The ac authoring a detachment ofone hundred thoufand men from the militia will expire on the 30th of March next. Its early revival is recommended, in order that time! iieps may be taken for arrangements, iuch as the aCl contemplate d. Without interfering with the modifications, rendered neccflary by the defects or ineflicacy of the laws rer.riclive of commerce and navigation; cr with the policy of dilailouing to foreign armed vcrffels the life of our waters ; it falls w ithin my duty to recommend alio that in addition to the precaution

ary tneaiurcs ;iutlujrilld by thatacl and to the regular troops, for com-pit-ling the legal ellablillunent of w lich enlifln'ents are renewed, every neceifary piovifion may be

mndr, for a volunteer force of 20 t umland men, to be cnlifted for a hort period, and held in a flate of organization and read inefs for ac tual fervice at the fhortefl warning. 1 lubmitto the confideration of congrefs. moreover, the expediency of fuch a claflification and organization of the militia, as will belt inftire prompt and fuccefiive aids irom that fource, adequ He to emcrgencies which may call for them. It will reft with them alfo, to determine how far further provifion may be expedient for putting into aelual fervice, if neceifary, any part of the naval armament not now employed. At a period prefenting features in the conduel of foreign powers towards the United States, which impofe on them the neceflity of precautionary meafures involving expences. It is a happy confideration that fuch is the folic! ftate of the public credit, that reliance can be juflly placed, on any legal prOyifion that may be made for refort. inh to it, in a convenient form, and to an adequate amount.

to reduce the price of fait by

hxing its maximum, havieg proved ineffectual, that condition is prefiTved only for the purpofc of guarding againll monopoly but the important point being to reduce the market price by en. crealiug the quantity made, the propofals belt calculated to anfwer that object, and offering in the mean while, and until that reduction lhali take place, the highell rent to the United States will naturally claim the preference. It muff at the fame time be underflood that government will take into confideration the characler and ability to perform the contract, not lefs than the nature of the propofals.
