DEBATE ON THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

We were glad TO see yesterday in the Senate
something like return TO the good old Parlia-
mentary practice of discussing the Royal
Speech" at the very opening of the session. In
England, the speech from the Throne is never
allowed TO pass off without thorough review of
It's recommendations, and of the general policy
of the Cabinet. We think that in like manner the
Presidents Message should always be noticed
at the outset; so that, il mischevous in its ten
dency, or calculated 10 produce erroneous inn
pressions respecting the conduct Of the Admin
istration or the condition ofthe country, its cha
racter may be exposed forthwith-and the anti
dote sent abroad as early as possible.
Yesterday, the motion for referring the fnan-
cial part Of the Message 10 the appropriate
sTER addressed the Senate at considerable length,
on several points in regard to which, i: appears
to us, both the President and Secretary of the
Treasury have labored seduiously to mislead the
public
We refer particularly to their account of the
public expenditures-the actual amount of the
yearly outlay by this Administration over and
opofc NS DftOUtc-tnc tfcuttHS uSSil
with trustj funds, as if they belonged to the
Treasury-the whole of the remarks of the Pre-
sident on the subject of public debt-the pre-
tence that the money deposited with the States,
under the Opposite Act, is money IN the Irea-
sury--and the entire absence of any recommen-
dation to Congress to obtain a revenue for the
purpose of satisfying the claims Of the public
creditors-paying off existing debts-and dis
charging the obligations imposed by the Consti-
tuition upon those who have the administration
Of the general government.
On all these points, Mr. WEBSTER spoke with
his characteristic force and clearness and
brought to the consideration of every topic a
fund of interesting and valuable information
In conclusion, he remarked that by the failure
Of the Administration TO provide for the exigen-
cies Of the Government, an extra session OF
Congress might be rendered Indispensable He
hoped that such would not be the case and he
earnestly appealed to the majority TO adopt such
measures as would relieve the coming Admins
tration from the necessity Of calling an extra
session.

MR.. wooDBURY,s REPORT.

One of the most extraordinary features of Mr..
Wood5ury's annual report on the finances is his
estimates of what should be the economy of the
next administration as compared with his own.
This is piece of modesty rarely equalled And
we must add that the Secretary has exhibited as
much ingenuity in specializing on assumed pre-
misses, as he sometimes does in reasoning upon
present facts.
The aggregate of expenditures for the pre-
sent year he states to be $26,643,656. This is
Van Buren, economy. But to the Harrison eco
ncmy he makes the very liberal allowance of
81, 1852 and even this, he thinks, is singh
er than the estimated amount of new and per-
appropriations" by the sum of 81 1854, 47O!
And how does the Secretary pretend the ex-
penditures may be kept down so much lower
than his own friends have habitually resorted to.
Why, by "merely lessening the appropriations
for the service of lS4l below the estimates ~
There's wisdom and modesty for you
But in 1912, he thinks it will be necessary to
make still greater reductions in the expenditures,
on account Of the Compromise Act operating TO
diminish the revenue in that year quite fire mil
lions He would thus limit General Harrison's
administration to about ten or eleven millions for
the expenses of 1912 But how is he to get
along, if it has been necessary for Mr.. Van Blu
rem to expend 80 to 40 millions year? There
is no necessity for borrowing, none Of creating
permanent debt, none of tariff; oh no. moth
ing can be done, which Mr. Van Buren, has
done, but General Harrison must make cores
ponding reduction in the expenditures
With what inefable grace does such stuff as
this come from men who have been expanding
the public money without stint, until finding the
Treasury bankrupted, the people arrested their
profigate career

MURDER or Mn. SuypAM.-The northern city
papers have been for several days past occupied with
speculations in regard to the sudden and mysterious
disappearance of Mr. Suydam, President of the
Farmers and Mechanics Bank at New Brunswick, n
j. Soon after consultation with the directory of the
bank few days ago, at which he expressed emphatic
opposition to dscountng certain paper that was pre-
sentcd he ef, the bank supposed TO go home
but was never more seen alive His disappearance
attributed to a sudden alienation of mind.
Il appears, however, that he was inhumanly muir
dered His body has been found in the cellar Of one
Peter Robinson. Suspicion had been entertained
the floor was removed-the place observed-and the
body found four feet under ground The skull was
broken probably by a violent blow from hammer
axe or other instrument. Robinson is carpenter by
trade and had purchased the lot and received the mo-
ney for building the house credit from Mr. Suy-
dam Mr. Suydam was undoubtedly induced TO come
othe house Of Robinson under the promise OF paying
off his obligations the mortgage bond, notes &c
were all found in Robinson's possession Robinson
his wife, and brother, secured

II was received with great applause.
ADDRESS.
Once more the soul of Poesy awakes;
Strikes the wild harp and slumbring silence breaks-
The Thcspian muse resumes her wonted reign,
And waves her sceptre DER the scene again,
Spirits arise, obedient to my CALL
And aid me as the candidate of all
Ye ladies, who in expectation sit,
Whether or not we players make hill,
| crave your kind indulgence for awhile
Lend me your gentlest ear, and brightest smile
Ye gallant beaux, to you next appeal,
And with you all most cordially I'll deal
This is our Capitol, Behold in me
The head and President Of all you see
And with your patronage, without doubt,
feel assured nee shall be turned out
Perhaps you'll think that it is strange, indeed.
That should hold the Presidential lead
Is it because am female pray,
That am not allowed to hold a sway7
Because this land meier ownd female power,
Am to lose ambitions fiery hour
Mo- ladies rather let us all revolt
No longer let each be the quiet dot
That bows herself to lords Of the creation,
And thinks smile her greatest obligation
Rise upl arouse ambitions slumb' ring passion
Ladies shall reign and will lead the fashion.
Yet stay must not harsh measure,
am not here to draw down your dspeasure
But humby come to crave your condescension,
And one thing more which Pm compell'd to mention
It's said by those, my predecessors here,
And this complaint was Justly made, fear,
That ye whove come each night to view the play
Have, as tho half displsased, refused to stay
And sec the merry farce that brings the smile
Ofjoyfu mirth untouched and free from guile
IT'S to be hoped that you will expiate
This crime for penitence ne'er comes too late;
And as we think TO sojourn for awhile,
trust at least you'll grant us fair trial
Stay for our farce as signs of your repentance
Mind, il you don't I'll pass dreadful sentence,
Yet Ill be lcnient-choose your punishment
Say aught---yct stay--say aught but Punishment
Now for our trial we're not your judges now,
But to your kind indulgence must we bow,
And tho ] take the ladies part to night,
III not dcfiaud mankind OF its due right
Mankind the stately oak that filings its shade
Der the cool sward with summer flowers arrayed
That crowns the vale DER which its branches fall,
And looks and seems the monarch Of them all
Woman, the bushing rose that clings around,
The sturdy tree, by verdant foliage crownd
And when that strong support Is torn away,
Falls to the earth and sinks into decay
IT'S thus throw myself on your support
Your generosity is my resort
| feel assured you'll not withhold your stay
And snatch the anchor Of my hope away
No with all care our efforts shall be made
For your amusement, nought shall be delayed
trust that all will strive to aid our cause,
And crown our best cndeayors with applause.
