Questions continue to arise in relation
with several countries in respect to the rights of
naturalzed citizens Especially is this the
case with France Italy. Russia and Turkey, and
TO a less extent with Switzerland. From time
TO time earnest efforts have been made to regu-
late this subject by conventions An improper
use OF naturalization should not be permitted,
but It is important that those who have been
duly naturazed should everywhere be accord
ed recognition of the rights pertaining to citi
zenship Of the country Of their adopSon.

THE BRAZILIAN REVOLUTION

The recent revolt N Brazil IN favor OF the az.
Establishment of a republican form OF government
is an event of great interest to the United
States. Our Minister at Rio de Janeiro was at
once instructed to maintain friendly diplomatic
relations with the Provisional Government and
the Brazilian representatives, ut this capital
were instructed by the Provisional Government
to continue their functions. Our friendly inter
course with Brazil has therefore suffered no In
terruption. our Minister has been further in
structed to extend on the part OF this Govern
ment a formal and cordial recognition OF the
new republic so soon as the majority Of the peo
pie OF Brazil shall have signihed their assent to
It's establishment and maintenance.

On the part Of the government OF the Domin-
ion Of Canada an effort has been apparent dur
ing the season just ended TO administer the
laws and regulations appHcaDle 10 the fisheries
with az little occasion for friction as was pos
sible, and the temperate representations Of this
Government in respect of cases of undue hard
ship or of harsh interpretations have been in
most cases met with measures of transitory re
lief. II is trusted that the attainment of our
Just rights under existing treaties and in virtue
Of the concurrent Legislation of the two con
tiguous countries will not be long deferred and
that all existing causes OF difference may bo
equitably adjusted.

ExFnADrrIoN.

A Just and acceptable enlargement OF the list
OF offenses for which extradtion may be claimed
and granted is most desirable between this
country and Great Britain. The territory Of
neither should become secure harbor for the
evil-doers Of the other through any avoidable
shortening in this regard.

TI.sLAyERY CONFERENCE.

This Government has accepted, under proper
reserve as to its policy in foreign territories,
the invitation Of the government of Belgium to
take part in an International Congress which
opens at Brussels on the 18th of November for
the purpose Of devisng measures to promote
the abolition Of the slave trade in Africa, and
TO prevent the shipment Of slaves by sea. Our
interest in the extinction OF this crime against
humanity in the regions where it yet survives
has been increased by the result OF emaneipa
tion within our own borders

Referring to the personal attack upon Justice
Field by David s. Terry in August last and the
killing of the latter by Deputy Marshal Maggie,
the President recommends that some definite
provision be made by law, not only for the pro.
lection of Federal officers but for a full trial OF
such cases in the United States courts. The
duty of protecting its officers as such and OF
Furnishing those who assault them on account
Of their official acts should not be deYolved ex'
Drassly or by acquieseence upon the local au.
thorities.
Events which have been brought to my at
tenton. happening in other parts OF the coun-
try have also suggested the propriety Of ex-
tending by legislation fuller protection 20 those
who may be called as witnesses in the courts OF
the United States.

The loaning OF public funds to the banks
without interest upon the security OF Govern.
ment bonds l regard as unauthorized
and dangerous expedient. 1t results In a tenn
porary and unnatural increase OF the banking
capital of favored localities. and compels easl.
tious and gradual recall Of the deposits 10 avois
injury to the commercial interests. IL is not to
be expected that the bsnks ksving these depos-
its will sell their bonds To the Treasury so iOhg
as the present highly beneficial arrangement Is
continued. They now practically gci interest
both upon the bonds and their proceeds. No
further use should be made of this method Of
getting the surplus into circulation, and the de
posits now outstanding should be gradually with
drawn and applied To the purchase o: bonds.
II is fortunate that such a use can be made q
the existing surplus, and for some time To come
OF any casual surplus that may exist after Con
gress has taken the necessary steps for a feduc-
tion Of the revenue Such legislation should be-
promptly but very considerably enacted.
