TllK Message. I accordance with the j brows o u :. tit-xlect to enllivr.t heir
demands of the constitution the President minds, nor think for themselves wh pro
submitted his message io congress, on j blems are most correct to advnneeilied
Monday afh rnixn last, which was furnish-I economy on which tin ir prosper! de
cd to our readers on Wednesday in an j pends. The ,ii,.wr says :

The Piesideut, legardiug the finance
question of most importance ami touches
upon it liit. He holds to his hard money
opinions with characteristic tenacity. lie
repeats to some extent the principles enun
ciated in his veto at the last session of Con
gress, of the "Inflation Bill." lie deplores
what all concede, yet cannot avert the fact
that the great burden of our financial dis
tress falls upon the working meu. As a
luiinint iui iiiL-at: trviia ue recommends .
lt. The repeal of the legal tender act, to
take ctTect at some fixed time, with certain
restrictions. The redemption by the Sec
retary of the Treasury in specie to be ob
tained by increasing the revenue, rid. By
the passage of a free banking law, which
he regards as essential, and by means of
which he believes the volume of currency
in the country will adjust itsdf to the busi-!
n; ss necessities.
Considering all things, the recommenda-'
t ions to Congress are not likely to work !
much liana. The President's earnestness
cannot le doubted, but ti establish a na- j
tional cuircnry upm a gold and silver ;

In fact, earnest as the President unques- !
tiouably is. in what he says upon the mat-;
ter of our tinances, is weak in argument, I
and, worse than that, contradictory to j
himself, and he is only too apparently all ,
at si-a as to any short, sure road out of the '
foggy muddle of his own financial views. '

A liispatch from Washington informs us of
unpleasant fact that intelligence had been
received there that the new detuoeiatio
code of .corgia as lately r.m-n.led contains
a provision designed to servo 'he same pur- :
pose as the hill just past I by the lexa ;
J-gislature. It is claimed that under this '
law a hlack man may be taken lorci- j

Upon the question of IarilT,lhe secretary,
without entering upon a discussion, says
that at present it is only necessary to treat
it purely a a question of revenue, and not
one cither of protection or free trade. In
the interest of business he docs not think
any changes should be hastily made, and
if congress, desires to revise the present
rates lie recommends that a commission be

There has U:en Tor some time trouble
brewing bttween the Taxnavers Asneia- I
tion and citizens and county official.. The
shcritrwas acting without, le-al bond, and
the Board of M.pervisors refused to order
a new one, although the time for paying
taxes bad arrived.
Two or three other oilicials were under
indictments for forgery ami embezzlements,
and the citizens, despairing of any relief
from partis iu courts, held a meeting last
Wednesday, ant! in a hotly proceeded to the
court house to demand the resignation of
the sheriff, tin; chancery's clerk, treasur
er and coronet. All tied except Sberitl
Crosby, a in lto. and he signed his resigna
tion. Ou .Mturtlay a card appeared on the
streets, signed "Crosby,'- calling on all citi
zens of Warren county, Kepublicans, while
I and black, to come to his aid and support
' him in his position. Crosby, publicly aud
through tht; papers, denied the authorship
of the caul, yet this morning armed bodies
of negroes appeared, advancing on the rity
, , . , J
from thtlerent directions.

o'clock, and the citizens gathered ;( iios.-v.
