THE PREsIpRNT,s MESSAGE.

This document impresseS the reader most
Yayorsbly by the exceeding clearness and sue
einctpess with which the operations Of Gov
eminent fer the year are set forth and its future
policy developed.
So comractly are the leading facts stated,
indeed, that no resume could well be made
ordensing them without making important
omissions.
To those who expected that Mr.. Lincoln
would unfold some patent plan for attaining
peace short CT crushing the military power Of
the Confsderacy, the message Will prove dis
appointment.
But the logic OF President Lincoln upon this
point is so irresistible that those who expected
the President to somehow enunciate or declare
"a peace" must see that the disappointment Is
OF their own making. 1t is, as Mr.. Lincoln so
concIUsively shows, g an issue viii sh can only
be tried by war ard decided by victory" At
the same time he reiterates that the southern
people can at any moment have peace, simply
by laying down their arms and submitting to
to the national authority under the Oonstitu-
ton.
The declaration by the President that he will
take no step backward in regard to his emanci-
patton policy, is supported by adequate rea.
SONS
The exposition of facts showing that we are
hot exhausted, nor In progress OF exhaustion,
either in men or physical resources, by the
war; is interesting and satisfactory, and can.
not but have good effect in disabusing the
MINDS of those VINO have imagined that this
great nation was already at the end Of its re-
sources by reason OF a war which, however
colossal in character, has been so brief in COM
parison with the protracted struggles of other
nations il fighting for their birthrights.
The message, though unpretending and bust
ness-Hke in character, will take rank as among
our best State papers.

RICHMOND DATES OF MONDAY.

Richmond papers OF Monday, 5th inst, are
in town, but contain no news OF importance
They either know nothing or will say nothing
OF the movements Of Sherman later than al
ready received by us from Savannah papers.
They assume editorially, however, that Sher-
man has not yet reached Millen, Ga and con.
sequently we have no confirmation Of the re-
port that our cavalry were within six miles OF
Savannah.
1t is encouraging news for US, however, that
the rebels have no successes to boast over; and
consequently we may be sure that Sherman
is progressing satisfactorily in the prosecution
OF his plan OF campaign, wherever that may
lead him.

THE SENATE NAVAL CoMMITTEE.-The &C.
casion of the Republican party Senatorial eau
Gus held today is understood to have been
the absolute necessity, in the current exigen-
cies ofpublic affairs, OF harmonizing the chair
manship of their naval affairs committee with
the Navy Department, the constant disagree.
ments between that department and the late
chairman having as plainly as grievously
injured the public interests. No decision was
arrived at to-day in the caucus, but 1t is said
TO have been evident that the Senators present
evlnced the fixed purpose Of putting a stop to
the injurious state Of things in this connection
that existed throughout the last session.
