phatic in announcing his position on any ques-

for the purpose Of protecting slave property or
other purpose whatever. At Freeport, he as
serted the right of the Territorial Legislature to
exclude slavery to be perfect and compete
under the Kansas Nebraska bill" and declared
that hp had "argued the Kansas Nebraska bill
on that principle" throughout the State OF Hi

ther in case Territorial Legislature should at
tempt to exercise the power OF excluding slavery,
he would advocate al interference BY Congress,
for the purpose Of protecting the institution,

etous designs of the Slave Power
are nowhere alluded to in the Mes
sage. These provocations are known
/ 10 the world, however, WHICH sees in
all an unmitigated, persevering pros.
titution of all the National power and
patronage for the extension of Slavery
in q Southern direction.
The soul sickcns in view of the
extent and turpitude of these schemes
and in contemplation of the fact that
the mind and heart of the Nation are
so little affected by them. Our only
hope is in Him who moulds all events
according to His sovreign will.
In relation to National finances,
the President gives the denial direct
TO those papers and speakers who so
recently argued that our hard times
were all the result of the small alter
atoms made by the Tariff of 1857. He
says truly, "7Ae Tariff Of 1857 hai no
agency in that resuh." His idea that
bank expansion is the CAUSE of all, is
only getting the cart before the horse:
the pushing Of lower-priced goods on
our markets, ,thro' the free warehouses
which store the fabrics of foreign ma
nufacturers to the disadvantage of our
own, stimulated all that expulsion
VIC bought far too much-the balance
Of trade turned heavily against us
and the crash, so long predicted, was
awfully severe at last. A rccommcn-
dation of The old Wing doctrine of
specific duties, is the only favorable
indication on this topic. We have no
belief that the Slave Power will per-
nit any relief for the antagonist inte-
rest Of Free Labor, which must work
a complete change of Administration
before the Protective policy can be
reinstatcd.
The Treasury is by no means in M
encouraging condition. The payment
Of the Loans-:he Wars, past or pre-
meditated-and the other schemes Of
plunder devised by the ruling power,
would largely swell our indcbtedness.
Raising the rates of postage, will
not be popular. Better abolish the
franking privilege, e,extravagaut allow
ances, and unnecessary service.
On the question of re-opening the
Foreign slave-trade, Mr.. Buchanan, in
his proper treatment of the "Echos'
captives, evidently sides withVirginia
and those other States in which slave
breeding is the most profitable bust
ness. These oppose the bringing in Of
slaves direct from Africa, because it
would reduce the market value of all
their own human cattle.
The recommendations in favor Of
Arizonia, Utah, and the District Of
Columbia, and for the Pacific Rail
road, (for which it is well understood
he favors Southern route) complete
his home suggestions-and EVERY ONE
FOR THE SLAVERY INTER
EST. The whole scope and design
and spirit of the Message is for the
one sectional power; nothing dis
tinctly National" nothing for the
North! nothing for the East moth
ing for the mighty West, except as
linked with some Pro-Slavery scheme!
south, and there is his 1ove-there
must all our legislation, all our mon
ey, be directed!

GOOD AND BAD.-A very important
election for U. S. Senator, in South Caro-
Ina, has resulted ir the defeat of the
rampant nulliGcrs, Kei;t & Co., and the
election of Col. james Chesnu,, who is
called conservative on the Slavery
question. Gov. Hammond gave him his
influence. This rebuke to sectioualism ia
the hot bed of Nu!liiicationism, proves
that the sagacious men Of the South see
that they are pursuing their game too for,
and are endangering the very existence Of
their idol. This is good sign.
John Le,cher; of the Hunter and Bu-
chanan party, received the Democratic

This is defeat of the Wise and Douglas
