GovERsouR woLcor1's MESSAGE.

An obliging correspondent has furnished
US with copy OF Gov. Wolcoit's Message,
delivered to the legislature of Connectic
al the opening of its Session on Wednesday
OF last week, l. fills pamphlet of twenty
six closely printed octave pages. Many
subjects, both of local and general oharac
Ter, are introduced in the course OF it, and
several of them are discussed with more than
ordinary ability. Among them is the report
Of the State OF Ohio, relating 10 the right OF
that State to tar the Branch Bank OF the L.
States established there. Gov. Wolcott ex-
presses his sentiments on this subject much
a, length, and advances principles and doc
irines opposite 10 those entertained by the
legislature OF Ohio as contained in the docu-
lnents transmitted to bin. Towards the
close OF bis reasoning on the subject, he re-
marks" II is not for me TO assert, as the
State OF Ohio has done, that the report and
resolutions which they have transmitted, as
fair differences from the doctrines which
were promulgated from the legislatures OF
Kentucky and Virginia in The years 1898 &
1900; but may assert, for so impartial his-
tory will declare, that those doctrines have,
at no time, formed practical rules for the
government Of any subsequent admin sra.
lion or department, and tina, the principles
then announced, if they were ever adopted,
have been over ruled by subsequent deci-
sions, in which the great body Of the Ameri-
can people have acquiesced; that the con-
troversies, which they attempt to renew.
belong to generation which has passed
from the stage of active life: that the suTvi-
wing actors so far as my knowledge extends,
are generally reconciled TO each other, and
concur in recommending one system Of mea-
sures to tie people, and therefore that the
public good requires, that distinctions
should cease. which can produce no other
ELECTS, than to perpetuate contention"
The following remarks on the character
Of the common law, will meet with the sp-
probation Of every man who is sufficiently
we'll informed to be able to Judge OF their
truth asd justness--

be little doub, but the unfortunate persons
on board mus! have persisted.
Thirty eight seamen, charged with. piracy,
were on Tuesday last lodged in prison by
the Marshal Of the district 10 await their
trial. They were brought 10 this port from
Martinique in the Preach corvette Egerie,
commanded by Captain Dumanoir. They
were captured on board the "Valtente

was condemned at Martinique as lawful
prize; and the crew, alleging themselves to
be Americans were sent here for trial. The
