[Continued from Second Pafc.) Vol ween present and future value, that a sum paid down id worth twice as much as an equal sum to be paid sixteen years hence, estimated at 6 per cent, simple -interest, and four times as much as a liko sun) to be j?aid at the end of thirtytwo years. I do not take fractions of years into the estimate. Tim precipe! is familiar to all who are in the habit of calculating the present value of annuities for a given number of years, and is as appiicuole to regular annual incomes from land, or any other source, us it is from what is usually called an annu.tv. On the same principle, discounts are made on payments in advance. But we are in the daily habit of overlooking this plain and familiar principle, known to every business man in the m; nagc nent of his ownutiairs, in estimating me value of he public domain. In consequence of si ch oversight, the 160,000,090 of acres Bug in ihp new S;ates have been estimated to be worth $200,000,000, at $1 2o per acre?a sum nearly eight times greater than its real value, supposing that it would give an annual income averagirg $2,000,000 annually, and admitting r vt ry acre will he sold at $1 20?a supposition far greater than will ever be realized.? Trie Committee on Public Lands, at the last session, assuming t!.e.>o data, proved incontestahly that the true present value did not exceed twenty-six millions and a I.alt"of dollars. Tiicy showed, in the first place, that a permanent income forever of &2,5(H',0C0 would be worth hut a fraction more than forty-one millions ofdollars in h ind, as that sun;, at six per cent, would give an equal inco.ne. They next showrd, that to diri\e an income of 02,500,000 (i-o tini'dred and six'v millions cf lilt' acres in the new S'aUr, would exhaust c \"i v acre in eighty y< and thai Course, instead of beirg a pennant nt income, it would ho one only for that prrio \ wiucii wiuild reduce its value to about thii ? \-four millions cf dollar.', which Would !k- its pre sent value, if -here was ro F.xj.oi.&e alii r.dir g its sales and nun age. ment. Thai is, however, far from being the rase. Applying the same rule of calculation to the annual expense incident to their management, including what w ould l?e saved by tho Government, if the cession should be made, ascertained to be about 6550,000 annually, they find the present value of the land to be the sum slated. (8-26,51)0 000.) The result, assuming to be c orrect, is incontrovertible; aud that sun) would constitute the entire amount of the loss under the press rut system, if the lands were rcallv to be given awav by the proposed cession, as has been .i i most unfairly charged on the other sute of the chnn.her. I propone to apply the same principle *o the same land, to show its present value, under the operation of<ho measure I in. tend to propose. Should it he adopted, the whole of the lands in question would he Sold I a -so me. in twenty-five years from the time they become subject to the grnd- I ur.ting proces?wl.ieh is much more proh. nhie than that the whole would be j field in eghtv years at the present pr ce of ?l.'Jo per acre, I next assume that equal quantities wotj d he sold during each period rfgraduali??n. I next ns nme that the fortiori i,ot jel ottered for sale, and which, according to t.'.e amend.cent,would not hi- sutj?ct to graduation, and which is retimated in the rep, r; of the Committee on Public Lands, to amount to a little more than fiO.tW'tUHM) of acres would yield an average revenue during the tin years, equal in proportion to what :he JGOINIO,(MM acres are estimated to yield, p is proitat'lv much less ?han what they would 8s tliev will, lor the first time, he otl? r? d for sale I also ci-timate that tlie lands that have bo u ? fibred, and wh'ch have not yet run ten yi-ars, and wiil of course be held till then at a; ?1 *2o, will, with that which will he sold -- -1--?,,-oraon fit 14 1.2. Tfie aoi r* uui'iion >w v- J have also < stimatrd the whole period inch J?fg that w hi. h is in *v in progress towards ten yaars, and the first peril d of reduction, hp one one period of fifteen years, and that the entire amount sold during the entire per od, will only (qua) the 8\mgcot the other per. >de of grade. a?inn (fi\e years; an climate greatly under the tru'b. On these da la I ltave based the calculations which have been made, with grea! care and I find the present value of the lands would he more than a third more under rnv proposed amendment, than under the existing system; and rhat the excess would be sufficient to pay the 3-5 pr r cent, proposed to he allowed to the new S ates for their expense and tn u'de, let vi )g the 63 to bv received by the (?ovc>nmcnt, equal to the entire present \a!nc of the lands under the existing system. Such is the vast difference between r. reiving a l j.. smaller amount by annua! payim-ms, uuring half of a long period and a much lmg? r (.re in like manner during double of Hie lime. 