The report of the Post Maetir General
prints r most eatisfrcfery cucdition of
the postal tervlce, hnd submits rcootamen
Ufctiona which deserve tbe consideration of
Congress. The revenues of the Depart
2Tt for the year ending Juno CO, 1866,
wrre $14,330,986, and the expenditures
$15,362,079, showing an excess of the
latter of &UGo,093. la anticipation of
this deficiency, however, a special appro
priation was made by Congress in the act
np proved July 23 1SGG. Including the
Handing appropriation of $700,000 for
free mail matter as a legitimate portion
of thtj revenues yet remaining unexpended,
the actual deficiency for the past year is
only 262,093, a sum within $ol,14l or
tbe amount estimated in the annual re
port of 1 8C4. The decrease of revenue
compared with the previous year was one
Rni one-fifth per cent., aad the increase
of expenditures, owing; principally to the
enlargement of the mail service of the
South, was twelve per cent. On the 20th
of June last there were in operation six
thousand nine hundred arid thirty mail
routes, with an aggregate length af one
hundred and eighty thousand nine hun
dred aad twenty-one miles, an aggregate
annual transportation of seventy-one mill
ion eight hundred and fourteen miles, and
an aggregate annual cost, including all
expenditures, of $8,410,143. The length
of railroad routes ia thirty-two thousand
ami nioety-twe miles, and the annual
transportation thirty million six hundred
aad sine thousand four hundred and sixty
n;m miles. The length of steamboat
routes it fourteen thousand three hundred
and forty-six miles, and the annual trans
portation three million four hundred and
!aven thousand nine hundred and sixty
two miles. The mail service is rapidly
increasing throughout the whole country,
and its uteady extension in the Southern
States indicates their constantly improving
condition. The growing importance ef
the foreign service also merits attention.
The l'ost Offica Department of Great
Kritian and our own have agreed upon a
preliminary basis for a new Postal Con
vention, which it is believed will prove
emiaently beneficial to the commercial
interests of the United States, inasmuch
it contemplates a reduction of the in
ternational letter postage to enc-half the
existing rates ; a reduction of postage with
all other countries to and from which cor
respondence is transmitted in Ike ISrilish
m.iil, or in closed mails through the Uni
ted Kingdom ; the establishment of uni
form and reasonable charges for the sea
and territorial traasitof correspondence in
closed mails ; and an allowance to each
Post Office Department of the right to use
all mail communications established under
the authority of the other fur the dispatch
of correspondence, either in open or closed
mail., en the same terms as those applica
ble to the inhabitant of the country pro
viding the means ef transmition.
scssTasr browning's kxuibit rou the
IMTEBIOR.
The report of the Secretary of the In
terior exhibits the -condition of those
branches of the public service which are
committed to his supervision. During
the last fiscal year four millions nix hun
dred and twenty-nine thousand three hun
dred and twelve acres of public land were
disposed of, one millica eight hundred r.nd
ninety-two thousand five hundred and
sixteen ::cres of which were entered undr
the homestead act. The policy originally
adopted relative to tLu public hinds has
undergone essential modification. Im
mediate revenue, and not their rapid
settlement, was the cardinal feature of
our land system. Long experience and
earnest discussion have resulted in the
conviction that the earlyo development of
our agricultural resourcs, and the diffu
ion of an energetic population over our
vast territory, ari objects of far greater
importance to the national growth and
prosperity than the proceed of the sale of j
the land to the highest bidder in open
market. The pre-emption laws confer
upon the pioneer who complies vrth the
terms they impose, the privilcgo of pur
chasing a limited portion of 'noffered
hind" at the minimum price. The home
Head enactments relieve the settler from
the payment of purchase money, and se
cure him a permanent home, upon the
condition of residence for a term of years.
This liberal policy invites emigration from
tke old, and from the more crowded por
tions ot the new world. Its propitious
results are undoubted, and will bo more
eignally manifested when time shall have
given to it a wider development.
