The police seized him, when O'Dcnnell held tip his right band, the fingers exterded pnd shouted: "Three cheers for old Treland! Good-bye United States!

The prisoner,? bouting, cursing and tt-ngRling, was forcibly removed by the police, amid the most fearful confusion and the flamming cf doors.

THE MESSAGE.

A Condensed IteMrt of President Arthur's Allium! Communication to Congress. Washington, Der. I, Tlie mesenga of President Arthur was submitted to Congress this afternoon. It is a veiy lengthy document. The following is a complete condensation of the message: Oflt FOREIGN RELATIONS. An unusually large proportion is devoted to a prefectation of onr relations with foreign nations, and a statement of the various diplomatic schemee. The message assures Congress that both do. mestic and foreign affairs maintain a most favorable appect. During the year consular and commercial treaties lav been perfeetrd with S-;rvia, nrvi a consular treaty with Boumhnis; also treaties with Cor-pa snd Ma-lRcascar, a bonndarv nirv?y treaty with Mexico, a trademark convention and sunn emenr.try extradition treaty with Spfi'n, and a convention exten lint' the duration of the AmerWnFrsrw ch in!" commission hive been pr' claimed The f-f Vi pen rti."le of the treifv of TVpshirurt.-iu with Oret Britain will Vrognted .Tn'y 1. by n tice from Ijordou.

The sngKestion is renee: that dis-re'ionary power be vet-ted in therxcutie ti nppoitt delegates to social and scit-n.itio congretsep, initaticns for which are being constantly rwcive i, and an appropriation made to pay the expenses ( f the delegnt' s. l-i concluding this portion tf the message President Arthur says: Is it not advisable to provide soma means of equitable letaliation in our relation with governments wliich discriminate against our own? If, for example the executive were empowered to apply to Spani-h vessels and cargcfs from Cuba and Porto Pico the same rules of treat-n-eut -and scale ot penalties for technical fuul.s which are applied to our vessels and or1 goes iu the autillep, a resort t that course might not tie barren of gootl results.

FIKXNCIAD MEASrKUS. The revenue for the present fiscal year is "t;maret at 55 "V!lH.HJ0; expenditure s, S2r.S.f)0,P,0!l; sinkintr fund estimate, 845,. S?o, 741.07; leaving a bnluneof 830. 181'258.tl3. If the reuenue for the Atical year which will end on June 30, 18JV5, be esti mated npon the bnss jnf esiet-.n laws, the Secretary of the Treasury is of the o piuion that for tlmt vear the receipts will exceed by $60,0(10,000 the ordinary expenditures, including the nmonnt de?voted to the "intvinsr fund. Hittierto t je surplus a rapidly ss it has nccnmniafeel lisis bee n elyvo'ed to the reduction et i Tie nationnl debt. As a result,. the only Ijoti.Is now outstandine', which are redeemable at the pleasure of the government, are the three per cents, amountinijto about 8305,(KX),00lt; the four and etne half per cents, amounting to 8250.000,000 and 8737.000,(K of four ier cents are not pavabte until 1801 and 1897 respectively. If the surplus shall hereafter be ss large as the TfeRsury estimates now indicnte, the 3 per cent, bonds may all be reileemed t eat four years before any of the four nnd one-half per cents can be called in. The latter, at the same rafe of accumulation o surplus, can be paid at niaturitj-. and the moneys requisite for the redemption of the four per cents, will be in the treasury many years before these obligations become payable. There are cogent r a-onp, however,- little national indebtedness shonld not be thus rapidly extinguished. Chief among them is the fact thst only by excessive taxation is such rnpklity attainable. In a communication to th coi.Rfe8 at its Inst session I rerfmmended that all exciee tuxes bo Abolished, except those relating to distilled snir'ts, and that, substantial reduction also b-i mi do in tho revenues from custom. A statute has since been enscteel by which the annual tax nnd tar id receipts of the government bav ien cut down to the extent rf at least 50 000 -000 or 8G-i,000,000. While I have no doubt that (-till further reductions may be wisely made, I do uot advise the adop tioo, at this session, of any measure for a targe dimunitioo-of the National revenue. The results of the legisintion vt the In. t fes-ioo of the congress have not, as yet, become sufficiently nppir -nt to jntify n r.-itlical revision or sweeping m eli Scat ion of the existing law. In the interval which mint elap?e before the effects of the net of Marcri 3, 188. can be Ascertained, a portion, at-lea;t of ihe surplus revenues rnriv t,. widely, f.-nlied fo the long m-g-j lectod duty of rekibitating enr navy and

