The Message will show that our relatione with Mexico art of a peaceful and promising character. The Guano difficulty Vith the Chlncha Islands has been definitely and mUsfrctorily adjusted by Peru. The Importance of open ing the A»n«»nn will be dtcuseed and the administration are making strenuous effort* to accomplish It. The Fish- ary Question Is unsettled. Negotiations are In progress.

The Justice of the Spanish claim for Indemnity In the ease of the schooner Armblead is conceded, but animad- recta strongly and severely upon the conduct of the Spau- lah authorities towards American cltlseni in Cuba, and in- timates that it must be immediately stopped. In regard to the eubject of Slavery, the President re-af- firms, in the broadest terms, the Compromise and Union doctrines set forth in hU inaugural, with decided emphasis. The right* of the Southern States are as dear to the President as those of Now Hampshire. Th# Message will urge upon Congress the propriety of reducing the duties on certain articles, and the addition of Others to the free list, In order to reduce the revenue to •bout fifteen millions lese than the present amount annu- ally collected. -A large Increase is recommended In the Navy, and modi- flcations In the Army. The extension of the Land system Is also recommended, with seme modifications. Over Utah and New Mexico, modifications also. Our Land system In favor of actual settler* and its ex tension, is recommended with the pre-emption principles. Important amendments to our Patent laws; changes In the Judicial system ; probably the reduction of the Judges of the Supreme Court, as vacancies occur, to five members only, and relieve them entirely from Circuit duties, and appoint Circuit Judges, Independent of the Supreme Court will be suggested. No appropriation for Internal Improvements It tecom- mended, and tbo reason Is given for withholding the funds, bated upon the injustice, irregularity and inefficiency of the present system, which Is inadequate to meet the de mands of commerce, or afford necessary protection to hu man life and property. The question is urged at length, and It is suggested that Congress empower States to levy tonnage duties for the purpose of raising funds lor works necessary to commerce. The message discountenances any appropriation by the General Government for building the Pacific RailrosJ ; and objects even to an appropriation of alternate sections of land, except under circumstances sufficient to induce ju dicious individual proprietors to make similar disposition of his land. ’ The power of Congress, under certain contingencies, to construct Military Hoads for purposes of common defence fe admitted, but at present the President Is clear that the common defence does not demand such an undertaking as the construction of the Pacific Railroad.

The ontiro water front of our city, yesterday, from soon after 12 uutll after 2 o’clock, P. M., presented a most enlivening and beautiful sight. Tho day was all that could be de9ired—the sun shone bright and warm, the skies wero clear, and the day as soft aud balmy as a day In June. The beauty and fashion of tbo city were out in their strength to witness the regatta. The counting room3 fronting the river, the tops of buildings, the docks, the decks and rigging of the shipping, for the eutire length of the harbor, were occupied with spectators. At precisely half- past one o’clock P. M., at the signal given, the three eight-oared boats—the Friendless, entered by Mr. Bpauldino ; the Sunny South, entered by Mr. Cou- per 5 and the Flight, entered by Mr. John Screven, m&do a start from tho west line of West Broad-street. Mr. Screven’s boat was stationed nearest shore, Mr. Coupeb’s next, and Mr. Spaulding’s outside, near the center of the river. The steamer St. Johns was anchored in the stream—on board of which was » band of music and many ladies and gentlemen— The start made by the contestants was most admira ble. But ft very short time elapsed, however, before It was manifest that the Sunny South was tho favor ite boat with the great majority or the spectators, al though the others were Bkiirully managed, and cheered ooby hundreds anxious for their success. The Sunny South assumed tbo lead, which she continued to bold throughout, exhibiting a degree of skill In the use of tbo oar by her crew which we never saw sur passed. The entire ran was made, we believe, in a little less than seven minutes; the Sunny Sonth bo^ Jug declared the winner by about a length aud a half. The Flight followed next, and the Friendless brought up the rear. The Annie Bryan, a two oared boat, without a competitor, was rowed over tho course, and took the fourth prize. To-day is to be tho day for sport. The entries ar tf more numerous than those yesterday, and cousist of well known racers. Our Charleston friends, it would appear, have been completely frightened off the course. There la oertainly some reason for their alarm, when tt is considered that the aloweat crew in the race yes terday were the victors in the recent regatta in Charleston. Georgia "dug-oats,” and Georgia crews stand the victors against all odds. ■team Communication to Savannah.

