From The National IateHtgencer.

The main exception. and almost the only one,
that has been taken by the Opposition presse, to the
Presidents Message, is the omission to press upon
Congress revision Of The tariff Of duties upon i'm
ports. The Report Of the Secretary OF the rreasu-
ry shews that according to the usage in the earliest
days of the Government that subject has been left
to the Secretary Of the Treasury. the only Head Of
a Department who is by law required to make to
Congress an annual exposition Of the concerns pa-
yed under his charge Of hat report it is not our
purpose now to speak we sinai do 50 at greater lei
sure. We only refer to it proof that there has
been no intentions on the part Of the Executive, To
avoid the question.
In regard to the general exception taken to the Mes,
sage, by those who find no other fault in it. than
that the President has not reiterated his former
commendaons Of several objects of the first impur
tance TO national interests, and to true national olo
ry. may be remarked, the Message itself refers gen
erav to the Presidents former recolnmendationsa a
Of which upon record ;and that the omission to
repeat those recommendations seems properly attib
'ltable to respect for the discretion with which
Congress is invested and certainly not either to any
change ofopnon in relation these objects on the
part Of the President to any indifference TO the
subjects which he has heretofore pressed upon their

lamentable instance Of the deplorable effects
(which result from excessive tondness Tor ardent
spirits, occurred on Thursday afternoon, within a
few Yards of our office. An Individual named WM.
ARMsrRoNu, just arrived from West Union, either
from the love OF the liquor or from previous lntoxl-
cation, undertook to drink quart of hskey, which
some unthnking persons had agreed to besow on
.hlm for the purpose and, alter huzzang for JACK

pints in the course of few minutes As might nat
urally be expected; the wretched man, who
had come to this place for the purpose, as we un-

+ We are pleased 10 learn, from several Of our
members OF the General Assembly, that plans are
forming, in different sections of the State, by our
intelligent farmers for considerably increasing their
ilocks o Sheep and also TOR establishing cotton aud
woollcn manufactures, as the most likely means OF
relieving themselves from the pressure which they
have for some time experienced from the depressed
prices Of every agricultural product. They are
now convinced that those Of sister States whose
citizens are partly engaged in manufacture and COM
nerce, succeed much better in providing the neces-
sares and comforts of life for themselves and fam-
lies, than they able to do from agriculture alone,
and have therefore, wisely come to the dcteimlna-
ton of following their example, possessing, as they
do, equal II not superior. advantages, both Tor ras-
ing sheep and carrying on manufactures. The ad-
viAages which they have for raising sheep arc, the
