The industrial pursuits and monetary Interests of the State hare become greatly depressed, the wealth of many of her leading capitalists and most public spirited citimns has been wholly swept away, the business of her .corporatlrms paralyzed, the machinery- of her manufactories arrested, her mineral, Iron, oil, end other pm (tactical greatly depreciated In value, and pov erty and want brought to the firesides of the humble homes of thousands of her honest and industrious citizens, who toll for their daily breed. To remedy these evils, under which all our Industries are languishing, an far as relief can be administered by legislation, It is barely necessary to sumzest, should he the first duty of your honorable bodies—n duty which 1 feel as sured will be undertaken with care and &fiber. mien, invoking to its aid a lair share of human ity and the highest practical wisdom. In any measures looking to this object it will be my pleasure heartily to co-operate. IZEEME! It is gratifying to observe that while many o t'‘e mos: eutenential securities in the crusrite were more or less depressed during the recent panic, the thmnces of the State were unahsken ethibiting, tounist skald*, evidence of the stabili ty of the State credit.
