XHE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
Th« attention of Congress is called to tho
' ■ question of a reciprocal trade to tween the United
' States and tie various possessions of Great Bn
• ’tain ; : and also to the boundary line between tho
■ Territory of Oregon and the British possessions
in that region; The political condition of the
- Sandwich Islands is referred to; also the dis
turbances in a part of the 'Mexican territory;
- the difficulties in Nicaragua; the railroad across
, the Isthmus of Tehnantepee; and the Panama
railroad- It is recommended that the cotapensa
v tioa of the representative of our country in
r.:, China bo increased, in consequence of the post
* ■" ' being now vacaut..owing to tho oxpenso of living
•there. The state of onr finances is represented
as highly flourishing; but tho receipts for the
next fiscal year are estimated at about five hon
■dred thousand dollars less than they were during
the last year. It is thought that our domestio
for the coming year will be very ma
terially decreased in value, owing to the large
cotton crop, and the low price of our agricultu
ta-produotionsr while a very large increase m
' theexportation of specie is confidently antici
pated;'# In view of our largely increased and in
creasing revenues, the President recommends
' that some provision be made by Congress for
extinguishing the outstanding public debt.
A considerable degree of attention is bestowed
upon onr affairs with tho State of Texas, on
ginatinginthe treaty of annexation and tho law
of 1850- Tho Bales of the publio lands ore rep
resented OS having been. largely increased over
the preceding year, and a further increase is
' anticipated for the next year. Reference is
made to the progress of the surveys m Oregon
- andCalifornia,'. and also to the proper disposal
; of tile mineral lands of California.
The establishment of an Agricultural Burtan,
is a matter which olaims much or the attention
■of the President. "Four-fifths of our active
" papulation are employed in the cultivation-of the
- son," and he contends, therefore, that the '•Gov
■ eriheht should use all the means authorised by
• the Constiiution to promote the interests and
welfare of that important class of onr fellow
(fitixehs." Ho very justly remarks, in relation
- - to the great amount of legislation for the benefit
, Of commerce and manufactures, that it is a re
proach to our legislation, that so little has been
done for. the agriculturists. This is a subject
which has not claimed much of the attention of
our countrymen ; hut if such a Bureau can be
: constitutionally established, we think it should
.* ot once be done. It is true that, for some years
past* much of the good aimed at by the proposed
* Bureau, has been done through the Patent. Of
; fice; but the business of such an organization
-cannot be so effectively conducted as it would be
separately and in a comparatively independent
- manner. The Patent Office, and the Offioe of
"the Public Lands—though branches of the Do-
'parfinint of the Interior—are separate offices,
• and So, properly, it would seem to ua, should be
-‘'-a Bureau of Agriculture.
" . Under the act granting bounty lands to per
. • ' sofis’who hadbeen engaged in theSoititary ser
' vice of toe oonntry, the President says that
“near one hundred thonsaod appUoations have |
•-been considered; and about seventy thousand,
■ Warrants issued within the shoTt space of nine ,
months.” The Department has recommended ,
•■ the adoption of a plan which, it is thought, will ,
settle tho claims of all applicants before the close
’ : 'ofthe next fiscal year. The Secretary suggests,
"various amendments of the laws relating to pen
-r glens and bounty lands. With regard to the In- ,
- dlan population upon onr bordere—but especial-,
ly in the territory acquired from Mexico—the
' recommendations of the President are just and ;
■ - humane. In view of the rapid advance of the |
- 'White population, we think that ample provision ;
ujjunld be made for their immediate wants, and ,
' for- their encouragement while becoming aeons-,
' -timed to the arts and pursuits of civilised life, j
Since the transmission of tho last annual mes-,
'«ge the work of marking the boundary tine be
tween the "United States and Mexico has been
rarndly prosecuted; and suitable landmarks have
bekpW ‘along the tine, from the Gila to the
- Colorado. The prosecution of too euryeyg from
tliefiio Grande westward have also been prose
•- 'ented With vigor. The returns m Ration to the
. seventh census have all been completed except- j
ing those from California- The Superintendent
" of the census, we are told, is prepanng a work

