The Journal and Messenger, Wing paper,
published at Macon, Georgia, is unable TO
perceive 1.-THE propriety Of the announcement
made mi-officially in the Republic" that the
PRESIDENT had not changed-as had been
falsely represented, and was by many be-
lieved-his opinions in regard 10 the recon-
mehdations made by him, in his California mes
sage for the adjustment of the territorial -sla-
very question. The object of such announce
ment, that paper thinks, "must have been TO
defeat the Compromise proposed by Mr.. CLAY
and his friends" which plan being, in its opin-
ion. ''more favorable 10 the South" than the
line Of policy recommended by the PREsrDE NT,
it the Journal and Messenger - has been
forced to the conclusion that the Republic has
deliberately assumed position of hostility to
the Southern States" and recommends that, un-
less we abandon the support Of the principle Of
adjustment proposed by the President, we
should "be abandoned al once by our Southern
subscribers in body" Rather than be com
mitted to any such policy as that, the Southern
people, the Journal and Messenger tells us.
Twill abandon even the PRESIDENT. much as
they have loved him. and fully as they confided
in him"
As our contemporary evidently has not sufii-
GENTLY considered, and does not, therefore. un-
derstand the subject he has undertaken to dis
cuss, we hope he will do ms the favor. and him
self the Justice, to enter along with us into a
calm and dspassionate examination Of the Just
claims which the compromise plan has to be re-
garded as measure 50 peculiarly and largely
conservative and indicative Of Southern rights
and interests, that all who venture TO oppose
any one Of its provisions may be nghtfully de-
nounced as assuming ga position of hostility TO
the Southern States"
With regard 10 two Of the measures embraced
in that plan--the fugitive slave bill and the bill
aboishing the slave trade in the District Of Co
lumbia--we may content ourselves with remark
ing, that our support Of the policy recommended
by the PRESIDENT cannot be tortured into OPP
position TO them.
The PREsIDENT's recommendations relating
altogether TO other and different subjects, have
no connexion whatever with those measures,
which, be it recollected, are not included in the

Congress.

In the Senate, ON Saturday, after the morning
hour, the consideration of the Compromise bill
was resumed. An amendment proposed by Mr.
HALE, granting the right of appeal, &c, in all
cases referring to personal liberty, from the de-
cision of the territorial courts to the Supreme
Court Of the United States, was adopted.
Pending a motion TO amend by inserting that
the Territories when admitted as States shall be
admitted with or without slavery as their CON
situations may prescribe, the Senate adjourned.
In the House Of Representatives., in Commit
tee OF the Whole on the state of the Union,
while the California bill was under considera-
ton, Mr.. lSGE moved an amendment 90 that
Of Mr.. GREEN, extending the Missouri compro-
mise line to the Pacific ocean, providing . that
the people Of any portion of the said Territory
when assembled in convention, in pursuance OF
constitutional authority, To form State consti-
tuition, have right to adopt or exclude African
slavery, and the determination of this question,
by the adoption or exclusion Of African slavery,
