bonds, commonly known as 5-2O's, to an equal
amount, have been, or will be, redeemed as
calls mature. 1t has been the policy of the de-
partment to place the per cent. bonds within
easy reaah of every citizen who desires to in
vest his savings, whether small or great, in
these securities. The secretary of the treasury
recommends that the law be SO modified that
small sums may be invested, and that through
the post offices or other agents of
the government, the freest opportunity may be
given in all parts of the country for such in
vestments. The best mode suggested il that
the department be authorized to issue GER
tihcates of deposit of the denomination OF
ten dollars, bearing interest at the rate of
$3.50 per cent. per annum, convertible at any
time within one year after their issue into
per cent. bonds, authorized by the refunding
acJ and to be issued only in exchange for
United States notes sent to the treasury by
mail, or otherwise. Such a provision of law,
supported by suitable regulation, would enable
any person readily, without cost or RICK, to
convert his money into Understanding
security of the United States, and the money
SO received could be applied to the redemption
of 6per cent. bonds.
The coinage of gold during the last fiscal
year was 1858, $50; the coinage Of silver dol
lars, under the act passed July IS. 1873,
amounted on the 22d of November, 1878, to
$l9,Sl4,55O, of which amount 81 .984, 947 are in
circulation, and the balance, $14, 1929, COB, is
still in the possession of the government.
SPECIE RESUMPTION.
With views unchanged with regard to the act
under which the coinage of silver proceeds, it
has been the purpose of the secretary faithfully
to execute the law. and to afford a fair trial to
the measure. In the present financial condi-
ton of the country am persuaded that the
welfare of legitimate business and industry Of
every description will be best promoted
by abstaining from all attempts to
make radical changes in the existing
financial legislation. Let it be under
stood, that, during the coming year, the
business of the country will be undistnrbed by
interference with the laws affecting it, and we
may confidently expect that the resumption of
specie payments which will take place at the
appointed time. will be successfully and easily
maintained, and that will be followed by q
healthful and enduring business prosperity.
Let the healing influence of time, the inherent
energies of our people, and the boundless re-

a.- CUBAN 1NSURRECTION.
The Spanish government has officially an
nounced the termination of the instruction in
Cuba and the restoration of peace throughout
the island. Confident, expectations are ex-
pressed of d revival of trade and prosperity,
| which it is earnestly hoped may prove well
founded. Numerous claims Of American citi-
zens for relief for inj uries or restoration of
property have been among the incidents of the
long-continued hostilities. Some of these
claims are in process Of adjustment by Spain,
and the others are promised early and careful
consideration.
FOREIGN RELATIONS.
The treaty made with Italy in regard to re-
ciprocal consular privileges has been Only rati-
fed and proclaimed No, questions of grave
Importance have arisen with any other Of the
European powers.
sf JAPAN AND CHINA.
The Japanese government has been DESTROYS
of a revision of such parts of its treaties with
foreign powers as relate to commerce. and it is
understood has addressed toeach of the treaty
powers request to open negotiations with that
view. The United States government has been
inclined to regard the matter favorably. What
ever restrictions upon trade with Japan are
found I'M urious to that people cannot but affect
injuriously nations holding commercial inter-
course with them. Japan, after a long period
OF secl:slon, has within the last few years made
rapid strides in the path of enlightenment and
progress, and not unreasonably is looking for
ward to the time when her relations with the
nations of Europe and America shall be assimi-
lated to those which we hold with each other.
treaty looking to this end has been made
which will be submitted for consideration Of
the Senate. 5Sss
| After an interval of several years the Chinese
government has again sent ENJOYS to the United
States. They have been received, and per-
manent legation is now established here by that
government. 1t is not doubted that this step
will be of advantage to both nations in pro-
noting friendly relations and removing causes
of difference.

tween all civilized nations.
Some embarrassment has arisen out of the
conflict between the customs laws of this coun-
try and the provision of the postal convention
in regard to the transmission of foreign books
and newspapers to this country by mail. 1t is
hoped that Congress will be able to devise
some means of reconciling the difficulties which
have thus been created, SO as to do justice to
all parties involved.
COURT BUSINESS.
|. The business of the supreme court and of
courts in many OF the circuits was increased to
such an extent during past years, that adai-
tional legislation is imperative to relieve and
prevent the delay of justice, and possible OPP
preston to suitors, which is thus occasioned.
presented anew in the report of the attorney
general, and the remedy suggested is earnestly
urged for Congressional action. The creation
of additional circuit judges, as proposed, would
afford a complete remedy, and would involve
an expense, at the present rate of salaries of
not more than $780, 900 a year.
INDIAN AFFAIRS.
The annual report of the secretary of the
interior, and Of the commissioner Of Indian
affairs, present an elaborate account of the
present condition of the Indian tribes and Of
that branch of the public service which minis
the Indians generally has been orderly, and
their relations with their neighbors friendly

produce disturbing eject upon the service as
well as on the Indians themselves.
HOT SPRINGS COMMISSION.
In the enrolment of the bill making appro-
priations for sundry civil expenses at the last
session of Congress thai portion which provided
for the continuation of the Hot Springs com
mission was omitted. As the commission had
completed the work of taking testimony on the
many conflicting claims the suspension Of their
labors before determining the rights of claim
ants threatened for a time to embarrass the
interests, not only of the government, but also
of large number Of the citizens of Hot
Springs, who We're waiting for final action on
their claims before making contemplated inn
provements. In order to prevent serious diff
cultles, which were apprehended, and at the
Springs, and others interested in the welfare of
the town, the secretary of the interior was
authorized to request the late commissioners to
takecharge of the records of their proceedings,
and to perform such work as could properly
be done by them under such circumstances to
facilitate the further adjudication of the claims
at an early day, and to procure the status of
the claimants until their right should be final
" determined. The late commissioners COM
piled with that request and report that the
testimony in all the cases has been written out.
examined. briefed and SO arranged as to facili-.
tate an early settlement as authorized by law.
1t is recommended that the requisite authority
be given at as early date in the session as
n0ssiblc. and that fair compensation be
allowed the late commissioners the expense
incurred and labor performed by them since
the 25th Of June last.
