co-operaa vn ot cne secretary or war. Commander GtforgeW. Coffin was placed in command of t'ue Alert, and Lieut. W. H. Emory in command of the Bear. The Thetis was entrusted to Commander Winfield 8. Copley, to whom was assigned the superintendence of the entire expedition. Immediately upon its arrival at Uperaavik, the fleet began the dangerous navigation of Melville bay, and, in spite of every, obstacle, reached Littleton island on June 22— a fortnight earlier than any vessel had before attained that point On the same day it crossed over to Cape Sabine, where Lieut. Greely and tl other survivors of his party were discovered. After taking on board the living and the bodies of the dean the relief ships sailed for Bt Johns, where they arrived on July 17. They were appropriately received at Portsmouth, N. H., on Aug. 1, and at New York on Aug. 8. One of the bodies was landed at the former ^jlaee. Hie others were pnt on shore at Governor's island, and, with the exception of one which was interred in the National cemetery, were forwarded thence to the destination indicated by friends. The organisation and conduct of this relief expedition reflect great credit upon all who contributed to its anweoss. ,.-h

THE NAVY.

In this, the last of the state messages that I shall have tho honor to transmit to the congress of the United States, I can not too strongly urge on its attention the duty of restoring our navy as rapidly as possible to the high state of efficiency which formerly characterized it. Asrthe long peace that has has lulled us into a sense of fancied security may at any time ba disturbed, it is plain that the policy of strengtusijing this arm of the service, is dictated by considerations of use and economy o^just regard for our future tranquility, and of true appreciation of the dignity and honor of the republic.

THE POSTAL SBRVTCK,

Tho report of the postmaster general acquaints you with the present condition and needs of the postal service. It discloses the gratifying fact that tho loss of revenue from the reduction of tbe rate in latter postage, as recommended in my message of December, 1882, and effected by the act of March 3, 1883, has been much less than was generally anticipated. My recommendation of this reduction WAS based upon tbe belief that the actual falling off in receipts for letter postage for the year immediately succeeding the change of the rate would be $3,000,000. It has provod to be only $9,275,000. This is a trustworthy indication that the revenue will soon be restored to its former volume by the natural increase of sealed correspondence. I confidently repeat, therefore, tne recommendation of my last annual message, that single rate postage upon drop letters be reduced to 1 cent wherever payment of 2 cents is now required by law. The double rate is now only exacted at offices where the carrier system is in operation, and it appears that at these offices the increase in the tax upon local letters defrays the cost not only of their own collection and delivery, but of the collection and delivery of all other mail matter. This is an inequality that aught no longer to exist

I approve the recommendations of the postmaster general that the unit of weight the rating of first-claSs matter should be one ounce instead of one-half ounce, as it now is. In view of the statistics furnished by the department, it may well be doubted whether the change would result in any loss of revenue that it would greatly promote the convenience of the public is beyond dispute. The free delivery system has been lately applied to five cities, and the total number of offices in which it is now in operation is 159. Experience shows that its adoption, under proper conditions, is equally" an accommodation to the public, and an advautage to the postal service. It is more than self-sus-taining, and for the reasons urged by the postmaster general, may properly be extended. It is the opinion of that officer, that it is proper to provide means whereby exceptional dispatch in dealing with letters in free-delivery offices may be secured by the payment of extraordinary postage. This scheme might be made effective by the employment of a special stamp whose cost should be commensurate with the expense of the extra service. In some of the large cities private express companies have undertaken to outstrip tho government mail carriers by affording for the prompt transmission of letters better facilities than have hitherto been at the command of the postoffice. It has always been the policy of the government to discourage such enterprises and in no better way can that policy be maintained than in supplying the public with the most efficient mail service that, with due regard to its own best interests," can be furnished for its accommodation. ,,

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.

The attorney general renews the recommendation contained in his report of last year touching the fees of witnesses and jurors. He favora radical oh a? ies in the FREE DILI, tne aaopcion ot a system by wmcn attorneys and marshals of the United States should bo compensated solely by salaries, and the erection by the government of a penitentiary for the confinement of offenders against its laws.

THE INTERIOR DEPARTMENT. Of the varied governmental concerns in cfc arge of the interior department, the reports of it3 secretary presents an interesting summary. Among the topics deserving particular attention, I refer you to his observations respecting our Indian affairs, the pre-emption and timber culture acts, the failure of railroad companies to take title to lands granted by the government, and the operations of the pension office, the patent office, the census bureau, and the bureau of education.

