The report of the Commissioner of Indian
Affairs, which has been printed, is not so
lengthy as previous reports from that Office,
but gives in Thorough detail interesting
facts concerning the Indian policy of the
government and the administration of the
peace commissioners, which is regarded as
perfectly satisfactory, and as having result
ed beneicially both to the government and
the Indians. The former has received prac-
teal good through the workings OF the
Quaker commissioners, and honest expendi
lures of the appropriations at their COM
mand, as well as in a reduction of the bu-
reau expenses, by careful supervision of the
annuity, goods, ETC., to be disposed OF to the
Indians. The report claims a most ecOnomi-
cal expenditure of the appropriations, and
the adoption of system which will enable
the bureau to transact its business under
much less estimate during the fiscal year
than was called for in the last report. The
decrease in the. present estimate is a little
over a million of dollars. The general tone
Of the report concerning the character and
disposition Of the tribes is satisfactory The
missionary exercises which have been carried
into practical effect by the Quaker agents
are highly eulOgized as having tended to
render the tribes more amenable to the re-
quirements of the government and the die
tates Of civilization than formerly Princi-
pal features in the advancement of the va
ri0us tribes are the consideration paid by
them to the establishment Of mission schools
and to education. The Commissioner has
reason to believe that, with the constant en-
deayors Of Quaker officials, backed by the
support they have from the government.
the system Of Indian affairs is rapidly being
reduced to an excellent standard, and that
the precepts of civilization and christianity
will work wonderful change in their char
acter. The present quiet aspect there is
reason to hope will continue, and that the
raids and ravages which have been SO fire.
quent of late years will have no repetition.
Interesting documents from Indian officers
accompany the report of the commission
ers. The usual statistics of the different
tribes are given, and full information upon
all subjects relating. to the present Indian
policy is submitted by the authors of the
different reports accompanying that of the
commissioners.

Alabama Claims.

This is Washington dispatch to the st.
Louis Republican Z
A semi official statement having been
made that the Alabama claimants were pre-
vented by law that would be enforcedon
them by this government from adjudicating
their claims with Great Britain, a search into
the United States statutes has resulted in
finding an act in full force, dated January
20, 1879, the provisoD of which is as follows:
Nothing in this act shall be construed to
abridge the right Of individual citizens of
the United States to apply by themselves or
their agents to any foreign government, or
the agents thereof, for the redress of any
injuries in relation to person or property
which such individual may have sustained
from such government or any Of it's agents,
citizens or subjects. The private claimants
say that as England stands ready to treat
with some of them, and thereby admit these
claims, the United States government can
not, in the face of this law, step in and pre-
vent slch settlement

This is from the Planters Banner:

Sugar and cotton sell at such low prices
that planters can make nothing in cultivat-
ing their crops, still the cry every where is
for More hands! More hands, If every
planter in the South could get a IL the hands
he wanted, and if the cotton worm could
be exterminated by some of the new inven-
tons for their destruction, it would break
most Of the planters, crowd the richest and
fairest portions of this great country with
negroes and Chinese, and benefit immensely
the sugar and cotton consumers of the North
and Of Europe; but what benefit would the
South derive from it! We desire informa-

The report of the Commissioner OF Educa-
ton is a vOluminOus document, seventy
pages in length, and, with accompanying
Documents will make . volume Of five hun
dred pages. It is more in the shapeof
general essay on the condition OF education
in this country, and the inadequacy OF any
system ut present in existence for develop
ing the facts and statistics necessary, than
q report of the actual work done and results
attained.
The accompanying documents are chiefly
other essays by experts on special topics,
bearing on the general subject. The Com
missioner praises the system OF RUSSIA as
superior to ours.
of American State reports on schools,
that of Illinois is said to be the most com
nlete. The Massachusetts reports, while
fully respecting common schools, say nothing
ahort colleges. Several Western States
complain of diversion and waste of school
funds.
The condition of the educational work in
the South is treated of ut length, and the
Is that many of the States have good sys
TENS, but the apathy or open opposition to
large classes make them inefficient.
The provision by the government OF a
system of free schools in the Territories is
urged, and q scheme of Congressional ac-
ton is submitted.
A large space is given to the considera-
ton Of the education of the Indians. Some
general legislation in aid OF an Indian
school system is asked, which system ought
to be in q great part industrial:
The constant calls for information re-
ceived from abroad are referred to as show
ing the interest of other countries in our
experiment.
Professor Day, of New Haven, furnishes
am interesting paper on the means necessary
for the education and AmericaniAing of
Chinese emigrants. There is much about
the relations of education and labor and
report on technical schools by Robert j. Hen
ton, the statistics of comparative iliteracy
of males and females in the New England
States, which the Commissioner says is APP
palling, and shows the necessity for more
thorough education of women as sure
means Of promoting the general intelligence.
Of the topics treated Of are a proposed
national university at the Capital; teachers
associations; college statistics: agricultural
and scientific schools; refOrmatOry schools;
institutions for the blind, dumb, idiotic and
insane, and prison schools wherever pos
sible.
The statistics here are as complete as
practicable
