With the great reduction Of taxation by
the acts OF Congress at its last session,
the expendituF Of the Government In
collecting the revenue will be much re-
duced for the next fiscal year. It Il very

mend that NO more legislation be had on
the subject, unless il be to correct errors
Of omission or commission in the present
laws, until sufficient time has elapsed to
prove that it can be done and still leave
sufficient revenue to meet the current ex-
penses of the Government, pay interest
on the public debt, and provide for the
sinking fund established by law. The
preservation Of our naticnal credit Is Of
the highest importance. Next in impor-

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.
Detailed statements of the disbursements
through the department Of justice will be
furnished by the report of the Attorney Gen.
cral, and though these have been somewhat
increased by the recent acts Of Congress to
States to vote In the several States Of the
Union, and to enforce the provisions OF the
fourteenth amendment to the Constitution
of the United States, and the amendments
thereto, cannot question the necessity and
salutary effect OF these enactments. Reck-
less and lawless men, regret to say, have
associated themselves together in some To-
calities to deprive other citizens Of the rights
guaranteed them by the Constitution of the
United States, and to that end have commit.
ted deeos of violence, but the conviction
and punishment Of many Of these per.
sons have tended greatly. to the re-
preston Of such disorders. l do not doubt
parts Of the country favoloa full endowment
by all classes Of persons Of these rights to
which they are entitled under the constitu-
ton and the laws, and to invoke the aid of
all good citizens to prevent organizations
whose objects are by unlawful means to in.
terfere with those rights. look with con-
fdence to the time not far distant when the
will induce an abandonment Of ell combina.
tions prohibited BY tho acts referred to, and
when Il will be unnecessary to carry ON
prosecutions or innict punishments to pro.
tect citizens for the lawless doings Of such
combinations. Applications have been
made to me to pardon persons convicted OF
. violation OF said acts, upon the ground
that clemency In such cases NO uld tend to
tranquilixe tho public mind, and to test the
virtue Of that policy am disposed, ~ far
IS my sense Of juetice will permit. to
give to these applications favorable
consideration, but any action thereon Is not
to be construed ~ Indicating any change In
my determination to enforce with vigor such
act so long - the consriracies and comb
nations therein named disturb the peace OF
the country. 1t Is much to be regretted.

AWARDS unQeF the convention OF the goth
of April, 1856. That Republic is under
stood to be now almost, II not quite, tran
quilted. 1t Is hoped, therefore, that it
will lose no time in providing for the un-
paid balance Of its debt to the United
States, which, having originated in inju-
ries to its citizens BY Venezuelan suthori-
suant to treaty In the most solemn form
known among nations, would seem to
deserve preference over debts of diff
ferent origin and contracted in different
manner. This subject is again recon-
mended to the attention of Congress for
such action 20 may be deemed proper.
CHINA AND JAPAN.
Our treaty relations with Japan remain
unchanged. An imposing embassy from
that interesting and progressive nation
has visited this country during the
year that Is passing, but being I'M.
provided with powers for the sign
ing of Q convention in this country, no
conclusion in that direction was reached.
It is hoped, however, that the interchange
of opinion which tool. place during their
stay in this country has led to mutual
appreciation Of the interests there which
may be promoted when the revision OF
the existing treaty shall be undertaken.
In this connection I renew my recon-.
mendation of one year ago that to give
importance and to add the efficiency of
our diplomatic relations with Japan and
China, and to further aid in maintaining
the good opinion Of these people, and
secure to the United States it, share Of

~ on the promptitude Of publication. The
Secretary Of the Interior recommends that

Congress. The interval at present estab-
lished between the Federal census 10 30 long

while it possesses the great negative recon-

reason to know; and We are assured on
good authority that as general invigorant
