This document is written ns directly by the President us it was his babit to fight. Though not as po lished, perhaps, as that of an accomplished writer, his recommendations are wise, aud giveu in a pointed add btisineSs liko wny. It is a clear and satisfactory resume of lliu affairs of tho nation of the past year, aud pro-emineutly sensible and dignitied in its treatment of the important subjects with Which it deals. The Cuban question receives a good share of his attention, and the modest tono of tho message in reference to I lie .Spanish Cuban difficulty is greatly to bo commend ed. In regard to the Virginius affair it is so decided thai Spain can have no doubt of the carncBlncss of our government, and the course already pursued meets with the hearty approval of tho coutitry. The President suggests two amend ments to the Constitution. Tho first to authorize the President to approve or dis approve of a portiou of a bill without being compelled to approve tr disapprove of the whole of it. To veto part of abill without destroying tho whole of it. The secoud is that when Cougrcss is convened for any special legislation, that during the contin uance of such extra session it confine all le gislation to those subjects which the Exe cutive may from time to bring before it. In regard to the finances he recommends that Congress shall prohibit National Banks paying iutercst ou deposits, by re quiring them to hold their reserves in their own vaults ; that national clearing houses bo established ; that tho Secretary of the Treasury may issue at any liiao to Na tional Banks, and of issue, any amount of their notes below a third of one per cent, upon the bonds, depositing with the Trea sury au amount of government bonds equal to the amouut of notes demanded, under ccrlaiu forfeiture of interest. Tim l'reai dent touches tho question of free banking very Bhyly, but he is not certain that Con gress should not consider it. lie wants a resumption of specie payment, but sees no wny to it until our exports arc equal to, or in excess of, our imports. He shows by various statistics that there is too little cur rency ; that the volume of it lias been per sistently contracted, while all forms of en terprise which create wants of more money have grown enoimously. Nothing could be more satisfactory to the people than this recognition of tho fact that the currency is not sufficient to meet the demands for it. The foregoing are some of tho most im portant features of the message, which do cument contains much matter of interest to every citizen, and we earusstly suggest that it be carefully read. Oxe of the meanest acts of the modern j Democracy, is that of turning ou their friends when they fall into trouble. The latest instauce of this kind occurs iu the conviction of Boss Tweed. As long as Tweed was carrying ou his nefarious po litical operations seudiug public mouey ; iuto Pennsylvania to influence voters for the purpose of carrying this State for the Democracy, all the little Democratic llings sang Ilosanua uuto Tweed. Since the ; Boss has got into trouble, and is to havo , twelve years of quiet meditation at Sing 1 Sing over his "ways that were dark and tricks that were vain," and for that luxu-; ry will bo required to pay his own board at the rate of SI, 002 50 per year, ins former; admirers are turning against him, and say ilservcs him right. Even the two model Democratic papers in this vicinity, iz : the Northumberland Count j Dimocrat and the ' Selinagroec Touts, are now dsuniiucing ; Tweed, as we did three venra nc-o. ns a ' - j o i bo as plain then ns it is uow. It looks as though honesty was nothing with them party advancement everything. As long as they could use Boss Tweed for that pur pose they stood up iu his defence, now they kick him aside since a court of justice has decided upon his dishonesty and just puu ishnicut, as an injurious clcmeut in their midst. Our neighbor of the Democrat is much put out about the conversation hetwecu himself aud the King Calculator which was published in the Amtriuun last weuk, and accuses ono of our compositors, ilr. Jacob Youngman, of being the author of the ar ticle. Mr. Youngman is cutiraly innocent in the matter, and knew otliino about the dialogue uutil it was q type. Wc can as sure our ncighlv ti,at ho is not correct in Lis supposi; and tlmt the author is bct r -0t'nuaiuied n illi tho operations of tho ' iting than is Mr. Youngmau, and he is pre pared to give some astounding facts iu re lation to tho Uiug "little irregularities" iu certain business transactions to which the editor of tho Democrat was cognizant, and which he defended in his paper. That "Erial" was correct in his report of the conversation between the calculator and the editor is proven by bis not answering ourqucitions, aud by tho apology be makes for not doing so. The selection of Fernando Wood of New York, by tho Democrats, as their caudidaio for Speaker in Congress, does not speak well for the honesty and reform of tho par ty. Wood