'i in re are hut tv o of the data on which the calculation is based, which can b< M.|)|:<i.'-cd to have any material effect on the result, which can possibly prove to he ever estimated; the one, that all the lands will he so hi during the period of graduation, which however, is quite as probable, to say the least, as that all will he sold in eighty vtars ni #1 25; and the other, that equal qimutitK s wculo be sold during each step of the reduction. It is not improhah!e this may not prove, to he the case, aiwi that larger quantities would he sold towards the latter stages of the graduation, at low prices, than during the earlier stages at higher prices, which might mutually afieci the risuIt. The other supposition, that e qual sums would he received at <*?ch oeriod would* probably he much too low ; and the truth may probably prove to be between them; hut even on that assumption present value under the measure I propose, would greatly exceed that under the pre. sent system ; so much so, as to he quite sufficient to cover the 13 per cent, pro?used to be allowed to the States, fur their | trouble, above the expense of managing I t'na lands, including the saving to the I Government, bv the cession. I have asi sinned that pihatioiuil allowance, bveauso it nearly corresponds to that proposed to : he given ir: !hc bill for distiibution (irtro1 ducod by the author of the scheme.) 1o ; the new States, above that allowed to the old. 1 refer to the bill that passed both i Houses, anu was vetoed by the President. That allowed 121-2 per cent, which, for j the sake of facility in calculating, I have j enlarged to 13 per cent. 1 have. I trust, now successfully met the j only two objections which con. in my J opinion, he urged with anv plausibility ! against the measure I intend to propose, I by proving rot only that there would he ! reasonable assurance that the States would abide by the terms of the cession, but that it was the only measure which could be devised to j r vent the almost certain loss cf the public d main, under the operation 1 ^ * 1 ?- * ?" On/1 : 1)1 tllG SVSTeill, US U now suniuf, UIIU ?wu?, ! instead of a loss, there would he a clear 'pecuniary gain. If I have succeeded in j doing so, I have do :e all that ought, ac( ording to my cone? ption, to he necessary j to obtain th>; support of ihe body. But I j car.not be ign< rant thut there are members I from t!;e new Slates who prefer supporting : this bill to the measure I intend to ptopose; j not that they think it better, but because I they believe it has the best prospect of j pasoing. In this I think they are niistaj ken. It is not probable that either can j pacs the prcsentvsession. It is now but a I few weeks to its termination and it is im1 possible, in the midst of the crowd of other j business, that any important measure, not 1 indispensable, can get through, especially a system of pre-emption and graduation i which has been so long struggling, unsuccessfully, to pass both Houses. But if it cannot puss note there \ras U'Jle prospect ihit it cox id the r-.ext four years against the | opposition of the coming, when it could | not with the aid of the present and late Administrations, j With this prcsp. cf, I put to my friends ' frc m the new Sta.es, is there not danger in | pr* ssirg these isolated measures, which J cannot settle the vex< d arid dangerous question of the public lands, and which, j at hot, can be pressed on grounds only i interesting to those States, thatthev will O ' ? i lose r.ot only a favorite measure, hut cause the passage of one most obnox'ous to them I of al! measures, that of distribution? I a-k j them, c n you hope to oppose successfully : a measure so seductive to so many im m1 .>ers of the Union, by a measure so partial .n its operation, and which, so far lie m appealing to the reason or sympathy of j two-thirds of the S.at<s, s? cures hut a re, lectant vote from any of them ; more from ( party feelingfc and associations, than any | conviction of its justice or expediency? ! Let me telJ rn\ friends, that if the struggle i is ?o continue bat ween this bill and the j sch< me of distribution, it is on t e>r part, a desperate one. Deft at is certain ; and j there is no way to avoid i\ (if it he not j already t< o late,) hut to enlarge the i sue ?to raise it aho\e mere local or pecuniary ' considerations, to the broad and elevated groin <i of a final seit!< m< nt of this deep and agitating qu< stion, on just Ml:1 satis, j factory privciples am) thereby arrest the countless* vils rushing through that chan. 1 in I on the country. It is only thus an ; antagonist of sufficient strength could he ! reared up against the dangerous and cor. j ruling scheme of distribution. A moaJ sure seductive to ninny of the Stales, unfortunately overwhelmed by debt, could ; only be successfully opposed by one which ; would tnalte a powciful appeal to truth, 2 justice, a..d patriotism. As strong as ' may l>c the appeal to the necessity of J embarrassed States, a still stronger may ; he made to the higher and more ccrrmanj ding considerations of duly and patrio. j ti.