Pay Your Debts. Surprising circumetancu it is, Now at the present day, So many should a debt contract And then forget to pay. Now I'm obliged to sweat and toil. And wer6 my strength awey, For those who when they get their work, And the forget to pay. What vain excuses men will plead A payment to delay, And many think that promises Will answer well for pay. Another eays. hard times, hard times, Don't hurry me, 1 pray, Not thinking that more hard the times, The more I want the pay. There others are, who should you dun, And dun till you are grey, Would Dever pay a cent, unless Compell'd by law to pay. He'll do a well without as I, Says one, and wait he may; The affluent cannot see my need. The poor think hard to pay. Some rather choose to put it off Until some future day, Then they forgot they owe a cent, And so will never pay. Therefore from men "of different sorts, And men of different way, The richj the poorthe purchaser, 'Tis hard to get my pay! For once let reason be your guide, Attend without delay, How can a poor mechiivc lire, Unless he gets his pay. Come thou and pass this new resolve , And to yourselves then say, Although I negligent have been, I now myeelf will pay.

MESSAGE op - - . GOVERNOR NOBLE.'

Senators. Representatitesi . and rellom Litizcns: You have assembled in the Repre senttire Hall, to witness my pledge of fidelity t the Constitution, accom. panied with a solemn asservation, laithiblly and impartially to discharge the duties appertaining to the office of Chief Magistrate of State, In taking upon myself the labors, and assuming the responsibilities of ft sta tion, the most distinguished within the gilt ot my fellow citizens of Indiana I at ail myself of the presence of their Senators, Representatives, and other public functionaries, to express the greatfol feelings, and acknowledge the ugh senses of obligation, this dishguished mark of confidence has awakened in my bosom; and while I tender to you, and through you to the people ofthe State, my respectful thanks, for the honor conferred by their sunrage, permit me, in this public mancer, to renevr the pledge, that my time ana humble tallents shall be faithfully eraployed in the promotion of their pros perity and happiness, -r . 1 he instrument I nave just promis ed to respect as the land mark of my official course, has clearly defined the powers and duties of the co-ordinate branches, and established .the boundaries of theexecuiive, legislative and judicial departments ofthe government and although these, with the ucceM which has attended the buildipg up ot our moral, civil and political institutions, and the rapid' march we have made towards a high destiny, ave sufficiently marked the way and lighted the path, that I should tread ; yet, at the commencement of a new executive term, the usuages of the country require, and you may expect at my hands, an outline ofthe policy prescribed for niy government. - Among the prominent measures and the important duties that will annually claim a share ol our deliberation, is that enjoined by the Constitution to provide a general system of education. In a short time the reins of government will pass t other hands, and the places we occupy, must be filled by the youths of the lands. "Knowledge is" power;" and all power riehtfullv deri ved, comes from the hands of the peo ple. That our free institutions may be perpetuated, it is not enough that we provide a few who are qualified to sit in the councils, or guide the helm of state we must commence at the fountain of power, with the great mass of the people, to cultivate and enlighten the public mmd, by a diffusion ofthe benefits of e V ct cn. Hi herto,in Ttf diana, wealth tias given no claim to of fice; and when the farmers and mechan ics reflect that their sons, with the assistance of education, can travel in the path to distinction, and enter intb Competition, bn eqvial grounds for the posts' of honor, they , will come forward and end their aid to sustain us in am idaa calculated to ensure to their oflspriag such benefits. Admonished then, at we are, of the necessity of the meas ure, from our own knowledge of the wants ot tnat portion of society in which we each live, motives of interest,philan thropy and patriotism, invite us to im-, mediate action; and on my part, I am A 1 -11' A A rt . .. . not oniy wining to act, emciently, but to meet responsibility in such a cause: 1 he sphere of action of the Stats authorities being circumscribed by .: - i.i ! !:: ; .' .. . lueir icrraonai umiu, u is not Wltllin the reach of State legislation to de vite or tarry intb effect any general plan lor the protection of the agricultural, manufacturing and commercial interests ef the nation, to develop our ra tional resources, or to render us independent of foreign Industry and ingenuity, as well as of foreign legislation. These powers have been wisely commi ted to the supervising care of the national legislature, and is to that ource we must look for the improvement of eur natural, and the opening of new and artificial channels of Commercial intercommunication between the several states, the creation of home markets for the varied products ofthe country, by the protection of domestic industry and enterprise, and for the establishment and maintenance of a sound, uniform and equal currency tbrugh out the Union.
