your earnest attention. I will not now sag
geat plana by which this object may be effected,
But will, if necessary, make it the subject of
a apeci ah message during the session of Cone
grew.
At the March term, Congress, by joint reso
lution, authorised the Executive to order elec
tions in the States of Virginia, Mississippi
and Texas, to submit to them the constitutions
aither entire or in s- --parnte parts, to be voted
apon at the discretion of the Executive, and
mder hi* authority. The elections were call*
#d. In Virginia, the election took place on the
®th of July. A Governor and Lieutenant
Governor were elected and have been installed.
The Legislature met and did all required by
this resolution and by all the reconstruction
acts of Congress, and abstained from all
doubtful authority. I recommend that her
Senators and Representatives bo promptly ad
mitted to their seats, and that the Stato be
fully restored to its place in the family of
Btatea. Elections were called in Mississippi
and Texas to commence on the 30th of Novem
ber—two dnys in Mississippi and four days in
Texas. The election* hove tnken place, but
♦he result is nut yet known. It is hoped
that the acte of the Legislatures of these
States, when they meet, will be such ns to re
ceive your approval, and thus close the work
of reconstruction.
Among tbe evils growing out of the rebel
lion, and not yet referred to, is thnt of an irre
deemable currency. It is an evil which I hope
will receive your most earnest attention. It is
a duty, and one of the highest duties of the
Government, to secure to the oitizens a medi
um of exchange of a fixed and unvarying val
«e. Thie implies a return to a specie basis,
and no substitute for it can be devised. It
should be commenced now, and reached at the
earliest practicable moment consistent with a
fair regard to tho interests of the debtor class.
Immediate resumption, if practicable, would
not be desired. It would compel tbe debtor
class to pay beyond their contracts, a premium
on gold at the date of their purchase, and
would bring bankruptcy and ruin to thousands.
The fluctuations, however, in pnper value of
the measure of all values, gold, is detrimental
to the interests of trade. It makes the man
of business an involuntary gnmbler, for in all
•ales where future payment is to be mnde,
both parties speculate as to what will be
of the currency to he paid and re-

ssar■ - to run, bearing
interest at the rate of six and five percent, ro
apeetively. It is optional with the Govern
ment to pay these bonds at any period after
expiration of the least time mentioned upon
their faoe. The time has already expired
when the great part may bo taken up, and is
rapidly approaohing when all may be. It is
believed that all which are now due may be
replaced by bonds bearing a rnto of interest
not exceeding four and a half per oent., and ns
rapidly as the remainder becomes due, tlmt
they may be'replaced in tho same way. To 110-
oomplish this, it mny bo necessary to authorize
intorcst to be paid at either of the three or
four of the money centres of Europe, or by
any assistant Treasurer of the Unitod States
at the option of the holder of the bonds. I
suggest this subject for tbe consideration of
Congress, and also simultaneously with this,
the propriety of reducing our currency, ns
before suggested, nt its market vuluo at tho
time the law goes into effect, increasing tho
rate at whioh the currency will be bought and
Bold from dsy to day or week to week ot the
Ktmo rate of interest as the government pays
its bonds.
The subject of a tariff and renewal of taxa
tion will necessarily receive your attention. The
reveoueeof the country are greeter than its
requirement* and inoy with safety bo reduced,
but as the funding of tbe debt in a four and n
half per cent, loan would reduce the annual
eurrent expenses largely thereafter, funding
justifying a greater reduction of taxation than
would be now expedient. I suggest a post
ponement of this quostion until the next
meeting cf Congress. It mny be advisable to
modify taxation and tbe tariff in instances
where unjust or burdensome discriminations
are made by the present law, but a general
revision of tho laws regulating this sutject
recommend a postponement of it for tho pres
ent. 1 also suggest a renewal of the tax on
income*, but at a reduced rate, say throe per
oent. and this tax to expire in three year*.
Wish tbe funding of the National debt as hero
xuggasta], I f M I safe in eayiug that the taxes
and revenue from import# may be reduced
safely from sixty to eighty millions per annum
at onoe, and may be still further reduced from
year to year as the resources of the country
are developed.

The good offices of the United States to
bring ahout peace between Spain and the
South American Republics having been ac
cepted by Spain, Peru and Chili, a Congress
has been invited to be held at Washington du
ring the present winter.
A grant has been given to Europeans of an
exclusive right ol transit over the Territory
of Niearaoga to which Costa Rica has given
its assent, which it is alleged conflicts with the
vested rights of citisens of the United States.
The Department of State has now this subject
under consideration.
