tion by Congress of the troliey to le
hi reai'ier adopted in conducting the
eiht lare navy yards and their ex-pMiMvee.-tat.lishment.the
Secretary
advocated the reduction of expend
itures tlierefor to the lowest possible
amounts.
For the purpose of affording the
ofiieers and eeameu of the navy
opportunities for exercise and dis
cipline in their profession under
appropriate control and direction,
the Secretary advises that the light
house bervice and coast survey be
tran-ferred as now organized, from
the I re i-ury to the Navy Depart
ment, and he alo suggests for Jhe
reasons which he assigns that a
similar transfer may wisely be made
of the cruising revenue vessels. The
Secretary forcibly depicts the inti
mate connection" and interdepend
ence of the naval and the commer
cial marine, and invites attention to'
the continued decadence of the lat
ter and the corresponding transfer
of our growing commerce to foreign
bottoms. This subject of one of the
utmost importance to the national
welfare. Methods of reviving Amer
ican ship building and of restoring
the United States flag in the Ocean
carrying trade should receive the
immediate attention of Congress
We have mechanical skill and abun
dant material for the manufacture
of modern iron steamships in fair
competition with our commercial
rivals. Our disadvantage in build
ing ships is the greater cost of labor
and in sailing them, higher taxes
and greater ititereston capital, while
the ocean highways are already mo
nop ilizt-d by our formidable com
petitors. Thpse obstacles should in
some way be overcome and for our
rapid communication . with foreign
lands we should not continue to
depend wLollv upon vet-sels built in
the yards of other countries and
sailinir und-r foreign flags. With
no United Utates i-teamers on the
principal ocean lines or in any for
eign tKirts our facilities for extending
our commerce JTe greatly restricted.
W iile the nations which build, sail
tV ships and carry the mails and
passengers oht iin thereby conspicu
ous advantages in increasing their
trade.
The report of the Postmaster
General gives evidence of the satis
factory condition of this Depart
ment, "and contains tinny valuable
data and accompinying suggestions
which cannot fail to le of interest.
The information which it affords
that the receipts for the fiscal year
have exceeded the expenditures
must be very gratifying to Congress
and to the people of the country.
As matters which may fairly claim
particular attention, 1 reit-r you to
his observations in reference to the
advisability of changing the present
basis for fixing salaries and allow
ances, of extending the money or
der system, and of enlarging the
functionsof the postal establishment
60 as to put under control the tele
graphic system of the country.
Though from this last and most im
portant recommendation I must
withhold my concurrence. At the
last session of Congress several bills
were introduwd in the House of
Representatives for the reduction of
letter postage to the rateot two cent
per half ounce. I have given much
study and reflection to this subject,
and am thoroughly persuaded that
such a reduction would be for the
best interests of the pulwUe, It has
been the policy of the Government
from its foundation to defray, as far
as possible, the exitenses of carry
ing the mails by a direct tax in the
form of postage. It has never been
claimed, however, that this service
ought to be productive of a revenue.
As has leen stated already, the re
port of the Postmaster General
shows that there is nciy a very con
siderable surplus in his department,
and that henceforth the receipts are
not likelv to increase at a much
greater ratio than the necessary ex
peditures. Unless some change is
made in tiie existing laws the profits
of the postal service will, in a vtrv
few years, swell the revenues of the
Government many millions of dol
lars. The time seems auspicious
therefore for some reductbni in the
rates of ostage. In what shall that
reduction consist? A review of the
legislation which has been bad upon
this subject during the past il.im
years diecloses that domestic !-tt-rs
constitute the only class of mail
matter which has never lrn favored
ty a substantial reduction of rates.
1 am convinced that the burden of
maintaining the servioe faHs most
unequally upon that elass, and that
more llian any other it is entitled to
present rJief. That such relief may
be extended without detriment to
other public inter sts will be discov
ered upon review ing the results of
Jorauer reduction. Immediately
prior to the act of 1845 the jostage
upon a letter como8d f a single
sheet was as follows: If conveyed
30 miles or less 6 cents, betweeo 30
and 80 miles 10 cent, between 80
and 150 miles 12 J cents, between
150 mid 400 miles 18 cents, over
400 miles 25 cents. By the act of
lI4- the postage upon a single letter
conveyed for any distance under 300
milts was fixed at 5 cent, and for
any greater distance at 10 cent. By
the act of 1S51, it was provided that
a single letter prepaid should be
carried adi6tance not exceeding three
thousand miles for three cents, and
any greater distance for fix cents.
