because the House did not, then understand the nestion. Laughter.) | hope thes 80 now, sir, 8 array, seep a eice number of vessels to be called a Home Squad. ron—for what puvose is it? What does it look like ? As though we pected our coast to be attacked by Great Britain? 0, But it looks like being prepared to vee war with Great Britain if she should dare to take possession of the Island of Cuba. (Great sensation, and the members crewded down in front of Mr, Adams.) It looks like a direct preparation for war, sir! Yes, sir, for war! Ivonnsott— Will the gentleman yield the floor to allow me to ask him a question ? Avams—If it’s a question of that kind, I think Pd better not, sir, (Laughter.) Ivcensoti— Will he allow Great Britain to take posses- sion of Cuba? (Great sensation.) Avans—Let me ask the gentleman, Is he ready for a war with Great Britain ? Inoensou — (Quickly) yes, without a moment’s hesita- tion, rather than she shall take ion of Cuba! (Great itement throughout the House.) Several Mesnens cried out, “good,” “that’s right,” “certuinly”—“that’s the true doctrine,” and considerable sensation, Avams.—Very well, sir. That’s an answer for me, sir! ‘That's au answer forthe country, sir—for the coun wy Inoensou..—You're welcome to make the most of it. Avans.—Now, sir, I would not go to war with Great Britain on any consideration of that kind! nor for such @ case as the Creole; nor for any such considerations. And 1 rejoice to find that the morals of the country, and the feelings of the people are such that they would not allow us to go to war for these reasons. But to return, sir. The gentleman, says, that it’s by an administrative reform that we only can economise. Why sir, 4 dame that we were situated like the members of the British Parliament ! That we had no pay at all! What would bejsaved by that, sir? ‘The gentleman says our expenses are $2,000,000. Well, sir, perhaps by crowding together the expenses of Con and the Sec: ies. and the Executive Depart- and so on, hemay make it amount to $2,000,000, o11.—No. for Congress alone, $2,000,000, ‘Well, Sir; take that sum for Congress alone ; for all its expense—for the printing of documents, 13 or 14 volumes in a session—for trasmitting them to our con- stituents in all parts of the country, for all the contingent expenses for the entire legislative business of the nation, throughout one Congress, it may amount to $2,000,000. And see what is done for the country for that sum’? Sup. pose, Sir, that wercut down $2,000,000 from your $9,000, asked for, by the Secretary of the Navy ; that will Teave you $7,000,000. 1s not that enough, Sir, for the sup- port ol your Navy ina time of profound peace? And sup- se that we are so ravagant as to expend $2,000,000 uring one Congress,—what is done here, Sir? What is the interest to the country in the legislation of this body ? And what is the interest of the Navy to the country—what isdone by that Navy for the benefit ef the country, in comparison with our proceedings? That Navy, perhaps, will go and insult some other nation—or take possession of some territory belonging to a nation with whom we are at peace—or invade some other country whose navy is weaker than ours, as has been done, Sir, What 1 ask, is done the country by that ? (Perfect silence.) But, Sir, the gentleman’s proposition’ is unsound to beg with. It is not here that your reform must commence ; but in your enormous expenditures for anArmy and Navy. And, Sir, I feel under deep and lasting obligations to my friend from Tennessee (Cave Johnson,) forthe reform in those branches which he introduced and which were car- ried through Congress two years ago, Sir, the appropria- tions for those branches of the public service were then reduced four millions. At the commencement of that session, the Secretary of War asked that the Army might be increased to 20,000 men—in a time of peace ; and the House instead of granting it, cut down the army from 12,000 to 8,000 men. So also the Navy was reduced very considerably ; and the result was a saving to the country of $4,000,000 in one year. Sir, I maintain that that Con- gress was the most retrenching Congress that we ever had ; and the means they employed were the reduction of the Army and Navy. INarxson.