PRESIDENTS NEssAGE.

The message of Mr.. Buchanan is 4 long af-
lair, and occupies much of our paper. The
President recommends a government loan,
squints little at low wages, is down on State
banks: attributes our financial cnbarrassmentS
to an .sextravagant and vicious system Of pa
per currency and bark credits,'' recommends
the passage of Z bankrupt law applicable TO
banking institutions, and the issue Of treasury
orders. which is, in our humble opinion, only
a new name under which to issue sLin-plasters.
and may, perhaps, in sumo respects be con
sidered hard currency. But let's have 'em,
so that we may see how they viii operate.
There being misunderstanding between Eng
land and the United St,tes relative TO the
Clayton-Bulwcr treaty, the President thinks
the wisest course is to abrogatc it by mutual
consent. With the exception ct Spain, our
| foreign relations are peaceful. Filiibustcr cx-
peditions are condemned, and in order to sup
press the Mormon rebellion in Utah, the for
nation of four additional regiments Of troops
is recommended By the President. He con
tends that the Kansas Constitutional ConYcn-
ton WAS not bound by the Kansas \ ebrasla
act to submit any other portion of the Consti-
tuition TO vote of the people, except that
which relates to Slavcry-that is, he is in favor
OF sustaining the action OF the Lecomptou
| constitutional movement, which Douglas, the
father OF the Kansas Nebraska act, condemns
as he does the position the President has taken.
| Our space, however, viii not permit US 20 give
the message an extended notice We trust
every one WILL give it careful perusal.

AwFUL TRAGEDY.-Wc learn of an attempt
at murder and suicide, which took place Oh
Tuesday the lst Dec, at Underdcllo, LiEings-
ton Co.. Michigan, the parties being recently
residents Of this place. 1t appears that
Charles Southwick, formerly employed as
carriage trimmer here, conceived an attach
ment for Miss Laura Evans, also a recent
resident in this place. The lady did not re-
ciproc ate the feeling, and removed not long
since, with her father TO Michigan. Thither
it would seem Southwick followed her with
some bad intent. lie there renewed 10 her
solicitati' rs, and rejected. BY some
means he gained access 20 her bedroom on
the night above stated and with razor cut her
throat. She escaped from the room TO that
OF her father, gave the alarm, and on search
being made Southwick was found living in hor
room, having attempted TO commit suicide by
cutting his own throat. At the latest accounts
both were alive but lying in very critical
situation. Southwick, it was thought would
recover, and was about being removed to the
county jail.-Wsq9riHs Journal.
Miss Evans is daughter of Samuel Evans,
who kept the Mansion House in Clearfeld
Borough in 1856, and is well known here.

REMOVAL or SIC. SrASroS.-On last We'd
nesday, President Buchanan sent into the L.
5. Senate the nomination of Gen. J. w. Den
yer, as the successor of Mr.. Stanton, the pres
ent acting Governor of Kansas, who has been
removed in consequence of his having called
special session of the Kansas Legislature,
which is viewed as violation of the instruc-
tions given him and Gov. Walker Mr.. Dem
ver's nomination has been confirmed by the
Senate. This effort to thwart the action of
the Territorial Legislature against the Lecomp-
ton constitutional movement, will however,
We think, fail, as the Legislature was to have
assembled on the eth inst.

s'IHE OLDEST "A Crawford
County paper, Of recent date, makes men
ton Of a Lady who had reached the age Of 100
years, and claims her as the oldest person now
living in Western Pennsylvania. We are not
willing to admit this. for friend informs rs
that we have now residing in Burnside town
ship, Clearfeld county, the oldest man and
woman perhaps in the State-Hr. Ludwick
Snyder and his wife. Mr.. Snyder, in August
last, attained the great age of one hundred and
eleren gears. and Mrs. Snyder cRs haadred 1n9
sereH. Both now enjoy good health, and are
quite as active as persons Of so to 20 years OF
age. Mr.. Snyder is gun-smith, and has
within ten years made a gun, and has walked
from home to CIearield town and back TO Cur
wcnsville, a distance Of so miles, in one dav.
since his one hundreth year. We believe this
cannot be beaten, and claim for our county
the oldest inhabitants in the State of Penn

a dispatch TO the \. Y. T,ibane from Wash
ington, under date of Dec. II, says :-ssThe
breach between Senator Douglas and the South
is hourly widening. There is much violent
talk against him, even to the extent of threat
ening to hang him, or at least TO tar and feath-
er him. These menaces are of course idle
and viii come to nothing, but they Indicate
the depth OF the blow he has dealt the Slave
Power" The same paper says it is ssassured
that he will triumph in his present policy and
bring Old Buck to his marrow bones. If so.
we entreat him not to turn the President ont Of
the party Let magnanimity be rcciprocated.' -
Late adyiees from Mexico represent that the
position of the Government had improved. the
forces of the opposition having been routed,
and Comonfort formally Installed. Campca-
chy was still besicged, and the inhabitants
were in great want of provisions.

Ha- We do not believe that any man,
pretending to dcccncy and love Of country,
can feel-whatevcr be may say--other-
wise than humiliated by the appointment
to office of the notorious Capt. Rynders.
A President, who knows the man, as Buch-
anan knows him, can not expect the conf
dence Of the honest, nor can he have the
sanction of his own coscionco after such
an act Even in the democratic party,
thousands can be found who, though rs
worthless as patriots, have more reputation
for deceney and talents, and whose APP
pointment would not have outraged the
morality Of the whole country. Rynders
las made himself conspicuous in every
movement in the day, that is marked by
radicalism and lawlessness; and instead Of
being rebuked for vices, he is thus openly
rewarded, and encouragement given to the
practice of the very worst political sins
AZ the surest road to preferment. Men
who can not, by superior abilities, force
their way to distinction, are here laugh
that an excess of political hcenciousnes'
leads to the same point
