The additional legislation recom mended by the Postmaster General for im provement of the mall service, and to pro tect the postal revenues from abuses prac ticed under existing laws, Is respectfully commended to the careful consideration of Congress. REPORT OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL. The report of the Attorney General con tains several suggestions as to the adminis tration of Justice, to \vf ‘ vhleli I invite your at- _ ire of business in the Supreme Court and in certain Circuit Courts of the United States is now such that serious delays, to the great Injury and even oppres sion of suitors, occur, and a remedy should be sought for this condition of ufialrs. Whether it will bo found in the plan briefiy sketched In the report, of increasing the number of Judges ot the Circuit Courts, and by means of this addition to the judicial force, of creating an intermediate Court of t ure consideration. THE INDIANS, The present condition of the Indian tribes on the territory of the United .States, und our relations with them are fully set forth in the reports of the Secretary of the Interior and the Commissioner of Indian Afi'airs. After a series of most deplorable ebnfilcts, the suc cessful termination of which, while reflect ing honor upon the brave soldiers who ac complished it, cannot lessen our regret at their occurrence, we are now at peace with all the Indian tribes within our borders. T preserve that peace by a just and humane policy will be the object of my earnest en deavors. Whatever may be said of their character and savage propensities, of the dlf- lficultles of int roducing among them the hab its of civilized life, and of the obstacles they have offered to the progress of settlement and enterprise in certain parts of the coun try, the Didians are certainly entitled to our sympathy, and to a conscientious respect on our part for their claims upon our sense ol Justice. They were the aboriginal oceu- f >unts of the land we now possess; they lave been driven from place to place; the purchase money paid to them, in some cases, for what they called their own, has still left them poor, in many instances when they had settled down upon land as signed to them by compact, and begun to support themselves by their own labor, they were rudely jostled off aud thrust Into the wilderness again. Many If not most of our Indian wars have had their origlu In broken promises und acta of injustice upon our part, and the advance of the Indians in clviil/.aMon has been slow because the treatment they received did not permit it to be luster und more general, We cannot expect them to improve and to fol low our guidance unless we keep faith with them in respecting the rights they possess, and unless, instead of depriving them ol their opportunities, we lend them a hclpiny hand. 1 cordlully approve the policy re garding the management of Indian affairs outlined In the reports of the .Secretary ol the Interior und of the Commissioner of In dian Affairs. The faithful performance of our promises is the first condition of a good understanding with the Indians. 1 cannot too urgently recommend to Congress that prompt and liberal provision be made for the conscientous fulfillment of ull engage ments entered into by the Government with the Indian tribes, To withhold the means necessary for the performance of a promise Is always fulse economy, and Is apt to prove disastrous in its consequences. Especial care Is recommended to provide for Indians settled on their reservations cattle and agricultural implements to aid them in whatever elforts they make to support themselves, and by flic establishment and maintenance of schools to bring t hem under the control of civilized Influences. 1 see no reason why Indians who cun give satisfac tory proof of having by their own labor supported their own families for a number of years, and who are willing to detach themselves from their tribal relations, should not be admitted to the benefit of the homestead act and the privileges of citizen ship, and I recommend the passage of a law to that effect. It will bean act of Justice as well as a measure of encouragement. Earnest efforts are being made to purify the Indian service so that every dollar aupopri- ated by Congress shall redound to fhe benefit of the Indians us intended. These efforts will have my firm support. With an im proved service, and every possible encour agement held out to the Indians to better their condition and to elevate themselves in tile scale of civilization, we may hope to accomplish at the same time a good work for them and for ourselves. THE TINMF.R LANDS. I invite the attention of Congress to the Importance of the statement and suggest ions made by tlie Secretary of the Interior, concerning the depredations committed upon the timber lands of t he United States and the necessity for the preservation of the forests. It is believed that the measures taken In pursuance of the existing law to arrest these depredations, will be entirely successful, If Congress by an appropriation for that purpose, renders their continued enforcement possible. The experience of other nations touches us that a country can not be stripped of its forests with Impunity, and we shall expose ourselves to the gravest consequences unless the wasteful und im- ? rovldent manner In which the forests in be United Htales are destroyed be effectu ally checked. I earnestly recommend that hors. The final report of tlie board was transmitted to Congress at the last session. As these papers are understood to contain Interesting and valuable information, und constitute the only report emanating from the Government of the subject of the exhi bition, I invite attention to the matter aud recommend that the report be published for general Information. THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. Congress is empowered by tlie Constitution It he the authority of exclusive legislation rer the District ol Columbia, In which the seat of Government of the nation is located. The interests of tlie District having no direct representative In Congress, are enti tled to special consideration and care at the hands of the General Government. Tlio Capital of the United Htates belongs to the nation. It is natural that the American eople should take prhle In the seat of their utlonal Government and desire It to he an ornament to the country. Much lias been done to render It bcuutlftil, convenient and attractive, but much remains to bedone, which its permanent inhabitants arc not able and ought not to be expected to do. To Impose on them a large proportion of the cost required for public improvements which are in a great measure planned ami executed for the convenience of the Gov ernment and of the many thousands of vtal- *'ts from all parts of the country, who tem- irarlly reside In the capital of the nation, an evident injustice, .special attention asked by the Commissioners of tlio l)ls- trlet. in their report, which Is herewith transmitted, to tlio Importance of a perma nent adjustment by Congress of the finan cial relations bet ween the United Htates and the District, Involving the regular annuul •ontributlon by the United Htates of Its proportion of the expenses of the ct government and of the outlay forall needed public improvements, and such