The Message Of President Fillmore, which mo.
nopolires our coldihns to day, was received by
telegraph, at Chicago aurleg Tuesday night, and
BY mail. in the Chicago papers at this place on
Thursday morning. It was not sent by telegraph
west or south Of Chicago for thereason that the
line was not considered sufficiently in order to
send it beyond Peru, while it would not have
paid to have sent it only to Peru.
The task oftelegraphing it to Chicago was nc
complished in twelve hours certainly considering
the accuracy with which it was done, and the
length of the document, one Of the mos, success.
ful feat, Of telegraphing on record.
We are particularly indebted to the publishers
OF the Chicago 7riJ'sne, ArgUs, and Democrat,
for duplicate copies Of the Message, by means Of
which We were able to get it into type some ten
hours after its receipt here. The Pos, Master at
Aurora, or somebody up that way, has also put
our people under obligations for sending through
an extra mail. SO as not to detain the Message
some ten or twelve hours a. Aurora, az is the
case with our eastern mail at present
As to the Message itseh, we confess re have
not taken time to read the whole Of il yet but
what We have read inclines u, strongly to en-.
dorss the opinion expressed by the Chicago De-
moerat, that it is one Of the longest and Jgllest
documents Of the kind, that has ever been pro.
