THE VETO MESSAGE. IIolSE OK REPRESENTATIVES?AugtlS/ 9, 1812. The following message was received from the President of the United States : To the House of Representatives of the United Stales: It is with unfeigned regret that I find myself under the necessity of returning to the House of I . Representatives, with my objections, a bill tntitlsd " An act to provide revenue from imports, and to change and modify existing laws imposing duties on imports, and for other purposes." Nothing can i ll?-w 1 mwift fn be more paint ul to any inuiviuuo? v. perforin the chief Executive duties under our limited Constitution, than to be constrained to withhold his assent from an inij>ortunt measure adopted by the Legislature; yet he would neither fulfil the high purposes ot his station, nor consult the ti uc interests or the solemn will of the People, the common constituents of both branches of the Government, by yielding his well-considered, most' deeply-fixed, and repeatedly declared opinions on I matters of great public concernment to those of a j co-ordinate department, without requesting that I department seriously to re-examine the subject of1 their difference. The exercise of some independence of judgment in regard to all acts of legislation is plainly implied in the resjmnsihility of approving them : at all times a duty, it becomes a peculiarly solemn and imperative one, when the subjects pissed upon by Congress happen to involve, as in the present instance, the most momentous issues, to affect variously the various parts of a great country,; and to have given rise in all quarters to such a conflict of opinion as to render it impossible to conjecture, with any certainty, on which side the i majority really is. Surely, if the pause for reflection intended hv the wise authors of the Constitu- I tion, by referring the subject buck to Congress for reconsideration, be ever expedient and necessary, | it is precisely such a ease as the present. On the subject of distributing the proceeds of tiie sales of the public lands, in the existing state ! of the finances, it has been my duty to make known my settled convictions on various occasions during the present session of Congress. At the opening of the extra session, upwards of twelve months ago, sharing fully in the general hope of returning prosjierity and eredit, I recommended j such a distribution ; but that recommendation was even then expressly coupled with the condition that the duties on imports should not exceed the rate of 20 per cent, provided by the compromise uct of 1633. These hopes were not a little en- j couraged and these views strengthened by the re-! l>ort of Mr. Ewing, then Secretary of the Treasu- I rv, winch was shortly thereafter laid 1^-forr Con- j grtss, in which he recommended the imposition of' duties at the rate of 20 per cent, ad valorem on all I free articles, with specified exceptions; and stated, 44 If this measure be adopted there will lie received ' in the Treasury from customs, in the last quarter j of the present year, (1811,) 8~>?3 )0,000; in all of i the year 18-15, about ?55,500,000; and in the j rear 1843, after the final reduction under the act j of March 5, 1?33, about 820,800,000and 1 adds, 14 It is believed that after the heavy expend itures required by the public service in the present! year shall have been provided for, the revenue which will accrue from that, or nearly a proximate rate of duty, will be sufficient to defray the | expenses of the Covcrnmcnt, and leave a surplus-) to be annually applied to the gradual payment of j the national debt, leaving the proceeds of the pub. I lie lands to be disposed of as Congress shall see j fit." I was most happy that Congress, at the time, seemed entirely to concur in the recommendations of the Executive, and, anticipating the correctness of the Secretary's conclusions, and in j view of an actual surplus, passed the distribution ! act of the 4th September last, wisely limiting its operation by two conditions, having reference, j both of them, to a posssible state of the Treasury, j different from that which had been anticipated by the Secretary of the Treasury, and to the paramount necessities of the public service. It or. daincd that " if at any time during the existence of that act there should be an imposition of duties on imj>orts inconsistent with the provision of the act of the 2d March, 1833, and beyond the rate of duties fixed by that act, to wit, 20 per cent, on the value of such imports or any of them, then the j distribution should be stis|>ciidcd, and should eon- J tinuc so suspended until that cause should be removed." Ily a previous clause it had, in a like spirit of wise and cautious patriotism, provided for