The Minister of Peru having made repres
entations that there wns n state of war between
Peru and Spain, and that Spain was construct
ing in and near New York thirty gunboats
which might be used by Spain to relieve the
naval force nt Cuba to operate against Peru,
orders were given to prevent their departure.
No further steps have been tnken by the rep
resentative of the Peruvian Government to
prevent tho departure of these vessels, and I
not feeling authorized to detain tho prop
erty of a nation with which wc are nt peace on
a mere executive order, the matter was refer
red to the courts.
The conduct iif the war botwoen the ullios
and the Republic of Paraguay has made inter
course with that country difficult, and it has
been deemed advisable to withdraw our rep
resentative from there.
Towards the close of the last administration,
a conrentioo was signed at London for the
settlement of outstanding claims between
Groat Britain and the United States, whioh
failed to receive the advico and consent of the
Senate. TIIO time and circuinstnnees attend
ing the negotiation of that treaty were unfavor
able to its acceptance by the people of the
United States, and its provisions were wholly
inadequate for tho settlement of the grove
wrongs sustained by this Government. Inju
ries resulting to the United States by reason
of the course adopted by Great Britian during
tho war, increased tho rates of insurance, in
tho diminution of exports and imports, and
other obstructions to domustio industry nud
production, in its effect upon tho foreign com
merce of tho country, inadecreaso and trans
fer to Great Britian of our commercial marine,
the prolougatioa of tho war and increased
coat both in treasure and in lives, and of its
suppression, could not be adjusted and satisfied
as ordinary commercial claims which continu
ally arise ttetweon commercial nations. And
yet the Convention treated them simply as
such ordinary claims, from which they differ
more widoly in tho gravity of their character
than in the magnitude of their amount. Great
oven us is that difference, not a word was
found'n the treaty, and not an inference
could be drawn from it to remove tho senso of
unfriendliness of tho courao of Great Britian
ia our struggle for redress, which has so deep
ly and universally impressed itself upon tho
pooplo of this oountry. Bolieving that a con
vention thus misconceived in its scope, and
inadequate in its provisions, would not have
produoed the healthy, cordial settlement of
pending questions, which alone is consistent
with tho relations which I desire to have firm
ly established between the United Stutas and
Groat Britain, I regard tho notion of the Sen
ate in rejecting tho treaties to havu boon wise
ly tnken in the interest of peace and us a
necessary step in the direction of a perfect and
cordial friendship between the two countries.
A sonsitivo poopln, conscious of their power,
are more at ease under a great wrong, wholly
undesirable, than under the restraint of a set
tlement which satisfies neither their ideas of
justice nor their grave sense of tho grievance
they havo sustained. Tho rejection of the
treaty was followed by n stnte of puhlio feel
ing on both sides which I thought not favor
able to an immediate nttempt at renew
ed negotiations. I accordingly so instructed
the minister of the United States to Great
Britain, ami found thnt my views in this re
gard were shared by Iler Majesty's ministers.
I hope that the time mny soon arrive when
the two Governments can approach the solu
tion of this momentous question with an ap
preciation of what is due to the rights, digni
ty and honor of each, and with a determina
tion net only to remove the causes of com
plaint in the past, but to lay the foundation of
a broad principle »f public law which will
prevent future differences, and tend to a firm
and continued peace and friendship. This is
now tho only grave question which the United
States lias with any foreign nation.
The question of renewing the treaty for re
ciprocal trade between the United States and
tho British Provinces on this continent, is fa
vorably considered in conformity with the re
commendation of Congress.
A proposition to abolish mixed courts for the
suppression of the slave trade is under nego
tiation.
It having come to my knowledge that a cor
porate company, organized tinder British laws,
proposed to land upon tho shores of the United
States, and to operate there a sub marine cable
under a concession of the Emperor of the
French, of an onotusive right for twenty vears
of telegraphic communication between the
shores of France and the United States, with
the very objectionable feature of subjecting all
messages conveyed thereby to the scrutiny and
control of the French Government, I caused
the French and British Legations at Washing
ton to bo made acquainted w ith the probable
policy of Congress on this subject as foreshad
! owed by a bill which passed the Senate last
. March. This drew from the representatives of
; (he company an agreement to accept a# the
ot their operations, the provisions of tbe
bill, or such other enactment on tbe subjec%-l
might be pa»s<-d during the approaching sessi A
of Congress ; also, to use their influence e-jv-i
cure from the French Government a-sti r and
tioo of their Concession to permit the Ist* 'MI
of any coMe belonging to any company ine K
porated by authority of the United States, or
any State in the Union, and on their part not
to oppose the establishment of any such cable
In consideration of this agreement, I directed
the withdrawal of all opposition by the United
States to the landing of the cable until the
meeting of Congress. I regret to say that there
has been no modification made in tbe emupn .
ny‘s concession, nor so far as I can learn lure
they attempted to secure one. Their conces
sion excludes the capital and citizens of the
United States from compeiition upon the shores
of France. I recommend legislation to protect
the rights of citizens of the Unitgd States, and
the sovereignty of the nation again-t such an
assumption. I shall also endeavor to secure
by negotiation an abandonment of the prin
ciple of monopolies in Ocean Telegraph cables.
