PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE.
The President’s Message to Congress was
received to-day. The following synopsis
conveys the important points of the Message.
The resistance to the general Government
having exhausted itself, the first question
that arose was whether the territory within
the limits of those States which atempted lo
secede, should be held as conquered ter
ritory under military authority emanatiug
from ihe President. He considers that mili
tary governments, established for an indefin
ite period over these Slates, would have of
fered no security for an early suppression
of discontent, and would have divided the
people into vanquishers and vanquished,
and would have envenomed hatred rather
than have restored affection between the
divided sections.
The true theory is that all pretended acts
of secession were from the beginning null and
void; that Slates caunot commit treason
nor screen the individual citizens who may
have committed treason. The States attempt
ing to secede, placed themselves in a condi
tion wherein their functions were suspended,
but not destroyed. But if any State neglects
or refuses to perform its offices, there is the
more need that the General Government
shall maintain its authority, and as soon as
practicable, resume the exercise of all its
functions.
On this principle he bad acted. Gradually,
equally nud by almost imperceptible steps,
he had sought to restore the rightful energy
of the General Government and of the States.
To that cud provisional governors were early
appointed,
All the parties in the late terrible conflict
must wof k together in harmony. It is not
too much to ask, that on the one side the
plan of restoring the energies of the Govern
ment shall proceed in conformity with a wil
lingness to cast the disorders of the past into
oblivion, and that on the other, the evidence
of sincerity in the future maintenance of the
Union, shall be put beyond any doubt by the
ratification of the proposed anti-slavery
amendment to the Constitution. This amend
ment being adopted, it would remain for the
States to resume their places iu the two
brandies of Congress, and thereby'"complete
the work of restoration.
The President says be has no authority to
make the freedraen electors. That measure
remains wilh tbe States, und they can decide
whether it is to be adopted at once, or in
troduced gradually with proper conditions.
Good faith, however,requires that tbe securi
ty ot the freedmen be guaranteed on their
liberty, properly and right to labor aud to
claim the just returns of their labor.
It will be |bis constant aim to promote
unity witlh all foreign natious, and be be
lieves all of them are animated with the same
disposition. The accoidaoce of belligerent
rights to insurgent States was unjustifiable.
But Great Britain was an exception. She
built ships, and furnished men and
material of war to the iusurgents The
justification for it cannot be sustained
before tbe tribunal of the
At the same time, be does not advise any prej
sent attempt at redress by acts ot legislation.
For the future, the friendship between the
two countries must rest <>n a basis of mutual
justice. We have wisely forborne, because
propagandists of republicanism. But it
would be the cause of great calamity to onr
selves and tbe cause of good government,
should any foreign powers challenge tbe
American people to its defence against foreign
interference ; and be relies on the wisdom
and justice of those powers to respect the
system of non-interfence which has so long
been sustained by them.