f oar hubon. Tfds is a matter to wijich I shall again t drert. I Immeiliately associated with the financial subject just oisw-ed of, ia the important question: Ybat legislation; ia needed regarding the national currency?" The ngcreiate amount of bonis tio-oe on elet it iu the treasury t suppert the j national bank circulation is abont S:t.Hl,- I OOn.CrO. Nearly 2tK),Xt0,(K0 of this! amemnt consists of three percfnts ,wiich j as already stated, are payable at the ; p'cHSuro i f the government, an i arei like- ' ly te y. crdlfd u within ls? than fenr ; ye-Mrs, nnle-is, mearitime, th turp'ris rev en n ee shall t-e decreiiscd. The p ! nbio effect of such an extensive rt.'tireuint of securities which are the 1 :iris of Intior ul j bank circulation, would I e sucbf a cou- I tracti- n t;f the volume of nio-v n to 1 trodnce grave commercial en'l nr.-ass-ments. Blow can the elanger be obviated? The most effectual plan, and o ie whose adontion nf the earlb et practicable opportunity I sh 11 heartily epprove, has already been indicated. It the reruues eif tle next four vears shall be kept nbtannally commensnrate with the expenpec, the volume of circulation will not be likely to snt"'r any material distnrlance; tmt if on the other hand there shall be great delay in reducing taxation it will become necesfary to either substitute some other form of currency in place of the national bunk notes, or m-ike important changes in the law by which their circnl iti n is now controlled. In my judgment the latt- r course is far preferable. I commend to jour attention the very interesting and tbouyhful enges tioa upon this subject w Inch appear.' in the secretary's report. The objections which he urges against the accept nr. v f of any other securities than the ubiintiot'S of the government itself as t e ' na-o.-.tiou for National Bunk cu"i-.laUo i se-cni ro n e ii fu- rable. l or advt-.f aajj I t he thrrarcrx'.l tronblt,two c i'i-sss uv j be er, sngg.-hte.i. euhereif which is proba- ! biy fea:-ible. One is the wiii.uvii! Le i boudi having many years to run, b firing j u low rate of interest and eschauRable eu ppe-cititd terms fer tuos now out. The tnor court-e, which commends ielt to mv own judgment as the; better, is the e-actmeut of aluw r-peii'ing the tax on circulation, mid peruiit'ing the banks to issue uot- s fetr an r mount equal to IK) percent. -f the market value, instead of now the fsce vidne, of deposited tHiuds. I at:rto with t";e secretary iu the belief t!i:it the mi -priou of this plan would affoidthe necessary rein f. Tin? traiue ixinnAii. The trade do hir was coineel for t oe nnrpo.e of trnffn in countries where silver parsed f.t i s vain? as asc; rtame.l by its wtigbt r iid fineiM ss. It never had a legal tender quality. L irg unmbers of these coins entereJ, how ever, into the volume cf our currency. By common consent their circulMtion iu oomestij trade baa now re-.se I, ard they have thus become a distu-biug eleo-cnt. Ihey should not ba len-.'cr pi'i-mitttiel to embarrass oar ouricicy tystem. 1 r: commend that prov.sion for their Teception by the treasury and the imnt as bullion r t" a smhll perctuitav C rbove th". curre nt market price of silver of like fineness be made. 1E1ABTMEXT KKPORTS AND SfOOESTIONS j The President endorsee the recemmeui dntion that poorer lie give i the, executive to reduce the number of custom districts, j The nrm? iiett of coast defenses and Im- ? proving tin torpedo service is urged; a'-o, the betsntifil eucourHceiaent ot the oi-jramaation if fctate j.uUif.ivt Lil j lie;.iciic t -1 fr-r to impress npon j the attention of Oenresa the necessity of continue J progress in th; reconstruction cf the navy.

The iittorney-geucrai's j r"',ommt-ndrtioTi that the compenntion i of United Hra'es attorneys and marshals b lixe-l by salary iustesd of fees, is eni eior.sa.J. Attention is called to the re commendations of the secretary of the inrerier nsprotirg tho Indinu quet.iion, respecting pre-emptiou and timber crdture acts, and measure's to prevent pension fraud -I. The question ia ngain submitted to Congress whe'her some federal aid should not be extended to public primary education wherever adequate provision has not been made. THE MOKMOXS. Upon the Mominn Question, the President asks tho repeal of the net upou which the existing gov. rnroent of Utah eippends, the assumption by the National Legislature of the entire political control ef the territory, ai d the establishment of a comm sion with such powers aud duties as r hiill be delegated to it by law. THE POSTAL XELEOj-.APH. Snch reflection as I have been able to jzivt to this subject since my Inst annu'l Tpnppuge lr s not led me to change tho view wh'oh I there expressed. In dissenting from the recommendations of the then Postmasfer-gt neial that the government assume the same control over the telegraph, which it has always exercised over the mail. Admitting that its authority in tho premises is as ample as has ever been claimed for it.it would not, in my judgment, be a wise use of that, authority to purchase or assume control of existing telegraph lines.or to construct others with a view of entering into general competition with private enterprise. The objecti ons which may be justly urged against either of the projects, and in eleed against any system which would require an enormous increase in the civil eervice, do not, however, apply to soma of the plans which have lately provoked public comment and eliscussion. It has been claimed, for example, that Congress might wisely authorize the Poetmastergeucrai to contract with soma private persons or corporations f r the? transmission of messages at specified rates and under government supervision. Various "chemes of the same general nature, but wnteiy eimenng in their special charac teristics, have been suggested in the pub lic prints anti tne arguments by wlucb mey nave been supported and opposed

