' * Resolutions expressive of the feelings of. the last Legislature on the death of the late Johu C. Calhoun, were communicated; to his family. I'herewith-transmit the correspondence.'• ; The i amendment to the-State Constitution, providing for the election by,the citizeus of the. judicial officers of the Commonwealth, having received tbe=sanclion of a majority of the peo ple, is now part.of the organic law. Your at tention is-invited tO such legislation as may be necessary to carry into complete effect this ex pression of. the.-popular .will. By the termsiot the'ConstitUtiun/the commissions of‘the Judges will expire on the first Monday of December, iu the year, one thousand , eight hundred and fifty-one., It is suggested that this will afford a favorable opportunity to remodel and greatly lessen the number_of Judicial Districts. At present there are no less than twetity-lour ju dicial districts, with District Courts iu Phila delphia and Allegheny Counties. A reference to the vast amount of business* transacted in tliepe last-named Courts, affords conclusive evi dence. that the interests of the community de mand their 'continuance. Should a redaction be made in the number of the Common Pleas .Districts, the salaries now paid to the Judges ought to be iiicreaßed to such extent as would be a fair remuneration for the labor performed and the responsibility incurred in the execution of the duties of their high offices. It is no part of the character of our citizens to require the • labors of :others, without adequate compensa tion. Fair salaries will best secure.the .servi ces of holiest, intelligent and competent men, in ihat department of government, in tire faith ful administration of which every citizen-is so deeply-interested. An increase of the salaries of tue Judges of the Courts of Common Pleas and District Courts, would demand the exten sion of the same liberality to such geutlemen as may be selected to discharge the higher and more responsible duties of Judges of the court of last resort., \ Two annual elections appear to impose un ueceseary.bnrthens upon the citizeus. Expense to the general treasury, and loss pf time to the voter, could be well saved by authorizing the elections now held in the Spring to be holden af the general election in October.. To such counties as desire to try the experiment, the right might be granted! I have been furnished with a statement*of .tho expense incurred by holding Spring elections in Dauphin t County, and if the amount is a fair average of the ex pense to the other, counties, the change indi cated will save to iffe people of the Common wealth annually Upwards! of thirty thousand dollars. - The projector creating.an .Agricultural De partment connected with the State Govern ment demands the favorable consideration of the Legislature. In such department might be collected much .valuable information for the use of the practical farmer. . f T,he. recent improve ments m the construction of implements of husbandry, ..the analysis o*f earths,. improved modes of tillage, and adaptation of manhrea and seeds to various kinds etf soil, are subjects of absorbing interest tq.theagricalturalclasseß. Diffusion of knowledge respecting .the best breeds of horse's, cattle, and* other stock, with suggestions in an authorized and reliable form, and experimental expositions,of the proper mo/ies of rearing and training live stock of all kinds, couTd'hot fail,to act beneficially on this great interest of the Common wealth. - Should the National Government erect , pn Agricultural . Bureau, in conformity with the suggestions of. the President, the State institution would -be an efficient auxiliary in the collection of local in formation, andfor the distribution here at home, of knowledge' amassed . in that department from othersources. In this establishment, the claims of the mining, mechanical, aud manu . facturidg interests on the fostering care of- the Government, might be equally regarded. A private so'cietyjn,our metropolitan, city by its liberality, activity and learning bus done much to tlevelope and' encourage the arts and sciences, useful in every-day life, and has largely aided . our mechanics and manufacturers to- gain a reputalion throughout the world. JJy the raea 'sure proposed, I desire to accomplish for the advancement .of the. agricultural, mechanical, aud mining industry of the -whole Common-. w‘eaUh’, whattho:Franklin. Institute has done for those. .iutipresiß,- which havq enjoyed the bepefit of- .discriminating care.