The unsettled political condition of other coun
tries less fortunate than otir own, sometime*
induces their citizens to come to the United
States for the sole purpose of becoming natur
alized. Having secured this, they return to
their native country, and reside there. With
out disclosing their change of allegiance, they
accept official positions of trustor honor, which
can only be held by citizens of their na tjjji .
lands, under passports describing them as such
citizens, and it is only when civil discord, after
perhaps years of quiet, threatens their persons
or their property, or'when their native State
drafts them into its military service, that their
change of allegiance ia known. They reside
permanently away from tho United States,
contribute nothing to its revenues, avoid th*
duties of citizenship, and only make thenselvei
known by n claim of protection. 1 have di*
rected the diplomatic and consular officers ts
scrutinize carefully all such clnims of protect
tion. , The citizen of the United States, whethr
er nativo or adopted, who discharges hisdutj
to his country, is entitled to its complete pro
tection. While I have a voice in the direction
of affairs, I shall not consent to imperil tliiz
sacred right tiy conferring it upon fictitious or
fraudulent claimants. r
Irvitntions have been extended to the Cabi
net from London, Paris, Florence, Berlin, Brus
sels, tin- Hague, Copenhagen and Sto
to empower their representatives at Washing
ton to simultaneously enter into negotiation*
and to conclude with tho United Slates Con
ventions Identical in form, making uniform'
regulations as to the construction of parrs o£
vessels to he devoted to the use of the emigrant,
passengers, in to quantity and quality of food,
ns to the medical treatment of tho sick, and to
tho rules to he observed during the voyage, in
order to secure ventilation, to promote health,
to prevent intrusion, to protect the fee nltts,

regulations by summary process.

Manilla is nu| a violation of our treaty with

Our man 11 fact urea are inereu-ing with won
derful rapidity under the encouragement w hich
they now receive. With thu improvement* in
mauinery already effected and still increasing,
causing machinery to take tha place of skilled
labor to a largo extent, nur imports of many
articles must fall off largely within a few years
Fortunately, ton, manufactories are not con
fined to a few localities as formerly, and it is
to be hoped will become more and more dif
fused, making the interest in them equal in all
sections. They give employment and support
to hundreds of thousands *uf people at home,
and retain with us the means which otherwise
would ho shipped abroad. The extension of
the Railroads in Europe and the East arc bring
ing into competition with our agricultural pro
ducts like products of other countries. Self
interest, if not self-preservation, therefore, di
rects caution against disturbing any industrial
interest of the country. It teaches us also the
necessity of looking to other markets for the
sale of our surplus. Our neighbors South of
us, and Chinn and Japan, should receive our
special attention. It will he the endeaver of
the administration to cultivate such relations
with these nations as to entitle us to theiroonfi
denee, and make it their interest as well as
ours to establish better commercial relations.
Through the ngency of a more enlightened
policy than that heretofore pursued towards
China, largely due to the sagacity and efforts
of one of our own distinguished citizens, the
world is about to commence largely increased
relations with that populous and hitherto ex
clusive nation. As the United States have
been the initiators in this new policy, so they
should he the most earnest in showing their
good faith in making it a success. In this
connection I advise such legislation as will
forever preclude the enslavement of the Chi
nese upon our soil, under the name of Coolies,
and also prevent American vessels from en
gaging in the transportation ot Coolies to any
country tolerating the system. I also recom
mend that the mission'to China he raised to
one of the first class.
