PrrHfrirnt UrnnC) rlrssHge on IIh Drrllne.
Washington, March LS. Tho following is
the message of President !rant, sent to Con
gress t-tlay, in relation to the decline of
American commerce:
To the Senate and Home of Rpreeiitatire:
In the Executive message of December '.,
1.'J, to Congress, tho importance of taking
steps to revive our drooping merchant ma
line service was urged, and a special mes
sage promised at a future day during the pre
sent session, recommending more speeilieally
plans to accomplish this result.
Now that the committee of the House of
Representatives intrusted with the labor of
ascertaining the cause of the dacliue of Ame
rican commerce has completed its work and
submitted its report to the legislative
branches of the Government, I deem this a
fitting time to execute that promise. The
very able, calm, and exhaustive report of the
couiiiiittoo points out the grave wrongs which
have produced the decline in onr couuneroe.
It is a national humiliation that we are no
compelled to pay from twenty tr thirty mil
lions of dollars annually, exclusive of jmsu;,'
iuonv, which we should skare with tUe ves
sels of other nations, to foreigners for doing
the work which should be done by Amennati
owned and American-manned vessels. Tins
is a direct drain upon the resources of t he
country of just so much money, eual to
easting it ifito the sea, so far as thw nation is
concerned.
A nation of the vast and ever-increasing
interior jts-urc.- wf U L-iuv tiuu,
fefidlpg, W it Uoh, frgra one to fee tter at
the great oceans of the world, with an indus
trious, intelligent, and cnergetio population,
must one day possess its full share of the
commerce of these oceans, no matter what
the cost. Delay will only increase this cost
and enhance the .difficulty of attaining the
result.
I thereforo put in an earnest plea for early
action in this matter in a way to inaure the
increase of American commerce. The ad
vanced period of the year, and the fact that
no contracts for shipbuilding will probably
be entered into until this question is settled
by Congress, and tho further fact that if there
should bo much delay all large vessels con
traded for this year will fail of completion
before the winter sets in, and will therefore
bo carried over for another year, induce me
to request your early consideration of this
subject. I regard it of such grave import
ance, affecting every interest of the country
to so great an extent, that any method
which will gain the end will secure a rich
national blessing. Building ships and na
vigating them utilize vast capital at home.
It employs thousands of workmen in
their construction and manning. It cre
ates a home market for the products of
the farm and the shop. It diminishes the
balance of trade against us precisely to the
extent of freights and passage money paid to
American vessels, and gives us a supremacy
upon tho seas of inestimable value in case of
foreign war. Our navy at the commence
ment of the late war consisted of loss than
100 vessels of about iro,oo) tons, and a force
of about 80(0 men. We drew from the mer
chant marine, which had cost the Government
nothing, but which bad been a source of
national wealth, f00 vessels, exceeding
1,000,000 tons, and about 70,000 men, to aid
in the suppression of the Rebellion. This
statement demonstrates the value of the mer
chant marine as a means of national defense
in time of war.
Tho Committee on the Causes of the Re
duction of American Tonnage, after hearing
the causes of its decline, submitted two bills
which, if adopted, they believe will restore to
Jhe nation its maritime power. Their report
shows with great minuteness the actual and
comparative American tonnage at the time of
its greatest prosperity, and comparative de
cine since, together with the causes, and ex
hibits other statistics of national interest in
reference to the subject.
As the report is before Congress, I will not
recapitulate any of its statistics, but refer
only to the methods recommended by the
committee to give back to us onr lost com
merce. As a general rule, it can be adopted.
I believe that a direct money subsidy is less
liable to abuse than an indirect aid given to
the same enterprise. In this case, howevor,
my opinion is that subsidies, while they may
be given to specified lines of steamers, or
other vessels, should not be exclusively
adopted; but in addition to subsidizing
very desirable lines of ocean trailio, a
general assistance should be given in an
effective way; and, therefore, I commend to
your favorable consideration the two bills
proposed by the committee, and referred to
in this message. U. S. Grant,

THE 1'IEGAXS.
