IT is understood that the President has
finished the draft of his annual message. 1t
will not be printed in advance of its delivery
to Congress, for the reason that therefore,
such printing has resulted in a premature
disclosure of the contents of several mes
sages to Congress. The only copies made
of it in advance therefore, will be in manu-
script. The document is said not to be
lengthy.

WENDELL PHILLIPS proposes to give
the next ten years Of his life to the redemp-
ton of every man who works with his
hands. This programme of redemption is
somewhat limited, but it will do to start
with. BY and by he will come to sympa-
thize with those who tug and sweat with
their brains, to get less remuneration for
their toll than any other class of workers
extant---at least in Massachusetts.

IT is very easy to pay large debt when
you have the means to pay it, but impos-
sible to pay either a large or small one
when you have not the means. To pay .
Just debt, it is the duty of the State, no
less than of the individual, to turn over the
last dollar of its property, if need be, for
its liquidation. But where debt is con-
csived in sin and brought forth in iniquity,
as is the case with much of the State in-
debtness of the South, the obligation to
pay the last dollar is manifestly not quite
SO binding.

would glut it and cause decline for the

Hostile market is, as reported yes

Prices continue unchanged. The receipts
