Sinceyour last adjournment, Alexander Mjl/aol, a British subject, who was indicted "for the murder of ait American citizen.ana who* c*a« ha* beea thesubject of a correspendenee heretofore comTtauicatei to you, has been acq ante by the verdict of an imjariial aai intelligent jury. and has, nhier the ju tgeanai of the Cana, been regularly discharged.

This G.ivernmsnt by our institutions, is charged with the maintenance of peaco and tiie preservation of amicable relations with the natioits of the earth, and ought to pmaass, with iat. (jnestioa,. all the reasonable and Wopar mians of rfiiinuinmg the one and praservinz fte other. WnUt just confident)* is felt in the Mtittaty of jhe States, yet thts

Govsrnoteat ought to be eompetent in itself for ths fWIlM*«t «f the high duti#whiclt have been devolved upon it under the ornate law, by the Suites thaw-

I* tfee month of September, a party of armed nun Irom Upper Canada invaded the territory of the United States, and forcibly seised upon the person of oneGrogan, and, under circumitances'ol gfeat harshness, hurrisdly oarried him beyond the Umits ol tho United flutes, and dsttvarad him up to the authorities of upper Canada. His immidiaw discharge was ordered by time authorised, upon the facts of the case being brought to their knowiedgt—i ooursa af procure wltioh was to have been expected from a nation with whom we are at peace, and which was not more due i: to the rights of tne United States, than to its own rori gard for justice. The correspondence whitdi passod bstween the Department of State, and the British Envoy, *i Mr. Fox, and with the Governor of Varmint, as eiion at the facts had been rrttde known to this 0 ^pirtment, are berawith oommtinicatcd.

I regret that it is not in my power to mike known ,r to yon an equally sitisfactory conclusion in the case oi the Caroline swamir, with the circumstances connecuKi with the destruction of which. In Ojcember. l*3T, by an armed force fit ltd out in thi Province of

Upair Canada, you are already mtdeatuju unted. N wen attonemsnt as was due for the pualic wrong done to the United States by this invasion of her territory, so wholly irreconsilable with her rights as an indapenp. dent power, hit yet bam nude. In th» view taken by thts Govern man t, the enquiry whether the veasjl was In the employment of those who were prosecuting an unauthorissd war against that Province, or was engaged by the owner in the bustnm of transporting passengers to and from Navy Island in bopsa of private nin. which was probably the caw, in no degree alwi* tne real question at issue between the two «pvern inta.

This Goyernakent never conoeded to any foreign arnmeat the power, exoa.it in a case of them Mt nrgant and extreme neosmty, of invading ita territory, either to arrest the persons or destroy the property of thos* who may have violate! the municipal l*ws «f aaoh foreign Government, or hive disragtrded their oblrgaHons arising udder tha laws of oatfons. Thetemtory of the United States mist bi regarded as storeJlr se* ours against all such invasions, until they stall volnatarily acknowledge th«r in\SiUty to ae|urt the nwives of their duties (o others. And in announcing this sentiment, do bat afflrm a principle which.no nation oa earth would be more ready to vindicate, at all luitrds, than ths people and GiTarument of Great pritam.

If, upon a full inveetijrttion of all the facta, it s"wl] appear thai the owner of tho Caroline was gowned by a hostile Intent, or hii mvlo oomtaia ciasj with taoos who were is the oooupaaey of Navy Waod.theo so fiir as he is concerned, there can be no claim to in* s' demnity for the dsstroettonW his boat, Which the ivernment would feet itself bound to prosecute —sinc^e & would havs acted not only in derogation of the nipts of Gmt Britain, but in clear violation ol th* laws of tho United States bat this is a quution w'ticH, »w-

In itnp »ing duties, however, ioc the purpjass of revenue, a right to discriminate a3 to the articles on which the duty shall ba laid, an- w«U as the amount, necessarily and most properly exists. Ofhirwi^a the Government would be placed ia iho condition of having to levy the same duties-uppn all the articles, the productive as well as the unproductive. The slightest fluty upon some, might have theefFfct of causing their imitation to ceass, whereas others eatermj extensively into the consumption ofthooountry, might bear ihe heaviest, without any sensible diminution in the amount imported. So also the C^vernment may be just in so discriminating, by reference to other, considerations of dom sstic ilicy connected with our manufactures. Stj long as the duties shall be laid with dietinct reference to the wants of the Treasury, no wellfounded objection in exist against them. It might be esteemed desirable that no saeh augmentation of tha taxes should take place as would have tbeeffnet ofannimmg the land proceeds diatributioor act of -the last seMion, which act is declared to be inoperative the m«te ment the duties are increased beyond 20 per cent, the miximum rate established by tha Compromise act.— Some of the provisions of the Compromise act, which will go into effect on the 30th-day "of June next, may, however, bo found exceedingly inconvenient in practice under any regulations tHpt^Congtess ma? adopt.

if a fear be indulged, that .Government may he tnmpU ed to ran into excess in Us issues, at any- future day, it seem* to me that no such apprehension can reasonably he entertained, until confidence in the repreaenm* live* of the States and of the people, as well as of the people themselves shall be lost. The weightiest considerations of policy require that, tho restraints now

iroposed to be tlirown around the measure, should not, fight caqses, be removed. To argue against any proposed plan, its liability to possible abuse, is to rejeot every expedient, since every tning dependent on human action, rs I iahle to abusal Fifteen millions of Treasurv notes may be iseued as ihe maximum, bui a discretionary power is to b* given lo the Board of Control untjer that sum, and every consideration will unite in leading them to fuel their way with caution. For the first eight years of the existence of th& late Bank of the United States, its circulation barely exceeded $4,000,000 and for five of its most prosperous years, it 'was about eqnal to sixteen millions furthermore, thfc authority given to receive private deposits to a limited amount, and to issue certificates in sutli sums as may be called for by the depositors, may so far fill up the channels of circulation as greatly to diminish the any coijv siderable tssne of Treasury notes. A restraint upon the amount of private deposits, has sMmed to be Indispensably necessary, from an apprehension thought to be well founded, that inran emergency of trade, confidence might be so far shaken in the banks, ss to induce a withdrawal from them of private deposits, with a view to ensure tlieir-unquestionable safety when deposited with the Government, which mient prove eminently disastrous to the State Banks. Is it objected, that it ia proposed to authorise the Rgenciesto denj in hills of exchange? It is answered* that-such dealings are tobe carried on at the fowest possible premiumare made to rest on an 'unquestionably sound basisare designed to reimburse nni-ely the expenses whidi would otherwise detrojve upon the Treasury, awl are in strict subordination to the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of tboBankof Augusta agninst Earls, and other reported cases and thereby avoids all conflict with 8tate jnrmiictkm, which I hold to be indispensably repuisito. 11 leave* the banking privilege* of Iho States without interference: looks to the
