THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
What the President Will and VIII Not
Recommend.

Recommend.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.
The message of the President is completed
and in type, and every copy is in safe custody.
There was sent yesterday to some of the news
papers East and West what purports to be an
extended abstract of this message. This pre-
tended report is evidently the result of the inn
agination. Among other things it represents
that the President will recommend to Con-
gresS the gradual retirement of the greenbackS
from circulation; and that he will make sew
eral other important financial recommended
tons. The statement is wholly untrue. There
is the authority of person who has read the
message for saying that the President not only
does not recommend the retirement of the
greenbacks, bnt that he earnestly advises Con
gress that no legislation of any kind whatever
be undertaken with respect to the finances
Whatever the Presidents individual opinion
on abstract questions of finance may be, it is
now his Judgment that there should be no at
tempts at financial legislation at this session of
Congress- that resumption should be allowed
to proceed without any obstruction from legs-
lation. and that the returned prosperity should
not be interfered with by any efforts at tlnan-
cial legislation, however well intended. The
President recommends an absolute status quo
as TO all financial propositions. This ought to
settle the reports that Secretary Sherman will
propose the gradual retirement of the green
backs. 1t is not probable that Secretary Sher-
mans report will differ from the Recommended
tons of the President as to financial legisla-
ton. If Secretary Sherman at one time con-
sidered the propriety OF recommending the re-
tirement of greenbacks, that time has now
passed and he will not advise Congress to do
anything which would reopen the financial
agitation, or tend to disturb the material pros
perity of the country. The distinguishing
characteristic Of the Presidents message
doubtless is the position winch 1t taxes on
finances, namely that there shall he no
CHANCE.

Fraud Taking the Place of Shot Guns.

New YoRK, Nov. pa Cincinnati dispatch
to the Times says trustworthy information re-
ceived there from Mississippi states that the
colored exodus is at an end for the present.
The negroes say that the demeanor of the
whites toward them has wholly changed, and
that while the present state of things lasts they
have no desire to leave. Almost every black
man on the west side of the river, who staid
at home, has cotton enough to pay all his debts
and have good sum of money left. In the
best localities they count on a bale and quar-
ter per acre, which is about equal to 40 bushels
of wheat per acre in the North. In many
localities, cotton-pckers now get from rs cents
to 81 per 106, and good hands can average $50
pounds, while some " omen can pick 400. In
many instances man and wife earn IS or Sc
a day. The crop is so large that this busy
season will last till Christmas, and planters
are now bidding against each for laborers.
A number of colored politicians and leaders
who were talked with agree that there is a vast
improvement in the Mississippi Valley; that
buli-dozing has stopped, and that until it is re-
sumed there will be no more emigration The
whites, they say now depend upon ballot
stuffing and political tricks to accomplish their
objects, and they find these methods more
effective and less expensive than shot-guns.

The Bee Sign.

Bee keepers and farmers who have observed
the motions of the little industrious insects,
predict a mild winter. They say that the bees
are working harder than ever-lnore so than
they did in the summer while sucking the
sweets of the white clover. They have only
just commenced killing off the drones, which
is said to be a sure sign of mild winter, as
they usually kill them off on the first approach
of cold weather. People who have studied the
habits of the bee say they never make a mis-
take. If such be the case, the winter will
surely be mild one.
