TEE rEESTEEXTS KESSAGE. ! Many of our numerous readers may a have time or opportunity to read je above document, we, therefore, pro pose a few comments, extracts, kc. i The first thing the President offers -to the consideration or perusal of Con gress h the continued prosperity, haziness, and quietude of the Union ; ' it ' thence branching out on the history f compromise measures. The com promise which consumes most of his ; time, is the "Missouri Compromise," j catered into by the North and South j in 1820, at the time the State of Mis- j souri was admitted into the Union. i Ihe President brings forth many argu- ! merits to show the fallicy and uncon stitutionalitv of establishing a line I over which a portion of the citzens of the United States would be prohibited from carrying their property. Decisions ! of the Supreme Court of the United 1 Stafcs, are brought forward to sustain the po.aon that Congress has no right j to impose restrictions of this kind s. More than one half of the Message is ; taken up by this question. The next subject, claiming the atten- tion of President Pierce, is the finan cial condition of the Country, show ing that "Uncle Samuel" is in easy . circumstances: During the last fiscal year the re ceipts from customs were, for the first time, more than sixty-four million dol lars, and from all sources, seventy tiirecmillion nine hundred and eighteen thousand one, hundred and forty-one ilollars. The expenditures, including three million dollars in execution of tke treaty with Mexico, and excluding Fums -paid cn account of the public debt, amounted to sixty million one hundred and seventy-two thousand four hundred and one dollars; and includ ing tho latter, to &erenty-two million nine hundred and forty-eight thousand seven hundred and ninetv-tvro dollars. the payment en this account having amounted to twelve million seven hurnl red and seventy-six thousand three hundred and ninety dollars. Vn the 4th of March, 1853, the amount of the public debt was sixty nine million one hundred and twenty- nine thousand nine hundred and thirty- wen dollars, lucre was a subse i. ' . . -1,. muviu increase 01 two million seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the debt of Texas making a total of seventy-one million eight hundred and seventy-nine thousand nine hundred and thirty-seven dollars. Of . this the t um of forty-five million five hund red and twenty-five thousand three hundred and nineteen dollars, includ ing premium. has been discharged, re during the debt to thirty million seven . hundred and thirty-seren thousand one hundred and twenty-nine dollars: all of which might be paid within a year without embarrassing t he public service, fui Doing not yet due, and only re- deemable at the option of the holder, cannot be pressed to payment by the government. A reduction of the revenue from Customs is urgently recommended; also renewed recommendations for the in- crease of the Army and Navy. . Allow us to make one more extract from this document, in regard to the r?rcrt of the Secretary of the Inte- . rior. - .The aggregate sales of the public : "tids, during the last fiscal year, amount to nine million two hundred and twenty-seven thousand eight hund red and seventy-eight acres; for which has been receied'the sum of eight .hons' eight hundred and twenty-one ' hund fQur hundred and fourteen pilars. During the same period there nave been located. itli mY,t 8nl land warrants, and for other pur rses, thirty million one hundred thous Hi two hundred and thirty acres, thus making a total aggregate of thirty-nine million three hundred and twenty-eight thousand one hundred and eight acres. On the 30th of September last, surveys had been made of sixteen millions eight hundred and seventy-three thous and six hundred and ninety-nine acres, a large proportion of which is ready for market. . The Post Office Department shows "an excess of expenditures overreceipts of two million seven hundred and eighty-seven thousand and forty-six dollars. Our foreign relations come in for a small share of the President's attention; giving a slight touch of the "Fish Treaty" between Great Britain and the United States, showing that Department to be in a flourishing and amicable condition. - . - Efforts made to relieve our trade of sound dues have have not been attend ed with success. ' The Cuban disputes have not been satisfactorily settled. The subject of "abolishing privateer ing," is acceded to with the following ammendmcnt: "That the private prop erty of subjects and citizens of a belligerent on the high seas, shall be exempt from seizure by the public armed ycssels of the other belligerent, except it be contraband.". This propo sition has been submitted by our Gov ernment to all maritime nations, and has, so far, been favorably received. The winding up of President Pierce's final address, to the American Con gress, is devoted to Nicaragua,-and New Granada, two Central American Republics. Diplomatic relations with the former Republic are rejected on the ground, of so much "unccrtenity and confusion" having recently pre vailed in that Country, the President has not been able to decide "which was the Government de facto." New Gran ada seems to be disposed to subject our vessels visiting her ports to a "tonnage duty of 40 cents per ton a tax of "three dollars on every pound of mail matter transported acros3 the Isthmus." It is conceived to be the duty of the United States to resist the execution of these laws. The unfortunate riot, which occured at Panama on the loth of April, elicits serious consideration from the President, charging the inhabitants of Panama as the instigators of the out raeous assault upon the property of the Railroad Company, and the pas sengcrs who were passing over this route; causing full investigation of the affair and demanding summary punish ment of the perpetrators, with pro visions made for the families of those killed, and "full indemnity for the roperty pillaged or destroyed." Believing that the security of persons and property, passing over this route, demanded it, a part of our Navy has been stationed at the ports of Panama and Aspinwall, to prevent a repetition of such another outrageous attack. Commiting the safe-keeping of our Country into the hands of an All-wise Providence, President Pierce closes his last Annual Message, preparatory to retireing to the peaceful shades of private life. ., EfCTXESTS 01 TS3 PAST "WEEX. We are happy to state that nothing of a very sericus nature occured, since the coming in and going out of the "Holliday Frolics" and we hope, ma.ny a pleasure has been enjoyed which will be held in hallowed remembrance for many a day. ! . . Our friends at Sonora, Linden, and Millsap, Mo., we are informed had nice, glorious times, to which there are many "living witnesses" but the "times'' brighter and more glorious , than all came off at our neighboring town, Nemaha city. Our friend, Dr. E. M. M'Comas, a whole-souled, thorough bred gentleman, put the "cap-heaf" on the "hull on't" by getting up a "New Year's Eve Party" at which those who could, "triped the light fantastic" did it with science and elegance, those who couldn't played a fine hand in warming the iner-man and filling up natural yacancie3. All things went smoothly &3 a "marriage bell," and the boys are supposed to have waited on the girls to their homes next morn ing early about the hour of 9 o'clock. Such "time3" are worth, recording in the "Book of Memory." A' gentleman from England, thongh, h has furnished more than onehalf of the mea s for the purchase cf that wool machinery, tojr ingat St. Louis, they did not exempt hiabox es from the general search, hoping to qbtain more.
