FOREIGN CLAIMS.

Injuries unforeseen by the Government
and uninitiated by it may in some cases
have been inflicted upon the subjects or
citizens of foreign countries, both at sea
and on land, 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 upon subjects of the United
States, ne must be prepared to do justice
to foreigners.
If the existing judicial tribunals are
inadequate to this purpose, special
court may be authorized. with power to
hear and decide such claims, of the char
acter referred TO. as may have risen I'M
der treaties and public law. Conven-
tons for I'D ustlng clai ms
10y joint commission. have been
proposed to some governments. but no
definite answer TO the proposition has
yet been received from any. In the
course of the SESSION l shall probably
have occasion to request you to provide
indemnification to claims where DEGREES
of restitution have been rendered aud
awarded by the Admiralty Court, and in
other cases where this Government may
be acknowledged to he liable in princi-
pie, and where the amount of that liabil-
ity has been ascertained by an informal
arbitration.

TAX on CoNsuLs.

The proper officers of the Treasury
have deemed themselves required, by the
law of the United States npon the sub
ject, to demand tax upon the incomes
of foreign consus in this country
While such demand may not be in yio-
lation of public law or perhaps of any
existing treaty between the United
States and a foreign country, yet the exre-
diency of so far modifying the act so as to
exempt from tax the income of such Con-
suls. who are not citizens of the United
States, derived of the emolunents of
their office or for property not situated
in the United States, is submitted to
your serious consideration. l make this
suggestion upon the ground that other
countries exempt our Consuls from tax

HOMESTEAD ACT.

This policy has received its most sig-
nal and benificent illustration in the re-
cent enactment granting homesteads TO
actual settlers. Since the first day of JAN
uary last. the aforementioned quantity
of 1858 acres of land has been taken
up under its provisions. This fact, and
the amount Of sales, furnishes gratifying

ANOTHER REVIEW.

Seven months having been passed we
are permitted to make another review
The rebel borders are pressed still further
back, and by the complete opening of the
Mississippi river the country dominated
over by the rebellion is divided into two
distinct parts, and there is no practical
communication between them. Tennes-
see and Arkansas have been substantial
ly cleared of insurgents, and the citizens
in each who were strong advocates of
slavery at the beginning of the rebellion
now declare openly for emancipation in
their respective States. Of those States
not included in the Emancipation. Proc
lamation, Maryland and Missouri, neither

The Emancipation Proclamation, which
was issued in September, was running its
assigned period to the beginning of the
new year. A month later, the final pro-
clamation. intending the announcement
that colored men of suitable condition
would he received into the war service.
The policy of emancipation and of en-
pioyiug black soldiers, were to the failure
a new aspect, about which hope and fear
and doubt coutended in united conflict.
According to our political system, as
matter ofcivil administration, the Gener-
al Government had no power to effect
emancipation in any State; and though
for long time, it was fondIy hoped that
the rebellion could be crushed without re-
sorting to it as military measure, it was
all the while deemed possible that the
necessity for it might come, and that if it
should, the crisis of the contest would
then be presented. 1t came, as was ex-
pected. 1t was followed by dark and
doubtful DAYS.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
Delivered to the Thirty Eighth Con-
gress, December o. 1858.

Fsl!o,v Citizens o. The Senate AID House Of
Representatives,:
Another year of health and of suffi-
GENTLY abundant harvest has passed.
Especially for the improved condition of
our national affairs, our renewed and
profound gratitude to God is due. We
remain in peace and friendship with for
eign powers; the efforts of disloyal citi-
gems of the United States TO involve US
in foreign wars, to aid inexcusab!e iusur-
reetion, have been unavailing.