The'schdol system, although still imperfect,'• is rapicfiy improving l in its general. condition,', and promises the beneficial results it was, de signed to accomplish. The education of the 1 people, is the great question of the age, and as such it Cahnot fail to command your earnest and enlightened efforts for-its speedy and ulti mate success.,i . In the compatiuon : for trade and travel, no effort for the full repair of the canals and railroads of the State should be neglected.— The deteriorating condition of many of. these works,.admonish- us; that the system of super- vision is ineffectual to secure the return,which. their construction gave confident" assurance.—‘ In A’ system of divided responsibility in their management, the difficulty evidently exists.— , On a former occasion it was suggested to di vide the State into Canal and Railway districts, UmTallot to each a Canal Commissioner, to. whom its entire control should be given. This project is again recommended, but should it fail to meet your approbation, the.proposition of selecting a Superintendent, to wborn for bis whole time and attention, a compensating sala ry should be paid, and under whose sole con trol the public worksimight be placed, is worthy > of consideration. All the evils arising from di vided counsels and shifting responsibilities would be avoided, and that energy and skill in their management secured which cannot be ex-. pected under the present system. It is alleged this method of supervision of public works has succeeded well and beneficially in other States,, ; A commercial connection between Philadel phia and Enropeby Steamships,—an enterprise truly worthy the favoring regards of the &boje commonwealth.and the countenance and aid of $40,775,485 42 the national government by the extension of mail -facilities—the completion of the great Railway -communication now in rapid progress of construction to the navigable waters of the West, the thorough repair of the. C.umb.erlapd Valley road, and the erectionof. various lines of Railway jn the valley of the Susquehanna, an amount of trade on the Colum- bia' Railroad which will demand for its transit the,erj>i re .capacity of that thoroughfare in a con dition of perfect repair. Every avenue by which the -trade of the West, as well as of. Cjentral and. Northern Pennsylvania reaches Philadel- due, there must be a rendition of the fugitive, phia, ought to be opened and kept in such per-»l To interfere .by Legislative enactment or feet condition as to afford alt possible facility otherwise, to destroy or in any way affect the to business, for in the growth and welfare of right of property recognized in the first propo- Philadelphia, the entire people should feel a lively interest, as identical with the prosperity of the whole State. Whilst the internal trade ’ is poured into our metropolis, and her local au thorities aie doing their part to promote her commerce, it is our duty to demand from the General government some portion of its re sources for the security and improvement of the harbor of the Delaware. Improvement of the, navigable rivers and protection of thej har bors of the Ocean and Lakes ought to oe no longer delayed. • 1 'ln this-connection I deem it my duty to call yoqr attention to the pending litigation in re lation tol the bridge over the Ohio River at Wheeling, erected under the authority of Vir ginia, which, it is confidently asserted, pots in jeopardy-(large commercial interests. It has been my £are to watch the progress of the con troversy, {and to direct the proper law officer of the Comrtionwealth, associated with'the other distinguished gentlemen who professionally re present ;the State, to protect these interests be fore the judicial tribunal which has cognizance of the bajje under the Constitution. In the (various Railroad projects now sever ally terminating at Philadelphia, Harrisburg, and Pittsburg, the people of the Common wealth ought never to lose »sight of that other great eqtjirprise which, known as the Sunbury and Erie was meant to connect the Susquehanna, the Delaware, and the Lakes.— Besides the command of trade of the Northern Sea's seqjared by its it would bring intq market for'sale and settlement vast, bodies ol! untenanted and unimproved lands, and treasures of inexhaustible miner al now.wholly inaccessible.

Fidelity in the discharge oC-CobstifutionaLduty has distin guished our government and people, and.if an opinion exists within, or has been' mischievous ly propagated beyond our borders, that-such is not the fact, it is conceived in error of onr true history. .; Pennsylvania, her, people, and her authorities, always have been loyal to the Con stitution.'’' They V9ish'it neither to be evaded nor amended!- They will not‘ permit it to be resisted. j-' ru:>. . : It has been intimated that on questions con nected with the institution of Slavery, and the rendition of fugitives' from labor, there Have been-indications of a disregard of her Consti tutional obligation. To the clause of the Con stitution relative to fugitives from labor, and the legislation under it, there ever has been m Pennsylvania, with ail her avowed aversion to domestic slavery, implicit - obedience.. ..With an earnest.desire that, by a free interchange of moderate and rational opinions, obedience to the law may be made,'not only implicit, but' cheerful, it is proper to refer to some of the difficulties in relation to the subject now exist ing in the public mind*. , The clause of the federal Constitution rela tive to fugitives fr.om labor involves these pro positions t' 1. -That irivoluntary service or sla very may exist in-the States of. the Union by sition, would be a daring violation of the clear obligations of the Constitution. No human be ing can pretend that by this Commonwealth such an interference has ever been attempted. Whatever may be the feelings of the people in opposition to the further extension of Slavery, and the consequent increase of anti-republican and sectional representation in the National Legislature, no effort has ever been made to disturb or destroy the vested rights of citizens of other States'; and .when, those rights, may be endangered by the escape of a slave beyond the limits of the State where the relation is ac knowledged, our citizens have acted on the principle, that, no sympathy with individual suffering ought ever to weaken their sense of duty to the plain requirements of the organic law. ‘ • In the adjustments of rights and official du ties under the last proposition, more difficulty has been -found to exist. By whose agency is the fugitive to be.given up ? What force is to be given to the word “claim” as used in the Constitution ? Is'hot the delivery of the fugi tive to be made only through the ageticy of the National government ? These have been vexed and mooted questions. The final decision of the Supreme Court of the*Uhited States in a case'to which Pennsylvania'was made a party, and the recent fugitive Slave law, gave a judi cial and legislative interpretation.to this clause of the Constitution, which cannot be misappre hended. The power and duty of enacting laws to carry into effect the Constitutional direction, being ruled to be in Congress, and in Congress only, and interference an the pari, of the State authorities is unauthorized and without binding force.’ .
