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. BT ELLIS A HARRISON. Kales and Horses at Auc tion.