Congress has made liberal grants of
public lands to corporations, in aid of the
construction of railroads and other inter
nal improvements. Should this policy
hereafter prevail, more stringent provisions
will be required to secure a faithful appli
cation of the fund. The title to the lands
should aet pass, by patent or otherwise,
but remain in the Government and subject
to its control until some portion of the
road has been actually built. Portions
of them might then, from time to time, be
conveyed to the corporation, but never in
greater ratio to the whole quantity em
praccd by the grant than the completed
parts bear to the entire lenjiUi of the pro
jected improvement. The restriction
would nt operate to the prejudice of an
undertaking conceived in good faith and
executed with reasonable cuery, as it is
the nettled practice to withdraw from mar
kft the landi falling n jthin lh operation
of such grants, and thus to exclude the
inception of a subsequent adverse right.
A breach of the conditions which Con
gress may deem proper to impose should
work a forfeiture of claim to the lands so
withdrawn but unconveyed, and of title
to the lands conveyed which remain un
sold. the r.vcirco kailkoad.
Operations on the several lines of the
Pacific Railroad have been prosecuted
with unexampled vigor and success.
Should no unforeseen causes of delay oc
cur, it is confidentially anticipated that
this fy-uat thoroughfare will be completed
befure the expiration of the period desig
nated by Congress.
PAYMENT OF PENSIONS.
During the last fiscal year the amount
paid to pensioners, including the expenses
of disbursement, was thirteen millions
four hundred and fifty-nine thousand nine
hundred and ninety-six dollars, and fifty
thousand one hundred and seventy-seven
names were added to the pension rolls. The
entire number of pensioners, June 30, 1866,
was one hundred and twenty-six thousand
seven hundred and twenty-two. This fact
furnishes melancholy and striking proof of
the sacrifices made to vindicate the con
stitutional authority of the Federal Gov
ernment, and to maintain inviolate the
integrity of the Union. They impose
upon us corresponding obligation. It is
estimated that thirty-three million dollars
will be required to meet the exigencies of
this branch of tbe service during the next
fiscal year.
TBEATItt WITH THE INDIANS.
Treaties have been concluded with tbe
Indians, who, enticed into armed opposi
tion to our Government at the outbreak of
the rebellion have unconditionally submit
ted to our authority, and manifested an
earnest desire for a renewal of friendly
relations.
TUB PATENT OFFICE.
During the year ending September 30,
I860, eight thousand seven hundred and
sixteen patents for useful inventions and
designs were issued, and at that date the
balance in the Treasury to the credit of
the patent fund was two hundred and
twenty-eight thousand two hundred and
ninety-seven dollars.
THE MISSISSIPPI LEVEK3.
As a subject upon which depends an
immense amount of production and com
merce of the country, I recommend to
Congress sucli legislation as may be nec
essary for the preservation of the levees of
the Mississippi river. It is a matter of
national importance that early steps should
bo taken not only to add to the efficiency
ef these barriers against destructive inun
dations, but for the removal of all obstruc
tions to the free and safe navigation of
that great channel of trade and commerce, i
UtPRFJENTATION FOB. THE DISTRICT OF
COLUMBIA.
The District of Columbia, nnder exist
ing laws is not entitled to that representa
tion in the National Councils which, from
our earliest history, has been uniformly
accorded to each Territory established
from time to time within our limits. It
maintains peculiar relations to Congress,
to whom the Constitution has granted the
power of exercising legislation over the
scat of government. Our fellow-citizens
residing in the District, whose interests are
thus confided to the epecial guardianship
of Congress, exceed in uumber the popu
lation of several of our Territories, and
no just reason is perceived why a delegate
of their choice should not be admitted to a
sj.it in the House of Representatives. No
mode seems so appropriate and effectual
of enabling them to make known their
peculiar condition and wants, and secu
ring the local legislation adapted to them.
I, therefore, recommend the passage of a
taw authorizing the electors ofllie District
of Columbia to choose a delegate, to be
allowed the same rights and privileges as
a delegate representing a Territory. The
increasing enterprise and rapid progress of
improvement in the District are highly
gratifying, and I trnst that the efforts of
the municipal authorities to promote the
prosperity of the national metropolis will
receive the efficient and generous co-operation
of Congress.
