The Committe ON Commerce Of the

interesting report or the Revenue Ma
.rihe Service This department consists
of SO vessels, 204 officers and ia sail
ors. Ii has done good work in every
war of the United States during tie
present century, and its labors in times
of peace have been continuous aud fruit
full. It's duties include the protection
, of the revenue against Smugglers, the
i. enforcement of maritime laws in rela-
ton TO the inspection and equipment of
vessels and other matters, assistance
for the Life-Saving ard Light House
service and a variety OF ~employments
which the reports set forth in a list of
twenty-three numbers The depart
ment cannot be regarded merely as a
branch Of the civil service, because not
only are its members subject 10 military
duty in time of war, but their labors in
time of peace are arduous, more OIL less
dangerous, and, whether in peace or
war, are those of a military or naval
guard. The revenue vessels are heavily
armed, and the officers, and men are
daily drilled with great guns ard small
arms. The work has steadily Increased
During the last ten years the average
number Of miles sailed is 2l4 ,S57; YES

the last five years the value Of vessels
assisted and their cargoes was S13, 926,-
$40 or g, 1Sj, 305 ayear; while The to-
tai number of lives saved was 531, or
LOG a year. 1t seems clear that this
service deserves as liberal treatment as
the Army and Navy. There is, how
ever, no provision for the treatment of
WORKOUT or disabled officers. OF the
captains OF The register, more than
twenty-five per cent. are Of this class.
i number Of the officers are more than
eighty years cid, and one is ~ninety-two.
T" keep these men on the active list is
unfair to them and unjust to the Rev.
enue Marine, sinceit interferes with its
highest efficiency by preventing younger
and physically, more capable men from
taking the places of those UNITED for
service. 1t is surprising that something
was not done long ago to remedy this
condition of things. Mr.. Crap0's hill
which the Committee has fayorably re-
ported, authorizes the retirement Of OH

authorizes the appointment Of four post
captains from the list of active captains

an additional and reasonable reward for
meritorious service. Vacancies caused

are taken to arrest the wanton and in

trees, the rain VIII soon wash down all

very soon devises effective measures to
prevent the unnecessary slaughter OF
forests in the public lands, and to reg

President ARTHUR yetoes the Chi
nese Immigration bill on the ground
that the suspension of the coming Of
Chinese laborers to this country for
twenty years would be a breach Of
our national faith as pledged to Chi
ma in the treaty of 1880. He reviews
the negotiations at the forming Of
the treaty, to show that neither of
the contracting parties contemplated
the passage of an act containing a
prohibition of immigration for TWEEN
ty years, or thought that such a per-
iod would be a reasonable suspension
or limitation. He adds that he is
deeply convinced of the necessity for
some legislation on this subject, and
points out features of this act which,
he thinks, could be modified to ad-
vantage. He says the system Of. per-
sonal registration and passports is
undemocratic and hostile to the spirit
of our institutions. The Chinese
Minister has reminded him that the
bill makes no provision for the tran
sit across-the United States of Chi
nese subjects now residing in foreign
countries. Good faith, and good pol
icy too, h, thinks, require us tossus-
pend the immigration of Chinese Ia
borers for aless period than twenty
years. No n can say that the cour-
try has not profted by the-work of
the Chinese, and the Pacific States,
he declares, are full of evidences OF
their industry. Now it is supposed
they are not needed there, but there
may be. other sections of. the country,
he suggests, where their labor may
be advantageously employed without
interfering with the laberers of our
own race. Finally, the President
points out that the trade Of China
has been very valuable to us, and es-
pecially to California, and that the
policy of this bill must repel it.. 1t
may be, he says, that the great and
paramount interest of protecting our
labor from Asiatie competition JUST
fies US in a permanent adoption of
this policy; but it is wiser in the first
place to make q shorter experiment,
with q view hereafter of maintaining
permanently only such features as
time and experience may commend.
