On the Oih of June last, in violation of our neutrality laws, a military e*p«- dition and enterrrise against the British North American Colonies was projected trnd attempted to be carried en within the teiritory and jurisdiction of tlreUiii ted States. In obedience to the .obliga tion imposed upon the Kxceotkre by the Constitution, to Bee that the laws are faithfully executed, aU citizens were warned, by proclamation, against taking part in or aiding such unlawful proceed ings. and tho pmper civil, military, and (lficeis (lficeis were directed to take all neee sat/ .measures for the enforcement o) the luws. The expedition failed, but it has not been without its paiulul conse quences. Some of our citizens who, it was alleged, weic engaged in the expe dition, wero captured, and have been brought to trial, as for a capital offense, in the Province of Canada, Judguieat aud senteuce of death have been pro -11 lunced ngainst some, while other have been acquitted. Fully believing in the maxim of government that severity of civil punishment for misguided persons who have engaged in revolutionary at tempts wh ch have disastrously failed, is unsound aud unwi-e, such representa tions have been made to the British (Jov ernment, in behalf of the convicted per sons, as. being sustained by an enlight» ered and humane judgarent, will, it is hoped, i iducc in their cases an exercise of clemency, and a judicious amnesty to all who wie engaged in the movement Counsel has been employed by the Gov. ernment to defend citizens of the Unite 4 States on tiial lor capital offenses in t 'an uda; and a discontinuance of the prose cutions which were instituted in the Courts of the United States against th ose who took pint iu the expedition, has been directed. I have regarded the exjediton as not only | ' litieal iu its naiute, but as also in a grant ineasute foreign from ihe United States iu its-causes, character,und ol jects. Ihe attempt wus understood to be made in sympathy with an insurgent poity in Irelitni, and, by striking at a Ikitiah Pro\ ince on this Continent, was designed to aid in obtaining red I ess for political grievances which, it wus assnmed, the people ot Ireland had suffered at the bands Of the British Goverumeut during a period of several centuries, 'lhe per sons engaged iu it were chiefly uauves of that country, scuie of whom hud, while others had not, become citizens of the 'United Slates under our general laws ol uatniulization. Complaints til juisgov eTti-ment iu Ireland continually engage the attention ol the iiritish nation, and so great an agitation is now prevailing in Ireland that the Hritish Government have denned it nee'ssary to suspend the writ of ImOrut njrpus iu that country. These circumstances must necessarily modify the oniniou which we might otherwise have entertained with regard to an ex jeditiou expressly prohibited by our neutrality laws. So long us tho»e laws remain uponourstutute books, they should 'be faithfully .executed, aud if they ope rate haishly, unjustly or oppressively.— Congress alone can -pply tlve remedy, by their modification or repeal. Political and Commercial interests of the I'nited States are not unlikely ti be affected in some degree by events which are transpiring in the eastern regions ot Europe, and the time seems to have eume when our Government ought to have a proper diplomatic representation in Grtceo. This Government has claimed for ill persons not convicted, or accused, or sua ]-feted of crime, an absolute political rightof self expatriation. u ud a choice of iH-w national allegiance. Most of the Euiopeau States have dissented from this principle, and have claimed a right to hold fuch of their subjects as have im migrated to and been naturalized in the 1 nited States, and afterwards returned on transient visits to their native coun tries, to the performance of military ser» vie in lil.e manner as resident subjects. Complaints arising from the claim in this risj.cct made by foreign Statis, have heretofore been matters of controversy ibeiwecn the United States and some of the European Powers, and the iriitatioo con.-equetit upon the failure to settle this (jnettioti incieaf-ed during the war in whi< h I'iussia.

Kuwvce lias been equally fori-earing; and Piussia has | ropi se>l a comprniii'se, which, althouvli <evincing increased liberality, has not been accept ctl by the United States. Peace is now prevailing everywhere in Europe, aud the pic-en: seems to be a favorable time f>r an assertion by Congiess of the princi ple, so long maintained by the Executive l)e) artment, that naturalization by one Stale fully exempts the native bom sub» jeet of any other Sti.ie from ihc perform ance.

