The Daily Dispatch: January 30, 1861., [Electronic resource], Message of the President. (search)
exist. Defence and not aggression has been the policy of the Administration from the beginning. But whilst I can enter into no engagement such as that proposed, I cordially commend to Congress, with much confidence that it will meet their approbation, to abstain from passing any law calculated to produce a collision of arms, pending the proceedings contemplated by the action of the General Assembly of Virginia. I am one of those who will never despair of the Republic. I yet cherish the belief that the American people will perpetuate the union of the States on some terms just and honorable for all sections of the country. I trust that the mediation of Virginia may be the destined means, under Providence, of accomplishing this inestimable benefit. Glorious as are the memories of her past history, such an achievement, both in relation to her own fame and the welfare of the whole country, would surpass them all. James Buchanan. Washington City, Jan. 28, 1861.

Ex-President Tyler. This aged public servant returned yesterday from Washington city, and is sojourning at the Exchange. Regarded with general respect and veneration as he is, he is looked to with deep interest in his present labor of love in endeavoring to restore peace to his distracted country. But he comes back from the Federal city, we would infer from what we hear, with certainly no increase of hope. If there are really any strong indications of a brighter day to excite hopes in the minds of Messrs. Crittenden, Douglas , and others, they have not been manifested to him, or his joy would be reflected in his own countenance, which was wont so to beam with cheerfulness and benignity. It is plain that his concern for his country is none the less, and that his heart is heavily oppressed with what he has seen and heard.