Jt will be noticed that both of these
reductions were of a radical charac
ter and relatively quite as important
as that which is now proposed. In
each case there ensued a temporary
loss of revenue, but a sudden and
large influx of business which sub-
Btantially replaced the loas witbjnj
three years. Unless the experience
of past legislation in this country
and elsewhere goes for naught, it
may le safely predicted that the
stimulus of oi) per centum reduc
tion in the tax for carriage would at
once increase the number of letters
consigned to the mail. The advan
tages of secrecy would lead to a very
general sulstitutiou of sealed packets
fortxtstal cards and ojen circulars,
and in divers other ways the volume
of first class matter would be enor
mously augmented. Such an in
crease amounted in England in the
first year after the adoption of penny
Mtage to more than 123 er cent.
As a result of careful estimates, the
details of which cannot be here set
out, I have become convinced that
the deficiency of the first year after
the promised reduction would not
exceed 7 tier cent, of the exoendi
tures or 3,U0O,(JUO, while the deti
tiency, af.er the reduction of 1S4 .
Wis more tlj;i 14 per cent, and
after that of l-S-51 was 27 per cent
Another intending cmnp itison
ntf.mled by statistics fun. ishtd me
by the Post office Department. The
act of 1S45 was passed in face ol
the fact that there existed a deficien
cy of more than 1 30,XX). That of
lSol was etiC uraged by the slight
urplus of 6i:2,tXW. The excels of
revenue in the next fiscal year is
likely to be 8350,000. If Congress
should approve these suggestions it
may be deemed desirable to supply
to some extent the deficiency which
must fora time result by increasing
the charge for carrying merchandise
which is now only sixteen cents per
pound. Uut even without such an
increase 1 am confident that the re
ceipts under the diminished rates
would equal the ex penditures after
the lapse of three or four yearg.
The reKrt of the Department of
Justice brings anew to your notice
the necessity of enlarging the pres
ent system of Federal jurisprudence
so as effectually to answer the re
quirements of the ever increasing
litigation with which it is called
upon to deal. The Attorney Gen
eral renews the suggestions of his
predecessor that in the interests of
justice better provision-than the ex
isting law affords should be made
in certain judicial districts for fixing
the fees of witnesses.
In my message of December last
I refered to ending criminal pro
ceedings growing out of alleged
frauds in what is known as the Star
route service of the Postoflice De
partment, and advised you that I
had enjoined upon the Attorney
General and associate counsel, to
whom the interests of the Govern
ment were entrusted, the duty of
prosecuting with the utmost vigor
of the law all erson8 who might be
found chargeable with those offenses.
A trial of one of these cases has
since occurred. It occupied for
many weeks the attention of the
Supreme Court of this district, and
was conducted with great zeal and
ability. It resulted in a disagree
ment of the jury, but the cause has
leen again placed upon the calendar
and will shortly be retrnd. If any
guilty persons shall finally escae
punishment for their offenses, it will
not be tor lack of diligent and earn
est efforts on the part of the prose
cution. I trust that some agreement may
lie reached which will speedily ena
ble Congress, with the concurrence
of the Kxecutive, to afford the com
mercial community the benefits of a
national bankrupt law.
The report of the Secretary of the
InUrior, with iU accompanying
documents, presents a full statement
of the varied oerations of that
department. In resject to Indian
affairs nothing has occurred which
has changed or seriously modified
the views to which I devoted much
space in a former communication to
Ccngress. I renew the recommend
ations therein contained as to ex
tending to the Indian the protection
of the law, alloting lands in severalty
to such as desire it, and making
suitable provision for the education
of the Indian youth. Such provi
sion the Secr-tary forcibly main
tains will prove unavailing unless it
is broad enough to include all those
who are able and willing to make
use of it, and should not solely relate
to intellectual training, but also to
instruction in such manual labor
and simple industrial art as can be
mde practically available. Among
other important subjects which are
included within the Secretary s re
port, and which will doubtless fur
nisb occasion for Congressional ac
tion, may b mentioned the neirlect
of the railroad companies to which
large grants of lands are made by
the acta of 1S62 and g64 to take
title thereto, and their consequent
inequitable exemption from loca
taxation. No survey of our materia!
condition can fail to suggest inquiries
as to the moral and intellectual pro
gress of the people. The census
returns disclose an alarming state of
illiteracy to certain portions of the
country where the provision of the
schools is grossly inadequate. It is
a momentous question for the d
cision of Congress, whether jmmedi
ate and ubstantial aid should not
be extended by the General Govern
ment fr supplementing the effort
ol pnvate benefieiencies of State
and Territorial legislation in behalf
of educaon.
The regulative of inter-State com
meice has already len the subject
ofvour del iterations. One of the
incidents of the marvelous extetlon
of therajlwav svstem of the countrv
has been the adoption of such mea
sures by the corporations which owe
or control the roads a lias tended
to impair the advantages of health
ful compeion and to make hurtful

ed, to the limit of theif own territory.
So far as such michiefs afflict com
merce between the States. as be ween
any one of the States and a fireign
country, they are subjects of nation
al camera, and Congress alone can
anora relief.