It gives, in -a nutshell, all that is really contained iu this State document: The annual Message of President Johnson to Congrtss is abiief aud U-CHl erately toned uooutnent. it 0| ons with a re I ere nee to the abatement of the pes tilence, the proclamation ut peace, and the restoration of the civd authority in the lately insurg-nt districts. He says, what many of our readers will think a rather stung expression under all the circumstance*, that the enforcement ol the laws is no longer obstruct .d, though we join with him in sayiug that an en tire restoiatiou of fraternal feeling must be the earnest wish of every patriotic heart. The President succinctly recupi tulates the leading eveuts of his recon struction. and expresses regret that the members of Congress from the Slates he has roconstited have not been recognized by either Hiiuse. lie goes over much the same arguments as heretofore on the subject, 'ihe excessive uuxisty of the President to secure seats lor his rebel frieuds leads him into an argument to show that these States have becu repeat edly during the war and since the war recognized as States by all brauches of the Government, Con.ress included, aud it is rendered manifest that his views Ipive uudergoue no change at all iu con scqueuee of the disastrous failure of his atlempt to dragoon Congress aud d-jfeat the Republican* ii the popular elections. The 1 n uate of the President iscuur teous anu good tempered throughout, in striking contrast with offensive tone of hi«t>pe«ehes,but his positions are through out the same -and be insinuites adroitly a centralizing, usurping, aud uucoustitu tin il p i.icy i b tli# part of I'ougiujs— f roui ilits portion of the message it is clear that all the effort* tjget Up a tiuee between the Piesiuent aud Cougress have tailed, that he has not advanced a single step towaid conciliation, and that his professions to members were wholly de c -ptive. He com sends to Congress the senti me.its expressed in the Treasury Report and culls attention to the necessity of car rying into every department of the Gov criimeut a system ol ligid accountability, thorough retrench me nt aud wise eeouomy and he adds that with no unu-ual or cx <eeptima « d lures the oppressive bur thens oi taxation can be lessened by a modification of tile revenue laws. Dur ing a period of fourteen months the Na tional dent has bieu reduced 61''0.379.- s(jo, instead ol its being increased 8112.- 194 1)07 as the Secretary of the Treas ury iguorantly estimated iu his lust annu al report, the receipts of the year having been $59.1R15 805 mote and the expendi tures 8200.529 235 less than he estima ted. The receipts lor the fi cul year ending June 20th. 1800, wee 658.082.- 020, and the expenditures 8520.750 90J, being » surplus ol 837.281 080, and it is estimated that the receipts lor the pres ent fiscal year will bo 8472.001.380 and the expenditures 8310 428.078, leaving a suiplus of 8158.033. 3u8, but the Sec rctaiy shot so wide of the mark last year that we ueed not attach much value to I his calculations now. Jhe President, cau see no good reasou why taxes may not be reduced us the country advances in pop ulation and wealth, and get the debt ex tinguished within the next quarter of a centurv. In the War Depaitment the message says that few volunteers now remain in the senieo, aud they are being discharg ed as rapidly as they can be replaced by regular troops. '1 he sruiy is to be furii ished with breech loading small arms.—■ Sufficient war material has been return ed to meet any emergency. Fortifications on the coast aud frontier have received more powerful armaments. I'repaia tions have been made for the payment ul the additional bounties authorized during the recent session of Congress, under such regulations as will proteet (be tiov- Cinment from fraud and secure to the hon orably discharged soldier the wull-eartied reward of his services. 'J he Navy has 110 vessels in commis sion. aud the whole naval force consists of 378 vessel* armed with 2801 guns The number of men in service is 13,600.

He slates that the Pacific Kailroad will be completed w ihin the period designa ted by Cougress. 'i he pension rolls include 126 722 per sons, involving last year a disbursement of 513.459.b96, and its estimated that $33 UUO UUU will be required for the next ti.-cal year.

