ricuHure and useful inochm1-l parstiif. A rimiUr at hool etar:ihed thia yeaf at Forest ipnc, Ore., for the education of Indian youtüon the I'acific Coast In addition to thi. thirty-six IndUn boys and irirla were selected from that Eastern CUerokeeaaml plaeed i twrdliurs-hot.U in North Carolina, where they are to receive an elementary KuRlifh edu.-alion end training in industrial pun.niu. Tli interest shown by Indian parents, tvtn amou the avcalled wild tril.e in ihe education of iht-ir ohildrou ie very fcratifyiuK. and Kiveapromise that lh result accomplish'.! hy the efforts now making will be of lasting xbenefit. . The expenses of Indian education have w far Wen drawn from th ptrroanent civilization fuud at the disnwal of the fiepartment of the Interior; but the fund I now n mnrh red not-d that the continuance of this beneficial wrk will in the future dviM-nd on p peeinv appropriations hy dmpre for toe purp--, and 1 venture to express the not that CouifreNA will not permit institutions fruitful of good result tu perlxh for want of means for their support. On the contrary, an increase of the nnmt-ei of Mich schools apjtears to m" highly advisable Tim paut year has been unusually free from disturbances amons; the Indian tribes. An apr-e-rjnent has bHtt made with the I'tes, by whloh they surrender their Innre reservation in C'oloralo in eoiiKldetation of an. annuity, to le Kiid to them, and airree to settle in severalty on fertain f Und designated fr that purpte, as fanner., boldine individual title to their land in fee sim ple, inalienable for a rertain period. In this way aeoai'.y Indian war ha b"eu avoided, wnich. at onetime, seemed' imminent, and, for the lirt time in th history of the country, an Indian nation ha Kiveu u- its tribunal existence to be titled in servers Ity, and to Uveas individuals nnJ der the coinmou protection f the laws of the f country. Tne oo ldtict of the Indian throv.;rhout the country, duria thj past year, with but Jew noteworthy exception, has bet-n orderly and peaceful.- The guerilla warfare carried on for two years by Victoria and his band of Southern Apaches has virtn.-illy mm? to an et;d hy thedealh of that chit-f and must of M followers, on Mexican soiL The disturbance", catist-d on our Northern frontier by Mittitijr Holl and his men, who had taken refuse in the British Dominions, are aNo likely to eeae. A !ar?0 majority if his followers have urrendvred to our military (orce, and the remainder are apparently in propres of dLsinteralion. ' - I concur with the Secretary of the Interior in exprewing the earnest hoie that Concres will at k this session take favorable artiou on the bill providing for the allotment of hinds on the dint-rent reservations in severalty to the Iudiaus. vith patents conferring fee-Kiinp'le title Inalienable for lor a certain period, and the eventual disposition of the residue of the reservations, for general sottlemeut. wi Lb the consent and for the benefit of the Iudiau", plarinx the latter under the eiial protection of the laws of the country. This measure, together with a vigorous prosecution of our educational efforts, will work the most important and effective advnuce toward the solution of the Indian problem, in prerini; for the gradual mon-intr of our Indian population in the great body ol AmeriiMii citizenship. A lunre increase is reported in the dNposal of public land ior settlement during the ast year, which murks the t.roMeron erowth of onr ajrricultural industry, and a rigorous movement of population toward our unoccupied laud. As this movement proceeds, the coditkntiou of otir land laws, tu well as proper legislation to regulate the disposition of public lands, become of more presciii-.; necessity, and 1 therefore invite the euM.lentü n tit innres. to tne report and the arconipaiiyiiiK draft of a bill, made by the Public Land Commission, which wire communicated by me to Coinrre at the last session. Karly a Ion upon this imirtant subject is desirable. The attention i ongress b apiin asked to the wasteful depredations eomm'ttedon our public timtier laud, and the rapid and indiscriminate destruction of our fort-sis. The urgent necessity for letrislaUon to this end is now jrenetully recniÄ'd. In iew of the lawless character of tiie depredations committed, and the disastrous toniuencv which will inevitably follow their coutiuuance, k-islutioii has atrain and atraiu leen recommendei to arrest the evil, and to preserve for the ievple of our Western States and Territories the Umljcr neeied for domestic and other eveutial use The report of the Directorpf the Geological Survey is a document of unusual interest. The consolidation ui the various jreolocieal and jceopraphioil surveys and exploring euterprix-s. euch of w hich has heretofore, operated upon an independent plan, without concert, can not fail to be of great iienetit to all lh. industries of thecouutry which defend tn the Oevelopmeut of our mineral resources. The labors of the scieutitic men, of Tevoj:uicd