KEADERS, ONE AND ALL.
. 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. His business here is to try, and gjt his
money back, but if he is not careful hi will

lose both moCey and life. . j