VALEDICTORY. KIND READERS:—Three years has passed since the firstu-unrtier ol the CIT IZEN was issued. We were then, as a nn. t ; on. just turning the "'weather guage ol late." Lincoln had given notice that.il the insurgents did not come to terms in the meantime, he would issue a procla. mutiun of Freedom on the first ol Janu ary following. At this bold, patriotic announcement llebels snrered, Copper head? chafed, and Conservatives shook their heads in ominous silence. Always au anti-slavery man of the positive sort always dissatisfied with the manner iu which our statesmen had attempted to patch up one compromise alter another— thereby iuvitiug uew demands to be met by new cotices-ions. I hailed this nieas ure us a final -solution of nil our troubles For whatever ol legal restraint the nation haifoimcrly been under, certainly thcie could be no objections, now that the South had thrown off its constitutional guards, to the use ol the prooningknife. J For the pu-pose of taking a more jkctive 1 part in the political questions rtiat were thus forming, under the leadership of an honest, patriotic President, I determined urn the establishment of the CITIZEN.— Of what service it has been to the cause of trufh, which is the cause of progress? if liberty, its readers are the best judg es. Placing the name of our then Pres ident, Lincoln, at our mast head in the first number of our paper, we never ceas ed our effort in his behalf, until he was triumphantly re-elected. When the present incumbent ng.'endcd to his seat, n e gave him an honest support, nor did we comulain until, uy the reticeuc* of hip message of last year, on the reconstiuc tiort question, we thought we saw the germ ol treason to t'.e party that had elevated hiui to power, aud the principles he had professed to hold. Eveu then some of our readers thought we were committing a mistake. As things turned out, how ever, our apprehensions proved to bo too true. All now admit that nothing but the early at.d active influence of the loyal press of the country maintained the unity ofjthe party, and preserve i its power. For the humble part we took in this matter we have received the congratulations of o«r friends. Three years ago our party major ty was so reduced that it was with difficulty we could prevail upon our party friends to tUiuk it possible to rctuiu control.— For this it ere were good rea-ons. The progress of the war had greatly reduced the loyal vote, while the bulk of our op poueuis were still at home, ready to ap pear at the polls, in force, to vote the war atailure. All this las passed away. The ''Hoys iu liiwu v liavu returned it. force. Canadiaus are distianchised, ana our couuiy is able ouce more to loot up au old faslnoued majority of between five and six hundred. If, during this important period in our history, we, as au liuiuble journalist, aid ed iu the cousummatiun of the satisfae» tory results to which we have just refer red, we will ever feel proud ttiat it was our lot to serve thus the cause of truth. There is ouc subject .u which we have felt a deep iutcrest, iu the consummation ol whicii we have nut beeu so suecesslul as was to be desiied. 1 refer to the re tuoUeliiij; of our j>oor laws, so that we could make arrangement* for the care an comfort of the destitute. We had hoped that the people of the couuty would have availed themselves of the tuud to be di veiled from the "Old Academy"—being near five thousand dollars, as we believe, indeed the public mind seemed to have settled in ibis ditection. l{ut no action was taken, and the gotdeu opportunity* was allowed to p-iss. The fuud bas been transferred to .another, and, as 1 believe, less meritorious object. All the satisfaction left (or me, now that the chill blasts of winter are remind ing us of the prospective suffering of the destitute, is that 1 done my duty in en deavi ring to direct public attention to the stern calls of hutnauity, and to still indulge the hope that the subject may be .kept Wore Uw people till action is had, and not -only the neitsaities, byt tf>e comftris of the poor cared for. With these reflections upon onr mind,' it is indeed with sadness that we an nounce to our readers that our relations to them, as owner aud editor of the CIT IZEN, has terminated with the end of th» third volume! We never intended to abandon tbe le gal profession for any other permanent business, and we find it impossible, white managing a paper, to .fceaUe to gi»e that •tndy'*nd attentiou tu legal matter* that they demand. For this reason aioue hare we made up our miud to forego tlw agree table relations whicfk, »s editor of the CITIZEN, we hare maintained with our political friends in time past. While we thus announce our writH-' draws! with tegret, it is quite a consola tion to be able to announce that it has parsed into the hunds of our personal and political friend Major 0. K. *NDIRBON, whose favorable acquaintance with our people as well as his thorough knowledge of the business, and his acknowledged ability, is a sore guarantee of the success of the CITIZEN in his hands. We trust that lot only for his own sake, but for the sake of the principles the CITIZEN has always advocated,%e may be liberally sustained. Having always allowed, whatever of leeling might have arisen during the heat of a political campaign, to die with it, we have no complaints to make, nor have we any apologies io offer. Uetaiuing, therefore, malice towards none, but charity for all, we remain Yours, truly, TFLOS. KOBINSON. NiUTATOUI. In taking charge of fhe CITIZEN, we feel "(that we have taken upon us a res ponsibility, which we shall endeavor to discharge to the very best of our ability. We are well awire of the fact, that, to picase everybody, is an impossibility.— We shall,nevertheless,labor to please,grat ify, and so fur as wcare able, to c*listen our readers.

C E. ANDERSON. * Congrrsi*, Very little of importance has as yet been transacted by this body. A tew days are always necessary to perfect an organization, in appointing and arrang ing the different committees. We are informed by our exchanges that the dilTcrent committees are busily engaged in blocking out work for the session. A committee of three has been ap pointed to investigate the New Orleans massacre. It is also announced that the House intends to appoint a special com mittcc to investigate the uiurdor of Dr. Robinson in .Salt Luke, and other Mor mon outrages. The Reconstruction committee ha* been revived, with Thadeus Steveus as chairman. It was stated a few days since that hlte Supreme Court had promulg ted a de. cree against the constitutionality of the test oath. This is incorrect. It has only acted upon i rule dispensing with it, but such a decision miy hereafter be announced. tfciT Both the I'risg and Republican of Kit'anning, declare CURTIN the c 1 ic o Armstrong county for Senator. We have ouirelf, seen a great many citizens of that county, and all declare the same thing. This eounty for hiin, and our Senatorial District, is a unit ou the Sen atorial question. REOROANIZATION AT THK SoUTH.— The unsatisfactory Condition of affairs at the South, says the N. Y. Times, is es tablished by the reports of the military comtuaoders stationed there, To many of the statements emanating from that section, respecting outrages upon freed* uicn and other evidence of aversion to Federal control, we have paid little atten tion, believing that they were colored, if not iuvented for partisan purposes. Hut to the representations made by our mili tary authorities in the Southern States no suspicion can possibly, atiach. What ever be their opinions on ix>jutroverted political questions, at any rate they Are responsible and impartial. They enjoy the well earned confidence of the loyal people of the land, aud their averments wili undoubtedly be accepted as conclu sive on questions of fact. PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENTB.—A .
