The Presidents message to the thirty fifth Congress will
touch upon variety Of subjects of high national import
ance, both foreign and domestic.
The number OF subjects TO be treated in relation TO in
terral concerns increased by the Of the
markabe financial panic which has swept the whole
terprse paraysng the currency and scattering the
country the wrecks of broken banks and bankrupt bro
kers and Spectators, and even of the abes and beet
established commercial Louses. The President will reccs
sary comment this state Of things and its causes and
the means Of preventing it, recurrence
Il confidently believed that the President will take
oason To express upon this subject the views which he
has heretofore ably maintained in his capacity
Senator and Representative in Congress. 1t than
probable that he will suggest remedy for such
caamtous reyusions measures for widening the basis
Of the metallic currency This is to be done by the
direct interference of federal legislation. Congress

dollars, but they may enact compulsory bank
ru act for the purpose Of compelling bank which
issues paper 10 go into liquidation il shall
fuse or neglect to redeem ts notes with specie The pco
pic OF the country evidently prepared for these rad
ca measures.
The President will necessarily refer to the Kansas quos-
ton and instructions which he had given to Governor
walker IN relation 10 the principles upon which the Ter
rtoria government was to be administered. Upon the
course Of Governor Walker he may may not comment
II would appear that he is yet uncommed upon this
subject and Is not 10 be taken for granted that any
newspaper has been yet authorized by him, by any
member Of the Cabinet, TO commit the administration in
favor OF The action OF the Constitutional Convention of
the adoption Of the constitution which may be presented
10 Congress
II Is known that Governor Walker who arrived here
the 18th instant has had long interviews with the Pre-
sdent IN relation 10 the affairs OF Kansas they
stand. Upon his statement Of facts well upon
currencc TO the principles OF the Kansas Nebraska act
the President will make his mind upon the questions
which are soon TO agitatc Congress and the country
in relation TO that Territory.
It is now known that Governor Walker himself, and
nine out Of ten of the Kansas people utterly hostile
10 the action Of the Constitutional Convention, and that
the question no longer Of slavery but OF the right
OF the Kansas people to seli-goyernment.
