General Land Oilice; because, until that is done, the lands, by the terms of the grant, are not vested in the State. This munificent donation in cortneclion with the disposition w'iich it is understood i" manifested by our bond holders, may have an important bearing upon the

credit of the State. And it is hoped that it has been rendered apparent, that n pains have been spared on

$2,300,000 of taxables over the returns of 1311. The whole amount of State revenue paid in, during the last fiscal year ra3 $271,903 09. The assessment of State revenue for "lS13 is $319,421 81 ; that for county, road, school and township purposes is $131, 100 40. To which adding the delinquencies of former years, amounting to $113,572 l;i. and the total amount of assessments for the year 1315, i3 $309,C97 02. The result of my own observation and reflection has been to satisfy me that there i3 great room for reform in our present system of county expenditures. In the last fiscal year the aggregate taxes levied for county purposes almost equalled, and in 1311 they actually exceeded, the whole amount of our State revenue in those years respectively. The fiult, no doubt, is mainly imputable to the system itself, rather than to its administration. A leading item of expense, is the pay of jurors in our courts of justice. Under the option given to parties, issues of fact arc frequently tried by the courts, and the sjwctacle is often exhibited, of the jury being in attendance, unemployed and at an unnecessary expense to the coun-

lt is respectfully sugcsled whether tlas evil

The opiaion has hitherto been nearly, if not quite universal, among our citizens, as well as others acquainted with our condition and resources, that it is beyond the power of the State, at present to fu'ly meet its obligations. Even the plan submitted at the last session, in the Senate virtually, made this concession, by proposing to convert our bonds mostly bearing five rer cent. int. into a stock payingenly three per cent. Mo plan that has been mooted for a resumption of payment, even the most stringent, has contemplated a full and immediate payment. The most rigid proposition has looked to along indulgence on paying but a small part of the current interest and funding the residue, together with that which is in arrears." The completion of this canal, however advantageous it may be to the interests of those within its vicinity, it is manifest, claims your favorable regard, as the Representatives of the State at large, chiefly as a revenue measure. And in that light it is believed to possess claims if a high character. -The work, when finished, passes through a country of alino-t unrivalled fertility, and rapidly increasing population. Reaching in its foil length, from Lake Erie to the Ohio river, it will be the longest work of the kind in the United

States. It will be ?ccond in importance only to that which

ty

could not in a great degree be remedied, ly establish- j connects Lake Erie and Hudson river, and will mahc ing an issue term or by requiring that during the first i one of the links in the great chain of internal navidays of the regular term, causes shall be brought to gation from the North Eastern to the South Western

extremities of our growing confederacy. It was stated in a quarter entitled to repcct and confidence, nt a meeting held at Terre Haute in May la-vt, that if the State-were to pay to her bond-holders by a State tax and otherwise, a portion of her public

debt, it was thought that they wou'd be prepared toj take the profits of t!u canal for ihe balance. The gentleman who expressed this opinion, is now in attendance as the representative of our foreign bond- J holders and has verbally advicd me that ho will j shortly prepare a communication ofiering a liberal j arrangement, to be laid before the General Assembly, i In my last annual message, the opinion was ex- j pressed, that the great mass of our follow citizens ! were willing and anxious to meet all our just clli-' gations; that with them it was a qvicsticn not of in-' clination but of ability, and that I had great conti-j dencc if a plan for extinguishing the debt should be i i i .:. l. : . ,....1.1

issue, ready for trial, and that, then, and before the jury and witnesses arc summoned, the parties in each case shall elect whether the trial shall be by the court or jury. By placing the jury causes together on the docket for particular days of the term, the jury and witnesses when convened, would be as constantly occupied until discharged as the nature of the business would permit. This, it is believed, would save to such persons a heavy tax upon their time, lighten the county burdens, and promote the cause of ju-tice. Since the last adjournment of the Legislature, a grant of one half of all the public lands in the Vincenncs District has been made by the Uuited States to Indiana, to aid in the extension and completion of the Wabaali and Erie Canal, from Terre Haute to Evansville. The grant has a two-fold aspect. By the first section of the act, there is conveved to the State one mo

