The President, after expressing gratitude | to the Almighty for the many blessing j which have been extended to this countryt ! throughout the past year refers to recent i bloody occurrence, which took place at! Ilarper'a Ferrj*. These evils, though bad j and cruel in themselves, derive Ili.-ii* I importance from apprehension, and are but j F)inptoms of that apparently incurable j disease in tho public mind which may | break-out in stiM more dangerous outrages, j .81x1 terminate ih an open war by the North j to abolish slavery in the Southern poitioii i of our Union. While tho President him j self entertained no such apprehensions, tliey ought to aflord a foh-mn warning to us all, to beware of the insidious approach of t>uch dangers. Tlie l'rcMdent implores liis fellow countrymen of the North and the South to culti vate their ancient feelings towards each j other, und strive to aliay the influence of; t e demon spirit of bi-clionsii hatred and strife now alive in the. land. lie says .this advice proceeds fioni the heart of an old public functionary wliose service coin nitficed in the last generation, nnd with tlie wise conservative statesmen of that day. lie iudujfres in no gloomy forehoil litpt ot ti e luuiro, and thinks Hint tl-e llwrper's Ferry aft'air will bo - lie means of alluying llie exiiiliug excitement and prevent* 'ing farther outbrenks. He concratuJatC6 Congress on the finnl settlement, by the Supremo Court, of the question of slavery ift'the Territories. The right lias been'estabHthcd that every citizen can take bis property, of every kind, in eluding rinve#, into hII tbe TerritorieB belonging equally-to the whole of the Con*' federacv, and^ia^e it protected there under tlid Pe/foriHConRtiriitinn. "N&ifVmr Bora Territorial Legislature, nor any liuha?any authority to annul or bttpqur this vested right. Thus h?s the atoiiYA nf- n/T^rwlAro i\%*% Uin>r.w._ ?%V?

Our rclalions with France and Russia, uid with all the continental governments of Europe, Spain perhaps excepted, contiuue j no>t friendly. The President recommends that an np- | iropriation ho made to meet the demands j if the Amiisted claimants. The President's opinion in favor of the j tcquisiiion of Cuba, by the United States' i)y a fair and honorable, purebaso remains irichnnged. lie, therefore, agiiin invites lift serious ;illent ion of In this l mpnrtnnt subject. lie had good reasons, unlil reccntlv, to relieve thai Ijo would be able to announce hat our difficulties with Great Britain, >rowing out of lite Clayton-Bulwer treaty, ,vould li? been finally adjusted, in a manler alike honorable and satisfactory to both . ouniries. from causes, however, which J real Britain bail not anticipated, site has not yet completed her treaty arrangement with Honduras and Nicaragua, in pursuance of the understanding between tbo' two Governments. It is, nevertheless, confiilently expected that tbe^o pending negotiations will be soon accomplished. In relation to San Juan, the Preside t enwruuus no aouLi 01 lue vaiumy 01 our title. lie is !i:?ppy to state that the negotiations which were left to Gen Scott's* discretion could not have been placed in hi-ttfcr linnd*. nnrl lip. siir*f>r>f>s?fiillo .irenm. plished the purposes of his mission. There is no longer any reason to apprehend a collision bet wen the respective forces during the pending negotiations. He regrets that Mexican affairs are unimproved. lie speaks od the subject at length and states that outrages of the worst descrip tion Lave been committed on the persons ami property of citizens of the United Slates. There is scarcely any form of injury which has not been suffered bv our iiizt-ns tin-re daring the pa*<t few years. We have b?ren nominally at peace with Mexico, but so far as our interests, our commerce, or citizens, there iu any private capacity, is concerned , we might as well have been eogaged in open war. In August last, Mr. McLane. the Minister of the United States to Mexico, fccnt aconiinurriratioii, in which ho expressed tlie hope ?i...? r?.i ? vtntv iiiv u. iu-Bi\ivub nuu.u icci nuuiuniv iu cuter Mexico with military forces at tlxo call of the constitutional authorities, in order to protect our citizens and our treaty v'^hts. Unless such authority is conferred cii the President, outrages will continue to be committed on our citizens and our guarantied rights. Tlie President adds that lie li:ts been reluctantly led to ndopt the saiiio opinion, ami lie feels bound to announce this con elusion to Congress. This is a question which relates to the future, as well as-to (lie present and the past. The aid which Mexico requires, and which the iutercMs of all commercial countries require should be extended to her, it devolves on this Government to render, not.only l>y virtue of onr neighborhood to Mexico, but by virtue also of our established policy, which repudiates the intervention of any European power in the domestic concerns of that Republic. For reasons 6tate<1, the President recommends tho passage of a' law authorising him to, emploj'military force a%j.vQiuy be necessary for thu purpose of obtaining indemnity fur the past, mid security for ibc future. Should it bo the pleasure of Con?? i> gresa that volunteers should bo selected for such a purpose, a force could bo raised in this country, among thoso who sympathise with the sufig/r.ings of our fallowcitizens in Mexico, atifclwith the *pn$t and present unhappy condition of that country, Snyh an accession (o the forces of^Jje Constitutional Government of Mexico would enuhle it soon to reach the capital.