AGUICCLTTKK.
The report of the Commissioner of
Agriculture reviews the operations of his
Department during the past year and asks
the aid of Congress in his efforts to en
courage those States which, scourged by
war, are now earnestly engaged in the
reorganization of domestic industry.
CAUSE FOR CONGRATULATION.
It is a subject of congratulation that no
foreign combinations against our domestic
peace and safety, or our legitimate influ
ence among the nations, have been formed
or attempted. While sentiments of recol
lection, loyalty and patriotism have in
creased at home, a more just coasideration
of our national character and rights has
been manifested by foreign nations.
THE ATLANTIC CABLE.
The entire success of the Atlantic Tel
egraph between the coast of Ireland and
the province of New Foundland, is an
achievement which has justly been cele
brated in both hemisphere's as the opening
of an era in the progress of civilization.
There i reason to expect that equal suc
cess will attend, and even greater results
follow, the enterprise for connecting the
two continents through the Pacific -ocean
tylbe projected line of telegraph between
Kampschatka and the Russian possessions
in America.
EMIGRATION OF FOREIGN CONVICTS. .
The resolution of Congress protesting
against pardons by foreign governments of
persons convicted of infamous offences, on
condition of emigration to our country,
has been communicated to the States with
which we maintain intercourse, and the
practice, so justly the subject of comolaint
on our part, has not been renewed.
CONGRESS AND THE EMPEROR OK RUSSIA.
The congratulations of Congress to the
Emperor of Russia, upon his escape from
attempted assassination, hare been pre
sented to that humane and enlightened
ruler, and received by him with expres
sions of grateful appreciation.
EMIGRATION OF FREEDMEN TO FOREIGN
LANDS.
The Executive, warned of an attempt
by Spanish-American adventurers to in
duce the emigration of freedraen of the
United States to a foreign country, pro
tested against the project as one wlych, if
consummated, would reduce them to a
bondage even more oppresive than that
from which they have just been relieved.
Assurance has been received from the
Government of the State in which the plan
was matured, that the proceeding will
meet neither its encouragement nor appro
val. It is a question worthy of your
consideration, whether our laws upon this
subject are adequate to the prevention or
punishment of the crime thus meditated.
OCR RELATIONS WITH FBAMCfc AND MEXICO.
In the month of April last, as Congress
is aware, a friendly arrangement was made
between tbe Emperor of France and the
President of tbe United States for the
withdrawal from Mexico of the French
expeditionary military forces. This with
drawal was to be effected in three detach
ments, the first of which, it was under
stood, would leave Mexico in November,
now past, the second in March next, and
the third and last in November, 1867.
Immediately upon the completion of the
evacuation, the French Government was
to assume the same attitude of non-intervention,
in regard to Mexico, as is held by
the Government of the United States.
Repeated assurances have been given by
the Emperor, since that agreement, that
he would complete the promised evacua
tion within the period mentioned, or sooner.
MINISTER CAMPBELL AND LIEUT. GENERAL
SHERMAN.
It was reasonably expected that the
proceedings thus contemplated would
produce a crisis of great political interest
in the Republic of Mexico. The newly
appointed Minister of the United States,
Mr. Campbell, was therefore scut forward
on the 9th day of November - last, to
assume his proper functions as Minister
Plenipotentiary of the United States to
that Republic. It was also thought expe
dient that be should be attended in the
vicinity of Mexico by the Lieutenant Gen
eral of the Army of the United States,
with the view of obtaining such informa
tion as might be important to determine
the policy ot the United States in re-establishing
and maintaining necessary and
proper intercourse with the Republic of
Mexico. Deeply interested in the cause
of liberty and humanity, it seemed ; an
obvious duty on our part to exercise
whatever influence we possessed for the
restoration and permanent establishment
in that country of a domestic and republi
can form of government.
NAPOLEON "GOES BACK." ON HIS WORD.
Such was the condition of affairs in
regard to Mexico, when, on the 22d of
November last, official information was
received from Paris that the Emperor of
France had some time before decided not
to withdraw a detachment of his forces in
the month of November past, according
to engagement, but that this decision was
made with the purpose of withdrawing
the whole force in the ensuiug spring.
