THR INDIAN PKAOB POLICY.
The attention of jCongresa is invited to
,e report of the Secretary of the lots*
>r,aud to the legislation asked for bvbim.
je domestic interests of the people are
tore in'.iiuately connected with this De-
artmeut, thau with either of the other
lepartmeots of the Government. Its
a ties have been added to from time to
me, until they have become so onerous
tat without the moet perfect system and
nler, it will he impossible for any Seoreta*
j of (be Interior to keep trace of all offioial
rausactions having his sanction and done
i his name, and for which he is held per*
Dually responsible. The policy adopted
or the management of Indian affairs,
nown as the '‘Peace Policy," has been
dhered to with the most beneficial re*
Its. It is confidently hoped that a Tew
era will lelievo our frontier from danger
Indian depredations. I commend the
oommeudations of the Secretary for the
:teusion of the homestead laws to the
dians, and of some sort of territorial
ivormnent for the Indian Territory. A
eat majority of the Indians oooupying
iis territory are believed yet to be inoa*
tble of maintaining their rights against
he more civilised and enlightauad white
isn. Any territorial forts of govern*
ient giveu them, therefore, should pro*
>ct them in their homes and property for
period of at least twenty years, and be-
>re its final adoption should be ratified
y a majority of those affec:ed. The re-
Dft of the Secretary of tha Interior,
erewith attached, gives much interesting
tatistical information, which I abstain
rom giving an abstract of, bnt refer yon
o the report itself. The act of Congress
trovidiog the oath whioh pensioners must
uhscribe to before drawing their pen-
ions outs off from this bounty a few sur-
ivors of the war of 1812, residing in the
iouthern States. I recommend the resto-
rttion of this bounty to all anoh. The
lumber of persons whose names would
hus be restored to the list of pensioners
s not large. They are all old persons,who
could have taken no part in the|rebellion,
ind the services for whioh they were
lwarded their pensions was id defense of
;he whole country.
THE CENTENNIAL.
The report of the Commissioner of Ag
riculture, herewith, contains suggestions
of much interest to the general publio,acd
refers to tbe # app reaching Centennial and
the part his department is ready to take
In it. I feel that the nation at large is in
rested in having this exposition a sue-
ins, and commend to Congress snob ac
ton as will seenre a greater general inter-
it in it. Already many foreign nations
ive signified their intention to be repre-
izited at it, and it may be expected that
very civilized nation will be represented.
civil sxnvicx.
Tho rales adopted to improve the Civil
Hervioe of the Government have been ad-
heied to as closely as has been practicable
with the opposition with whioh they meet.
The effeot, 1 believe, has been beneficial
I on the whole, and has tended to the ele-
1 vatiou of the service, bnt it is impractica
ble to maintain them without the direct
and positive support of Congress. Gon
erally the support which this reform re
ceives is from those who give it their sup
port only to find fanlt when the rales are
apparently departed from. Removals
from office without preferring charges
against parties removed are frequently
cited as deptrturos from the rales adopt
ed, and the retention of those against
whom charges are made by irresponsibly
persons and without good grounds is also
often condemned as a violation of them.
Under these effeumstanoes, therefore,
announce that if Congresa adjourns with
out positive legislation on the subject of
Civil Service Reform I will regard auoh
action as a disapproval of the system, and
will ubandon it except so far as to require
examinations for oertain appointees to
determine their fitness, and competive
examinations will be abandoned. The
r gentlemen who have given their service#
without compensation as members of the
board to devise rules and regulations for
the government of the Civil Service to the
country have shown much zeal and earn
estness in their work, and to them as well
as to myself it will be a sonroe of mortifi
cation if it is thrown away. Bnt I repeat
that it is impossible to carry this system
to a successful issue without general ap
proval and assistance and a positive law
to support it.
CAPITAL AND LABOB.
I have stated that three elements of
prosperity to the nation—capital, labor,
skilled and unskilled, and prodnots of the
soil—remain with ns. To direct the em
ployment of these is a problem deserving
the most serious attention of Congress. If
employment can be given to all the labor
offering itself, prosperity necessarily fol
lows. I have expressed the opinion, and
repeat it, that the first requisite to the ac
complishment of this end it the substitu
tion of a sound currency in place of one
of a fluctuating value. This secured,
there are many interests that might be
fostered to the great profit of both labor
and capital. Uow to induoe capital to
employ labor is the question. Tha sub
ject or oheap transportation has occupied
the attention of Congress. Muoh new
light on this question will, without donbt,
be given by the committee appointed by
the last Congress to investigate and le-
port. A revival of ship building, and
particularly of iron ateamshlp building,
is of vast iuiportanca to our national
prosperity. The United States is now
paying over one hundred millions per an
num for freights and paaaage on foreign
ships, to be carried abroad and expended
in the employment and support of other
people?. Beyond a fair peroentaga of
what should go to foreign vessels, esti
mating the tonnage and travel of each
respectively, it is to be regretted
that this disparity' in the carry
ing trade exists, and to correet it I would
l>e willing to see a great departure from
the usual course of the Government in
supporting what might usually be termed
private enterprise. I would not suggest
as a remedy direct subsidy to American
steamship lines, but I would suggest the
direct offer of ample compensation for
carrying the mails between the Atlantic
saaboard cities and tha Contiaental on
American owned and American built
steamers, and would extend this liberality
to vessels carrying the mails to go to
American States and to Central America
and Mexico, and would pursue the same
policy from our Pacific seaports to foreign
porta on the Peoifio. It might be de
manded that vessels built fer this servioe
should come up to e standard fixed by
legislation in tonnage, speed and all other
qua itiea looking to the possibility of tbs
Government requiring them st some time
for war purpose*. The right, also, of
taking possession of thsm in snob sn
emergency should bs guarded. I offer
these suggest ions believing thsm worthy
of consideration in all seriousness, affect
ing all sections and all interests alike. If
anything better o*n be done to dire t the
country into a course of general pros-
! >®rity, no one will be more ready than I
to 6eoond the plan.
THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
Forwarded herewith will be found the
report of tho Commissioners appointed
under an sot of Congress, approved June
20tb, 1874, to wind up the affairs of the
District government. It will be seen from
the report that the net debt of the Dis
trict of Columbia, less securities on bend
end available, is: Bonded debt issued
prior to July 1st* 1874, #8,888.940 43;
the sixty-five bonds, by act of Cougress
of June 20, 1874, are #2,088,168 73 ; cer
tificates of the Board of Audit, $4,770,-
558 45; total, $15,742,607 61 ; leas spe
cial improvement assessments chargeable
to private property in excess of any de
mand against such aaMessments $1,614,-
054 37; less Chesapeake and Ohio Canal
bonds, $75,000, aud Washington and
Alexandria Railroad bond?, $59,000. Iu
the hands of the commissioners of the
sinking fund, $1,748,054 37 ; leaving the
actual debt less paid assetts, $13,931,-
613 24. In addition to this there are
claims preferred against the government
of the District, amounting in the estimated
aggregate reported by the Board of Audit
to $3,141,787 48, of which the greater
part will probably be rejected. This sutn
can with no moro propriety be included
in the debt accouut of the Distriot gov
ernment than can the thousaids of claims
against the General Government be in-
cluled as a portion of tho national debt;
but the aggregate sum thus sta’ed icoludes
something more thau the funded debt
chargeable exclusively to the Distriot of
Oolnmbia. Tue aot of Congresa of June
20, 1874, contemplates an apportionment
between the Uuited States Government
and the District of Columbia in respect
to the payment of the principal and
interest of the three-sixty-flve bonds.
Therefore, in compntiug with precision
the bonded debt of the Distriot the ag
gregate sums above s’ated as respeots the
three-sixty-flve bonds now issued, the out
standing certificates of the Board of Au
dit, and the unadjusted claims pending
before that board, should be rednoed to
the extent of the amonnt to be apportion
ed to the United States Government in
the manner indicated in the act of Con
gress of Jane 20, 1874. I especially iu-
vite your attention to the recommenda
tions of the Commissioners of the Sink
ing Fund relative to the ambiguity of the
aot of June 20,1874. With regard to the
interest on tho District bonds, and cou-
solidatfon of indebtedness of the District,
I feel muoh indebted to the gentlemen
who consented to leave their private af
fairs and ooiuo from a distance to attend
to the business of this District, and for
the ablo and satisfactory manner in
which it has been conducted. I
sure their services will be equally appre
ciated by the whole country. It will
be seen from the p.ocompanyiug fall re
port of the Board of Health that the
sanitary condition of the Distriot is very
satisfactory. In my opinion the Dis
trict of Columbia should be regarded aa
the grounds of the National Capital, in
which the entire people are interested. I
do not allude to this to urge generous ap
propriations to tho District, but to draw
the attention of Congress in framing a
law for the government of the District,
to the magnificent scale on whioh the city
was planned by the founders of the Gov
ernment, the manner in whioh, lor orna
mental purpose?, tho reservation, streets
and avenues were laid out, and the pro
portion of the property actually possessed
by the General Government. I think the
proportion of the expenses of the Govern
ment and improvements to be borne
by the General Government the
cities of Washington and
Georgetown, and the county
should be carefully and equitably defined.
In accordance with Section 3, act approv
ed June 23d, 1874, I appointed a board to
make a survey of the mouth of the Mis-
Rissippi river, with a view to determine
the best method of obtaining and main
taining a depth of water sufficient for the
purposes of commerce, etc., and in ac
cordance with au act entitled (t an act to
provide for the appointment of a Commis
sion of Engineers to investigate and re-
port a permanent plan for the reclama
tion of the alluv al basis of the Missis
sippi river, subject to inundation," I ap
pointed a Commission of Engineers.
Neither hoard has yet completed its
labors. Whoa their reports are received
they will be forwarded to Congress without
delay. U. 8. Grant.
