Commerce. A Message 'from ltd President he re "commends-immediate Congressional Action on tne subject. 1 vA WASUIXBT03S, March 23. Tho "fol lowing is the message of the President sent to Congress, in relation7 to the de-j cline of American, oornmc'rc'G-.'-. i-t ' In the ExccativemessagooTiyecera ber 6, 1869, toCongress,'the importance of taking steps, to revive onr decaying merchant marine was urged," and a special message promised at a future day, dflring the present session, recom mending more specifically plans U 'ac complish this result. Now tliat xhe Committee of the Honseof JRepjresen talives intrusted with tho labor of as perTaining 'the cause of theTdecline of American commerce, has completedjts work,and submitted a report to ihe legislative; branph. qf. thq'jSovejruUe'iit, tdecra this, a fitting time to "execute that promise. i he very able, calm, and -exhaustive report of the Comraitted'points'out the grave wrongs which have produced the aeenne in our commerce, n is a na tional humiliation that wc are now compelled lopayfrora 620,000,000 to S30,000,000 annually, exclusive of pas sage money, 'nhich we should share with other nations,to fureigncrs for doing the work which should be done by American owned and American manned vessels.- llns is a direct drain upon tho resources of .the country of just so much moneyVJequal to casting 11 into me sea, so lar as me nation is, concerned. A nation1 of the vast and ever increasing interior resources of the United States, extending ns it does, from one to the other of the great oceans o'f the world, with an industrious intelligent, and energetic population. must one day osess its full share of the commerce of the-e oceans, no mat teKwhat thp cost.

The advanced period of the year, and; the fact that no contract for ship buil ding will probably be entered until this Question is settled bv Coheres.". and the further fact that if there should b much delay nil large' vessels con tracted for this year will fail of comple tion before W inter sets in, and will therefore be carried over for another year, enducesmefto request your early consideration of this subject. I regard it of tfuch. grave importance, nfietting every interest of the country to so great an extent, that any method which will gain the end will secure a rich na tional blessing. Building ships and navigating them utilizes a vast amount of capital at home, and employs (nou sands of workmen in their construction and manning. It creates a home market for thu products of the farm and' the shop. It diminishes tebalance of trrfdo againitius. precisely tdtlie extent of freights and passage money paid.to iirnencau vessels, ana gives us ;i su premacy upon the seas of inestimable value in case'of foreign wai. Our navy at the commencement of the late war consisted of less than 100 tesselsof about 150.000 tun", and a force of :bqut8,000 men. We drew from the merchant marine (i huh had cot the Government nothing, but which haa been a source of national, wealth) COO. vessels, exceedina 1,000,000 tuns, and about 0,000 men, toatain tiie sup pression of the Rebellion. This state ment demonstrates the value of the merchant marine as a means of national dciense in time of war. The Committee on the Causj ol the Reduction of American TunnagPj after tracing the cause of its decline, submit twobillv which, if adopted, they be lieve will' restore to tho nation U maritime power. Their report shows with' greatmlriutenes. the actual and comparative American tunnage at the time of its gfeatestprosperity the .ac tual and comparativ e de6line since, to sether. with tuc-'causes.and exhibits other statistics of material1 interest in referencoTto the" subject. As the report is before' Cdngress; I wjl notrecapitu lata ahy of its statistics, but refer only to the, methods recommended by tho Committee to give back to us our lost commerce. As a general rule, it can bo adopted, t believe a direct money snbsidv is less liable to abuse than in; direct aid given to the same enterprise. In this case, however, my opinion 1 tfiat subsidies, while they may bd given to special lines of feteamers or -other vessels, should not be exclusively adopt ed ; bnt in addition to snbidjzing very desirable lines of ocean trafho, a gener? al assistance should be civen. in an ef fective way, and therefore commend to youf-iavorable consideration the two bills proposed by'the Ctfjnmittee, and referred to in this tnesage.

The bonds of thoorthera Pacific Railroad have not yet bVen injroduqeli on the market. S INTEUXAL IUPEOVElrKrr ron OHEGOX should Jbe the carncseibrt of, every citizen, and those, who oppose it, or their party, should be compelledv to take a backseat. - 1 v On tho 1st of this month, the House Pacific railroad committee against tho wjshesof-eVery Democrat crPthecora mitleej agreed o.rpor'a JbilJ, provid ing for the cojnstrucjiion pf a railroad from Umajilla, ontheCohimbia river, to Great SalfLarej1 tf distance of 500 or'600Tniles7grantingx3snbsidy-oflland of twenty, sections to,the)'5niIe, each sde of the road.

"sham" Democrats on the committee and in the House, whlcfi prevent speedy action. The fewiDem ocrats in the Senate prevented acti6H on the Astoria railroad bill by technical objection for several weeks. Wheh d vote was reached they were found 'to bo very weak. Railroad improvements meet with more opposition in both Houses of Congress, than I anticipated. I did 'not think all of any party, in either House, would vote against any of our railroad land grants. In this, you hao seen, I was mistaken; on Friday last Senator Williams' Portland Astoria and McMmnvillb bill was reached, in its rcgnlar order, in the House, and an effort was made, in tho absence of the chairman of the don mittccon public1 lands, for the bill to' retain its position until" tho chairman , arrived, so ho could make his report, and the bill be passed without "delay This would have enabled trie company and contractdrs ux complete the road at least to Hillsbord, and pcrhiips to McMin'ifVille, this seasort. Tho bill was called, and it conTa only retain' its position, under tho rufes of tho "House, by the unaniraous'coiiscnt'of the meri" bers present. ' ' ' Mr. Hilman, a bed rbek' Dcraocrntj from Indiana, bade a long sp"eecH against its passage, and the general passage of any bill granting l.trtds to aid in the construction of railroads. This opposition throws the bills to the foot of tho calender; and no one knows" when it xi ill bo reached again. If ft had nt been for tho opposition of tho' Democrats in the Senate, it' wduldhave? passed that body long beforeuit did; Now, if tho bill is defeated jintil near the close of the session, tho Westsido Company and the citizens of Oregon' may justly bldmo the Democrats for its delay. The Democrat's here want' a. living isuc In Oregon they arc con tent to run on the dead carcass of the T5th amendment, add the repudiation, of the natioriat debt at the expense of national honor.

Democrats fof Oregon, aid and assist diem, by trying .to elect a Democrat who will havo.no influence in the next Congress. Look to tho interest loil Oregon, look to your own interest, and decide the question' at the Jnnoelec tion. - Mr. Fitchjiof Nevada, has introduced: a bill, in the House, granting lands 'to aid in tha construction oi'a railroad and telegraph line from the Cnlifqroia1 and Oregon railroad, tojthc Central pa cific railroad ; and also, another, grant;-., ing land, for the purpose of aiding, the const! uc tion of a railroad, from apointi on tho Central Pacifjc railroad, at orx near the south bend of tho Hurrboldt, river, to the eity of Portlapd. .This bill recognizes the companyjwhich was organized in Portland, on tho Sth day of July, 1868. - 1 f Mr. Williams has introduced, a. hill into tho Sena'e, requiring the Secretary of War to survey thq Urnpqua River, with a view ot securing siacic water navigation, and the sum of seventy-five thousand dollars is appropriated fort the survey and improvement.
