Indiana Legislature.

GovBnnon'o eiessage, Communicated to Loth Houses of the General Aaaembly on Tuesday the 2d instant. Gentlemen of the Senate, and House of Rrpreicntatiret: Since the last annual meeting of the Representatives of the people, our state hns continued its rapid advance in wealth and improremcnt; the current of emigration has never been exceeded; tho resource! of the slate are rapidly developing

and increasing; the condition of every cIam of our industrious citizens is improving, and the numerous evidences that we ee every where around us, of a happy

rnd prosperous people, call upon us for grateful acknowledgements to the Divine Dispenser of the numerous blessings enjoyed by our country. Our Revenue continues to increase in proportion to tho ordinary demands opon tho Treasury; and although the system in its operation, is not as perfect or equitable as could Le desired, or as economical in its assessment and collection as il ought to be, yet it is adequate to our preseut scale of expenditure. The receipts during the past year from all source, amount to $103,797,03 and the dis

bursements to 121,372,23 which, with the balance on hand of $10,820,29, at the close of the last fiscal year, leaves unexpended in the Treasury, the sum of 2,324,14, The greater expenditure, during the present year, is principally owing to the payments on account of the State House. Tho annual reports from the Auditor and Treasurer of State, will ex hibit in detail, the particulars of the reeipts and disbursements of the past year I again invite the attention of the Legislature to the suggestions made in my last Annua communication, as to the amendments necessary to our present Revenue laws to insure greater accuracy and uniformity, as well as economy, in assessing and rating lands for taxation. Of tho various subjects which will ne

cessarily presents themselves for your consideration this session, there is none more important than the prosecution of tho Wabash and Eric canal. Not only are we deeply interested in a pecuniary point of view, but our character as a state is concerned and our public faith is pledged for its vigorous prosecution and a peedy completion. During the past season, 30 1-2 miles in addition to former lettings, haro been put under contracts nnd arc now in progress. The prices at which these contracts were taken, are considered fair, although tho average price per mile is higher than tho contracts of last year, principally in consequence of a greater amount in lockage and additional feeders on that part of the line. In pursuance of the provisions of an act cf the lust session, the canal commissioners have caused surveys to be made on each side of the Wabash river, from LoganFport to the mouth of the Tippecanoe, with the view of determining as to the comparative eligibility of the two routes; but in consequence of the constant employment of tho engineer in field exercises and of some delay occasioned by ill health, the estimates have not us yet been com

pleted, but will be laid before you in due

rewarda of industry and enhance it gmnerat value of property. Bince the bene ftcial policy of engaging in public worke for the advancement of the agricultural and commercial interest of the country,

has been so frequently and clearly demonstrated; and while our credit is justly such as to command any amount of capital at an interest of five per cent, or les., no good reason can be assigned w hy we

should longer hesitate to follow the successful examples of other states. New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio had, nt the

commencement of their works, which have enriched their citizens and done honor to tho sagacity nnd enterprise of their projectors, but little more means or resources than their public credit, which enabled them to obtain in the money market, such sums as they needed. The money thus procured, in the first instance,

immediately benefitted the people by being

Delay may materially effect the value of the canal lands, and a speedy determination will put an end to the suspense of those w ho are desirous of locating themselves near the line of the canal. The Hoard have also caused a survey to be made of the valley of White Water, from the mouth of Nettle creek to Lawrenceburgh, but for the reason before stated, no detailed report or estimate has been made. It is believed , howeer, by the engineer, that the work is entirely practicable, the supply of water ample, that throughout the greater part of the line good materials are abundant, and that its feasibility is beyond a question. A few miles of the lino surveyed, lies w ithin the state of Ohio, whose assent was obtained before the survey was commenced. The duties of the Fngiiieer and his assistants

It is annually distributed in small portions to the several counties in the state, and by them again subdivided and applied to detached portions of the numerous State roads that incumber our Statute Books, without reference to any continuous line cf communication between different parts of the State; and is thus fl ittered away in pa ing for mere temporary improvements, without regard to the permanent convenience or accomodation of the public. And it would seem too often to be the case, that the great object of the fund is lost sight of in efforts to distribute the money in certain neighborhoods or to accomodate individuals by placing small portions in their hands for uishursemeut. It is true, that the people have been benefitted by the expenditure of this money among them; but (his should only be considered a seconda ry object. The money could as well be thrown into circulation and the same advantages accrue by applying it to the construction and improvement of a Winked number uf principal thoroughfares,

An additional reason why every exertion should be made on the part of this State to bring this question to a speedy settlement is, that as t tie mouth of the Maumee river and the termination of the Wabash and Lrie Canal, lie within the limits claimed by Michigan, it is most probable that Ohio will suspend all co-operation in the ww.k, until the controversy is settled; and from the proceedings of a meeting of some of the public officers and citizens, it would seem that such i their intention. 1 herewith lay before you the report of 'he Adjutant General of the state of Missachusetts to the legislature on the subject of the militia, and also Joint Resolutions of lhe States of Maryland and North Cirolina, recommending the adoption, bv Congress of an uniform system that will coualize the duties and relieve the nooole
