THE VEro.-The Union OF Saturday morning
contains the Presidents veto message in five
solid columns, and with no solid arguments
The poor Union, which advocated the bill, is
perfectly dumb upon the subject, thinking it
decent to wait day or two before it takes the
back track and praises the message.
In this city, the veto has excited the utmost
Indignation, and 1t is unsparingly condemned
on Change, and in almost all the newspapers
Many worthy persons, in narrow circumstances
have been bitterly disappointed by it. We
hope, however, they will not despair. The
complexion of the next Congress will he very
different from that of the present, and the Pres
ident may find that the veto power, of which he
seems so tenacious. and which he uses so I'M
scrupulously, will no longer serve his purpose
We believe these claims, which have twice been
declared valid by Congress, must ultimately be
satisfied. Our only fear is, that justice will
come too late, and only after many whose de-
clning years it would have consoled, have pas
sed away into that land where reputation and
rascalty are unknown.-Boston .atlos ..I
