Presidents Message.

We print in this issue so much of the
Message as treats upon the Slavery question
and Secession. What Mr.. BUCHANAN has to-
say on the subject Of Secession, is perhaps
better than could have been expected from
him, considering his well-known Southern
affiliations. While he denies the right Of
Secession, he speaks Of the inexpediency, if
notimpossibility of coercion, and endeayors to
shift the entire responsibility Of settling the
matter upon the shoulders Of the incoming
administration. On the Slavery question he
INDUCES in many statements both false and
uncaled for. He misrepresents the feelings and
wishes of the North, in language SO palpably
absurd and prepostcrous, that every school
boy will appreciate the spirit in which It was
pcnned In the first paragraph se the dccu-

CoNFLAGRAT1oN.-LastM Monday night the
Depot of the Illinois Central r. r., at Dun
leith, was totally destroyed by fire, together
with baggage room and freight warehouse
opposite. All the freight and baggage were
saved The origin OF the fire is unknown
The buildings originally cost $4,000, but
were erected when building material was al
most double what it is now, and the build
ings can likely be replaced for about half Of
the above amount. They were fully insured
in London Company.

ment we find the following libel on the North :
"The long continued and Incorporate interference OF
the Northern people with the question Of Slavery in the
Southern States has at length produced its natural effects
| "A statement which Mr.. BUCHANAN knows
to be as false as it is malicious. And so we
might go on, and pick out a score Of similar
untruths; but our readers will discover them
without any of our help.
He advocates the purchase of Cubs, and
for the selfevident purpose of strengthening
the slave power, and enabling the South to
preserve its ascendancy in Congress. He
also devotes considerable space in attempting
to justify the "Lecompton Swindle." The
President states that our relations with all
foreign countries are satisfactory, with the
exception of Mexico.
That part Of the message which we omit,
is taken up with our foreign relations, finan-
ccs, etc. The President suggests the propri-
ETY. of the several States electing their Con-
grcssmen on the same day, the same as in
the election Of President, and we are not sure
but that this would be an improvement upon
the present plan. The concluding portion of
the message is on the subject of Tariff, and
here, we think, the 0. IF. is right. He
suggests such modification of the present
tariff as will secure an increase in our reve-
nucs. He says:
' From long observation and experience am convinced
that specific duties necessary, both to protect the
and to to manufacturing interests that
amount of incidental encouragement which unavoidably
results from a revenue tariff" ff aa
Taken as whole, there is not near enough
of the good to offset the bad; but we have
the consolation that in all probability JAMES

of Virginia, has written letter on the sub
ject of secession, which is said to be an ex-

He says the position of South Carolina is a
bold, plain, daring, flatfooted rebellion
against, and treason to the rest of the States
He thinks the only question involved in the
Carolina imbroglio is whether it is worth
while to keep her in the Union. lie believes
the federal laws should be enforced in South
Carolina, notwithstanding an ordinance of
secession, and is bitter on the secession party
It will soon be published. E

The BuRcu CAsE.-This important case in
which Mr.. Burcu, prominent banker Of
Chicago, sued for divorce from his wife, a
niece of ERAsTus CORNING, Of Albany, for al

the high standing of the parties great deal
of interest conferred in the trial. The case
was tried at Napierville, ILL.,, and after SEES
sion Of nineteen days, the jury found ver-
dict of not guilty last Monday. 1t is our
opinion that old BuRcH is very great villain.