—Who was the Secretary of War at that time ? Avams—I think it was the present Secretery of the ‘Treasury, ‘The Commander-in-Chief (agentfeman for whom [have the highest respect) said that the then num- ber of regiments was fourteen, and that two more were wanted immediately, and the Secretary recommended them in his report, Incersott—Oh, but he also recommends Treasury notes —(Laughter). Avams—And it was these reports at that session, Sir, from the Secretary of War, and the Secretury of the Navy, that showed in reality what the policy of the Administra- tion was. It was a recommendation of an outlay of at least $40,000,000 a year. And this would have been ex- pended, Sir, if it had not been for the prudence and firm- ness of this House. And I hope that they'll stand firm to their principles, now, Sir ; and instead of an almost bound- less expenditure for implements of war and for purposes of war, and ‘ion and bloodshed, let the army and navy Ve reduced toa peace establishment. . (Cry of ‘Good —it shall be!”) On another point, Sir, the gentleman was wrong in his premises. He said ‘that it was here, in the administrative branch of the government, that. retrench- ment must begin. Sir, this is not the administrative branch. ‘Vhis ‘is the legis We control, alter, revise, the acts of the E: ministrative branch. This is the place for legislation ! And as to his plan of economising !—I wish, Sir, that he'd try, with all his might, to reduce the expenses of this House. We should soon see what all Ais plans of retrenchment would amount to! Why, sir, he would be able to save nothing but candle ends, and | don’t think he'd do that.— (Bursts of laughter) Sir, an attempt was made in the last Congress to reduce the expenses of this House. At the head of one committee was a respected gentleman from Virginia, (Gilmer) who is here this session ; and at the head of the other was another res; gentleman from Virginia, whom I deeply regret is not in his place now, sir—(Summers, who is detained at home by sick- ne’s). ‘These committees were composed of able and good men ; they examined the whole subject, and no Committees ever did their duty more faithfully than they did. Well, sir, what did they do after all? Why, the entleman from Pennsylvania himself laughed at what they did! ‘They saved’ a small sum in the article of sta- tionery. They economised in the matter of a few pens, ~some paper ; and I believe they dispensed with the ser- vices of one door-keeper, and dismissed two pages! And this was the sum total of their retrenchment, sir—(laugh- ter). And if we were to form a new committee, and place the gentleman from Pennsylvania at the head of it, they would succeed no better, sir—(laughter). It has been the common practice of many gentlemen to rail ‘at the extravagance of different administrations—to say that if you want reform, you must stop the appropriations— then perhaps impeach the heads of departments who ex- pend the money—and declare that it is the most profligate administration in the world,and one that does nothing but devise means for squandering the money of the people !— Sir, 1 make no chargze of this kind! I never charged any‘administration with extravagance. I did not charge thé administration of Mr. Van Buren even with extrava: ‘ance. But I do say that it is the duty of Congress to imit the expenditures of every administration. Con- gress has no other mode of controlling the action of the government, but by drawing the purse-strings tight and making no sipcemal And therefore it is the duty of Congress on all occasions to exercise this power judicior ly. Another plan of reform and ret: enchment is,sir,as tojthe time proposed for adjournment. Various members, sir, haveproposed various times for the adjournment of the House this session. Some say May, others April, and one gentleman says “ March.” Bui we have hirat to make our appropriations! We have, besides, four or five mil- lions of debt to pay, in some way or other, sir; whether we agree to adjourn early or late. For my’ part, sir, | am perfectly willing this House should adjourn, in March, or ‘Avait, or MAY ; but I remember that this very same pro- position was brought forward at the last long session, and at as carly a period as this, sir, we had a regular proposi- tion before the House to adjourn in May ; what was the result, sir? Why, the House let the month of May pass before they even undertook to consider the proposition. — (Much laughter.) It is true, sir, with regard to the gen- tlemen, himself, that he did introduce a