tory and from thesorerignityover the territory;
; and to whom did she transfer it ? She transferred
tho territory and the soverignily of the territory to

[O&thb other pro poahioh, that no slavery was

- other truth'which i respectfnllyand with

- -’ ;i -r through them, and jyour people and yourselves at

Vtfurwbea you came from home, at the Ome yon

Ae people of the tlareboldmg Statea-leime snp
posathatall thia had been known at the North at
tbetime when the agitation waa first got np op*
on the subject of this Wilmot proviso—do yon be
fore that it would bare eror reaehed the height
to which It has attained! Doanyooeofyon be-
Eereit! And if, prior toyoar departure from
your respectire home*, yon had had an opporto*
oUy of conferring with . your constituents upon
ihis most leading and important the adop
tion of a constitution excluding ilareryin Cali*
fern ia—do you not belie re, Senators and Bepre
ecntatircs coming from the free States, that if yon
had had the advantage of that fist told in serious,
ealm, fireside conremtidn with your constituents,
they would not hare told you to come hem end to

to this Union?
. What do youwaai 7 . What do you want who
reside la the free State*? You vast that there
ahallbe no slavery introduced into the territories
acquired from Mexico. Well, have not you got it
in California already, if admitted a* a State? Have
not you got it in New Mexico, in all human pro*
liability, also? What more do you want? You
hare got what is worth a thouaand Wtlmot prori

