Էջ 49 - June 17, 1850, to increase the rank and file of the army and to encourage enlistments, again rendered it necessary to increase the expenditures. To raise the additional number of men thus authorized, Congress appropriated $18,000, which, with the regular estimate submitted at the opening of the session, of §48,616, also appropriated, made a total of £66,616.
Էջ 131 - ... otherwise would inevitably be brought about by violence ?" — Such was the language of the United States, but it failed to obtain from Spain the boon which they craved. She, probably, had some misgivings as to the duration of their promised friendship, if they once extended their empire to the left bank of the Mississippi, from the mouth of the Ohio to the Gulf of Mexico. Some sudden and unexpected cause of quarrel might easily occur from the very proximity of the two flags, which the width...

Confusion and waste would result from such an organization, and the Survey would in time be abandoned. The scientific parts of such a work require diligent study and devotion to mathematical and physical science, to grasp them in their various bearings...
Էջ 4 - ... known to the law would be hailed as \ mercy's boon. But I do appeal to my government as it regards the obligation devolving upon it to preserve the American escutcheon unsullied, and the duty it owes to a neighboring nation to cut us loose from all participation in this most accursed traffic; and I again repeat my conviction that this end can only be accomplished by the adoption of the measures I have recommended.
