The Presidents MESSAGE President Lincoln's
message was sent 10 Congress on the 9th inst, 1t is
q remarkably unimpassODej document. Our For
sIgn Relations are satisfactory. Our naval force on
the Lakes IS to be increased. The public deb, on the
first Of July was 81, T49, $50 Asa. Our war feet is
composed of GIL vessels, carrying 4,6lO guns and
manned by 81 900 men. The blockai ng fleet has
captured S24 vessels during the pas, year, and l 800.
including 261 steamers, since the war began. The
Post Office Department Is now nearly self sustaining.
Mr.. Lincoln notices flyorabiy the Atlantic and Rus
sian Geographic projects. a. also thar of the Pacific
railroad The adoption Of "a free constitution by sew
er.l Slave States is favoratly commented on. and he
recommends TO Congress the passing of a resolution
Of amendment TO the Constitution forever prohibiting
slavery within the bounds OF the nation. He mem
;ious the present expedition by Sherman as a mark
Of the progress which the war has made. He declares
the issue between the rebel president and US to be
distinct, simple and infiexible." III is an issue
which can only be tried by war and decided by VIC
tory" de still ofers to the people of the South,
however, q general amnesty upon their laying down
their arms. The message thus closes:
In presenting the Abandonment Of armed resist
ance TO the National authorities on the part Of the
insurgents as the only Indispensable condition 10 end
ing the war on the part of the Government I retract
nothing heretofore said as to slavery. | repeat the
declaration made n year ago, that while | remain in
my present position l shall not attempt to retract
or modify the Emancipation Proclamation. nor shall
return TO slavery any person who is free by the terms
of that proclamation or BY any IF the acts OF Con-
gress. If the people should, by whatever mode or
means, make IL my executive duty to re-enslave such
persons, another, and not |, must be their instru-
ment TO perform il. In stating (. single condition of
peace | mean simply 10 say that the war Will cease
on the part of the Government whenever it shall have
ceased on the part Of those who began - pap.

REHABILITATION.
S496,2S6 g.
s51i,57i -

The present bill. it will be observed, exceeds
by S7S,000 the total Of the previous session.
That is quite moderate. and probably within the
regular income but even should it exceed the
receipts, the credit of the government is good for
any amount. Among the new and large items
will be observed $50 600 for Queen Emma and
Gov. Kekuanaoa $50 900 at the disposal of the
Board Of Health, which sum is certainly suff-
Gent to take care of every ease of Chinese lepro-
sy in the kingdom $4,000 for establishing a
government newspaper; Sl2,O 600 for an Insane
Asylum, and $4,000 to complete the Royal
Tomb in Nuuanu.
We shall resume, in our next issue, the publ
cation of the laws passed at the late session of
the Legislature, and continue them till COM
pleted. One or two are quite lengthy, but all
will be published in full.

An Off cial notice was received Yesterday
afternoon from the Secretary of War, announc.
ing that the route TO Illinois Of the funeral cor.
tGge of President Lincoln had been changed, SO
that it would pass through Baltimore, Phila.
delphia, Pittsburgh, and thence westward
instead Of coming around by this city
Albany and Buffalo. But this announcement has
been withdrawn, and the original arrangement,
is to DO adhered to. However much we may
all desire to pay honor to that sacred dust, we
cannot help thinking that the second arrange.
ment was the wiser, and that it would
have been more considerable to that
fearfully stricken band Of mourners TO have
permitted Them to have gone by the shortest
and quickest route with their precious dead to
the haven of rest and quiet they so much need.
They have, however, we presume, consented to
Iut aside their own wishes in deieronce to those
Of the public al large.
