I commend to ! your consideration the report of tne department in relatiuu to the establishment of the overland j.wiJ riiu'e from the Mississippi river to San Francisco, California. The route was selected with icy full concurrence, as the one, in toy judgment, best calculated to attaiu the impor tant objects contemplated by Cong-ess. An overflowing treasury has led to habits of prodigality and extravagance in our legislation, it has induced Congress to make large appro priations to objects for which they never would have provided had it been necessary to raise the auiouut ©l revenue required to meet them by increased taxation or by loans. We are in w compelled to pause in our career, and to scrutinize our expenditures with the utmost vigilance: and in performing this duty, 1 pledge my co-operation to the extent of cry con stitutional competency. It ought to he observed at the same time that true public economy does not consist iu with holding the means necessary to accomplish im portant national objects intrusted to us by the constitution, and especially such as may be oe cessaay tor the common defence. In the pres ent crisis of the country it is our duty to coo tine our impropriations to objects of tuis char acter, unless in cases where justice to individu als miv demand a different course. In cil j ea-s care ought to be taken that the money j granted by Congress shall be faithfully and ecc- j uotukally applied. Under the federal constitution, "every bill which j shall have passed the House of Representatives ! and litu b-O, Uir. w ," b- j approved and signed by the President; and. if not ap; roved, "he t-hall return it with his objecttons j |.. thi>' house i' which it originated." In order j ro jicrform this high and responsible duty, suffi cient lime must be allowed tne President to read and examine every bill presented to him for appro val. Unless this be afforded, the constitution be comes a dead letter in this particular; and even worse it uecomes a means of deception. Our constituents, string the P.eMdeot's approval and sigtiiture attach' d to each act of Congress, ate in duced t.i believe that he has actually performed this duty, when, in truth, nothing is, in many ca ses. more unfounded. From fie practice of Congress, such an exami nation of each bill as the constitution requires, has been tendered impossible. The most impor tant business of each session is generally crowa.- 1 into its last hours, and ihe alternative presented i to the President is either to violate the constitu. j ti'cai duly which lie owes to the people, ane ap- j prove nibs which, for want of time, it is iinpossi- i tie he should have examined, or, by h'is refusal to j do-this, subject the coi ntry and individuals to; great bss an I inconvenience. Besides, a practice has grown np of hte years toiegi-litein appropriation bills, at the bat hours of the session, on new and important subjects.— This practice core trains the President -ith Vto suf fer u.e is tires to bceoroe latrs which he does r.- .t ap prove, or l(J ;,, cur t [j e 0 p sto the wheels o: gov' rmcnt by vetoing an appropriation bill.— 1 iimer.y bi lis were confined to specific appro priations for car*; ; r g ; n t o c t existing laws and the we: -estai lisbew. l/ 0 C Y 0 p t> lo coiintay, and lit t.e time was then reqwjj-ed by the President for their examination. lor my own part, 1 liave drljhentelv determined that I shall approve no I,H wlm-q I have not exam iDcd. ufid.it 55i1l oii a c ise of jjid most ur pent necessity which shall everindu -, m e to depart from this rule. I therefore respect!ac, y bttt earn estly, recommend that tlie two houses would allow the President at least two daj s previous t o th<' ad journment of each session within which t.o new bill ' 6'- ill be presented to him for approval. Undr the existing joint rub one day is allowed; but tnis rule hat been hitherto so constantly suspended iuprac tice. tliat important bills continue to be presevted to him up til! the very last moments of the session. In a. large majority of cases no great public incon" i veuiencv- can arise from the want ct time to exam-' ine their provisions, because the constitution ha* j dec;. - <1 that if a hill be presented to the President within the last ten days ef the session he is not required to return it, either with an approval or with a veto, "in which case it shall not We a law." It may then He over, and be taken up and passed at the next sesa ion. Great inconvenience would on y be experienced in regard to appropriation bills, ant fortunately, under the late exceliei.t law allow i.lowing a salary, instead of a per diem, to mem bers of Congress, the expense and inconvenience of a called sestiou will be greally reduced.

On the Kansas question he j goes the full length with the South, lie is in fa-j vor of the € 'institution of the late bogus Con- ] ventioa, and against allowing the people of the; territory, the privilege of voting upon its pro- j visions. On this question, he is opposed by 1 Douglas. Forney and muv of the I.ocofoco mem- j hers of Congress, and leading politicians in differ emt parts of the countr*. X7 c have al>o heard the President condemned in uameannred terms by soma ol the purest and best Democrats in this plaee. The s rung probability is, that this Kan t:ts question will cause a serious split in the 1.0-cotoeo cotoeo party. We have no room for further com ments. I.et evety one read the message and see how far a ".NorThern man with Southern feelings" i jan go. APPOINTED, j Our readers are no doubt aware that Georee W. | j Bowman, the lite infamous editor of the Bedford ! Gaztile, has been rewarded with a $3,500 office, j V'til. , ,1. 18, IW —t LY Clio .

Bow man, the Slanderer ol i the livin? and the dead, -f tbe old and the young, | of some of the best people of ihe County, and ; among tlieni innocent and respectable females, is | now rewarded by this dirty, corrupt and wicked ; administration. For a nun to be a dirty, low ; blackguard, is a sufficient passport to office from Buchanan.

To Cud a medicine peculiarly adapted to this iLsease has been the study of one of the proprietors, in a large and extended practice for the past twenty years,and the result of his experiment is tho Invigontor, is a never-failing remedy where medicine has any power to help. As a Liver Remedy it bts no c*;Ual, as all testify who use it. A lady writing front Brooklyn, says, -Would ;'1 I Coul.l express in this short letter the val ue your Invigorate, has been to me in raising a largo family of children, for it has never tail ed to relieve all affections of the stomach, bow vis or attacks of worm*. If mothers ouce had this remedy placed within their reach, and were taught how to use it, a fearful and untold a. mount of agony might be saved." One of our pioniiDent bankers says, "Five or six years since I found myself running down with a liver difficulty ; resorting to your Invig orator, was greatly relieved, and, continuing for a season, was entirely restored." A clergyman called at onr office the othet day and said he had given a poor woman a bot tle, who was suffering very badly from Liver Complaint, and before she had taken the whoU oi it she was at work aiming bread for her fam ily. A gentb-man, recently from the West, savs, while at Chicago, lie was attacked with a slow' lingering fevsr, that baffled toe skiff , 0 f pbysi c: 'is, bat the Invigorator cured him in a few days. One of our city merchants said, while on a vi.-i: to Troy, a new days since, ho was attacked v. itb bowel and stomach disorders, sons to con tine hiin to his room, he sent to the drug stoio for a hottle of Invigorator, took one dose, which relieved him so that he was aide to attend hit uu&incss. An aennaint Alice, whote basiuess conpeli oim to write most of the time, says, he became so weak as to be unable at times to hold hi* pen, at others, sleep would overpower him. but Uie iuvigorator rarud liim- A gentleman irom Brooklyn called on us a week or two since, i-jiting but the shadow of a with .lii.ju yellow, pile and deathlike.
