OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

in the Message. 1t is exhibited in some

presiden. seems to have been actuated
by sincere desire To settle this question
ON terms Of iiberaliiy and; d;compromise.

CIV ofthis administration, are carried out
in legislation, President Polk will have
done as much 10 consolidate The permn

man who ever had held the rains OF pow
er. Faithfully has he redeemed his own
pledges and justified our statesmen in The
confidence they have repnsed in him. To
the Secretary Of the Treasury too is a
meed of nonor due, and we here take
especial satisfaction in expressing the high
qualification which fills every heart
amongst US a, the course of the President