-m. Such an issue, I believe, the mea! sure f propose would tender to the country. 1 solemnly believe it to be founded on ' truth, and sustained by just ice, and high ; considerations of policy ; and all it reeds to ensure it success, iff mistake not, is the I earnest and determined support of the ! States which not only have the deepest ..-take, hut whose independence and equally, honor and pride, as members of this , proud Republic of S ates, arc involved. } Having now presented n;y views of the ! amendment I intend to ofJ< r, with a moj tion to strike out the amendment (f the Senator from Kentucky, and insert mine, ! I shall conclude wi h a f wr< marks in refi r< nee tot. e I< ad.ngfeature ofhisamend i ment,1he distribution ofthe proceeds of : the public lands among the States, i It is not rnv intention to enter on the | discussion of a measure m h ich I cannot ; l;ut regard as palpably unconstitutional, as ! well as dangerous and corrupting in its | tendency. 1 do rot deem it necessary, j as I expressed my opinion fully on the subject, at the hist session. I intend at j this time to make a few remarks, in order I to show that, viewed under every possible j aspec', it must he regarded as cither fool1 isb, idle, cr unjust. ] It is admitted on all sides that the Trcas} ury is embarrassed, a?sd that no part of the revenue can he withdrawn without making a corresponding deficit, which must he supplied hv taxes on the people, j in one form or another, and that the withdrawal ofthe revenue from the land would ' cause a deficit so to He supplied, of not less, j probably, than $5,000,000 annually. The w hole process, then, would consist in givi irg to the profile of the several States j Ihejr proportional share cf\hc five million.* i of the revenue frcm the lands, to he colj lected hack from the people of ihe Unifeo ; States, in the shape cf a tax on imports, or some other subject, the same amount. ' Now, sfr, I ask, is it not clear, if a State should receive by its distributive .'hare a i less sum than the people of that State would have to pay in taxes to supply the J deficit, it would he, on their part, foolish s, i to support the distribution ? So, again,'if w they should receive the same amount they paid instead of a less, would it not be id e ? And if more, would it not he unjust? Can any one deny these conclu; sions? flow, then, can a scheme, which a, implies the one or the other of these al- i" ternnfives. (laying aside all other weighty I objections,) have any chance to be adopt- j ed ? But two answers can be given, j 0] The one, that the States, which would re- J reive more from the distribution than i a their people would have to pay to make up ! 1,1 the deficit, can outvote the others, and are j ; prepared to act on the principle of the ' strong plu rd< ring the wt ak ;and the other, r ' that a majority of the States want the mo- nov to pay their debts, or to spend in fav- w j orite schemes and prefer shifting the re- {( | sponsihility of taxing to the General Gov- c ernment to assuming it themselves, with- r< out regarding whether their people would j c< ' contribute mere or less than they may re- I ceive. TI cv are afraid to lay taxes, lest j, the people si ould see the sums extracted from their pockets, and turn them out; and to avoid this, would transfer the task to the General Government, because they ; can take from the people, through the tax i on imports, without being detected as to ! the amount. f i I take the opportunity, before I sit . down, to tender my thanks to the honora, hie and high minded suggestion of the i Senator from Missouri (Mr. Linn] consid- u ; s:d ring the interior quarter of the Union p fWh* wKirh hp mmi s. to set apart the '' | proceeds of the lands as a permanent fund d ! for the navv. | [Mr. I iiNN, in an audible voice. The ' navy and the defences of the country.] I would rejoice to sec such a disposition of it, and do hope that he will move an a- * ! mendment to that ( fleet. I would gladly | i receive it as a modification of my amend, ment, and would regard it as a great improvemeni. The navy, sir, is the right arm of our defence, and is equally im. y1 portant to every section?the North and j ! South, the Fa t nnd West, inland and sen- it i board. When I look at the condition of ! our country, and the world. I feel that | r* too earnest and too early attention cannot p i he I edowed on the arm cf d fence on j which the country must mainly rely, not rt i only lor susfais ing its just weight and in! fluence in the scale of nations, but also for ^ ' protection. i I h AWJVERS \RY n A TTENI ION! icncRAir utirr iwotrv f I I 1 APPEAR ??n your us'inl Pur do Ground (Murk el Square) "ii Monduy tlie 2'2:?<l <Juy. of tel-ru iry, insi. at U o'clock A.
