The Secretary of the Interior in his report
gives valuable information in reference to the in
terests confded to the supervision Of his depart
ment, and reviews the operations Of the Land
Office, Pension Office and the Indian Bureau
During the fiscal year ending June 80, 1868,
$500, 100 acres Of public land were disposed Of
The entire cash receipts Of the General Land
Office for the same period were 81 $50, 745,
being greater by S2Si ,S6S than the amount re-
allied from the same source during the previous
year.
The entries under the Homestead law cover
2s32s ,923 acres, nearly one-fourth Of which vas
taken under the act Of June p, 1866. which ap-
lies only to the States Of Alabama, Mississippi
Louisiana, Arkansas and Florida.
On the 30th Of June, 1868, l69, 643 names
were borne on the pension rolls, and during the
year ending that day, the total amount paid

ment, was S25 010, $50 being 81, 291 ,025 great

aged to abandon their nomadc habits and engage
in agricultural and industrial pursuits. This
policy, insugurated many years since, has met
with signal success whenever it has been pursued
in good faith and with becoming liberality by the
United States. The necessity for extending it as
far as practicable in our relations with the abo-
riginal population is greater now than at any
preceding period. Whilst we furnish subsist-
ence and instruction to the Indians and guaran-
tee the undisturbed enjoyment of their treaty
rights, we should habitually insist upon the
faithful observance Of their agreement to remain
within their respective reservations. This is the
only mode by which collisions with other tribes
and with whites can be avoided and the safety of
our frontier settlements secured.
