The difficulty in New Orleans

congress to make offenses against

cognizable in the federal courts
This however has not been done

Tho reports of the heads of the
several oxecutive departments re
quired by law to be submitted mo
which are herewith submitted and
the reports of the secretary of tho
treasury and the attorney general
made directly to congress furnish
n comprehensive view of tho ad-
ministrative work of tho last fiscal
year relating to internal affairs
It would bo of great advantage if
these reports could havo an attent-
ive perusal by ovory member of
congress and by all who take an
interest in poblio affairs Smh a
peissat could not fall to excite w
higher appreciation of the vast la
bor and conscientious efforts
which are given to the conduct of
our civil administration Tho re-
ports will show that ovory question
has been approached consideied
and decided from tho standpoint of
public duty and upon considera-
tion affecting the public interest
alone
2Iy appeal is and must continue
to be for a constitution that shall
proceed with candor calmness
and patience npon the lines of jus-
tice and humanity not by preju-
dice and cruelty
To tho consideration of these
very grave questions I invite the
attention not only of the gontle
mon of congress but of all patri
otic citizens Wo mnst not enter
tain the delusion that our people
havo ceased to regard a ballot and
equal representation as the price
of their allegiance to laws and ci
vil magistrates
I have been greatly rejoiced to
notice many evidences of the in
creased unification of our people
and of a revived national spirit
The vista that now opons to us
is wider and more glorious than
ever before Gratifications and
amazements struggle for suprema
cy as wo contemplate the popula
tion wealth and mortal strength
of our country A trnst mornon
toub iir rssnunaences upon our peo-
ple upon the world is for a brief
time committed to us and we must
not be faithless to its first condi
tion the defense of tho free and
equal influence of tho people in
tho choice of public officers and in
the control of public offairs

We regret that wo have not
space to publish the entire mes-

that the gubinatorial affairs are

gress
