WASHINGTON CITY UeC.2. The President ol 'no United States trans
mitted this day, to both houses of Congress, the fallowing message : IMlEMDENt'S MESSAGE, TO THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF KKlMlUsSN TATIVKSO, THE UNITED SlATr.S Felluw Citizens oj' the S?iate and of the House of Hef-iresentatives, If ihe enjoyment in poiuston ot the bounties of Providence forms a suitable subject of mutual gratulation and grateful acknowledgment, we arc admonished at this return of the season, when the rep. csentaiivcs ot the natio . are assembled to deliberate upon their concerns, to offer un the tribute of fervent
grateful hearts, for the never failing mercies of Him who rulcth over all. He ha?, again favored us wilh healthful seasons and abundant harvests. He has sustained u in peace with foreign countries, St in tranquility within our borders. He has preserved us in the quiet and undisturbed possession of civil and religious liberty. He has crowned the year with his goodness, imposing on us no other conditions than of improving, for our own happiness, the blessings bestowed by his hands ; and in the fruition of all his favors, ol devoting the faculties with which we have been endowed by him, to his glory, and to our own temporal and etcrnjl weltare In the relations of our Federal Union with our brethren of the human race, the changes which have occurred since the close of your las1 session, have generally tended to the pre
servation of peace, and to the cultivation of harmony. Before your last separation, 'a wor had unhappily been kindled between ihe empire of Russia one of those with which our intercourse has been no other than a constant exchange of good offices, and thai ol the Ottoman Porte, a nation from which geographical distance, religious opinions, and maxims of government on their part, li tie suit eel to the formation of those bonds of mutual bene olencc which result from the benefits ot commerce, had kept us in a stale, perhaps too much prolonged, of coldness and alicnati on. Fhe extensive, fertile and populous do minions of the Sultan, belong rather to 'he Asiatic, than the European division cf the human family. They enter but partially into the svstcm ot Eurone : nor have their wars
with Russia and Austria, the European states upon which they bot tler, for morj :han aventury past, disturbed the pacific rciali.-ns ol those states with the other great powets of Europe. Neither Fiance, nor Piusia, nor Great Britain, has ever taken prt in them; nor is it to be expected that they will rt this time The declaration of war by Russia has received the approbation or acquiescence of her allies, and we may indulge the hope that
