During the four preceding years, from 1021 to 1324, both inclusive, the importations amounted to 303,955,539 dollare, & the cxportations to 227, 820, 350 dollars of which 191,350,831 dollars

only the payment cn account of the pub

with the 6ystem of internal improve ment. Looking at the 4 years which pre

It appears from the statements that the increase of revenue, during the last 4 year3, i3 eighteen millions. The w hole of this increase I. is been in the customs, which blanch tf the revenue lias annually increased at the rate
of twenty four per cent. The increased expenditure lias been about ten per cent, chiefly caused by rial improvements. The increase in the receipts is attributed to the operation of the Tariff of 1321.
The imports, during the last four
vcar, have exceeded those of the pre
herever payment was to be made, ,
transferring them from place to place,
and concentrating them at the point
required. Ihe report also refers to the bene6cial aid received from this institution, in becoming the depository for
the public money, fiom whatever
branch of the revenue derived, and in assisting in its collection; and also to
its advantageous agency in establishing a sound and convenient currency. The argument in favor of the Bank ia
ucid, and forms, by no means, the least
interesting portion of this valuable doc
ument.
A reference is made to the prospecU
and progress of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Canal, not more flattering than
just, in that part of the report in which
the eecretary fulfils the duty of repor
ting his compliance with the act ot Congress authorising him to eubsciibo
to that natonal work.
In conclusion the report'gives the re
ceipts and expenditures of the past and
present years, as far as received, v an estimate of those for the year ensuing. The actual receipt?, from all source, during the year 1327, amounted to $22,906,363 3G, with the balance in the Treasury on the 1st of that year, of$C,353,G86 13. gives and aggregate of 26,325,050 14.

the increase of population, indicating
in unequivocal increase of prosperity. The report attributes this condition
of prosperity to "the advances w hich

It inforces the former reconimendation to foster manufacturing labor, "under the conviction, deeply entertained, that in its fuccess is largely to be found the ground work of financial power." It also re-enforces "Ihe policy of important amendments in our commercial code, by lowering the duties on foreign articles," such as teas, by removing the restrictions on re-exportation, by an extensiou of the warehousing system, and the abolition of all transit duties.
