The I’rcnitleir* Weswag*
l’resi lent Arthur submitted to
ho new Congress his annual mes
sage. It is a lengihv document
ai d vt i v commonplace in its char
after. Ii is in fact a lucre resume
nl he various reports submitted
by heads of departments and con
t iins only a few recommendations
that will strike the country as of
more than minor iinpor atice. In
Ins recommendations in reference
to foreign emigration and the civ
il righ s bill it is a tolerably clever
electioneering document, which
while it proposes nothing very i e
inite. in genetul terms, no'oa'es
that he would like to do something
f>r 'hese two classes, it may be
called a non committal paper, ibat
cannot hurt his chances for the
succession and may bring him
some strength in the nominating
convention.
He opens wi h the announce
mem that we are on friendly term#
with.all nations and that satisfac
tory diplomatic relations exist with
the various countries. He sug
gests that Congress create a com
mission to consider the genera 1
question of our rights in the Arner
ican fisheries.
He th iiks. some additional legis
lation is necessary to prevent En
gland from shipping to this coun.
try, her paupers, who are unable
to make a living and are depend
ent on 'he public for a support.
He has taken steps to induce
the governments of Germany and
France to repeal their edicts
against the importation in then
countries of American meat.
Our relations with Mexico are
not in a satisfactory condition.
The old treaty has been abroga
ted and citizens of this country
doing business there are deprived
of consular protection and are de.
pendent upon their local lgw»
alone. He urges the ra itication
of the treaty uow before the ren
•ite. Ihe Mexican troops have act

The coasts defences are inade
quate to protect the cities and har

The ordinary revenue from all
sources for 'he year ending June
doth 1883, amounted to $398,287
581,15. Made up as follows:

ternal revenue, $144,720,369,98;
from tax ou Banks, $9,111,008,85;
assays, $4,460,205,17, anu from
other sources $17,333,637.
It is estimated that after pay
ing all expeuses there will be a
aet ba'anoe iu the treasury of
over $39,183. 258.
He recommends the abolish
ment of all excise taxes except
'hose on dis'illcd liquors.
He recommends the trade dol
ar be received at the Treasury for
i s intrinsic value and recoined in
to standard money.
The condition of the navy is not
encouraging and he .recommends
that some of the surplus funds be
applied to putting it in a condition
to protect our sea coast and com
merce.
There are 47,868 post-oftices iu
the country. The old rate of pos
ttige no drop letters v m one cn*
bu* it was increased to 2 centt
wh«n the reduction of other mail i
nutter took place. The rate may
now be reduced to the old pri<e
with propriety.
He dissents from the opinion of
the Post Master General that the
government should take charge of j
the telegraph but he thiuks the!
government should exercise some i
sort of supervision over into state
telegraphic communications.
He wan's the fees of jurors and
witnesses in the 1’ S courts in
creased and thinks that district
attorneys and marshals should be
paid a fixed salary aud they should
; be paid wholly by salary and not.
1 in part by fees.
He favors the exteudiug of ma-
teiial aid to public education where
adequa e provision has not already
been made.
The Mormon problem is still un
settled. All the members elect
are mormons and there is no rea
son to believe that they will aid
the government in suppresjing
the proligamy prevailing in that
territ try. Poligamy has becoiu*
so strongly entrenched that it is
profitless to attack it iu the ordi
nary method* of dealing with
such grievance*. He favors a re
pea) of the act establishing local
government and the establishment
of a commission hacked by hs ar
my, with such powers and duties
as ms; be deemed necessary.
He wants Alaska put under the
protection of the law. They have
no law for th# collection of debts,
enforcement of contracts an 1 none
or the punishment of criminals.
The traffic between the states
should be protected as far as Con
gress has power from injustice and
oppresion
Congress should withdraw from
sale certain timber lands to main
tain the vater supply ot the plains
celow.
The civil service commission has
he thinks been a success.
He utges a constitutional amend
inent providing for the succession
in case of the death of the presi
dent and vice president.
He wants an amendment to the
constitution adopted by which the
executive may approve part of the
general appropria ion act and dis
approve other appropriations
As the Supreme four has declar

tional, he urges Congress to sup
pliment the guarantee# offered by

The Birmingham Kwh.
Birmingham Ala has been *n a

As soon an it was known the SAer
iff summoned a and caught
him and lodged him in jail. A

defiance to law and •fficers.
They broke intoTbe jail but tue

A nilitary calUdont
but they wer# powerlss* to hold
the mob in subjection. The Gov

were put on duty they took charge
of the negro and guarded hint duv

quently convicted and curried i

'ashing on Correspond
ent of the Cmbtution says that
Representative tinmond will
probably be appointed 'vsvieman
of the Judiciary Committee. We
doubt whether a belter appoint
nieutcmld lio made. A clear
headed lawyer, learned in his pro
session and with experience
eno ugh to enable him
to thoroughly tinders' and the du
ties of the position, lie will not on
ly make an efficient officer but cue
whose reports will always do cred
it to his commi tee.
A resolution has been introduc
ed in the Virginia Legula ure rsk
ing Senator Mahout to resign.
This is well. Wheu a man hold
ing his high position can get bis
consent to prostitute his office
to the base purpose of slandering
his ptople and attempting to tarn
over the entire iu erev of the
State to un irrepressible mob of
Zulus, he no longer represents the
people and should have respect
enough for himself to quietly witu
draw from public life. But he
will not do it. He will hold his
grip on the office until the last
moment.
The burglars who -obbed As
kew’s Mafe in Atlau'u liav* been
captured. A youug man by the
name of Albert Sidney O’Shielda
who was raised in OerUraville.
was captured in Ch.ttanooga,
charged with stealing a watch.
AVhile in custody he confessed to
being one of the party who bur
glarized the safe And stated that
Wu Tripp, Geo Cinnelly and Joe
Deruian were bis accomplices-
All Ihe parties are iu jail. The
men charged by O’Shielda as his
accomplices deny his story and as 1
sert their innocence. O'Shields :
is an old offender am' has been in j
the Penitentiary twice.
