Tine GencrM lAsxrmLlu

Met yesterday, and a quorum was present in
both Houses.
la The Senate, DIR. Ed. p. Scott, the Senator
from tho Dinwiddc District, was elected Speaker:
and Mr.. llansford elected Clerk pro. tenn. The
old officers were reelected.
The House Of Delegates organized by the cleo.
ton Of all the old officers.
The Governors Message was then read. II is
quite a voluminous document, and confined alto.
gether to Statc affairs. As we only know it,
contents from hearing it read at the clerks table.
the reader, who has the paper before him, will be
better able to Judge of its recommendations than
we are.
1t appears that the tax law Of the last session.
did not realize more than half the sum anticipatcd
from it; and the Governor urges, that great good
having resulted from it, il is tho duty of the Legis
lature 10 re.enact the same BILL with amendments.
which will Increase the taxes. The general tone
OF this portion Of the Message or at least that por
Ton OF II which advocates the preservation OF the
Pghted iaiih OF the State, at all hazards, and at
any expense, will, Of course, meet the universal
appreciation Of the Wing party-Repudators
though they be.
The Governor is an enthusiast on the subject of
TO express opinion on the various suggestions he
has thrown out. We apprehend, the state of the
public treasury, and the endorsements orthe poo.
pie, forbid the adoption ofall his cndations-
even lthcy be the suggestions of wisdom and sound
policy.
His ENccilencys views on the subject of Edu.
cation, are warmly and cogcnty expressed. and
they merit all the favour which the Legislature can
bestow upon them. We fear however, they are
destined to be treated in the same way in which
similar views have heretofore been treated-that
is, he honoured with Report from a Committee,
and then be heard Of no more.
The Virginia public will be pleased to hear that
the Governor still has hopes, that New York will
furnish us a decent preteNl for repeating the In.
spectlon Law. We, last session. surrendered ono
of the main obstacles to the Rcpeal-and which
was the principal inducemcnt to the act-the dc.
mand for, and the refusal 10y y. York. to give up
the rogucs;-in the expectation that y. York DE-.
mocracy would do us Justice. Richie. and tho
rest Of his set, swore that Justice would he done US.
but, after abandoning position, and trucking Ia
/ New lork, we were treated with contempt. But
the Governor still has bopcs--and upon his hopes
we must rest, until The Now York Democracy re-.
deem their pledges and the pledges which Richie
has made for them, to the people of Virginia.
/ Tho Message, in style is ornate and dfusc, and in
length, partakes Of the Characteristic blemish Of
/ American state papers.

PROSPECTUS



The approaching session OF Congress "n''
doubtless, be the most important one IN many
respects, in the annals Of American politics.
The occurrences will be intensely Interesting TO
every citizen and we shall make extensive ar
,anqements 10 spread before our readers the earll-
est. most elaborate, and most correct accounts OF
every thing that transpires at the capital. The
proceedings Of Congress will be minutely at
tended to, and speeches delivered in both
Houses given at length.
The approaching Congress will differ in ma
nv respects from any other ever convened.
The Executive will be firm aud just, and
vet courteous and conciliatory TO all the parties
that compose the Congress, SO that IN the pol't-
cal conflicts, which may be anticipated, The
PEOPLES interests may not be altogether
neglected. One party will have The ascendency
IN the Senate-the other in the House, while
,be President will strive, IN BEHALF OF THE
COUNTRY, to harmonic their legislative action.
Congress will find that, under The present
Executive, the revenues being in responsible
hands, no deialcatons have occurred, and that
the agents, entrusted with the public funds,
have merited the confidence of both parties. II
will find tariff somewhat imperfect, and diff
ierng from the one recommended by Mr.. Tyler,
passed in the House BY the casting votes OF
twenty-one emocra,s-ihirty.fre Clay wings
voting against il; while in the Senate four or five
Democrats voted for it, and twice that number
of Wings against il. Ii will find that the cur
of fha in a dor
than it has been for twenty years. and that too
lpiihom Bank, or anything of kindred ma
ture; while the five millions Of Treasury notes
authorized to be issued bearing. six per cent,
are taken by the Government creditors riih-
ont any interest at all. II will find dema-
gogues and political managers busy cheating
the People as usual, preaching Distribution, as
sumption Of State debts, Bank, &c. But they
can never make much progress while MIR. Tyler
is President All these exciting subjects will
be agitaled for the benefit OF Presidential aspi-
rants.
AT such time. il is necessary that the citi-
gems in every section Of the Union should know
what is done by their representatives, and be ac-
quainted with the import and design Of the de-
bates and movements in Congress. The SEES
sion will no doubt be long, as well as intensely
exciting. and hence the Involvement to sub
