ceivc ilictii, who is required to reside on the
const, was unnecessary, and they might have
been landed by our vessels any whore in Africa,
and left exposed to the sufferings and the fate
which would certainly await theui.
Mr. Monroe, in his special message of 17th
of December, 1819, at the first session after
the act was passed, announced to Congress what
in his opinion, was its true construction. lie
believed it to be his duty under it, to follow
these unfortunates into Africa, and make pro
vision for them there, until they should be able
to provide for themselves. In communicating
this interpretation cf the act of Congress, ho
stated that some doubt had been entertained as
to its true intent and meaning, and ho submit
ted the question to them, so that they might,
'should it bo deemed advisable, amend the
same before further proceedings aro had under
it.' ~ |
Nothing was done by Congress to cxpiaiu the
act, and Mr. Monroe proceeded to tarry it in
to execution according to his own interpreta
tion. This, thou became the practical con
structs n. When tlie Africans firm on board
the Echo were delivered to the marshal at
Charleston, it leccuic my duty to consider
what disposition ought to be made of tbcui uii
dci the law. For maoy leasons, it was expedi
ent to remove them from that locality as speedi
ly as possible. Although the conduct of the
authorities and citizens of Cbailestcn, in giv
ing countenance to the execution of tlie law,
was just what might have been expected frcm
their high character, yet a prolonged con
tinuance of three hundred Africans in the
immediate vicinity of that city, could not have
failed to become a source of inconvenience and
anxiety to its inhabitants. Where to send theui,
was the question. There was no portion of the
coast of Afriea, to which they could bo removed
with any regard to huuiauiiy, except to Li
beria.
Under theso circumstances, an agreement
was cnteied into with the Colonizatioo Society
on the 7th of September last, a copy of which
is herewith transmitted, under which the Socie
ty engaged for the considcratin of forty-five
thousand dollais, to receive these Africans in
Liberia from the agent of the United States,
and furnish them during the period of one year
thereafter, with comfortable shelter, clothing,
ptovisious, and medical attendance, causing the
children to receive schooling; and all, whether
children or adults, 10 be instructed in the arts
of civilized life, s-ui'iiblc to their condition.
This aggregate of forty-live thousand dollars
was based upon an allowance of one hundred
and fifty dollars for each individual, and us j
there has been considerable mortality among
theui, aud in .y be more before they reach Afri- |
oa, the society have agreed, in an equitable |
spirit, to make such a deduction from tho j
amount, as under the circumstances may appear j
just and reasonable. This cannot be fixed un- !
til we shall ascertain the actual number which
may become a charge to the society.
Jt was also distinctly agreed, that under no
circumstances shall this government be called
upon for any additional expenses.
The agents of the society manifested a lau
dable desire to conform to the wishes of the
government, throughout the transaction. They
as.-ured me thai, after a caretul calculation,
they would be required to expeud tho sum of
one huiidrcdaud fitly doliaia ou ctoli ind'.riUuel
in complying with the agreement, and they
would have notlir-g left to remunerate them for
their care, trouble, and responsibility. At all ,
events, I could make DO better arrangement,
and there was no other alternative. Duriug
the period when the government itself, through 1
its own agents' uudertook the task of providing
for the captured negroes in Africa, the cost per
head was very much greater.
There having been no outstanding appropria
tion applicable to this purpose, I could not ad
vance any money on the agiecmout. 1 there
fore recommend that an appropriation may be
made, of the amount necessary to carry it into i
effect.
Other captures of a similar character may, :
and probably will, be made by our naval forces;
and I earnestly recommend, that Congress may
amend the second section of the act of March
3, 1539, so us to free its construction from j
the ambiguity which has so loDg existed, aud j
render tho duty of the President plain in exe
cu ing its provisions.
I recommend to your favorable regard the
local interests of the District of Columbia.—
As the residence of Congress aud the executive
departments of the government, we caunot fail
to feel a deep concern in its welfare. This is
heightened by the high character and the |
peaceful and orderly conduct of its rcsidcut in
habitants.
