Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. It is keenly to be regretted that such a recommendation, from a president of the United States of America, as that above transcribed from his message, should seriously be made a subject of public discussion in the legislative halls of our federal Congress. Indeed the alleged object of the re commended measure is of itself so obviously contemptible that it would be impossible for the American people to escape the most scornful and humiliating strictures from all foreign nations, as well as the sneers of that very enemy in whose favor this extraordinary appropriation is solicited, and who will not fail to derive aid and comfort from the evident embarrassment, in which Mr. Folk implicitly confesses to have been thrown by the wanton, nay malicious, war by him and him alone, provoked. Viewing this affair under the mildest aspect possible, Mr. Polk would appear to act the part of a brutal school-master, who after having broken the legs of a child for disobedience to one of his insane injunctions endeavors to prevent it from screaming, by placing a sweet cake in its little hands, to avoid being lapidated by the rest of his indignant pupils, or sent to the penitentiary. But on closer examination, we Will find much worse than that.
