I approach the dlaharKd of tbo labors of this hUH trust witti a fall iense of the responsibility involved, but with a determination to perform the duties of the otfica Jaithfu'lr for the public (fool: aad to that end 1 solicit jour earnest co-o Deration and suoporL You are convened by virtue of the Constitution to enact such laws as will promote education, suppress vice and immorality, punish crime, protect tne rigata of pernoa and pronerty, advance the general welfare of the p-2opb. and the prosperity of tbe fetale, thu coatlnalnj to exalt Xhe renown of this treat Kepablic, of which Iauiana Is so cojpicaoai an integral part, ever jalndfnlthat a republican form of government can not endure looger than simplicity, integrity nd economy characterize its administration and fidelity marks the conduct of its pubhc servants. Tüa political strnrgle, tiUte and National, through whicn we nave recently passed stirred theocoaaof our polities a a mighty etorm, and like nature's provision for purifyin? her great todies of water by agitation of the t3mp?st, it is hoped will eliminate the Impure dementi from our political sea, purify the boJy politic, and record lu tbe history of our Governreat one? store the commecccment of an era of retreach-li-cut and reform. "IHK TRINCITLES ITOX WHICH Ol'S GOVZRSMEXr 13 FOCNbKD, nd undsr which we have increased frjni thir teen 10 thlMy-ebjht SUtes wltn lare areas yet unorganized, create vast an 1 varied interest) wnicü naturally divide public opinion as to tae policy ot tbe Governmeat. The continuance of . oar national exi.st?neo and pronoerity, depending upon a wise and honest administration of tha vowers and flutte of the Governmeat, will alwsys dovelop political dU-ienion and creite party dlvuious, thus periodically arousia tha mapjies to pas judgment upon alleged evils of IcpUIitioa and deviation from constitutional principle. A checa Hput upon maladministration, xefürms are pewebly brought about, the Government pohcr a to treat polUlcal quenioas is dlrectel and determined as a majority may dexaand. The present depressed condition ot the business . and industrial interest of the country invites the careful attention and study of the legislator. Tbe earta has yielded bountiful harvests, pro.lece is abundant, all of the material far aciive uinees and increased prosperity seems to exist. V t the last year has witnessed a succession of s saures anddUasters amDnthe commercial, inJaitrialand financial initltutloniof the country ; that baa shaken confidence and seriously dlaI tnrbed the bn&ine&a Interests of the whole land. I The rapidity with which colossal fortunes have ' "been accumulated in late years by private inll- - vlduals ; the development and f Mterinz of railway ' smd other coporate bodies of vast wealth by Government aid; the afreation of the money of our country in various combinationi of power, and the influence which they exercise la shaping legislation, raises the Inquiry whether legislation has not been too much in the interest ot capital anl wealth, and a tin it the industrial xniues of the onutry. The laborin? clasaea constitute a erett portion ot our pooalation, and to this element wo are iarraly Indebted for our prosperity. ihey compriae la a exeat measare the honest,

LEGISLATION. Tbe closip? dsys of our biennial ssioo-; of the Iaii-'.atuie are invariably lloled wit'a a miss of bill, all demanding immediate anion. By reason of üßsto acd coalus oa many of them bvome laws that are carekf sly framed and not properly matured and considered. I sincerely hopj you

rnny be able to adopt some rule or regulation that will to tome extent aold the evils atteuilas tais recurring condition of legislative affairs. There H not rauca danger ot erring oa the Bile ot too Utile law. Ihe world is governed toa much, and that was undoubtedly the principle that governed the framers of our Constitution in restricting the Isnirta of onr legislative tensions. The fact that auch provision has bean to long sanctioned by tbe people without an elicit u chaLga it, ariues well in wisao as a ueaiure tending to serve tho bst interest of all toe people of the state. IIeaC3 it b?co Jies a inatur 01 duty for each member to diligently and earnestly co operate wlia his ffcllav memoers in peritctlbg acd advancing the uost important lobulare, and among the mot important are tiioe ne deo for ihe rapport of the State aad ll iiiktitutioas.

