SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY. 523 REPORT ON THE FINANCES. DECEMBER, 1S14. The Secretary of the Treasury, in obedience to the act i: supplementary to the act entitled an act to establish the Treasury Department," has the honor respectfully to submit to Congress the following report and estimates. The sums authorized by Congress to be expended during the year 1814, and for which appropriations have been made, are as follows : 1. For civil, diplomatic, and miscellaneous expenses $2,245,355 59 To this sum is to be added the amount which may be payable on the following accounts, viz: 1. The amount of fines, penalties, and forfeitures actually received into the Treasury, which is appropriated for defraying the expenses of courts of the United States. 2. The sums received by the collectors of the customs for the marine hospital fund and privateer pension fund, which are paid into the Treasury with the other moneys derived from the customs, but are exclusively applicable to the two objects here mentioned, respectively. 3. The moneys received into the Treasury for the United States' moiety of prizes captured by public vessels, which belong exclusively to the navy pension fund. These items are contingent and uncertain, until the accounts for the year are made up, and their amount ascertained. As they appear among the receipts into the Treasury. they must also be placed among its expenditures. They may be estimated for the vear 1R11 i t " 400,00U UU at — $2,445,355 59 2. M i l i t a r y expenses, including the Indian department, and the permanent appropriation of 200,000 dollars annually for a r m i n g and equipping the whole body of the milltiaof the United States . „ . 3. Naval expenses, including 200,000 dollars for the purchase of timber, appropriated by the act of March 30, 1812 " ' * " 4. For the public debt, such sum as the public engagements may require; and which, during the year 1814, may be estimated as follows: 0Q ' 524 [1813.

Some of these statements have been heretofore regularly mven for periods terminating on the 30th of September; and to preserve the series unimpaired, t h e i r preparation is postponed until they can be made out terminating with that day. They will hereafter be laid before Congress in the proper form: The amount of the cusloni-hou.^dm.cs which accrued during the year 1813 was ^ 0 7 0 , 0 0 0 . During the first two quarters of thc present year, they amounted to about $3,000,000. but, during the last two quarters, will not probably exceed one million. The amount r e c e i v a b l e into the Treasury during the year 1814, from bonds outstanding at the commencement of the year, and from the duties accruing, and which will become payable during that year, is estimated at $ 7 , w h i c h is $500,000 more than was heretofore estimated. Of this sum, $4 182 088 25 was paid during the first half of the year, and will leave, payable during the remainder of thc year, the sum here stated. . .. .... ,„ Sales of public lands.—The proceeds of the public lands sold in the Mississippi Territory, which are now payable to the State of Georgia, are b r o u g h t into the Treasury in the same manner as the moneys derived from the sales 01 other public lands. As the amount, when paid out of the Treasury to the State of Georgia, appears among the public expenditures, it is proper that these moneys should ne placed among the receipts of the Treasury. Including the proceeds of the lands in the M i s s i s s . p p i TCTHtory the receipts during the year 1814 are estimated at pK*MA!U, of which, $540,066 68 having been received during the first two quarters of the year: there will be receivable ^ q ^ q CO durim? the last two quarters ' .~ Internal duties and direct < « . - T h e receipts i n t o the Treasury from these sources, during the present year, wm fully equal the estimate heretofore made. These taxes are paid readily and cheerfully. The direct tax is in collec- 1S14.J SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY. ' g527 tion in more than three-fourths of the districts, and will shortly 1* m the some state in all the districts except two or three, where the difficulty of obtaining competent persons to act as assessors has produced some delay. In seve™ o f *«« districts, the collection is already nearly completea. 1 he amount estimated as receivable from these two sources was 3,900,000 dollars. Of this sum, there was received prior to the 1st of July last 32,189,272 40, and leaves to be received during the remainder of the year' - $1,610 000 CO / outage, and incidental receipts.—These were esti' ' mated, for the whole year, at 50,(KM) dollars. Including repayments, prize money, and the arrears of ihe former direct tax and infernal duties, there was received, on these accounts, during the first half of the year, $166,744. These receipts are so casual abd uncertain, that it is difficult to make any estimate of their amount. During the remainder of the year they may, perhaps, be expected to produce 50.000 00 Total amount receivable for revenue - - $4,840,000 00 Under the net of the 24th of March, 1814, by which the President was aurhorized to borrow twenty-five millions of dollars, a loan was opened on the 2d of May for ten millions of dollars, in part of that sum. A loan for ten millions of dollars was considered as more likely to prove successful, than if an attempt were made to obtain the whole amount of twenty-five millions at once. The sums offered for this loan amounted to 11,900,806 dollars; of which 2^671,750 dollars were at rates less than 88 per cent., and 1,1S3.4(>0 