Settlement of the Methodist Church Fnw party Question In Mew York.

After a careful and most friendly examination or the whole question, the Southern Commissioners made a proposition for a settlement of their claim, which the Commissioners for the Nerr York concern accepted. Nothing now remaiua to be done to con summate this desirable adjustment of n most trouble some litigation, but the execution of the necessary papers, and the arrangements for a final decree of the United 8tatea Court for tlie southern district of Now York, now in session in this city.;: Tho settlement has been agreed upon by the par tics without the arbitrament of third party,a and is to each entirely satisfactory. The conclusion of this set tlement was followed by thanksgiving to God, and moat hearty expressions of Christian love and mutal confidence. The feelings which prevail among the Commissioners of the two cbnrohes. me may hope, U a true type of that which will prevail hereafter throughout the bonds of our common Methodism, North and South. Much credit is to bo awarded to his honor, Judge McLean, for his agency in the completion of this im- E ortant and desirable arrangement, and we doubt not ut this act will stand prominently among those of his long aud brilliant career, which have given him so enviable a position before the Christian psblic.

Some idea of the passionate and burning speech of John Mitchell at his reception in San Francisco may be gathered from the following extract: " I was a freer man in a Bermuda hulk than the un happy Irishmen who saunter and simper in the Dub- llu Crystal Palace, and make believo that they arc loyal citizens and members of society. Their souls dwell in a hulk. From the browu shades of the Tas manian wood I bad a clearer view of the great trans actions aud destinies of mankind than they in the cgntre of their vicious civilization, and amidst the crushing race of hungry candidates for ten thousand offices—which are England’s bribes aud the devil’s. Therefore, you will seu it is not in ignorance or for getfulness of what has been passing these late years, that I dare again to utter the creed of Irish nationality —that I hail your sympathy with Irish rebellion.— There are Irishmen hero to-night—do you, my coun trymen, tell me that our cause is lost forever ? Is tho history of Ireland over, then? Do you tell mo logo back to my island dungeon .and disturb no more the march of Anglo-Saxon civilization and tho Crystal Palace progress of the species ? Forgive me the ques tion, ray countrymen ! Do not our hearts leap up at the very thought of the next European convulsion ? Do they not burn within us when we think of all that •' peace and order,” as tyrants call tho chained quies cence of slave*,—how it will bo shivered to atoms on some etfrly day—a day to be called the white day for ever—with a crash that shall shake the pillars of the globe, and how thrones nnd] principalities will totter und rush down into chaos before the stormy wrath and execrations of gods and men ? Bear with me. I have plunged at once into the very heart nnd centre of my absorbing subject. It has been the dream of my prison houra by day nnd night. No wonder that I rash so eagerly to mcctyonr offered sympathy my brother repuplicans. No wonder I gladly hasten to realize to rnysell the full meaning of that sympa thy, and to let all the world, friends and enemies, kuow the same. Yes, I. an Irish rebel and republi can, am proud of the title—I. who write rebel after my name, and wear it aa a frontlet between my eyes —am welcomed by the citizens of this most American of American cities, for my rebellion and republican ism, aud for nuthingelse.

