A bill was passed near tho close of tho late session of tho legislature, releasing certain rail road and canal companies from tho penalties incurredundor tho law of 1860, prohibiting tho circulation of notes of other states of a loss de nomination than flvo dollars. ’ The Governor, however, refuses to give it his sanction, and has written out his objections to it at length and tiled them away with tho bill, in tho cilice of tho Secretary of tho Commonwealth, with in structions to that officer to deliver both to tho next Legislature immediately after its meeting. The following aro his reasons : The act of 1850 imposes upon dvory corpora tion that posses a foreign bank note of loss de nomination than flvo dollars n penalty of flvo hun dred dollars, and upon every individual a penalty of twonty-flvo dollars, to bo sued for and recov ered ns other debts are recovered, one-half to tho plaintiff, and tho other to the use of the county whore tho offence is committed. The bill now undcr i consideration docs not 1 propose to repeal the law of 1850, nor is there anything in it from which itcan bo inferred that tho General Assembly believed its influence to bo evil. In my consideration of the subject, I start, therefore, with the asssumption that tho law forbidding tho circulation of small -notes from other states is a necessary and wholesome regulation, and that tho penalty for Us violation is required to give it force and effect-. When the Legislature were dealing with the Bhbjcct, if they had not supposed tho act which they found in force, to bo just and necessary, they would undoubtedly have repealed It at once and forever. But tho bill before rao not only con tains no clause of repeal, but expressly provides against atiy inference which might Impair its futiirc force. Hero, then, is a law, based on principles undeniably sound, Containing provis ions necessary to protect an interest so vitally important as the currency, called for at the time of its adoption by public opinion, consistent with tho true rules of public economy, passed by one Legislature, and aiterfour years of expe rience solemnly sanctioned by .another. Shall such a law bo executed 1 To ask the question is to answer it. The affirmative must be the universal response. This bill declares that “whefo several suits have been broughtagainst railroad of Canal companies to recover penalties Incured by violating the 4fclh section of tho act of 1850, tho suits shall bo consolidated Into one, and judgment bo given liy the court for only one penalty, together with costs of all tho actions to tho lime of tho consoll- Uation,and all other penalties heretofore incurred whether sued for or not, shall be remitted, re leased and discharged.” This means simply to legalize all the offences which a railroad or a canal company may have committed except one. But why should one offence bo reserved for punishment while the rest are remitted 7 If tho law has been violated an hundred times, and each time umbr the same circumstances, tho excuse which should free tho party from ninety nine penalties ought to be equally valid for the hundredth. If tho law be right in one case, it is right In nil, and if It bo wrong in any it is ! sheer cruelty to let a person suffer under it at i all. | But tile bill not only creates this difference between similar offences commuted by the same corporation, but a still more unjust distinction is made between corporations of a particular class, and all oilier corporations, officers, bro kers and citizens. None but railroad and canal companies nro to bo favored by the impunity which this bill provides. All other persons and bodies, public and private, natural and artificial, must take the consequences which (heir miscon duct has drawn upon them. I ahi'senSible of the Importance and usefulness of railroad and canal companies, and I certainly have no Incli nation to prejudice them in the accomplishment of the legitimate ends for which they were cre ated. But when wo arc dealing with them for fin infraction of law, justice looking at the ques tion of guilt or innocence, is blind to nil differ ence between them mid others. Sho is no re specter of persons or corporations. The penalties which it is proposed to remit woro incurred (if incurred at all) by the Infrac tion of a plain law of which the offenders bad Aill notice, and I cannot resist the conclusion that it would bo degrading and humiliating to the State to denounce a punishment fur an of fonco, and then refuso to execute It while insist ing that it is Just. It docs not consist with her dignity and honor to Compromise with trans gressors against her statutes. Sho hns threat ened and shall sho not execute 7 Sho has pro. mised and shall She not perform. If the statute- - In question were cruel, unjust or useless, there could bo no objections to its total repeal, and a full remission of all penalties Incurred under it. But the General Assembly themselves, who passed this bill, held a contrary opinion, and on this point I concur with them. And again, tho demoralizing influence of the precedent this bill would set should not bo over looked. If this kind of legislation bo once be gun where is it to end ? The railroad and canal companies may violate tho act of 1850 again and again, and with more confidence than ever expect to bo again absolved by the legislature. Other corporations will claim equal favor with quite as much Justice. Individuals will have good cause to complain if they should bo pun ished when corporations are not. If this bill bo right I know not on what ground wo can re vise to pass similar acts whenever applied for. Mow shall wo extend so great indulgence and lenity to corporations and refuse like relief to tho destitute individual who may bo arraigned for passing fho only noio ho hod. It would bo better to repeal tho law than thus to trifiu with and degrade it. I object to this bill for another reason. Snmo of the penalties it proposes to remit are already sued for, ahd tho suit* ntd now pending. I am bound to infer (his Horn (ho words of tho bill. All legislative interference with the regular ad ministration of Justice, It must bo conceded, is wrong, and Is calculated to exercise a most per nicious influence upon tile morals of society.— It has excilod..complftiut wherever practiced, and has generally produced great evil and no good. Tho legislative and judicial departments of tho government must bo kept separated, and each allowed to perform Us functions without interference from tho other. Tho ono indeed is not fitted to do tho duties assigned to tho other. By this bill tho Legislature would step in between a judicial tribunal and its suitors, and in sub stance say to tho court—you may suspend your deliberations on this case—cease to oxnmiho tho law, ahd stop tho investigation of the facts, for wo have determined to dictate tho Judgment without hearing tho parties—without knowing tho facts and without caring for tho law. And this wo do, not bocauso wo would charge tho law on which tho suit is founded, for Wo think it wiso and salutary, and it shall not bo repeated; but wo interfere for this case alone, merely as a matter of special favor to tho present defendants. I submit that such proceedings would bo Wholly improper and unjust. Tho cases contemplated in tho bill may bo surrounded by mitigating circumstances and therefore seem to impose hardship t but tho opon degradation of tho law,and the pernicious tendon clos of tho precedent proposed to bo established should bo hold abovo any private consideration, and certainly abovo themost liberal immunity duo to transgressors. It is.to bo hoped that the par ties may not sutlbr more than tho ends of justice and tho vindication of tho law may manifestly demand. Certainly 1 take no pleasure In their misfortunes, but I cannot, consistently with a sense of duty to tho State, approve tho bill for their relict* It is to bo hoped thattho lnconvonioncointho use of tho currency, I which is pleaded ns an excuse In those cases, may bo speedily removed. An united effort on tho part of tho railroad com panies, banks and individuals, to introduce small gold and silver Into channels of circulation, it Is confidently believed, would accomplish this de sirable end. Tho fact that tho adjoining State of Ohio at tho Into session of lbd Legislature, has intordictod-tho circulation of notes not Issu ed by lior Institutions of a loss denomination than ton dollars, would Boom to suggest tho ne cessity and utility of n common effort to remove tho difficulties In tho way of tho administration of our law of 1860. Such an effort, I believe, would succeed In nearly all parts of tho State j and succeeding would exorcise a most whole some influence upon tho character of the curren cy, tho interests of commerce and trade, and especially upon the rights and rewards of labor. wm. bioler.
