Gata “of revenues, THE DAILY 1 spies NEVADA crry, cat. — oo. apes & CALKINS, Prop'rs. Tr Oy nd rn SUMMARY OF THE PRESIDENTS . ; MESSAGE. President Arthur’s message, presented to Congress Monday, is an able and practical production. We herewith give a summary of the principal features: It begins with the assurance that our foreign relations are on a satisfactory basis. It refers to the Nicaragua canal ques. "tion and the Clayton-Bulwer treaty; states that remonstrances ad lressed to the Russian Government regarding the persecution of the Jews have been received courteous'y; suggests that more power be given the Executive to deal with propositions for International conferences on various matters; speaks of trouble with Spain about consular fees; states that Germany has iavited the United States to take part in‘an Exhibition next year, and refers the matter ’ $2 Congress; pays a passing tribute to the late Unitéd States Minister,G. P, Marsh; states that the Swiss Goverument has taken steps to prevent the emigration to this country of paupers and criminals; gives Congress a mild reminder that it’ is time that the Chinese Idemnity matter was settled; refers to the Chinese claim for the transit through the country u ider the new law, and indicates a belief that they should not be excluded; briefly discusses the Haw, aiian Treaty, with hints looking towards ite modilication, commends the Mexican Boundary question to Congress and proposes a Commission to deal with it; reviews the Chile. Peruvian wery-‘wui? “expresses the opinion that owing tu the obstinacy -of-the Chilean Government it is useless for the United States to attempt any further intercession; _politely pooh-poohs Mr. Blaine’s Peace Con-, gress;suggestslegislation to harmonize the United States with other nations n regard to rales for collisions at sea, and for an agreement upon some general method determing the lat:tude and longitude, and regulating time; approves the proposition for putting all diplomatic officers upon salaries and converting fees-into the treasury; and £o forth, almost ad infinitum. The President agrees with the Secretary of the Treasury in recommen ling a cons:derable reduction He is in favor of abolishing aii internal revenue taxes exeept those on distilled spirits, malt liquors and tobacco, which will cut off about $50,000,000, and leave $95,000,000 of revenue. He urges the necessity of revising the tarilf, and, though he disclaims any desire to do away with protective duties, he thinks the more articles can be put on the free list the better it will be. He calls attention to silver coinage, ¥commending its suspénsion, He discusses the financial question, co‘inciding with Secretary Folger in deprecating the too rapid liquidation of the pubiic debt, and pointing out the dangers which must arise if our immense surpliis continues to be raised and a considerable part of it is applied to this work. His views on these two questions are conservative and judicious, and indicate personal examination of it. In regard to the tariff, he thinks Codgress will derive enlightment from the labors of the Tariff Commission. On the Chinese question he has this much to say: ‘The receut legislation restricting the immigration of laborers from China has given rise tu the question of whethet Chinese proceeding to or from another country may lawfully pass through our own, Tn construiig the Act of May 6, 1882, in connection with the treaty of November 1, 1880, the restriction would seem to be limited to Chinese immigrants coming to the United States as laborers, and should not forbid a mere transit acruss our country. Iask the attention of Congress to the subject, for such action, i’ any may be deemed advisable.” In referring to the report of the Secretary of War, he speaks of the urgent need for--better fortifications to this Coast, characterizing those now existing as utterly useless, and expressing a hope that Congress will attend to this important matter. Some space is given to the question of the retirement of army ofticers, and it is recommended that more attention be paid to the arming of the State militia. The river and harbor appropriation bill affords him an opportunity. to propose an amendment to the United States Constitytion, allowing the Executive to veto separate items in appropriation bills, in accordance with the principle already ‘incorporated into fourteen ‘State Constitutions, among which Cou) aorenpad is numbered. He 1 slRaeigd to “such In connec‘mercantile marie: “He the reconstraction of gonformity with the e Advisory Board. the experience of England to show that it is certain to . The views of the President a Civil Service teform will be receiyed with satisfaction by the country generally. He takes bold and positive ground on behalf of reform, and expresses himself in the clearest manner. He declares himself in favor of abolition of . . the spoils system, establishment of genuine competition, permanence o: tenure, and extinction of official patronage altogether. He says that experience has convinced him \pf the necessity of relieving the Executive from the intolerable burden of appointment-making. . In speaks on this subject as every President since Lincoln has spoken. On the subject of Political Assessments he i# equally frank and thorough-going. He is forthe abolition of the system, and he admits the truth of all that has been urged against it, Onthe more important questions, therefore that is to say, the tariff, finance, coinage, civil service reform, and political assessments, the President places himself fully abreast of the most advanced thought of the time, and if Congress is only able aud willing to follow him in this intrepid policy there is no telling what reaction it may not set up. PosrMasTER-GENERAL James’ annual report shows the vast extent of the business of the Postoffice Department and the enormous cost under it. The report shows that in sixteen States ouly is there a surplus of receipts over expenses. Californie is noted for excelling the Kastern States in many things, and we can boast of showing the largest deficit over receipts in the general postal service. California had a deficit of half.a million dollars—the exact figures being $508,351. Texas follows California closely, her deficit being $459,019. The Postoffice Department for the year ending on the 30th of June showed a total revenue of $45,876,410.15, and an expenditure UP F2 5 AIO, 624.75, Aiter deducting outstanding liabilities PostmasterGeneral James reported a surplas of $1,508, 224.94. The receipts were $5,091.012.18 more than the preceding year, while the expenditures were only $717,134.17 more. The balance in the Treasury from all the appropriations for the: year, after satisfying all obligations, was more than $3,100,000. Tue Oil City Derrick mao has been there, He says: When an editor makes a mistaké in his paper all the world sees it and calls him a liar. When a private citizen makes a mistake nobody knows it except a few friends and they come around and ask the editor to keep it out of tht-“ger. Whea the private citizen dies the editor is asked t6 write of all his good qualities and leave out the bad. When the editor dies the private citizen says: ‘‘Now that old liar will get bis deserts,” Ir isa good thing to laugh ; beasts can weep when they suffer, but they cannot laugh. RUTEL AKRIVALS.

Earnest, City. fact he! Parvons all over the country took such an active part in the recent political campaign that it is not surprising to learn that there are stormy times now in some churches. In a New Jersey city the unsuccessful candidate for Mayor attributes bis overthrow tc the fact that his own pastor condemned him, and. threatens vengeance, and.in Philadelphia the Rev. Thomas A: Fernley’ has been sued for defamation of character.by Mr. Entrekin, a candidate for Select Council, who avers that the clergyman circu ‘sted reports that he things-tHat made him unfit for public mation. A San Franc 15CO banker has just received a postal card from Richmond, Va., by the terms of whieh the sender proposes to pay $11 per thousand for Confederate 6, 7, or 8 per cent. bounds with March, April, Jane, or October, 1865, coupons on, and half price for those béaring January, 1866, coupons. All of which is very suggestive. There is evidently something in the wind which may breed a storm. ‘‘ARE you a member of any temperance organization ?” asked a clerical looking gentleman of a re:!-nused man sitting on a'‘box. ‘‘No, shir; I ushéd ter-be-a memb, but it’s no ush for me ter try ter be a membersh avy more (hic).”” ‘You ouyht to become a member again.” ‘‘Uan’t. do it.” “Why can’t you become a member again 7” ‘‘Because I can’t remember—can't remember to refuse a drink.” +s THE tough ¢ citizen died after being made light house tender.
