omit 10 press them upon the consideration of new Congress. For my views more nt large, Rs we'll 70 ro' laIOn to these points tO tue disqualification of en' bers Of Congress receive an office from President tn whose election they have had m official agency, which proposed us a substitute refer you to my former messages.

 Our system OI public accounts is extremely cOmpli- cated, and, it is believed, may he much imprOVed.- Much of the present machinery and a considerable portion ofIe expenditure O pubic money may be dts, persed with, while greater facilities can be afforded to the iqudaiion of claims upon the Government, and examination into their justice and legality quite as efficient as the present, secured. With view 10 a general reform in the system, recomnend the subject to the attention of Congress.

 deem it my duty again to call your attention to the condition of the District of CouIabla 1t dOubl- less wise in the framerS Of Constitution place tho people of this District under the jurisdiction of the General Government; but, to accomplish the objects they had in view, it is not necessary that this people should be deprived fall the privileges of se!igOvern- meat Independently of the difficulty of inducing the Representatives of distant States to turn their ton to projects Of laws which of the highest interest to their constituents they individually nor tn Congress collectively, well qualified legslae the local of this District. Conse0uent- y, it's interests much neglected, and the people are almost afraid to present their grievances, lest body tn which they represented, and which feels little sympathy tn their focal relations should in it's aempt10 make laws for them, do more harm than good Governed by the laws Uf the States whence they were severed, the two shores of the Potomac within the ten miles square, have different penal codes; not the present codes Of Virginia and Mary land, but such existed in those States the time of the cessiOn to the United States. As Congress will not form new code, anu as the people ofhe District cannot make for themselves they virtually un- der two Governments. Is 1t just allow them least delegate in Congress, if l0ca! gisature, to make laws for the District, subject the approya! or rejection of Congress? l earnestly recommend the extension to them of every political right which their interests require, and which may be compatible with the Constitution.

 The extension of the Judiciary system of the United States lS deemed be O inc duties Inf Govern- ment. One fourth of the States in the Union do mol, participate in the benefits of Circuit Court. To the states oC Indiana, Illinois, Missouri Alabama, Misss- sioPi and Louisiana, admitted into the Union since trict Canrt has been allowed. If this be sufficient, then the Circuit Courts already existing in eighteen states, ought to be abolished if 1t be not sufficient t.c defect ought 10 be remedicd and these states placed on the same footing with the other members of the Union. It on this condition, uafl on this footing, that they entered the Union; and they may demand Ccnit Courts as a matter, not of ncessiOM but of right trust that Congress will adjourn, leaving this anomaly in our system.

 Entertaining the opinions heretofore expresscd in relation to the Bank of the United States s at prcs ent organized, felt it my duty, in my former Messa ges frankly to disclose them, in order that tho a,ten ton of the Legislature and the People should be sea- sonably directed to that important subject and that it might be considered and finally disposed of in man. ner best calculated to promote the ends of the Cons tuition, and subserve the public interests. Having thus conscienousiy discharged constitutional d1iy l deem proper, on this occasion, without more par tlcuar reference 10 the views of the subject then ex. pressed, to leave it for the present to the oi an enlightened people and their represe

 In conclusion, permit to invoke that Power which superntends all governments, to infuse into your deliberations al this important crisis of our his. tory spirit of mutual forbearanco and concilistiou In that spirit was our Union formed, and in that spir
