JOHN G.. FREMONT.
Presideni,s NEessage.

The Presidents annual message occu-
pies large portion Of our space TO day.
The copy We used (sn extra of the 81.
Josep Forum,) was full OF bluncers,
rendering the meaning entirely unin,el-
iigibe in several instances. We would
have iasen the trouble to have corrected
i, in accordanc &c with more perfect copy
received after most of il was in type, but
for the contempt felt for the author for
debssing the Office he fills by making his
message. instead Of a dignifed and i'm.
partial statement OF facts, mere parii-
Fan communication. full Of mis- state
menis. perversions and cslumnious char
ges against tho Republican party. Had
we taken time TO have read it before put
ting ii in type, we should have hesi:a-
ted to publish il, had we not rejected it
entirely. We regard it as mean in the
President TO take advantage Of the Gus
tom Of political papers. TO fill RePusli
can papers with Locofoco slang, under
cover of Presidential message. If he
thought TO gain any party advantage
thereby, it will prove signal failure. =

Fnnklin Pierce, the electioneerer IN

harrangue, comprehend all the facts
which would endanger his purpose. Ii