merit, who compose the corns of the ifeologiml Survey, during the first watun of their hebt operations and i'iuiries. appear to have beeu very comprehensive, ami w ill Boon le eimiauuicaied to toiiKrcss in a iiumler o volumes. Tiie Director of the survey recommends that the investigations, carried on by his bureau, which. h fur. have I cell conti ncii to the so-ca!Usl public land States aui Territories, be extended over the entire country, and that the necessary appropriation be made for this purpose. This would Iw particularly lieneliciul to the lrou. coal and other iuiumg interests of the Mississippi Valley and of the Kasieru and Southern estates. Thesubicct is coKiuiendsl to the careful consideration of ivmjjrcss. The Secretary of ibe Interior asks attention to the w ant of tin nit in the public buildings of tlie ( apilal. now existing w In progress of construction, for the aorommodaiioii of the clerical force employed and of the public records. Nec-s-sity ha compelled the renting of private buildIinr in dirt'ereut pans of the city fortbe loctiion of public otlitrs. for w bich a large amount of rent is aui ually aid, w hile the scpararlon of oflie-es belonging to the name iK'parluifut impelcs the transaction i f current litiinew. The Secretary suggcsLs that the blocks surrounding Lafayette Square, on the east, north and west, be purChased as the sites for new edifices for the accommodation of the (iovernuieut ortices. leaving the siuare itself intact : and that, if such buildintrs were cjustructetl upon a harmonious plan of arebiiec-ture, they would add much to the beauty of the Naiioual Capital, and would, together with the Treasury and the new State, Navy, and War Deparuuetit b.iiMing. form one uf the most imposing Ki-oupH f pithiir editic' in the world. The Commissioner of Atriiculture expresses the euufideut lelicf that his efforts in U half of thj pnsluc i.;i of our own sugar and tea have been eiicounuriuuly rewarded. The importance of the rvsttlu attaiuol have attracted murkei allcuii ui at home, and luve received the ?ecial consideration of forvlirii uatioiis. The Eiiccesiful culiivat ion of our own lea. and the manufai-turt' of our own xiiKar. would make a ii.Terenoe of many millio.sof dollars annually in the wtaltli of the Nation. The reort of the C-oinraisMoncr aks iittention articuhirly to the couciiiued prevalence of an nfectious and eontntriotts cattle discise, known and dreaded in .Europe and A-ia as cattle plague, or pleuro-piieumonia." A rtild type of this dica.--e iuccrtaia sections of cur country is the occasion of rr-at losi to our farraers, and of scrims diturbance t our t-nde with Urcat Hribiin, which furnishes a market for mt of our live stock and dressed meats.

Ivsii, Was more than SPJmn,'), and nearly double ihevnlue f.ir the same eriid iii 1ST'., an uucxamiled increase of export trade. Your early attention Is solicited to this itniatriaut inaitcr. The Commissioner of education reports n continued i:iere.i.e of public iuierest in educatiorml affiirs. and that the public schools feii'-Tallj throughout tlie country are well sustained. Industrial traiuinn i-t attraciiui; iteserve i atleuti in, and col lex es for instruction, theoretical and pra"tical. in agricnltun- and the mechanic arts, including the (iovcrnmeut school recently established for the instruction of Indian youth, areicaiuliig steadily iu public estimation. The Commissioner ask special attention to Ihe dcpada:iims committed on the land reserved for the future support of public instruction, aud to the very gient neei of helu from the Nation for schools in the Territories and in tlie Southern States. The recommendation heretoiore made, is repeated and nnroi. that an elucatioiinl fund bset apart 1mm the net proceeds of the sales of the public lainN Hiinual'.v. the inwiiie of which, and the remainder of the net annual proceeds, to be distributed on some satisfactory plan to the States and Territories and to the Ihstrict of Columbia. The miceess of the public schools of the LLdrict of Columbia, aud the progress made, under the intelligent direction of the Board of Kducatiou and tlie Superintendent, iu supplying the educational requirements of the listnct with thoroughly trained and ctticient teachers. is very gratifying. The acta of C-otirress, from time to time, donning public lauds to the several States aud Territories in aid of educational interests have proved to lie wise measures of public policy, resuUiui; in irrcat aud lasting benefit. It would seem to be a matter of slmi.le justice to extend the benefits of this legislation, the w isdom of which hius tjeeii. so fully vindicated by experience, to the Disi riet of Columbia. I azaln commend the general interests of the Pi-trict of Columbia to ihe favorable consideration of Congress. Tne artairs of the Idstrict. as shown by the reort of the Commissioners, are in a very satisfactory condition. In my annual me-i-wije heretofore, aud In my special message of lH-cemler 1., lsT'J, I have urged upon