GUNNISON, UNITED STATES ARMT. The untimely and tragic fate of this gallant and able officer, while engaged iu the arduous duties of the government, 1ms caused a pofouiid impressiou throughout the country. Captain Gunnison was plncod by tho War Depart ment, in April last, in command oi the party charged with the survey oud exploration of the Central Paci fic Railroad route. He left St. Louis, after receiving bis instructions from the government, early in June last, with high hopes, and possessing tbo confidence of tho country that a more faithful, energetic, and efficient officer could not liavo been selected for the important post assigned him. The appropriation of Congress providing for tho survey was extremely limited, but the utmost power was given to Captain Gunnison, by the Secretary of War, consistent with tho act under which the survey waa required lobe be made. It was not until May that Capt. Gunnison, received a notification that be was required to assume the command of the expedition. He immediately let out for Washington to arrange the necessary matters for the difficult work before him : the organization of his party, tho selection of his assistants, the purchase of commissary and materiel for the work. The Sec retary of War,having the most unbounded confidesce in the lodgment and fidelity of Capt. Gunnison, al lowed him to write his own instructions, aud to or ganize the whole plun and material of the expedition. This work was accomplished in less than a week, tnd tho gallant officer was on his way to the mountains Captain Gunnison was a native of New Uamshire. He graduated at West Point in the year 1835. Aft *r his gr&dnation he assumed his place in the artillery. On the oreanization of the Topographical Depart ment of the array, consisting of thirty six pcrions, ho waa translerred to that branch of tho service. Hu was selected for that scientific corpse because of bis f ieculiar qualifications, and bis active and efficient nbors in the Topographical corps has won for bin a name among tho first in tho country. For mtny years previous to 1849 ho had been engaged iu the Coa-t Survey of the LakcB, and his labors in that im portant work have been second to none in this corps, lie was remarkable for energy, accuracy aud perse verance in whatever he undertook for tho Topographi cal bureau ; and it is believed that Col. Abert, his chief, regarded him as ono of the most competent, faithful and upright officer in the service of the War Department. He was an boncBt man. He served his government with all the energy and power of his cultivated mind. In 1849 he was attached to the party under Capt. Stanbury, which was ordered to make a Topographi cal Survey of the basin of the GreatSaJt Lake. Capt. Gunnison was charged with the astronomical duties of that survey ; and the manner in which be acquit ted himself is well known to the country. The de tention of the party at the Mormon elty of Utah ena bled Captain G., in the interval of time, to make im portant observations upon the theocracy of the Mor» mon government, which, In the following year after he returned, wero given to the public. This work is oneofthe most interesting records of the interior growth of this country, and of the peculiarities of the Mormon church, which has ever been written. It was extensively republished in this country and In Eng land. Capt. Gnnnlson married Miss Delony, of Georgia, in 1841, and he now leaves bis wife and three child- dren, who it is believed are in tbe latter State, to mourn bis untimely and most melancholy fate. As nearly as can be ascertained he was killed by a band of Utah Indians, who had mistaken bis party for Mor mons. His body was pierced by twenty-six arrows; one of his arms hod been cat off, and he was otherwise mutilated. This mast have occurred about the 23th October last. Capt. G. bad determined to go iuto winter quarters, and was making arrangements ac cordingly. He was one of tbe ablest and bravest men in tbe scientific corps, and, although young bad won a peal, tion as an officer, and a character as a gentlennn, which gave promise of the highest usefulness to bis country.

