The major pert of it wee furnished last week, and has as doubt We this; been perused by those who intend to pot thinnesives to the anhoyarice of Siding through the PittAloot'w aphtstry, misstatements. and special plasidings. And by, the time that the reader hY get through with the portion given to. day, wit presante that theft twill be but Bs who *ill not tie toOwly to Conclude with is that the sdoeir romp. biking it al/ in ell, is wholly unworthy a Pratt. drop of the U. littats , Barring the few paragraphs devoted to the ordinary tritium op envious of the garommotit, the Mesegir is nothing more or lees than an elaborate partisan harangue—made up of the ordinary argumentation which characterises the'AMU firtad3rooo sump speeches during a pa- Onap4o-414.miichAnumi adaptod to the atmosphere of the stump, than the dignity of the Presidential 'oaks. We have neither time nor space st present to expose the idler, and demo ;ovation of the message ; nor do we suppors it ne cessary. These are No.palpable that they cannot fail to attract the attention of the intelligent read er. Mr. Polk glorifies much over, the brilliancy of thereehievearmts of our army in the Mexican War, and the enhancement of our national repo tadon In the eyes of the world—but very emeful: ly conceals the fact that all these achievements were ecoomplished under the auspices of those mesnreepirink Scorr and TAYLOR, whose genius led our &nab* to. victory under the most adverse eircurnitaiiiel, and despite the most miserable, culpable blundering of Mr. Polk and his Adminis tration. • Nothing is said of the. admission of San ta Anna into Mexico—nothing in regard to the little petty persecutions with which our Coot islander in-chinfalsvms constantly dogged, in the hope of driving them from their eornmaird--nor of the at tempt to supersede both by placing over them a mere civilian, whose only recommendation for the post was to be found in devoted partizan services —nothing of the twenty thousand lives sacrificed in the prosecution of the, war—nothing of the na tional debt incurred in Its waging—nothing of all the misery, and wretehrsdness, and crime spread broad-cast over the Union as the necessary and natural result of War, Overlooking ad these, aml dazzled by def,brilliancy of the fame which the wale assigns to successful military achievements, and the glitter of the gold mines of California, Mr. Polk, investing himself with borrowed plu mage, struts abroad in jackdsw pride, calling upon the world to look and admire--white Scary and TAY LOU, the real heroes or the war, are tan even named. Having satisfied himself with 'vain boasting" ever the glories of the war, and then very cooly proposing to blast the five territory acquired by it, 1600 mile* king by 400 wide, by surrendering it to the everlasting dominion of Human Slavery— the Presided proceeds to keel and' defend the workings of the Sub-treasury and the Tariff of '4O, by a series of arguments, the sophistry of which is so glaring that the dullest reader cannot Gal to discover it. Next follows a lengthy diatribe a. Intuit what Mr. Polk is pleased to eall the "Amer ican System"—very amply defined to emivace a !fatlonal Bank, the Protective Policy, appropria tions for Internal Improvements, a Distribution of the Proceeds of the Public Lands, and opposition to the Veto Power—all of which, the President rays, originated with a very unworthy elan of I statesmen, who bad made up their minds that the j European organisations of society were the per- 1 faction of excellence, and whose controlling mo five was the introduction of the privileged classes I of Europe into our own system—the building up of an aristocracy—and the breaking down of the, sasses ! Quite complimentary, to be sate, to Mr. Wasar and Mr. MADISON, who signed the Bret bank hills, to Mr. J rrr xx es, and Mr. MON -11014 and ,Mr. ARAMs, and Mr. JACILOOS, and the long line of distinguished men, who originated and unifiemly endorsed this same "American System." But Oa Pets lives in • very great age, and is of coarse a very great num—fully authorised to sit in judgment over the motives and serviees of the diminutive statesmen who hire preceeded him.— h is true that the President seems to think either that wow deference is due to the °pinkie of Gasses' Warturrevotr, or that 'the people some how or Other have got into 'the habit of deferring some , what to the opinions of that great man—and he accordingly enters hate a very learned argument to pave that Wsserwrvon's having signed the Bret /flak Bill don not *menet to much alter all. And how, dog; reader, do you think be gets at it. Why, Gen: Warmers, it seems, did not sign the bill without it great dcaj of deliberstiog, and only alter consulting Moine; Jefferson, Jernee Madison, Al. *sander Hamilton, and other peat lights of that age. He even requested written opinions from those statesmen, and then, &Ref availing himself of the best cognised that the Republic could furnish, and revolving the matter in his own mind for some tries: tar Um days, signed the Bill. Thelefore, writes Mr. Polk, 'because Gen. Washington de liberately signed thoSrat Bill, after mature reflec tion, and alter counselling with the ablest expoun ders of the Constiution—beeense ha did not do it rashly ind . without reflection--flurefore, the ar gument its few ref the conititutionslity of the Bank derives no weight fans the precedent fur nished by Washington !

