Navigation of tho Ohio. Lornviiu Dec. 24—The Ohio river *t this point is freezing up fast. Navi gation is almost suspended. For the Dally Sun. j L',U. Sun. A writer iu the Columbus ! Enquirer say- that the friends of the liadeville rouic of the Opelika and Talla dega Hail lload represented last May that it was a level country through which they proposed to build They did not say so; they said that it was a broken country, but us the Columbus and Opelika Road had ascended (lie highlands between tho Chattahoochee and Talla poosa rivers, and iu consequence of the Loachupoka creek heading at Gpclika with one of its prongs, und that .Sandy creek bending near to the I.oacliapoka creek with one of its most southern prongs, and running west of north-west nearly within one mile of liadeville, they had the advantage of running parallel with those streams and ridges, which would make a cheap grade. The same thing occurs with several streams along tho line of the lioad. Rut ho seems as tonished that there should be bills nortli of Opelika. Rut Ibis Loacbapoka creek has ns many ns five prongs with high ridges between Oak Rowcry and Opelika alone, and were it not that we have the advantage of a lengthy prong to lead us down and across that stream below where tho most of those streams come together, we might find a costly Hoad to grade. Rut as it is, we have a cheap Road to grade through a broken country, and a couutry closely fenced, making bad wag on roads, Again be says that our road is only fifteen miles shorter from Monte vallo by our route than by Montgomery. Rut if he will measure again his “map” first from Montcvallo to Wetumpka, where they will be compelled to cross the Coosa river, he will have 50 miles; then add 10 for curvatures, makes 00; then add 14 to Monlgomery, makes 74; then add 08 to Opelika, and he will have 144 from Montcvallo to Opelika by Mont gomery. Then let him measvre again 82 miles to Childcrsburg, and he says 30 thence to Montcvallo, makes 112 by tho Dadeville, and 32 miles in lieu of 16. Again he seems to think that Monlevallo is the only coaling point, while it is only the southern point of immense fields. At Rroken Arrow, only wiihin fifteen miles of Childersburg, Prof. Tuoruey reports a great abundance. Thus deducting fif teen from the liadeville line, and he will have 47 miles in favor of the liadeville route. Rut he seems to write as though coal was all that this Road would bring ; or perhaps he is willing to have all of your cotton, corn, wheat, bacon and laffl, from Decatur, Tuscumbia, and along the line, brought to Montgomery, and there have your portion divided off lo you. lie, it is likely, is one of those old fogies that ruled iu Columbus and Wetuiopka twenty years ago, who was “mighty feard of taxin’ the dear people” which gave to West I’oint and Montgomery the Road that nature li id laid out for Selma, Wetumpka, Columbus and Macon, to Augusta. Such men afreet to have a great desire not to tax the dear people, because tho dear people can vote, hut they are found to he like tho Madagascar bat—while they fan us to sleep with their well wishes, they, for the want of a lib eral investigation, draw off our life-blood from us. YOUNG AMERICA. + Tlic Speaker of the Uotile—Mr. lJo eek*H Declension, Mr. Bocock, of Virginia, in withdraw ing his name as the democratic catididate for Speaker of the House of Representa tives on Monday remarked : The country, sir, is intensely excited— a feeling pervades it, so far as I know nnytliing of its condition, tho like of which lias never been knowii before.— The expectation of the peoplo comes up to tis in every direction, demanding to know whether we cannot bear unite among ourselves those of us who have rounder and nior* constitution®! vio? a cannot unite for the defeat of a party which they regard as sectional. For myself, sir, I have been willing at all times, in all the stages of this ballot, to unite in any feasible mode to accom plish that object. Relieving now tlmt the further use of my name—l standing before the House ns one of the nominated candidates of one of the parties of the House—believing, 1 say that the further use of my name must he to some extent, a s'umbling-block and a bar in the way of the union, 1 beg leave to withdraw it from the further consideration of the House. before 1 tnko my seat, 1 will say that I do not fail to nppreciato the honor of pre siding over the Mouse of Representatives; but there is one feeling scnrccly less dear to me, if at all less dear, than that. It is that during two weeks of excited and ani mated discussion of an nctivo canvass, 1 feel that I have conducted myself in a manner worthy of a representative of a free, chivnlrous, and generous constitu ency. Had 1 gone into that chair, l would lmvo gone entirely uncommitted, free to do equal and exact justice to every member of this body. I took care, also to provide that should I remain upon the floor, (which is now certain,) 1 should remain with heart unsubdued by any mean complicity—with hands unshackled free to think and to work for the protec tion of the rights of every section of this country, for the honor and glory of the whole. ♦ Resolutions ofllie Virginia Legisla ture.