iety of the public lands, lying in a strip five miles matured and agreed m en enc which in terms would

f the

not

in wiuin, on eacn siue oi me canai irum uue wm io leasible, and clearly brought within the ability ot the other but restricted in the mode of selection by ytate to meet, that an appeal to the moral sense oi the principle of alternation that is, by reserving to ! citizens for their approval at the ballot box would

the United States every alternate section, or other

proper subdivision. By the second section of the act, there is also granted to the State, one-half of all the remaining public lands lying without the limits of the strip, and within the same land district; but as the principle of alternation is not imposed as to this part of the grant, the Stale is left at liberty to set oS her moiety in such places within the limits of the grant, as may best promote her interest. As these selections were authorized by the act of Congress, to be made under the direction of the Governor of the State, it early became an object of the greatest solicitude that such measures should be adopted as would secure as far as practicable, the most valuable portion of these lands for the important object for which the grant was made, supposing the State's half of the lands to amount to eight hundred thousand acres, which is very near the truth, then, a difference in the value of only twelve and a half cents per acre, occasioned by an injudicious selection, would amount in the aggregate to a loss of one hundred thousand dollars to the State. But the difference would, in all probability, be still greater, and operate far more injuriously to the interests of the State, without the observance of the same caution, by which a prudent individual would be governed in the purchase of lands. It was regarded as important, therefore, that every tract of public land subject to selection should be actually visited and examined by a person of competent skill and experience before a final selection should b2 made. By the terms of the act, further sales of public lands in the district were directed to be suspended until the selections should be perfected, and a return of the same made to the Secretary of the Treasury, and to the District Land office. But as it was also provided that this suspension should not continue beyond the period of twelve months from the passage of the act, which expires on the 3d of March next, and as there were nearly 1,000,000 acres of lands to be examined, (from which the State's moiety was to be selected,) extending through the twenty-three counties and parts of counties, embraced within the district, it became necessary to appoint a number of examiners sufficient to complete the work, not only by the time specified, but in a manner the most conducive to the interest of the State. A separate map, as well as a separate list of all the unsold lands, in each of these counties, was prosured from the General Land Office, to be placed in the hands of the several examiners to facilitate their labors, and to guide them in their operations. Soon after these were received, the examiners were convened at a central point, in order that by the specific instructions which were there given them, the necessary accuracy and uniformity on their part should be ensured. Had they been required to select for the State, each in his own county, the better half of the lands therein contained, these separate moieties might not, and indeed it is certain they would not constitute the better half of the aggregate of the public lands in the district at large. They were directed, therefore, to divide the lands in their respective counties into five classes, according to their value, as compared with a common standard. F. E. Goodsell, Esq., of Evansville, was appointed as a general agent to visit the different examiners while thus engaged, and by comparing their estimates, to secure the necessary uniformity in classifying the different rates. Bv this

means it was believed, that when the final reports of

the examiners should be received, it would not be difficult to select the best classes of lands for the Stat.?,

By the terms of the grant, the State i3 prohibited from Sellins her portion of the lands, for les than

the minimum price, for the time being, of other pub

lic lands.

But no restriction exists against the disposal of

them, in any quantities however small. Believing that it would be found advisable to sell, as low as in fiuarterxiuarter sections, which would benefit the

State by inviting a wider competition, and increasing the number of freeholders, the lists procured from the General Land Office, were transcribed and subdivided into tracts of that size, before they were put into the

hands of the examiners

Thus each forty acre tract will be found separately rated and ready to receive a corresponding valuation

in the discretion of the Legislature, which will ob

viate the danger existing in the case of uniform prices,

of the best tracts of that size being first purchased and a residue of unsaleable lands left on hand.