openly favored tho rebellion was one of the leaders of the corrupt riug iu New York, of which the chief, Uoss Tweed, is now in the Penitentiary. Wood, also, wes in favor of the "Salary Grab," and voted ior and pocketed the back pay during the last" session of Congress, al though worth his hundreds of thousands, made as a leader iu the corrupt ring of New York polities. To endorse Wood a Las been doue in Lis selection for Speaker, is to endorse the infamous Salary Giab aud ncoundrel. Though a is right, it looks how the calculator will transpose the figures 8latC8 lll!lt lhey ,mia fiw cosl8 ftllll u.fons strange to us lhat his partizaus should have . taken from the records, as they are not in I night had indulged in a heavy load of beu set up a defence In his case w hich seemed to ! had pencil marks, as arc some duplicates of ine. lJechlel is a somewhat well-kno 11 back pay. . OrrosmoH to the New Constitu tion. Our neighbor of tbo Harrlsburg Telegraph is opposed to tho new Constitu tion, and assigns Bomo reasons for that opposition tliat we cons.dcr un tenable. But what wo deem worse is, that ho qdbtes from tho Selinsgrovo Times iu the support of bis opposition. This is bad policy, to say the least, in a respecta ble Itcpublicau journal. The Times has reason for opposing tho new Constitution that our neighbor of tho Telegraph would novcr think of cudorsiug. Tho Times never manifested much regaid for either tho old State Constitution or that of tho general government. During the rebellion its sym pathies were cutirely with Southern Con stitutions and the Confederate government. Tho new Constitution being moro liberal than the old, imposing more restrictions on corporations, and being more democratic in tho representation of tho people, would naturally meet with opposition from that class of Democrats who prefer tho Demo cracy of the Calhoun school to that of Jef ferson, or tho government of the few to the government of tho many. But a more serious objection urged by tho Times is that the new Constitution re cognizes a Supremo Bi'ing, by adding to the preamble of the old Constitution the fol lowing words : "Grateful to Almighty God for the bless ings of civil and religious liberty, and hum bly invoking His guidance," &c. That this recognition of God should bo distasteful to that class of inlidels and un believers, to which the editor of the Times professes to belong, is not surprising, but it is surprising that they should make such objections public iu a Christian communi ty. But what is still moro absurd is that these same unbelievers assert that this re cognition of the Almighty in the new Con stitution is a declaration in favor of a union of Church and Slate. A moro villainous or absurd conclusion could not be drawn. We venture totay, that in this whole com munity, embracing every denomination of Christians, not one individual can bo found in favor of such a proposition. Surely those iu favor or "civil and reli gious liberty" should not object to its in corporation in the Constitution, cveu though they refuse to recognize God as ru Iit of tl" universe. The New Constitution. The Village licrord, in an article pointing out a number of defects in the New Constitution, and also setting forth the advantages to bo derived from the reforms made, winds it up as fol lows : "These amendments nro of Urn utmost importance. Their effect will be to check the tido of official corruption which has Seemed for a time to bo sweeping every thing before it, and to threaten the very existence of our free institutions. The de- i fects in the new Constitution are trivial in ' comparison with the advantages which will accrue to public morals and to the public weal, by the provisions made to procure a j purer administration of affairs iu ihose branches of the government most exposed to demoralizing aud corrupting iullueuecs." Such seems to be the opinion throughout the State with but few exception. While we all would prefer that the defects should not exist, still as a whole, we consider it far superior to the old Constitution, and there ! fore we recommend its adoption. Our read 1 crs must bear iu mind that the vote will be ' taken ou it on Tuesday, December ltilh. As tho King calculator did not furnish his figures iu time for last week's issue of , the JJauovrat, the wood cuts not yet hav ing arrived, the editor makes the following apology : 'It will take us two weeks to correct the Aniericun,n ligurus last week and to under stand the labored article of over a column iu connection with the figures. We cannot answer his article, therefore, till next week. In the meantime wc will prepare a table of finance that ho cannot help understand." We expect this week the Demwral to be ctnbcllifdicd wilh wood cute explaining how the Riug didn't steal money ; but as Rrick Poinroy. that model Democrat says, "tiui- ply how they committed a few "irreguhiri- ii,.u n i'. o..., vi.,...i.. .. .,;ii.... ... .,! itu i v uuiuuui i ii aiiui iu n.i ! tax collectors. , . , .

