out the length and breadth of the land.
Where are now all petty and religious
differences? ask you to consider here
what it is that brought forth so much love
for this man. 1t was not any official posi-
| ton he held. Not it. 1t was not even his
unquestionable genius. It was the attrac-
| ton of pure and simple goodness. The
| hundreds of toil-worn men who, yesterday,
waited for hours to look upon the face of
the dead, were not drawn there by any.
mere curiosity; they went to cast look
at the features of one who had been their
consistent and untiring friend. Horace
Greeley stuck to what he believed to be
right until his mind and heart gave way.
Let me remind you that Horace Greeley's
life was remarkably practical, and no man,
itseems to me, was more given to practical
purposes than he. How many lives has
he stimulated to wholesome energy?
How many of great interests of education
and science and progress mourn him now?
All these tributes to-day testify ia the re-
cognition of the virtues of this great and
good man. The President of the nation
joins in the tribute to the patriot and the
man. (Murmurs of applause.) Let me
take occasion to urge Mr.. Greeley's views
of Christianity.
"He lived on the essential truths of
ne OH Ills weary
head and weary heart and died weary with !
turmoil Of life. Does truth come to us? i
know that my Redeemer liveth.' In
Horace Greeley, l recognize proof of i'm
mortality He looked from the troubles
of the surging world to the peace of the
grave, where the wicked cease from troub-
cling and the weary are at rest [ thank |
God from my heart and soul that when all |
this world was fading from his eyes he re-
marked, Il know that my Redeemer liv- |
eth 1t was the triumph of his life and of
his death, and now as we take our brother |
from this church which has known him
so often, but will know him no more, let |
this be our lesson-we know that our Re-
deemer liveth. Farewell, dear friend, fare
well noble associate, farewell great cham
pion. We know that our Redeemer liveth,
and God grant that like thee, we may
know it when the light of this world is
fading from our eyes"

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.

An earnest desire has been felt to correct
abuses which have grown up in the civil
service of the country through the defec-
tive method of making appointments to
office. The offices have been regarded too
much as the reward of political services.
Under the authority of Congress rules have
been established to regulate the terms of
office and the mode of appointments. 1t
can't be expected that any system of rules
can be entirely effective, and prove per-
feet remedy for the existing evils until
they have been thoroughly tested by actual
practice, and amended according to the re-
quirements of the service. During my
term of office it shall be my best endeavor
to so apply the rules as to secure the great
est possible reform in the civil service of
the Government, but it will require the di-
rect action of Congress to render the en-
forcement of the system binding upen my
successors, and hope that the experience
of the past year, together with the appro-
pirate legislation by Congress may reach
satisfactory solution of this question, and
secure to the public service for all time
practical method of obtaining faithful and
efficient officers and employees.

Referring to the Secretary of the Interi-
| ors suggestion for q national census in
1870. He says:
1t would probably Obviate the con-
stitutional provision regarding the decen-
nial census, if a census taken in 1875
should be divested of all political character
and no re-appOintment of Congressional
representation be made under it. Such a
census, coming as it would in the last year
of the first century of our national eXiS-
tence, would furnish a noble monument of
the progress of the United States during
that century.
EDUCATION. ---
The rapidly increasing interest in educa-
ton is most encouraging feature i'll the
current history of the country, and it is no
doubt true that this is due in great meas
ure to the efforts of the Bureau of Educa-
ton, That office is continually receiving
evidences which abundantly prove its eff
fciency from the various Institutions of
learning, and educators of all kinds
throughout the country.
The report of the Commissioner contains
vast amount of educational details of
great interest. The bill now pending be-
fore Congress, providing for the appropria-
ton of the nett proceeds of the sales Of pub
lie lands for educational purposes, to aid
the States in the general education of their
rising generation, is measure of such
great importance to our real progress, and !
ing friends of education, that recommend |
it to the favorable attention of Congress.
TERRITORIES.
Affairs in the Territories are generally |
satisfactory. The energy and business ca |
pacity of the pioneers who are settling up |
the vast domains not yet Incorporated into |
States are keeping pace in internal i'm |
provements and civil government with the |
older communities.
THE INDIANS.
The policy which was adopted at the be-
ginning of the administration with regard |
to the management of Indians has been as
successful as its most ardent friends antic.
ipated within so short time. 1t has re-
duced the expense of their management, |

INTERNAL IMPROVEMENTS.

The attention of Congress will be called

prises for the more certain and cheaper
transportation of the constantly increasing
surplus of Western and Southern products

one that will force itself upon the legisla-
