He declares he will oppose all suoh legislation to the bitter end. The anti-Lacompton and Douglas democrats denounce it, if possible, in stronger terms than tho republicans. ‘The portion of the Message which excites the indigna- ten of the republicans most is where he congratulates @ongress upon the final settlement by the Supreme Court of the question of slavery in the Territories, aserting that (@e right has been established of every citizen to take slave property there, and bave it protected there, under fhe constitution, and that neither Congresa, the Territorial Aegisiature, nor apy buman power, has authority to annul ‘or impair this vested right. I have reaacn to know that as eon as the House is organized this position of the Presi- @ent will be agsailed by some of the strongest men on the wopublican side. Some few of the extremists of the South, who would prefer disunion, and would not object to the reopening of the slave trade, dislike Mr. Buchanan’s ‘whews of the slave trade and in favor of the Union. Senator Brown, of Mississippi, intimated to-day his in- tention to attack that part of the President's Message which suggests the judiciary as the proper tribunal to aéford adequate remedy in cases of interference with the wight ef a master to b.s slave in the Territories, instead of yeeemmending Congreesional action for protection. ‘The coneervative, Union loving democrats, pronounce fhe Message an able State paper.

Instead of adding fuel to the flames, the South had always acted ina spirit of conciliation. He also took occasion to rofer to the course of Mr, Adams, in the Twenty-seventh Congress, when he proclaimed that in case of a servile in- surrection the constitution gave the federal government jurisdiction over slavery, and, under the treaty making power, the right to emancipate slaves. He quoted from the remarks of an Alabama member, and charged Mr. Adams with saying, in reference to a servile insurrection, “Let it come, if five hundred mitlions of Southern men perish.” Mr. Conn, (dem.) of Ala., inquired it the gentleman at- tributed the entiment to either of the Alabama members? Mr. Suri replied that he did not, but had been quoting Janguage of Mr. Adams. mn.—If there were in Alabama any one holding such doctrines we would hang bim up. POSKD OF. At this point the Doo:keeper made his appearance, bearing several large paper parcels, which everybody be- lieved to be the President’s Message. This opinion was confirmed on the appearance of Mr. Buchanan, the. Presi- dent's Private Secretary, and the excitement became very general throughout the hall and in the galleries, members jumping up and claiming attention by voolferating “Mr. Gerk,” “Mr. Clerk.” Finally, Mr. Jouy Cooumans, (dem.) of N.

They eay he cannot bring his ‘wn party to his support, and besides, if be gets the Gerkship, he will support Douglas should the latter get the Charleston nomination. The only answer which Beracy is understood to make to this argument ia, that dere is no danger of Douglas geting the Charleston no- mination. This does not suffice for certain republican haters of Douglas in the West, who éeclare they will Rever support Forney unless he repudiates Douglas. ARRIVAL OF THE NEW TREATY WITH MEXICO—OFFER OF MIRA- MON TO SURRENDER THE PRESIDENCY OF MEXICO, ETC. Mr, La Reintrie reached here this morning with the Mexican treaty, and delivered it immediately to the Seere- tary of State. It is understood that the Cabinet had it un- er consideration. The leading points in it have already been stated. Mr. La Reintrie states that, notwithstanding She reverses which have recently overtaken the liberal party, it will be able to maintain ite position, and in the end triumph. Miramon, in his interview with Degollado, acknow- edged his inability to cope with the liberals. He offered to eurrender his porition as President provided certain eencessions were made, which were rejected as incompa- tible with the Juarez government. ‘We was understood that the British government would Bhortly recognize that government. In fact, intelligence Wae expected every mail by Mr. Mathew, the British Minister, authorizing such @ course, and which is known ‘to be in accordance with his yiews and feelings.

Mr. Cobb, on the contrary, is quite confident that “there will be no ne- entleman’s busine ¥ to impose restrictions upon bo man.

Mr. Smiru presumed when the constitution was adopted such a prohibition existed in all the States. There was necessity for it, and the South bad been governed by that policy.

Mr. Cobb is of opinion that there has been ho overtrading this year, and that there is no reason to apprehend either, on the one hand, anything like a collapse resulting from exces- sive importations, or,on the other, any material falling off in the imports; hence he counts confidently on an in- come from customs of $55,047,670. This assumes an im- portation which, under the tariff of 1846, would have yielded a revenue of over $70,000,000—very considerably greater than that of any previous year, as the following table will show:— Years. 8-61 . 1859-60 (estimated) do. : It is probable that the President, of observation have been greater than those of the Secro- tary, is not quite 80 sanguine about the customs revenue keeping up.

His assertion, too, that no irjury can be done by over importations, so long swe ship gold to pay for them, is also novel and entertaining, though we doubt whether it would console the banks when they suspended—as of course they would do when the drain of gold to cover exchango began to ex- houst their reserve, One can well understand Mr, Cobb’s anxiety to divert attention from his own singularly un- successful administration of the public finances to topics of a general character; but was it necessary to utter such nonsense as this? ‘We shall take occasion to revert to these important documents again. ‘The award of the $3,000,000 of Treasury notes was made at Washington to-day.

Toledo closed 1 lower; its earnings during the third week showed an increase of $4,000—213¢ per cent. Hudson Rivor was very firm; the scheme for extending the second mort- gage bonds meets with pretty general favor.
