We publish IN full this morning President

time In which It Is delivered, and Of the sub
iscss Of which It must necessarily treat
The Message viii be read with intense in
tsrest ~shroughOut the country, not from any
doubt as to Its general position, but to see
specifically What IS proposed to be DONE in
order best . meet The responsibilities Of the
hOur. ne Message iEjustsuch document
Is re should have expected from its author
-clsRr, fOrcible. and right to The point
Without useless DISQUALIFICATION, it goes
directly into the merits Of the great case
that Is nov on trial By the American people,
before the whole world.
There Is vlst amount Of information
contained in this Message, and information
which viii entirely clear up all doubts
which may have besa felt IS to the Admin
istrslon's policy regarding the evacuation oil
Fort sumtsr. President Lincoln first speaks
Of the condition of the country at the neon
Ing Of the present Administration, and 0 fth'
policy to exhaust all psaeOble measure
before employing foree, which was put fortt
in the Inaugural.
Upoa the day after the Presidents Iusngr'
ration, the real condition Of Fort Sumter WI
laid before him In alettsr from Maj. Ander
con, showing that relnforcements could no
be thrown into the Fort in time for relic
from starvation. This view was reluctant!
ooncurred in at head quarters but 1t va
hoped that Fort Pickens might be reinforce'
before Fort Sumter must be abandoned, an
thus the desire Of the Administration b
shown to the people. Owing to the refuse
Of the commanding officer of the Sabine, o.
Fort Pickens to obey the orders to land thu
troops, this plan was frustrated.
An attempt was then made to proviSio
the Fort Gov. Pickens having been nOtife
Of the design. The responsibility of th
attack thus rested upon the State authouiis
Of South Carolina. The point where til
contest should begin, had come the secedel
being the aggressOrs who forced the issu
Of blood upon the country. No choice va
left but to call out the power of the Govern
menr.

The State of Virginia has chosen to give a
hsrbor to tie insurreetiOnary government,
and has made herself the battle ground the
government has therefore no choice but to
deal with the rebellion where 1t finds it, and
to crush 1t out upon whatever soil it may
be established.
The President recommends Congress to
pass e bill for calling 100000 men into tie
asld, and providing $4OO, OOH, 900 for neces-
sary expenses. This seems a large sum, but
the ezigencies Of the times require it and it
VIII be heartily ceneurred in.
The doctrine of States Rights is most ad-
mirably and couclusivel7 handled In the Mes
sage
The lateness Of the hour at which the
Message came to hand precludes any further
eommant or abstract. The document can
not well be abridged; let every one Of our

will be in his possession within a few days,
MIR. Ricke, tho City Clerk, having nearly
completed the work Of making them out.

purposes, forty cents; for special purposes,
twenty-five CENTS special, ten; School, ten,
and Bridge, ten cents.
ARMS RECBIvBD.-0ne thousand six hun.
bred and eighty stand of muskets have
crossed the river at this place, for various
points in the interior aud northern border of
Kentucky. Their arrival was not noticed up
to this time by request of the United States
authorities. Over three hundred of these
muskets, each with ten ball and buek-shot
cartridges, directed to Colonel John W. Fin.
nell, were received by him, and distributed
among the Citizens Guard. A large num-
Der of arms have also been received and dis.
tributed among the Kentucky Grays, Ken
lucky Royers, and, we understand, also the
Homo Guard and other military ~orpaniza-
tons. The whole number crossing the river
at this and other points will probably make
up the five thousand entioned in our tele.
graphic dispatches of yesterday.
We hear some dissatisfaction expressed by
the unconditional Union men in regard to
their distribution, but, we presume, all will
be required to take the oath to support the
Constitution before arms are received.

The Home Euards-The Hurried Rally for
Homes and Eirosides.

To the Editors Of he Daily Press:
The military status in and about Cincin-
natl is wonderfully changed since Monday,
April l6, wher I raised the American flag at
14l Main.street, and organized the "Home
Guard" of Cincinnati. On the first day |
had a regiment parading the streets.
The display made by handsomely. uni
formed, well. drilled Home Guard Companies
at the reception of Colonel Anderson, and
the readiness Of drilled companies in each
ward Of the city, attest the practical efficiency
Of the movement thus hurriedly made to
awaken a military spirit in our city, a patri-
otto fidelity to our Government and a prepar-
alton to defend our homes and fresides.
J. tender my cordial thanks toall the brave
and active spirits who entered so cordially
into the organization of companies by
wards.
l publicly acknowledge favors, freely Of
fered, on the first days Of the movement,
viz; To Hickey & Carroll, and Trustees Of
McMicken Fund, office and drill-room Car
son & McHenry, George Shillito, lamps and
candles; Gas Company, gas light; Hume &
Co, chairs; Times Office, flags and decora-
tons; Gibson House, Oh. Wolff & Co, mus
lin for banners; @. Il. Forristall, painting (;
Charles Davenport, telegraphing. General
A. Z. Jones is deserving of special mention
for his active service in organizing the Home
Guard Companies into the "Reserve Militia
His public spirit is the more manifest as he
is doing his duty on the peace establishment
without pay or rstions.
