THE PRESIDENTS mRssAGE

THE PRESIDENTss MESSAGE.
Our last nights dispatches give us With
The brief message Of President Lincoln ap-
proving the Confscation Bill the draught
Of the veto message, the latter submitted
without signature, evidently to guard
against misconstruction Of the nature of
the objections he had made to the bill.
These have q less limit than we we1e led
to infer from the tone Of our dispatches Of
"wednesday night The President sees
nothing startling in the Federal Govern
1nent freeing the slaves confiscated under
This act, and especially approves the en-
ployment Of any persons Of African desr
cent in any manner in which they may be
made useful to the Government against its
enemies. The House was not pleased at
the anomalous instance Of veto submit
led unsigned, and aoEaatad without directly
rejecting its being printed. The bill, as
signed, is amended BY the supplementary
section, elsewhere printed, removing the
constitutional objections of the President
BY limi'ing the forfeiture Of real estate to
The life Of the person attained.

Gamble, who is charged with robbinE the
mail between Wheeling and Harper's Fer
~. Gamble was formerly a baggage mas

The deputy marshal not bringing with
him the requisite authority, he made oath
of the fact of the indictment before United