the attention of iaipress the necessity of reclaiming the marshes of the Potomac adjacent to the Capital, and I am constrained by its importance hi advert again to the iiibject. These llabj embrace an area of serral hundred acres. They are an iniedlme(it to the drainage of the city, and seriously impair Us health. It la believed tha', with this sutMtantial improvement of lis tiver front, the Capital would be, fu all reoecis, one of the mi t attractive cities in the world. Aside from its permanent population, this city Is necessarily the place of residence- of liersons from every section of the country, enaxed in the public servi?. Many others reside hre temporarily, for the transaction of business with the fjoveriimcnt. It should not be forgoUcn fhat the land acauired will probably be worth tlcotof leclalmimr it, and that the navigation of ihe river will be greatly impmverrt rhrrrt rre agalictnTlw the atrerrttna of t'ongreM to UiH'miJorta'i'Viif prompt pmrb-hm for this much-ueeUU: audi too long, dood improvement, 'iv : ; i: -1 "- The water upply of the city is lrjailcjüaCe. in

addition to the ordinary use throughout the city, the consumption by tkirerntneut is tveoeaswrily very great in the Navy Yard, Arsenal and tne various Departments, and a large quantity is required for the proper preservation of the numerous parks and the cleansing of sewers. I recommend that this subject receive the early atteutiou of Congress, and that. Iu making provision for an ihcTemed supply, such means be adopted as will have in view the future growth of the city. Temporary expedients for ituch a purpose can not but bo wasteful of money, and therefore uuwise. A more ample reservoir, with corre ponding facilities for keeptng it filled, should. In my judgment, be constructed. I commend again to the attention of l!ongreiM the aubject of the removal, from their present location, of the defiots of the several railroads entering the city; and I rsnew the recommendations of my former messj ges iu behalf of the erection of a building for tne Congressional Library, the completion of the Washington Monument, and of liberal appropriations iu uport of the benevolent, reformatory and penal institutions of the District. , RcTitr.ROKr B.

BEDITTIOX OF TAXES'. It appears from the foregoing statements that the surplus revenue, actual and estimati-d. for the fiscal years. lso, 1M and l..S2, afte rproviding for the sinking fund lor euch year. Is as follows: For the year ended June .TO. Ihso ?27.952,009 fi5 For the year ending June :!0, Insi ;s),P,115 52 For the year ending June . V), lo2 4s,445,277 72 This naturally present to Congress Ihe question whether the surplus revenue accruing after the present year should be applied to the further reduction of the public debt, or w hether taxes now inclosed should be repealed or modified to the extent of such surplus. The many and sudden changes that have heretofore occurred in the tunoiiuts realized from our system of taxation are a sufficient warning that revenue should not be surrendered unless it satisfactorily appears that the surplus is permanent, and not merely temporary. If the taxes iuipowd by existing laws are not oppressive In their nature, it is perhaps better t to bear with them than to endanger the ability of the tiovernment l meet the current appropriations and the fluking fund. A largo portion of thestirplnsof revenueoverexpendiiures is caused by the reduction of the rate of interest and the payment of the prlncii-al of the puolic debt. The reduction of annual interest caused bjy-efunding since March 1, ls77, is il4,2.0,4":5.50, and the saving of annual interest resulting from the payment of fclO-.Msv.K'iO of the principal of the public debt, since that date, is S. 1 11.737.50. The interest is likely to le still further reduced during the next veur in an amount estimated at ?! .101 - ! 429.50, by'the refunding of bond a hereinafter .1 t . . i . . . I . i-; . . i ...... i iui(kimh. io nie e.vicui oi iius nuuuui sating, amounting to ?.'.2..V:i.I.02u.50. the public extendilures will be iicniianeutlv diiniulshvd. The large increase of revenue from customs on a few articles during the last year may lie somewhat abnormal, and the estimates based upon it may not la reiilicd. It is a question for Congress to determine whether any material reduction should be made at a time when the whole surplus revenue may lie with great advantage applied directly to the payment of act ruing debt, and w hen such surplus Is an important element in aid of refunding. If it should be determined by Congress to reduce taxes, it is respectfully recommended that all the taxes- imposed by the internal revenue law other than those on hank circulation, and on spirits, tobucd. and fermented lbjuors be reiiealed. The tax on the circulation of National Ranks is levied partly n he nature of a moderate charge for a franchise conferre 1 by the tovernment, aud partly to furnish means to pay the expense of printing and Issuing National Hank noted.