Yon hare the tact itaelfou your aide. You hare

cnee offois glorious Ualon. ... 1
Well, Mr. President, I think, entertaining these
views, that there was nothing extrartgant in the >
tope in which I indulged at the time these reso
lutions were prepared and offered ex
travagant in the hope that the North might con*
tent itself even with striking out aa enneoeasary
these two declarations. They are unnecessary
for any purpose the free Stales hare in view.—
At all events, if they should insist upon Congress
expressing the opinions which are here asserted,
that, at all events, they should limit their wishes to
the simple assertion of them,'without iturtiogoa
their bung incorporated in any Territorial Gov«
eminent which Congress may establish in the Ter
ritories. "J
-On the third resolution, in reference to the
boundaries of Texas, Mr. Clay enters into a long
and most elaborate argument toxhow that his pro*
position does no injustice to that Stale, and that
Congress has foil powers to regulate her bound*
aries, and that the State can appeal to the judg
ment of the Supreme Court if aha feels aggrieved.
When the boundaries of a State are once Indis
putably set*led,Mr. Clay admits Congress has no
power over foe subject; but foe western bounds,
ries oi Texas are wholly unfixed and uncertain,
and'asthe United Stales purchased certain tenv
tones from Mexico, for which she had paid fifteen
million* of dolls had aright to insist upon the
posaetsionof what the had purchased, unless Tex
as could.show a better right to it.
[We hare brought our readers to the close of
foe first day’s effort of Mr. Clay. On commenc
ing foe second day, foe orator said:—l
"Mr. President, if there be ia this rwt assem
blage ofgreee, betuty, elegance, and Intelligence,
anf who have come here under the expectation
that the hemble individual who now addresses
you, mean* to attempt any dlsplsy, or to use any
ambition* language, any extraordinary ornaments
or decorations of epeeeb, they will be ntterly dis
appointed. This season of the year, end my own
season of life, both admonish me to abstain from
the nse of any such ornament*; but, above aD,
Mr. President, thewofol subject upon which it is
my dnty to address the Senate and the country,
forbids my aaying any thing bnt what appertains
strictly to that subject} and my sole desire is to
make myself with eeriousnesi, soberness, and
plainness, understood by yon, and by those who
think proper to listen to me.”
After a few explanatory remarks In reference
to the boundaries of Texas, Mr. Clay took np the
sth resolotion,declaring it to be inexpedient to abol
ish slavery in the District of Columbia, without
the consent of Maryland and the people of the
District. The power ©1 Congress to abolish ala.
very in that District was most dearly and logical/,
ly shown; but good faith and justice required that
the consent oi Maryland and the dtiaens of the
District should be hid: fie next took tip the 6th
resolution, in favor of the abolition of the slave
trade in the District of Columbia. On this reso
lution ho
."Weij; then, air, I really do not think that this
jretehilion, which proposes to abolish that trade,
ougbtto be considered as s confession by either
dasrofSkties to the other) class. C think It should
be regained as an object acceptable to both, corn*
formibleto the wishes and feelings of both; apd
yet, air, in there times of fearful and alarming ex*
die me at—in there limes when every nigbllbst Igo -
ip every morning when I awake, it iawith
the apprehension of some new sod terrible tiding?
upon this agitating subject—l have seen, sir, that
in one oftbe neigeboring States, amongst the va
rious contingencies which are enumerated, upon
the happening of any one of which delegates are
to bo sent to a frmcos convention to assemble in
Nashville In Jane next—amongst the substantive
causes for which delegates are to be seat to the
convention to which 1 refer, one is if Congress
abolishes slavery within the District of Columbia.
That is to be m cause for assembling in oenven*
lion—in other words, cause for considering
whether this Union ought to be dissolved or not
Is it possible to .contemplate a greater extent of
wildness and extravagance to which men can be
carried by the Indulgence of their passions 1 Why,
sir, there has been no time in my pnblie life—in
which statement I eoocnr with what was said the
other day by the honorable senator from Alabama.
(KnwJ—there has been no time of mylpublic life that
I vu no: cooperate in any steps
for lbs abolition ol the slave trade in iho District of
Colombia. I was wi iting to dp so while the other por
tion oftbe District sooth of the Potomac remained
attached; and there ia still less ground forobjection
now that larger portion eftbe District bas been
retroceded to Virginia, and when the motive or
reason for concentrating slaves hero in a depot,
for the purpose of tranaportiig themto distant for
eign markets Is lessened to the extent of the dim*
inntioa of the territory by .the set of reirooessios.
Why should the slave traders who boy their
•laves in Maryland or Virginia come here with
them, in order to transport them to New Orleans
or other sostberu markets? Why not transport
them in tbo States in which they see purchased?
Why nhoold the feebogj of those who are outra
ged by the scenes that are exhibited, by the eotu
gtt which pats along our avenues of menoeled
human.befngc—not? collected in onr own District,
nor in our own neighborhood, bat brongbt from
distant portions of the neighboring States—why
should the feeliogs of those who are outraged by
such ecenes—who are unable to contemplate
each aspect acle without honor-why should they
he thus outraged by the continuance of a trade so
exceptionable, so destable as this? Sir, Uis a
concession, I repeal, neither from one class oftbe
States nor (he other. It is an object upon which
both of them, it seems to me, should readily anile,
and which one set of Stales cs well as the other
should rejoice to adopt, ioaamneb as it lessens by
one the cau*e% of irritationjand discontent which
exist as connected with the subject
On the 7th resolnlion, to provide'moro adequate
measures for the restitution of fagitive slaves,
Mr. Clay dwelt at some length, at a measure of
justice and good neighborhood, and aa required
by the Constitution- On the last resolution, in re.
lalion to the slave trade between thej Stales, he
dwelt oaiy a few moments. Having disposed of
the whole series of tho resolutions, Mr. Clay ens
lered upon the general subject in a moat masterly
and eloquent manner, the whole of which we
w;sh our readers to have the pleasure of reading,
and shall not therefore attempt an abbreviation.
This we will try and give to morrow, although it

Mr. Cliy concluded his great speech to day. ll
via, throughout, a great eflort, although the sec

to the first Tho audience wna,‘aa before, as large
as the capacity of the chamber Would admit of,
but KKao judicious arrangement* were made to
keep out of the passages (ho crowds of people
anxious to hear, but who eould by no possibility
do so, ou account oftheir distance from the speak
er. This was a great improvement upon the dis
positions of yesterday. At’present I will any no
thing more upon Mr. play's speech than that it
wui worthy of hia exalted reputation, and came
up i o the expectations of his friends. Of course
it contains passages that will excite displeasure,
and unfavorable comment* upon both »ides, but
this I will tay, though I have just engaged to aay

