BY THE GOVERNOR.

The season has again returned, in which,
by long established usage, the people
of this State have been accustomed to
assemble for the purpose of engaging
IN the exercises of public Fasting AND
PRAYER. The propriety of this Gus
tom has been recommended by its reg
ular observance from our earliest hiso-
ry, and is everywhere sanctioned by
the precepts of religion Man needs to
be reminded of his dependence upon
his Creator, lest he become forgetful of
the arm that sustains and the hand that
feeds him.
La conformity with this laudable prac-
tlce, DO hereby appoint Friday, the tenth
day of April next, 10 be observed by the
people of this State, as day of Fasting,
Humiliation and Prayer, and recommend
that they abstain from all labor and recre-
alton inconsistent with its due observance.
May the people on that day, assemble
at their several places Of public worship.
be led to faithful review of the past. and
10 serious meditations upon their respect
i've duties and responsibilities. Con-
scious of their offences, NAV they repent
of their transgressions, ard through the
influence of the pure principles of the
Gospel of Jesus Christ be animated and
inspired with resolutions of future amend
ment and obedience to Gods holy law
Let it also be day OF sincere humiliation
for the sins Of the land; and while we
grieve for the crimes and vices which re-
proach our country let US fervenllv pray
that all acts of public wrong, injustice
and oppression, may be speedily redress
eG that the spiri! of INSTRUMENTATION, dis
regard OF law and right, and the hitherto
uncontrolled ambition of men NAV be
restrained; and, that respect for the laws,
love of order. of civil and religious Iiber-
~, virtue and patriotism, may universally
prevail.
In view of our dependence upon the
goodness and mercy of GOD, and our
faith in his preserving and sustaining
care, 1t is peculiarly appropriate that we
invoke his blessing upon the concerns of
the passing year: That HE would or
der the seasons in kindness, and bless
with rich return the labors of the hus-
bandman: That all our citizens, in their
various lawful pursuits, may be prosper
ed: That the health of our people NAV
be preserved That HE would regard
i with favor our many associations and in
stitutions, designed for the dissemination
and promotion of truth and science, and
for the amelloration of the condition of
Man.
And may we earnestly implore the
Sovereign Ruler of the Universe 10 pro-
tect our beloved country in all its various
interests and relations, praying that our
Rulers, in the National and State Gov
ernments, may be guided by wisdom and
patriotism, and that the blessings of civil
and religious liberty, now enjoyed by us,
may be transmitted, in all their freshness,
as an invaluable inheritance, to future
generations.

business and sacrificed their time and their money
for the purpose of assisting the country from
ruin. And they were not only willing to spend cay
in the cause but weeks il need be. Such an entnu.
sasm as exhibited ITSELF calculated to INSPIRE all
true friends of liberties with hope and TO cheer US
on to victory. With ELLSWORTH at our head at
the contest in April, and the old HERO OF TlPPE-
der at the Presidential election the banner Of victory
shall wave once and again over our State, and the
voice of Connecticut shall unite with the glad shouts
of freemen throughout the length and breadth Of the
land, declaring that our rights are 1nalntalned-our
liberties secure.
RrA great many of the delegates remaining in the
city yesterday, portion OF them met at Union nan

and T. NJ. ALLYN, Esq. of Hartford, Secretary. Sew.
eral gentlemen made addresses, and the interest OF
the meeting was kept up till noon.
In the evening there was another meeting IN the
City Hall. Messrs. Reynolds of New York, Robin
son of New Haven, and other gentlemen spoke. The
right spirit prevails, and the Wings are impatiently
waiting for trial Of their strength.
The Young Mems Convention was.we think, under
high obligations to two gentlemen from our sister
States, Mr.. REYNOLDS Of New York, and Mr.. HUMEs,
OF Tennessee. In clear and most able manner, Mr..
Reynolds exposed the disastrous consequences OF the
destruction of the credit system, to the mechanic, the
MANUFACTURER and every class Of society.
Mr.. Humes, in brief, but eloquent address, cheer
prospect of the good in Tennessee and through
out the Union. That inscription, said Mr.. H. in con-
cuson, pointing to banner bearing the name Of Hair

has struck terror the heart of the modern Beshaz-
Ear, feasting amid his golden gobets.

FOR THE ENQUIRER.
"wHO ARE THE SALARY MEN 2"

"WHO AXE The SALARY MEN u
This is an inquiry sometimes made by leading loco
focos. In one sense, a large of the community
are " salary men," All journeymen mechanics-all
persons engaged in manufacturers sailors-all
hired men working on farms-ali presidents, cashiers,
and attornies Of banks and rail roads-a agents and
boatmen employed on canals. The wages Of service
of these various classes may perhaps be considered as
their salaries. In other words, they paid for
their labor. Each of these classes, however,
gagged in private business, and employed at the private
expense of individuals or companies. In the rate Of
wages salaries which their employers choose pay
them, the public can have little interest.
The public, however-the people themselves-also
employ and pay salaries certain classes of PERSONS
and as the inquiry seems to be raised in political
connections and willingly presume it was made in
good faith, shal proceed to so far relates
the public salaried officers of this countryside
whose labor the people buy.
There are four different classes of public officers.