I cannot conclude without performing the
agreeable duty of expressing my gratification,
that Congress so kindly responded to the re
commendation of my last annual message, by i
affording uio sufficient time before the close of !
their late session for the examination of all the ;
hills presented to me for approval. This j
charge in the practice Congress, has proved to
be a wholesome reform. It exerted a beneficial
iufluence on the tiansaetion of legislative busi- |
ness, and elicited the general approbation of ,
the country. It enabled Congress to adjouru j
with that dignity and deliberation so becoming
to the representatives of this great republic,
without having crowded into general appro
priation bills provisiuus foreign to their nature, j
and of doubtful constitutionality and expedi
ency. Let me warmly and strongly commend \
this precedent, established by themselves, us a
guide to their proceedings during the present j
session.

Sworn statement of David McCreary, of Napicr
Township, Bedford county :
In April, 1850. as near us I can remember, a
.small pimple made its appearance on uiy upper lip,
which soon became enlarged and sore. I used
poltices of sotrel, anil a wash of blue" vitriol, with
out effect. Finding the sore extending, 1 culled on
Dr. Ely, of Schellsburg, who pronuunced it CAN
CER, and proscribed a wash of sugar of lead and
tread poultices. Finding these remedies of no
avail, I called upon Dr. Shaffer, of Davidsville,
Somerset county, who also pronounced the disease
Cancer, and gave me Internal and external remedies
—the latter consisting principally of caustic; tut
all to no purpose, as the disease continued spread
ing toward the nose. I next used a preparation of
arsenic, in the form of salve. This for a time
do eked the disease, but the inflamation soon in- !
creased. I next called upon Dr. Staller of St.
Clairsville, Bedford county, who also pronouueed
tiw disease Cancer, and applied a salve said to be a
never failing remedy, but it had no effect whatever
in checking the spread of the sore. In December,
I of the same year, tli i disease had eaten uway a
! greater nart of my upper lip, and had attacked the
i nose, w hen I went to Cincinnati, where I consulted
Prof. R. S. Newton,of the Electic Medical College.
He pronounced ilie disease "a cutaneous Cancer,
1 superinduced by an inordinate use of mercury.—
He applied mild zinc ointment, and gave internal
lemedies. My faoe healed up. but the inflamalion
was not thoroughly removed. In Febuary, 185*,
lie pronounced me cured, and I left for home. In
April the disease again returned and so violent was
the pain that I could not rest at night. Late in
May I returned to Cincikuati, and again placed
myself under the charge of Dr. Newton, with whom
I remained until September, during which time he
used every known remedy, and partly succeeded in
checking the disease, hut when I returned home
there were still three discharging ulcers upon ray
face. I continued using Newton's preparations,
and also medicine that I got from Dr. Ely, but the
Cancer continued growing until it hud cat off the
left silt of my nose, the greater portion of my left
cheek, and had attacked my left eye. I had given up
all hope of cvei being cured; since Dr. Ely said lie
could only give relief; but that a euro was impos
sible. lu March, 1858, 1 bought abcttic of 'Blood
Sce-archer,' but I must confess that 1 had uo faith
in it- I was very weak when I commenced taking
it; but 1 found that I gained strength day by day,
and also thai the ulcers commenced drying up. 1
continued, and when the third bottle was taken my
face was healed as if by a miracle. I used a forth
bottle, and 1 have been healthier since than 1 have
been for the last seven years. Although my face
is a.ally disfigured, lam still grateful to a benign
Providenc who has spared my life, and which has
been done through the instrumentality' of Likdsev's

NEW EVIDENCE.
Being i.fliicted with a grievous Tetter on the arms
and face—after try ing many remedies which utterly
failed to cure—l was persuaded by W. M. Harris is
Co. to try I.in say's Improved Blood Searcher; and
now, six weeks after finishing the seco:.d bottle,
pronounced myself cured.
The letter broke out, something over a year ago,
on the inside of my arms, extending from the el
bows down to the wrists ; aiso, on luy face, int.
mediately round the mouth and ciin, and continued
to lie a perfect torment to tut until cured by the Blood
Searcher. My arms, were almost useless, owing to
the cracks and sores on them, liable to bleed at
any time on the least exertion to lilt or work, anil
sometimes so itchy that I could scarcely prevent
tearing off my riesh. 1 have now been cured six
wrecks and feel it due to Mr. Lindsey, and to the
public generally, to make this statement, in hope
