The only portion of the Presidents Message
which seems To give general satisfaction, is tat
which relates to the Tariff But the general sec,.
Jog is that even for that portion the President
deserves little credit, as some modlhcstion Of the
Tariff is absolutely necessary to save the Admins
tration from bankruptcy.
Nr. Deyart's Protection motion ia the House
seems to be merely whimsical attempt to fore
stall the President. The vote however. WAS some.
what significant, in that it shows Il Protection
majority in the House There ls undoubtedly
majority ready to admit the necessity OF general
augmentation of the Tariff, but it is doubtful
whether majority can be got TO agree on any PG
ticular plan. AL that Democrats wish Is to he'e
the Administration ont of It, pecuniary difficulty,
and TO regain Pennsylvania.

happy mspncr His comparison tf the PresIdeu!

merIiment.

motion Will probably be made to add as m amend.
ment TO it an enabling act for Kanas similar to ,hs.
adopted for Minnesota, providing for the submission
OF the Constitution to the people.
Mr. MOrr's bill for the suppression Of polygauy
in Utah aud other Territories, will be- vigorously
pressed early in the session.
Lieut.. Mowry, who arrived yesterday, reports
that emigrauts are pouring rapidly into Arizona.
Nathan Sargent Of this ci'y has issued secret
circulars calling the friends of Crttenden to meet
in private conyocation here on the 18th inst, 10
devise means to bring him forward as candidate
for the Presidency.
There is project maturing here for changing
the route Of the Salt Lake mail to line $50 miles
further south, 20 as TO run through the center Of
Kansas into the Utah settle nents south OF Sat
Lake City. The result Will be the abandonment
Of Fort Laramie and the diversion south ward Of
the whole overland emigration to Caforni,. Such
a road would pass near Pixies Peak Diggings.