The State has heretofore found it necessary to make a graduated valuation of all lands granted to her for

similar objects; and if the means had not been thus afforded to "the Legislature, of at once affixing a suit

able price to each class of lands in the present grant

the necessity would exist of having another valuation

bv another oersonal examination with the same

--

be made in vain. While nothing has since taken

place to change, much has occurred to strengthen this opinion. More than two-thirds of the State tax now paid ly the people of Indiana, is devoted to the payment of the public debt. This tax has been steadily borne through years of discouragement and in the midst of unjust reproaches. When the domestic debt, existing in the form of treasury notes, and ucd as a currency, is absorbed in this mariner or is disposed bf by a different or satisfactory arrangement, all of our State revenue, beyond the current expenses, can be applied to the payment of our foreign debt. By a similar application of the amount saved by the needed reform in our county expenditures and by strict economy in every branch of the public service, the amount of the annual interest due on our foreign debt would be still further reduced; Should the proposition be made again on the part of our bondholders to take the profits of the canal for such a portion of our public debt as will enable the State with the aid of the means above referred to, to pay the balance, I doubt not that the people will cheerfully aubmit to the necessary burthen, which, while it saves the honor, and resuscitates the credit of the State, will, by increased immigration, the enhanced value of property, the restoration of confidence, and the improvement of the credit of our citizens individually, more than compensate them for their outlay. That such an arrangement will be made as will be satisfactory to our creditors, and will restore the tarnished escutcheon of Indiana tu its original brightness, I will not permit myself to doubt. A searching and thorough reform in every branch of our county expenditures, of which I have given a solitary instance, the growing determination among our tax payers to wipe off our reproach, with a liberal spirit and disposition manifested by our creditors to facilitate their doing so, will 6ecure the consummation of that much de

sired result. The early completion of the canal from Lafayette to Terre Haute, would, by the increased revenue to .a ,"1 I,'.-,

be thence derived, exercise a most uvoraoic iniiu-

ence upon this question. There are yet some thirtysix thousand acres of land granted for that work, which have not yet been selected. I hive hitherto abstained from causing the selection to be made, in the

lope that permission may be obtained from Congress

to make it, in the Miami Reservation. Such a mea

sure would have a must important bearing upon the completion of the work. It is hoped that a thorough examination into the causes which have delayed its

progress will be made, with the view, if possible, of applying the necessary corrective.

As in the expected communication irom trie ngeni

of our creditors, some propositions may be sub

mitted in relation to the disposition ot the lands, and the construction of the canal, with the precise nature of which, I am not sufficiently acquainted, any expression of opinion upon those subjects is,

tor the present, deterred. 1 recommend, iiowevcr, that provision be made to secure to existing settlers upon the lands granted to the State, a suitable indemnity for their labor, by which the lands have been cn-

hanced in value, mis is requireu Dy jusuce, anu is in accordance with the former policy of the State un

der like circumstance.

I cannot consistent! with a sense of duty, emit

respectfully calling your attention once more, to the propriety of giving to justices of the peace exclusive

jurisdiction in many petty misdemeanors, which arc

now punishable by indictment in the circuit courts, for rtasons set forth in my last annual message. Concurrent jurisdiction might also be given to them in

some minor otienccs or a niguer graue, as is now me case in assaults and batteries, affrays and other breaches of the peace, and with the same restrictions of securing to the accused, the right of trial by jury, where the same is guarantied by the constitution, and cf providing for his b?ing recognized for trial in the circu;t court, either at his own election, or, where the justice shall be of opinion that the highest punishment which he may be authorized to inflict

will not be adenuate to the offence. The time of the

circuit courts is already so much occupied with tri

vial prosecutions, as to frequently caue a vexatious

delay of justice to parties in the most important civil

suits, and the evil must continue to increasj with the rrrowthof our population. The punishment by fine.

although light, is so much augmented by the costs of

court, and other expenses, say.ng nothing cf los of time, that it is believed there is scarcely a State in the Union where the same grade of olfonccsis visited

with so much severity.

