 After so much the government conld not. if il would. maintain war against them. The loyal people would rot sustain or allow it If questions should remain we would adjust them by the peaceful means of legislation, conier. ence courts and votes. Operating only in con. stitntional and lawful channels, some certa' n and other possible questions are and would bs beyond the executive power to adjust, as fot instance. the admission of meml CTS into Con. giess and whatever might require the appro. priation of money
 e The executive power itself would be greatly diminished by the cessation of actual wafi Paf- dons and remissions of forfeiture, however. would sill be within executive control. =. In what spiris and temper this control trol would be enforced, can be fairly judged of by the past. year ago. general pardon and esty, upon specified terms, were offered to all except certain designated classes, and is was at the same time made known that the excepted classes were still within contemplation of special clenency. -, -
 During the year, msny availed themselves of the general provision, and many more would, only that the signs of bad faith m some led to such precautionary meausures as rendered the practical process less easy and cei tain. During the same time also, special pardons have beer, granted to individuals If the excepted class. and no voluntary application has been denied.
 Thus, practically. the door has been for full year open to all, except such as wers not ID condition to make free choice, that is. such as were in custody or under constraint. lt Id still 80 open to all, but the time may come. when public duty shall demand that 1t bs closed, and that in lieu of more vigorous meas, ures than heretofore shall be adopted.
 TEE PRESIDENTS POLICY.
 In presenting the abandonment of armed res sistance to the national government on the part of the insurgents. as the only indispensa. ble condition to ending the war on the part of the government, ietract nothing heretofore said as to slavery.
 1repeat the declaration made year ago, and that while remain in my present position, shall not attempt to retract or modify the Emancipation Proclamation. Nor shall re. .urn to slavery any person who Is free by the terms of that proclamation. or by any of the acts of Congress.
 If tte people should. by whatever mode or means, make it an executive duty to re.enslave such persons, another, and not must be theft instrurlentsto perform it.
 In stating a si gle condition Of peace, mean simply to say that the war will cease on the part of the government whenever 1t shall have ceased on the part of those who began 1t.

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY OF TH6
 TREASURY

The Secretary of the Treasury in his report, reviews the financial measures adopted since the outbreak of the rebellion, though in seys. rll cases authorizing the issue of bonds at length periods pay ment of principal at haturs ity in coin, is not especially provided. The omission, it is believed, Was eeidental. as there conld have been no intention to make difference between different classes of sscuri- ties in this respect. The Secretary recotns mends that all doubt be removed by legisla- tion The act of June lst authorizes the Sec | retary to dispose of any bonds known ss five ! twenties remaining unsold. It is at least questionable whether by this clause, power is conferred to dispose ot an amount beyond that fixed by existing laws Additional legslation may remove that doubt, should Congress think 1t advisable. otherwise they may be cancelled. Tne Secretary says $s6O, O,OJ0, ,OOO at least should be realized from internal daties. It is for Congress 10 select sources and devise modes in which this most desrablG result can be obtained. He suggests whether the income tax should not be collected from all without exemption. In connection with the subject of increased taxation and the necessity of provid ling additional revenue from ordinary sources. the Secretary calls attent on to our public do- main, and more especially to that portion of ik abounding in precious and other metals which. by the policy of the government has been TO. served to the ratien. He hopes that Congress may be able to devise some mode by which these lands may be made available to an en- tent in some measure proportionate to their yearly production. He suggests that . board of otlcers, as commissioners of sinking fund, anu whether such income as may be received from the public domain from sales, UT in the shape of rents or royalty may not be benefeis ally appropriated to the same purpose: As to foreign loans, he says DO possible benefit to De derived has not seemed salicient 10 csnnsets balspoe other and opposing ,onsiae5alione'As 1 GeasiHrt8 sn ~ Rsess

To this az ain should De added the number of all soldiers in the field from Massachusetts Rhode Island, New Jersey. Delaware, Indiana, Illinois and California, wh by the laws of these States could not vote away from their Eomes, and whose numbers ca mot be less than ninety thousand. Nor yet is this All. The number in organized territories is triple now what it was four years ago. while thousands, white and black, join us as the national arms press back the insurgent lines. So much is shown affirm ativeiy and negatively by the cleo tion. It is not material to inquire how the in crease has been produced, or to show that it would have been greater but for the war, whieh is probably true. The important fact remains demonstrated that we have more men now than we had when tue war began that we are not exhausted, nor in process of exhaus tion that we are gaining strength. and may, if need be, maintain tie contest indefinitely This as to men
 NATIONAL RESOURCES UNExHAUsTED.
 Material resources are now more complete and abundant than ever. The national resour-- ces, are then, unexhausted, and, as we believe inexLaustib!e the public purpose to re estab fish and maintain the national authority is unchanged, and, as we believe unchangable - The manller, of continuing the eifort remains to choose.
 No PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
 On careful consideration of all the evidence accessible, it seems to me that no attempt al negotiation with the insurgent leader could re suit in any good. He would accept of nothing short of the severance of tho Union: His dec arations to this effect are expiict and oft-re. peated. He does not attempt to deceive us.-- He affords us no excuse to deceive ourselves. .- We cannot voluntarily yield it. Between hin and us the issue is distinct, simple, and ihaexi ble It is an issue which can be tried by wal and decided bJ victory. If we yield we aEs beaten. If the Southern people fail him, he Is beaten. Either way 1t would bs the victory and defeat following war.
 HOW PEACE MAT CONE.
 What is true. however, of him who heads the nsurgent cause, is not arrily true of those who follow. Although he cannot re-accept ths Union. they can. Some of them. We know already desire peace and reunion. The number of such may increase. They can at any mo ment have peace. simply by laying down theii arms. and submitting to the national authority ] under tho constitution.