memory of deceased members, ai the public eost
Already three days of this session have been con
sumed In the celebration of these constructive fu
nerals. -Now, as . the daily expenses.of ftragreas
an at least five thousand dollars, it appears that
fifteen thousand dollars have' been misapplied for
the sake of compliments to the surviving relatives
of gentlemen who weronot, in truth, in the public
service at the time of their decease.
In the House ire. have bad several matters of
interest. The purchase of the manuscript of
Washington’s Farewell Address bas been order*
ed, by the vole of 103 to 45. It is an interesting
relic, and' it la proper that it should be in the pos
session ■"<* custody of the government, though I
am far from stfafthfag that importance to it that
some gentlemen have done. Stephens, of Geor*
gia/made a speech In favor or it that I heard
eloquent, but in reference to which I have
only to remark that patriotic speeches are well in
wsy, but they are a very poor atonement for
the unpatriotic acts of which this same Mr. Ste*
has been guilty here this winter.
Mr. Boyd, Chairman of the Committee on Terri
tories, submitted a series of resolutions upon the
Nicaragua business, which are at least as long as
his Mosquito majesty’s tunic. .They went to reas
sert the Monroe declaration against colonisation,
by European powers, on thtycontinent, dec., Ate.
When on! of office these democratic diplomatists
are wondvrfally patriotic and warlike, quite ready
to fight nil the world, with or without notice; but
surely.it would be well to refresh tbeir memories,
occasionally, with Polk’s clear sad unquestionable
title to alt of Oregon, and the sneaking abandon
ment of half of it;
I had intended to refer more at length to the in
teresting debate of Monday last, ia the Senate, up
on the census, but I now find that I must content
myself with a very cursory allusion to it. It has
become a somewhat complicated business Last
winter n law was passed constituting a board to
devise end prepare the necessary form?, and to
make the most judicious and efficient errssge
meals for the taking of too census. This board
was to consist of the Secretary of State, the At*
torney General, and the Postmaster General, and
a Secretary. Joseph C. G. Kennedy, Esq., of Pitts
burgh, was appoytted Secretary, and has been in-
eogjged, for the last nine or ten
months, in the 1 duties of his employment Mr.
Kennedy jhas tho reputation ol being a Very able
and competent gentleman for the task assigned
him, and |hss executed it, I hear, in a complete
and satisfactory manaer, having prapared all the
requisite forms for the enumeration of inhabitants,
and for the very important work ofcollecting sta
tistics. These forma have been printed, in large
numbers, as, of eonne, was requisite, and the
entire cost of preparation, printing, paper, fcc., Is
said to have been $20,000. But the Census Com*
mitteecf the Senate have raised a question as to
the power of this board, tod have decided, it
seems, to reject the whole of Ua labors, except in
ao tar as they have been adopted as these of the
Committee. The bill from the Committee propo
ses an appropriation of about $1,200,(W0 for the
' entire cost of taking the census, and $211,000 for
. printing thrtreturnt. The points of difference and
debate in the Senate are, whether the forms and
, BBggestioos of the Census Board or of the Ceases
, Committee shall be adopted, and whether.the
: patronage arising from the printing shall be dis
[ peused by the Secretary of the interior, or be lav
i by Congress upon some starving Democrat
jo favorite. I -shall watch the progress of this
1 “ very pretty quarrel ” with some interest.
Wasuokitor, Feb. 7,1850.
Rumors— Negotiations upon the Ultra
gus PUBcnltle—Appropriation—Reck
less eonne of, the OppoilUost-Aiianlti
ou the Home Deportment—Revenue,
I have noticed in some of my recent letters,
various remora ia reference to the pending nego
tiations with the British Government, relative to
affair* tn Central America. At the risk of being
thought much too attentive to such ansnbstaotial
things, I will state that the best Informed persons
here do not believe that any treaty hat been made
or is soon likely to be made, or that the oegatia
tfon upon the ■•"■»>* was begun ia London or
haa been transferred to Washington.
The Committee ot Ways and Means has not yet
condescended to open its budget, - aitaough the
thirty dap within which all of the leading appro*
priation hills ought to have been reported have
expired and passed. I learn that it ia possible
that one or two ol them may be forthcoming on
the first of next week. Ooe moat important and
unexpected decision has been made in the Com*
mi nee. It is, that no part of the appropriation
asked for by the Secretary of the InteriorshaU be
allowed, except those already specified iq the law
creeling the Department. It is generally remem-*
bered that the bill for the establishment of the
Home Department passed the Senate on the last
night of the last session, (bough it had passed
the Hence months before. There was do time,
therefore, for putting into any appropriation oi
that session the requisite items for the pay of the
few additional clerks, messengers, Accn that would
be required io the organisation oi the Department
Mr. Eying was therefore compelled to engage:
suitable persons upon the stipulation that they
should give tbeir services wi.hout receiving any
compensation until it thonld be provided fn the
appropriations of the present session. The van
extent of the dnties and the amount cfbusinsu
thrown upon the new Department rendered it one
of toe most laborious, responsible, sud Important,
under the Government. The employment of a few
persons upon.the condition mentioned was indis
pensable,.and was resorted to as the f.oly prac
ticable meant of keeping up tho business.—
The report is that the Committee have cot only
refused to appropriate for the future employment
of clerks, but even to sliow them say pay
for tbeir past I believe the amount cow
duo them, for about service, is some
tea or twelve thoaesnd dollars.
There is no doubt that all this indieates a de
termined purpose lo repeal the law establishing
this Department. The attempt will be made ooi
of pore rancour towards Mr. Ewing and the ad
monition, and u a part of a general plan of attack
upon tho latter and all belonging to or connected
with it.
The debate open the expenses of collecting the