THE INDIANS AGAIN.

Allusion has been made already to the circumstance that, both as between the different Indian tribes and as between Indians and the whites, the past year has been one of unbroken peace. In this circumstance the president is glad to find a justification for the policy of the government in dealing with the Indian question, and a confirmation of their views wnich were fullv expressed in his first communication to the forty-seventh congress. The secretary urges anew tie enactment of a statue for the punishment of crimes com mitted on Indian reservations, and recommends the passage of the bill, now pending in the house of representatives, for the purchase of a tract or 18,000 square milos from the Sioux reservation. Both of these measures aro worthy of approval

I concur with him also in advising the repeal of the pre-emption law the enactment of statutes resolving the present legal complications, touching lapsed grants to railroad companies, and tne iunding of the debt of the several pacific railroads under such guaranty as shall effectually insure its ultimate payment

MORMONISM AND POLYGAMY. Tbe repo, of the Utah commission will be i-eaJ vritn .nterest It discloses tbe results of recert legislation looking to the prevention and punishn jnt of polygamy in that terr| tory. I still b. eve that if that abominably practice can be suppressed by law, it can only the most radical legislation consistent with the restraints of the constitution. I agais recommend, therefore, that congress assume absolute political control of the Territory of Utah, and provide for the appointment of a commission with such governmental powers as in its judgment may justly and wisely be pat into their hands.

MORE ABOUT FOREIGN TRADE. In tbe course of tbis oommnmcation reference has mora than once been made to tbe policy of this government aa ragarda the •Ttennw nf fi'MaatfU trade, ft

should in my opinion, underlie our national efforts in tbis direction. The main conditions of the problem may be thus stated: \Ve are a people engaged in mechanical pursuits and fertile, in invention. We cover a vast extent of territory rich in agricultural product* and in nearly all tbe raw materials necessary for successful manufacture. We have a system of productive establishments more than sufficient to supply our own demands the wages of labor are nowhere else so great: the scale of paying of oar artisans classes is such as tends to secure their personal comfort and tbe developement of those higher morals aad tbe intellectual qualities that go to the imdrfng of a good citizen our system of tax and tariff legislation is yielding A revenue which is in excess of the present needs of the government

These are elements from which it is sought to devise a scheme by which, without unfavorably the condition of the workingmen, our merchant marine shall be reised from its enfeebled condition and new markets provided for tbe sale beyond our borders of the manifold fruits of our industrial enterprises. The problem is complex and can be solved by no single measure of innovation or reform. The countries of the American continent and tbe adjacent islands are for the United States the natural market of supply and demand. It is from that we should obtain what we do not produce, or do not produce in sufficiency, and it is to them that the surplus productions of our fields, our mills and our workshops should flow, under conditions that will equalize or favor them in comparison with foreign competition.

RECIPROCITY TREATIES.

Four paths of policy seem to point to this end: First a seaies of reciprocal commercial treaties with the countries of America which shall foster between us and them an unhampered movement of trade. The conditions of these treaties should be tho free admission of such merchandise aa this country does not produce in return for admission froo or tinder a favored schema of duties of 6to~^jrou&cts, the benefits of such exchange to apply on these goods carried under the flags of the parties to the oontract the removal on both sides from vessels so privileged of all tonnage dues and national imposts, so that their vessels may ply unhindered between our ports, and those of other contracting parties, though without infringing on the reserved home coasting trade the removal or reduction of burdens on the exported products of those countries coming within the benefits of the treaties and the avoidance of tho technical restrictions and penalties by which our intercourse with those countries is at present hampered.

Secondly, the establishment of the consular service of tne United States on a salaried footing permitting the relinquishment of consular fees not only as respects vessels under the national flag but also as respects vessels of tho treaty nations carrying goods entitled to the bone fits of the treaties.

Thirdly, the enactment of measures to favor tho construction and maintenance of a steam-carrying marine under the flag of the United States.

