The message, which has been made public clear able
and satisfactory document embracing arguments sustain
the positions of the author that unanswerabe The pol
icy that should govern Congress- and the powers that
granted by the constitution, in the disposal of the public
domain stated in such that almost every
tence brings conviction in itself The calculation of the
rights of the States distinct from the powers of Congress-
and the appropriate discrimination between the two cons
tues the principal part of the paper The position taken in
that regard such that the Stateghts advocate cannot but
be satisfied, and the arguments adduced sustain it will
battle the skill of the most skul radical Sufficient is said
let the democratic party understand that they have
mistaken the in whom they reposed their confidence
and that the public domain win not under his adminsra
on DO squandered the detriment Of the interests
hewhoe country by prodga appropriations for private
State benefit

The message examines the questions involved in the bill
with perfect candor and great ability The President
the constitutional objections such grant too strong to be
eyaded doubted To the policy of this bill he also objects
If ten millions Of of land may be voted INDECENT
insane ten twenty millions may be voted to the nd
gent who not insane Thus all the poor and unfortunate
of the land may become objects Of charity The
idotc, the nrm the sick the poor and every other class
whose morunes excite the ympathes of the phanthropc
may, in the way, under the principle of this b
made subjects of government bounty and thus the whole
public domain will soon disappear.
