The Presidents Message.

The first message of President Hayes to
Congress is short and TO the point. II com.
priscs only about sixteen hundred words, and
deals simply with the matters in hand which
demanded an extra session.
1t reminds Congress Of the failure at the
last session to pass the appropriation bill for
the support of the army, which the President
regards as branch of the Government aus
thorIsd by existing statute and which il is
the duty OF the Government to maintain in its
full force. This cannot be done without an.
preparations by Congress.
The basis Of the appropriation asked is for
force of $4,000 men, as previously authori.
zed, and the amount estimated to be required
is So, 1866 The President suggests that
consideration of the increase or decrease of
the army be deferred until the regular session
Of Congress.
Other appropriations are asked, with ex.

and recommends plan similar to that adopt.

in 1873. He think this representation can be
secured by an appropriation of 100000.