The following is the remainder of the synopsis of the Rresident’s Message, the first portion of which was published in our noon edition yesterday, and appears on our first page this morning: Iu August last, Mr. McLane, the Min ister of the United States to Mexico, sent a communication, in which he expressed the hope that the President would feel authorized to ask from Congress for the authority to enter Mexico with military forces at the call of the constitutional authorities, in order to protect our citi zens and our treaty rights. Unless such authority is conferred on the President, outrages will continue to be committed ou our citizens and our guarantied rights. The President adds that he lias been reluctantly led to adopt the same opinion, and lie feels bound to announce this conclusion to Congress. This is a question which relates to the future, ns well us to the present and the past. The aid which Mexico requires, and which the interests of all commercial countries require, should be extended to her, it de volves qn this Government to render, not only by virtuo of our neighborhood to Mexico, but by virtue also of her estab lished policy, which repudiates the in tervention of any European power iu the domestic concerns of that Republic. For reasons stated, tlic President re commends the passage of a law author izing him to employ such military force as may be necessary for the purpose of obtaining iudemuity for the past, and se curity for the future. Should it be the pleasure of Congress that volunteers should be selected for such u purpose, a force could be easily raised in this coun try, among those who sympathise with the sufferings of our fellow-citizens in Mexico, and with the past and present unhappy condition of that country. Such au accession to the forces of the Constitu tional Government of Mexico would ena ble it soon to reach the capital. The President recommends the estab lishment of military posts across the Mexican lines in Sonora and Chihuahua, for the protection of the lives and prop erty af Americans, against Indian dep redations. He recommends the establishment of a temporary Government in Arizona. The President thinks that the provis ions of the recently concluded treaty with Nicaragua will not fail to be satis factory : and recommends the passage of a law authorizing the employment of our naval force for tiic purpose of protecting Americans iu passing the Panama, Nic aragua, and Tehuantepec routes. He again recommends to Congress to pass a law giving the President authority to employ our naval force in protecting American commerce against seizure and confiscation in Moxico and in Spanish American States. In rolatiou lo the failure of the passage of the Post Ollice appropriation bill, at the last session of Congress, he recom mends the passage of a bill at the earliest day, to provide for the payment of the amounts due to contractors, including interest; und also to make appropria tions for that department for the current year. The construction of a Pacific railway is recommended for reasons urged iu his former nnnual messages. The President says it appears extreme ly doubtful whether we shall bo able to pass through the present and next fiscal year without additional revenue. Should a deficiency occur, ho recommeuds that the necessary revenuo shall be raised by an inoronsc iu the present duties on im ports. In conclusion, lie recommends to the just liberality of Congress, the local in terests of tho District of Columbia. - - British Policy in Mexico. Washington, Dec. 24.—Official dis patches from the U. S. Legation at Eon don, brought out by the Asia, were re ceived at the State Department to-day. They state that several eminent bank ers of London had sent a petition to the Uritisli Cabiuet, begging the Government to recognize the Constitutional or Juarez Government of Mexico. The Foreigu- Secretary, Lord Johu Russell, received tho petition, snd ap pointed the Oth of December for an inter view with the bankers aud Mexican bond bolder*. It is believed that the British Government is favorable to the recogni tion of the Juarez Government. Congressional—Christinas.
