THE PRESIDENT'S RETURN.
After nine days recrea'ion in the
sounds of Noith Carolina the Pres
ident has re' timed to Washing
ton. l'atrio'ic c;t zi-u- of all par-
ties are gratified to learn that he
seems to be in perleet health. That
he etijo ed his r. cess is abundantly
shown in wha' has been published
concei mng it.
Now, that the President is home
again and at the halm ot the Gov
ernment, we trust that the gallant
shia ot s"a'c will move majesti
jiil.i iorward wfi every sail un
furled aud the tl 1 1 of the Union Hy

It is matter of regret that on his J
retui n Mr

legislation more
advanced. The!
tariff hill, on which the return of

is still in t ne hands ot th? Senate
Committee. If is not probable that
the L esiden: c in d aav'thing to
hasten the actiou otthe Senate,
Seua'or seems to be determined to
vcriiy the trite expression "Senators
can not be burned."
ft is " ' ' s iaposed that the
President surveys the action taken
by the House in his aluceuce with
a degsee of pleasure ajiproaching
exlnleration He certainly did not
advise Hie passage of the Bland
bill oefote leaving the capital, but
as the ti,ei-ure is pleasing to his

John, who by his rash act, has brought
crushing grief to his relatives and great
sorrow to their friends, and made hiin-j
self a fugitive from the outraged j
laws of bis country, is a Young man from !
whom no such action would have been j

with money of his own earnings. His
conduct here bore out the reputation
which he bore at home a- -poken ot