Official Letter Irani (iencrnl Mierlilao - lie
Defends Colonel linker, and ttxplaluti the
Mfunllon.
The following official communication from
General Sheridan was received yesterday at
the Army Headquarters:
IlEAnyCARiT.ns Military Division ok tub
Missouri, Chicago, March 18, 1S70. General
W. T. Sherman, Commander United States
Army, Washington, D. C. General: The
further report of Colonel Baker, in reference
to the punishment of the Piegan Indians, has
not yet been received. It seems strange that
there should be such a want of knowledge of
the position which army officers have to
maintain in reference to Indian affairs.
I have in my command at least five thou
sand miles of frontier settlements, my chief
and only duty being to give protection to the
families residing on these long lines against
the outrages of Indians. The Government
has invited these settlers by opening the
lands to them for pre-emption ana improve
ment.
The number of men, women, and children
on this extensive frontier is very great, and
there is not a day, from one year's end to the
other, that these families are exempt from the
fearful thought of being murdered in the
most fiendish manner; the men scalped, the
women ravished, and the brains of the chil
dren dashed out.
When I said in a previous letter that soo
had met that fate since W,', I was below the
figure, and should have said l'JOO. My duties
are to protect these people. I have nothing
to do with Indians; but, in this connection,
there is scarcely a day in which I do not re
reive the most heart-rending appeals to save
settlers from the cruel fate which may come
upon them, and I am forced to the alternative
of choosing whether I shall regard their ap
peals, or allow them to bo butchered, in order
to save myself from the hue and cry of peo.
pie who know not the Indians, and whose
families have not the fear morning, noon
and night of being ravished and scalped by
them.
The wife of the man at the centre of wealth,
civilization, and refinement is not more dear
to him than is the wife of the pioneer of the
frontier. I have no hesitation in making my
choice. am going to stand by the people
over whom I am placed, and give them what
protection 1 can. We have not the troops to
place at each man's house to defend it, and
have sometimes to take the offensive, to
punish for crimes already committed, in
order to prevent the perpetration of others.
In taking the offensive, I have to select
that season when I can catch the fiends, and
if a village is attacked, and women and chil
dren killed, tho responsibility is not with the
soldiers, but with the people whose crimes
necessitate the attack. During tho war, did
any one hesitate to attack a village or twn
occupied iy ine enemy uecanse women or
children were within the lines '! Did we
cease to throw shells into Yicksburg or At
lanta because women ana ennareu were
there 'i
If the women and children were saved in
these places it was because they had cellars
to go into: and should any of the women and
children of the 1'iegans have lost, their lives
I sincerely regret that they had not similar
places of resort, though I doubt if they would
have availed themselves of them, for they
light with more lury ttiim mo men. i tie sol
diers do not want to kill Indians. After long
years of frontier service, J am satisfied that
they are the. ouly good practical l'rien.W the
Indians have.
We CBio not about being abused by one
side or the other. If we allow the defenseless
people on the frontier to be scalpel and
ravished, we aro burnt in efllgv and execrated
as soulless monsters, insensible to the snffer
ings of humanity. If the Indian is punished,
to give security to the people, we are the same
bou!!o:s L:onsicrs fruiu the olLer uJs. This
it a lad prtdh-jiatxt to be in, but, m J Lists
ssid, I have my choice, and am going to
stand by the people whom the Government
has placed me here toprotect.
The reservation is the last ditch of the wild
Indian, but to get him there he must be fired
on by the troops. Those who think he can
be induced to go there by other means are
mistaken. When on the reservation he will
have to be kept there by the presence of the
troops, and thus became tangible for the good
work of civilization, and he can only be pro
tected in bis rights while there by the troops
keeping off the emigrants who eneroach on
his land. All these points are practically ex
hibited each year.
The Cheyennes, Arrapahoes, Comanches, Kio
was, and Apaches have just been fired on by
the troops. During the last year, as soon as
1 withdrew the troops from the Sao and Fox
reservations, the emigrantsjtook possession; a
flood of emigration, almost ten thousand
strong, moved in solid mass and occupied the
usage reservation, because tnere were no
troops thero to keep them off. All the other
reservations on which toe Indians were set
before, will be lost in the same manner un
less guarded by military.

