THE psEs1pENrs MESSAGE.

The Special correspondent Of the n Y. Tri-
5une, writing from Washington, under date OF
Thursday, March 6, 1867, says:
ssThe Message from the President to-day is
perhaps the most important document ever
addressed to Congress, and one of the most
important in history. Though reserved and
moderate in terms, it distinctly proposes to
s.initiate emancipation. Such a proposition
from the Chief Magistrate must be historic.
From this time forward the great question
passes away from the keeping of spectators
and philanthrepists into that of cabinets and
statesmen. 1t cannot be put aside. One
early effect will be the creation of an emanci-
patton party in the Border States devoted to
the Union, rendering the efforts of Secession
lists there hopeless. 1t is known that several
of the largest slave owners in the Border
States have given in their adhesion to this
project in advance, and are now very anxious
for its adoption. The warning of the Presi-
dent to the Rebels that if the war goes on, sail
the incidents OF war are to be employed, even
if they cause ruin, - will oe understood at once
TO mean that Slavery must cease to exist when
it stands in the way of humanity and the Re-
public. The friends of Freedom here are
much elated, and all of anticipate that the
good cause will be quickened throughout the
county. The Message being received in the
Senate while in the Executive Session, was
not read aloud by the Clerk. 1t was shown
around, and passed from hand to hand. Its
reception by the Senators was electric.
The latest adyices from Paris wholly enti-
tied 10 consideration, state the Keystone Of
the Emperor's policy is the English alliance
and that he will do nothing to weaken this. 1t
is important that this should be borne in mind
by those who hastily think that France may
be detached from England in her relations TO
our dealing with the shareholders rebellion.
But happily all things surely indicate that nei-
ther of these powers is disposed to interfere.
The Presidents Message of to-day makes this
interference absolutely impossible. The Mes
sage OF the President is regarded among the
Foreign Ministers an epoch and calculated
to produce profound impression in Europe.
1t will be the subject OF dispatches from all
the Legations by Saturdays steamer"

THE TUscARORA AND THE NAsHyILLE

The Bafnstable, (Alass.,) Patriot publishes q
letter from the Acting Master of the United
states states steamship Tuscarora, dated Isle OF
wight, Feb, a. The writer says when the Nash
vile went to sea, her rebel flag flying from her
lnla2en, the British frgate Shannon, having nm
steam got underweigh and commenced droppine
down with the tide, keeping between the Tusca.
rora and the Nashville thus, in fact, eopyoving
and protecting the pirate to sea. Seeing. how
ever, that the TuscaroTa did not attempt 10 vio--
late the Admiralty order by getting underweigh
to chase the Nashville, she returred and came Ia
an anchor again near the Tuscarora The writer
says-"You may imagine, but cannot desnr,be
the excitement this affair created on board onr
ship" w.
Courses loud and deep on the British Goysrn-
nent we're freely uttered, and to an extent that
called forth reproof from our Executive officer in
more than one instance, although he, have no
doubt, felt the stab thus inflicted on our cause
more keenly than many Of us have reason TO
believe that the Captain had given orders 10 ain
our chain and chase the Nashville every man
would have been ready, and il the Shannon had
trieu to stop us, they would have fought her as
long as plank Of the Tusoarora was left to fight
upon, But, as it is, the Nashville has escaped
US this time; but am mistaken in our CAPTAIN.
if we ever meet her or the Sumter again. IL thev
escape no matter where they are found. We
have coaled ship to-day, and shall sail in the
morning Destination unknown, but probably
the Mediterranean, have heard TODAY that
there is another American ship of war In the
English channel, if SO, she may meet the Nash
VILE before she leaves this coast"

HOW GEN. LANDER's DIVISION :cELE
BRATED WAsHINGToN's BIRTHDAY.

The Generals Speech 10 hi. Soldiers.
correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial,
writing from Paw paw under date of February
%, says;
While our fellow-citizens at home, in every
town and city, are celebrating this day so kind
~ cherished in the hearts of free and eulight-
ened people, we, too, have commemornted it by
grand review, and thus had a look at General
Lander. His eagle eyes were resplendent with
the hres that CLEANED through them from his
daring, heroic heart, and bis voice resonant with
the intonations of command and impetuous
esrnestnesE. Almost every word Of his brief adj
dresses to the various regiments could be heard
distinctly by three or four thousand men, and
his hearers were struck with his versatility in
sDeaking each address being marked by some
thing new and appropriate to the particular
regiment that he fronted; and had it not been
for al occasional oath that broke from his lips
marring the beauty of his discourse, as a single
badly-drawn feature mars au ezquisiiely drawn
portrait, his speeches would have compared
iavorably with those of the most finished
orators.
In the strongest language he condemned ths