Tbo President's weekly levee, held ibis even*
Ing vai, as umal, a orowded and brilliant affair.
Many diatinguised visiters at the metropolis were
there, at well as gentlemen belonging to both
Houses of Congress, heads of Department*, and
members of the Foreign Legations. These week
ly rtnnwtu at the While House are a practical
answer to all tho diatribes of the Washington
Union, assorting a decline in the popularity of
General Taylor eioce he became President. At
no time since the death of General Harrison has
the occupant of the White House received sneb
flittering t-f»«ninniala of the esteem and respect of
his follow cftisens. Mr. Tyler being politically
dead, and, fortunately for him, forgotten, It would
not be banting to refer particularly to the soda 1
phase of the administration, during that singular
parenthesis in the annals of our’government, but
it is a matter of notoriety and recent recollection,
that, during. Mr. Polk’s tens, -the Presidential
Mansion was, exeept on occasions of public let
livity, a house of comparative silence andgloom,
like "a banquet hali deserted.* Things are chang
ed now. Without masie, without any aitificitl
stimulant by way of attraction, the room* for pub*
lio reception are AIM by gay and delighied crowds-
The ease and affability of the President, the
grave courtesy of Colonel Bliss, and the; qolst
grace of his lady ’aß unite to render these, social
meetings, in which all clauses
pleasant and popular affairs of the kind which
Washington has witnessed for many years.
X oadenundihit the Chairman of the
tee cfForeign Eolations, in the House, will bring
the matter of tbe Nicaragua negotiations before*
the House, ia a ifi&t time, in no unfriendly spiri
to the administration. The course »vkfu by Ur.
Clayton, who is vigorously prosecuting this negtw
tuition with Sir Henry Bnlwer, is generally *p*
proved of by the Democrats themselves, and they
will feel compelled to tupportUbeforethe country.
The' long reaotntian* offered by Boyd, yesterdayi
relative to this branch of the business of the State
Department, were prepared, no doubt, by Mr.
Hise, who claims to have made e doses or twoof
most important treaties with Central America, of
the merits of all of which Mr. Clayton has shown
such a very slight appreciation, as to throw them
under hia table. Probably the whole of Mr. Hoe’s
diplomatics labor?will be laid before Congress, sad
it will then be seen what a precious batch of flum
mery they constitute.
It u enough to say of the present state of the ne
gotistionjhatevery thing is (a atninof satisfactory
adjustment, and that Tigre Island will be ours If
we want it, and that the making of the canal will
be left open to the competition of the enterprise of
tho world, as after its completion, it will be free to
the commerce of the world. ' Juious.

Correspondence of the Pittsburgh Oiutli.
Hauuucao, Feb. 7,1830.
But little business was done in tbe H nn »* to
day, exoept ot a private and local character. 1
believe there was nothing whatever done, of pub*
lio interest, exeept the passage of abill io favor of
the Pennsylvania Instimtion for the instruction of
the blind. This bill appropriates $15,000 for spe
cific purpose*, tn addition to the annual appropria
tion of $9,000 alramdy^granted.
The pupils of this Institution have been nera for
two or three days, exhibiting their proficiency in
the different branches of education taught in the
Instimtion, to the members of the Legislature;
which may account-far ihe liberal appropriation
modo this morning. I observed that several of
the pupils of both sexes were in the Hall of the
House whoa the bill passed. They gave a free
Concert last evening, at',the Court .House, which
was more folly atieoded than we have ever seen
an exhibition ot the kind in tha ptatoe. The bouse
was a perfect jam; and every body seamed to be
highly gratified. The musio was really excel*
lent, the reading good, and all the exercises
showed e proficiency oi the highest order. The
concert will be repeated to night.
In the Senate, the bill appropriating $15,000 for
the iostiimioQ for tbe uutruction oftbe blind, was
taken up and pasted without discussion. The
appearance of the pupils was the very best argu
ment that could have been made upon tbe sub
ject.
The bill providing for tbe election of a reporter
of the decisions of the Supreme Court, occupied
the remainder of the day. This is another Loco*
foco trick, to rob the present Whig Executive of
the patronage which his Loco loco predecessors
have been permitted to enjoy without t murmur.
The following is the Apportionment Bill which 1
•poke of a few days ago. You will sea at a glance
what a gross fraud and iniquity the Locofooos are
striving to enact.

