THE REPEAL OF THE LAND BILL

We rejoice that President TYLER has had the
independence and patriotism to recommend repeal
of the DisTRIBurIoN Bill. We have frequently
spoken of this measure the most exceptionable of
all the measures of the extra session II was uncon-
sttutional in reality, applying the national revenue
collected for the general defence and welfare"
for distribution among the States. 1t nexpedient
there neither ''surplus" in the Treasury nor
was there likely to be surplus 1t was corruptng
its whole tendency being to render the States ributa-
ries to the general government. Ubiquitous was
the whole scheme, all objections to it sunk into
insgnifcance when placed in the scale against the
desperate scheme of desperate politician. 1t was
a splendid bride for the Presidency 1t the last
card of HENRY CLAY. His American System hobby
had broken down, and the Land Bill must supply its
place.

MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT TO CON

Us.
Congress has been in session about four months,
and have as yet done literally nothing. Yes, they
have done something passed act to pay them
selves their wages and act to authorize the issue OF
a batch of Treasury notes Such is the carelessness
or inatention of many of the members Of the House,
that often, very often it has been compelled to ad-
journ for want Of qu1rum-that is, more than half
the members being absent During most of this time,
the Government Is in a state Of insolvency. lis credit
depreciatug its Treasury empty, and he friends Of
our system of Gov rnment almost desparing OF Its
success AT this time whilst the House has
been trf fling away It's time or majority OF rs mem
bels amusing themselves, ''the country was sending
up to the House weeping wall, imTlorIng them
for the peoples sake fol the counlys sake for Gods
sake, TO do omelhing.

sident has deemed 1t his duty TO urge them to per-
torrance OF the business for which they were elected,
tie has sent them message which if they have any
feeling Of shame left, will cause the blood to mantle
upon their cheeks.
In the course ofhe message the President over and
over again, urges upon Congress prompt action In
this matter he will be sustained by every man ofeyery
party IN the nation.
II Congress shall not put their shoulders to
the wheel and raise the nation out of the mire into
which they have gotten it, the next message will be
sent To its members by heir constituents:

Message to the House of Representatives declining
to comply with its request to furnish it with list Of
such members of the last and the present Congress
have been applicants for Office either to the Execu-
tive or either of the heads of Departments. The Pre-
sdent is right in refusing to comply with this extra
ordinary call and gives very sound reasons for his
refusal 1t was an officous and meddesome interfe-

to do and that body had much better have been en-

these all attended to- let adjourn and go home
We like to see every Department of the Government

justice, must condemn what we conceive to be an
of the Legislative upon the Executive
as we would similar attempt of the Execu-
tive upon any of the other Departments.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

We publish to-day the Presidents Message, to
which we referred in our Congresso nal record yes
terJay. 1t exhibits melancholy view Of the national
finances, which ought to urge Congress TO the adop-
ton of vigorous measures to meet the exigences OF
the times. The National Legislature has already
triled with the public embarrassments until they
have exhausted the patience of the people, and we
pray that il may leave of its Of factions and
ieuds of rival leaders, and do something last for
the country. 1t should begin, as the President ad
vises, by undoing The leading measures ofthe extra
session. The Distribution bill mus be killed, and
the land revenue continued in the service oil tic Ma
tional Treasury whence nothing short Of party mad
ness would think now of dverting it.

We learn from Washington that the office of FRS,
Comptroller of the Treasury, has at last been filled
and we believe, ably filed by the appointment of our
townsman JAMES w. McCULLocH; whose nomination
was confirmed by the Senate on Friday last. We
have always been opposed to Mr. McCuLLocH in poll
tics but we have always respected him man and
sympathized with him in his manly struggles with
adversely. We think the appointment good one
for his business habits, his clear and strong intellect
and his mercantile and legal education eminently
qualify him for the Office Baltimore Republican.
