We have curtailed in some degree the
Presidents message, owing to the small
size of our sheet. We have, however.
given all that is Immediately interesting,
or vitality important 10 the citizens ofthis
country. The tone of the message in re-
gard TO the subject Of existing difficulties
with Great Britain is mild, yet candid
and impressive. We cannot but believe
that we are 10 have war, with Britain,
from reading the satesmenls contained
10 the message. 1t is almost impossible
no reconcile the difficulties existing be,
tween the two countries, by negotiation
or diplomacy, and they must be settled
consequently, by an appeal to arms. orr
the plan of "Fiscal Agent" which the
President developes, we leave our rea~
ders to form their own opinions. We can.
not but conceive it to be, a new tangled
discounling sub'treasury scheme. But

We publish this Iaornng-we could not do 1t
sooner-the expose by Hon. JONATHAN ROBERTS
of the causes of his removal from the office of Co.
lector of the Customs at Philadelphia. We need
not bespeak for it the profound attention of every
Ingenious and patriotic mind. The charnel-
house which it uncovers had been penetrated be-
fore, but never did it seem SO revolving Here is
an aged and incorruptihIe Patrioi--the friend and
associate of Mr.. Tyler through quarter of q cen
fury, elevated by him to the Coectorship without
a request or Il petition in his behalf, discharging
his duties with unimpeached fidelity and integrity,
yet ruthlessy thrust out of Office under cilcum-
stances of the deepest indignity-and for what ?
Is there reason which any friend of John Tyler
could give without BLUSH! He is not even ac-
cused personally of Clayism, though we saw John
Tyler and Jonathan Roberts in the Harrisburg
Convention doing all they could to secure the
nomination of HENRY CLAY. Each knew hin,
well, his principles, his course, his measures and
then John Tyler was even with the foremost in the
support of that statesman Ncac he turns his
bosom friend out of high office to which he had
himself appointed him, because he will not pro
scribe his subordinates who suspected of fu
voring Mr.. Clay

Tae Right of smerasc-Rhode Island.

The tiffany Argus Of yesterday uavesiies a
single remark in last article on the Rhode
Island question, and winds up as follows:
1.-The Log Cabin editor orge that this right OF suffrage
is private dlsh to be dispensed as matter OF favor at
the pleasure OF any pretended proprietor but common
right inherent 10 the masses the Withholding OF which Id
plies wrong, aud that The people nave right tG help
themselves 20 their own IN tue way that peaseth them
best with ceremony or without
Nov as we happen to be daily accused of ia
voring still wider extension of the Right CT Sut-
frage than cur circuitously Democratic cotempo-
rary, the Argus, we will feel obliged by plain
answer from that paper to the following questions
1. Can the non-freehodng black people of the
State of Newly ork "belp themselves to the
Right of Suffrage and il SO, will the Argus be
good enough to tell US how
2. Can the Right of Suffrage be extended TO
these persons by any action Of theirs, aided by a
minority of the present voters, they together
shutting a majority of the whole number That
is TO say: If 100000 legal vsters opposed to
such extension, can200 600 legal voters and 80 600
unfranchised blacks legally, peacefully constitu-
Honaly, extend to the latter the Right of Suf
frasel
3. Is there any legal, peaceful, constitutional
mode of extending the Right of Suffrage to these
blacks except through State Convention called
by the eristing legal authorities, and chosen by a
Suffrage regulated by The existing constitution,
or laws made in pursuance thereof
The Argus has opened this subject with US. We
trust that paper will admit that tits which should
be discussed soberiy, earnestly and profoundly,
and that buhoonery is exceedingly out of place in
considering it. We are anxious that the subjecl
should be fully understood by the public, and tc
this end will gladly discuss it with the Argus. a
such length and in such manner it shall prefer
each paper publishing both sides of the controver
sy in its daily and country editions. (Ours now
exceeds 10000 copies; and is not inferior to oul
cotemporary's in any respect.) What says the
| Argus