In the House or Representatives, to day, Mr.
Porter, of Northern pton,occupied the Chair by Ifae
appointment of the Sneaker, who is lying sick at
hie hotel.
After the morning buainets had been got through
with, Mr. 'Coroyo resumed hit remarks (n refer
eoceto the proposed amendment of the Constitu*
tiop. a'nd concluded the very able and poweifol
speech which he commenced on Wednesday last,
in opposition to the amendment. Tbesubjectwsa
farther debated by Messrs. Biddle, Steele, Allison,
Bromer eadlFinlelter, the last of whom eccupied
the fl»r wtec the House adiourned. All
then list bamed gentlemen spoke in favor
of the bill,and many of them with more than
ordinary eloquence and force. The speech
of Mr. nromer, especially,was marked with eve
ry high degree jpf oritorical power, and made a
deep impresaioojipon (bo House, If it bad requi
red any argument to convince the House of the
propriety of this measure, the able .speech of this
gentleman would have gone for towards the ac*
complishment of that result. But thefact is, there
U 1 ardly a dissenting voice In the House, and the
bill wil be pasted almost unanimously. T doubt
whether a tingle man here will vote against it, with
the exception of Means. of Huntingdon,
and Porter of Norlhampton,and they aoem to dis
like the form of the amendment, rather than the 1
principle of popular election itself.
In the Senate, Mr. Freomau read in hit place,
a bill for the relief of the officers and soldiers of
Pennsylvania, who served in the war with Mex
ico.
Mr. Dtrsie, also, read in hit pliee, a bill to an*
thorite the School Directors of the 6th Ward Pitts
burgh, to borrow money; and alto a supplement
to the net 10 incorporate tho Monongakela naviga*
lion Company.
The Senate then resumed the consideration of
the bill providing for the election of the Reporter
of tho decisions of the Supreme Court, by a joint
btilat «f the two Houses of the Legislature, in
stead of Executive appointment, as the Isw now
provides. The debate was oontinued with great
warmth up to the hour of adjournment. Unfortu
nately, two of the Whig members of tho Sonste
have been absent for a few days; and tho Loco*
locos have eeixed the occasio&to pass this billj but
some how or other their flans were not well cast,
as they have thus for foiled to bring the question to
-a final note,' notwithstanding the previous ques
tion has been several times demanded, with a view
of cutting off all fcrtfaer debate, and fordngthe
matter to an issue. It is understood thslthesbeent
members wilt return, so as to be fn their places on
Monday. If the final question should not, there