It is uow iu order for those Democratic papers which, iu commou with the Kepub licau press, have deuouueed the back-pay salary grab, to place ou record their views concerning tho action of the Democratic Congressional caucus held at Washington ou Saturday, whereat a resolution favoiing the repeal of the bill was voted down by a two-thirds majority. It will be mighty in teresting readiug. Ou Thursday evening, a few minutes be fore 7 o'clock, three intoxicated men named Gabriel Kas, Anders Nas and J. llell.sirotn, of I'iuluud, Kussiu, wero luetautly killed by a passenger engine, at the west end of the Keuova yard, near the freight depot. About three years ago a coal bauk was set ou tire witluu the limits of Ashland, Schuylkill couuty, which lias been burniug ever since, filling the air with uuhealihy and even dangerous gases. Many citizens oi Asiiiaud have been compelled to move away ou this account. United States Senator Eugene Cassorly, of California, Las resigned his seat iu the Scuate. Internal Keveuuo receipts for tho month, SG.TW.UOO aud for the fiscal year Mr. Buckingham, of Connecticut, intro duced in the Senate on Tuesday a bill to provide for free banking, au clastic cur rency and specie payments. President Buer, of San Domingo, has sent an apeal to Presideut Grant asking that tho United States establish a pro tectorate over that republic. The nomination of Mr. Willlianis for tho Chief Justiceship was read at the executive session of tho Senate on Tuesday aud laid over for future consideration. . Tub Monetary Difficulties of the World. The London Times, in itsartlclo of tho 27th of October, gives tho following explanation of the fact that there are finan cial troubles in many countries at once : It will perhaps be asked how it is' that while money, like water, has tho constant teudoncy to find a level, there can bo a simultaneous scarcity iu all tho chief places of the globe t The answer is that probably at no previous period has llicro been bo simultaneous a hoarding. , Not only has tho improvident absorption in England been beyond any former precedent, but there is reason to believe that in America, Spain aud France, from dillerent causes, the process has leen on a still more unu sual scale ; while iu Germany, although the gold coinage is gradually paid out in ex change for the old silver circulation, this silver circulation is retained by the govern ment, and practically amounts to a hoard ing of tho-wealth obtained from Franco. If there should be a return to pacific and orderly government on the Continent, a period of unsurpassed abuudauce would probably bo witnessed, tho eflecls of the American panic being certain to subside in due course ; but the sigus in France give little hope of such a consummation, aud hence, although on this side the tendency may be toward a recovery of steadiness, there can in the relations between trade and the money market be no ground ou which, for the present, calculations can be based with auy approach to certainty. An Old Man's Jovkney and sad Death. Some two or three months ngo the daughter of Patrick Lenan, residing in this place, purchased a ticket from Messrs. E. W. Conkling it Co., and sent it to her father in Ireland for him to come out to America. She had not seeu him for twenty or twenty-live years, and was anxious that he should pass the few remaining days of his life, free from the carts of this world, under her roof. lie sailed from Liverpool iu a steamer belonging to ihe lied Star Line, called the Abbottsford, the latter part of last mouth, and arrived safely at Philadel phia oil Monday the 17th inst., where ho was furnished transportation by the steam ship Co., via.