proposition to re- trench. He moved to strike out $100,000 from the appro- priations for the Judiciary. Sir, those expenses in all come within $500,000 ; and what are they for? For your Judges of the Supreme Court—for juries—for expenses of witnesses—and for all the expenses of the law courts of the United States ! All these items are calculated with the same nicety as a billof goods delivered. And yet he would cut down $100,000 from the Judiciary. No reason assigned—no statement rendered for so doing. But cut it down, and this was done, And how was his reform car- ried into effect? Why, when the gentleman, at the close of the session, the last two days, when our labors were almost superhuman ; when he was gone home to amuse himself with his constituents—there was an additional ap- propriation sent in of $500,000, and it passed then without aword! (Here Mr. Adams slapped his hands and the members laughed heartily ©. J. INaxnsort—Yes, in an Indian Treaty—(Roars of laughter.) Apams—(Laughing)—Yes, Sir, and there were more things passed in that Indian Treaty than ever I knew ina ‘Treaty in this House before—(roars of laughter.) But I'm not going to spenk about that now, Sir. INGensou.—W. Jndidiary get along very well without that $100, Avans—Yes, Sir; but I'll be bound that we shall have to pay the whole of that $100,000 at last, j st as if the up. propriation hadn't been struck ont. And, now, Sir, what J wish to see done, is that the House would cut down those nine millions asked for by the Navy, and the large appro- priations forthe Army, and make a snitable feduction ; and not rest satisfied with a mere $100,000. Mr. Apams sat down, Mr. Hane took the floor to reply, and the House adjourned. Philadephia. (Correspondence of the Herald.) Pruaperrnia, Dec. 28, 1843. James Gonpon Brnnerr, Esq.:— Dear Sin— | haste to relate to you a very sudden death which took place in our Court of Common Pleas this morning. The Honorable Aaron V. Parsons was holding the Court, and was trying the case of Murphy against Jones, a feigned issue to try the validity of the last will and testament of Peter Shade deceased, which will Doctor Joseph Clapp had signed as a witness. The cause had been twice before tried, bat no verdict was had. ‘The court this morning were kept in waiting for a short period, till Dr. Clapp should arrive. He came into court from his carriage, which he left in front of the Slate House, took his seat inside of the bar, and in less than ten minutes and before the jury could be collected together, (having been permitted to retire till. the arrival ot Dr. Clapp) his head sunk on his breast, and in a mo- mont he raised it in a struggle for breath ; he was carried out of the court room into the air, and was dead in less than Our celebrated and skilful physician, Dr arrived in time to see him die, so that if mor- e saved him it wasathand, Dr. Rush shook his head, and all was over. Judge Parsons, who. while he is one of the most clear-headed, or minded, judges in the Stato, is never forgetful of his duty asa man, immediately adjourned the court. Now the able counsel in this cause, John M. Read, Esq., for plaintifts, Paul Brown, Benj. Tilghman and Barclay, E:sqs. fewdants, will have to try this cause withont Dr. C unhags this sudden bereavement teaches the partiesw liom, that they had not time to quarrel in this world, and they compromise through their counsel. We can spe fidently from the universal and uniform conduct of Judge Parsons upen the Bench, that if justice can in that way be reached, his approbation would follow. may, however, feel sxfe, ifthey cannot do justice for themselves with the aid of their counsel, that he w without fear or any character offavor. 1 was seated inside the bar this morning,surrounded by a number of the ablest of its meio- bers, when it was remarked by at Judge Parsons was an honor to the Judiciary, we and fair in his opinions, but always ready, willing, and able to put his opinions, upon the smallest’ points when he differed with the test or most humble member of the bar, in wri- ting ; so if wrong he could be corrected—he is a jewel of a Judge—an upright and brave man. It is due to him, the Court, the Bar, and the people that this much should be said, and that others should follow his virtuous exam- ple. It would be better for them, better for the a and better for Justice. HAMILTON, QG- Senator Sevier is convalescent.

