THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.
The Special correspondent of the X. Y. Tri
bune, writing from nasningion, under date ol
Thursday, March 6, 1862, says :
'The Message from the President to-day is
perhaps tbe most important document ever
addressed to Congress, and one of the most
important in history. Though reserved and
moderate in terms, it distinctly proposes to
"initiate emancipation." Such a proposition
from the Chief Magistrate must be historic.
From this time forward the great question
passes away from the keeping of speculators
and philanthropists into that of cabinets and
statesmen. It cannot be nut aside. One
early effect will bo the creation of an emanci
pation party in the Border States devoted to
the Union, rendering the efforts of Secession
ists there hopeless. It is known that several
of the largest slave-owners in the Border
States have given in their adhesion to this
project in advance, and are now very anxious
for its adoption. The warning of tho Presi
dent to the Rebels that if the war goes on, "all
the incidents of war are to be employed, even
if they cause ruin," will oe understood at once
to mean that Slavery must cease to exist when
it stands in the way of humanity and the Re
public. The friends of Freedom here are
much elated, and all of us anticipate that the
good cause will be quickened throughout the
countiy. The Message being received in the
Senate while in the Executive Session, was
not read aloud by the Clerk. It was shown
around, and passed from hand to hand. Its
reception by the Senators was electric.
The latest advices from Paris wholly enti
tied to consideration, state the keystone of
the Lmperor'a policy is the English alliance;
anil that he will do nothing to weaken this. It
is important that this should be borne in mind
by those who hastily thinii that France mav
bo detached from England in her relations to
our dealing with the slaveholders' rebellion.
But happily all tilings surely indicate that nei
ther of these powers is disposed to interfere
The President's Message of to-day makes this
interference absolutely impossible. The Mes
sage of the President is regarded among the
Foreign Ministers as an epoch and calculated
to produce a profound impression in Ltirope.
It will be the subject of dispatches from all
the Legations by Saturday's steamer."
A Sharpshooters' Dlel. A distinguished
duel occurred on tiie battle field of r ort Don
elson, between one of Colonel Birge's slwrp-
shooters nnd a crack shot inside the enemy's
fortifications. Tho Federalist was stationed
on a lull adjoining the entrenchments, and at
an early hour in the morning the secession foe
placed his rule on a parapet, and fired a ball
through the Unionist's hat. The sharpshooter
returned his fire, received a second shot, and
sent anotner ; ana troni tliat time until 4 o -
clock in the afternoon the two continued dis
charging their pieces without injuring one
another. Both tired accurately ; but both con
cealed their persons as much as possible, and
endeavered to deceive each other by putting
ttieir hats on their ramrods, and thrusting
their coats from behind the fortifications or
the trees. Whatever was exposed almost in
variably received a bullet ; but the two were
so wary and skilful that it seemed they might
fire until doomsday without danger to either.
About the hour I have mentioned, however,
the rebel, forgetful of prudence, thrust his
head over the breastworks, thinking, no doubt,
as his enemy had not fired for five minutes,
that he might be dead. The movement was
fatal. His head was not exposed five second.",
but in that Urief period the sharpshooter's ball
passed into tho rebel's brain, and stretched
him out a corpse before the unfortunate fellow
had been able to determine where his enemy
was lurking, or by whose hand he was destin
ed to fall.
What a Southerner Understands an Abo
litionist to be. The prisoners taken at Fort
Donelson are composed mainly of the poor
whites, whom slavery has kept in profound
ignorance', and who have been deceived bv the
designing slave masters. A correspondent
gives the following examples:
One man thought our army was composed of
"niggers aud Genn.i.us." Another had a
vague idea that they were some sort of non
descripts. "Why," said he, '-I thought your
folks was all Yankees and abolitionists. But
I see 'em there on the field, and they look
mighty nateral, and I looked over thar, and
saw Mnother, and, by , they were ail just
like our kind o'folks dawg-gone it."
Now, it is evident that to this man the
terms of "Yank e" and "abolitionist" meant
a creature with horns, hoofs and a tail, spew
ing fire and brimstone out of his mouth, and
impaling unlucky rebels upon his caudal ex
tremity.
Tilghman's Request. Tilghman has ex
pressed a desire to be hung on Bunker Hill.
The Boston Transcript says: There was a
smart though pleasant retort of words between
Gen. Tilghman. of the rebel army and United
States Marshal J , who conducted him to
Fort Warren. The General told the Marshal
that he should like to see Bunker Hill. When
the steamer which carried off the prisoners to
the fort had got so far oflTrom the shore that
Bunker Hill monument loomed up in the dis
tance in all its 'majesty, the rebel General
looked at it. and said that if he was to be exe
cuted, he should like to be hanged from that
spot, "lour request cannot be allowed,"
said the Under-Marshal, "the ground upon
which that monument was erected has been
consecrated to freedom. General Warren fell
there it is no place for you." The southern
General did not pursue the conversation any
farther.
