The Times upholds the decision, and . points to Mr. Bancroft as the kind of man who would have been selected to delivor the-lectnrcs, and congratulates the country anon the abandonment of the scheme. i There appears to bc an unusual move milt on the part of the poorer class of the Fffcnch people towards emigration. During the last fow months, a large num 5 bf hare sailed for different American j jjrts, but, strange to say, none of them go fl Mexico, in spite of the great ind?ce? le its held out to them. Daring January Ms:, 778 emigrants sailed from Havre, and ?fthesc WO were bound to Now York; 105 ? ff)T New Orleans; 35 for La Plata; 1 for i I Kaebec, and 1 for Bio Janeiro, but not one . MOT Mexico.

Tho following is a synopsis of the President's message, vetoing tho "Civil Rights bili": By the first section of the bill, all persons bom in the United States, and not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, .?rc de? clared to bo citizens of the TJnhed States. This provision comprehends the Chinese of the Pacific States, Indians subject to taxation, and the people called Gypsies, as "well as the entire race designated as blacks, people of color, negroes, mulattoes, and persons of African blood. Every individual of these races born in the United States is, by the bill, made a citizen of thc United States. It does not purport, to declare or confer any other right of citizenship than Fede? ral citizenship, and does not purport to give these classes ol* persons any stains as citizens of States, except that which may result from their status as citizens of the United States. The power to confer the right of State citizenship, is just as exclusive? ly with the several States as the power to confer the right of Federal citi? zenship is with Congress. The right oi Federal citizenship tims to be con? ferred on the several excepted races before mentioned, is now, for the first time, proposed to bo given by law. The bill, in effect, proposes a discrimination against large numbers of foreigners, and in favor of the negro, to whom, after long years of bondage, the avenues to freedom and intelligence have now been suddenly opened. He must of necessity, from his previous unfortunate condition of servitude, be less informed as to the nature and character of our institu? tions than he who, coming from abroad, has to some extent, at least, familiarized himself with the princi? ples of government to which he vo? luntarily entrusted life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Yet, it is now proposed by a single legislative enactment to confer the rights of citi? zens upon all persons of African de? scent born within the extended limits of the United States, while persons of foreign birth who make our land their homes must undergo a proba? tion of five years, and can only then become citizens upon proof that they are of good moral character, at? tached to the principles of the insti? tutions of the United States, and well disposed to the good order and hap? piness of the same. In reviewing these sections of the bill, he says: If it be granted that Congress can repeal all State laws discriminating between whites and blacks on the subjects covered by this bill, why, it may be asked, may no! Congress repeal in the same way all State laws discriminating between the two races on thc subjects of suf? frage and office? If Congress car declare by law who shall hold lands, who shall testify, who shall have ca? pacity to make a contract in a State then Congress can by law also declart "who, without regard to color or race shall have the right to act as a juro] or as a judge, or to hold any othej office, and, ihialjs^to vote in even I^*f*^1i?l^?rritory Triche Unitet *T ^.s respecta the Territories, the; 7 cjie within the power of Congress 58 ft as to them the law-making powe: 3 isiie Federal power; but as to tin Sites, no similar provision exist r 'vjting in Congress the power ti e njke rules and regulations for them 6 Bo President says, in conclusion, ii ~ aj our history-in all our experienc " aqa people living under Federal am * S(ite law-no such system ns tha 1 cditemplated by the details of thi ? bil has ever before been proposed o i adopted. They establish for the S? . c?iity of the colored race safeguard waich go infinitely beyond any the thu General Government has eve provided for the white race. The j interfern with the municipal legish ; tion of the States, wi til t?l?T xtl^ZioE ! existing exclusively between a Stat and its citizens, or between the inhi bitants of the same State, in tb absorption and assumption of pow? by the General Government, whicl j if acquiesced in, must sap and destro ! our federative system of limite ! powers, and break down the barrie] j which preserve the rights of tl > States, it is another step, or ratln stride, towards centralization and tl: concentration