.rpon4Tl,rl Prue
tion of the Geneal commanding the
military division of the Pacific for the
kale of 14a.:-Seal'lsliiids, of St. Paul
end St. George, Alaqza Territory.and
suggeat that it either he complied
with,or that legislation be had for the
protection of the eaai fisheries, from
villich a revenue should be derived.
The report of the Secretary of War
contains a synopsis of the report of
the heads of bureaus. of the comman
ders of military divisions, and of the
district of. Virginia, Mistissippi and
Texes, and the report of the General
of the Army in full. The recommen
dations therein contained have been
well considered, and are submitted for
your action. I, however, call special
attention to the recommendation of
the Chief of Ordnance for the sale Of
arsenals and lands no longer of use to._
the government. Also, to the recom
mendation of the !Secretary of War
that act of the 3d of March, 1869,
prohibiting promotions and appoint
ments in the staff corps of the .arniy
be repealed. The extent of country
to be garrisoned, and the number of
military posts to he occupied are the
same with a reduced army as with a
large one. The number of staff officers
required is more dependent upon the
latter than the former condition.
TUE NAVY
The report of the Secretary of the
Navy, accompanying this, shows the
condition of the Navy when this ad
ministration came into office and the
changes made since. Strenuous efforts
have been made to place as many ves
sels in commission, or render them fit
for service if required, as soon as pos
sible, and to substitute the sail for
steam while cruising, thus materially
reducing the expenses of the Navy,
and adding greatly to its efficiency.
Looking to cur future I recommend a
liberal though not extravagant policy
towards this branch of the public
service.
TUE POSTOFEICE DEPARTMENT
The report of the Postmaster Gen
eral furnishes a clear and comprehen
sive exhibit of the operations of the
postal service, and of the financial
condition of thePostofficeDepartment.
The ordinary postal revenues for the
year ending the 30th of June, 1869,
amount to $18,344,510, and the ex
penditures to $23,689,131, showing an
excess of expenditures over receipts of
$5, 353, 620. The excess of expenditures
over receipts for the previous year
amounted to $6,439,992. The increase
of revenue for 1869 over those ofl 868,
was $0,051,909, and the increase of
ex p en dit ur e s was $967,538. The in
creased-revenue in 1869 exceeded the
increased revenue in 1868 by $997,336,
and the increased expenditures in
1869 was 82,527,570 less than the in
creased expenditures in 1864,showing
by comparison this gratifying feature
of improvement: that while the in
crease of expenditures ever the in
crease of receipts in 1868 was $2,439,-
5.35 the increase of receipts over the
increase of expenditures in 1869 was
$1,084,371. Your attention is respect
fully called to the recommendations
made by the Postmaster General for '
authority to change the rate of come
peesation to the main trunk railroad
lines for their services in carrying the
mails, for having post routes extend
ed, for reorganizing and increasing
the efficiency of the Special agency
service, for increase of the mail ser
vice on the Pacific, and for establish
ing. mail service under the flag of the
Union on the Atlantic, and most es
pecially do I call your attention to his
recommendation for a total abolition
of the franking privilege. This is an
abuse from which no one receives a
commensurate advantage. It reduces
the receipts for postal service from
twen ly-live to thirty per cent., and
largely increases the services to be
1)0i-fanned.
The method by which postage should
be paid upon public matter is set forth
fully in the report of the Postmaster
General.
The report of the Secretary of the
Interior shows that the quantity of
public lands disposed of during the
year ending 30th of June, 1869 was
7,606,152 acres, exceeding that of the
preceding year by 1.010,409 acres. Of
this amount 2,899.544 acres were sold
for cash, and 2,737.365 acres were en
tered under the homestead laws. The
remainder was granted to aid in the
construction of works of internal im
provement appropriated to the States
as stamp land, and located with war—
rants and scrip. The cash receipts
from all sources were $4,472,886, ex
ceeding those of the present year $2,-
840,140. During the last fiscal year
23 ; 196 nameswerc added to the pens
ion rolls! 4,876 dropped therefrom,
leaving at its close 187,963. The
amount paid to pensioners, including
the compensation of disbursing agents
was $28,422,884, an increase of $441,-
192 on that of the previous year. The
munificence of Congress has been con
spicuously manifested in its legisla—
tion for the soldiers and sailors who
suffered in the recent struggle to
maintain that unity of government
which makes us one people. The ad
ditions to the pension rolls of each
successive year since the conclusion of
hostilities result, in a great degree,
from the revealed amendments of the
act of the 14th July, 1862, which ex
tended its provisirms to cases not fall
ing within its original scope, the large
outlay which is thus occasioned is
further increased by the more liberal
allowance bestowed since that date
upon those who, in the line of duty,
were wholly or permanently disabled.
