The PRESIDENTS Message.

We give elsewhere full telegraphic
abstract of President Johnson's annual
message to congress. The message en-
tire la. come to hand. but it is too lon4
and unimportant for these columns MF'
johnson is more temperate and guarded
in his expressions in this paper than III
Some of lis former productions, although
in this. his mulish obstinacy and I'M
bounded egotsm are prominent. He
walks boldly into the congressional plan
of reconstruction, evidently interpreting
the fall elections as an endorsement of
his. and q condemnation of the congress
sional policy. His argument against i'm
partial suffrage is bitter and characters
tie, and reminds the reader of one OF
Andrew Johnson's sayings before he
went over TO the rebels, to wit: "Wher
YOU hear a man prating about the con-
stitutlon, set him down as a traitor"
The Tribune saws the presidents mes
sage Is q strange compound of statesman
ship and passion. His views on recon
struction are full Of anger and prejudice
but ms views on finance are patriotic
and wise. 1t says the other parts of the
message should receive patient cons;dera-
ton as they contain much that the ration
will Generally approve.
The Boston Journal says: 1t is mark
ed by all the peculiar characteristics Of
its author, although it is somewhat more
temperate and dianitiel in tone than most
Of his previous efforts. On the recon-
,tructIon question, the discussion of
which occupies nearly one-half of tho
message, the president rcitcrates his well
known views, without the least regard to
the Instructions of experience, or, we
had almost said, the facts Of history Ii
there had been no gigantic rebellion in
this country. but only an "unplcasant-
ne>-" OF some Kind or other; if there had
been no revolution in the entire relations.

lNPEtCIIMENT-No progress has been
made with the report on Impeachment,
and both sides express their confidence
in their ultimate triumph. ''Pcrley''
telegraphs 10 the Boston Journal as fol-
lows:
The canvass of the impeacllers and
antl-lmpeac!ers goes on at a lively rate
both sides claiming the majority of
the House. The republicans who are
against Impeachment declare themselves
not only srtain OF defeating, but they
say that they will have majority Of
their own side of the House. with all the
Democratic votes TO spare. The House,
when full, contains one hundred and four
Republicans and fitty-one Democrats.
and the anti-impeachers claim eighty
Republicans who are ready at the proper
time to vote in favor of laying the whole
subject on the table
The Democrats are endeavoring to dis
prove much of the evidence taken bv the
impeachment committee, and among 9TH
er things they profess to be able to prove
that Mrs. Cobb was introduced to Presi-
dent johnson by two western Republican
Senators. No one of any party believes
the evidence of Lafayette c. Baker and
the other detectives, which was evidently
fabricated for the occasion.

for other negative votes 1t railroads

cents TO ninety cents per hundred pounds

TO Montpelier for considerably less than

the people along the line of the road are
obliged TO pay these exorbitant rates, in
order that the people 4 thousand miles

Legislature declines TO Interfere, il Is

our people at the mercy of these corpora
tions, than was given in the debate on
| this bill
Ii appeared before the committee on
railroads in the hearin. on this bill
Mr.. Merrill. the superintendent of the
Vermont Central road, tesiiiying to the
fact.-that the actual cost of transport
Ing a ton of first class freight, mile,
was two cents. The Vermont Central
charges eighteen dollars ton from Mont
pelier TO Boston, 206 miles At two cts.
per ton, per mile, it actually costs the
roads four dollars AMI twelve cents for
transporting the freight, leaving mar
gin of thirteen dollars and lightweight
cents as The profits of the trip. OF this
profit the Vermont Central gets about
one-third in other words it costs the
Central, to transport the ton of freight
81 miles. TO White River Junction, one
dollar and four cents, and it receives
about six dollars for the service. This
Is about five hundred per cent profit.
The Central charges the merchants and
manufacturers in the vicinity OF Mont

It's superintendent admits that this is five
times what it costs the road TO carry the
freight.
