OPINIONS OF THE PRESS ON THE PRE-
SlDENT'S MESSAGE.
From HE Pitfsbure


This document appears to have been well consider
ed, and is certainly well written. The President
takes finn and manly stand on the subject of ag
gressions our commerce, by the British cruisers

will never be recognized by the British Government
sanctioned by their authority. Though tenacious
Of her authority and her right, she will not risk
with the United States TO defend the illegal practices
OF any of her cruisers
lie recommends fiscal agent to restore both cur
rency and exchange. His opinion that those bank
ing institutions which unable redeem their is
sues, should go into liquidation, all will admit be
correct.
Heinyites Congress to ask of the Secretary Of the
Treasury plan of this iscality, and shadows forth
what that plan will be-
The state Of public feeling in regard te the curren-
cy and exchange, is SUCH that the President will find
it disposed to acquesce in almost any reasonable
sure, that will have the sanction of government
Against its experiments the people have waIIed until
their means have been exhausted, and general wish
will be expressed, that their Representatives lend
favorable to any feasible plan Of the Executive.

This document which graces our columns TO day,
will be found of interest TO all who feel i pro.
per concern about the affairs of the nation.
On the subject ofihe Tariff, while nothing but the
right TO -gulate the ties for urposes OF revenue
asserted the right to make those duties discrimna-
tng toi the protection OF anuacturers is maintain.
ed. Onthe public land question and the distribution
law the doctrines held correct.
But the main point of allis the subject of national
currency, and here the author of the Message has let
himself out. tie has gone SO far beyond all expec
taiion as to recommend Government Bank, with
power, besides holding all the public funds in the
hands of Government officers, OF dealing in exchan-
yes, issuing Treasury notes receiving deposits from
Individuals and issuing cert icates of them for crcu
lation. The plan, in our handle opinion is perhaps
the that Conceal Jackson would have proposed,
had he been called on to furnish model.

As the present is the most abored of Mi Tylers
Executive Messages also is ii the which for its
STYLE temper, and recommendations the best cacu
lated to rebound to his credit and the most likely TO
meet with public favor.
From the Lewistoicn Pa Gazette.
1t is Of just proper length in this respect singular
departure from the practice Of the Presidents late
days for which printers will all feel duly grateful
With the single exception of the part which relates
the currency and its regulation regard the Mes
sage of the most manly and dgnified-m
imDucd with the true and genuine American spirit
Of any Message sent into Congress since the days OF
Jefferson, Madison, aud the of that school
There is force and directness in its purpose and
style, which must win for President Tyler the admi-
ration of adiscerning public, whatever may be said by
portion regarding his hererodoxy touching their e-
nets upon the currency question. He nowhere pal
to the people in the double sense but on the con-
uary he defines his position" upon every important
governmental policy, with clearness that would
brighten Martin Van Buren, and his school, almost
from their proprety.
We confess it is our opinion that if there are any
who INDUCED lingering hope that President Tyler
would sanction any thing savofng (per y OF the
old United States bans, their hopes blasted and
they may shut up shop whilst John Tyler remains
President of the United States