of all legislative powe: in the National Government. Tl tendency ol the bill must be tc >-esu 1 citate the ifbirit of rebellion, and \ arrest life progress of those infincne: I which are more closely drawir : around the States the bonds of unie 1 ! and peace. My lamented predece i sor, in his proclamation of the 1st I January, lMt?, ordered and deolan that all persons held as slaves with certain States and parts of Stat therein designated, were and theuo forward should be free; and furthe that the Executive Government the United States, including the mi tary and naval authorities therec would recognize and maintain tl 1 freedom of such persons. This gu ran tee has been rendered especial 1 obligatory and sacred by the amen ' ment of the Constitution abolishii slavery throughout tho United ?Stat< I therefore fully recognize the oblig tion to protect and defend that clo ' of our peoplo whenever and wherev it shall become necessary, and4o t 1 full extent compatible with the Co '. stitution of the United States. Entertaining these sentiments, only remains for me to say ?L^r ij-v cheerfully co-otr^rate in unjfc^? 11 that ma^jc aabry M??WK^1 ? r?en, as well as those of all other classes of persons throughout the United States, by judicial process un? der equal and impartial laws, in con? formity with the provisions of the Federal Court. I now return the bill to the Senate, and regret that, in considering thc billa and joint resolutions-forty-two in number-which have been thus far submitted for my approval, I am com? pelled to withhold my assent from a second measure that has received the sanction of both Houses of Congress. GOLD AND FINANCIAL AFFAIRS.-Sa? turday was an exciting day in New York. The gold market and the general condition of monetary con? cerns threw Gotham into very great agitation. The price of gold ran down to 124J-8, and closed at 125J8'. The struggle beiween the bulls and bears was energetic and obstinate. To the out-siders th** contest was in? teresting, but to hundreds of those in the ring, it was appalling. In the vibrations of the gold market of tht last four months, thousands have been ruined in purse; while the de? moralizing effects of its desperate speculations have inflicted upon nu? merous otlie"? the still greater in? jury of loss o character, honor and everything. The present aspect of the great Gotham is ai omalous, indeed. With a superabun iance of money, it finds itself in th? greatest strait it has, perhaps, evt .. known. Every branch of trade is ox < rdone. "With merchants hard presse* and eager to sell, and an unusually limited number of buyers, go ms have rapidly fallen, and still thc remand is not increased. The expedient seems to exert no more effect than the whistling for a breeze during a calm at sea. In the mean? time, rents and other expenses of bu? siness are extravagantly high, and I though receding somewhat, are not declining i:i any manner compatible I with the reduced profits and limited j resources of the trade. In such a case, money is perfectly helpless. The capitalist may advance it to enable the merchant to meet im? mediate acceptances; but will thal put him in better condition to outlive the great revulsion which is evident from the all-pervading pressure ol the day? Money employed with that object only increases the weight upor the community and the violence ant crash of the idtiinate fall. The los* upon goods cannot be borne by th< trade, and to prolong a struggle bx incurring heavy debts on loans, witl no prospect of an advance in price: and a recovery from the pressure ii any available time, would be folly. I cannot be done. Saturday, therefore, was a day o excitement iu New York. The South ern States and Southern crops o other days would relieve the pressur by supplying the foreign exchang and the homo demand. This is ; dead resource now, and will be a long as radicalism bears sway! In this city there is pressure a iii some rumored failures; but, really there is not rauch room to fail at th South. We are in the condition c the man who, falling down a steep o SkdprV night, imagined that he wa falling some 200 feet. Fortunately just as ho xvent over the brink, h seized a sapling and held on to it fe hie and death.

THE NEW VOLCANIC ISLAND IN TH GRECIAN ARCHIPELAGO. -The sudd? rise of ? volcanic island in the Gri cian Archipelago is one of the mci remarkable phenomena of moder times. A correspondent at Patchogu Long Island, sends to the New Yoi Herald an extract from a private le ter, written near the scene of tl occurrence, giving the following int resting details: SYRA, GEHEGE, February 15, I860. * * * * The island of Saut rini has been in eruption for s ; whole days-some say more.

An island h sprung up from under the sea, n far distant from Santorini, whi< seems to bc a mountain of coal lava, and is now about 500 feet abo the surface.
