Message, read 70 Congress on last Tuesday
Having, q stated yesterday morning de-
clined receiving the message BY telegraph,
We obtained copy Of onsof the Pist'ourg
paper, at half-past seven o'clock yesterday
morning, and, before ten O'clock, had put
the message in type and issued it In the
form of an Extra" Our neighbors OF the
lntelliosaeer were more than two hours be-
hind time, notwithstanding their frequent
boasts of "epterprise and activity" They
had made extra preparations for the speedy
printing of the message, and had telegraph
ed to Pitt,burg for an early copy OF the
Commercial, which was obtained, bat still
they were fully two hours behind when
the message was printed in the Rooster
Office. 1t was their intention, We learn, to
issue an extra, but, being unable to CON-
pete with the REersrrR. their enterprise
was anipped in the bud" Wepresume ou'

yet been able to put it in type. The In

due to the compositors in this sfice for the
prompt and satisfactory manner in which
they did their work.
Concerning the message itself, We have
no room now for comments. Ne will dis
cuss it at another time. From the hasty
reading.ve have given it, We incline te
think that it will prove bitter disappoint'
ment to thoss who have been hoping to fine
