The Message of President FILLMORE

The Message of President FILLMORE docu-
ment in more respects than one credable to him
as statesman and man-contains more in it that
we can approve than any Wing document that has
emanated from this quarter for long time 1t is
certainly able, neatly worded, plain, business
like State paper, expressing views frankly, and in
some cases boldly.
After taking the bold measure of forming his
Cabinet by placing Mr.. WEBSTER at its head, it is
not strange he should now have come out in
bold fat-footed approval Of the adjustment scheme
1t is useless to cover this up try to escape from
ii; the language Of the Message means this or it
has no meaning. His calm, quiet, decisive words
IN favor OF maintaining the law--of preserving the
integrity of the Consttuion-cannot bu. have their
effect on the country; while his language is as de-
cisive against any disturbance Of The compromise
measures. In all This the Presiden, has come up
to the expectations of those who opposed to
further political slavery agitation, and thus far has
done good work for the cause of the Union.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION OF MARY.
LAND has as yet done virtually nothing beyond its
organization. There- have been various PROPOSE
tons offered WHICH have been referred to commit
tees; but no vote has been taken which would in
dictate clearly what was the view or purpose of a
majority Of the members upon any Of the promi-
nent questions which were made the groundwork
Of the call Of the Convention. 1t is supposed that
the Convention will take a recess soon, till after
the Christmas holydays.

JUDGE BERRIEN's SPEECH

The Savannah Republican of the 2lst ultimo
contains short notice of this speech, from which
we make the following extracts. Judge B. spoke
for three hours. In conclusion he said "For any
wrongs which in his judgment the South had re-
: ceived, he proposed no remedies outside the Con-
sttuton, acts Of resistance to the 6 ,vernment,
no blow against the Union. He depicted the in
: evtable dlscords and dssensions which would
ensue upon any effort to form new Confederacies,
and demonstrated the certain and terrible evils
6 which would attend dissolution of the Union.
He proposed to fight the battles Of the South IN
the Union and upon the Constitution, and denied
to any man. or set Of men, the right to drag him
out of the Union without his consent" ..
The Republican adds: "Upon the whole, he is
the strongest Union man we have yet met with