ii.ive ciouDTiess attracted attention. ii ia likely that the whole subject will be considered by yon at the present seiion. In the nature of things it involves so many questions of detail that your deliberations would probably be fiided slb'htly, if at all, by any particular suggestions which I might now submit. I avow my belief, however, that the government should le authorized by law to exercise some sort of supervision over inter-state telegraph communication. I express the hope that for attaining that end some measure may be devised which will secure your approval. VAPIOUS SUGGESTION!. The co-operation of congress is asked in investigating the causes of contagious diseases smonp cattle, and finding methods for their prevention and cure. It is earnestly recommended that Congress put Alaska nuder the protection of law. Insofar is its constitutional authority will permit. Congress i-hemld protect the people Rt lare in th-ir interstate traffic against acts 1 1 h:j -hum xilnch the state governments bre powerless to prevent. The necessity of v ithiio'iJmg fiom public sales the timber lands of the northwest, the eafahhsiio g there of a forest preserve and of encouraging tie pirservation of forests all ever the country is strongly presented. The civil service act is working smooth' v r.ud the F.-cc'dent is persuaded that, its effects have thus far proved beneficial. He strongly nrgeB npon Congress the parage of the bill, which went through tha Senate last session, regulating the Presidential succession.

Itow faithfully this program was carried out the sequel will show. Wbnt tvas r.t the time repardeel as a sententious pieiO of bauinayo ha3 now been teslizeel as tho cbm foresbadowing: of a blood v rut'' an (irganized system of duplicity practiceelby onr opponents whereby m black j uictricta tucy appeaieu to Diacss ror support on the ground toat our pirty gave them on recognition and used them as mere toeds and cuts paws, while st the same time iu white elistricts their appeals weie mace to every prejudice of race to 68vc the whites from an alleged purpose ou our part to elovata the blacks above them. Con(emporaneous with these appeals, sensational circulars from Danville Cumberland and elsev.-hero filieel with false statements of wrongs and outrages committed by blacks, cartexms depicting negroes punishing white children, pictures of negro men with a white child on one kneo and a black child on the other, infamous perjuriea as to tho utterances of our publio speakers, anil lie's great and s'rall, calculated to inflame race prejudice, were spread broadcast throng) the white districts of the state, backed np by corrup tion money without stint, whi'e tliev j were studiously suppressed in the black districts and their absence supplic-d by double funds of money to buy or bully the blacks. As the excitement thus begotten became more intense, and as the buying of blacks lecame more and more apparently impracticable, the violent policy become the mora necessary to intimiuHte the blacks and inflame the white arms began to pour ino the eouth side regions. The supply of small arms in our largr cities was exhausted, and the demand extendexl as fur as Baltimore, until one of the democratic headquarters, within twe-nty miles of Richmond, had forty 6tands of muskets and the Danville region was a walking arsenal. The cry was, "White men should rule or die." The announcements that a war of races was npon ns swelled in nnmlicr and ferocity. Threats of the lives of our leaders became more common than any other argument. Murder in cold blood began in Madison county days before it was repeated in Madison. The massacre in Danville ia dignifiea by Bourbouism with the name of riot. The facts as gathered from al! sonrces, are that npon Saturday eveniug preceding the election, just after the Danville negroes had received their weekly pay and were buying their Sunday supplies in a crowded market place a white man appeared, had an altercation with a negro and wh;pred him. The fight was ended nnd no other negroes came to the rescue ot the punished man. But the program was not in terrupted by this circumstance. An arm ed gathered of the "best people" of the "best and bravest" was conveniently near and in a moment a murderous throng poured out of the building where they were asaeunbled, opening1 a deadly fire npon the nn armed, defenseless and flying negroes. How many were killed no one knows and no one will probably learn the truth, for the condition of things still in Dan villa ia such that the truth can not be learned. That they were shot in the back like doga while rnnning away; that no pistol shot was fired by a black man; that no white man was injured; that for days the poor victims were found dead in alleys, in ware houses and under houses like poisoned rats; that the negr.-es fled to the woods to the state ot North Carolina; to the four winds of heaven. Thesa are a few of the facts of this blordy wholesale murder which was telegraphed far and near by Bourbons as an irsolent uprising of the blacks against the whites." Honors at Wholesale.
