protect citizens from the law1ess doings
of such combination. He makes sug-
gestions in regard to the Indians that
they should all be confined to the ter
ritory south of Kansas, and that farms
De secured to them in fee and severally.
He recommends further census be
taken in 1875, but that no reappoint-
ment Of members Of Congress be made
under it in only one of the territories.
Utah is in the scondition Of affairs
regarded by the President as unsatisfac'
tory. It had seemed to be the policy
of the Utah Legislature to evade all
responsibility to the United States
Government, and even to hold posi-
ton hostile to it. Fie recommends a
careful revision of the present laws,
and the enactment Of laws that viii
secure peace and the equality ofcitizens
there before the law, and the ultimate
extinguishmcnt Of polygamy.
lie recommends an appropriation to
reimburse the city OF Washington for
work done in front of the public reser-
vations, and for tho establishment of
the public buildings and grounds. He
fayors the action to give greater eclat
and success to the observance OF the
contcnnial anniversary of American
independence.
Ia regard to OWL Service he says he
will carry out the rules during his
term Of Office, but suggests that there
be direct action Of Congress to make
the system binding on his SUCCESSORS,
so rs to require for the public service
Il practical method OF obtaining faith

speedy road out of the difficulty. They
will not long suffer contending factions
and ambitious politicians to plunge
them into anarchy and to destroy their
business and property. When Presi-
dent Grant makes it evident that lie is
resolved to trust the Southern States as
they have trusted him, and to leave
them as free from Federal interference
and special laws as are the other States
OF the Union, we shall soon have an
end of the present disgraceful scenes,
and the verdict Of the people at the
polls will be accepted at the South as
peacefully as at the North. 1t is only
to be hoped that the President will be
backed up by Congress in his new
Southern policy. Nothing is more
certain than that the past efforts at re-
construction have been a failure. For
this Republicans and Liberals,w who are
now in the opposition, arc equally re-
sponsible, and hence they should unite
in repairing the mischio! they have
Jointly done.