In that short period they will be compelled to draw in their immense loans on stocks, to an extent sufficient to make a good report to] the Comptroller and thefpublic.— Should the banks even refuse to make further loans on stocks prices will receive a blow from which some of the most fancy would never recover, The operations in all de- scriptions will be very fluctuating until the course of the banks is more settled. ‘They Jhave too great a stake m danger to hazard by their own acts. ‘The brokers know- ing the true position of the banks, and how deeply they are involved, have some little confidence that they will not be abandoned in their extremity. ‘The Bridgeport Bank has declared a dividend of three per cent.

The Banks of Vir- ginia have moved along, without having received that rect from expansion that the banks of every other State in the Union have; but their condition is very precarious, not having been purged and cleansed out to an extent that a healthy state of existence requires, ‘The imports of manufactured articles from foreign coun tries for the past twenty years, from a period shortly after the close of the last war, exhibits a very curious condi- tion. The fluctuations, from year to year, have been great, and equal through the whole time. The importa- tions for the last year were smaller than they were twen- ty years ago, as regards value. The quantity has in creased from time to time, as prices advanced or declined. Imronts of Cottons, Woon tHe Unitep State Woollens. $7,497,737 12,185,904 Years.

As the resources ofthis country become developed, and the various interests become recenciled, the wants of the people will be more generally supplied by themselves- ‘The effect of all this is in the first place a decrease of the revenue, This fact should be taken into consideration.— Former tariff created a revenue from the articles included in the above table of value, that went far towards swelling the receipts from customs to an amount sutficient to sup- ply the wants of government. The causes that required a discriminating duty in times past no longer exist—the same duty that heretofore existed on these articles, with the decreased imports, would not create a sufficient reve- nue in proportion to their value for the additional wants of government. ‘The falling off in the receipts from cus- toms, must be made up from the rest of the importa- tions. The decline in one place must be made good in another. A more equal distribution must take place, so as the’decrease in any one important item wil! have no very sensible effect. ‘The Secretary of the Trea- sury, in his annual'report, flatters himself that the im- portations will incrcase as the country recovers from its late depression. ‘The imports into this country never will reach again what they have been. Our fimportations of cot_ ton, woollen and silk manufactures from abroad, will gra, dually decline, under a natural course of things, every year. They may from year to year fluctuate with the state of the currency, but the amount will assuredly settle down to a lower level than has ever yet been expe- rienced. [t is argned that a nation must import as. much as they export—that is true, but the balance of trade must come or go in the shape of specie. ‘This, in the course of time and events, must be an immense exporting country, and the imports will decrease, from time to time, until we become the creditors of the whole world. Our revenue must, in process of time, emanate from some other source than duties on imports. At present this is the principal resource, which requires careful arrangement to make it productive. ‘The creation ofa duty on foreign articles, similar to those manufactured or produced in this coun- try, for the purpose of protection and revenue, cannot be depended on in estimating receipts from one season to an- other, as our own productions are so rapidly displacing similar ones of a foreign manufacture; and the consump- tion, if prices correspond, naturally inclines to the pro- tection of our own industry. This should have the effect to place duties for revenue on foreign produce, consumed in this country, which we cannpt create, or obtain ex- cept from foreign countries. The principal articles that come under this head are tea, coflee, sugar, molasses, wines, fruits, spices, besides {many other items used as luxuries, which would be proper dutiable imports for revenue. The importations of necessary articles for con- sumption, such as food, would be very regular, and could be depended on in estimating receipts for future fiscal years; nothing would decrease the amount but un- 0-2 Thos Hunt & co—13 Post & Thomas—| WB Bend iy ¥. bir 1F 3 & D Lathrop—25 Hughes, Ward & co— 2D: id ‘& son—23 Nevins & co—10 Tooke, Mead & €o i Langley 3 Madiew Arnationg 1 Richd Irving—10 fl kley-—4 Danl Oakey & sous”?