Public opinion has give an emphatic
sanction to these measures of Con—
gress, and it will be conceded that no
part of our public, burden is more
cheerfully borne than that which is
imposed by this branch of the service.
It necessitates for the next fiscal year,
in addition to the amonntjustlyeharg
cable to the naval pension fluid, an
appropriation of thirty million dol—
lars.
During the year ending 30th of
September, 1869, the patent office
issued 13.762 patents, and its receipts
were $685,389, being $213,926 more
than its expenditures. I would re
spectfully call your attention to the
i:ecommendation of the Secretary of
Interior for uniting the duties of
:supervising the education of freed-
Dien with the other duties devolving
upon the Commissioner of Education.
If it is the desire or Congress to
make the census, which must be taken
dining the year 1870 more complete
and perfect than heretofore, I would
suggest early action upon any plan ,
that may be agreed upon. As Con
gress at the last session appointed a
committee to take into consideration
such measures as might be deemed
nreper in reference to the census, and
to report a plan-,----I-desist-from-say=
ino more.
I recommend
._to your "favorable
consideration - the claims of the Agri ,
cultural Bureau for a liberal appro—
priation. In a country so diversified
in climate and soil as ours, and with
a population so largely dependent
upon agriculture, the benefits that can
be conferred by propind`foste:iirig
this Bureau are incalculable.
INADEQUATE SALARIES
I desire respectfully to call the at
tention of Congress to the inadequate
salaries of a number of the most im
portant officers of the Government in
this message. I will not enumerate
them, but will specify only the Justices
of the Supreme Court. No change
has been made in their salaries for
fifteen years. Within that time the
labors of the court have largely in
creased, and the expense of living have
at least doubled. During the same,
Congress has twice found it necessary
to increase largely the compensation
of its own memberi-, and the duty
which it owes to another department
of the Government deserves and will
undoubtedly receive its due considera
tion.
There are many subjects not alluded
to in this message which might with
propriety be introduced, but 1 abstain,
behaving your patriotism and states
m anship7will suggest the topics of leg
islation most conducive to the interests
of the whele people. On my part, I
promise a rigid adherence to the laws
and their strict enforcement.
II S. GRANT.
A Singular Case.
DEATH OF A LADY—REMARKABLE AP
PEARANCE OF THE CORPSE—FEARS
THAT SHE WAS _RIMMED ALIVE.
[From the Portland (Mich.) Advertiser.]
About three weeks ago, the wife of
Dr. E. P. Fuller, living about 2 miles
west of the village,was suddenly taken
ill by violent purging and vomiting,
while taking in an armful of wood from
near the door. The illness was fol
lowed by What the doctor called and
treated as " spinal meningitis," or in
timation of the spine. She,however,
recovered so far that her husband left
home on Friday, the 14th, for the
north part of Montcalm county, to be
absent several days.
Mrs. Fuller's convalescence contin
ued through Friday and Saturday,
she retiring to rest at an early hoar on
Saturday evening, and sleeping until
about 11 o'clock, at which time she
drank some nervine tea, administered
by a sister. At 3 o'clock Sunday morn
ing she arose, and immediately com
plained of great pain in her back, and
fell and instantly expired.
Dr. Fuller was sent for on Sunday
morning, and arrived as soon as possi
ble on Tuesday. The corpse did not,
, however, wear the appearance of
death, but rather of one taking rest in
sleep. A physician called on Sunday
afternoon, and found the lips of the
corpse of a healthy color, ears of a
bright red,and body still warm,though
placed in a room where there was no
fire. There did not appear to be any
stiffness of the limbs, while the pupil
of the eye was full and bright, and the
whole countenance wore the appear
ance of a quiet sleep.
On Monday forenoon two physicians
saw the corpse, which still retained its
remarkable appearance, and on that
afternoon they called into requisition
the use of a galvanic battery, which
produced some softening and pliabil
ity
of the muscles. The lips, ears and
eyes appeared as before, and as bright
as in life. A pressure on the ear
would cause the blood to recede, to
immediately return on the removal of
the pressure. A pressure on the ex
ternal jugular vein also produced the
same result, and almost as quick as
in life. On holding the hand near
the light there was that transparent
pink appearance even to the nails,
which, by the paris college of med
icine, is pronounced an infallible ev
idence of the presence of life.