The Blhle u » Common »ob«H>l Boote
It would appear from the following, which we
clip from a late number of the Boston Ttma, that
the question, which Bo much disturbed bow York
a few years ago, m relation to the use of the
Bible as a common school book, is about to dis
turb the Puritan surface of Massachusetts. The
I foia says:
A matter of no little interest bos recently en
grossed, the attention ot the School Committee of
the city of Cambridge. It appear* that one of
i the roles in the schools of that city is, that se
lections from the Bible be read by the pam a
daily This order has recently been objected to
by a scholar in one of the schools at the rart-
When it came this pupil's turn to read, an ob
iaction was mndo on the. ground that his parents,
who were Catholics, instructed him not to rend
the Protestant Bible. The teacher of the school
immediately informed the Bcbool Committee an
the subject, which Board, wc learn, notified the
parents of the child that they must either with
draw him from the school, or instruct him to
comply with the established rules of the school,
and orders of his instructor.
We learn that a suit at law is m grow oul or
the trouble, and that a legal gentleman has al
ready been retained as counsel by the parents of
the pupil referred to, and that the ground taken
is. that tho school in question bos openly nola-
the 83d section of the 23d chapter of the
Revised Statutes, prohibiting the introduction of
sectarian books into our publio schools.
We regret most deeply to eeo the question of
the reading of the Bible In Schools aboot te bo
made once more a cause of angry feeling among
OUT People. Wo hare atwayß regarded that ron
crated volume as too sacred a book to be made
the cause of publio strife, and we had hoped that
I the difficulty hail boen settled. But it appears
that there aro some still willing to agitate o
question that will do no good u, the cause of
religion, and can only result in engendering bit
ter feelings between different portions of the
country.

for toe purpose of injuring my characterandof

i That my agendy in the matter may he fhl y
i derstood, I think it necessary to give a historyof
u conversation between Dr. McClmtockand my
self on the Bubject of the passage of the Bill m
question. I was in Pittsburgh in the monthof
June, 1860, and Dr. MeCUntook called on me,
and requested a private interview, inthat toter
viow. He introduced the matter of toe passage
of toe Hempfield Bail Road Bill, and I told him
that you hid readthe Bill m Place sometime
previous to its passage, and that it was oaUe p,
and passed the Houbo on toe day beforo the ad
journment hf toe Legislature. He atoted to me
that ho recollected of your “
place, but thought it was a Plank Bf udßdl .is
we had been passing a good many bills of that
character for onr county. He went ontosay
that he was a candidate for toe Congressional
nomination in Allegheny County, and was anx
ious to secure it against Ur. DaUas. but that
was afraid the Hempfield BUI was killing hnn.-
He said he had always been a friend of mine,
and that I must soften down the bnamess for hup
as much as 1 could, before I left toe&ty. He
aUeged to me at toe time that be had been tmt of
the House, in one of the offices when the BiU
passed, and knew nothing abontito passage and
thought that the. friends of the Bill ®ust havo
sought toe opportunity, when he was absent, to
pass it Dr MeCUntook then explicitly made
the proposition to me.that if I could do so, I
would do him a kindness to any conversations,
1 might have with his Meads op the subject to
mention It to them in this tight, saying that I
need have no hesitation to speaking to them free
ly for that ao public use would be made of my
statements. He particularly requested me to see
John B. Guthrie, and explain the matter to tom,
and make it as easy os possible. I told Dr. Mo-
CUntock that I had no recollection of whether
be was to toe House or not when the BUI passed,
but that anything which I could do to exonerate
him from censure, I would be happy to do. I
saw Mr. Guthrie the samo evening, and he walk •
ed with me to my lodgings. Ho to me
that it was a pity of MoCltotoek, and that he
thought that I ought to do something to extri
cate him from hU unpleasant position. We con
versed a good whUe and very freely upon the
subject. The substance of what I may have
arid, or how or towhom spoken, while in Pittsburg
in relation to this matter. I cannot of Course
pretend to give now with any accuracy, neither
have I sufficient intimacy with Messrs. Darragh,
Nicholson and Cooler to know whether they were
present otanyoonversation I may have had about
the BiU. Bat anything that l did say, was said
with toe friendly design of assisting Dr. Mo
Ciintoch to a matter wherein 1 had no cause to
suppose that be was to blame, and in a way that
1 believed could done possible injnrvto anybody.
\fter I returned home to toe month of Angnst,
I received a letter inclosed to one from Mr. Guth
rie. of which the following is a copy:
WtaraoßtXA3» Comm, Pa., I
August'—, 1860. i
Dear Sir .-—Your letter of the 31st alt., re
questing my answer to several questions reU;
tire to Dr. MeCltotoek and the Hempfield Rail
Road BIU, has been received.
1 am sorry to learn that Dr. MeCltotoek is
charged by any person with neglect of_ duty or
want of attention to the interests of Allegheny
County, for I assure you be was one of toe most
industrious and vigilant working members of toe
Legislature, and ills surprising that any rnnxen
of Allegheny county should entertain a contrary
opinion In reply to toe questions contained in
your letter, I answer as follows, vis:
Ist l was to toe lions* of Representatives
daring toe whole time that toe Hempfield Rail
Road Bill was underconsideration.
■2d Dr MeCltotoek knew nothing about the
I preparation of toe bill, nor did he know tool
1 such a measure was contemplated.
3d. Dr. MeCUntook was not to his seat, nor
was he at any time in toe House, while too bill
■ «ras under consideration.
j 4th. I believe now as I believed then, that if
Dr MeCltotoek had been to bis seat, or in the
House, while to* Jnli was being considered, ho
would have noticed it, and just os certainly op
posed id passage with *U his energy. It was
not intended by too friends of the measure that
Dr MeCltotoek should know anything about it
Very respectfully, your obt »Vt.
On perusing it, 1 told toe messenger who bad
brought this letter that It contained statements
which 1 neither could nor would deliberately
make;—that I wos wilting to befriend Dr. Me-
Clintock os far on l could do so without falsifying
deliberately the history of toe transaction,
but that I would neitfler writo nor sign what was
contained to the letter enclosed. This letter was
brought to me three days before toe dele* ate
meeting to be held to Pittsburgh to nomnote a
candidate for CongreßS, and was intended to bo
used to Dr. MeCltotoek - * favor to toot meeting.
After he was nominated. Dr. MeCltotoek wrote
to mo and requested of mo to make such a wnt
ten statement as had been previously desired of
me by Mr. Guthrie; to this letter and request, 1
returned no answer whatever. These are all
too facts which l.now recollect, relating to my
connection with this business, and 1 have only
funheV to add, that I neither was privy to, or
know of, any fraudulent or unfair menus being
used to procure too passage of the Hempfield
Railroad BiU, nor do I believe that any such was
mode use of. That anything which 1 may have
said or done, oven with toe charitable purpose of
obliging ono whom I had considered as a Mend,
has been the means ofgmng somo kind of color
to such an imputation, to to me a source of re
irret But the motive and the character of the
oontrivaaoe of Dr. MoCltotook and his friends to
redeem his standing, at the expense of others,
whose only feeUng to too matter was to save him,
will, 1 have no doubt, be weU understood by an
tateUigent pablio; and to their opinion I am
content to leave toe whole eubjeot.
Very respectfully,
-JOSEPH GUFFEY.
Letter from R. H. Adorn e auperintendant of
publio printing
H. P. Laird Esq. , .
Dear Sir .—ln answer to your tot interroga
tory, I will stato that it is no unusual thing to
alter sprinted Bill, to save time teouble.
Previous to the passage of the gonoral mlroad
and turnpike and plankroadbills- n ' D °
every ten of tho Bills read in plaoe and reported
and especially those for the incorporation of
turnpike companies were altered from Plated
bllla of other companies. We have frequently
printed billß for two or three different oompames
from the same form, merely changing the name
and location with some other trifling discrepan
cies. Your second inquiry is answered above.
I will also state that in my note to or.
M’Clintook of the 80th July last. I did not
mean to oonvey the idea that in using an altereu
Bill there was anything improper. The empna
-Bis placed upon “altered” “woe never printer
“ original" and “ Ringgolde railroad bilF in my
letter are the work of Dr. M’Clintook. At least
such is my impression. It has always been so
oommon a custom to use printed bills that I did
not suppose any person, oven the Dr. himself
would view it in an improper light The print
ing of the Bills, as well as all other printing is
done under the dlreoflon of the Speaker of the
Uouße. Neßrthe close <if the session it frequent
ly happens that bills are not sent to the printer
beoauße those having charge of them desire to
have them athahdat any moment thntan oppor
tunity offers for getting them up
-1 Yours &0.,
B. H. ADAMS.