ALIEN LAW. I would, however. Invite your attention to the act of our Lezislatute of 1SS1 giving aliens the rJaht to aconlre. hold and convey real estate. This is euch an innovation upon the epirit ot cur Institutions that tad same is open to criticism, and. in mr Judgment, demands your consid eration as to its necessity, and. If deemed necesrary, whether the same is properly guarded In its provisions to prevent vast lanoed monopolies by alien?, which, by slow and insiduons Krowth, may become detrimental to the laterets ot tac state, cour.T. Section 1 of Article 7 or our State Constitu tion proviies that "The judicial power of tne btate snail be vetted In a Supreme Court, in Cir cuit Courts and in such other courts aj tao Gen eral Assembly may establish." The amendment to this Ecc tion adopted in lrll, by waiea its provision were enlarged, was clearly the raj alt nf TMn of aciration brought aboat bv th llmiteU judicial power of the State ead a demand for r!iaf from the delays attending the constant increasing bnidr ess of our Supreme Court. The act f the General Assembly of 1SSI In creat ing the oCices of Supreme Court Comtniwioaeri and the re-enaetment of In; 3 extending their term for two years were both legislative expressions in response te the requirements ot this amendment of the Constltutiou in lwi, whicawts undoubt edly adopted to give the LeiUlaturd consti tutional authority to enablun other courts than the circuit and Suprene in order tha: tha administration of jtist'.ca misht be lacllitated and the busintcs of the su preme Court thereby la.encd to such an extent as would enable it to promptly consider and decide, as contemplated by the Constitution, the questions appealed to It for judicial determination. In view of tbj fact that nearly 700 cues ara cow rending in the Supreme Court, after four yeanr arduous atd of tbe Supreme Court Commis loners, I submit lor your consideration tha question of the expediency of condnuing ta commission as a means of accomplishing the judicial relief contemplated by the constitutional amendment, and earntitly Invite your attention as to waiaer or rot the practical working and effect of the commission is no; In vioiatloa oi the Intendment of stations 2 and b of Article .7 of the Constitution. It seems to me that litigants are entitled to nave their matttrs in controversy decided by the coart euabltined by too Coasutu tion. in many casoa they do not get this rliht under tte working of Rules 2 and 3 of tho Suprems Coart for the government of Its comrnwloaers. Tne Supreme Court under th03s rules decides causw tz furred to the commissioner upon tha opinion rendered by tne commlsiioners. aud not upon the question arising in the record a3 required by taa constitution. 1 am aware that the Supreme Court Is compellsi to such a course In order to make the libors of tat commissioners available, but it raises tag query whether practically it does not msks tne Supreme Court to consist of tea juo?es when the Constitu tion says It shau not conaLst ot more than are. INDIANA CNXVIESITT. The educational interests of the State ara worthy of your careful consideration and generous sup port. In addition to the ordinary aud necsssary needs of our educational institutions, it would not be improper for me to call your attention to tne great io&s sustained by the Indiana university since the last meeting of the Legislature. One of th9 main buildings, as well as the library aud museum, hive been destroyed by fir. The extent of the loss, ai well as the alms and hopes for the future cf that Institution. Is set for in m tne report of the Trasteei to the oovernor. The8tate can afford, bv a rsasonable aooroarlatlon. to second the erforta of the Trustees to buil t tip a university as the head of our common school system of the State, whose position ot mieialneas wui do extenaea ana perpetuate!. rLxurto rxscMONiA. Tour attention Is called to the alarmin r snreal of pleuro-pneumonia among the cattle of oar sister dtates of Ohio, Illinois aal Keatu;, aal

that orrr own State is threatened with the invasion of said disease which Is said to be both contagious and infectious and has already caased disastrous results to the live rto:k inversus of those 8;atea. Timely precautionary cittsnrea may to a large extent save the tattle interests ef lna!aoa from tae ravages of this disease. The consideration of the same is submitted for sa:a acuoa as in your jadment it may demaai. OXTTY?BUEO. I am adrfced that several of the SUtei which furnuhed regiments of volunteers in the Federal Army that participated 1j tae bi'tle of Getty burg, have mala anprooriitioas for !ha parp n of erecting tablets to mirx the position o:cu?lsd by their troops in ihat great and doci-iive event.

I am informed that of the sum of 35, C00 allotted to Indiana by the Commissioners of the World's Cotton and Industrial Exposition, no open at New Orleans, but a Bmli portioa remains far the further uso of tho CommUsioaers of our State. It can readily bo conceived how laadequato this sum would be if a fnli representation was male of lcdiana's material and industrial forces. It is not a display of fabrics and wealth to excite jealous rivalry for superiority in methods of production or resources, however varied or rich they may be. It i3 a Nation's ambition, uniting the arts and sciences with the genius of advanced thinkers, of prodncdons ol no; only ol our own country, but all nations, froa wnich we as a paooie must be greatly beneiited, for while the commerce of older countries snail bring thither their trophies of handiwork, skill and products, the spirit of oar development in agriculture, alone, will seu upon whatever may be distributed to oar vast end almost Umhieb domain to the pronto' American gettiu. hue other States have deemed it wi?e to all to the sum thus allotted to tnem, if it khail b thought best to the further and complete khowiug of Indiana's Productive gro.vth, industrial aad mineral wealtn. to add to this sum iu a laeatura h utiic lent only to make sure Mat we rhi.il uoi. fail Jti tdandiaf whsre wj rlghfcl'y b.'lon, seoond to no Slate, euch appropriation will ujet" iny approval.