Ou my assuming the responsible duties of
Chief Magistrate of the United States, it was
with the conviction that three things were es
sential to its peace, prosperity and fullest de
velopment. First among these is strict in
tegrity in fulfilling all our obligations. Sec
ond : It secures protection to the person and
property of the citizen of the United States in
each and every portion of nur common country
wherever 110 may choose to move, without
reference to original nationality, religion, color
or polities, demanding of him only obedience
to the law sand proper respect for the rights of
others. Third: Union of all the States with
equal rights, indestructible by any constitu
tional means. To secure the first of these,
Congress has taken two essential steps ; First:
In declaring, by joiut resolution that the pub
lie debt altall be paid, principal and interest,
in coir., and second, by proridin;; the means
for paying. Providing the means, boweyer,
con Id not secure the object desired without a
prepc r administration of the laws for the col'
’ lec'ion of the reve» u es, and an economical
disbursement of them. 'Jf O this subject the
administration has most earnestly addressed
itself with resulte, I hope, satisfactory to the
country. There has been no hesitation in
changing officials in order to secure an efficient
execution of the laws, sometimes, too, where,
in a mere parry view, undesirable political
results were likely to follow, nor any hesita
tion in sustaining efficient officials against
remonstrances wholly political.
It may be well to mention liere the embar
rassment possible to arise from leaving on the
statute books the so-called tenure of office acts,
and I earnestly recommend their total repeal.
It could not have bo2n the intention of the
framers of the Constitution, when providing
that appointments made by the President
should receive the consent of the Senate, -that
the latter should have the power to retain iri
office persons placed there by federal appoint
ments against ilia will of the President. The
law is inconsistent with a faithful and efficient
administration of the Government. What
faith can an executive put in officials forced
upon him. and those too, w hom he suspended
for reason? flow will such officials be likely
to serve an administration which they know
does not trust them ?
For the second requisite to our growth and
prosperity, time and a firm hut humane ad.
ministration of existing laws. They may be
ineffective or prove harsh and unneccs-ary, or
probably all that arc required. The 3d can
not lie attained by special legislation, hut must
he regarded as fixed by the constitution itself,
and gradually acquiesced in by force of public
opinion.
From the foundation of the Government to
the present, the management of the original
inhabitants of this Continent, the Indians has
been a subject of embarrassment and expense,
and has been attended with continuous rob
beries, murders and wars. From my own ex
perience upon the frontiers, and in Indian
countries, I do not hold either legislation or
the conduct of ihe whites who ccitio most in
contaet with the Indians, blameless with tlie-e
hostilities. *****
The report of the Postmaster General fur
nishes a clear and comprehensive exhibit ol
the operations of the postal service, and of
the financial condition of the PostpfSce I •apart
ment. Tho ordinary postal revenues for the
year ending theSOth of .June, 1869. amounted
to $16,444,510 1 and the expenditures to -:23,.
498,131, Your attention is respectfully called
to the recommendation made by the Postmaster
General for authority to change the rate of
compensation to the main trunk railroad lines
for their kervica* in carrying the plait* • for
having post route map* executed ; for rcurgan
*Wing and increasing the efficiency «f the spe
cial agency service ; for inerea-o of tho mail
♦rvicc on the Pacific, and for establishing
Snail service under the flag of the Union on
lb* Atlantic, and roost especially do 1 call
your attention to his recommendation for the
total abolition of the franking privilege. This
i* an abuse from which (joone receives a e :n
--menstirate advantage, It reduce* the roeeipt.-
fot' postal Service from 23 to 30 per sent., and
largely increases the service to he perform.' 1.
During the year ending the ,30th of Sept., bib
the Office issued 13,762pn’erits, and
it- receipts were 8686,389, being $213,926 more
than the expenditures.
I would tespecifnlly call.your anemia to

If it is the desire of Congress to make the
census, which must' he taken during the
year 1870, more complete and perfect than
heretofore, I would suggest early action upon
any plan that may he agreed upon. As Con
gress, at the last session, appointed a commit
tee to lake into consideration such measures
ns might be deemed proper in reference to the
census, and to report a plan. I desist from
saying more,
1 recommend to your favor..hie consideration
the claims of the Agricultural Bureau for lib
eral appropriations in u country so diversified
in climate and soil as ours, and with a popula
tion so largely dependent upon agriculture.—
The benefits that can he conferred hy proper
ly fostering this Bureau are indispensable.
1 desire, respectfully, to call the attention
of Con gross to the inadequate salaries of a num
ber of the most important officers of the Gov
ernment. In this message I will not enumer
ate them, hut will specify only the Justices of
the Supreme Court. No change lias been made
in their salaries for fifteen years. Within that
time the labors of these Courts have largely
increased, and the expenses of Hying have at
least doubled during the same timo. Congress
has twice found it necessary to increase
largely the compensation of its own members,
and the duty which it owes to another depart
ment of the Government deserves, and will
undoubtedly receive, due consideration.
There are many subjects, not alluded to in
this message, which might with propriety ho
introduced, but I abstain, believing that your
patriotism and statesmanship will the
topics and the legislation most conducive to
the interests of the whole people. On my
part, I promise a rigid adherence to the law
and their strict enforcement.