Wiut Bcckner Says. The Albany Eve
ning Journal tens mis story or me reoei gen
eral: "General Buckner, in the course of a
conversation with a distinguished gentleman
of this city, unbosomed himself with a refer
ence to the battle of Bull Hun as follows :
"That battle was a most unfortunate thing for
the South and a most fortunate thing for
the North." "Nothing," said the great rebel,
"has more vexed me than the apathy of the
southern people. The effect of the battle re
ferred to was to inspire the southerners with a
blind confidence and lull them into false secu
rity. The effect upon the northerners, on ths
other hand, was to arouse, madden aud exasperate."
A squad of Van Allen's cavalry, on the 6th,
captured six rebel pickets near Bunker Hill, Va.
DIED:
On Friday evening the 7th inst., at the res
idence of her father, John Moore, Sr., near
Clearfield, of pulmonary consumption, Mar
garet G. E. Moore, in the 23d year of her age.
A devout member of the M. E.Chnrch, and
an humble follower of ber meek and lowly Sa
viour,death found her calm and resigned to His
will ready to depart and be with Him, which
is far better. In the morning of ner days sne
had given her heart to God, and in all the
bloom of early womanhood, lie took her to
dwell with Ilira forever. Her end was peace
ful and happy ber last testimony, that she
knew "Jesus loved her." Passing into that
state of insensibility which God in his mercy
sometimes sends to mitigate the pain of the
death-struggle, her spirit soon took its flight
from oarth to heaven, and she sank to rest
"As fades a summer cloud away,
As sinks the gale when storm are o'er,
As gently shuts the eye of day,
As dies a wave along the shoro "
MESSAGE FROM. THE PRESIDENT.
The President transmitted to Congress the
following message, on Thursday, March 6, 1862.
Fellow-citizens of the Senate and Honse of Rep
resentatives. -
I recommend the adoption of a joint resolu
tion by your honorable bodies, which shall be
substantially as follows : -
Resolved, That the United States ought to
co-operate with any State which may adopt a
gradual abolishment of Slaverv, giving to
such State pecuniary aid to be ustd by such
State in its discretion to compensate for the
inconveniences public and private produced
by such change of system.
If the proposition contained in the resolu
tion does not meet the approval of Congress
and the country, there is the end ; but if it
does command such approval 1 deem it of im
portance that the States and people immedi
ately interested should atoicebe distinctly
notified of the fact, so that they may begin to
consider whether to accept or reject it.
The Federal Government would find its
highest interest in such a measure as one of
the most efficient means of self-preservation.
The leaders of the existing insurrection enter
tain the hope that the Government will ulti
mately be forced to acknowledze the indepen
dence of some part of the disaffected regi.m,
and that all the Slave States north of such
parts will then say, ."The Union for which we
have struggled being already gone, we now
choose to go with the Southern section."
To deprive them of this hope, substantially
ends tho rebellion, and the initiation of eman
cipation completely deprives them of it. - As
to all the States initiating it, the point is not
that all tho States toierating Slavery, would
very soon, if at all, initiate emancipation, but
that, while the offer is equally made to all, the
more Northern shall, by such initiation, make
it certain to the more Southern, that in no e
vent will the former ever joiu the latter in
their proposed Confederacy.
I say "initiation," because, in mj judgement,
gradual, and not sudden, emancipation is
better for all. In the mere financial or pecu
niary view, any Member of Congress, with
the census tables and the Treasury reports be
foie him, cau readily see for himself how very
soon the current expenditures of this war
would purchase, at a fair valuation, all the
slaves in any named State. Such a proposi
tion on tbe part of the General Government
sets up no claim ol a right, by Federal authori
ty, to interfere with Slavery within State lim
its, referring, as it does, the absolute control
of the subject in each case to the State and
its people immediately interested.
It is proposed as a matter of perfectly free
choice with them. In the Annual Message,
last December, I thought fit to say : "The
Union must be preserved, and hence all indis
pensable means must be employed." I said
this not hastily, but deliberately. War haj
been and continues to be, an indispensable
means to this end. A practical reacknowledg
ment of the national authority would render
the war unnecessary, and it would at once cease.
If, however, resfstance continues, the war
must also continue, and it is impossible to
foresee all the iucidents which may attend,
and all the ruin which may follow it. Such
as may seem indispensable, or may obviously
promise great efficiency toward ending the
struggle, must and will come.
