MESSAGE OF THE GOVERNOR OF N. YoRK.
Gov. Wright's message was delivered on Tues
day, and although five columns shorter than
last year, occupies nine lengthy columns. He
reviews the anti-rent troubles at length, and
suggests that leases of farm lands be not ex-
tended beyond five or ten years. The entire
population of the State is ,604 ,495, an increase
of 1854 since 1910. There are 3,753 In
dams in the State. The entire amount of the
Canal debt, making allowances for S2,47s, COL,
due and paid on the lst of the year, is Sl7,2l6,-
1887. The revenue of the Canals have been
such as to be very satisfactory, and the tolls
during the last season have exceeded those of
any previous season, having amounted to ST.
SAG, ,453.7s. The productive capital of the
common school fund, at the close of the fiscal
year, was $4,000, ,6S2.4l. The whole number
of school districts in the State is ll,0lS, and
reports from 1882 of them show that the
whole number of children instructed in them
were 1856, ,0i5.
Gov. Wright approves the message Of the
President; regards the offer of the 49th degree
as the extreme Of liberality on our part, as a

compromise for the sake of peace; and though
not pronOuncing against the acceptance of that
line if the proposition should be renewed, from
Great Britain, makes it the ultmatum beyond
which no further concession can be madn.

MESSAGE OF THE GOVERNOR OF PEENSYL-
yANIA. The message of Governor Skunk was
delivered on Wednesday, and occupies less
than four columns of some of the Philadel phia
papers. We learn from it that there was a
balance of $685., 900 in the State treasury on
the lst inst, which with the accruing interest,
will it is thought, be sufficient to pay the Feb
rnary interest. The public debt of the State,
on the lst December, amounted to $40 9S6,
393, which includes 81 ,25S, ,572 of Relief notes
in circulation. The annual interest amounts
to 50 ,023, ,996. The demands on the treasury
during the year exceeded the receipts by S4l4,-
1893. The Governor urges measures to reme-
dy this, as the credit of the State must be pre-
served, and the interest on her debt be hereaf-
ter punctually paid. He is favorable to tariff,
with discriminating duties, which with Coon
stitutional treasury" will give stability to the
general interests of the country. During the
year Sc, ,23l tons of iron have passed over the
canals and railways of the State. He urges
that every Bank applying for renewal of its
charter be compelled to adopt the individual
liability feature, and recommends we'll orga-
nized militia

Where near at hand, from a streams briL ht bed,

Above the waters its snowy head

(The words ran high, and were bitter as gaI)
For Lilly said red was unseemly to wear,
Aud Rose said white was no color at all.

And chided them both in accents meek;
With sorrow and shame the flowers were mute,
And thenceforth blended Oh woman's check

IMPROVEMENT OF MONUMENT SQUARE.
| observe, Messrs. Editors, notice in your
paper of the enclosure of the western square,
adjoining the Washington Monument, in which
it is stated that the work has heen done by ci-
tizens in the neighborhood. This is not exact
ly correct. If there be any merit attached to
this question, that merit is certainly due TO the
exertions of Beale Ii. Richardson, the repre-
sentative of the llth and 18th wards, who at
the last session of the City Councils succeeded,
against much opposition and after the bill had
been twice rejected by the First Branch: in OBJ
tanning an appropriation of six hundred dollars
for the purpose Of enclosing the square. Sc
veral gentlemen in the immediate vicinity had
very literally and handsomely pledged them
selves to make up any deficiency in the appro-
priation, and to plant out the square with suit
able shade and ornamental trees, so soon as
properly enclosed; and this we are sure they
will proceed to do early in the spring.
We most ardently unite in the wish express
ed, that the other squares may be speedily en-
closed and planted, so that the people of our
city may have place where the cool refresh
ing shade may be enjoyed during the heat of
summer, and that we may no longer be pnt to
shame before the world as we look upon those
naked wastes around our magnificent column
which has given a name to our city of which
we are all justly proud. OBSERVER.
The writer of the above is perfectly correct
in respect to the appropriation of 5000 by the
City Council for the object mentioned, and the
agency which Mr.. Richardson had in procur.
ing the appropriation. Our reporter was un'
acquainted with the circumstance of 5000 hav-
ing been given by the city, and hence commit,
ted the error which the writer has corrected
We shall be glad to see the other portions oi
Monument Square also improved, and hope
that the City Council will take the subject into
consideration. 1t would add much TO the beau
ty of that section of the city. Ed. I'M Rep.

LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM SIERRE LEONE
Horrors Of the SLaUe Trade. The U. S. GA
zette has dates from Sierra Leone TO the 30th
August. Between April LIST, 1871, and nth
May, l845, sixty vessels, with 5000 slaves on
board, had been captured. Five Of the vessels
were destroyed, and the rest condemned.
Among the slayers captured was the "Afri-
cano." At the time it was taken there were
$50, of which number 29 died on her passage
to Freetown, and on the first night of her ar
rival there, 80 more we're hurried into eternity.
| 1T appeared there were two distinct tribes
among the negroes, and during the night they
commenced quarrelling, and being mutually
oxasperated, commenced beating each other
with bilets of wood, and whenever opportu-
nifty offered strangling each other. The next
morning thirty were found dead, and within
two days after, five more died. Five hundred
and twenty-four were at length landed, and
the Watchman says:
An eye witness informs US that the poor
creatures were SO thirsty that they drank the
water out the ends of old canoes, which were
hauled up on the beach, surrounding them like
SO many hounds after hard chase, each push
ing the other for drop of water. On reach
ing the African yard they were supplied with
water, which they drank out of mess tins with
avidity. There was no slave deck on board of
this vessel, and several of the poor creatures
got iammed between the casks, and were Sc
verely bruised; these casks formed their beds to
lie upon.
The officer of the Navy, who brought the
"Africano," stated that the towns of Lagos
on the slave coast, have been completely de-
stroyed. A chief, who was banished from La
gos by the King, about three years ago, re-
turned in July last, with force of ten thou
sand men, drove out the reignng King and his
people, and took possession of the rivers and
town Of Once, 1t is said that in the contest,
upwards of five thousand persons were slain,
and during several nights, the glare of burning
towns Illuminated the air for miles around.
Some of the slavers pursued their trade in
human flesh with great boldness, and one of
them, large brig, fired into and beat off the
boats of British and Portuguese men-of-war.

LATER FROM MExIco-Rumored Overthrow
of Herrdra The New York Sun says it has
received letters few days later from the city
ofMexico, but they contain no certain inform
alton of the actual result of Gen. Paredes' re-
volt There were rumors in Washington last
week that he had overthrown Herraras gov
ernment, and these rumors appear only to be
repeated in the intelligence received by the
Sun. 1t says -
"He had pronounced against the administra-
ton of President Herrara, and was marching
rapidly towards the Capitol, having thrown the
government off their guard by writing to them,
on the same day that he revolted, that he was
going to the Texan frontiers to 'chastise the
Americans He was carrying all before him
on the road, being joined by the forces in the
department. 'Herrara has falIen,' says one of
our correspondents, 'and fierce tyrant of the
order of Santa Ana has assembled the throne of
the Montezumas. We infer from this that
the Capitol has submitted to Paredes. The
rumored movements of France and England in
Mexico indicate an alliance between them and
Paredes. An officer of the Society for the
Union of the North American Republics writes
encouragingly of the Society's prospects, and
says, the revolution of Paredes is only the first
ofa long series of revolutions, planned in Eu-
rope far purpose which the people of Mexico
will yet discover, in time to defeat the whole
scheme and save their country"

The Oregon Treaty.

From an article in the Union,' on the subject of
the Oregon treaty, take the subjoned paragraphs
The Wing presses, we observe, are attributinp 10
the course of the Senate the formation of the treaty
Now, we venture to assert that when all the facts OF
the shall be presented before the public the
course OF the President will appear clear and
tent throughout. Had not the Senate taken in part
the negotiation out Of his hands, we have no doubt
be would have obtained better terms from Great
Britain, even than those which are contained in the
treaty. But these terms, such as they are would
never have been conceded u.s. had it not been for
the firm and energetic, though not offensive stand
taken by the President. II was the recommendation
of the notice. the a6rogation of the existing conven-
ton, and the ether adopted by the President,
which induced Great Britain 10 Weld to the United
States the great and valuable territory between the
Columbia and the fprty-ninth parallel of latitude,
which she had often solemny declared she never
would surrender, and Of which she was in actual
possession.
1t is well knotEu, indeed, that Great Britain has
claimed, stedfastly and from the first her boundary
line the channel of the Columbia river from its mouth
up to the parallel of fortynne degrees and that she
has more than once proclaimed the impoSSibihty of
recedng from that basis of negotiation The country
between the Columbia river and that parallel which
the present treaty is said to spulate, has not yet
been carefully surveyed or measured. But no doubt,
we believe, is entertained that at least two large
States may be formed out Of IT. 9However this may
be, the treaty. rumor describes it. gives US about
three degrees of seacoast the Pacific, with the
eventual exclusive navigation of the chief river

the common navigation of this river not TO British
subjects generally, but to the Hudsons Bay Company,
and this, it is rumored, for limited period
