer that is gone by, has descended tothe tomb.

I was attacked in the y. ar 1839 with a scrofulous affection on my upper lip, and continuing upward taking hold of my nose and surrounding parts, until the passage for conveying tears from the tyeto the nostril were destroyed, which caused an unceasing flowoftears. It also effected my gums, causing a discharge very unpleasant, and my teeth became so loose that it would not have been a hard tak to pull them out with a slight je rk-such were my feelings at this time that I was rendered perfectly miserable. 1 consulted the first Phrsieian in th-city, but with little benefit. Every thing' I heard of was tried, but all proved of no service, and as a last resort was recommended change of air; hot this, like other remedies did no good; the disease continued gradually to increase until my whole bodv was affected. But thanks to humanity, my Physician recommended your preparatien of Sarsaparilla. I procured from your agent citv, Dr! Jas. A.
