The extraordinary message of Mr. Polk is still
every tongue and every journal is treating OF II
in its own way. All agree IN viewing II as one Of
ths most important if not startling documents that
has issued from Washington for many years past,
probably since the last war
The President having taken his position, and given
aprogramme ot his principles, equally interesting
to America and Europe, the next important question
that will arise i, whether he will be supported by
the two houses of Congress, touching our foreign
and domestic afairs2' Let US look at this impor-
tan question in the most interesting point of view

by alarming the public mind, and paving the way
for panic, both in foreign and domestic affairs

nar organ Of opposition to the administration, after

scrbing the deep impression which that document

party there.