EXPORTATION AND IMPORTATION OF CATTLE. In a letter of February 1, lo, from this Department to the speaker of ihe House of Representatives, the attention of Congress is called to the prevalence of the disease known as pleuropneumonia, or lung plague, in heat cattle, and some recommendation were made as to the pro"cr legislation on the subject. It may U' asiinied that this disease has never existed iu this country west of the Alleghany Mountains; and that it has not for it long lime existed in Canada, or in Ihis country r,cr the line of Caiiadiu The exportation of lire horred cuttle from the Culled Stales is very large, and is rapidly increasing, the cattle going mostly to (ire.at Ihitain. For the eight months ended August 31, is-srt, the value' of such animals exported whs 12 4'.2.S:7, which i nearly double the value of the exportation ior the same period in Hy an order of the Privy Council of Great Britain, all American cattle must be sUiughtered at the port of arrival within ten days. The cifcct of this order is to prevent the shipment of any but fat cattle; und it entails great loss as to that class of animals by cotnpeUiug the immediate hhiughter of siichasare injured, or become sb-k upon the voyage, and, therefore, of little value for food. It also prevent the owners trom driving the entile from tlie port ol importation Co a better market, or from keeping them until the market improves. Furthermore, there is a large demand In Kngland for store or slock cattle, to be fed aud fattened in that country for its own marketa. a uVniand which thin country could supply to an unlimited extent. It is believed that this trudc, if unrestricted, might far exceed the trade iu fat cattle. The losses and embarrassments by reason of the order for immediate slaughter are, commercially considered, very great. The British Uovernnieut. however. Is ready Ui rescind it when it may be done without da iger of spreading plenro-pneniuotiia in their country through im portations from the I'nitcd States. Tbe'uiicsiloii of the rescission of theorderhas been the subject of orli'.-ial discussion . between thU Government and the iJovcrnuieiit of Great Britain, as veil as in Parliament. It is believed that whenever Congress makes provision for the extinction or prevention of the disease, or for such sfftiritv of the great mtiies of travel fmm the West to the seaboard as w ill make it reason ably certain that the cattle shipped from our lorts, or any of them, will not carry Infection with them, the orrtcr of Council requiring immediate slaughter will be rescinded. The recoruinendatiou that a Commission be created, whose duty it shall be to invesligiUe reKrts of the existence of the disease, ami to c licet information respect! UK it, rvimrtiug the results to some Department for official publication is renewed. It Is further rf commended that such Commi&siou be authorised U co-operate with . . State, and . muuUilpal authoniies. and corporations and iersous engaged in the transportation of neat-cattle, and establish regulation for tne safe conveyance of such cattle from the Interior to the seaboard, and the shipment of them, so that they may not be exposed to the diee: and that such Commission also, may establish such quarantine stations and regulations as mav be deemed necessary to prevent the spread of the disease by imoorlntious from abroad. - Iris believed that the legislation thus Indicated, properly executed, will Induce the Government of ?ret Britain to rescind iu order for immediate KluuAter, and thns promote :i. nui min h",u"" i o very Unx increase In the exporuttorr cuttle Jroin tBls : coinBiryL-' v nein er; nippnw should go further, and undertake the extirpation f the disease lit the State where it now exists, 4s lutlou . of. more cmcalXr,U it u awmea bt to 1mvp that part ; oi iu udici ior uiuciwuuent consideration.

Attorney Oeneral Baldwin yesterday delivered opinions as follows: PRAIS'.OE ASsEPsMENTR. Unpaid assessments for drainage purposes, levied by Boards of County Commissioners, under the pmvisions of the act of March 9. 1S75 are taxes, and to be levied and collected as other taxes are levied and collected by law. it is the Auditor's duty to put these taxes upon the duplicate, and the duty of the Treasurer to collect them the same as other taxes. He must first demand payment, theu exhaust personal property, then return the proerty assessed as delinquent, then advertise four weeks, and in case of sale at the February sales and non-redemption, the purchaser acquires A title, which btauiU in the Käme category as other tax titles. SCHOOL ELECTIONS. The statute reads: "Whenever a vacancy occur in the oflice of County Superintendent by death, resignation or removal, the Trustees shall, on the notice of the County Auditor, assemble at the othce of the Auditor and till the vacancy for the unexpired term in the manner herein provided. The County Auditor shall be the clerk ol Mi id election, and give the casting vote in case of a tie. and feeep the record of such elections." The word election means an election by ballot: a tie means that there are two opposing candidates, each of whom have an equal number of ballots. A motion to appoint a candidate, mid an equal d'visioii upon such a motion, is not a tie, nor an election u ithin the meaning of this section. The statute means an e)ual division of ballots bet we n two opposing- candidates. In such eases alone does the Auditor, who is not otherwise a memlier of the Hoard, have a vote. Siction I. Artii-le X of the Constitution of Indiana reads: "IJio General Assembly shall provide by law for a uniform and equal vote of taxation and assessment." l'pin the constitutionality of the statutes already construed by me concerning discriminations ugainst "money loaned, stocks and bonds" In making assessments for taxes, and prohibiting; any deduction for bona tide indebtedness iu Mieii cases. I decline to express any ollicial opinion, as that question is now pending before the Supreme Court. . Meetinff of Electors. The meeting of the lectors of Indiana, chosen a month ago to cast the vote of the Sitate for President and Vice President, was held yesterday moriiinfr in the Criminal Court room. Among those present were Govcroor Gray. John C. New. W. W. Dudley, II II. Wolfe, W. R.
