Congress is a very elaborate performance. It is said to have the distinction of being the longest document of the kind since the formation of the Government; with the exception - of Lincoln's war mesaage. Judging the whole by the text of the first part, and by the quo tations of! language- used by the President as given ' in 4 the synopsis ; i published in the Stab of yesterday, it is Written with skill and is a very comprehensive, forceful and lucid ; production. He makes a wide sweep of his telescope and takes in many - ' countries and interests inJiis survey.lt " "is not necessary for us to attempt to ' give an outline, as that is done so "well in the synopsis published al J ready, whilst the manner of dividing the message by small caps has served to bring the various topics the more '"clearly before the reader. . Nor is it i necessary to take up the very nu yA merpus topics treated by the PresuN . dent and comment thereon in order. - . . The tribute paid to that excellent, '--unwavering ; Democrat, admirable - citizen and clear-headed statesman, the late Vice President Hendricks, : : ',was in good taste -and well worded. f We are glad to . note that almost , '' at the :. beginning the "President re- cognizes the binding power of the Constitution,an instrument that Prea- idents and Congressmen have been too' prone to ignore altogether or to " stretch it out - of all nroDor - tions by elossinss and false 6.v.-6a sc interpretations "during the twenty- five years of Republican administra- tion of the Government. We are' also pleased to see that the President. ' T good old Democratic style it, ;speaks of "the 5 Unioit," after the in the past v.- instead of using the - language of "C ... - .... - xi.epuuiiuaa consoiiaation, and re ferring to' the "Nation,", always to :be spelled with a big N; Mr. Cleve l land is also careful to follow the 1 an- .I gnage of the Constitution; ! which is in harmony with, the true character - of; our Government as "established, ::- and speaks of the United -States as a Confederation of States' fand, there fore, refers to them :as such. His language is "the United States, ' are concered." This is a hopeful . sign, and we trust that Northern writers and politicians will take a lesson therefrom. These things are .! important because they embody a .-prineinle. Z. . . . .. " .The Presid.nrtaidaVare.y by . . - Mr. Keiley, who was appointed Mm ister to Austria and rejected. He is explicit, and has - nothing r to take .back.- The demands of Anatina vara euch as could.not be. allowed because they.necessarily, involved a. limita tion in faVOr of A fnTAKTn rnv.rnm.nf ., . . - lvu ""."S"" or - aeiecuon oy, tne Executive; and required such an ap v -. . - plication of a religious test as a qual- I ification ' for the , office under the United States, as would have result- 6d4n the practical disfranchisement of a large class or our citizens, uu the abandonment of a vital principle in our government." .The people will indorse this firm and dignmed position. The President, in discuss ing the Central American affairs, the Isthmus-transit and the Congo mat- ters, presents the facts in such clear outline as .there can be no mistak ing their meaning." He is careful in - all . he . says to follow the caution of the first and most illustrious of Presidents, Washing ton, by avoiding all "entangling al liances." He favors a route connect ing the two great oceans that shall be forever neutral and secure. ; He deals plainly and openly with the Chinese Question, and we- doubt not all fair minded men will agree with . . .: t . - . .. . t- I .4, . him. It is clear that such -outrages as those that occurred in Wyoming Territory need to . be dealt with promptly and sternly. -The President is so satisfied of the :rti;.t1!..fihUw 1uuB4uUJ v4 UDU..u--.- that he recommends that a central bureau of record be established. The President favors a reduction of the Tariff, and, with true wisdom, proposes to make it on the common necessaries of life. He says the sur plus in the Treasury for the fiscal year ending 30th June, 1885, was $63,463,771.27, which is $40,929, 854.32 less than the year preceding. The Democrats, it seems, saved that much accumulation of surplus by th eir legislation. The ordinary ex penditures were $260,226,935.50. Du ring Republican control these expen ditures at one time went up to some $400,000,000jif we remember correct ly. Whilst the President sees the necessity of cutting down the op pressive taxes that the unnecessary and dangerous surplus jnay be re duced, -it is not difficult, we think, for one who can read between the lines to see his leanings. He is more of a Protectionist than a Free Trader. In that particular he is more of a Re- publican than a Democrat. He makes an argument to show why he favors a suspension, not re I peal; of the compulsory coinage law. The sense of the country no