iuivaiiUkresTit is the indigent who have the i

etrong'.st claim upon your deliberations. A portion of the waste lands adjoining the institution, laid out and enclosed m fields and gardens, attached to it, and offered tree of rent, to the industrious youth, without resources, who desires to enter college, would enable many a poor young man, gratified with such an opportunity, to a quire for himself, the rich blessings of a good education, by the labor of his own hands. Neither would a correct knowledge ot agriculture or hoiticuHurc, do the sligutest injury to even those, who might not be forced by necessity,

to till the ground, to improve the head. It ought not to be supposed too readily, that whilst the mind is treasuring up the weighty masses of science and literature, which are

crowded upon it, that the healthful action and j

vig jr o the body, can be neglected, without doing an irreparable injury to the health of the Vudent. Let us aim to improve rather than Impair all of the parts that constitute the man, the head, the heart, and body. l'ne ter u ol the state's prison superinten dent, appointed by my predecessor, having expired during the past season, it became my du y to provide tor its management in future. Alter giving due notice, 1 closed a contract With James Keigwin. From the agreement, filled in the secretary's office and subject to your inspection, it wiii appear that Mr K.igwin has undertaken to be at the whole ol the expense of keeping the convicts and to pay to the state in addition, the sum of sixteen hundred and fifty dollars, eight hundred and fifty dollars of which are to be laid out in improvements about the penitentiary. These are terms higly lavorable to the state, and arc another prool in favor of the mode of punishment and of the judicious location of the ptison I would be very remiss in my duty to the public justice of the state, believing that certainty of punishment, for a violation of the penal laws, ndispensible, to prevent the commission of ciime, if I were not to sci2j upo i this opportunity, to assure you, in plain

tei wis, that the present amount oi contingent fund, is not sufficient, to liquidate the contingencies ot the year, and to enable the state executive, to demand and procure the apprehension and return of fugitives, from her jus tice It is with difficulty, that agents, can be procured, to spend their own time and mo fjey, upon the faith of a competent legislative allowance, several months in advance.

Claims, however, for this kind of service, willj

be presented, accompanied with evidence and the nature of the case, which you are expected to honor. Tin; assessments of the present year, except the counties of Henry and Perry, from which there are no returns, amount to thirtysix thousand and six hundred and thirty five

dollars ICO Cts. The number of polls rem

ed, exclusive of these counties, are, fortythree ihousand three hundred Zz twenty-five. F m the assessment fists, the treasury may fairly realize, by the 1st ot January 1829, thirty thousand dollars. From old delinquent lists, there ought to reach the treasury, during the ensuing year, five thousand dollars. There were remaining in the treasury, an un xpoi d- d balance, on the 1st of December, instant, of eleven thousand three hundred and forty nine dollars; making the sum of foriy six ihousand three hundred and forty nine dollars of available funds Thus, the resources of the state, are exhibited, for the financial year.