another case in which all are even now agreed that the proceeds of the sales of the public lands ; should be used for the defence of the country. It was enacted that the act should continue and be I in force until otherwise provided by law, unless the United Statis should become involved in war with any foreign I'owcr, in which event, from the i commencement of hostilities, the act should be ' suspended until the cessation of hostilities. -Not long after the opening of the present session of Congress, the unprecedented and extraordinary I difficulties that have recently embarrassed the ti-1 nances of the country begau to assume a serious ! o T? tv.nn?,n ?l.o? ,1... ? yvvu 11 a" V.UIUV. i \ i?vm uiui tin i hopes under which the act of 4th Scptcml>cr was j p isscd, and which alone justified it in the eyes ! c ther of Congress who imposed or of the Executive who approved the first of the two conditions j just recited, were not destined to be fulfilled. Un- j der the pressure, therefore, of the embarrassments ! which hau thus unexpectedly arisen, it appeared to j me that the course to be pursued had been clearly marked out for the Government by that act itself. The condition contemplated in it as requiring a suspension of its operation, hadoccurred. It became necessary, in the opinions of all, to raise the rate I of duties ujion imports above 20 per cent., and, with a view both to provide available means to meet present exigencies, and to lay the foiuidation ! lor a successful negotiation of a loan, I felt it in cuinbont upon n?e to urge ujkv.i Congress to raise | ihc duties accordingly, imposing them in i spirit j ol a wise discrimination, for the two-fold object of/ affording ample revenue for the Government and ! incidental protection to the various branches of domestic industry. 1 also pressed, in the most j t mphatic but respectful language I could employ,' the necessity of making the land sales available j to the Treasury as the basis of public credit. I did not think that I could stand excused, much le** justified, lx fore the people of the United States, nor could I reconcile it to myself to recommend the imjK?si:ion of additional taxes upon them, j without at the same time urging the employment of all the legitimate means of the Government towards satisfying its wants. These opinions were ! communicated in advance of any definitive action ? of Congress on the subject ebhor of the tariff*or j 1 nd sab-*, tmdur a high seme of public duty, and i n compliance with an express injunction of,' {.lit Constitution ; no that i: a collision, extremely j to be deprecated, as such collisions always arc, I has seemingly arisen between the Executive and Legislative branches of the Government, it has J assuredlv not been owing to any capricious inter, j fcrencc, or to any want of a plain and frank dc- j duration of opinion on the part of the former.? ; Congress differed in its views with those of the j Executive, as it had undoubtedly a right to do, 1 and passed a hill virtually for a time repealing tiie j proviso of the act of the 4th September, 1841.? 1 The bill was returned to the House in which it ! originated with iny objections to its becoming a law. With a view to prevent, if possible, an open j disagreement of opinion on a point so important, 1 took occasion to declare that I regarded it as an ' indispensable prc-requisite to an increase of duties 1 above 'JO per ernt., that the act of the 1th Scptem- ' her should remain unrepealed in its provisions. ] My reasons for that opinion were elaborately set i forth in the message which accompanied the re- \ turn of the bill?winch no constitutional majority appears to have been found for passing into a law. The bill which is now before nic proposes, in its 27th section, the total repeal of one of the provisos in the act of September, and while it increases the duties alovc 20 per cent, directs an unconditional distribution of the land proceeds. I am therefore subjected a second time, in the period of a few : days, to the necessity of either giving my approval ' to a measure which, in my deliberate judgment, j is in conflict with great public interests, or of rc' turning it to the House in which it originated, with my objections. With all my anxiety for the 1 passage of a law which would replenish an e.x! liausted Treasury, and furnish a sound and hcalj thy encouragement to mechanical industry, 1 | cannot consent to do so at the sacrifice of the | peace and harmony of the country, and the clear, j est convictions of public duty. For some of the reasons which have brought I me to this conclusion, I refer to my previous nicsI sages to (."ongret*, and briefly subjoin the follow. j in?: 1. The hill unites