The sewn from California has not ctnsed die
venal buoyancy, though the advices are u golden
as the moat excited eonld hope for. The actual
amnnr|i of gold brought by the ship ia foil two and
a quarter millions, of which more than half is is
the hands of passengers, in small amounts, that is
front one to twenty thousand dollars. Private
letter* and the accounts of passengers are alike
gloomy as to the sanitary condition of the people
of San Francisco. Bilious complaints prevail, to
gether with ague and chronic diseases peculiar lo
the west coast The great rash of passengers by
the Empire (Sty is not made up of people who
have made their fortunes, but or those who flee
for life, and from a feeling that after all the 4 ‘odd
counlhrv 1 ’ has still fortunes to be won by the pru
dent and energetic.
AU tho gold which hu come into Wall street
does not cause a tithe of the feeling which hu
been created by the annunciation that a son of
Mr. cashier of tho Bank of the State
of New York, ia * fugitive from justice, accused
of the murder of a man in cold blood. Mr. With
ers, senior, is one of the most estimable of our citi
zens, and the blow has fallen heavily upon him.
: The alcalde, who offer* a reward for the arrest of
the fogitive, was recently a clerk in one of our
Wall street bonks, and his last operation was the
baa of a bank pocket book, with a largo sum of
taken in connection with the fact of
bis regular attendance at a ‘gambling hell,” pro
cured his discharge, and bis oltimtto accession to
the petty magistracy of California.
The arrival of the California delegation to Con
gross will harry Congress In Us deliberation*.
California hu came, and there is no denying her
admission. To swell the curious circumstances
attendant upon the admission of onr new sister,
we have two Senators from Slavo Slates, tent to
represent free California—Dr. Gwinn of the South,
and Col. Fremont of Missouri.
The Hague street explosion appears to have
been' as disastrous as the first accounts promised.
Fifty bodies have been found, and the removal of
the’rnbbish not yet accomplished. A mere horrid
spectacle than the remains of these unfortunates
the Imagination cannot plclnre, and the heart sick
ens st the sight. The Coroner means to iavesti*
gate the causes of the accident closely; bnt all is
explained before he commences: —the machinery
wu perfect, and the accident the result of gross
negligence on the part of the engineer.
In tho money market, there is a perceptible
change, and the rate of discount is full seven per
cent for good paper, and eight and nine per cent.
for common names* Call loans could bo done at
six per eenu, knd the banks show no inclination
to refuse all the good notes of short date offered.
Oo landed property there is still a good deal of
money offering, but there are few borrowers; most
speculators in real estate, preferring to realize at
the present advance, which allows fortune* to be
: pocketed. Slocks are dull and drooping.
In the markets there is a good degree of ani
mation. Cotton sells at the rale of 1000 bales per
day to spinners, bnt prices are rather weak. For
floor (he demxnd is confined to the home iradi
and the supply of tho eastern states. Corn is more
inquired for, and prices are rather belter, • Pork is
doll; new mess, $11; prime, $9 00. Lord sells at
6}osf for barrels. Plain hams, 6f. Cheese has

gone up |e, with sales at 6107. Hotter is also
wanted, and firmer. Lead is firm, and held at
$4 7505. Spices are firm, and nutmegs held five
oenla higher. Hides are firm, and prices fully
supported, leather is also higher, aod the (op rates
of the season treaty paid. Teas arc much apecn*

rise In ccffce, the place of which wifi be supplied
by tea. Cheap Canton made tea usually sold at

Some of the papers tell IhcfollowiDg story of

"nothing about marine affairs, as was the nswly

FriMlicoMPrlee* of ProrLalon*.
The Empire City, Capt. Willson, arrived at ber
dock, about 13 o'clock last night, after a passage
cf ten days from Chagrcs. Sue brings 257 pas
. sengers, and about one aad a half millions in gold
dust.
Tbe Empire City does Dot bring the msilr, and
we ar<i indebted to Francis W. Rtcr, E*q., one of
theEditoraof tbe Pacific Courier, for a brief ay-,
nopsia of affairs in California.
The mails will be brought on by the Feleor.
Ur. R ce came from Ssn Francisco to Panama, iu
tbe atcamer Oregon. The Oregon brought dawn
three million! in gold dim !!
The Message of Governor Bnruett disappoints
many of his friends. As a liicnuy production it
wiU not-Bttract very general attention tor liselc*
gance, clearness or comprehensiveness. Many
important matters are merely starred over, while
not a syllable is altered upon the subject of Edu
cation. Tbe Governor teems to be id doubt as to
whether the Legislature ahoold proceed at once
to frame important laws for the governance of the
State, or await the action of Congress upon tbe
Constitution.
With regard to the Civil and Criminal oode, tbe
Message recommends the adoption oi “the defini
tion of tbe crimes and misdemeanors contained in
tbe Common law of England—the English Law
ol Evidence—the English Commercial. Law —tbe
Civil Code of the State of Louisiana—and the
Louisiana Code of Practice.
Tbe Governor eitimates the current expenses
of the State for the first year at $500,000. To
meet this large aum, the menage recommends
the immediate Imposition of a puli tax, and a.tax
upon real and personal property, “in proportion to
itevalue.” The recommendation that no person
who may neglect to pay bis taxes, shell bo per
mitted to bung a civil suit in any Court In- the
State, until arrearages are paid, will not be a
foaultrmove.
-The Governor also, while he says nothing
agVnat Chinete, Kaaackerr, debased Chilinos,
Sydney thieves, and other outsiders, coming free*
ly into tbe State, recommends the eztlusion, in to*
to, ef frm tttgrou. He thinks that if allowed to
immigrate, they will form contracts in the South
ern Silica for one or more years with their mas.
ten, and thus be, to all intents and purposes,
slaves. We think this objection m»y be oaxiiy got
over by the Stales declaring all such contracts null
android. We do not perceive that tho Message
treat! of any other matters of note.
