Uimral l'ujhir'n Slrsiu^r upon California
anil tsie Slnvrry tlue*tlon?
We httve at length received officially the views
of the Piebidt nt up< a the subject of antt slavery,
kr.il uja u that question, as connected with the new
territories, embracing his views upon California
and New Mexico. The message is written wuh
preat calmness and contentment. It it simple in
luttguage, clear in expression, without unnecessar>
fuss or Hliectatiou of magniloquence Although
its tone aud language may seem a little more am*
bitu us than that of the annual message, yet there
is nothing 111 it beyond that digre of firmness and
naive wnicti was to he expected at such a crisis
as the present day has brought forth lu the domestic
history of the United States.
Oue very interesting mi l remarkable feature of
the message, is that of aa almost exact coincidence
upon the slavery question, with th views
heretofore adopted by General Cass, and put forth
by hini when a candidate for lite Presidency. I
An?ther very singular coincidence, also, is, ttiat
General Taylor, the successful candidate for the
Preiideiicy ut the last election, should present his '
views up< n this important question, to the lloti-e
I llepret enta'.ives at one end of tli-; Capitol, while
Gem ml Cast. Ins antagonist in the same election, I
end defeated in that contest, should, at the other 1
?nd of the Capitol, viz.:?in the Senate chamber?
be delivering Ins views on the sani" questions,
on the same day, and utmost in the same
strain as his more successful rival. The ;
position, policy, and principles thus presented
to both houses at oue and the same
time, will command a great deal of attention ,
throughout the country, and particularly among j
the anti-slavery tactions in the North, as well .
as the ultru parties of the South. According to ;
his developements, the President and his administration
are clearly in favor of admitting California
us a State into the Union, at once, with such views
0|>ou involuntary servitude, or slavery, ns the peo- |
pie of that territory may settle in their owa constitution
The President also declares his belief that
Congress ought to abstain from legislation in or.
g tni/.tLg the new territories as territorial governments,
until such a time as they can
count loptilatton enough to enable them to
form a State constitution for themselves, and
then to aek for admission into the Union.
Under this policy, it is thought by many that the
Preside nt would veto any mere territorial bill for
v.u, it? w. . u.
tuchcd to it. Now, it happens to bo Weil known,
or, at It n.-1, understood, thut had General Cuss
been tltcted to the Presidency, ho would have taken
neatly the same ground, and pursued the sime
policy. We therefore arc presented with the
siogular spectacle ot the two leader* of the two
great patties ?f the Union compelled, under the
compromise ot the cou-titntion and by a regard for
the integrity of the Union, to take almost the sime
ground in practice, nud the fame views of public
j'oln y, at- the only practical and sound action by
which to ! ring tin* great couutry out of the ditliculiy
in wh.ih it haa be.it involved by the ultra
views ot all sections.
llut the Inquiry arises, what will be the resul
of the policy recommended by General Taylor, and
how far will b?> h parties in Congress adopt his
views? It ih evident, at the firs' blu-h, that the
modeiate and conservative view*of General Tsylot?which
we couce,ve to b; the same, practically,
as thci-e disclosed by General Cass?will by
bo means satisfy many of the Southern ultras, and
we are certain they will create nothing but addition.il
(xcitdiient and Agitation among the anttslnvery
faction of the North, as long us the ipiestion
it mains open by the p<> -tponem -nt of legislation
upon all the disguud points. Possibly,
as the niimiuislration is in n minority in both
lions' s, the opposition in Congress, counting
a majority of either blanch, in ly lie able to
pass a irrritofiai bill for New Mexico with
the U Pun t piov.io ut'uch d to it, for the express
purpose i f putting the qo'stioa directly to the
Ptrsttlebt, and provoking either hi* signature or
bis \i to to the bill. Our oan impression is, that
in auih a case, Geueral Taylor, considering all his
associations, snd purjaisrs, and lei lings, conpo*
trg his general ehaincler, would veto such a law ut
once. The policy, thcr? fore, of his friends in Con- ^
gress, aud < specialfy the Northern portion ot them,
w< u <1 be to prevrnt such legislation as would pro- ,
v< ke him to that step, list whether, on the other
haid, it will be |e ssibte to accomplish delay till
Nt w Mexico shall have a sufFo lent population to
ask for admission into the Union, tune alone can
tell
In relation to (mlifornis, the chances are that
that State will be admitted into the Union with the
constitution whtih she has adopted fur her goverirrt
nt There may ptolmbly be a< me changes mide
by Congreis in her boundaries: but no change will
br m' dr mlficu it to i?-o|??rdt/r Ijpf admission into ,
the I'nioo, before the termination of the present
session. It Mlwrwitf, thr c??f |UficM would ,
br fatal, in one rre|>ect, as it would be {
to have thr whole question Mill open. Call, |
fotaia ptiorttfi a mitrtcirnt peculation, capable
of understanding their own position, and
il Congress should refuae to adm.t her, they
would aet up an independent government on thr
Pncific for ihemselvm, and maintain il agninat all
ooda and all opposition, froin any quarter. Hut
while wr think California ought to be admitted,
wr drubt w hether the i*tate of I>rarret, which haa
been taken loroeeaion of by the Mormons, with a
constitution rt her own construction, will receive
the anil e attention at Washington.
All these m 'vmente and dr rr lope men t a, during
he laM few da>?, in Congress, are eaceed.ugly interesting,
and will lead to deeply important results. I
We do aot are, in the |olicy dire hoe d by the Preridrat,
nniler the advice of hla cabinet, any
pti spect of an early termination of the anti Isvery
agitation at thia time. Ilia policy it
delay, inactivity, postponement?until the new
terntoriea shall have a auflicieat papulation to
demand admiasion into the Union at States,
(hiring this delay, in ?rd< r to avoid forcing t
the President to sign or to veto the Wilmot pro. (
tlia, the general agitation will go on in all the
rlectiens in ihe Northern States, fmn? d and eg.
riled na they w ill be- by the ngilauoa nf the an';slave
ry nnd free #e?il leaders. A prvl.ueg i'ion of
the que itirn is a prolongation of agita'i m North

