cludes thorough analysis to-day; nor indeed is

and in spirit. The high regard which it manifests
towards the law and the Constitution will give it
favor in the estimation of all good citizens for
may call ourselves by whatsoever designations we
may choose politically, yet in the end we must
look to the law and to the Constitution as furnish
ing the only palladium of satety. In the trials and
struggles which we may be called upon TO pass
through, the conservative hold which we main
tain upon principles known to be good, stands and
must stand as our main reliance Happy for the
country will it be SO long there men in au
thority who are worthy of their places, and worthy
OF the public confidence in that regard. II is with
heartfelt pleasure that we proffer this tribute

The PaEsIDENT's MEssAGE.-The Presidents
message is plain, business-like statement of the
public events, affecting national interests, which
have occurred in the past year. of the present con-
dition Of the various departments of the Govern
ment, the operation of some of the important acts
of Congress, and suggestions of notifications, and
the enactment of laws calculated to promote more
cffectually the public welfare. II opens with the
subject of the invasion of Cuba, and the remarks
upon this head distinguished for sound public
law and good national morals. The invasion is
characterized with proper terms of apprehension,
and the duty this nation to respect its laws
and the laws of nations strongly insisted upon.

again before them this morning We have no

must be permitted to remark that the reiterated
and emphatic declaration of President Fillmore,
that he considers the Compromise measures 4" a
final settlement in principle and substance of the
dangerous and exciting subjects which they en-
braced," will be received with profound satisfac-
ton throughout the whole country, and fully con
firms the high estimate of President Fllmorc's pa

tions which Previously entertained by the con-
servative masses of the whole country.

The PREsIDENT's MEssAGE.-The Presidents
message, if we do not greatly mistake the fairness
and candor of the American public, will be read
with great satisfaction. Coming as it does from
Wing President, know it will be expected and
said, that, a matter of course, would bestow
upon it commentator. But utterly disclan
the idea of looking upon il as partissns prais-
ing ii because it Is the official oppose of Wing
administration. We regard il most ereditable
document for country, and as calculated to ele
vate the Republic in the estimation of all the civil
lied nations of the earth Its sound doctrines, its
liberal sentiments, it5 elevated tone, all render it
worthy of the Chief Magistrate and of the Govern
ment at whose head he isplaccd. We will not, this
OCCASION enter into detailed examination of the
topics embraced in the message, and the manner
in which thoy discussed Indeed VIC could
only by doing recnpitulate what is in itself,
plain and succinct narrative of public affairs. 1t
is sufficient for US now tosay that in all the Presi
dents views with regard to our foreign policy, in
all Of his recommendations, and in the general
scope and design of his system, we much to APP
prove and nothing to condemn. When we read
we feel that hearing the advice OF true
patriot and sound statesman nor can we omit
the opportunity of saying that, in q man who is
proved to be go fully capable Of conducting the
affairs of tho nation, we have that confidence
which induces to hope that his services, in the
poeiion he now occupies, may be still longer So
cured for the good of his country.