doubt favors this suspension. He is not opposed to silver. He says: "There is certainly not enough silver now in circulation u cause uneasiness, and the whole amount coined and now in -hand might after : a time be absorbed by the people without apprenension, due n is toe ceaseless stream that : threatens to over flow the land which causes fear and uncer tainty." He is in favor of executing the law tigidly that concerns the Mor mons, and recommends the passage of a law to. prevent the importation of victims of this curse into our country. This is an excellent sug gestion and should be acted upon by the Congress promptly. The President discusses the Civil Service Commission at length. He is in favor of continuing and amend ing the system. His arguments are those current in Republican ciroles, and are not in accord with the tra- ditions, practices and opinions of the Democratic party in the -past. We have within two days pre sented what we considered to be the true view of the Democratic I party and shalr not enforce bur views I at this time. As we said, the under- j lings of office are the only ones af- I fected by this law, whilst the great 1 and important offioes like those of I foreign diplomatists, whose training &" is really necessary, are not covered. by it in the least. It is an attempt I to engraft upon a Republic the life I tenure system 6f an Aristocraoy. S It 'j. ' Z T a a is a Republican measure -a dodge resorted to by them in the last ex- tremity to retain their hold upon the offices. Of course the law will be re tained. The fiat has gone forth. The Republican party, fortified and strengthened by the President and his advisers, will favor and foster the law because it is to their advan tage whiles out . of office. Let that party xeturn to power in 1889, and you will see how quiokly they will relieve r themselves of all restraints imposed upon them by this law flavored - throughout with British ideas, traditions and practices, ' The message is an able, luminous, and patriotic document and will in- crease the popularity of the Presi-1 I ji t.: t. a : , , , i ucuii iu ' mo - iiuriu. anUi nrnnin v thioaghont th. entire country.

Mr. Morrison is a good representa tive of this faction, and in an inter view denounces the letter m his usual strong terms. ie declares that this nation needs no defenses and wonders if Randall inspired the Tilden letter. Springer, who is from ti o M...0MU-UBMJ tWk lower of Morrison, said ,to-dav that he believed in properly providing for. our coast defenses and added tnat the letter was in the line of his pro posed . revision of the 'rules. He thought the subject was important enough to reauire the attention ox a special committee, and that was to 1 .il "ll-L A A. eive tms ana otner eauaiiy important - - - - subjects more prominence. N. T. Times, Rep. We are sorry to see: that Mr. Til- den's eloquent appeal for the old flag and an appropriation : has " been misinterpreted by an irreverent Washington editor in a way to do grievous injustice to its wise and venerable author. This scoffer thus gives vent to his unworthy suspi cions: "Mr. Barnum, of Connecticut, and some of the Democratic states men of the thrifty sort who have Mr. Tilden's ear have got an idea that lots of money is to be made out of the construction of heavy guns and the steel for fortifications 1 hey are said to have carefully laid their plans to rake m the millions that are to be got out of this business. Mr. Randall, finding out what was going on, has begun to bestir himself to see that Pennsylvania does not get left in the grand distribution ot con tracts." This impertinent scrutiny of Mr. Tilden's motives indicates sour distrust of human nature, which is painful, and a willingness to im plicate the Sage of Greystone in a job, which is shockiag. Mr. Tilden's letter does not read as if he were .thinking, when he wrote it, of iron Mf 8teel or b'S guns 8ave in a Purely I aDStract way. THE PRESIDENT IN FAVOR OFJPRQt&CTION. Washington Special to Boston Journal. 1 wo different tariff propositions are to be submitted to Congress from .Democratic sources. Morrison is pre paring a bill and Randall says that he has been engaged for some months in draftiag one. The Morrison bill will provide for an enlargement of the free list. Morrison, however, says that he is not ready to take the pub lic into his confidence as to his mea sure, lhere will be a strong party also in favor of the adoption of spe cific for ad valorem duties. Manning and Bayard are not agreed on the tariff. Manning is inclined toward moderate protection. He is supposed to nave more the ear of the irresi dent on that subject, which comes immediately under his department, than Bayard has. - Some representa tive free traders, who have been here for the purpose of endeavoring to in duce the Administration to adopt their tariff views, are apprehensive.
