Wolfr, whose remarks, though somewhat lengthy, were excellent, and lktened to with at tention. A solo by Mr.-AUcrt lfaf fendeu was received wi'.h applause. Next was the reading of An oiigiual poem by Miss druthers, whom we un derstand is a pupil in our public school. It was a production that one much old er would Lave reason to le proud ef. Other exercises followed, consisting of music by Miss Pijer and pjieechea by Rev. M. C. Miller and other. At the business mcetiricr Mr. Juhn Conner called attention to the jietition present- ed by liquor dealers of this city to the City Council asking for a reduction of tho license fv-e. It was thereupon re solved that iu the opinion of this Club the license fee ought to l-e increased in- Stead of diminished, ami President Humphrey was instructed to notify the Mayor and Council of the action of the Club, ard 'to "lave it" publLLed in our city paiers.

Exulting over their recent iotoiies, tho Kepub licans are boasting of their ability to sejnre the next .senate, commencih March 4 th, 1SS1. This they can not do. Giving them a gain in all the doubtful States where Senatorial terms expire this session giving them Con Connecticut, Xew York, New Jersey and Pennsylv:inia,the Democrats would still have two majority. The United States Senate will be Democratic for the next four years, and longer loo ! The Ornjoniaa, after an elaborate editorial on Haves' Message, tiinis it ' np in the following - sarcastic 'para graph: "Altogether there is nothing in the message that will create any particular excitement or arouse any discussion, unles-s it be the position which the President takes on linances, and bin party wiil probably give him only a partial support in this matter. There is not much that is new or entirely original, most of. its matter being a compilation of department reports, or a review of the alTaii-j of the government which have already 1eeit ' given to the public by the enterprising journals of news." : -...

We have not space for tho message full, but give r.uch extracts ns wo think will lie interesting to our read ers : -- t The message starts out willi a refer ence to our NATIONAL F1SANCIS, Fofigrtu1;ttin eoiigrvss on the micivss- ful elocution of tho resumption nets, ui 4t consequent revival of busineaa. At the time lived and in the manner contemplated by law V.