dollars at rates less than 85 per cent. Of the sum of 9,229,056 dollars, which rvere offered at 88 per cent., or at rates more favorable to the United States, five millions were offered, with the condition annexed, that if terms more favorable to the lenders should be allowed for any part of the twenty-five millions authored to be borrowed the present year, the same terms hould be extended to those holding the stock of the ten million loan. Taking into consideration the expectation, then entertained, of an early return of peace, and the importance of maintaining unimpaired the public credit, by sustaining the price of stock in [the mean time, and. also, considering the measure was sanctioned by precedent, it was agreed to accept the loan with that condition. Had the sum to which the condition was annexed been rejected, the consequence would have been to reduce the amount obtained to less than five millions—a sum altogether inadequate to the public demands; or, by depressing the stock to 85 per cent., to have obtained only a little more than six millions, which would still have been insufficient to answer the purposes of Government. Offers were subsequently made to this loan, of sums amounting to 566,000 dollars, which were accepted on the same terms as the original offers, and augmented the amount of the loan which was taken to 9,795,056 dollars. T h e papers annexed under the letter B, exhibit the particulars relating to this loan. There was paid into the Treasury on account of the loan often millions, prior to the 1st of July, $6,087,011; leaving to be paid after that day, •83,708,045. Of this sum, a failure of payment on the days fixed by the terms of the loan, of about 1,900,000 dollars, has taken place; and it is doubt 379 R E P O R T S OF' T H E [1813. ful whether ihe payment will be effected. No more, therefore, can be relied on towards the supply necessary for the third and fourth quarter* of the year 1S14, than what has already bein paid, and amounting to about $1,800,000. Proposals were again invited ou the 22d of August, for a loan ot six millions of dollars, in lurther executiou of the power coiitamed in die act ot the 24th of March, for borrowing twenty-five millions. I he whole amount offered was only 2,823,300 dollars, of which 100,000 dollars were at rates less than 80 per cent, and 2,213,000 dollars were at the rate of 80 dollars in money for 100 dollars of six per cent stock. The remaining sum of 510,300 dollars was offered at various rates, from SO to 88. Notwithstanding the reduced rate at which the greater part of the above sum was proposed, yet, as the market price of stock hardly exceeded 80 per cent, as there was no prospect of obtaining the money on better terms, and as it was indispensable for the public service, it was deemed advisable to accept the sums offered at that rate. Including the sums offered at rates more favorable to the United States than that here stated, the whole amount of the proposals accepted was 2,723,300 dollars; and a further sum of 207.000 dollars has been since accepted at the same rate; making the whole amount taken of this loan 2,930.300 dollars. The annexed papers under the letter G relate to this loan. Some of the persons who originally made proposals for this loan, which were accepted, have since given notice that they could not carry tlieir proposals into execution. T h e sums ill relation to which this failure has taken place amount to 410,000 dollars; and there can, therefore, be relied on, for | the proceeds of this loan, only $2,520,300. Moneys having been heretofore obtained by the United States on loan in , Europe upon favorable terms, and the punctuality and fidelity with which they were repaid having established their credit there on a firm and respectable footing; it was determined, in consequence of the difficulties experienced in obtaining at home the sums requisite for the public service, lo try the market in that quarter. T o effect tins purpose, the requisite powers and in- , structions have been given for negouating a loan for six millions of dollars as a further part of the loan of twenty-five millions authorized by the act ol the 24th of March last; and in order to facilitate this object, 6 p e r c e n t . slocK to that amount has been constituted and transmitted, with directions for jt* sale, if that shall be found the most advantageous mode for obtaining tne money. The result, however, of this experiment, is not certain; and toe proceeds, in case it should be successful, will not probably come into tne Treasury in the course of the present year; they cannot, therefore, be among the resources of this year. But as this sum forms a part of tna which was authorized to be borrowed, and which will be necessary lor we service of the present year, further authority will be required from Congress for obtaining this sum, by loan or otherwise ; in which case, the P r o c e ^ \ of the negotiation undertaken in Europe will be applicable to the service of the ensuing year. . ' With a view to avoid the inconvenient increase of stock in the mariwM and its consequent depreciation, an effort was iaide to obtain tempwjH • loans from the banks, by special contracts ; but the attempt was not a t t e n d with success. „nder T h e amount of Treasury notes issued prior to the 1st of July last, , the act of the 4th of March, 1814, was $1,392,100. Those since issn amount lo $1,512^00. T h e annexed statement, m a r k e d E shows uw § ticulars relating to these notes; and in the paper marked D an accouu 1S14.J SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.

