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

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.

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;
