PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
In our paper of this morning will bo found the
annual message of President Pout. -.lt is long, but
ffC hope this will not induce any qno W's£tgo the
reading of it. It i* a document toplOto wilhVdUml
practical views, and is ovdry;,tvay. .worthyjHlid 'head
and heart of its distinguished author; " , '
On the subject of the war, Presiden t Polk employs
the language of a statesman and true American.—
For months the Federalists snccringly
liking the question—" Whalan toe fighting Jot?”
Lot them, one and nil, carefully read the message of
the President. By doing so they will learn to'their
full satisfaction (if they be honest men,) what wo ore
fighting for. The message is a full, able, and tri
umphant answer to tho question, and tho.facts pre
sented in defence of the position of our government,
should forever silence , those who wotfld tarnish the
fair fame of our country by their vain clferlsto make
it appear that wo are committing an outrage upon
Mexico by prosecuting-the present war, Every ar-,
gument advanced by. the Federalists in defence of
Mexico and in opposition to . the United Stales, is
most triumphantly met and answerc/Lby .the Presi.
dentin his admirable.message { orwfptir* opponents,
themselves, we doubt not, feel mortified and chagrin*
cd at tho position they are forced t& occupy" before
the country. 1 ’
The message is also sound .on all the other subjects
(treats. .Thu good effects of the.tariff of!B4G arc
liown, and it is to bo hoped that the present revenue
nvs will be permitted to. remain unmolested.} os tho
xrinancnt policy of the government Cut, the
nessage does not require praise at our hands, nor
locs it need any explanation. Although dcganlly
vriltcn, a child can understand every position as
mined by the President We therefore ask all, friend
ind.foo, to give the message a careful perusal, and
hen judge for himself.

■V The True Light.
M. A. Root, the great Dagaerreotypist of this
city, hoe fitted up a room, in the third story of his
establishment; expressly to obtain the manifest
advantage of the northern light. Tho light froth
that direction is necessarily sought by all. paint
ers, because of its firmness and uniformity, and
Mr. Hoot, with consummate fact, resolved to avail
himself of thi.B.aid, to correct shadows.
The.BdsJojuAllas speaks of the portraits by the
distinguished Daguerreotypisl, M. A. Root, and
was astonished to find that the art had been carried
to such a high degree of perfection. Mr. Root, by
some new chemical discoveries, has been enabled
to transfer.the human countenance to the Daguer
reotype plaid with an accuracy and fidelity alto,
gather inconceivable. Even the joyous and laugh,
ing face of lltp infant is transferred in ah instant
lo the enduring silver plate with astonishing accu
racy,' notwithstanding in infant life there isscarce.

The North American and United Slates Gazette
says of a Fatpily Group of Mr. Hoot-—“lt was
universally tibknowledged worthy of being class
ed among tho,.first trinmphs. of this
art.” r , t
The City Item says— u We nre‘ 'delighted as
Philadelphians, to learn that Mr. Root took the
medal arid highest premium for his superb pic
tures bolh ii} £taw York and Boston, overall com

pictures areas near perfection as it is possible to'
get; There, is.thought, delicacy, finish, and the
