THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE IN FRANCE

The Paris correspondent of the New York Com
mercial Advertiser gives the following account of
the reception of Mr.. Buclanans message in that
city
1.-THE Presidents message has been received here and
published in full by all the journals 1t teegaphed
through from Liverpool to Paris in five hours and half
the same time required to telegraph 1t to London
But the two copies different wires, and while
the copy to London in English that to Paris
in French This fact shows yoh the importance given
here to the message The comments Of the press this
document are various The Debas says that it approach
es more than any previous Presidents message tho style
of an address from throne in Europe. But the Dcbats
is alone in this criticism.
1.-The Steele takes exceptions to Mr. BucLanans Kan
sas doctrines and promises in subsequent article
gumcnt that subject Beyond this the Steele has moth
ing but eulogums for the message The financial opin
ions laid down by the President and his severity toward
the banks criticised by the de too for the
emergency These opinions and recommendations, how
ever have the less produced profound impression
because they have found their application here well
in the States and everybody seeking remedies for
the financial endorsements OF the moment, the
mendaons of the President of the United States natural
y attracted attention On this part of the message the
journals preparing to give extended discussion
Mr. Buchanan has there advanced ideas new to
Frenchmen.
Again the Presidents decisive tone in the close of
the message has also attracted much attention. The
marks wasteul expenditures and the evil principle Of
government loans fit European governments better than
our own and these remarks will stir every throne in Eu
rome.

THE INDIANA STATE CONVENTION.

The indianapolis Sentinel Of the 9th brings us the
official proceedings Of the Indiana democratic State
convention, held on the 9th inst. Gov. Willard was
II. Stewart vice presidents, and Richard c. Stevens
John b. Norman John S. Williams, Scion Truman,
and William Ii. Slater were appointed secretaries
AS we have already mentioned, the old State Off
GERS, with one exception, were nominated for re-
election. The candidate for treasurer having de-
clined to accept owing to objections to the platform,
Nathaniel F. Cunningham, esq, of vigo county, was
nominated to fill up the ticket The series of reso-
lutions, as published in yesterday mornings Union,
were adopted by vote of 374 to l86.
The Sentinel says that every county in the State
was represented except three, that the proceedings
Of the convention conducted honoraby and
fairly and with the utmost liberation Of sentiment
The resolutions were adopted after "a full, ANNA
ted, and often exciting, discussion" The nominal
tons unanimously confirmed and the democ-
racy of Indiana will go into the contest of the
ing fall with the prestige of success.
Upon an examination of the official report of the
proceedings we find that our statement relative to
the passage of the resolution specially telegraphed
to this and other cities is substantially correct. A
resolution was adopted, but it differs in material
respect from that sent by telegraph. twas adopted
in the following form: d}a a rl viafs
Resolved That still in favor of the great doc
trine of the Nebraska bill and that by pract-
cal application of that doctrine the people of State
Territory vested with the right Of ratfying
jecng at the baot-box any constitution TIT may be
formed for their and that hereafter Ter
ritory should be admitted into the Union State with
out fair expression Of the will Of the people being first
had upon the constitution accompanying the application
for admission p ' 't ~ .itist
The words that hereafter, at the beginning of the
second clause, converted by the telegraph into
therefore; = thus materially altering the application
Of the opinion expressed by the resolution We OBJ
serve further, that, introduced by the mover, it
contained the words moe and between the words
chat and hereafter making it read, 'and that
noac and hereafter Territory" &c The object of
the convention in striking out these words is suff-
GENTLY obvious, and limits the expression of opinion
contained therein strictly to the future. 1t is, there
fore, in entire accord with the sentiments and opn
ions of the Presidents message both AZ il relates to
the future action Of Territories in preparing for adj
mission into the Union, and the proper policy to be
pursued upon the admission OF Kansas with the Lee
compton constitution

wages due them from the government and the reply
Of the latter promptly accedng to his request. No
man in Congress is more attentive to the interests