FROM NEW YORK.
EUROPEAN NEWS.
The news by the steamship Beotia from
Europe, is to the 19iU.
The Washington correspondent of the
London Times reiterates his assertion, on
“high authority," to the effect that Secretary
Seward has officially taken a very strong
position in support of the Mouroe doctriue
as against the French plan iu Mexico.
Sir Morton Peto defends the Baptists of
Jamaica against the charges made against
them in connection with the uegro revolt. A
writer lo the London Times controverts
some of his statements
It was thought iu Paris that Spain would
uot listen to a proposal of mediation iu her
difficulty with Chili. Chilean blockade
runners were preparing to leave England.—
The feeling against Spuin was very strong in
that country.
Very disgraceful scenes took place among
the pugilists and “roughs" collected at Tom
Sayers’ funeral.
The Loudon News, speaking of President
Jolinson’s policy and the prospects of the
treedmen in the South, says one thing certain
is, that the real permanent welfare ot the ne
groes is a work which requires patience. The
sin nnd sorrow of a hundred years cannot be
repaiied in a hurry ; nor can the wronged
race he righted or compensated by partisan
strife, or aDy rivalry of Southern passion.—
Force can never achieve such a work ; an<4
in the particular case, the shortest and surest
road to the social salvation of the blacks is a
wise gentle consideration for the whites.
IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO.
The news from Mexico is important. The
city of Chihuahua, capital of the State of the
same name, and formerly the seat of Presi
dent Juarez’s government, but recently in
tbe occupation of the imperialists, has been
evacuated by the latter, together with the
entire State. This tact is officially promul
gated in the Periodico of November 2, pub
lished at Ei Paso, and is confirmed by des
patches to tile same effect received by Senor
Romero, Mexican Minister in Washington,
last night. The event had caused great re
joicing among the Mexican republicans
wherever known. President Juarez was
about leaving El Paso for Chihuahua, in or
der to reinstate the natioual government at
his old capital. His liberal Minister of War
had issued a stringent order summoning all
general and subordinate officers of the na
tional army absent from the country with
qut leave, to return at once and report for
active service.
The Mexican.republicans fflhtlie RioGrande
frontier had made no further attack on Mat
amoras up to the 19th ult. It is said that
two thousand French and Austrian troops to
reinforce the imperial garrison there hail ar
rived at the mouth of the river. From New
Orleans we are again furnished with a des
patch which iu different dress has been made
to do service at least twice before by the tel
egrapbers in that city. It states that two
republican boats from the American shore of
the Rio Grande atempted an attack on the
imperial steamer Antonio, which fired upon
and sunk them, killing or drowning, as is
supposed, all on board. It lias been iulima
ted that the craft taken by tbe imperialists
for a republican flotilla were merely Ameri
can wood boats. An agreement has been
entered into between Generals Weitzel and
Mejia that the Matamoras Bancbero shall
cease to publish articles insulting to our sol
diers and people, and that our soldiers on
the Rio Graode shall refrain from insults to
jbe imperialists across the river. |
FROM WASHINGTON.
Tlie Organization of tile House, and the
Southern Members Gleet.
The New York Herald's despatch of Dec.
1, says:
“There are now, probably, oneltuudred
members of tbe House of Representatives in
Washington, with several only from the late
insurrectionary States. Excepting the cre
dentials of members elect from Tennessee
and Virginia noae have been received from
the South, it is uot probable that others will
reach here from the late insurrectionary
States before Monday, owing, among other
causes, to the deranged condition of the mails
and tbe consequent delay in gathering the
official returns of the elections, and the time
required to send the credentials to Washing
ton. So it does not now appear that, on the
meeting of the House on Monday, any diffi
culty cun occur in the admission of mem
bers from the Southern States ; and this is
the general opinion of members now in
Washington.” •
THE SOUTHERN MEMBERS ELECT.
It is reported that there arc not more thaD
Bwo of the members of Congress elect from
he Southern States whose credentials are
properly made, and who could obtain seats
even if there was no such hindrance as a test
.oath, which perhaps can be swallowed by
half a dozen. The program nab of these will
be rather startling to the constituencies of
.he South when it comes to be revealed in
tbe organization of the House. They pro
pose to side wilh ihe radicals to keep South
ern members off tbe floor by working against
tbe repeal of the test oath, even if the ma
jority of them go down in the ruins, like
Samson. Those who cannot take the test
oath expect it will he repealed. The argu
ment they use is that when pardoned iho
new citizenship conveys with it eligibility to
Congress.
TKBRIBLR RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.
The night express train going South from
Washington, on the Orange and Alexandria
Kailroad, met with a serious and ’ fatal acci
dent about 12 o'clock on tbe evening of the
29th ultimo, one half mile east of Warren
lod Junction, caused by the breaking of a
rail, which threw tbe near coach, loaded with
members of the Ninetv-sixih New York vol
unteers, from the track, and precipitated it
down an embankment, literally crushing it
to atoms, and instantly killing three men and
severely wounding twenty-eight others.
A terrible disaster occurred on the Ist iust.
ou tlie New Jersey Central Railroad, about
two miles west of White House, in Hunter
don county. An express train going east
collided witli a coal train liound in the aiunc
direction. The latter Imd been detained by
euduavoring to stop a freight car which had
lirokeu louse on I tie opposite truck. The
baggage car dashed through the first passen
ger car, along the tops of the seats, guillotin
ing the passengers, of whom seven were
killed and seventeen wounded. A coroner's
inquest over the bodies of the victims of thu
disaster was held, and several witnesses were
examined, wbo exonerated the company and
thsir employes from ail lilame Tbe luquust
will be continued at onopto day.

From the South west— I The Mississippi
Legislature.
A despatch from New Orleans, Dec. 1,
says :'
The action of the military authorities at
Mobile in refusing to obey the writ of habeas
corpus in the case of Dexter, charged with
cotton frauds against the government, is sas
tamed by Ihdß’resident.
Tbe Mississippi Legislature has passed the
exemption bill over the Governor's veto It
exempts from execution of judgment $3,000
worth of property belonging to the head of a
family, child, &c. The Legislature did not
pass the stay law over the veto.

The National Thanksgiving Day.
The following is the proclamation of Presi
dent Johnson recommending the observance
of to-morrow, the first Thursday of Decem
ber, as a day of National Thanksgiving :
By the President of the United States of America:
A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God,
during the year which is now coming to an
end, to reiieve onr beloved -country from
the fearful scourge of civil war, and to permit
us to secure the blessings of peace, unity and
harmony, with a great enlargement ol Civil
Liberty ; And, whereas, our Heavenly Father
has, also, during the year, graciously averted
from us the calamities of foreign war, pesti
lence, and famine, while our granaries are
full of the fruits of an abundant season ; and
whereas, righteousness exalteth a nation,
while sin is a reproach to any people :
Now, theretore, I, Andrew Johnson, Presi
dent of the United States, do hereby recom
mend lo the people thereof, that they do set
apart and observe the First Thursday of De
cember as a day of National Thanksgiving,
to the Creator of the Universe, for those de
llverances and blessings.
And I do further recoipmend that on that
occasion the whole people make confession
of our natioual sins against His infinite good
ness, and with one heart and one mind im
plore the Divine guidance in the ways of
national virtue and holiness.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this,
twenty-eighth day of October, in the year of
Our Lord one thousand eight hundred and
sixty-five and of the Independence of the
United States the ninetieth.
ANDREW JOHNSON.
By the President:
Wm. H. SawxßD, Secretary of Stab 3
estates not Amenable for Treason. —
Judge Red field of Boston, has written a let
ter to Senator Foot of Vermont, in which
he takes the ground squarely that none of
the States, late the scenes of insurrection,
are responsible as Status, and that nothing
but individuals in the States are amenable to
the law on the score of treason. The reas
oning is said to be clear, cogent, compact
and convincing ; one of the most powerful
arguments, iu fact, which has emanated
from any quarter,
