The message which will be found in our col-

.- ...~.
THE Mi-:ss.i an or the Presidentis now before
our readers. It was looked for with very little
interest. and its reading does not appear to dis-
turbine general indifference ofthe public mind.
Its topics are few, and the tone and spirit in
which they are presented, are as unexceptiona-
ble, perhaps, as any thing front Ill8'SOUfCe., un-
der existing circumstances. could well be ex.
pected. lt induces the opinion, that Mr. Tyler
has at length found out his real position. Tired
with an offensive war upon the party which
eli‘Cle(l,ltim&latigl1l IO expect nothing but to be
turned to a cat’s-paw utility by the locus, he has
settled down like ‘a jug upon its own narrow
bottom. The Message is decidedly the best
evidence ofreturuing sanity of any act of the
man's Presidential existence. Bravo! _
The treaty with Great Britain forms one or
the two leading topics ofthe document, and after
the repeated reiterations ofM r. Webster, is dwelt
upon with considerable fullness. Though Mr.
Webster, as he says, did the btisiness pretty
iniichwithoiut the. knowledge or assistance of the
President, the Message does not allude to him
or his agency. Our other foreign relations are
represented as qtiite auspicious, even Mexico is
willing to treat with us, so that there is no par-
ticular danger from that quarter.
“The lialaiice in the Treasury on the first of Janu-
ary. 1842, (exclusive of the ainotint deposited with
the States. Trtist Funds and Indemiiities) was $230,
483 68. The receipts into the Treasury during the
three first qttarters of the present year, front all
sources, ainoniit to $26,616,593 78 ; ofwliicli more
than fourteen millions were received from customs,
and abottt one million front tlze public lands, The
receipts for the fourth quarter are estimated at near-
ly eight millions ; of which four millions are expect-
ed from customs, and three millions and a half front
Loans and Treasury Notes. The expenditures ol'
the first three quarters of the present year exceed
twenty six mil|ions,and those estimated for the fourth
quarter amount to about eight millions; and it is
anticipated there will be a deficiency ofhalfa inillimi
oti the 1st of January next—buttliat the amount of
outstanding warrants(estimated at $800,000) will
leave an actual balance of about $224,000 in the
Treasury. Among the expenditures ofthe ycar,are
tiiore than eight millions for the pttblic debt,aud$600,
000 on accotiiit ofthe distribution to the States of
the proceeds of sales of the public lands.”

doubt cause the reader to rise from the perusal
ofthe message with a very salu'ary buuoyancy

We cannot but lhitik that Mr. Tyler and Dr.
Cleveland have been setting upon the samecgg!

Though we have but little objection to giving
General Jackson $1.000 to refund the line he was
subjected to. we do most earnestly object to its
being given to him in any other way than that
proposed by the Whigs of the last session of"

The article in the Commcrcitl, Mr. Ga-
zt-ttt-, was written in October. So we hear.
The Bridgeport papers didri’t mislead you, at
all events the general opinion here is, that
the road is finished. On Friday last more
than 300 passengers are said to have passed
over the entire l‘t)Ul.=‘. The Crown on Sat-
urday brought I20 passengers for Albany,"-
and yesterday the Nimrod came up with 75.
“lo have of late seen lots of persons who
said they had just come froiti Albany by rail-
road. We dou’t_ wish to be too positive in
the matter, but looking at all these circum-
stances we guess, that the Road is really
completed, and that it is doing a great busi-
iiess.—-Bridgeport Standard.
Well, now, we suppose there is no use of
being skeptical any longer. Such clouds of
witnesses must settle the matter_ beyond all
doubt. Congratulate you, brother’_Pentingill,
that you have lived to see this day !
Ii~t'ri:iu«:s'i'i.\o.—'I‘lte Globe. upon admitting
a plea for Tylerism, from a correspondent. turns
upon those for whose admission he is suing, and
compares Capt. Tyler to an uufaitliful husband
who has long been false to his wife (locofocoism)
and now comes back professing penitence, but
bringing several of his vilest paramours (i.e.
Webster, Spencer & Co.) with him. The
Globe remarks that the “respectability” of the
family must suffer from these new inmates, and
concludes:
"In our opinion, the Democracy can man-
age its affairs very well without the aid of
the renouncing coons, who have quarreled
with. and been driven away from their fra-
ternity. If they now get shelter from those
to whom they have before done all the mis-
chief in their power. they must be content
with the hospitality the house may afford to
such guests, and not expect that its keeping
will be entrusted to them.”
