FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER lo. ls4,
THE MESSAGE.


The Message of President Tyler will be
found in our columns to day. Its style IS
simple and unambi,ious, and, in this regard
will do US, in the language of the Express,
no discredt either at home or abroad. His
exposition Of our foreign relations is quite
satisfactory, and his remarks upon our do
nestle condition arc, in our Judgment, APP
propriate and just in the main. The Army,
the Navy, and the Post Office Department,
are represented TO be in good condition,
and the President endorses the adn,inis,ra-
tons Of their respective officers with cheer
fulncss ane pleasure. The Exchcqncr pro-
icct IS again recommended as IA remedy for
the evils which aillict the body polite, and
his recommendation is enforced with new ar
gumcn's urged with ability and point
Deeming the issue now to be between the
ExchrqIer and the Sub. Treasury, we 90 for
the former as vastly preferable to the latter,
and we hope Congress may yet be induced
to give it trial, though, we confess, the pros
pect that they will 10 so, is not at al cncour-
aging. The views of the President upon the
Tariff arc very tolcrable for Virginian.-
He goes for revenue duties with a" wise dis
elimination" IN favor of our own industry
and labor-and urges, besides, that the sys-
TEN, to be productive of good, should be
permanent. Ills remarks upon the Ware.
housing System we especially approve, aud
endorse, with pleasure, the following Just
comments from tie Boston Atlas:
"Tl'e hest part Of the Message-and it is
one which we altogether approve, is that in
which, when speaking of our present Tariff,
he strongly recommends the Warehousing
system. Mere common justice TO our i'm
porting merchants appears to US to demand
the adoption of such system. 1t is mani
testify unjust for the Government to require
of the merchants the payment of duties on
all importations in cash AT the moment of en-
lering their merchandise. While the impor-
ter is Obliged, in most instances, to keep his
goods on hand, for a considerable length Of
time, to find purchaser, and then to sell them
on a long credit, with all the hazard of loss,
to oblige him TO take his goods and pay the
Government the porSon which it expects of
him, IN money, is requIsilion Of NANTES,
injustIce-and we will certainly lend Presi-
dent Tyler what little aid we can, to redress
this grievance. "

NOW'S TIE TINE,

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

We have had barely time to glance through the
President Message before putting it iOpress. In It's
style and character, as an official paper, it certainly
Uses above It's predecessors from the same quarter
But we cannot say that, in the additional perspicuity
and strength impaired TO the Executive document we
have equal earnest given of sound political views
We must confess that the new ability with which the
bad measures effected are defended, aud those in con
empla ion are urged is only evidence that sinister
influence prevails, and will continue 10 prevail in the
Administration utterly frustrating the sang Inc homes
entertained by many, that Democratic professions OF
faith to be followed by good works. The lead
ing features of the message however plausibly dis
guiscd are British, not American.