T h e r e are now in circulation near 8,000,000 of dollars in Treasury notes; oT which, during the fourth quarter of the present year, notes for more than four millions of dollars will become reimbursable. A partof them may, perhaps, be replaced by new notes; but it is not believed that, upon their present footing, more than two millions and a half of dollars can thus be replaced. This would still leave more than six millions of dollars of notes ii) circulation ; which the experience of two years has shown to be nearly a^ large a sum, while the other circulating paper medium of the country remained unembarrassed, and maintained itself in the public confidence, as can, in their present shape, be freely and easily circulated. Notes of a smaller denomination than those heretofore issued "have been prepared, and will probably, by passing into a more numerous and extensive class of the money transactions of individual^ carry a greater quantity into circulation; there having been already issued, since the 1st of Julv, Treasury notes amounting to 1,500,000 dollars, and it l«ing estimated that a further sum of 2,500,000 dollars may be put in circulation previously to the end of the present year, the amount estimated to be derived from this source during the third and fourth quarters of the year will be $4,000,000. , m . .

If further reliance must be had on loans, it is respectfully suggested that additional inducements should be offered to capitalists to advance tlieir money, by affording an ample and unequivocal security for the regular payment of the interest, and reimbursement of the principal of such loans as may be obtained. This may be effected by establishing an adequate revenue, and pledging the same specifically for that purpose. It is also submitted for the consideration of C ongress, whether Treasury notes might not, by augmenting the rate of interest they now bear, and securing its payment, as well as their eventual reimbursement, by an adequate revenue pledged for that purpose, be placed on a fooling better calculated than at present to sustain their credit, encourage their circulation, and answer with more certainty the purposes of Government. The estimates for thesrrvice of the year 1815 have not yet been prepared. It is certain, however, if the war continues, that a sum will be required nt least equal to tliat demanded for the present year; and under the head of public debt, an additional sura sufficient for the payment of the interest on the loans made in the mean time. By the plan of finance which was adopted at ihe commencement of the present war, this additional sum would be all that would be required to be raised by new taxes during the year 1815, except what might be necessary to mike good a deficiency in any of the existing revenues. According to that plan of finance, the expenditures to be covered by the revenue during the year 1815 would be as follows : Expense of the peace establishment . . $7,000,000 j Interest on the debt existing prior to the wat . 900 000 Interest on the debt contracted since the war. ' ' 135 If • < including Treasury notes, and including the interest which will become payable during the year IS 15, on debt contracted within that year - 4,600 000 -J 1— 6,600,000 The revenues, as now established, are estimated to produce, during the year 1S15, the following sums, viz: CiM/oms.—-While the whole navy of the enemy is disposable for the interruption of our trade, this source of revenue cannot be very productive. From bonds which will be outstanding at tbe commencement of the year 1815, and from the duties which will accrue during that year, it is estimated that there will be received into the Treasury . - $4,000,000 Sales of public lands . —""" HMl.HOO duties.- These will all bring their full amounts into the Treasury during the year 1815, and will, it is believed, produce a nett sum of . _ ; 2,700,000 Arrears of direct tax of 1814, which will be received in 1815 600,000 Postage, and other incidental receipts 100,000 Total amount And leaving to be provided "i^ooo 5,300,000 $13,500,000 1S14.J SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.'g 531 Towards making up this sum of5,300,000 dollars, a continuance ofthe direct tax will, it is believed, be necessary; but, at its present rate, it will not produce nett to the Treasury more than 2,600,000 dollars. In order to provide the remaining sum of 2,700,000 dollars, as well as such other sums as may be deemed requisite for the objects hereinbefore suggested, it will be for Congress to consider how far it would be expedient to increase