as relates to California and the new territories.
The wisdom of the nalio , we hope, however,
will prevent the disorguni ation resulting
Irom all such extremes us tend to endanger the
Union itself.
Every thing, therefore, looks and ints to the
disorganization of all the old partie , towards a
scrub-race for the next Presidency, nd to the
election of General Taylor's succes-or by the
HousOTDf Representatives, which is to be voted for
by the people in the coming year.
Tiik Ci stom Hoi se, and the Merchants.?
Messrs. Meredith and Maxwell are raising a perfect
tempest among oar mercantile community.
The new circular of the Secretary of the Treasury,
which looked so well on a cursory perusal, has, it |
seems, been carried into effect at the Custom
lloiiar, in such a way as to multiply difficulties,
complicate all operation*, and even increase the
tariff, without an act of Congress authorizing such
a proceeding. The storm will undoubtedly reach
1 the fsenate chamber, and no one can tell what effect
such operations may have on rniny of those
names that are now trembling bt tweeu lite and
death in the recesses of that body.
No two men ever entered public office with
more virgin popularity naturally around them,than
did Messrs Meredith and Maxwell?the one the
Secretary of the Treasury at Washington, and the
other the Collector of the port of New York.
They were not politicians; but unfortunately tliey
ure lawyers, and nothing but lawyers. Hence the
difficulties which they have caused to the commercial
community, by their want of that business
spirit which simplifies forms, reaches its purpose in
th? reudiest way, and smoothes all difficulties in
the trail-action of business between the government
and the mercantile community. The general
sweep of the old otlicers in the Custom House, here
and elsewhere, has undoubtedly contributed to diminish
the revenue, multiply difficulties, and
enticed the issuing of so many of those circulars
that have emanated, one ufter the oiher, from the
department at Washington.
15ut the expense of collecting the revenue had to
be diminished. And how was that to he done 1
The natural way would have been to dismiss all
idle, incompetent, uud improper persons iu the employ
of the government?such persons as are unueceffniy
and useh *3 appendages to tins department.
In this city, Mr. Maxwell, the Collector, has, we
believe, instead of diminishing the expenses of the
got i rnn.ent, pur.-ued u policy calcul.it d to increase
them, by substituting ignorant persons for compet<
ut oll'.cers, thus increasing in every way the difficulties
end perplexities of his department and that
nrm <1 the government. A number of siuecurtsts
have been quartered on the government in this collection
district, in.ui/ of wtiom are connected with
the party journals, aud some of whom are idling
aw ay their time at the expense of the government,
lobbying at Washington for other purposes than
those for which they were appointed. Another
?w..U I.., .. 1....1. ,!,? u.rt. I, ., ., I...--. mnr..,QU.l

is throwing away the i.dverti-ing of the department '
on various joutnuls having little <>r no circulation,
thua wasting the funds of the depirtiiient without
any benefit to the government or the- revenue.
On the whole, we believe tioit the Treasury De.
pal t men t, and the principal officers of collection
connected with it, have never been in such a disordered
and dilapid <ted condition as they are at this
moment. Complaints are pouring in from nil quarters;
the merchants are grumbling in every direction;
and tho.-e at the head of affairs, instead of listening
to those complaints,seem only to be bent on devising
new difficulties, new perplexities, und more uujust
and illegal proceedings.

of one of our cotcinporuries, stites that Lsi Prtnr,
the h ading journal in the capital of France, in all
its continents on American affairs, takes for its
authouty the New York itrratl and its correspondents.
Whether this statement is meant by
the Parisian correspondent as a compliment to u*.
or not, we can't answer; but it is a well known
fact that the New York lit mid ts the only American
journal that has any extensive and miscellaneous
circulation in -Europe and throughout the
civilized woild. \Vfh?vr know n, for many years,
that the leading journals of London and Paris, although
th?y receive American journals, both whig
und locofoco, front this country, never place any
t confidence in their Statements, exaggerations ot
facts, or opinions, but generally adopt th; calm,
philosophical, temperate and com. rehensive views
, given to them through the columns of our journal.
( 'n ninny occasions we have broa complimented
b> the hading journals c.f Europe and rl?ewherr,
| for the unprejudiced and unflinching sUtemruts,
cenipreln nsive and easily understood, w hich are
given in our columns, explaining nil public affairs
on tills side of the water.
The great bulk of independent thinkers on this
side <>f the wafer, ap, reciatr the views and libors
of ihe Jirw York Hirahl in precisely the same
light as they are looked upou by the rest of the

cotrmpotnries, who, from jealousy or rivalry, luve
endeavored, ever since our fir?t issue, to depreciate,
run down and abuse the New York lUraUl,
and all those cor.nrcted w ith it. Till* opposition
conies lr?m the weak and unprincipled pottioa of
the cotriMporaiy press of this city and throughout
the country, and particularly the pirty press, conduced
by tiiisriable parti..iuh, who are bought,
like cattle in the market, tn< r>ly to do the bidding
of their employers?the politicians of the day. For
II sueh newspaper writ< r? and journalists we have
ihe most sovereign and overwhelming contempt,

on both sides of the Atlcntic, and on every side of