men named in connection with the cabinet of 1
Gov. Bigler, none seems to stand more promi
nent than F. W.; Hbghbs, Esq., of Schuylkill
county. He is tho. concentration of a
sterling and unflinching Democrat. To his
powerful efforts are mainly atWbutoble the
great change at the late elcctionsiii favor ofthe
Democratic ticket, in the eonntjr of Bchnylm,
j and that region of our State. He is a genufrv
I man of most pure character, possessing the;
most sterling abilities, and an untiring mid un
wavering devotion to the Democratic party. The
appointment of F. W. Haghes to a seat in OUT
I Governor’s Cabinet, would be a merited tribute to
I worth, and be generally satisfactory. Usioh.

appear to be determined to “multiply and re

hundred and ninety-seven marriage licenses
have been issued by the County Clerk, daring
tho two months ending Nov. 29, 1851.
j The next censes will, no doubt, tell the conse
quences of issuing alHhese licenses.

pernicious influence on the blood, not
lag but in vitiating it. The blood imbibes the
stimulant narcotic principle, and circulates it
through the whole system. It produces, incon

tobacco in this way. must favor tbo despotic of

consumption. This practice impairs the natu

and weakens tho powers of the stomach. As to
pleasure produced by it, it is I believe a well kiwwn
fact that a person smoking in the dark m rerjr