Tha nt and growing amount of our special lrjiilation,

ia a subject well calculated to arrest attention. Aiucn tne greater part of the lime of the Legislature i occupied in passing local ami prisale acts, far most of which, it is well worthy of consideration, whether ample proisioa cannot

be made tj a lew general laws. An uiustrauon is auorue

in the laws for the incorporation of towns and churches. It U true that the former has not prevented applications for town charters, lot these, it is belie ted, are in most cases unnecessary, and in all they might be rendered id, by so emending the general law, as to confer the necessary powers. The same local authorities upon whom the law confers the right of establishing ferries, might under suitable restrictions, be authorized to licet se toll gates anJ toll briJges. This would save- much delay io making the necessary application for the privilege sought, and would hasten the completion of works of much needed improvement. At nearly, if not quite every session, special laws are pisseJ for the election of justices of the peace, in aJJition

to thoso authorized by the general law. In one session as many seventeen, and in the following session, eighteen such bills were passed. It is respectful'y suggested, whether by clothiog the Hoards of Commissioner with the necessary power, the object could ret be as well attained the wants of the Community sooner met, and no small amocnt of Ibe expense and labor of legislation saved. 1 Dills have been passed vacating towns and puts of towns, and to change their names, and examples have not been wanting of successful application to vacate town , alleys. Admitting the power of the legislature U ffoct each of this olject'3, it follows, that it can, by a general law be transferred, and, it is believed, more appropriately transferred, to the county commissioners. I A more fruitful source of legislation is that of griming corporate powers to seminaries, literary societies, military , companies, bands of musicians, to mill and manuficturing companies, and to other objects of a purely local and pu-! vate character. Within the last eight jear, iherä have ' been passed in this State, above four hundred private acts

oi incorporation, mostly tor similar objects, making an average of more than fifty voluminous acts for each session. Without discussing the utility of these corporate privileges in every case, the opinion is confidently expressed, that all who need them, might be enabled to attain their object by a geoeral law. By this means a vast accumulation of private and special acts would be dispensed wilh, which only serve to lengthen ihfl session, to increase the labors of the members, and what is not of less importance, to withdraw the mind from that full and matured consideration cf important questions f a general and pervaJirg character which is demanded by the public welfare. It wocld be proper in any genera! law of this character, to limit the amount of property to be held, to proviJe for the principle of Individual liability Where the same would be applicable, and to insert tbe other usual restrictions in our legislation upon these cut jects, with a reservation to the General Assembly oftherightofmod.fi-eatii'-n or rppeaf. The policy of confinement in county j ills, as a punishment for crime, may, in most cases, well be questioned. It is not only a serious burden on the counties, but it is be Iieved to be incompatible wilh reformation, which is the leading purpose of criminal punUhmcnt. The attainment cf this object may be hoped for by lh8 penitentiary system, when made to combine imprisonment, harJ labor, and a suitable moral discipline. Ltut this system, under our present laws only ope rates upon the higher class of offender, and has no beaiing upon prisoners in the county jiils. Vet tbere is far more hope of reclaiming the latter by this system than the former, who, generally spfaking, are more practised in crime. As a remedy for ibis evil, tho applica

tion of the priticiplo of penitentiary discipline upon those i

goilty of minor otiences, as well as upon juvenile and

lemaie onenuers, ty means ot Houses ot Correction, is

respectfully recommended. They should bo cstablUheJ , with an eye to the comfort and separate employment of

the inmates, and to the exercise of a kindly, but Iura and steady discipline. Dy this means vicious associations woul4 be prevented, and habits of industry formed. For all, who are the children of misfortune, rather than of crime, (and of such, are most of those w ho have only committed their first offence,) such retreats would be, not only in name, but in fact, houses of refuse. A principal obstacle to the permanent rf formation of the penitentiary convict, is, that having lost his self respect, and despairing of ever regaining the good opinion of the community, be feels at his release, that his character is gone and that he has nothing worth living for but the mere support of his animal existence. To obviate this difficulty as far as possible, I established a rule, that on a written report from the clerk of the prison, '.hit a convict had faithfully complied wilh the rulei of the pri on, and by his exemplary conduct, had given evidence of reformation, he

should be restored to the rights of citizenship -to the same platform whence he bad descended, by a pardon, bearing on its f ice, the cause of its being granted. Four convicts

have already availed themselves of this privilege, since last Febiuary, when the ru'c was first estab!ihcd, and I am j

