THE MESSAGE.

Our usual variety on this page
gives place, this week, to the mes
sage Of President Grant, read at
the opening .of the current session
ofCongress, ,on Monday. The mes
usage is an admirable document. 1t
partakes of the character of its au-
thor; it is thoroughly earnest and
honest. No candid man will rise
from its perusal with the conviction
that the author is demagogue or a
schemer. 1t opens with brief and
appropriate expression Of thanks to
the Almighty, for a year Of peace
and prosperity; alludes briefly to
the condition of the States lately in
rebellion, and then presents a long
and interesting resume of our rela-
tons with foreign countries. A
prominent feature in this part ofthe
message is the earnest reiteration
of the Presidents recommendations
regarding the ratification of the
treaty for the purchase of San Do
mingo. The arguments advanced
are many and cogent, and would
seem, upon hasty view of the sub
iect, to be conclusive. The Alaba-
ma claims are disposed of in few
words, and the recommendation OF
a commission to collect proofs OF
private claims and arrange for their
settlement by the government, to
the end that all claims may be held
by the latter, is evidence that the
President is not yet prepared to
adopt Buffers hair-trigger treat
ment of the matter.
7s, The message sets forth fully the
attempt ofthe Canadian government
to curtail the rights of our citizens
in regard to the navigation of the
St. Lawrence, and the fisheries up
on our northern coasts, and his rec
concentrations in this regard will,
no doubt, secure the earl y attention
of Congress. The President also
makes an earnest appeal for civil
service reform. His views on this
subject are what every friend of
honest and efficient administration
of affairs will ultimately endorse
and support. The recommends
tions of the message with regard to
the disposition Of the public lands,
subsidies to corporations, the rights
settlers, and kindred subjects, are
eminently in accordance with the
sentiments of the great ma ority of
the people, as are those regarding
the abolition of the franking privil-
eye, and the resuscitation of Ameri-
can commerce. The message ends
with a most admirable exposition
Of the policy of the administration,
a policy simply of honesty, efficien-
CIV and faithfulnpSS.