Being anxious to reach his destination, and learning that Danville was only ten miles distant, he started to walk here on the railrond track. A few milts this side of .Sunbury he accidentally fell through a trussel bridge and injured him self severely. He got up, however, ami proceeded ou his journey, leaving the track aud takingto the wagon road. After going a short distance, it seems the Injuries ln reccivud iu the fall began to take effect and he sought a neighboring house for rest and rcliof Ho was admitted and cared for but only lived A few hours. Thus, after travel ing thousands of miles to reach his kin, he died when lie had nearly accomplished his jinirney almost within sighlof his children, but without being permitted to cnpiy their filial ullcction. Being a stranger iu the neighborhood au inquest was held over his body and ho was buried in the Kline'sGrovc burying giouud. The friends, in this place, knew nothing about the circumstances, al though greatly worried that he did not ar rive, until Mr. Conkling made diligent search and elicited the facts. The body of Mr. Lenan was brought to this place and interred on Tuesday. Danville American a last tveck. Coining tueik Own Money. Mrs. Daniel Boyer, who lives iu au old house on the road leading from Washington Njuuro across Merry's Mountain, near the intersee lion of the Powel's Valley road, Jackson township, recently made information before 'Squire llawk of' Wiconisco, against Sam uel Bechtel aud George K.

A hearing in tiie case was had yesterday, and drew together quite a number of persons from Washington Njuaro and vicinity Mrs. Hoyer testified that Bechtel and Lyter were iu lite habit of coining to her house at a late hour at night aud remaining until two or three o'clock iu the morning, and that they occupied their time iu manu facturing bogus live-cent pieces.

For tho past twenty-fivo yonrs an old German woman, whoso name Is supposed to be Catharine Krohl, but who was famil iarly kuown as "Old Aunt Katrinn,'.' has occupied a building in what is kuowu as "Peel's Hollow," which is situated in the First ward ftud below Mish's farm, above Eleventh street. She was s freebooter, ns no one ever asked her for rent and no one mo lested her. Why she lived all alone in bucIi a secluded place no olio kuows. puo was m oflensives and attended to her own busi ness, and is between 70 and 80 years of age. Nono of tho people in the vicinity seem to know anything of her antecedents or her business, and no one would havo thought there was any danger of her beiug molest ed. Last eveninc word was brought to the Mayor's office that she had been brutally beaten, and was lying in a precarious con dition in the building she called her home. As Coroner Porter's wagon was away on another rrrend, Chief of Police Hoopes, Coroner Porter and Dr. G. W. lluedi, pro ceeded on foot to the locality where the old and inollensive woman was found lying ou the bed. with a bloody apron over her head, besmenred Willi filth and nlmost dead. Near the door was a pool of blood, and blood was splattered aioiiud the room. They took the door oil' tho hinges, placed her on it. and with tho assistance of other parties conveyed her to tho city liosp'tul. After cutting oil' her hair it was discovered that there were nt least live or six wounds inllictsd on her head, supposed to have been made with a boat pole with an iron end on it, which was found in close prox imity to wliere she was found. Her head was almost black from the bruises and cuts. Sim was properly washed, dressed, aud her injuries attended to. It is reported that two colored men were seen lurking in the vicinity on Wednesday, and it is supposed they are the parlies who made the attack. j What object tho assailants had in view J is hard to 'imagine. The house or hovel i was not prepossessing iu appearance, and I was iu a fearful filthy and disgusting con- dition. It was evident that the old lady' was not in nnsstFsinn of monev. or she ; would not have remained in such a seclud-1 ed spot or lived iu such an abject condition. From the position iu which she was found, in close proximity to the door, it is sup posed the assailing parties attempted to force tho door and were resisted by the old ladv on the inside. ' The pole, especially tho iron portion, ' seems to be covered wilh blood, and spots , of blood are Blattered over the wooden part.
