The President congratulated Congress upon the pleaiting and pacific uspert of the foreign relations of Texas, and compliments the Uni- and France in terms of high enco mium. On.the subject of Mexico he expr -s ----*cs Hie desire to avoid hostilities, but speaks doubtingly.

A portion of the message i* devoted to a consideration of the difficulties in the way of auditing, examining, and verifying claims a gainsl the government. In consequence of liajigerous and unlimited power vested in the board, the President conceived it his duty to suspend their further action until the meeting of Congress.

Two felon*, named \5 illiatn Thompson, alias Hull, and William Hoc. contrived on Saturday night to break tijrt of our city pris on and escape ill the following daring man ner : liy means of nn instrument, as it is sus pected called a *intmy, Hall cut through the iron socke tof the boll of the innei-door i of his cc !\, and then severed the bolt of the ; outer ;, o o r , thus gaioiuq adnittanec into the j 1 buhv of the prison. Roe, who was cou tined in tlie adjoining cell, by the direction of Hal), who passed the tools to him thiough the walor pipe, performed the same oper ation, and also set himself at liberty. The two felons then passed along the corridor of the prison, where two men are posted j to keep watch, but who did not observe them, and passed through the Court of Ses sions, of which they removed the socket of of the lock of the outer door by unscrew ing it and thus gained egress iulo the street ! and escaped. Thompson, alias Hall, it will be recol lected some time since attempted to break jail by hurrying through the doors of his cell, in which attempt he had well nigh suc ceeded. He is a daring viilian and broke j out of the Moyamensing jail in Philadelphia the only man who has ever accomplished such a feat.—He declared that no prison j in the United States could hold him and for this once he has made good his boast. Ho was confined under a charge of burgalry and attempting to commit a robbery in Ce dar street. Roe, the other prisoner who es caped, was under conviction for a robbery in Park Row committed by him at Knick erbocker Hall in company with two as sociates. ‘Fhe villiaas carried away with them the peices of holt, &c. cut off and the tools with which they separated them.