two subjects, which, so far ; from having any affinity to one another, are wholly I incongruous in their character. It is both a revenue and an appropriation bill. It thus imposes : on the Executive, in the first place, the necessity j of either approving tint which lie would reject, or rejccti lg that which he might otherwise approve. This is a species of constraint to which the judgment of the Executive ought not, in my opinion, to be subjected. l>ut that is not rny only objection to the act in its present form. The union of subjects wholly dissimilar in their character in the same bill, if it grew into a practice, would not fail to lead to consequences destructive of all wise and conscientious legislation. Various measures, each agreeable only to a small minority, might, by l>cing thus united, and the more the greater chance of success, lead to the passing of laws, of which no single provision could, if standing alone, command a majority in its favor. 2. While the Treasury is in a state of extreme embarrassment, requiring every dollar which it can make available, and when the Government Ins not only to lay additional taxes, but to borrow money to meet pressing demands, the bill proposes to give away a fruitful source of revenue? which is the same thing as raising money by loan | and taxation?not to meet the wants of the gov. eminent, but for distribution, a proceeding which I must regard as highly impolitic, if not unconsti. j tutional. A brief review of the present condition of the 1 public finances will serve to illustrate the true condition of the Treasury, and exhibit its actual nc- | ccssitics. On the 5th of August, (Friday last,) there was in the Treasury, in round numbers, 8^,150,000 j Necessary to he retained to 111 ct trust funds .... ?300,000 Interest on public debt due in October 80,000 To redeem Treasury Notes and pay the interest - - - 100,000 Land Distribution, under the act of 1th Sept., lb 11 - - frit),000 ?1,180,000 I I-caving an available amount of - - - ?070,000 j The Navy Department had drawn requisitions j on the Treasury, at that time, to meet debts actu- ! ally due, among which are bills under protest for ?1,111,000, thus leaving an actual deficit of i ? 114,000. There was on hand about ?100,000 of unissued Treasury notes, assisted by the accruing revenue, ' amounting to about ?1500 per week, exclusive of receipts on unpaid bonds,, to meet requisitions for i the Army, and the demands of the civil list. The withdrawal of the sum of ?040,000 to be distributed among the States, so soon as the state- i ments and accounts can be made up and compk t- . ed by virtue of the provisions of the act of the 1th September last, of which nearly a moiety goes to a j few States and only about ?3^3,000 is to be divi- j iled among all the States, while it adds materially ; to the embarrassments of the Treasury, allbrds to the States no decided relief. No immediate relief to this state of things is an? ticipated, unless, what would most deeply be de- [ plored, the (iovernnicnt could be reconciled to the j negotiation of loans already authorized by law, at j a rate of discount ruinous in itself, and calculated j most seriously to affect the public credit. So great > is the depression of trade, that even if the present , bill were to Income a law, and prove to be produc- | f ive, some time would elapse before sufficient sup- f plies would flow into the Treasury, while, in the meantime, its embarrassments would be continual- j ... ly augmented by the semi-annual distribution of the land proceeds. Indeed, there is but too much ground to apprehend that even if this bill were permitted to become a law, alienating as it does the proceeds of tlie land sales, an actual deficit in the Treasury would occur, which would more than probably involve the necessity of a rc>ort to direct taxation. Let it be also remarked, that >?5,;>00,000 of the public debt becomes redeemable in about two years and a half, which, at any sacrifice, must be met, while the Treasury is always liable to demands for the payment of outstanding Treasury notes. Such is the gloomy picture which our financial department now presents, and which calls for the exercise of a rigid economy in the public expenditures, 1 n.wi ,1... -?,J.I? ,.? ... iu IUV U llUUUi^ UMIUailll VI liiv IJll.lIIO nillliti the control of the Government. I most respect- | fully submit, whether this is a time to give away i the proceeds of the land salt s, when the public ' lands constitute a fund which, of all others, may ( be made most useful in sustaining the public credit. t Can the (.'ovenuncnt be generous and munificent : to others when every dollar it can command is nc- I cessarv to supply its own Wants ?

