"The Prcsidcstl's HIoas:i;?e.
This annual document of the Chief Magistrate
of the Union, was submitted to both Houses of
Congress on Wednesday last. In our opinion it
is a very ordinary affair twice as long as neces
sarvand by no menns as well written as some
of its predecessors. The most of it is occupied
with a recital of our foreign relations, and a state
ment of the condition of the several departments
of State. It is remarkable inasmuch as it con
tains but four recommendations to Congress. The
first, is a modification of the defects in the new
Tariff act, and an alteration in the mode of col
lecting the revenue arising from duties, by adopt-in"-
the Warehousing System, as it is called. The
second, is an increased appropriation of nearly a
million of dollars to the expenses of the Navy, to
support a squadron on the Coast of A frica, and to
nurchase a stock of clothing for sailors and ma
rines. The third, is the adoption of thelExchcquer
Plan, as rcco mmended by him last winter. And
the fourth, is the re-imburscmcntof the one thous
and dollar fine, imposed upon General Jackson,
by Judge Hall, at New Orleans, during the late
War. This is the sum tota1 of all which John
Tvler deems necessary for Congress to do for the
good of the Country. The whole tenor of the
Message is calculated to create the impression that
the country is in a happy and prosperous condi
tion. Nothing can be further from the truth than
this. The country was never in a more deplora
ble situation than it has been during the past year,
tind is at this time. We give the Message entire,
however, in to-days paper, so that our readers can
see for themselves, and form their own opinions.
,
Congress. !
On Monday a week, was the day for the annual
convening of Congress and at 12 o'clock the
Members of both branches met in their respec- j
tive Halls. In the House 175 members an
swered to their names, more than sufficient to
constitute a quorum, but in the Senate, only 24
members were present, not a quorum. No busi
ness was therefore transacted in either House.
On Tuesday, a quorum of Senators still being
wanted, nothing was done in either branch. On
Wednesday, however, three additional Senators
appeared and took their scats, and the business of
the Session was taken up. The Presidents Mes
sage was received and read, and a large number
jo( copies, with the accompanying documents, or
dered to be printed. A number of motions were
made by different members, among which was one
by Mr Adams, of the House, to repeal the Rule
prohibiting the reception of abolition petitions,
ond one by Mr. Bention of the Senate, for permis
sion to bring in a Bill to repeal the Bankrupt Act
At our latest accounts the standing committees
had not yet been appointed. As soon as they aie
named, we expect both Houses will proceed fo
iu siness, in real earnest.

Godev's Lady's Book having been for so long

in point of fact has been

its favour with its fair patrons has -not been less
remarkable than its perfect adaptation to their feel
ings and tastes and their requirements. In entering
upon a new year, the publisher, without diminish
ing in the least that sterling and useful Literature,
which has lone resulted from laying under contri
bution the native good sense and-elegant fancy of
our American Female Writers, will, as eacli suc
cessive number appears, present, iu tjie several de

a constant and ever-varying succession of new and
striking features. Nor does ho promise without
ample ability to perform. The best literary talent,
Ihe best efforts of the most distinguished artists in
the country and to crown as well as to adorn the
whole, the most perfect arrangements for- the re
ception of the
AMERICAN, LONDON, & PARtS FASHIONS,
far in advance of any other publication in this
country, enable him to assure the patrons of the
Lady's Book, that the forthcoming volume will
more than justify its well-earned title of the Maga
zine of Magazines for the ladies of our country.
Our list of foreign contributors is enriched with
the distinguished names of
Joanna Baillie, Maria Edgworth,
Mary Russell Mitford, Hon Mrs C Norton,
Mary Howitt, Lady Blessington,
and others, recognized m Europe as the elite of
British female authors.
The Publishers means" of increasing the beauty
and value of the Lady's Book are accumulating
year by year. To his already inesttmable list of
contributors, he is constantly receiving accessions
both at home and abroad. His arrangements with
respect to Original Paintings, from such artists as
Rothermel, Smith, Warner, Dick, Sadd, Ellis,
Croome, Chapman, Maclise, and Huntingdon, are
now complete, and he numbers among the engrav
ers whose services are constantly retained, Tuck
er, Smith, Warner, Dick, Sadd, Ellis, Gimbrede,
Classen, Humphrey, and Jones.
His whole system of arrangements with respect
to Fashion Plates is now developed and perfected.
The Lady's Book will therefore continue to main
tain that proud pre-eminence in merit and in pop
ularity, which fourteen .years of unremitted atten
tion on the part of the publisher has earned: it will

u4?u C. Colt.
Thr excitement incident to the fate of this un
h;ppy individual, still continues to disturb the pub
lic mind. Many of the citizens of New York en
tertain a suspicion that Colt is still alive. They
liiink tho circumstances attending his rumoured
death, viz: the postponement of the execution un
til almost night the firing of the prison at that
time; the private examination of the body by the
Coroner's liuest anrl the speedy removal of the
enflin, saidKO' contain the dead body, to Connecti
cut, arc joo strange to be implicitly relied upon.
Dr. Hosack, however, who was well acquainted
with himhas published a letter in which he pos
itively declares that Colt did ikill himself. He
says he saw him the mornimc-f his death, and
again immediately after Jie .was found with the
dirk in his heart, and that he could not have been
mistaken in the identity.
A Gsafit.
An individual of extraordinary size and weight
lately died at Brussels. He surpassed Daniel
Lambert, of England, and Mr. Lewis Cornelius,
late of Milford, Pike county. His name was
Bateas ho was only 43 years old, and weighed
seven hundred and ninety -Jive pounds. No hearse
of sufficient dimensions could be found to contain
his body, and it took twelve men to carry him to
tho tomb.

Or those who arc ahout to build
or rcpairi -
The timdersianed respectfully informs the
public that he is duly authorised to sell the
Risht of the Johnson Reacting Waier wheel,
to the counties of Monroe and Pike, patented
the 22d day of June, A. D. 1840.
The Johnson re-acting wheel is the best now
in use to propel a saw mill; it excels any oilier
wheel in ihe United States under a lor water
head; under a head from 5 to 7 feet is suffi
cient to cut from 2 to 3000 feet in twelve hours
nf inrrh or ahv oilier board with ease. 'The
wheels require, under a 7 fool head, HO indies
of water and so in proportion to any other head.
Under a 7 fool head, the Saw will make Irom
200 to 250 strokes per minute. 1 he advan
tage which those wheels' have over any" other
wheels is, that it requires but four posts to make
the floom or bulk head; the wheels are hung on
the 6rank shaft. Two wheels are what is re
quired for a Saw mill, and ihe posts planked in
side the same as a pen slock. 1 nave mint one
of those mills this season on , the Roaring j Lumliermens bank, Warren
