Congress estimated at Rent TREASURY DEPARTMENT, VIZ: $ 5,000 00 500 00 500 00 400 00 This estimate corresponds with the existing provisions; but it will probably receive additions from others in the course of the session. In particular, it will be observed, that there is no article respecting the salaries of foreign ministers, their allowances not having been regulated by law. Neither does the estimate include those objects which remain to be provided for, in consequence of some deficiency in the estimate for the services of last year, and also from certain demands on the Treasury, founded on acts of the late vernment, which require an appropriation by Congress previous to their being discharged. These will form an estimate by themselves, under the head of Contingencies. REGISTER'S OFFICE, 5th January, 1790. No. 2.
