Letters havo been written to the Commissioner of Iwlian A flairs by sev eral prominent chiefs, giving assurance of their loyuliy to tho Uuitcd Stales, and ex pressing a wish Tor tho presence of Iho Federal troops to protect them. It is be lieved that on the rc-oeenpulioii of their' country by the Federal forces the Indians will immediately cease all hostile demon slrations and resuinu llieir former relations',' lo the Oovcriimcnt. Agriculture, confessedly tho largo intcr 1. 1 or tho nalion, has not a department or n bureau, but a clerkship only assigned it in the (Joveniiiient. While it is fortunate this gnat Interest is so imh pendent in its nature ns not lo have demanded and extort ed more from the (Jovcrmneiit, I respect fully ask Congress to consider whether somi.lhing more cannot be given voluntari ly with K'l'eral advantage Aiiiiual re ports exhibiting tho condition ol agricul ture, coimneieo nnd mnintfacturcs Would present a bind of information of j.rnctical value to the country. While 1 make no ingestions 03 to details, I venture tho' opinion tl.at an Agricultural nnd Statisti cal llurcau might property be organized. The execution of laws lur the suppress ion of the African slave trade has been coti fid'd to the Departuieut of the Interior, i I is a subject ef congratulation, that tho dTorts which havo been niado for the sup pression of this inhuman trallie have recent ly been attended wilh much success. Ves ftl:; being fitted out for the slave trado have Ir'tii .cc:z'd nnd condemned. Two iiini'li-rs engaged in the Irade, nnd one per son who equipped si vessel ns n f laver, hove been convicted mid rubjected to the penal ties of fine ami imprisonment ; nnd one Cop- lain, taking up a cargo of Africans on his vessel, has been convicted or the highest grade or oll'euees under our laws, the pun ishment or which is death. The Teiritoiies, Colorado, Pacotah, and Nevada, crenUvl by the ln.-.t Congress have been organized, nnd civil administrations lime Ih'cii inaugurated therein, under aus pices cs-peeiallv gratifying when it is con s'iderctl that the leaven of (reason was Inn nl existing in sonic of these new coun tries when tlio Federal ollicci's first arrived there. The nbiiml iut natural resources' of these Territories, wilh the security nnd protection uiTordtd by an organized (iov-ci-iimeiit, will doubtless iuvile to them a large emigration when pence shall restore the bii'!ii.ess of the country to its neenstom c.l channels. I received the resolutions of the Legislature of Colorado, which evinced the mtriot'C spirit of the people of thnt Territory So fur, the piithorily of the I'i, :t'.i States has been upheld in nil the Territories, ns it is IioitiI it will be in tlic fa I ii re. I commend ll.eir interests and de fence to the ci. lightened and generous caro cf Coi grcss. HlStF.I.I.A.VKOCS. I recommend to the favorable consilient tin., of Congress, the ftttcit-sls of tho trict of Columbia. The insurrection lias been ihc c uisij of much suffering nnd sac rifice to the inhabitants, and us they havo mi lit picsciilativc iu Congress, tlml body hoiild imt overlook llieir jiet claims uiioii the I i oi eminent. At jour Kile session, n joint resolution ; adopted nulhori.:ug tlio President to' take mia.sures for frcilitaliii'' a i.roinT rci- .-.sciitatioi. at the Iixhibiliou of Industry of nil Nations, lobe held iu Loudon in lhu car l-iii. 1 re-let to have been iinablo o give peisomd clteiilioii to the subject, o ii.limalily comiecled with the liitilcrial ni. ;n rily of Ihc world. 'J'l.rough lliu Sec Linrv of Slut.', nud of lhu Interior, n plan or system ban been devised and partly uu- ii d, which will lc laid before you. Pv virtue of Ihe Act of Concrcss ei.ti- Hcd "An Act to confiscate proierty used for iiiMirreclionnry jmrHiscs, approved Au gust d, lT.I," the clniun of ccrtiin prrsowr to labor nnd service hare become forfeited, and numbers of the latter thus liberatcdf are already deeiiilciit on the United State nnd must be provided for in sonic war. P'-nlis llm, it is now possiiiie Hint wmo or the Slave Slates will puss similar enact, tnei Is for their own benefit, by tho opera tion of which persons of lhu same class will be thrown upon Ihcm for llieir disjwal. In tnal cae, I recnmmci.n that Congress pro vide fiir accepting Mich persons front such Stale, Hecordiug to ronm mode of valuation, in lieu of pro rata of direct tax- en, or upon some other phut to bo agreed no with such Slates respectively : that stietl m rsoi'S on such acceptance by tho uencrsil liovi rninei.t, be at once deemed free, and, that, In any event, steps bo taken for colo ui.ing both cl.tsscs, or tho ono first men tioned, il tho other should not bo brought into existence, nt somo place or places In a chnialo congenial to them. It might bo well to consider, loo, whether tho free col ored people already lu tho United Slntei could not, so fur as Individuals may desire, bo Included in such colonization . To Cur. rr out the plan of colonization may involvo tiio acipiisiiioii of territory, nud ofso, an. appropriation of money beyond that to be e landed iii Iho territorial ncitiisilion.