On Wednesday, at 2 P. M., the
funeral was held, at which time so
strong was the boubt expressed by
the pe,oplewho attended,consequent on
the appearance of the corpse, that the
proper order was finally issued by a
justice of the peace, and about 9 o'
clock of the evening of the day of the
burial the coffin with its contents was
removed to Atchley's ball, which had
been prepared for its reception, and
where it was attended by physicians,
who opened the coffin. But the ap
pearance had changed so materially
since the same physicians had seen
her on Monday that now there was
little doubt that death had occurred.
When exhumation was decided
on there was no opportunity to
inform Dr. Fuller of what was in
tended, as be lived two miles distant,
and it was thought of pressing impor
tance to lose no time in ascertaining
the fact of existence of life. He was,
however, notified the next morning of
the steps taken, and was present until
the final burial on that day, after the
physicans of the village and others
cognizant of the facts had, by the
process of decomposition, become cer
tain of the hopelessness of any further
efforts to restore life.
THERE was a strange 'and startling
scene in a Good Templers' Lodge in
Lexington, Ky., the other night John
W. Alexander, a young man, was
about to be initiated, and as part of
the ceremony, was offered a glass of
water. He drew back with a shudder
and the recollection of the fact that
in August last he was severely bitten
by a dog flashed with terrible in
tensity across his mind. The next day
he was out, but the memory haunted
him and he said to a friend that he
would go home and go to bed and die.
He went home and to bed, and in
spite of drugs and nursing, that hor
rible malady, hydrophobia, rushed
rapidly to its conclusion in death.—
Wednesday afternoon he went into
his first spasm. Wedbes.day night he
foamed at the mouth and yelped as - a
dog, and his paroxysms continued and
grew in intensity. Strong men held
him, and powerful ar,mthetics were
Administered. He begged to be shot
and prayed for death. Thursday about
2 P. N. he died.
Captin Scott-Siddons, of England,
called upon General Sherman Friday
morning, to convey the official notice
that the General liad been elected a
member of the London Army and
NaVy Club. General Sherman, in
polite terms, expressed his acceptance
of the membership:.
WHEN you bury animosity, don't set
up a stone over its grave.

MEDAL AWARDED AT TUE PARIS EX-
In directing attention to the celebrated
COMBINATION BUTTON HOLE AND
SEWING MACHINE, we feel fully warran
ted in claiming for it unquestionable saperi
ortty aver all others as a Family Machine.—
The Simplicity, Ease and Certainty with
which it operates, as well as the uniform ex
cellence of its work, certainly place it far in
advance of any other similar invention of th
age.
It is also the eheapest,intrinsically, as well
as the best, since it is really two machines
corubinedin one, (by s simple and beautiful
mechanical arrangement never before ac
complished by human ingenuity,) making
either the Lock Stitch or Button Hole Stitch,
as occasion may require. - It is, at the same
time, simple in construction, comparatively
noiseless, easily understooi, and, in a word,
it combines with those advantages exclusive
ly its own the most desirable qualities of all
others, for it not only does every variety
of sewing in a snrEnton riasxga, but
in addition OVEESE.VIB splendidly and
makes beautiful BUTTON . and EYELET HOLES
in all fabrics. This is far beyond the ca
pacity of any other machine.
The SPLENDID argcn.titism of this Machine,
and the superior skill workmanship and ma
terials employed in its construction, are a
guarantee of accuracy, strength and dura
bility, and enable the company and its agents
to Warrant Every Machine they sell to give
entire satisfaction.

Among sowing machines, these made by
the Singer Manufacturing Company, rank
with the highest. Their manufacturing ma
chines, have long been known as the best
for - manufacturing purposes. But within
the past few years, they have given special
attention to the production of a
FA _JULY lACRINE,
destined to win nation favor in the

The machine which they now offer is quiet
light-running, simple, fuel, noiseless. Its
aecessotios for
HEMMING, BRAIDING, BINDING,
QUILTING, TUCKING, CORDING,
FELLING, GATHERING,
are simple and easily understood. Ifs deli
cate though enduring and tireless muscles of
iron and steel, do all the work noiselessly,
better, sod few will deny, "Faster than hand
can do it." They urge those wishing to pur
chase a machine, to examine all the other
manufactures before buying, as it will, for
itsel overcome all the objections to the
other machines that can be brought against
it. Machines on hand for sale and exhibi