DM, Chattanooga, November 80,1863. Htunois of the Press. Our friend ot tho Louisville Courier gives the follow ing amusing account of the peregrinations of an Ohio editor: “Sara Pike, once of the Highland (O.) Democrat, formerly of the Peru (Iud.) Forester, subsequently of Piketonlan, afterwards e Itor of a paper at^ Washing ton, (O.,) then connected with a sheet at Circlevillo, (O.,) more latterly tbe conductor of the Flag and Horuet at Flemlngshurg. the Flag at Maysvllle and Newport aud Covington, and still more recently with the Paducah Pennant, talks about establishing a dem ocratic press ut Paris nr Ml. Sterling.” This is certaiuly a rather ubiquitous editor. Per haps. being " boru for the universe," he was afraid of '• narrowing his mind,” by contracting any local ideas or attachments. Perhaps, like jEneas or old, he wanted to see the manners of many cities, for the ueedful improvement of bis own. Or he may have traveled in search of a wire, like Ccelebs. Or, In lino, he may bo the Wandering Jew turned printer. He was studying geography. As to editing Ids paper, he must have done that ahorseback. Ho might have dis- K nsed with carriers and mail contractors. He had ttcr get a locomotive office, like the itinerant daguerreotype men. Or,after all. a single number of his paper may have been as much as the meekest of villages would let him publish.—N. O. Crescent. Louisiana election. Great confusion has existed iu the telegraphic and other published returns of the recent Congressional elections in Louisiana ; but we have at length found in the Whosldngton Union, an authentic account of the result. It is us follows, viz : 1st District—William Dunbar. (Dcm) Charles Gayftrie, (Whig) . 4.656 Democratic ninjoritr for Dunbar 2<1 District—Theodore Gaillnrd Hunt. (Whig) Samuel B. Davis, (Deni) Whig majority for Hunt 1 District—John large majority. 1.109 l’erkin*, Jr., Dcmocmt, elected by a 4th District—Roland Jones, Democrat, also elected by a large majority. In the auto Legislature there Isa Democratic ma jority of 33 on jolut ballot—-26 in tho House and 8 in the Senate. A Simple Cure forStammerino.—Sir. Wakefield, at an inquest lately held iu England, states that a few days before, the summoning officer told him it would be useless to call onu witness, a lad, because he stnttered so excessively that he could hardly ar ticulate the shortest sentence in half an hour. Mr. W., however,had him called, and telling him that a shot could not be discharged from a gun without powder, so words could uPt come from the mouth un less the lungs had their powder, viz: air. He told him to inhale the air, draw his breath strongly ; nnd tbe boy having dono so, Mr. W. asked him : “ Can you talk now ?” The boy, to the surprise of the Jury, answered im mediately and glibly: "Yes, sir, lean, well.” The coroner added that Inhalation or aclf-lnflatlon of the lungs with air, was a sure remedy lor stam mering, and though it lmd been discovered long ago, the Faculty had not until lately, and tbcu only a few of them, cuused it to be practiced as a remedy for de fective articulation. Yankee Sullivan again Arrested.—The Sheriff of Westchester couuty arrested Sullivan In this city, on Wednesday, for having violated tho conditions of a pardon he received from a former Governor or this State. Being the second in a pugilistic fight, in which one of the parties was killed, Sullivan was tried at White Plains, and found guilty of manslaughter in tho 4th degree nnd sentenced to the State Prison, from which he was pardoned, before he served out his time, on condition'tlmt he would never again be con cerned in any prize fight. Having violated the con dition of Iris pardon by recently engaging iu another prize fight, tho authorities of Westchester considered that he had rendered himeulf liable to imprisonment for tbe balance of the term for whicli he had been sen tenced. and had him arrested. From this arrest he sought to be liberated by a writ of habeas corpus, on tho ground that, subsequent to his conditional pardon ho had received nn unconditional pardon. Tho Court donied tbe motiou for his liberation, on the ground that it could not interfere with a warrant issued by a court of coequal jurisdiction.-—New York Mirror, ‘Id. John Mitchell—There was anotiier large gather ing of tho friends of Mitchell last night, at the resi dence of his brother, in Brooklyn. Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Meagher and Mr. Smith,in answer to loud calls, made short addresses to tbe serenaders. The " Irish Confederates of 1848” have extended an invitation to Mr. Mitchell, for himself, wife and children, and other members of hi? family, at a Banquet to be giv en on Monday, Dec. 12th, where a Committee of the Whole will present him with an original address A delegation is cn route from Boston, to iuvite Mitch ell to visit that city.—N. Y. Mirror, 1st. Eleven happy days in a life-time.—"Were I offered the choice,” said Byron, "cither to live ray life over again, or to live as many years more onward, I should certainly prefer the first; yet my young days have been vastly more unhappy than I believe those of other men commonly are. I once attempted to en umerate the days I had lived which might, according to the common use of language, be called happy ; I could never make them amount to more than eleven; and I believe I have a very distinct reraernherancc o: every one. I often ask myself whether, between thj present time and the day of my deutli, I shall be able to make up the round dozen.” More of the Effects of Spiritual Delusion. —Mrs. Ward, a respectable woman living in Ashley County, Arkansas, was, a few nights since, " inform ed by a spirit” that Iwr left hand Iud offended her Maker, and that to make her peace she must part with it. Mrs. Ward immediately got out of bed, pro cured nn axe, and cut off her hand at the wriHt. She then awoke her husband, telling him what she had done, and why she had dono it. A physician was sent for, but during the time prior to his arrival, aim lost very little blood, and was well several daj-B after the occurrence. The Epidemic at New Port.—On Sunday last, <nys the Wukulla Times, of the 30tb, there was one new case or yellow fever, being tho only one since that day week. This case readily yielded to the usual rcmldies, and the patient will probably he able to re sume bis business to-day or to-mon-ow. Or the« oe««» mentioned In our last, 1 is dead, 2 oontinue to Improve, and 3 are well. The weather since Friday has been cool and pleas ant, and should it continue bo, we may not have any more new cases, but it is probable tiiat we must have a heavy frost or two to effectually destroy the seeds of the disease. _ . . , Ve understand that Mr. Hugh Archer, who waa confined for some days at Bel-Air with the yellow fe wer, is now able to be about. Ekv. W. H. Milburn.—This popular and eloquent clergyman, known as " the blind preacher,” for he has almost entirely lost his eight, will be a prominent candidate for the Chaplaincy of the House of Repre sentatives.