this tax, as well as the present internal duties; and, also, what new objects of taxation may for that purpose be most advantageously resorted to. Hut the plan of finance above referred to, assumed, as one ofthe grounds upon which it depended, that loans might be annually obtained during the continuance of the war, for the amount of (he extraordinary expenditures occasioned by it. The experience of the present year furnishes ground to doubt whether this be practicable, at least in the shape in which loans have been hitherto attempted. Nor is it even certain that the establishing and pledging of revenues adequate to the punctual payment of the interest and eventual reimbursement ofthe principal ofthe sums which will be required for the service ofthe year 1815, would enable the Treasury to obtain them through the medium of loans effected in the ordinary way. With this view of the subject, it is respectfully submitted whether it would not be expedient to extend the provisions to be made for the service of the ensuing year, beyond those contemplated in this plan of finance hitherto pursued for carrying on the war, so as to provide, by means other than loans, for at least a portion of the extraordinary expenditures occasioned thereby. This would have a tendency to insure public confidence, and preserve and confirm the public credit. The present state of our country, growing out ofthe unjust policy of the enemy, as well as the unusual manner in which he prosecutes the war, calls for new and extraordinary exertions on the part ofthe nation; and the means requisite to meet the expenditures which these may occasion ought to be provided. The resources ofthe nation are not exhausted; they are ample, and the occasion requires they should be brought into full activity. The very- expenditures which render necessary the imposition of additional taxes, will themselves have increased in the community the ability to discharge them. The promptitude and cheerfulness with which the present taxes are paid, afford the best pledges of the spirit with which the people will meet such demands as the interest and safety of the country may require. A people who have not only tasted, but enjoyed in their full extent, the blessings ot liberty and independence, for more than thirty years, cannot consider any sacrifices too gTeat which arefoundindispensable to preserve them inviolate. Those sacrifices, however, which may be demanded by the present crisis in our affairs, will be of a temporary nature only; for while we may fairly calculate that, with the termination ofthe present contest, the duration ot which will be shortened in proportion to the vigor and unanimity with which it is sustained on our part, will cease the expenditures consequent on a state of war, and render no longer necessary a continuance of hose ex aordinary revenues established to provide the supplies requisite for that object^we^may with equal confidence rely that the growing — - i s - g from the comtirce of a few prosperous years of ^ace ^ L be i^nd «fficient to redeem the pledges which may have been made to the public y ^ 532 [1813. R E P O R T S OF' T H E creditors, tuid thus relieve the people from those burdens which times of danger and of difficulties rendered indispensable. All which is respectfully submitted.

Your proposal for dollars being at that rate, or at one more favorable for the I ruled States, has been accepted ; and you will be pleased to make yourjxtyments into the bank or banks specified in your proposal, m the manner and at the times stated in the ublic notification. But as some delay, the cause of which is doubtless nown to you, has unavoidably taken place in advising you of the acceptance of your proposal, the first payment may, if your convenience shall require it, be made on the 20th instead of the 10th of September, as required by the public notification. This, however, will not affect the subsequent instalments, which are, nevertheless, to be paid on the davs already fixed, viz: the 10th day of the mouths of October, November, and December. T h e same causes which have occasioned a delay in advising you of the acceptance of your proposal, will perhaps render it impossible to place the scrip-certificates in the hands of the cashiers of the banks where thc payments are io be made, by the time at which the first instalment will be nayable. If this Should be the case, you will please to receive from the cashier his receipt for tlie amount which you may pay, to be subsequently exchanged for a scrip-certificate, when those papers shall be ready for delivery.