Third Day of the Trial Urave Contradiction
In tho Testimony Kochefort Called for the
Prosecution.
Tocrh, March 2:1. The High Court of
Justice opened at 11 o'clock. Witnesses
were examined to prove that Fonvielle said
Victor Noir slapped the Prince in tho face.
Tho lawyers for the prosecution dwell with
effect on some grave contradictions in this
testimony.
A number of policemen testified to remarks
made by Fonvielle after his arrest. The
prosecuting lawyer created a sensation by
decloring that the original report of the
police in this case was not to be found.
Only a copy, dated ten days later, could be
produced.
One witness swore be had beard Fonvielle
exclaim if his pistol had not missed tire he
would have shot the Printe. This had an
effect on the spectators, who are evidently
beginning to lean to tho cause of the Prinoe.
Witnesses for the prosecution were then
examined. Arnould testified that Victor
Noir had no intention of attacking the ac
cused when he went to his house.
Henri Rochcfort was called as a witness for
the prosecution. There was much agitation
among the spectators at the announcement of
his name. Kochefort entered the court room,
accompanied by two gerularme, and took his
place on the witness stand. He was pale but
very calm. He replied quietly to the interro
gations, and after repeating tho contents of
the letter sent him by the accused, which
occasioned the visit of Noir and Fonvielle,
he retired to the bench reserved for journal
ists. Many of the latter shook hands with
him. He took his seat.
The wife of Louis, brother of Victor Noir,
was called to testify. She was much agitated.
She said Victor Noir could not have slapped
the Prince, because the gloves on his hands
were found to be intact.
Other witnesses corroborated the statement
of Arnould, that Noir did not intend to quar
rel with the Prince.
Morel, reporter of tho Mouiteur, testified
that witnesses who now swear to Fonvielle's
admission that Noir slapped the Prince did
not say so at first.
M. Milliere and other witnesses testified to
the physical weakness of Victor Noir, anil the
improbability of his striking the l'rinoe.as the
defense alleged.
During the intermission of the court many
friends of .M. Jlochctort gathered around him.
The gendarmes interfered, and, surrounding
the prisoner, kept his tnends back.
THE M0IIRXANN CASE.
The Unite Hani on .llakean Cenli'sxlon.
During Hanlon's confinement in prison he
had placed in the cell with him another
prisoner (! ) to whom he made a confession,
which has been reduced to writing. Although
the original document is in the hands of Dis
trict Attorney Uibbons. yet tne following
which we have gleaned is the substance of
it:
Hanlon, says the gentleman, stated, in
commencing his confession, that he enticed
Marv into the yard, then detailed how he
choked her, and how he placed the body in
tho cellar and removed it.
He snid he pushed the body out through
the window, and after looking around to seo
if any one was about, wrapped it in a piece of
carpet and stole silently out of the alley and
walked sharply to tne lot at Mxtu ami Dia
mond streets, to spot he had previously
chosen, and laid the body in a ioul of water.
so that in case it should be found it would ap
pear that sbehad been drowned. After taking
a survey of the surrounding, he walked up
to Susquehanna avenue, and thence to Sixth
street, down tne latier uignway u Diamond,
iuii turfed Uicuco iu'.o tho void o." hii
Lome, Ttijjtir" tbnt It Lai taycrd tip
every track that would likely lead to his being
suspioioned, he went to bed. This was be
tween 3 and 4 o'clock in the morning. Find
ing that be conld not sleep, he got np and
dressed himself. The greater part of that
day he wandered about the city, thinking as
to what course he had better pursue to avoid
detection. The first intimation he had that
he was suspected wos when a couple of gen
tlemen entered his shop and quizzed him
about the murder. He left home the next
dsy, and remained away for some time.
Hearing no more of the case he returned,
thinking that he was perfectly safe, and that
no further action would be taken by the
authorities.
