the public debt j are estimated to amount during the year to about sixteen millions while a still larger sum viz eighteen millions of dollars will have been applied to the princi pal and interest ofthe public debt it is expected however that in consequence of the reduced rates of duty which will fake ef feet after the 3d of march next there will lie a considerable falling off in the revenue from cus toms in the year 1833 it wili nevertheles he amply sufficient to provide for all the wants of the puhlic service estimated even upon a liberal scalo,.and for tho redemption and purchase of

tending to concentrate wealth int j & few hands and as creating those germs of dependence and vice which m otiier countries have charac terised the existence of monopolies and proted so destructive of liberty and the general good a large portion of the people in une section of the republic declares it not only inexpedient on these grounds but as disturbing the septal relations oi ■ property by
