President's lifessage.—On Friday, June 22d, the President transmitted a message to Congress, announcing that the Secret:4:6f State had, on the 'l6th instant., transmitted ' to the Governors of the several States certi fied copies of the joint resolution passe& on the 13th instant, proposing an amendment•to the COnstitution. The rerniikidef of, the message, Which we give bales', shows how : r ohiltitiately the President i :adlieres to 'fits` Pur- - ;Y-pase to thwart the loyal , sentinibrit 'of the country, and prematurely torreatore the rebel . - States to all their iiilitn in the Union : `` Even in ordinary lintels question of amend ' ing the Constitution musebejustlYregarded as of Paramouet importance. is importance: is at the Rresent time enhanced by the fact, .- that the joint resolution was. not submitted Prthe two Houses .for the approval the' esident, and that of the thirty-six States which constitute' the Union, eleven are ex- Aluded from representation in ,either }louse 'grk goilgress, although, with the4ngle, lion of Texas, they have been entirely re stored to all their functions as States in con formity with an organic law of the land, and' have appeared at the. National Capital by. Senators and Representatives, who have ap plied for, and have been refused admission to, the vacant seats. Nor have the sovereign people of the nation been afforded an oppor tinily of expressing their views upon , the im portant questions which the amendment in volves. Grave doubts, therefore, may natu rally and justly arise as to whether the action of Congress is in harmony with the sentiment 'of the people, rand whether State Legis latures, elected without reference to such an issue, should be called,, upon by Con gress to decide respeeting the ratification of the proposed amendment. Waiving the question as to the Constitutional vailid ity of the proceedings of : Congress- upon the joint resolution proposing• the amend ment, or as to the merit of the article which it submits, thrnugh the Ereentive Department, to the Legislatures of the States, I deem it proper to observe that the steps taken by the Secretarpof State, as detailed in the accompanying report, are to be consi dered as purely ministerial, and in no sense whatever committing the. Executive .to an approval or recommendation of the amend ment to the State Legislatures or to the people; on the contrary, a proper appreciation of the letter and spirit of the COnstitution, as well as of the interest of national order, harmony and union, and a deference for an enlightened public judgment, may, at this time, well sug gest a doubt whether any amendment.to the ,Constitution ought to be, proposed by Con gress and, pressed upon the Legislatures of the several States for finaldecision until after the admission of such loyal Senators and Representatives' Of the now unrepresented States as have 'been or as may hereafter be 'chosen in conformity with the Constitution and laws of the United States.

The Loyal Georgian.—ln a recent special, The Press stated that "General Tillson' - had suppressed the, Loyal Georgian at Augusta, Georgia. I ,vvas mistaken. He telegraphs to General 'Howard thatcsuch the fact, but that the Georgian is still published. The rumor -ddubtless originated because the- Georgian severely andrfearlessly-'eondemned General Tillson ; for preventing -the teachers of the colored,schppls anti their, scholnrs at Augusta from doinghonor to' the memory of the Union dead bnried in the .cemetery near' that city. The 'Georgian of the 9th of May contains these strictures, and shows that, Gen. Tillson made a great blunder in suppgaing he was doing geod.to the cause of humanity by 'soling upon the belief that it would be in sulting to the tender susceptibilities of the families of the dead rebels in and around Au gusta, if the true friends of .the dead Union heroes paid the same grateful to their memory that were so ostentatiously displayed by the relatives and •friinds of their dead enemies." The editor, J. E. Bryant, was ar rested June 12th, by civil authority for at tempting to defraud negroes out of money, borrowe.d,of them , when he IBryant) was an' officer of the Governinent. He was released 'on 'bail, a colored man becoming his surety. More recent, intelligence shows that General Tillson has acted with the greatest tyranny in his attempts to control and crush the Loyal Georgiqn, a newspaper conducted with power and ability in the interests of the: colored men. Nothing but the fearless and consci entious conrseof Captain Bryant, the editor of the paper, has thus far retarded the, der signs of this military agent of Andrevv John son. Recent. letters state that threats have been made to assassinate Mr. Bryant, be cause he will not desist in. his,.. course, and because he boldly exinsses the wickedness of Tillsop and his associates: The, colored peo ple are against Tills= in a . hOdY, while the recent rebels are unanimously in , liiS7 favor: General Saxton certifies , unconditionally to the integrity of purpose and high-spuled pa triotiirn of Captain Bryant ' „ The MoniterNifittonolak—lkeepatches law:A:teen xeceived -at the stfavy-Deliartment announcing the arrival of the monitor .Mian- 4 ' e THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN': 'TATES' DAYO ',MLA' ""9 1866 9 tonomah and the accompanying vessels at Queenstown, Ireland.
