PRESIDENTS MEsSAGE.-A special message
from the President of the United States, of
which the following is a copy, was sent to the
Senate on Friday, in reply to resolu-
ton recently offered by Mr.. Seward, and
adopted by the S.nate. calling for any cores
Government and that of Spain with reference
to the acquisition of Cuba:
WASHINGTON. Jan. n, 1859.
To the Senate of the United States:
| transmit herewith report from the Score
tary Of State. in answer 10 the resolution of
the Senate of the 18th inst, requesting the
President. ifnOt incompatible With the public
interest, "to communicate to the Senate any
and all correspondence between the Govern
ment of the United States and the Govern
ment of her Catholic Majesty, relating to any
proposition for the purchase Of the Island of
Cuba, which correspondence had not been
furnished to either House of Congress-
From this it appears that no such cOrrespon-
dence has taken place which has not already
been communicated to Congress. In my late
annual message | stated in reference 10 the
purchase of Cuba. that the publicity which
has been given to our former negotiations on
this subject, and the large appropriations
which may be required to effect the purpose.
reader it expedient before making another at
teInpt to renew the negotiation that should
lay the whole subject before Congress- l
still entertain the same opinion, deeming ii
highly important, if not indispensable to the
success of any negotiation which might be
instituted for the purpose, that the measure
should receive the previous sanction of Con-
gress. JAMES BUCHANAN.

RIDDLEBERGER's, l was so seriously indis-
posed that he thought ii best to procure
hack, in which we drove to the st. Cloud, at
which hotel the Colonel had rooms. He is Of
the opinion that was affected with severe
attack of what the physicians technically
call Transient Wabblekneed Fever; aud if
such was the case that mine was the severest
type of that fearful disease. Such is also my
own opinion. You are doubtless aware that
this fever yields powerful influence over the.
mental faculties-especially the memory. 1t
certainly did. over mine; for reached the
Coleneis bedroom with the recollection ofbut
single incident of our transit from the street
That incident was simply the meeting of u
young lady in the hall. who struck me as
being singularly beautiful. And will relate
here, as a remarkable phenomenon of the
disease with which was prostrated, that l
arose from my bed, soon after the Colonel
left me, and wrote poem to the young lady
to whom 1 have referred, which / did with a
bit of charcoal on the white washed wall of
the room. there being neither pen nor paper
at hand, nor anything like bell-pun dis
cernable. / can not tell what wrote. as l
Immediately fell into a light slumber on lying
down a second time. and did not awake until
the gong announced supper, when, feeling
moderately WELL with the exception of
headache, and entirely free from fever, at
once walked down town. l Will be greatly
obliged to you if you will send your devil up
to the st. Cloud, room No. $40, and direct
him to transcribe the poem, rerbatim it
appears on the wall, and then let the printer
insert it here.
This is to certify that the following is a
correct and true copy of the poem written in
charcoal on the wall of room No. BAG, St.

Job not a Circumstance

The Hillsdale' (Michigan) Democrat, tells
very deep story on the authority of a
clergyman and an acquaintance. who re-
sides in Monroe City. The subject of this
remarkable relation is an invalid, whose
sutferings throw that of Job entirely in the
shade. The clergyman's statement is as
follows:
a man now living in the above city
(Monroe) was taken i'll with rheumatism
eight years ago, and so formidable was the
attack that in two years afterward he be-
came entirely helpless, and has been com
PEELED to lay on his back, in which condi-
tion he has lain six years, without the pos
sibility Of laying in any other position
His lower extremities have become drawn
up. and are entirely rigid. His arms and
hands are in the same painful and elpless
condition. lie cannot be moved without
the most excrutiating pains. His finger
and toe nails are all rotted off, and he is
emaciated to almost skeleton. lie pos
sesses his mental faculties, converses freely
with those who visit him, has a good ap
petite, and can slightly turn his head. His
wife, who is said to be an amiabe aad at
tentive woman, has made his shirts suta,
bic to his condition. They have fastened
pulleys into the ceiling of the room, SO
that they can, by means of ropes, &c. ele-
vate him to make his bed and change linen.
He experiences no pain when not disturb
ed by moving his person. They have re-
Gently removed him to the front room, so
that he can see people passing by the
house which gives him much pleasure.
This extraordinary case is exciting much
commsera' ion among the community, and
our informer has wondered why the case
has not been published before. This in
valid owns house and lot in the city of
Monroe, and, through the industry and pru
dence of his amiab!e wife they get their
living.
