tha at, with this substantial improvement of it's
 river front the capital would be- in all re-
 spects, one of the most attractive cities in
 the world Aside from its permanent popu-
 lation, this city is necessarily the place of
 residence of persons from every section of
 the country, engaged in the public service.
 Many others reside here temporarily, for the
 transaction of business with the govern ment
 It should not be forgotten that the land acquired will probably be worth the cost of
 retaining it, and that the navigation of the
 river will be greatly improved. I therefore again invite the attention of Congress to the importance of prompt provision for this much needed and too long delayed improvement. The water supply of the city is inadequate In addition to the ordinary use throughout the city, the consumption by government is necessarily very great in the navy yard ar senal and the various departments and 6 large quantity is required for the proper preservation of the numerous parks and the cleansing of sewers. I recommend that this
 subject receive the early attention of Con-
 gress, and that, in making provision for an increased supply, such means be adopted as will have in view the future growth of the city. Temporary expedients for such pur- pose cannot but be wasteful of money, and I therefore unwise. A more ample reservoir, with corresponding facilities for keeping it filled, should. in my judgment, be constructed. commend again to the attention of Congress 1 the subject of the removal, from their pres- ent location, of the depots of the several rail roads entering the city; and renew the recommendations of my former messages in
 behalf of the erection of building for the | Congressional Library the completion of the | Washington Monument, and of liberal ap- propriations in support of the benevolent, re- 1 formatory and penal institutions of the Dis 1 trict. RUTHERFORD B. HAYES. l EXECUTIVE MANSION, December 6, 1880.

 THE FINANo1AL AFFAIRS OF THE GOVERNMENT,
 The condition of the financial affairs of the government, as shown by the report of the Secretary of the Treasury, is very satis- factory It is believed that the present financial situation of the United States, whether considered with respect to trade, currency. credit, growing wealth, or the ex- tent and variety of our resources, is more favorable than that of any other country of our time and has never been surpassed by that of any country at any period of it's his tory. All our industries are thriving; the rate of interest is low new railroads are be- ing constructed; vast immigration IS in- creasing our population, capital and labor {; new enterprises in great number are in pro-
 gress and our commercial relations with other countries are improving.

EDUCATION.

The Commissioner of Education reports a continued increase of public interest in edu- cational affairs, and that the public schools generally throughout the country are well sustained. Industrial training is attracting deserved attention, and colleges for instruc- tion, theoretical and practical, in agriculture and the mechanic arts, including the govern ment schools recently established for the in- struction of Indian youth, are gaining steadi- ly in public estimation. The commissioner asks special attention to the depredations committed on the lands reserved for the fu- ture support of public instruction, and to the very great need of help from the nation for schools in the Territories and in the southern States The recommendation heretofore made is repeated and urged, that an educa- tional fund be set apart from the net pro- ceeds of the sales of the public lands annual ly, the income of which, and the remainder of the net annual proceeds, to be distributed on some satisfactory plan to the States and Territories and the District of Columbia.

THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.

The success of the public schools of the District of Columbia, and the progress made, under the intelligent direction of the Board of Education and the superintendent, in sup plying the educational requirements of the District with thoroughly trained and efficient teachers, is very gratifying The acts of Congress, from time to time, donating public lands to the several States and Territories in aid of educational interests, have proved to be wise measures of public policy, resulting in great and lasting benefit. It would seem to be matter of simple justice to extend the benefits of this legislation, the wisdom of which has been so fully vindicated by expe- rience, to the District of Columbia.
 I again commend the general interests of the District of Columbia to the favorable consideration of Congress. The affairs of the District, as shown by the report of the Com missioners, are in very satisfactory condi- tion.
 In my annual messages heretofore, and in my special message of December 19, 1879, I have urged upon the attention of Congress the necessity of retaining the marshes of the Potomac adjacent to the capital and I am constrai ned by its importance to advert again to the subject. These flats embrace an area of several hundred acres They are an impediment to the drainage of the city, and seriously impair it's health. It is believed

 tions of that department during the past year It gives me great pleasure to say that our In dian affairs appear to be in more hopeful condition now than ever before. The Indians have made gratifying progress in agriculture herding and mechanical pursuits. Many who were few years ago in hostile conflict with the government are quietly settling down on farms where they hope to make their perma nent homes, building houses and engaging in the occupations of civilized life. The intro duction of the freighting business among them has been remarkably fruitful of good results, in giving many of them congenial and remunerative employment, and in stimu- lating their ambition to earn their own SUD- port. Their honesty, fidelity and efficiency as carriers are highly praised. The organiza- tion of a police force of Indians has been equally successful in maintaining law and order upon the reservations, and in exercis- ing wholesome moral influence among the Indians themselves. I concur with the Sec retary of the Interior in the recommendation that the pay of this force be increased, as an inducement to the best class of young men to enter it.
 Much care and attention has been devoted to the enlargement of educational facilities for the Indians. The means available for this important object have been very made quate. few additional boarding schools at Indian agencies have been established, and S1AS NAONeAoAA several more, but an increase of the appro- priations for this interesting undertaking is greatly needed to accommodate the large number of Indian children of school age The number offered by their parents from all parts of the country for education in the gov ernment schools is much larger than can be accommodated with the means at present available for that purpose. The number of Indian pupils at the Normal school at Hamp- ton, Va, under the direction of General Armstrong, has been considerably increased, and their progress is highly encouraging. The Indian school established by the Interior Department in 1879, at Carlisle, Pa, under the direction of Captain Pratt, has been equally successful. It has now nearly two hundred pupils of both sexes, representing 9 great variety of the tribes east Of the Rocky Mountains The pupils in both these insti. tutions receive not only an elementary Eng ish education, but are also instructed in housework, agriculture and useful mechani- gal pursuits. A similar school was estab- ished this year at Forest Grove, Oregon, for he education of Indian youth on the Pacific coast. In addition to this, thirty-six Indian
