8Y1ICFSIS OF THE PRESIDENTS KiSSAOE- j
Washington, Dec. 27.?The Message
of liic l'rcndei.t was communicated to
Congress to day, at twelve o'clock.
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

All our <liil]cullics with Paraguay have

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

without additional revenue. Slwuld a deficiency
occur, lie recommends that tlie necessary
revenue shall bo raised by an increase

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

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

connected with the last. Wo know

tliey were eommanded to do Hp. Yet aq

&N OLD PARLIAMENT LI AN?LORD PALMERSTON.
Come and see Paluieraton, the statesman.
That is him; that old gonth-mrn in (lie
middle of the treasury h-Mnli of the llousc
of Commons, with hat pu'U'd down tightly
over his eyes, at ms across lii? breast, and
one leg thrown over. Is not ho in a capital
state of preservation, w ith nothing to
hurt him but now and then a twinge of
his old enemy, the gout?a souvenir of
2 A ..u
still crude on hor*cha< k as itver youthfui
knight, wcntlinir 'tin way Jo lady's bower.
Dr. Johnson said of dhucing dojjs, 'The
wonder is not ilint th<<y dance so well, hut
that tlioy dance at all,' So with Lord l'almerslon,
tlio wonder is, not that he rules
the country so well, hut that he dot-; it at
all, when most men would he in a state of
idiotic decay. It says something f>>r the

said Robert Peelo played on the House
liko an old fiddle. l'almerston does the
same. His birth, his office, his expectation
nil make him feel athotne in it (' and when
he iitj down there is a laugh, and the
questioner, somehow or other, feels ho ha*

scarce knows what. Your . cxp?v.\tiioin
