States, if essential but very cheap, assistance
can be offered them. 1t is easy to see that
under the sharp discipline Of civil war, the
nation is beginning new life. This noble
effort demands the aid. and ought to receive
the attention and support fthe Government.
Injuries, unforeseen by the Government, and
unattended, may, in some cases, have been
inflicted upon the subjects or citizens of for.
eign countries, both at sea and on the land
and by persons in the service of the United
States. As this Government expects redress
from other powers when similar injuries are
inflicted by persons in their service, on citi-
zens Of the United States, We must be p-epar.
ed to do justice TO foreigners. 1.-THE exist
ing judicial tribunals are inadequate to this

sition has yet been received from any. Du

other cases where this Government may be
acknowledged to be liable in principle, and
where tho amount Of that liability has been
ascertained by an informal arbitration, the
proper officers of the treasury have deemed
themselves required by the law of the
United States, upon the subject, to demand
tax upon the incomes Of foreign consuls in
this country. While such demand may
not be an indication Of public law or perhaps
Of any existing treaty between the United
States and foreign country, the expediency
of 50 far modifying tho act as to exempt from
tax the income Of such consuls as are not
citizens Of the United States, derived from
the enioluments of their Office or from prop
erty not situated in the United States, is sub
mitted to your serious consideration.

courtesy which ought to be reciprccated,
exempts our consuls in all other countries
from taxation to the extent that Is indicated.
The United States, think, ought not to be
exceptionally illibcral to international trade
and commerce.
The operations Of the Treasury during the
last year have been successfully conducted.
The enactment by Congress Of . National
Banking Law has proved a valuable support
Of the public credit, and the general legisla-
ton in regard to loans, has fully answered the
expectations of its favorers. Some amend
ments may be required to perfect existing
laws, but no changes in their principles or
general scope is beloved to b needed. Since
these measures have been in operation, all
demands on the treasury, including the pay
Of the army and navy, have been promptly
met and fully satisfied. No considerable body
Of troops, it is believed, were ever more am
ply provided for, and more literally and
punctually paid, and, it may be added, that
by no people were the burdens incident to q
great war ever more cheerfully borne.
| The receipts for the year from all sources,
including loans and balance in treasury al
its commencement, were 500. l 10 ,567, 4s6.-