Fourthly, the establishment of a uniform currency basis for tho countries of America, so that the coined products of our mines may circulate on equal terms throughout the whole system of commonwealths. Tnis would revive a monetary union of America whereby the output of the bullion-produc-ing countries and the circulation of those wnich yield neither gold nor silver could be adjusted in conformity with the population, wealth and commercial needs of each. As many of tbe countries furnish no bullion to the common stock, the surplus production of our miue^ aud mints might thus be utilized, and a step taken toward the general remonetization of silver. To the accomplishment of these ends, so far as can be attained by seperate treaties, the negotiations already concluded and now in progress have been directed and the favor with which this enlarged policy has thus far been received, warrants the belief that its operations wjll ere long embrace all, or nearly all, the countries of this hemisphere.

It is by no means desirable, however, that the policy under consideration should be applied to those countries alone. The healthful enlargement of our trade with Europe, Asia, and Africa should be sought by reducing tariff burdens on such of their wares as neither we nor the other American states are fitted to produce, and thus enabling ourselves to obtain in return a better market for our supplies of food, of raw materials and ot the manufactures in which we exceL

It seems to me that many of the embarrassing elements in the great national conflict between protection and free trade may thus be turned to good account, that the revenue may be reduced so as no longer to overtax the people, that protective duties may be retained without becoming burdensome, that our shipping interests may be judiciously weighed, the currency fixed on firm basis, and above all such a unity of interests established among the states of the American system as will 'be of great and of ever-increasing advantage to them all. All treaties in the line of this pblicy which have been negotiated, or are in process of negotiation, contain a provision deemed to be requisite under the clause of the constitution limiting to the house of representatives the authority to originate bills for raising revenue.

CIVIL SERVICE.

On the 29ih of February las£ I transmitted to the congress the first annual report of the Civil Service commission, together with communications from the heads of several executive departments of the government, respecting the practical workings of the law under which the commission had been acting. The good results therein foreshadowed nave been more than realized. The system has fully answered the anticipations of its friends in securing competent and faithful public servants, and in protecting the appointing officers of the government from tbe pressure of personal importunity, and from the labor of examining the claims and pretentions of rival candidates for public employment The law has had the unquali fied support of the president and of the heads of the several departments, and the members of the commission have performed their duties with zeal and fidelity. Their report will shortly be submitted, and will be accompanied by such recommendations for enlarging the scope of the existing statute as shall command themselves to the executive and the commissioners charged with Its administration.

A NATIONAL BANKRUPT LAW. In view of the general and persistent demand throughout tbe commercial community lor a national oanicrupt law, 1 nope tuai. tne differences of sentiment which have hitherto prevented its enactment may not outlast the present sessions.

THE CHOLERA.

The pestilence which for the past two years has been raging in the countries of the east recently made its appearance in European ports with which we are in constant communication. The then secretary of the treasury, in pursuance of a proclamation of tbe president, issued certain regulations restricting and, for a time p.-ohibiting the importation of rags and the admission of baggage of immigrants and travelers arriving from infected quarters. Le6t this course may have been without strict warrant of law 1 approve the recommendation of the present secretary, that congress take action in the premises, *nA I also recommend the immediate adoption of such measures as will be likely to ward off the dreaded epidemic and to mitiigate its severity in case it shall unhappily extend to our shores.

MISCELLANEOUS SUGGESTIONS.

Certain of the measures that seem to ma necessary and expedient I have now, in obedience to the constitution, recommended for your adoption. As respects others of no lass importance, I shall content myself with renewing the recommendations already made to the ooogress without restating the grounds upon which such recommendations ware based. The preservation of forests on the publio domain, the granting of government aid for popular education, tbe amendment of the federal constitution so as to make effective the disapproval, by the president, of particular ideas in appropriation bills: the enactment of statutes in regard to the filling of vacancies in the presidential office, and the determining of vexed questions respecting presidential inability, are measures which may justly r&eive your serious considerations.

Harvey, met at 2 o'clock tnis afternoon in the parlor of the National Hotel to witness an exhibition of the power of Lulu Hurst' "the Georgia wonder." Miss Hurst is a stoutly built country girl2 apparently about twenty and wears her hair flowing down her back* Her first test is to have some men take hold of a chair with both hands and endeaver, not to keep her from taking the chair from him, for she does not try to do that, but stand still. She then places both her hands on the chair and in a short time the sensation is that of a strong electric current which it is almost impossible to resist. After tbe current is established the takes off one hand and then leads or pushes her subject around the room. There are various other tests, but in one with Dr. Beard, Miss Hurst was unavoidably struck in the eye with the end of a can* they were wratling with and could not further proceed. She promtsas to lift two heavy men in a chair tonight by merely placing oae baad tat oa the side.