Of this determination, however, the Uni
ted States had not received any notice or
intimation ; and as soon as the informa
tion was received by the Government,
cars was taken to make known its dissent
to the Emperor of France.
I cannot forego the hope that. France
will reconsider the subject, and adopt some
resolution in regard to the evacuation of
Mexico which will conform as nearly as
practicable with the existing engagement,
and thus meet the just expectations of the
United States. The papers relating to the
subject will be laid before you. It is
believed that with the evacuation of Mex
ico by the expeditionary forces, no subject
for serious differences between France and
the United States would remain. The
expressions of the Emperor and the people
oi r ranee warrant a nope that the tradi
tionary friendship between the two coun
tries might in that case be renewed and
permanently restored.
ADJUSTMENT OF CLAIMS FOR INDEMNITY.
A claim of a citizen of the United States
for indemnity for spoliations committed on
the high seas by the French authorities,
in the exercise of a beligerent power
against Mexico, has been met by the
Government of France with a proposition
to defer settlement until a mutual con
vention for the adjustment of all claims
of citizens and subjects of both countries,
arising out of the recent wars on this
continent, shall be agreed upon by the two
countries. The suggestion is not deemed
unreasonable, but it belongs to Congress
to direct the manner in which claims for
indemnity by foreigners, as well as by the
citizens of the United States, arising out
of the late civil war, shall be adjudicated
and determined. I have no doubt that
the subject of all such claims will enae
DO
your attention at a convenient and proper
time.
THE UNITED STATES AND GREAT BRITIAN.
It is a matter of regret that no consid
erable advance has been made towards an
adjustment of the differences between the
United States and Great Britian, arising
out of the depredations on our national
commerce and other trespasses committed
during our civil war by British subjects,
in violation of international law and treaty
obligations. The delay, however, may
be believed to have resulted in no small
degree from the domestic situation of
Great Britian. An entire change of min
istry occurred in that country during the
last session of Parliament. The attention
of the new ministry was called to the sub
ject at an early day, and there is some
reason to expect that it will bow be con
sidered in a becominsr and friendlv snirit.
The importance of an early disposition of
ot.tne question cannot be exaggerated.
Whatever might be the wishes of the two
Governments, it is manifest that good-will
and friendship between the two countries
cannot be established until a reciprocity,
in the practice of good faith and neutrality,
shall be restored between the respective
nations. -
THE FENIAN AFFAIR OF LAST JUNE.
On the Cth of June last, in violation of
our neutrality laws, a military expedition
and enterprise against the British North
American colonies was projected and
attempted to be carried en within the
territory and jurisdiction of the United
States. In obedience to the obligation
imposed upon the Executive by the Con
stitution to see that the laws are faithfully
executed all citizens were warned by proc
lamation, against taking part in or aiding
sueh unlawful proceedings, and the proper
civil, military and naval officers were
directed to take all necessary measures
for the enforcement of the laws. The ex
pedition failed, but it has not been with
out its painful consequences. Some of our
citizens who, it was alleged, were engaged
in the expedition, were captured and have
been brought t trial, as for a capital of
fense, in the province of Canada. Judg
ment, and sentence of death have been
pronounced against some while others
have been acquitted. Full believing in the
maxim of government that severity of civil
punishment for misguided persons who
have engaged in revolutionary attempts
which disastrously failed, is unsouad rnd
unwise such representatives have made to
the British government, in behalf of the
convicted persons, as, being sustained by
an enlightened and humane judgment, will,
it is hoped, induce in the cases an exercise
of clemency, and a judicious amnesty to
all who were engaged in the movement.
Counsel has been employed by the Gov
ernment to defend citizens of the United
States on trial for capital offenses in Can
ada, and a discontinuance of the prosecu,
tions which were instituted in the courts
of tbe United States againts those who
ook part in the expedition has been direc
ted. nOW THE PRESIDENT VIEWS THE SUBJECT.
I have regarded the expedition as not
only political in its nature, put as also in
a great measure foreign from the United
Stales in its causes, character and objects.