To this end, 1 uu iersund, a large and sur:i:leat fum has been set apsrt.

If the ortu khall send down her rciimouti of men, not a? sue did twenty years ago to the sound of iaart:al drum boats but to the mu.ic ol "pUnug times" of pjace. nothing, I bel.eve, could so tiroily reunite tae lilowfchip born of a Cfnimou heritage, aad which wouia givo assurance, that wuen me foldiers of a Kation' wi oliava boruo arms usainst eaca other can cone together aa brouiris, htIIo can nver t-rtin com"? bcureeu u -i as a peo;.lo.

The Convention then adjourned. THE (lOYEnSOS's RECEPTION. The corridors and paTlora of the Bates Houe were handsomely decorated last evaamp, aDd many guests were assembled in honor cf Governor Gray and to participate in his first reception. The windows and casings were elegantly trimmed, and flowers decorated the window-seata throughout the hcte). Tho asembla?a was one of the larreai thai ever met together on such an occasion in this city, and represented the wealth, eauty ana talent of Indianapolu soslety. There were fully ."00 ladies and gentlemen in attendance, and a sociable and en joy ab time was experienced by all. Th9 members cf both branencs of tne Legislature, the State officers and many well-known citizans, accompanied by their wives and daughters, tool: advantage cf the occasion to meet the new Governor and extend him the hand of congratulation. A-band was pre3ent during the evening and entertaiued the guests with music Governor and Mrs. Gray were intrtduced to the gncst?, and when this formality bad been completed the ladies and gentlemen congregated in groups about the hoc-Ee and exchanged many pleasant and friendly greetings. "After an hour of social intercoursa the doorj oi the dancing-ball were thrown open and the dancers entered, the space not thus occupied being crowded with those who enjoyed the amusement. Three cotillion parties were eoon made up and took positions on the floor, and at the sound cf merry musio joined together in the dance, Governor Gray participating. At 11 o'clock refreshments ware served and tbe dancing was resumed and continued till an hour later. LEGISLATIVE KOTES. A bill to prevent base tali games was in trodnced Into the House yesterday morning. It provides for a fine of $20 for every violatioa. Among the visitors from Union City at the inauguration, guests o! Governor Gray, were W. K. Smith . and daughter Cora, J. D. Smith and daughter Ella, Miss Clara Jag.ua, raomaj Jlcalahaa, a, Q'Utua, B, E

Jaca-wn. Perry Gribben, Qui Coons, Hon. Charles N-g!ey, and-T. J- Gibbons; and E. J. Ewerer, of Columbus, O., nephew to Governor Gray, Yes, I was there," remirked Frank Bird; "in former years I ha7e only attended conventions, but thia year I'm attending inaugurations." Oor Ohio visitors received teats of honor at the Joint Convention yesterday, occupying the fir?t row of chairs of the dres3 circle in the Opera House. Mr. and Mrs, Hugh McCulloch Bond, nephew atd niece of Hen. Fxed J. Hayden, of Fort VTayrje, are ia tbe city, anl attended the inauguration and rKeption of Governor Cr7. Dr. McCIure. of JuTrsonville, was in the Legislature thirty years ago, and was then the youngfst member of that body. He now represent Clark and ficott Counties in tb9 Fetale, and is the oldest Reprcstntative in the Legislature. The box on th9 left hand was ocsnpiel by Mrs. Isaac P. Gray, the Govsrnor'a Private Secretary, Mr. Pierre Gray and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Allen Jaqua and daughter, Ida. and Misa McDonald, of Union City, Mrs. Is. II. Hawkins and 21 is 3 Minnie Jauua, of Portland. The announcement of the committees yesterday creatad eo ill feeling, and It appeara that the satisfaction was general. Speaker Jewett may congratulate himself upon having discharged a very onerous task in a mariner which will produce good results in tbe Legi&ialure. Messrs. VTeir, Moody, Cory and other3, having in charge the arrangements for the inauguration ceremonies, deserve credit for the nianrer in which they discharged their trust, riotwitlistc-nding the fact that tbe crowd xv as very large, there was no frictioa cr confavoa in Eeatinp; it. If the qantiem-n