Homy one thinks that we have mistated ur misrepresented the Pmegidettes argument, we refer him to the portion of the mes sage itself on the first page of today's piper. But we have not the time to „follow Mr. Polk . through half the points on • which his mesa'e richly deserves exposure and 'repreherusion.

Capes of Cholera still condone at the N. York quarantine, though the repute of the health offi cers show a tietidod - aiiiiriation. On Tuesday hut four new cases, without any deaths at the quarantine. A death, however, from the Cholera was reported in the City, on Tuesday,•at a house in theenwich street. Upon en examination of the premises by the sanitary committee, they were found in a very filthy condition. Orders were given for their immediate chewing. Cuire.tor the Cholera. Dr. Thomas Miller, president of the Washing board of health, has furnished, from a Con stantinople journal, for the National Intelligencer, what John Barker, former consul general of Eng land, in Egypt, claims as an infallible remedy for the choler.. It is as follows t "As soon as the vomiting and diarrhoea commence, place the legs of the patient, up tg the,knee,..in water not too hot to the touch ; throw in six or seven handfuls of course salt ; cause the legs to be rubbed violently by two persona, with both hands, open the large vein in both feet and allow the blood to flow in warm water for 12 or 20 minutes, according to the age or sex of the patient, oratage of the disease. "During this time keep the water of the same temperature that it was when the limbs were first inserted, by adding more warm water. The natural animal heat of the body will he immediately restored and felt; the patient will commence at once speaking, and asking for nourishment.- 11 prepared to resume his duties in a day or so. "Of sixty laborers attacked with cholera, whom 1 have attended, several had been suddenly seized while at work in the field, others, alter having retired in perfect health, about day-break have been aroused from sound sleep with the usual symtorns at the greatest height. Aid could rarely be ob tained under half an hoer, or an hour and a half, csornetimes six or seven hours, and in one instance ten hours had elapsed ;) still after giving this remedy a lair trial, was the cure so perfect, that th4y were en abled to. return to their labor in five or six days after the attaelt. , In mune cases the very next day, or the day after, saw them restored. "It has occurred in some rare raves, that the blrentl not flowing sufficiently at the time, tNe„ patient was bled a second time. In snt cases, the serond bleeding must take place in the arm, and not in the feet. In no case has this treatment failed. .A remarkable feature in this remedy, is the immediate and perfect re-establish ment of tho health of the patient, who, in stead of losing his strength, seems, on the contrary, to acquire it. The Difficulty In Ohio. The difficulty in the orianization of the Ohio Legislature, growing out of the bold effort of the Locoffieos to nullify the apportionment liw of last session, still continues. The Senate, alter several hundred billeting', bas succeeded in electing a Whig Speaker, a Lot:prom Work, and a Sergeant at-Arms, we believe. The rest of the officers re main to be chosen. No organixationhas been effected in the House. The Whig members meet regularly every day at the proper hour, call the roll, and adjourn foe want of a quorum. The Lueofoco members retain pos. semi= of the hall, day and night, without adjourn ment, but can do nothing kw want of ■ quorum also, The Whig members submitted a very rea sonable compromise, proposing to exclude both sets of delegates from Hamilton county until a le gal organisation should have been effected, and a legal investigation of the claims made.

