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

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

amount sold during the entire per od, will only

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

! 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

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.