bendio their corslitueats' interest in tae j !igii!aiui6 as irff cliy. ttey will no doaht . ce returned with increased majorities. Pumor has it that Governor Porter will fnjoy a brief season o T jt, after which he proposes to enter the ..urary field, and will vrite a hlstcry cf Indiana. This i3 a dangerous undertaking, and we fear will be considered as an evidenca that the Governor has abandoned politics. He should proüt by Mr. Iliaine'a experience, and keep aloof from literary pursuits until the acme of hi3 ambition has been attained in politics. In the House very little was done yesterday morning save tha announcement of the committees, whi;h will be found in our regular report. The roll of couut'es was then called for the introduction of bills, each rceaofr bfing allowed to introduce two tills. The öpeaker hu aiopie 1 a rale requiring bills to bered on their introduc tion, ab.d not ticiply by UUe, as neretitorc.

In the Senate yesterday morning Senator Majee introduced a resolution complimenting the so'dicrs of Indiana on the election of Governor Gray, Secretary Myers, Auditor Rice and Judge Mitchell, all of whom were soldiers in the late war. Another resolution was adopted, complimenting the personal military worth of General Manson. A unanimous vote of thanks was extended to Lieutenant Governor Hanna for his impartial and able presidency of the Senate. Y?t P. Knight, editor of the Pike County Democrat, hns been appointed Reading Clerk in the Senate, If Mr. Knight's experience has been like that of other men connected with coantry newspapers, he is no doubt by this time highly proficient in the art of leading diilicult manuscript. The country editor comes up through much trial and tribulation, but his experience is not easily forgotten or the lessons soon un'earned. We predict that Mr. Knight will have no difficulty in deciphering the Senatorial chirography. Representative Moiier, of Elkhart County, will introduce a fee and ealary bill, cf which the following are the principal provisions: Treasurer of State, from $1,000 to f 1,500; Governor's Private Secretary, f 1,500 to $1,200; Deputy Auditor of State, $1 539 to Si, 200; two clerks of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, fJ00 to $750; State Librarian, 1,200 to 51.000: Assistant Libra rian, $750 to SC00. Instead of $1,200 the salary of Auditors in countiss of 10,000 population shall be $1,000 a year, Sö per 100 for and additional 30,000. and $3 per 100 for all in excess of 40,000. The County Treas urers, the bill provides, shall receive 1 per cent, on the lust SoO.OOO of taxes collected, and one-half of 1 per cent, on all over that nmount. it is provided that all olhcsrs elect shall receive the fees and salaries now prescribed by law. The Rinks. To-morrow evening the three-mile race takes place at the Meridian Kink, in which quite a number of young men who are threatened with speed will participate. Toe race will furnish a world of merriment, and tee sating capacity of the Rink should bs tested, incay and Saturday evening, two games of polo between the Stars, of Dayton, and tha Meridian Club, will be the attrac tion. To night, at the Wigwam Rink, a very unique entertainmeat on wheels' will take place, name'y a "nektie and apron party," there beinz prizes offered by the management for the largest sizes cf the ibeve named "articles of adornment" worn on the occasion. Some of our city dudes might obtain a "pointer in neckties by at tending this affair to-night, and the ladies may be able to see what possibilities there are m dainty apron materials. Last night the College Avenue Rink was failed with a large and enthusiastic crowd to witness the one mile race between George Cattereon und Ed Perkins. Mr. Catterson won in five minutes and five seconds. Mr. Perkins time, five minutes and eight seconds. The rink management presented a gold badge to the winner. Large crowds constantly attend this place of amusement. Now Brooms Sweep Clean. The new Board of Health is preparing a vigorous line of policy, whica may appear a little rough to some physicians, but it will (trait g?2d aui it la t? t?3 ho?si tha; tha

course adopted will be rigidly followed. A circular letter is bing prepared which is to be aent to every physician, midwife or other person who contributes to the crowning sa cess of the death bed. This letter requires euch perrons making out two death returns to tbe board, to make their return withia eighteen houis after the death has occurred, or prepare to go before the Mayor and pay a fine. It is urged that, besides the law which requires this, cemeteries will not receiva bodies without a burial permit, which the office cm not is?ue until the re'urn is made, and that undertakers have complained of physicians whom they have had to hunt np before they could proceed with funeral?. This is an annoyance of a tar reaching character, which can be removed by obysicians complying with tho law, and the board propese 8 to see that tbey do it in the fuiurov
