Tho Presidents message has been sent TO
Congress and published In all Of the lead
ing papers. II Ia long and we'll written
document, and deal. with matters Of pub
lie Importance in n very fair aud impartial
manner. The President recommends o re-
duction Of taxation aud argues that both
the Internal Revenue laws and the tariff
laws should be revised and modified. He
thinks that the duty should be taken of on
sugar He expresses himself "a the friend
of the improvement Of the Mississippi
River, explains Why he vetoed the last
River and Harbor blll, and recommends
that appropriations for the Mississippi
should he placed IN IL srpcrate bill and not
tackled on to the general appropriation bill
for rivers and harbors. There il uodoubt
about the corrcctn,.s If the Presidents
position on this question. The improve
ment ofthe Mississippi River is matter
of national importance, and the general
government can afford to make a liberal
appropriation for the purpose, hut it should
be ny n separate bill for the purpose, ana
not tackled on to "a bill which takes in every
litflc sprinG branch and wet weather creek
in the Union. by such a course the inter
est of the people of the valley have been
made to suffer and the Improvement of the
great Ris"r h,s been prejmliced in the
minds Of many honest people. The appro-
priation for the Mississippi should he a
bill. Tho message ofthe Presi-
dent is AZ good a paper of the kind rs
could well be expected from Republican
President. Many of his suggestions should
be adopted by Congress.

The Dignity Of Labor.

Labor plays no unimportant part in our
civilization. 1t is the original source of
all wealth. II ministerers to all the wants
aud necessities Of the human race. Human
beings were Intended TO minister to their
own necessities. II if the first Law of ia.
turc and the command Of the Creator
Food, clothing and habitatious are necessi
ties Of any degree Of civilizations, and these
are all the products Of labor without labor
they can no, he produced. Art, science
and literature are the creations of labori-
ous effort. For those who do not toll aud
spin, others must toll and spin, and il is
certainly more respectable and dignifed
TO minister To ones own wants than 10 re-
Is upon the efforts of others. Dependency
is not 70 be coveted. Independence is far
better. Whatever may be said Of those
yocatiops which involve manual labor they
are certainly the foundation of all other
vocations, and the corner stone of all
wealth aud civilization. Repugnauce to
labor may be called refinement, but it is
really tho essence of narrow mil deduess.
Tho cultured may dislike the exercise of
muscle and assume to call IT dignity, but
il is really tho reverse. There is no digni-
~ 10 dependence. Dignity can only oxist
IN connection with Independence. 1t
is a mistaken idea Of many of the young
men to wish TO get away from the farm
aud the workshops There is more honor,
more enjoyment aud more wealth 10 be-
obtained by sticking to the farms aud
workshops. The Young man that il a,ham-
ed, afraid or above labor liz in a bad way.
He promises Ia he failure. The avoca-
tions IN which he WAS raised are as honora-
bic rs any to bo found in towns or crowd
ed cities and his contempt for the pcrsnits
of his fathers IL only an evidence Of thc !
weakness Of his bead. There may be aud. |
Of course arc, instances where persons have /
brttcrcd their condition by forsaking the |
calllngs of labor. bnt such cases are rare
and the opposite is most frequently the
result. There il no calling more honorable
than tho pcrsult Of labor. The day has
past when labor can he dispised 10y any
lass. Tic laborcr can no longer be- re-
,ardrd as socially inferior to those who
gain their livelihood by other methAd-. II
: a healthy indication for the country uIat
'v,rywhcrc labor has come To BE- regarded
n it's proper light
Don't dlspi-r latpr Young man. Remain
III the farm aud in the woi kshops Those
who nndcrvalnc !nu on that account are
rot worthy of your consideration. All
cnc,hlc. honorable minded people will re-
poet yon a. much with your rough and
oiled hands. rs If clad in kid gloves and
i,iu: in ease and idlcncss Labor is
onaSlSic and nothing that is honorable is
'cucath any true man.

We have carefully and diligently exam

to obtain such evidence as would Justify
us in returning bills.
In regard to the public roads. we report
that We have been unable 20 srcnre infnr-
nation enough to warrant rs in taking nny
decisive action. We think the road law
very defective.
The public buildings, the courthouse

rently secure for the detention of prison.

There is money enough in the treasury to

to cancel every dollar of its indebtedness.
We conclude by returning orr thanks to