The resulU which have thus far
attended the enforcement of the re
cent statute for the oupeasion of
polygamy in the Tern tor ie ate re-
jxirted by the Secretary of the inte
rior. It si not probable that any
additional legislation i: this regard
will le deetued desirable until thp
effect of existing Ums shall le more
closely ol .served and studied. I
congratulated you that the commis
sioners under whose supervision
these laws have been put in opera
tion are encouraged to believe that
theevil at which tltey are aimed may
be suppressed with resort to such
radical measures as in some quarters
have been thought indispensable for
success. The close relation of the
General Government to the Territo
ries preparing to be great States may
well engage your special attention.
It is there that the Imdian disturb-
anofHi mainlv nnnr ! . t
my has found room for its growth!
I cannot doubt that a careful survey
of Territorial legislation would b of
the highest utility. Life and prop
erty would become more secure; the
liability of outbreaks between In
dians and whites would be lessened;
the public domain would be more
securely cuarded, and better pro
gress be made ia the instruction of
the young.
Alaska is still without any form
of civil government If means were
provided for the education of its
leople and for the protection of their
lives and property, the immense re
sources of the region would invite
permanent settlements and open
new fields fur industry and enter
prise. The report of the Commissioner
of Agriculture presents an account
of the labors of that department
during the past year, and includes
information of much interest to the
general public. The condition of
the forests of the country and the
wasteful mat.mriit which thtir de
-trucllon is taking place, give eati-e
lor serious apprt heni-ion. Their
action in protecting tin; earth s i-ur
lace, in iin"lif ing 'he exiieunsof
climate and in regulating and sus
ttining the flow of springs and
stret n.8, is now well undersbxnl,
and their importance in relation to
the growth and prosperity of the
country cannot be a!'ely disregard
ed. They are fast disappearing be
fore destructive fires and legitimate
requirements of our increasing pop
ulation, and their total extinction
connot Ik-long delayed unless better
methods than now prevail shall be
adopted for their protection and
cultivation. The attention of Con
gress is invited to the necessity of
additional legislation to secure the
preservation of the valuable forests
remaining on the public domain es
jecially in the extreme western
States and Territories, where the
necessity for their preservation is
greater than in less mountainous
regions, and where the prevailing
dryness of the climate renders their
restoration, if they are once destroy
ed, well nigh impossible.
The communication which I made
to Congress at its first session in
December last contained a some
what full statement of my sentiments
in relation to the principles and
rules which ought to govern appoint
ments to public service. Referring
to the various plans which had
theretofore ben the stsbjeet of dis
cussion m the National legisla
ture, plans which, in the main, were
modeled upon the sy6tetu which
obtains in Great Britain, but which
lacked certain of the nrominent feat
ures whereby that svstem is distin
guished, I felt bound to intimate my
doubts whether they or any of them
would afford adequate remedy for
the evils which they aimed to cor
rect. I declare nt vertheless, that if
the proposed measures should prove
acceptable to Congress, they would
receive the unhesitating support of
the hxecutive. Since these suggest
ions were submitted for your con
sideration there has been no legisla
tion upon the subject to winch they
relate, but there has meanwhile been
an increase in the public interest in
that subject, and the people of the
country, apparently without distinc
tion ot party, have in various w?vs
and upon frequent occasions givei
expression to their earnest wish fur
prompt atid definite action. In ttty
opinion such action should no Ion
ger lie dela ved. I iiihv add thatmv
own sense of its pressing importance
has been quickened by observation
of a practical phase of the matter, to
which attention has more than once
been called by my predecessors
The civil list now comprises alout
one hundred thousand ersons, the
larger part of whom mustunder the
terms of the Constitution, be select
ed by the President, either directly
or through hu own appointment
In the early years of the adminis
tration of the Government, the per
sonal direction of appointments to
civil service may not have been an
irksome task for the Executive, but
now that the burden has increased
fully a hundred fold it haa become
greater than he ought to bear, and it
necessarily diverts his time and at
tention from the proper discharge of
other duties no less delicate and re
sponsible, and which in the very
nature of things cannot be delegated
to others hands. In the judgment
of not a few who have given study
ana reuecuon to mis matter, the
nation has outgrown the provision
which the Constitution has establish
ed for filling the minor offices in the
public service. I3ut whatever may
be thought of the wisdom or expedi
ency of changing the fundamental
law in this regard, it is certain that
much relief may be afforded not on
ly to .the President and to the heads
of the departments but to Senators
and Kepresentatiyes ;n Congress, by
discreet legislation. They tfpuld be
protected in a great measure by the
bill now pending before the Senate,
or by any other which should em
body its important features, from
the i ressure of personal imiartunitv
and from the labor of examining
conflicting claims and pretensions
of candidates. 1 trust that before
the close of the present session 6ome
decisive action may be taken lor
the correction of Uje evils which in
here in the present method of ap
pointment, and I assure you ol tuy
hearty coo ration in any measures
which are likely to conduce to that
end. As to the most appropriate
U rai and tenure of the official life of
thfi subordinate employees of the
Government, it seems to be generally
agreed that whatever their extent or
character, the one ahokU he definite
and the other stable, and thalntjt

service of party or fidelity to the
fortunes of an individual. It mat

office and ajipoioied another in his
tead. It has ,teen reiieytedlv al-
fgrd that he has in this narUcular
signally departed from the 'cours
which has been pursued under other
administmtions of the Government
The facts are as follows : The whole
num ler of Executive atiiK)intineiits.i
during the" four years immediately I
preceeding Mr. Garfield's arcession i
to the Presidency, was 2,996.