Such an in- ' j crease of the Tariff, I believe to be necessary, in | order to meet the economical expenditures of gov- I < eminent. Such an increase, made in the spirit of ' moderation and judicious discrimination, would, < I have no doubt, be entirely satisfactory to tiie , ; great majority of the American people. In the I way of accomplishing a measure so salutary and j so imperatively demanded by every public interest, the Legislative Department will meet with a cordial co-operation on the part of the Executive. This is all that the manufacturer can desire, and it would be a burden readily borne by the people. But I cannot too earnestly repeat, that in order to be beneficial it must be permanent, and in order to lie permanent, it must command general acquiescence. But can such permanency be justly hoped for if the Tariff question be coupled with that of Distri bution, as to which a serious conflict of opinion ex- I ists among the States ant the people, which en- ! lists in support a bare majority, if indeed there be a majority, of the two Houses of Congress ?? What i>crmancncy or stability can attacli to a measure which, warring upon itself, gives away a fruitful source of revenue at the moment it propores a large increase of taxes on the people ?? Is the maufacturer prepared to stake himself and his interests upon such an issue ? I know that it is urged, but most erroneously, in my opinion, that instability is just as apt to be produced by retaining the public lands as a source of revenue as from any other cause, and this is ascribed to a constant fluctuation, as it is said, in the amount of sales. If there were anything in this objection it equally applies to every imposition of duties on imj>orts. The amount of revenue annually derived from duties is constantly liable to change. The regulations of foreign governments, the varying productiveness of other countries, periods of excitement in trade, and a great variety of other circumstances, are constantly arising to affect the state of commerce, foreign and domestic. The sahs of the public domain in ordinary times are regulated by fixed laws, which have their basis in a demand increasing only in the ratio of the increase of the jwpulation. In recurring to the statistics connected with this subject, it will be perceived that for a period of ten years preceding 1831, the average amount of land sales did not exceed 3d,000,000. For the increase which took place in 1831?o and G, we arc to look to that peculiar condition of the country which grew out oronc of the most extraordinary excitements in business and speculation that have ever occurred in the history of commerce and currency. It was the fruit of wild spirit of adventure engendered by a vicious system of credits, under the evils of which the country is still laboring, and which it is fondly hoped will not soon recur. Considering the vast amount of investments made by private individuals in the public lauds, during those three years, and which equalled $ 13,000,01)0, equal to more than 20 years purchase, taking the average of sales of the ten preceding years, it may be safely asserted that the result of the public land sales can hold out nothing to alarm the manufacturer with the idea of instability in the revenues, and consequently in the course of the government. Under what appears to me, therefore, the soundest considerations of the public policy, and in view of the interests of every branch of domestic indus. try, 1 return you the hill with these, my objections to its becoming a law. I take occasion emphatically to repeat my anxious desire to co-operate with Congress, in the passing of a law, which, while it shall assist in supplying the wants of the Treasury and re-establish public credit, shall afford to the manufacturing interests of the country all the incidental protection they require. After all, the effect of what I do is substantially to call on Congress to reconsider the subject. If, on such reconsideration, a majority of two-thirds of both houses should be in favor of this measure, it will become a law notwithstanding my objections. In a ease of clear and manifest error on the part of the IVcsidenf, the presumption of the Constitution is that such majorities will be found. Should they 1 be so found in this case, having conscientiously discharged my own duty, I shall cheerfully acquicscc in the result. JOIIN TYLER. Washington, August 0th, 1812.

Agriculture is the foundation of all human ; arts?the art for which man was made, and ; the perfection of which is his chief happiness and glory as the lord temporal of this planet* Of this eublime art, all other arts and sciences arc but satellites, their business being to wait cn, enlighten, and adorn it with their moonshine. Consequently no man more tnan the agriculturist needs the full use of his brains, and a perfect command of all the treasures of human experience. So the farmers of the United States view the matter; and in presenling them with a translation of the celc. brated .Maison Rustiquc, of the French, we have no doubt of their hearty support. It ic the work of all works on practical agriculture ?the most scientific, clear, and ccmpreheri- | sive, France has long excelled in profitable ' farming. This is the source of her wea'th. England is rich by coals and commerce. Ucr agriculture is "splendid, but sometimes costs more than it comes to. Those who have fortunes to spend may buy the vast works of Marshall, Dickson Arthur Young, Loudon, &c., but those who wish to get a fortune out of the soil will find the French writers better able to show them the way. Theexcellence of French elementary works is well known to all teachers. For centuries, the il/aison Rustique has been, in France, the standard elementary work?the spelling book and grammar of farming. The present edition for " the nineteenth century," has been re--written and brought up witli the " march of mind," by sixty of the ablest "agronomes" of France. I t has all the light of the latest improvements, not only in Frauce, but in all Europe. Wiiliam Cobbct, one of the most successful farmers both in England ar.d America, who wrote the best style and the be6t French grammer that ever was, valued the Maison Rustiqucs, not only as an encyclopedia of farming, but us a means of educating his children. He was his own schoolmaster. In winter evenings his family resolved itself into a school, and he thus speaks of the use then made of this work:? " Our book of never failing resource was tire French .Maison Rustique. or Farm House, which, it is said, was the hook that first tempted Dugnosnois (I think that was his name,) the famous physician in the reign of Louis XIV., to learn to read.