The President says it appears extremely doubtful whether we shall be abto to pa>s through tho present and next fiscal year without additional revenue.

CHARACTEa^ftN*D*REPT7TATI0N. 1 I will draw a distinction between eharacJ ter and reputation, which are not synonv! inous. A man's character is the reality j himself; his reputation, the opinion others I have formed about him ; character resides ! in him, reputation in other people; that | is the substance, this the shadow ; they are I sometimes grcateror less, if a man bo ablo ' to achieve things beyond his time, his I reputation will be different from his character ' Ho who seeks reputation must not bo be| yond the time3 ho lives in. It is important to men begining hfu to know which they want.?charactcr or reputation. To builj a character is a work of time ; as ships are built on one clement and used in another, so character is formed in youth and home, fur after life. Reputation is easily got; it is generally charlatanism, taking many forms?as that of the patriot, a tribe numerous as mosquitoes, who, like them, lean and hungry, suck all the blood they can, but j make none?who live on suction. In a I man, as in a ship, the material must exist j originally ; a man naturally mean may be I improved, but never will he a noble man. ! i i- e . I ikvjiuiiiuuii iimy uc maue lor u man j cnarncter must be made by him, with -labor and time, and it cannot bo taken away. The antagonism between the two is Dot so great as the disproportion. Thus, a man, if wise, will be content to be considered wiser; he likes a shadow three-times his size; likes banks that'issuc three paper dollars for every one in fpecie thc-y have ; if worth a quarter ho lik^CcTbettalled worth half a million, until thd'assessor brings him to his senses. IIo will disclaim "popularity,' but^lainVMhc same thing under (.ho name of ' influence but it is what God tnade a man and ho makes of himself that deter i.:_ i. ii . it - i * ? ui.s iiiiiiiciice ; me weigius never a?K a favor of llie scales; a thousand pounds will weigh down five hundred by their natural force. So he speaks of "prudence. Prudcnce is coincident with rectitude; and there have been men jftgainst the grain of v^ife all th^ir days who yet were most prudent'" men. lie substitutes love of approbation for love of truth. Thousands IjtfG iUeir character to eavo their reputation. rriii.osoriiY.fA sd Leanness.?''There was a in an in Lancashire whose appetite, was enormous; he was always eating, and yet could never got fat Ho was tho thincst and most miserable of creatures to look at.

I suppose tho author of the queries will admit iheSaviour was baptized either at, in or with the river Jordan: and either by sprinkling pouring or immersion. If he admits litis bo is as responsible for the profession of faith as I am. Baptizing in tho name of tho Father, tho C? 1 ?!.- IT 1_. 01 . _ , . .1 _ cxmi nuu iuo noiy vjruusi, menns umo mc Father Son and Holy?tb? idea is not that it was by the authority of the Trinity, hut that by baptism there was to be professed a suhjectiuu to tlie Father Son and Holy Spirit, in respect to faith and and obedienco. Now the Saviour's baptism no more implied a necessity for this subjection, than his partaking of the supper implied that he was a "sinner or that he exercised faith in himself. But viewing the blessed Saviour as the representative of his peoplo where was the impropriety of submitting to it just as John administered itthers? What John said, we are not informed ; nor are we in Turmoil (independent of tlio Commission) what the apostles said in baptising after the Saviour's ascension, from the mere historical account of the ordinance. John acknowledged the superiority of the Saviour, and hesitated saying ' I have need to be baptised of 0we."s_ Anil ho may have said 1 baptize,yofr according to your own request. This wouldMiave been true. But whatever John 6nicl, it was right, as it met the approbation of the Trinity. But whatever opinions wo may form two facts aro obvious. 1st. That the scriptural account of John's ordinance clearly shows that it had a relation to all the persons of the Trinity, and that he so understood and taught. # 2nd. That we are uot informed of any exception lo ibis rule. * Query 1st. "By what formulae did Jolm administer baptism." This query is intimjjleiy. connected with the last. Wo know i jhaiitiie diticiples.baptized in the name of 'ttiOs Father Son ?od Holy Ghost, because tliey were eommanded to do Hp. Yet aq far as the historical accounts of the ordi nance i^given in Ctio stjr.ipture, it would lie easier to prove that^jobn usgd this rormuloe than liiat lliu disciples did., John in hifcjtddresees atllie waterside broughttffstinctly lo .view the officea of the Fattier Son and Ghost, find hence we have reasqn to say tfm< formulae of John was tlitj ?Minen? that presented in the commission.
