PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

We publish the Message entire this week,
for the reason that some Of our readers may think
that The extracts which we published last week
we're not sufficient to give a full and fair view of
its character and recommendations. The whole
country has been looking for this document with
uncommon interest, especially the free States.
After having heard 50 much about "Tayor and
free Soil " we were anxious to see the fufllment
of those declarations which have been made to
the free States. Upon the subject of a tariff
and internal Improvements it is sufficiently dis.
tinct 10 satisfy any Northern wing. Upon the
independent treasury, although it does not re-
commend its repeal, yet it goes for material al.
terations. Of this document the Boston Repub-
lcan says: at will doubtless be read with I'm
common interest by people OF all parties who
wish 10 ascertain the opinions of man who
was elected without being committed to any
principles or measures. 1t has The merit Of brew.
ity "a merit all will appreciate. Upon the
great question that agates and divides the pub
lie mind it is explicit enough. No intelligent
man can fail to understand it. The admins
tration now stands clearly revealed to the PEG
pe-pledged in favor of non intervention, and
against the application of the Wimot proviso to
the new Territories. Congress is cautioned
against agi:ating the subject warned against t.
This is tho promised Free Soil administration
which the people were deuded into supporting.
We hope we shall hearn more about the Free
esdraas s~s-'-s's',ss
sters who HI We. cheated and deceived the PEG
pie should now be silent. Anti slavery men
who have been deiuded into the support of 'I'ay-
Tor and Free Soil should no longer follow the
lead of men who fiatler to deceive, and promise
to betray. The people are now told that the
action of New Mexico and California must be-
awaited and that sue should abstain from the
introduction Of those erciting topics Of sectional
character ,Ohich hare hitherto produced painful ap-
prehensiOns in The public mind" All this means
that the voice OF humanity and freedom must be
stifed to ullay the apprehensions of the slave
power" "
But 10 US, 1.-The closing paragraph is the most
significant. The President, speaking ofsathc
Union, says: Whatever dangers may threat
en- it, shall stand by it and mantaint in its in
egrity, Ito the full extent of the obligations i'm.
posed, and the power conferred upon me By the
constitution"
Who does not know that the whole South, itE
years, have took the ground, that the ntro1uc-
ton Of the slavery question threatens its DISCO
luton? Gen. Taylor now tells the American
people las we understand him. that the whole
power conferred upon him by the constitution,
shall be used 10 oppose the threatening dangers
of the Wilmot proyiso, and those exciting top
les of sectional character, which so far as the
shareholders are concerned are full of paintM
apprehmsions. How FAR the wings the North
will approve of such sentiments we shall see

ANOTHER v1CTIM.-THE MA.
TIONAL DEMOCRACY.

The slave power sezes upon its victims wheth-
er North or South. Another victim has been
sacrificed to appease its wrath. Thomas H.
Benton, the oldest and one of the ablest sena4
tors and statesmen in the United States, has
been astracised at the beck of Hangman Foote
and J. C. Calhoun.S And what has Mr.. Benton
done? Has he advocated the passage Of the
Wilmol proviso? No. Has he declared him
self in favor of abolishing the hellish traffic in
human flesh in the Captt2 No. Has he ex-
pressed a desire for the abolition of slavery
wherever the constitution would permit? No.
Then what has he done to str up the wrath Of
the whole South +? He hes declared that Con-
gress has the power TO ,egislate fol the Terrific
ries and for the District % Columbia. And fer
this, the whole pack d thirsty slavehold-
ers pounce upon him purpose of degrad-
ing him before the Am gdnN3e"pIc. And where
were the Democrats from the free States, when
this outrage was committed ?-who demonstrated
when the knife to the hilt was plunged into Col.
Benton? John P. Hale and Salmon Chase were
the only Senators from the free States who sup.
ported hinr, and demonstrated against the course
pursued by the Slave POWER. Was it for fear
that the national democracy would be disturbed
if victim was not slaughtered to appease the
- { 'ss'gt--slavery? We ask again: Why
on~ ,,' Senators from the qRandoned by the
ons WIN tae people tolerate such things How h
'O"g will Representatives from the fsaa g. io''
quietly by and witness the sacrifice of he, ,h
Tba oIa a S uare 10 speak in favor of freedom !?
ne old democratic party In the free States bano
' uone It, and let the eternal disgrace rest uDo.

FstIOv Citizens Of The Senate
and House Of Representatives.
Sixty years have elapsed since the establish
ment of this Government, and the Congress of
the United States again assemblies to legislate
tor an empire of freemen. The predictions OF
evil prophets, who formerly pretended to foretell
the downfall of our institutions, are now remem
bered only to be derided, and the United States
of America, at this moment present to the world
the most stable and permanent Government on
earth.
Such is the result of the labors of those who
have gone before us Upon Congress will emf
nently depend the future maintenance of our sys-
tenn Of free government and the transmission OF
it, unmpaired, to posterity.
We are at peace with ale the nations of the
world, and seek to maintain our cherished relat-
ions of amity with them During the past year. we
have been blessed by kind Providence with
an abundance of the fruits of the earth; and, al
though the destroying angel, for a time, visited
extensive portions of our territory with the rsva-
