The annual address praises peaceful elections, federal harmony, and the confederacy's balance of power among the states. It notes the peaceful transfer of the presidency, outlines concerns about foreign interference, and discusses Oregon negotiations, trade treaties, and ongoing diplomacy with Britain, Belgium, China, Brazil, and others. The message emphasizes liberty, constitutional guarantees, and expansionist prospects while urging prompt settlement of disputes and continued pursuit of peaceful relations.
