That which accrued from the same sources during the year 1819, amounted to 21,435,700 dol lars, 69 cents.

There is no just reason to doubt that ao•y suns that ►nay be necessary• to be raised by luau can be obtained upon terms nut less thveurable, but as it is poesible that the surplus of the revenue, atter satisfying all the demands upon the treasury, will be equal to the redemption of any debt which only be contracted in 18::1, it is respetfully submitted that the President of the United States be authorised to borrow from the Rank of the United States, or front other Banks, the sum that may be necessary fur the service of that year, at par, and us a rate of interest not exceeding 6 per cent. redeem able at the will of government.