Of i
this number 244, or 9 per cent, in
volved the removal of previous in
cumbents. The ratio of removals to
the whole number of appointments
was much the same during each of
these four years. In the first year,
with 7U0 appointments, there were
4 removals, or v.6 per cent; in tue
second, with 917 appointments,
there were 8o removals, or So per
cent; in the third, with 480appomt-
ments, there were 4$ removals, or
10 per cent; in the fourth, with 420
appointments, there were 61 remov
als. or 8.6 per cent In the four
months of President Garfield's ad
ministration there were 3J0 appoint
ments auc 89 removals, or 22.7 per
cent Precisely the same number of
removals, H'J, have taken place in
the fourteen months which have
since elapsed, but they constitute
only 7.o' ier cent of the whole num
tier of appointment, 118, within the
ieriod. and less that 2 t ier cent, of
the entire list of officials, 3,459, ex
clusive of the army and navy, which
is tilled by Presidential uppjint
meiils. 1 decuro my approval oi eucn
legislation as may be found ntce&s.t
ry for supplementing the existing
provisions of law in relation to po
litical assessments. In July last I
authorized a public announcement
that employees of the Government
should regard themselves as at liber
ty to exercise their pleasure in mak
ing or refusing to make political
contributions, and that their action
in that regard would in no manner
affect their official statues. In this
announcement 1 acted upon the
view which 1 had always maintained
and' still maintain, that a public
officer should be as absolutely free
as another citizen to give or withhold
a contribution for the aid of the
political party of his choice. It has,
however, been urged, and doubtless
not without foundation in fact, that
by solicitation of sueriors and by
other modes, such contributions
have been obtained from persons
whose only mative for giving has
been the fear of what might befall
them if they refu.-ed. It goes with
out saying that such contributions
re not voluntary, and in my judg
ment their collection should be pro
hibited by law. A bill which will
effectually suppress them will re
ceive my cordial approval. I hope
that, however numerous and urgent
may be the demands upon your at
tention, the interests of this District
will not be forgotten. The denial to
its residents of the great right of
suffrage in all the relations of Na
tional, State and municipal action,
imposes UKn Congress the duty of
affording them the best administra
tion which its wisdom can devise.
The report of the District Commis
sioners indicates certain measures
whose adoption would seem to be
very desirable. I instance in par
ticular those which relate to arrears
of taxes, to steam railroads and to
assessments on real property.
Among the questions which have
!een the topic of recent debate in
the halls of Congress, none are of
greater gravity then those relating
to the vote for Presidential electors,
and the intention of the Constitution
in its provisions for devolving exe
cutive functions upon the Vice Pres
ident, when the President suffered
from inability to discharge the pow
ers and duties of his office. I tru-t
that no embarrassments may result
from a failure to determine these
questions before another National
election.
The closing year has lcen replete
with blessings, for which we owe to
the Giver of all Good our reverent
acknowledgments. For the uninter
rupted harmony of our foreign rela
tions, for the decay of sectional ani
mosities, for the exuberance of our
harvests, and the triumphs of our
mining and manufacturing indus
tries, for the prevalence of health, the
spread of inte'ligence and the con
servation of the public credit, for
the growth of the country in all the
elements of National greatness : for
these and countless other blessings,
we should rejoice and be glad.
trust that under the inspiration of
this great prosperity our councels
may be harmonious, and that the
dictates of prudence, patriotism.
justice and economy may lead to
the adoption of measures in which
the Congress and the Executive may
heartily unite.

Who is this ferocious looking man ?
He is foreman in a Printing-office.
Hegets Paid for Throwing Men down
Stairs when they Come to Lick the
Editor, and Putting Wrong Dates at
the Head of the Pajver. He can Pi
more type in fifteen Minutes than
Seven Printers can set up in Two
weeks. If it Were imt f..r Him the
P;iper would look pretty well every
Week. Everything would br fit and
none of the Live Adds would be left
out.

to remark that the time when a
young woman needs twenty tons of
coal w during the courtship. Alter
that the young man, unless he is
entirely destitute of relations, ia