intormed by the clerk, that more had entitled themselvts to, and would gladly have availed themselves of this favor but fur the fact, that they would thereby lose the small sum of money, which, under an existing law, is paid lo every convict at the end of the time fur which he is sentenced, as a necessary means of upport, until he can get into reputable employment. I recommend that tho same law be made to apply to all cares, where the prisoner is released by pardon, within a given time before the expiration of his sentence, and expressly on the ground of good conduct. The report of the visitor of the State Prison has been received, and will shortly be laid before you, w ilh such remarks as may be required by the subject. The fixing of the number of R presentatives and Senators, and tbe apportioning of tt.em among the several counties, according to the number of polls lately returr cd, will devolve upon the present General Assembly. In settling ibe details of this measure, it is respectfully recommended to jour consideration, whether the number of the members in each branch of the Legislature may not be reduced without disadvantage to the public selvice. Uesides the saving to the treasury, which wou'd be effected by such a reduction, the opinion seems to prevail, and not without foundation, that where deliberative bodies are as small as rill consist with a due knowledge and representation of the wants of the constiiucncy on the part of their delegation, the despatch of business is not only greater, but that mature and dispassionate legisl:.:on is butter secured. On this subject, however, the will of your constituents, of which you are tbe rightful exponents, and with which you are better acquainted, should be, and 1 doubt not will be, properly consulted. The annual report cf the Adjutant General, and Quarter-master General, are herewith submitted. The former contains some suggestions in relation to drawing our full quota of the public arms from the General Government, of which we have been deprived fince 183!. My views on this subject, wete submitted in my former message, to which reference is respectfully made. By the latter report it will be seen, that under the direction of the Q jarter-masier General, there have been collected of the public arms, which haJ been scattered in various parts of the S.te, eleven hundred and seventy-five pieces, of which six hundred and one pieces have undergone the necessary repairs. The recommendation of the last named officer, touching the transportation of arms, commends itself to your favorable consideration, on the score, both of economy and sound policy. The expense of collecting, repairing, and transporting arms, constitutes a large portion of the disbursements from the contingent fund, and ss this will be an annual expenditure, it is recommended that it, as well as the postage account, be separately appropriated under

their proper heads. 1

I he present may well be regarded as a crisis in the affairs of the Slate. Some of the various subjects which will engage your attention, are of vital importance to the welfare of Indiana. That there thould be an entire unanimity of opinion upon all these questions; and especial y as to their details, is not to be expected. But they need, and it is trusted that they will receive, your matured deliberations, in that spirit of deference, of cimciliatien, and of concession; which, iu auch cases is almost essential to success.

Messrs. Sanford Ii Ta, k. Springfield, Ky. May 14, 134. Gents I take this opportunity of infuj rninj yon of a moat remarkable cure pctiormcd upon tte by the use of 'Dr. Wistar'a Balaam ol Wild Cherry.' In the year 18 19 I was taken ith an inflammation bf tbe bowel hieb I labored under for six weeks wheal gradually reeovrree'. In tbe lall of 1831 I met attacked with a severe cold, which seated itself upon my lungs ; aid for the space of three yean 1 was wnfined to my bed. 1 tried all kil.ds ol rncitieiiH-s, and every variety of medical aid sri'hout beiM fit bin! thus 1 wiSrted along until the winter of 1644, when I heard of "Hietar't BaUcm of H'iid Chet ry. My friends persuaded me to give it a trial, though I bad given ap all hoies of recowrj and had prepared tu J elf for the ehang of another world. Through tbeir solicitations I was induced to make use of the Genuine H'ittar'e Ealtam of Wild Chrrrf. The eflVet was truly astonishing. After five yrtr rf affliction, pain and äffe rin;; and afler haiitip sjient four or fve hundted dollar le ne purpose, and the bestand moll resjieelable physician had proved unavailing, I was soon restored to fcuilre heal:h by the blessing f God and tlie Ue of Dr. Wi.tar's BaKamol Wild Cherry. I sin now enjoying good ht alth, and ruch it my altered appearance that I am no longer known when I meet my former acquaintances . 1 have gained rapidly in weight, and my flesh 1 firm and solid I can now eat as much as any person, a!id my food see tits to agree w ith me.