The Reading papers, (horn which we gather the anftexid fad' in Mil lion to his 'wait) Intimate Met this robbery was committed by Smith while an hie way to this county. The trunk was found on Sunday the 28th ult., in a wood near the plate where the rotfoery had been committed. Next day (Monday) Smith came aftetii, claiming it as hie own, and attempt ed to carry it of by force. But the man who found it had heard Atha robbery, and would nbt give him up; bqt weeded Smith and took him before a Justice of the'Peace in the township, who after anamsminstion committed him to the eon ty prison to await a trial. Mr. Hoover visited the prisodon Tuesday evening, and there recognised Smith, as the person' who formerly lived with Mr. Fatter. He accordingly went berme Alderman Betz. and having Made the required oath, obtain ed a search warrant, with which he proceeded ear ly on Wednesday morning, to the house of the prisoner, in Pearl street, accompanied by John L. Morris, High Constable cif Reeding. Thera they found a coat and pantaloons, said to belong to Smith, with the marks of blood upon them in sev en! places; and also the mining dint of the mar. dered maws property, with several spots of blood wp• es it. in a brown paper wrapper, also marked with blood. The charge of murder was at once brought against the prisoner, and on Wednesday at 2 rv.' clock, P. M., he wan taken before Alderman Bets. for a hearing The examination was conducted entirely in German, as Smith does not understand or Speak English. He expressed some surprise upon hearing that he was charged with murder, in addition to the other crime for which he was in custody, and denied all knowledge or participation in the.affair. He said that he had lived at Ar rendetown, about four years ago, with ■ fellow countryman, whom ho knew by the name of Fritz, where he followed his occupation of weaver; but declared that he had not been io that neighborhood since. He accounted for his absence from Read ing, by saying that he left home on Thursday, the 23d nit, for the purpoeo of visiting some German acquaintances beyond Lancaster ; and stated that he had elepi at night, going and returning, at Farmers' houses on the road. He came home on Sunday night. The coat and pantaloons`found in his house, were shown him, and he said they were his ; but professed to be ignorant how the blood came upon them, unless from his nose, which he Mated bled frequently. He denied any knowledge of the deed, and said that surh a paper had never been in his possession, or in his house, to his knowledge. He did not know what it was, could not read it, and declared that he never maw it in possession of Fritz, when he lived with him This was the substance of the examination, omit ting several irrelevant matters. The prisoner did nut evince much concern during the first part of his examination, and answered the questions put to him without hesitation; but when lite deed was brought forward, with his clothing, and the blood pointed out upon them, a marked change was observed in his countenance ; his hands trem bled when he took hold of them, his answers were given less readily, and several times contradicted his previous statements. Mr. Hoover and Mrs. Rebecca Loner, a female who lives in the same house Smith and his wife occupied, were also examined Mr. Hoover testi fied to the finding of Foster's dead body, se before described, and the discovery of thedeed and bloody clothing, at Smith's house, as we have shove sta ted. He identified the deed es the one belonging to Foster. Mrs. Loner tee/rifled that Smith left his home on Tuesday, the 21st ult., without inform ing any one where he was going; that he return ed on Sunday evening, and exhibited the deed to his wife and her. As neither of them could read English, they asked Mrs. 1.. to read it for them. She did so, and afterwards told his wife to put it away, as it could not belong to him. She did not I then notice the blood upon it. She saw him come in, on Sunday evening, and shook hands with him. It was also learned from one of the prisoners in the Jail, that Smith had exhibited to hint a re ceipt, dated Nov. 24, 1848, signed by Wm. Good ridge, a transportation agent at York, for a bag placed in his care, marked "Frederick Smith, Read. ing," to be delivered in Philadelphia at the Read ing Railroad Depot.. This bundle was rent for and opened at Reading. In it were found the cloth and trimmings for an overcoat, together with cloth and trimmings for another coat, with several pieces of caiminet, silk, buttons, &c., all of which ,were recognized as articles known to have been in rooter', house, previous to the murder, and since missing. The facts, although amounting to nothing more than circumstantial evidence, were deemed auffi• ciently strong to authorise the commitment of the prisoner, to answer the charge of murder, and he was accordingly given into the custody of the Sheriff, to await proper legal process from Ad ams county.

Reduction of Portage. On Monday, in the Hann,' Mr. Ooggin, Trom the Committee on Pest Office end' Post Raids, reported his bill to reduce the Mee of postage on letters and newspapers, &c. which was read twice end rehired to the Committee of the wholC by a vote of 77 to 47. Ties bill, it is said, contains the following provisions : Sec. I. For all letters, (any distance) of half an Ounce or less, uniform postage of 3 cents, to be prepaid, on depositing in office , and so doable that raw fur each Ittlf ounce or fraction thereof. Sec. 2. On all newspapers over 1900 square inches, for all distances, the uni• form rate of one cent. On all such pa pers over 500 and under 1900 square inch es, the - unifbrnt - rate ()Chair a cent; Under 500 square inches, one-fourth of a cent, which shall be paid by publishers or sub scribers in advance for each quarter of the See. 4. Printed or lithographed ciren 'are, handbills, &c., sent from the office where printed, to pay one cent. Sec. 4. When not sent front the office, such circulars, &0., to pay 2 cents—so of transient newspapers. Sec. 5. All pain phlets, magazines, peri odicals, &c., to pay 2 cents, of no greater weight than once ounce, and one cent ad ditional foreaeh half ounce or fraction. This is batter than the present system, but does not go quite ikir enough. We trust that the bill of Mr. Qoggin will be so amended as to restore the.provision which authorized newtopspens to cir culate free of postage within the county in ah.ch they are printed. rirln the C.

Slavery hi the Terrltorlem. The Slave question, as connected with the new Territories, is already before Congress. We do not think, however, that any thing definite will be accomplished this winter. The demote is pro slavery, and the House decidedly anti-slivery, with but poor prospects of their getting together. Mr. Douglama has reported his Bill to the Sen ate, which proposes to evade the difficulty by e recting New Mexico and California into one vast State, to be admitted into the Union immediately, leaving to the people of the new State the respon sibility of determining the Slavery• question. It is said, however, that the bill dam not meet with much favor even in the Senate. On Wednesday, :Jr. Benton presented a rce- Morita from • Convention of the people of New Mexico, praying for the establishment of a Terri torial Oovernment, and staking the prohibition of Slavery in the Territory. Mr. Calhoun pronoun ced the memorial insolent and insulting to the South, and raised the question of its reception.-- A warns and spicy debate ensued, in which Messrs. Benton, Calhoun, Clayton, Foote, Rusk, West cult, and Halo participated. The petition was finally received by a vote of 33 to 14, referred to the Committee on Territories, and ordered to be printed. In the House, on the same day, Mr. Root, of Ohio, offered • Resolution instructing the Coss, mitten Oa Territories to report bills for territorial governments in New Mexico end California, ex cluding slavery.