S. notes over the amount of U. S. notes redeemed is about $ l,0t)0,0t)0. With a currency equivalent iu value to the money of the commercial worhl, we are enatiiea to enter upon an cquai competition with other nations in trade ami production, the increasing tor- eijni demand for our manufactures and agricultural products, has causcd'a l:irv' Udaiico of trade in our favor, whii-li 1ms lnvn jaitl in jM from the 1st of July last to .Novciulier loth, to the ainoiint of alsmt .$5.19,000,000. Since the rr sumption of sjHvie payment there has lx-n a marked and gnitifvin improve ment of the public credit. The Uuuls of the government liearing only four Hr cent, interest, have leen sold at or above pur, suthcieiit in amount to pay otl'that amount of the national debt re deemable under present laws. The amount of interest saxiil auuuallv bv the jiriKN-ss of refunding the debt Mint' March 1, 177, U $1 1.297,177- Th. bonds sold were largely in small iuin.s and the nuinU r of our citizens now holding public Mvuritiea is much gmit cr than ever ls-iiire. llio amount of the national debt which matures within the nevt two year is $729, 121, 7tM),f which ..".fHM), UtH) l-ars interest at the rat of live x-r et-nt. It is ln-Iievcfl that thi.s vrt of the public debt can 1 refunded by the issue of four jwr out IhuuIs ; mid bv the reduction of interest which w ill thus lie effected ,$l l.OOO.OtK) tun annu any oesaveii to me treasury, to cure this iniortant reduction of iuU-r-est to ln jiaid by the Unitt-d StaUs, further legislation is required whkli it is liopeu will lie provitleil lv conrejM during its prestnit si-ssuhl. The coinage of gold by the mir.U of the United Stat-s during the List fiscal year was $90,980,9 1 2. The coinage of sliver dollars since the pasKajn.- of the act for that purpose up to Nov. I, PS 9, was 4o,000,tjt, of which $12,900,31 1 have Ih-cii issued from the treasun and are now in circulation, and .'52,300,- 0rC are still m the jioviession of the tyrv eminent. The jieiuh-ncy of the pro osi lion for unity ot action l-tween the l uiUil Stau-s and the principal commercial nations of Rurojie to etfect a jienna-Jit-nt nvstcin tor ihn t-jiualitv of in. Id and silvera-sthe recognized monevof the world, leads me to recommend that con jrress refrain from new legislation on the general subject. The gr-at revival of trade, internal and foreign, will suji- piv during the coming year, its own in htmctions, which may well awaitil U-fore utu-mpting further exjieriiuentul measure's with the coinage. I would, however, strongly urge umh congress the importance of authonz ing the secretary of the treasury to sus- jx'iid the coinage of silver dollars ujkjii the present legal ratio. The market value of the silver dollar being uniform ly and largely less than the market value of the gold dollar, it is ob iotislv iinracticable to maintain them at ar with each other if loth arccmneil with out limit. If the cheajsT coin isforwd into circulation, it will, if coined with out limit, soon become the tuAu stand ard of value, and thus def.-at the d. sired oliject, which is the currency of lotli gold and silver which shall Ik? of equivalent value, dollar for dollar, with the universally recognized money of the world. - The retirement from circula tion of United States notr-s with caac- lty ot legal tender m private contracts, is a step to oe taken nt our progress toward a safe and stable curreiicy,wliich should lie accepted as the policy nnd duty ot the government and the mter- est ami security oi tue p-oiile. Jt is rnv linn conviction that the issue of le gal tender jtftjier money )ased wholly ujsjn the authority and credit of the government, except in extreme urgen cy, is without warranty of the consti tution and a violation of sound iinau- cial . principles, . , The issue of United States notes during the late civil war, with the cajjacity of legal tender 1k tween private individuals, was unau thorized except as a means of rescuing the country from imminent peril, The circulation or these notes tor paper money for any protracted oriod of time after tho accomplishment of -this purpose was not contemplated by the trainers of the law under which they were issued. They anticipated the re demption and withdrawal of these notes at the earliest practicable period con sistent with the attainment of the ol- jeet for which they were provided. TJie policy of the United States, stead ily adhered to from the adoption of the constitution, has been to avoid the cre ation 'of a national debt, and when, from necessity in the time of war, debts have been created, they have been paid oil! on tho return of eace as rapidly as possible. , With this view and tor this purpose it is recommended that the ex. istmg1 laws for accumulation of a sink ing fund ' sufficient to extinguish the public debt" within a limited period be maintained. , If any change of the ob jects or. raen of taxation is deemed ne cessary by congress, it is suggested that experience has shown that a duty can be placed on tea or coffee, which will not enhance the value of these articles to the consumer and will add several million of-dollars annually to tho trea sury.

"lie finds no reason to qualify his former opinion that no temporary interests of government will display the zeal of onr neoiile on the ricrbfa ti r-ifi. i i - A zenship, and the power of public opitff ion will override all sectional and state attachments. , Referring to existing laws on this subject ho Bays! "I re spectfully urge nism Congress to supply any defects in these, laws which exsrt ciieo has shown and which it has with in its power to remedy. I again invoke co-operation of executive and legislative authorities of states in this great pur pose. 1 nut fully convinced that if the public mind can lie set at rest on this paramount question of popular rights, no serious objection will "thwart or de lav the complete pacilication of the country or retard the general diffusion of pros ion ty.

Under this head, after waiting for and gathering the result of investiga tions on this" subject in Croat Britain, which shows that couiKtitive exami nations, H-n to all on unequal footing, is the lost, its rcjiort is submitted to congress. Alter commenting on the evils of our apioiiiting jmwer, and ex patiating nt length on the duties of a-Kunte-s, he says that his predecessor in the annual messugo of Dii'ember, 1 870, declared that there- was no duty which so embarrasses an executive as that of opiioiiitmcnt ; nor is there such an arduous and thankless duty im)Mscd upon senators or representatives usthut ot liudmg places for their constituents.