The attempt was understood to be made
in sympathy with an insurgent party in
Ireland, and, by striking at a British Pro
vince on this continent, was designed to
aid in obtaining redress for political grie
vances, which, it was assumed, the people
of Ireland had suffered at the hands of the
British Government, during a period of
several centuries. The persons engaged in
it were chiefly natives cf that country,
some of whom had while others had not,
become citizens of the United States under
our general laws of naturalization. Com
plaints misgovernment in Ireland contin
ually engage the attention of the British
nation and so great an agitation is now
prevailing in Ireland that the British gov
ernment have deemed it necessary to sus
pend the writ of habeas corpus in that conn
try. These circumstances must necessa
rily modify the opinion which we might
otherwise have entertained in regard to an
expedition expressly prohibited by our neu
trality laws. So long as those laws remain
upon our statute books, they should be
faithfully executed; nnd if they operate
harshly, unjustly or oppressively, Congress
alone can apply the remedy; by their mod
ification or repeal.
A REPRESENTATION WASTED FOR GREECE.
Political and commercial interests of
the United States are not unlikely to be
affected in some degree by events that are
transpiring in the eastern regions of Eu
rope, and the time c mi to have come
when our Government ought to have a
proper diplomatic representation in
Greece.
Till RIGHT OF SELF-EXPATRIATION.
This Government has claimed for all
persons not convicted, or accused, or sus
pected of crime, an apsolute political
right of self-expatriation, and a choice of
new national allegiance. Most of the
European States have dissented from this
principle, and have claimed a right to
hold such of their subjects as have immi
grated to and been naturalized in the
United States, and afterwards returned on
transient visits to their native countries, to
the performance of military service in like
wanner as resident subjects. Complaints
arising from the claim in this respect
made by foreign States, have heretofbre
been matters of controversy between -the
United States and some of the European
Powers, and the irritation consen??pt
upon the failure to settle this question in
creased during the war in which Pruesin,
Italy and Austria were recently engaged.
While Great Britian has never acknowl
edged the right of expatriation, she has
not practically insisted upon it. France
has been equally forbearing, and Prussia
has proposed a compromise, which, al
though invincing incrersej liberality, has
not been accepted by the United States.
Peace is now prevailing everywhere in
Europe, and the present seems to be a
favorable time for assertion by Congress
of the principle, so long maintained by the
Executive Department, that naturalization
by one State fully exempts the native
born subject of any other State from the
performance of military service under any
foreign government, so long as he does
not voluntarily renounce its rights and
benefits.
A TRYING ORDIAL
In the performance of a duty imposed
upon me by tbe Constitution, I have thus
submitted to the Representatives of the
States and of the people, such information
of our domestic and foreign affairs as the
public interests seem to require. Our
Government is now undergoing its most
trying ordeal, and my earnest prayer is
that the peril may be successfully and
finally passed, without impairing its ori
ginal strength and symmetry. The inter
ests of the nation are best to be promoted
by the revival of fraternal relations, the
complete obliteration of our past differen
ces, and tbe reinauguratien of all the pur
suits of peace. Directing our efforts to
the early accomplishment of these great
ends, let us endeavor tc preserve harmony
between the co-ordinate Departments of
the Government, that each in its proper
sphere may cordially co-operate with the
other in securing the maintenance ef the
Constitution, the preservation of the"
Union, and the perpetuity of our free in
stitutions. Andrew Johnson.

The Season of Storms. The blasts
of Autumn and the chiil storms cf ear
ly winter are apt to make sad inroad
upon the cons-titutions i f the feeble. In old
times at the commruc'inent of every Ecasr

as a safeguard against a change of tempera
ture. It was a worse than useless practice.
The people of our t!ay understand the mat
ter better. Instead of dt-pleting the system
they reinforco it. In the methol tbey adopt
they exhibit a wise discrimination. Instead
of resorting tn the vitiated stimulants of
commerce, or any of theenmpouud derived
from them, they put their faith in the only
absolutely pnre inrignrant procurable in the
market TIOSTET TEK'S STOMACH BIT
