Governor of New York, was read in both houses of the Legislature on the sth inst. It is distinguished by the commendable quality of bre vity, occupying but three columns of the Albany Atlas. He presents a matter-offait view of the affairs of the State. The condition of the public finances is stated : The State debt on the 30th Sept was. .... ' .. . .. ........ . . .... $9 4 , 13 :1, 0 30 95 Deducting contingent liabilities.. 23,021,080 93 Of which is canal debt , 17,028,240 13 To the extinguishment of the 'whole debt, the sum of $1,550,000 is appropriated until 1855, by the Constitution. . The revenues of the canals (including $23,101 SO tolls,) hate amounted, for the last year; to $2,842,214 13. Of this sum, after the pledges of expenses, interest, sinking fund, ecc., are provided for, there will remain $209,641 08. But this balance is not in the treasury, but has been paid to the extinjuishment of the State debt.— Theft has been also an excess of payment on the State debt, which ; if placed within the control of the Legislature will leave, with the other means mentioned, $702,276 20 to be applied to the un &fished 'works, the general resumption of which is urgently recommended. Strange as it may appear the important subject of Anti-Rentism is not once alluded to by Gov. Young! But what does the Governor care about' that party. Although elected by their votes, he is now in the Chair of State, and the interests of the Federal party will solely engross his attention. The Senate adjOurned on Tuesday after the read ing of the Governor's Message. , In the House,' Wm. C. Ilashrouch, of Orange, was chosen Speaker by a vote of 71, to :50 (or J.

For a portion of that pe riod, the public debt had increased, by the accumu lation of interest, with fearful rapidity; and at the close of the fiscal year, immediately preceding my qualification as Gore' n 3t, the arrears of interest amounted to 5143'2,131 51. • • . 000 1 I will now proceed to show that yoti will be ijuitified, without the imposition of additional tax es, in funding the arrears of interest, and in pr o . claiming the day upon which the State shall re sume the payment of all current demands upon her treasury, and thereby cast off forever the re. proach which for so many years has rested upon her and her people. I will sUppose that you will decide to fund to the let of October next, exclu sive of the interest of that quarter. This will make the interest due and to become due to that date, SI,o - ,:x.,3 3:1 The annual claims upon the Treasury consist of tie ordinary expenses of the government,whiel l may be estimated at s:,luo,riou The interest on the 'public debt, ex- elusive of the interest on the tobac. co loan, which is paid by that (rind, at 651,5Q.1 Making the present annual demands upon the Treasury $551,821 To this you must add the interest on•one mil lion two handled thousand dollars, the debt now proposed to be refunded, at such rale as in your judgment the honor of the State, and the just claims of her creditors may require you to establish. The receipts for the last year were, from the diiect tax $323,069 67 And from other sources 394,703 04 (G . - The editor of the Journal, in that flippant style peduliarly his own, though somewhat expur gated of his natural proneness to vulgarity, has seen proper to say this and say that in regard to our article headed "Silenced." He promises his - readers a review of the article,sekbespeaks their attention as he intends: to exhaust his wit in the'd• fort. We heartily rejoice in being the instrument ta prevent this hypochondric from poisoning him self with his own gall. It is a sin to attempt to stop the merriment of a man confessedly "Misera ble."

This "miserable" man has our compassion when he is waspish, for his habits have blunted the Sting in his tail. When he is disposed to be hypercriti cal, arid merry withal, we bespeak for him the largest audience Ito applaud his galvanized efforts. We cannot but be diverted at the mode the editor I of the Journal -takes to. 'exhibit his vanity. and! self-admiration.

The message is lan able document—clear, pert spicuous and Dernhczatie in all its views. That part relating to the payment of the expense of the volunteers, on their way to their place of rendez vous. wilrmeet with a hearty co-operation from the Legislature. KARL. If santsucaou, January Sth, 18413; This day, the anniversary- of the battle of. New Orleans, has been here the coldest day of the sea son. Clear and chid, with a strong north wind whirling and groaning round the - corners of the streets. Winter hits sent on in advance his Ines. senders, and we may now expect to bid farewell for a season to n blue sky and grateful sun, and plunge at once into snow, and wind, and sleet, with an occasional cloud of the blues. The Legislature !has at length titeome'organizett. The House electedliHr. James Moorhead, Sergeant iat Arms; Jacob Sanders, Doorkeeper; and 'E. 14. l3igbam, Messengdr. The Whig members may indeed be well satisfied that there elections are over, for they hate . been pestered night and day i wiib applicatiiina r4ce. The ,ssicctiortil i w. excellent, so rat. orjudgingi and !I believe every person here is also satisfied, with the exception of some disappointed ofnee7seeker— and they are always to be met with. In the House complimentary resolutions were passed in honor to the memory of General Andrew ' Jackson. How true is it, that no man is great un til the grave has closed upon his lifeless body. Ko man has been more villitied than Andrew Jackkon —no man has had to unde'rgo so much calumny and detraction—and no man has felt more the vindictiveness of pa rty irm:;' : But now how changed! His most bitter enemies hi s ive become his warmest friends: his calumniators the highest in his praise!, And there seems to! be but one wish, to remember him as a great and good man. Resolutions were also passed in the House, es• pressing the thanks of the Pennsylvania Legisla ture, in the name of the people, to General Zachary Taylor, and the brave army under his command. Thrs is all right enough, but vs by nut thank also Commodore Connor and the men under his com mand for their efficient services in the Gulf? This Legislature will be characterized by a narrow dad selfish spirits it shows itself already.' When an amendment was offeredoo the above resolution in cluding the names of Gen. Worth and General Butler, some of the Whig members opposed it bitterly, under the :chlidish excuse, that because they were not present in the battles of the Sth and Ittfl of May, no thanks should be given them. But the secret of the matter is, that they were afraid of adding to the popularity- of Gem Butler, who in the next political . campaign will be lOrominent candidate of the Defriociatie party for President of the United States, ,Such conduct should be ccn• demned which would detract from a soldier's merit, because he is a member of .a different party. There was but little business transacted in either house. . • Mr. Margie presented a petition' signed by the 111 1 members of the Pittsbu aying for the confirmation of the ap . W. H.

This is a proud speetacle for every - honest hearted Pennsylvanian, May it ever be-thus! In this generous.i rivalry, I rejoice' that "Chu Reims" has maintained her accustomed patriotic position.
