If the work of a Legislature can be facilitated by a full exposition of the condition of the State, its treasury, taxes, criminal laws, education and debts, our Legislature has bten provided by Cluvcruor Baker with as much help in its labors as it is possible for one man to give. His message, delivered in joint convention of the two Houses, yesterday, at two o'clock, is exhaustive. It novers every point of necessary legislation developed in the general condition of the .State, and covers it so entirely that there is little left for the individual research or suggestion of the members. If he had beeu under contract to do the Legislature's work and his own, too, be could hardly lirve done it move completely. He has made, t n consequence, it., i i.f is,. ;.. ail unusually ltjllll uic.ac, uui ciiyau i u J t , , 1 - 1 " consequence, he has left the Legislature no occasion to loos outside 01 tne uie?'sa:e lor facts and reasons for what is recommended. It is a thorough exposition of the "state of the case." and is a nionutnent of accurate investi ation as well as judi I cioU" statesmansl ip. We can not possibly attempt an epitome of it, and must con- j tent ourselves with noticing some ot its more prominent features. Frst among these is the account given of the condition of the State's debt, aud the adjustment of the claims held by the Gcueral Uovernment against her, and by her against it. This novel episode in the ordinary course of our treasury" busiuess, could not be readily understood without a great deal of explanation, involving no tittle of the history of the State debt, and this forms one of the sources of the unusual bulk of the message. borne wteks since we published a statement of this affair, but it may be as well there to repeat the substauoe of it. The General Government till recently held 211 of our State bonds issued. fur internal improvement purposes in 1S37. All the rest of oar creditors surrendered theirs, and took half their pay in the Wabash' canal and half in new bonds The Government kept what it had, and held back the money due to us from iand sales, to discharge the interest on them as far as it would go. But this did not pay it all. Last upring Govenor Morton succeeded in getting a bill through Congress to allow us to set off against these bonds and the unpaid interest, the amount that might be due us as reimbursements (if war expenses. Under that bill Adjutant General Terrell, by appointment of Governor Baker, w-ent to Washington, adjusted the unpaid interest, and redeemed oue hundred and torty-one ot me bonds that tell due in 1S57, leaving seventy stiil due, upon which interest was fully paid. The bonds have been returned aud that part of the bui ntos euded. But the Government still holds seventy of these bonds that are not due, and which caunot, therefore, be paid by amounts taken cut of our war claims. Ybat is to be done with them? Governor Baker is unwilling to recommend any ac tion, for he can see none that will not either look like repudiation, or opeu the door to demands to take the canal back and pay the half of our debt, for which it was taken, in cash. If we propose to pay the General Government, other creditors will say, "Pay us, too. You shabbed us off with a good-for-nothing canal for half of what you owed us, but wheu you come to settle with your General Government you pay her dollar for dollar in cash. SSei ve us all alike." And if we serve all alike, then we must pay the S7,500,000 for which the caual was given, and all the interest, which will be as much more, and we can't do that. Besides, as Governor Baker conclusively argues, we are prohib ited by the Constitution from doing it, even if we could. Consequently, we must either pay the Government as we have paid others, or give the owners of the Wabash and Erie Canal, now a set of cap italists who have got it as a speculation, 15,000,000 for their worthless ditch.

that is our own children, $3,591,316 15. and theVincennes University $63,585 00 Our State debt, practically, is only 3,000,000. This is a wholesome statement. It sounds cbeeringly to bear, that land is coming so near after thirty years of straggling indebtedness, often drifting close upon bankruptcy. And this is the work of Republican administrations. From the time the debt was made till Governor Hammond went out of office on the 14th of January, 1861, the Democrats held the power of the State without check or break, and during all that time, nearly a quarter of a century, the State debt was uot reduced enough to make a decent showing in the books of a bankrupt barber. The Republicans took the State and in eight years the debt is more than half wiped out. The defects in onr criminal laws are reviewed by the Governor at length and with such minuteness of inquiry into effects, and so'iudness of suggestion as to remedies, aB entitle him, lor this alone, to the thanks of our scoundrel-infested communities. In regard to the New Albany outrage he speaks with no hesitating or measured utterance. He exposes the pretense of the lynchers that they were supplying the defects of the law which corrupt courts and officers created, admirably, in the following pithy passage: "The pretext Ret up as an excuse for

resorting to such violence is that the law is powerless to punish offenses in certain districts, and that the officers of the law have proved unfaithful in the performance of their duties; and yet the men who assumed to sit in judgment upon the law aud its officers, and who enforce their own uncontrolled and irresponsible will as something above and superior to the laws of the State, do not hesitate to shoot down a sworn officer of the law engaged in the faithful performance of his duty, when such a murderous proceeding is necessary to the furtherance of their designs or to prevent their discovery and prosecu tion." He suggests that the Legislature shall offer a reward for the discovery of the men coucerned in the outrage. He also recotn mends amendments which will enable the authorities to put a short stop to prize fighting. In regard to the Agricultural College, which made some noise two years ago, he states that the land scrip given by the Government had beeu sold, converted into five twenty bonds, and now amounted to a fund of S23S.249 90. As to its disposal be thinks the Legislature should memorialize Congress to allow the interest to be applied to the common schools, until the State is prepared to advance the necessary money to provide the site and erect the buildings for the College. If this is not thought best, then he would ask the privilege to fund the interest with the principal until that time. And if neither can be done, then he would recommend th;it it be applied to the establishment of a college in connection with the State University, as that will be much cheaper than a separate establishment, but upon the express condition that when a separate college ca n be established the fund shall be withdrawn from the University. The press upon our columns forbids any move extended notice ot the message this morning, Lut we cannot dismiss it without again congratulating the Legisla ture ou the thorough exposiiiou of all the! main r-oints of its lab 'is which it baa ob- I tailie I 1'rOUl till? iuUlillOU and exhaustive i i . . t .1 .dissertation ol the j (Invprn.ir r.Iiinrn:il.

An Indiana Farmer Robbed. John Gail, a farmer from Harrison county, Indiana, was strolling over the Khine, about 1 o'clock, yesterday morning, with a friend. The two met Frank Williams and Maggie What, and were induced to accompany them to a house not far from the corner of Twelfth and Race streets. After remaining there a while the farmer and his companion tuiA their leave. They had rot go;,e far, when Mr. Gail made the discovery that his money, 700. the price of his hogs jnst sold, was gone. Returning to the house they had just left, they could get no satisfaction. Mr. G. went to the officers and related his story. The two women wete arrested j-esterday afternoon by officer Carey on suspicion of having committed the robbery, but no clew was found to the money. Cincinnati Gazette, 11th.
