The Presidents Message.

TO the exclusion of our usual vari-
ETY., we give place this week to the
Presidents Message entire. The
message has been looked for with
great anxiety, and we cannot doubt
that every one will read it. It treats
OF and discusses measures Of the
greatest Importance to the Anne rican
people, and that with an ability and
candor rarely equalled and never sur
passed 10y any occupant of the Prcsi.
Dental chair.
The chief interest of the message
will naturally be found by every read
er in that portion which treats of the
relations of slavery. To this the
President has evidently given con.
sidcration at once elaborate and earn
est. The merely incidental manner in
which he refers to the Proclamation of
last September 22d, especially when
taken in connexion with the expansion
he has given to his favorite project
for compensated emancipation" suf-
fciently indicates the direction in
which he looks for bcneficent melior.
alton in the condition of the African
race now held in bondage. 1t is i'm
possible to read what he has written
under this head without feeling re.
spcct for his candor and his patriotic
inspirations, however much the reader
may dissent from the practicability of
the plan which he urges upon the
adoption of Congress and the accep-
lance of the country.
If radical anti-slavcry men do not
like the doctrine of compensated
emancipation, it is certain that the
secesh sympathizers are far less pleas
ed with the idea of the President that
the Proclamation of Emancipation is a
+" fixed fact" with which Congress has
nothing to do.

Hard Times for Printers.

We are having some difficulty in
obtaining a supply Of printing paper.
We have given several different Or
ders to our paper maker, and each
time the answer has come back that
paper has taken another rise, until it
hes now gone up to fabulous prices !!
Nor is this all. The question does not
appear to be so much, what we must
pay for paper, as whether it can be
obtained at any price or not.
We do not intend to stop business.
The Intelligencer will be issued till
the close of the present year, and
then it is possible that we shall delay
the regular issue for two or three
weeks, and improve the opportunity
to look into the paper market and see
what can be done.
In the mean time, those who arc in-
debted to us, whether for newspapers,
job printing, advertising, or goods,
will have an opportunity and are cor
daily invited to make payment. We
have repeatedly called upon some of
these parties, either in person or by
sending them bills, but all to no effect.
Should this call fail, we shall be com
PEELED to 60 to the courts and ask
judgments for those amounts we have
90 hardly earned, and are now so
wrongfully withheld from US. We
are not in the habit Of dunning, very
much, through our columns, and it is
generally understood that We mean
what we say.
The publication of the Intelligencer
will 60 on, and the price will remain
the same-but no papers will be sent
out out that are not paid for. The
business Of newspaper credits is en-
tircly at an end.
For the publication of legal adver-
tisements-sheriff's sales, original no.
ticcs, probate notices, and the like
our price hereafter will be 81 so per
square Of ten lines, for the first inser-
ton. and IS cents per square for each
Of the subsequent insertions-and the
mesey must be paid uhen The publication IS
ordered.
We are compelled to adopt this rule
on account of the greatly increased
cost of printing paper, printing mate
rial. aud every thing that enters into
the cost Of carrying on the printing
business, and the fact that in no case
Can printers purchase on credit.
We shall be glad to retain all our