measures of relief from the burden of taxa tion now resting on the people of the Dis trict, as, in the wisdom ol Congress, may be deemed Just. The report of the Commis sioners show the afi'airs of the District ure in a condition ns ■satisfactory ns could be ex pected, in view of tlio heavy debt resting upon It and its very limited means for nec essary expenditures. The debt of the Dis trict Is as follows: Old funded debt, 88,870,- 691 96; 8-65 bonds, guaranted by the United Htates, $13,718,850; total bonded debt, 822,122,- 941 96, to which should be added certain out standing claims explained In the report of the Commissioners, $1,182,204 52; making the total debt of the District $28,310,166 48. The Commissioners also ask. attention to the im portance of the Improvement of the Poto mac river and the condition of the marshes bordering the city of Washington, and their views upon this subject are concurred in by the members of the Rout'd of Health, whose report Is also herewith transmitted. Doth the commercial and sanitary interests of the District will be greatly enhanced, I doubt not, by this improvement. Your attention is invited to the suggestion of the Commisloners and of the Hoard of Health for the organization of a Hoard of Charities, to have supervision and control of the disbursement of all moneys for char itable purposes from the District Treasury. I desire, also, to ask your especial attention to the need of adding to the efficiency of the public schools of the District by supple mental aid from the National Treasury. This Is especially Just, since so large a num ber of those attending the schools are the children of employes of the Government. I earnestly commend to your eare the inter ests of the people of the District, to whose enterprise and good order the attractiveness of the capital are largely due, and 1 ask your attention to the request of the Commission ers for legislation In behalf of the Inter ests intrusted to their care. The appropria tions asked for the cure of the reservations ingfl and Grounds arc also commended to your favorable consideration. The report of the Joint commission created by the act approveed August 22, 1876, enti tled “An Act providing for the comple tion of the Washington monument," Is herewith transmitted, with accompar ’ documents. The board of engineer of detailed to examine the monument, in )1 lance with the second section of the act, reported that the foundation is Insul- ' igex llity the Interior for l Tension of depreda tions on the public timEer lands of the Uni ted States, for tlie selling of timber from the public lands and for the preservation of the forests be embodied In a law, and that, con sidering the urgent necessity of enabling the people of certain States ami Territories to purchase lumber from the public lands in a legal manner, which at present they can not do, such law should be passed without unavoidable delay. I would also call the attention of Congress to the statements made by the Secretary of the Interior, con eernlng the dta of the desert la 100th meridian. These bincts are practically unsaleable under the existing laws, and the question is worthy of considerate action. A system of leasehold tenure would make H 1 ® 1 * 1 a of profit to the United Htates, while at the same time legalizing the husi- ness of cattle raising which is at present carried on upon them.

The present un finished condition of the monument, begun o long ago. is a reproach to the nation. It ‘annul be doubted that the patriotic sense of the country will mainly respond to such prompt provision as muy be made for its completion at an early day. and 1 urge upon •-ligress the propriety ana necessity oflm- HUate legislation for this purpose. PUBLIC EDUCATION. The wisdom of legislation upon the part of hools of the country „ tlon. The intelligent, judgment of the country goes still further, regarding it as also both constitutional and expedient for the General Government to extend to tech nical and higher education such aid as is deemed essential to the general welfare and to our prominence among the enlightened und cultured nations of the world. The ul timate settlement of all questions of the future, whether of administration, or fi nance, or true nationality of sentiment, depend upon the virtue and Intelligence of the people. It Is vain hope for the continu ance of free government without means of Insuring the Intelligence of those who are the source of power. No less than ouc- soventh the entire voting population of our country are yet unable to read or write. It Is encouraging to observe in connection with the growth of fraternal feeling in those Htates in which slavery formerly existed, evidence of increasing Interest in universal education, and 1 shall be glad to give my approval to . any appropriate measures which may bo enacted by Congress for the purpose of supplementing with national aid the local systems of education in these Htutcs, and all the Htates. Having already invited your attention to the needs of the District of Columbia with respect to its iiiblic school system, I here add that I elleve it desirable, uot so much with refer ence to the local wants of the District., but to tho great and lasting benefit of the entire country, that this system should be crowned with a university, in all respects in keeping with the national capital, and thereby real ize the cherished hope of Washington on this subject. 1 also earnestly commend the request of the regents of the Smithsonian Institute, that an adequate appropriation be made for the establishment and conduct of a national museum under their supervision. AN OPEN LETTER TO THE PUBLIC. New York, October 1st, 1877. I have devoted twenty years of pa tient study to the Liveramfitsrelations to the human body, in search of a rem edy which would restore it, when dis eased, to its normal condition. The result of that labor lias been the pro duction of TtTTT*f» LIVER PILLfl. Their popularity has become so extend ed amt tho demand so great as to induce unscrupulous parties to counterfeit them, thereby pouring me of tho re ward, and the alHicted of their virtues. TO CAUTION THE PUBLIC, and protect them for vilo impositions, I have adopted a new label, which bears my trade-mark and notice of its entry in tlio Office of the Librarian of Con gress, also my signature, thus : 6: «*TO COUNTERFEIT THIS IH FOROKRY.*®* Before purchasing, examine tlie label closely. THE GENUINE TUTT’S PILLS exert ajpeeuliar influence on tho sys tem. Their action is prompt ami their good effects are felt in a fow hours. A quarter of a century of study of tlie Liver lias demonstrated that It exerts a greater influence over tlie system than any other organ of tlie body, and when disoased the entire organism is deranged. It is specially for tlie heal ing of tliis vital organ that 1 have spent so many years of toil, and having found tlie remedy, which lias proved tlie greatest lioon ever furnished the afflict ed,shall they lie deprived of its benelits, and u vile imitation imposed upon them! Lot the honest people of Amerieaseeto it that they are not defrauded. Scruti nize the label closely, see that it bears all the marks above mentioned, and buy tlie medicine only from respectable dealers. It can be found everywhere. Very respectfully, W. i t. TUTT.