The proposition now made, though an offer
only, I hepe it may be esteemed no offense to
ask whether the pecuniary consideration ten
dered would not be of more value to the States
and private persons concerned, than are the
institutions nnd property in it, in the present
aspect of affairs.
hile it is true that the adoption of the pro
posed resolution would be merely initiatory,
and not within itself a practical measure, it is
recommended in the hope that it would soon
lead to important results. In full view of my
great responsibility to my God and to my
Country, I earnestly beg the attention of Con
gress and the people to the subject.
Abraham Lincoln.

IJROSPKCTUS OF THE CONTINEN
TAL MONTHLY There are periods
in the world's history marked by extraordinary
and violent crises, sudden as the breaking furta
of a volcano, or the bursting of a storm ou the
ocean. Those crises t-weep away in a moment tha
landmarks of generations. They call out fresh
talent, bnd give to the old new direction. It id
then that new ideas are born, new theories devel
oped. Such periods demsud fresh exponents, and
new men for expounders.
This Continent has lately been convulsed by
an uphenving bo nudden and terrible that tbe re
lations of all men and all classes to each other ar
violently disturbed, and people look about forth
elements with which to sway the Btorm and di
rect the whirlwind. Just at present, we do cot
know what all this is to bring forth ; but we do
know that great results must flow from su-h ex
traordinary commotions.
At a juncture so solemn and so important, ihere
is a special need that tho intellectual force of tho
country should bo active and efficient. It id a
time for great minds to ppcak theirthoughU bold
ly, and to take posit ion as the aivacct; guard. To
this end, there is a special want unsupplied. It'is
that of an Independent Magasine. which hall be
open to the first intellects ef the land, and which
shall treat the issue presented, and to be presented
to tho country,iu aloue ufj way tempered by par
tizauship, or influenced by fear, faver or the hope
of reward , which' fchall sciio and grapple with,
the momentous subjects thatthe preseut disturbed
state of affairs heave to the eurfaje, aud which
can not be laid asf le cr neglected.
To meet this want, the undersigned have com
menced, under tbe editorial charge of Charles G
Leland, the publication of a new Magaiino, devot
ed to l-iiteratnrc and Natioual Policy.
I n Politics, it will ad.-ocate, with all the force
at its command, measures host adapted to preserve
the oneness and integrity of these United State.
It will never yield to the idea of auy disruption
of this Republic, peaceably or otherwise; and it
willdiscuss with honesty and impartiality what
must be done to save it. In this department, some
of the most eminent statesmen of th time will con
tribute regularly to its pages.
In Literature, it will be suittained by the best
writers and ablest thinkers of this country.
Among its attractions will be nresentcd. iu an
early number, a' New Serial of American Life."
by Richard Kimball, Esq , the very popular author
of "The Revelations of Wall Street,"' -St. Leger,"
ic. A series of papers by Hon. Horace Groely,
embodying the distinguirhed author's observation -on
the trrowth and development of the (treat
West. A series of articles by the author of
'Through the Cotton States,"-contaning the re
sult of an extended tour in the) seashore Slave
States, just prior to the breaking out of the war.
andpresenting astartliug and truthful picture of
tno real condition of that region. No pains will
be spared to render tho literary attractions of th
Continental both brilliant and substantial The
lyrical or descriptive talents of tho most eminent
litarati have been promised Ut itd pagf3 I and
nothing will bo admitted which will not be dis
tinguished by marked energy, originality, and
solid strength. Avoiding every influeuce or as
sociation partaKing of clique or coterie, it will bo
open to all contributions of real merit, even from
writers differing materially in their views ; the
only limitations required being that of devotion
to,thc Union, and the only stitdard of acceptance
that of intrinsic excellence.
The Editorial Department will embrace, in ad
dition to vigorous and fearless comment on the
events of the times, genial gossip with tbe reader
on all current topics, and also devote abundant
space to those racy specimens of American wit and
humor, without which there can be do perfect ex
position of our national character Among thoo
who will contribute regularly to this department
may be mentioned tho name of Charles F. Browno
(Artemus Ward), from whom wo 6ball present m
the March number, the first of an entirely new and '
original scries of '-Sketches of Western Life " .
Tho Co.vti.nektel will ba liberal and progres
sive, without yielding chimeras and hopes be
yond tho grasp of the age ; aud it will endeavor
to reflect the feeling and interests of the Ameri
can people, and to illustrate both tbelr seriouaand
humorous peculiarities. In short, no pains will
be spared to make it the Representative Magaiino,
of the time.
TERMS : Three dollars per year, in advance
(postage paid by the Publishers ;j Two copies for
S5 ; Three copies for S9, (postage unpaid); Eleven
copies for 20, (postage unpaid). Single numbers

servioe, on application beiug made by iu Colonel
or Chaplain : he will also receive subscriptions
from those desiring to furnish it to soldiers in the
