Passing, for the present, ver the various, other interesting topics dis cussed by the President, let us consider those portions of the message treating of the sub jects of most immediate interest we mean the Tariff, and its consequences in South Caro- IJiha. We took occasion, a few days since, to anticipate, mai wnne "lurtner alterations in the scale of duties would be suggested, or at least, that the consideration of a revision of the revenue laws, would be earnestly recommend ed to Congress, with the view of adapting their operations upon the several classes of the con federated community, according to the princi pjes of equity and justice, the tone of the mes sage in relation to the actual position of South Carolina, would be determined if not stern." -Our anticipations arc fulfilled to the letter. The subject of a further reduction in the reve nue, "is earnestly -recommended to the con sideration of Congress, in the hope that the combined wisdom of the representatives of the people, will devise such means of effecting that salutary object, as may remove those bur thens which shall bi found to tall - unequally ' upon any, and as may promote all the great in terests of the community." This recommen dation we said, and believe, would have been iQade, whatever had Jbeen the position of the Soutlr: the tone of the Presicfent towards South Carolina, situated as she is, must make this evident. - There is a condensed determina tion, ihe more forcible from its stern simplici ty, in this part of the message, which cannot be mistaken, nor fail to produce its proper effeef; " Whatever obstructions be thrown in the way of the judicial authorities of the Gen eral Government," observes the President, "it U hoped they will be able peaceably to overcome luem by the prudence of their own officers, and the patriotism of the people. But; should this reasonable reliance on the moderation and good sense of all portions of our fellow citizens fhern801016 V U belie that the laws - uch at ade(luate to the suppression of may b? mediately made.

Prom the reasonableness of the proposition so often urged upon Congress by the Presi ; , of a judicious Tariff, adaptedto ouractual wants, in lending our humble abilities to this "devout ly wished-for consummation.' This Message breathes t!:e spirit of a patriot it holds him forth as the benefactor of his country. 1 his is the man who is to contribute so essentially. to restore the Rights of the States, and the Union of the States ! We bail this Message, in the general, as aus picious to the principles we hold dear, and as prophetic of the most salutary consequences to our Union and country. lie speaks with the freedom of a Patriot, and the skill of a Statesman. It will endear him to us at hotne it will increase the respect and consideration of our government abroad. It will be felt in every limb, artery and vein of this great re public. It opens with a rapid and satisfactory View of our Foreiffn Relations; and enforces the propriety of a strict adherence to the maxims o'f Washington and of Jefferson a "free com merce and honest friendship with all nations,'' and " entangling alliances with none." It re presents our national finances beyond our wants the receipts from the customs exceed the estimate at the last session and the means of the Treasury are more than adequate to meet the increased expenditures of tlie last Congress, and to provide for the payment of the Public Debt, now redeemable. The duties yie'ling during the present year more than -8 millions, but the public lands lulling snort ot the 2 millions 18 millions applied this year to the public debt and millions in the first four years of his administration ! On the 1st January next, the entire public debt, funded and unfunded, will be reduced to within a frac tion of 7 millions ! The President congratulates Congress on the near approach of this memorable event of the extinction of the debt an extraordinary phenomenon in the history of nations. He re marks, that the final removal of this gerat bur then from our resources will afford the means lor providing for alLthe objects "which the Constitution authorizes, and presents the occa sion for further reduction in the revenue." He refers to the Report from the Treasury, which will confirm all his suggestions about the re duction of the Tariff. The President contends that such reduction may be made to a consid erable, extent and earnestly presses it upon Congress to " devise such means of effecting that salutary object, as may remove those bur thens which shall be found to fall unequally upon any, and as may promote all the great interests of the community. He insists upon the proper adaptation of the revenue to the most economical expenditure. He goes for the encouragement of such manufactures only as may be necessary for our defence in war and emphatically states, that " If, upon investi gation, it shall be foun , as it is believed it will be, that the legislative protection granted to any particular interest is greater than is indis pensibly requisite for these objeets, I recom mend that it be gradually diminished, and that as far as may be consistant with these objects, the scheme of duties be reduced to the zevenue standard, as soon as a just regard to the, faith of the Government, and to the preservation of the large capitial invested in establishments of domestic industry will permit." He then goes on to argue the disastrous consequences of high Tariff duties, and contends that it is doubtful whether "the advantages of this sys tem are not counterbalanced by many evils A 1V i 1 . t 1 . icnuing to oeget, in the minds of a large portion of our countrymen, a spirit of discontent and' jealousy dansrerous to the stability of the Union i he language he holds in relation to South ""'iiia, is as conciliatory as it is aigniueu as moderate as it is firm. ith a view of reducing the government to nat simple machine which the Constitution created, of withdrawing all sinister influence over the States, and of confining the Federal ruthority to its proper and designated sphere of beneficence, he proposes to sell all the stock :1 . , - now neiu oy it in corporations, &c. He bears upon the Bank with a heavy hand xic naiua congress against the exercise of anv power ov r Internal Improvements, e tion of goods free of duty, when the Constitu tion provides that "all dutes, imposts and ex cises, shall be uniform throughout the United States?" Tb it is a more difficult question ; but according to our present impressions, we would not do even that. It is true we must contrive some way to prevent her free goods from be ing conveyed into the other States', but this could be done by such means as are adopted on the frontiers of any two countries in Europe, which are separated only by an imaginary line, and by the same custom house examinatisnr at tlie ports of the t wenty-three States, as are ap plied in the case of vessels arrivinggfrom foreign countries. We admit that all this would be at tended with inconvenience and expense. But noj so much of either, as would be occasioned by a civil war. We would hold off in this way, in order to give time for the good sense of he.r citizens to correct the errors into which, they have fallen. If we do not greatly miscalculate, they would in two years time be heartily sick Important from Washington : Last night's Mail brought us the highly important and interesting Proclamation of the President of the TJnited States, on the subject of the course which has been, and is proposed to be, pursued by South Caro lina. We regret that we are under the necessity of deferring its publication until our next. At present, we can only give a few extracts, from which it will be seen that the President is determined to enforce the execution of the laws. The appeal he makes to the feelings of the people of South Carolina, is ur o-ed bv considerations which we trust they will not disregard. Extracts from the Proclamation.

The bill appn printing 50,000 for re-building the Capital in this City, has passed the House of Com mons by a cheering majority, and is now before thc Senate, where its success is not so confidently antici pated. The largest majority counted on, before the vote was taken on the passage of the bill, wa. five or sis votes. It however succeeded by a majority oi thirteen, and one friend absent. From the West proper, the only votes in favor of the measure, were those of Mr. Graces, of Caswell, and Mr. Craige,c! Salisbury. The other changes, eince last session, are on the Cape Fear, the members from whi:L quarter bein to find that they have been duped They never will consent to go into an unlimited Con vention, and the West want a Convention of noothf ? character.
