| We subjoin Governor WRIGHr's remarks on
Federal politics:
Throughout the past year peace and harmony
between the various sections of the Union have
been gradually and firmly established. The great
disturbing questions, which for time threatened
results the ultimate issue of which no man could
ioresee, have been put to rest and with it the
heart burnings and sectional recriminations which
it brought in its train. Our present tranquility
the best evidence of the wisdom and prudence oil
the measures of adjustment adopted by the last
| Congress.
1.-The high conservative ground maintained by
our State is shown in the fact that we support nc
man who fayors agitation. Our people want peace
and they esteem sacrifice short of that of prin-
ciple, too great to secure it.
INDIANA hoius MN an enemy 10 the well being
OF this Republic who pursues any course tendin 2
to widen the breach between the North and the
South. Minor questions sink into insgnfcance
compared to the great paramount duty Of every
American citizen, the preservation Of the integrity
of the Union.
each and all of the laws constituting that Com.
promise, which has been oil cast upon the trou-
bled waters, are assented to, and have been car
ried out. SO far as they apply to us, in word and
letter, according to the stricest judicial consruc-
ton, by the citizens of our State. This has been
done cordially, and with an approach to
hearty unanimity az any measure enacted 10 re-
concile similar sectional differences can ever be ex-
pected to receive.
"lndiana desires to see the compromises made
under the Constitution, and expressly framed to
carry into effect its provisions, remain undis-
turbed. She says TO the South, as well as to the
North, that these measures must stand-that this
sectional controversy must not again be opened
up-that time, rs an element which enters into
every thing that is valuable must test their wis
dom and efficacy that, from whatever quarter OF
the Union efforts shall be made to revive this sec
| tional agitation, Indiana is against it.
=" She favors not, nor will she by her votes coun-
tenance those who favor, the opening afresh, in
any manner, under any pretence, the questions SO
recently and 80 happily disposed Of, let us hope
forever Our duty is plain-abide by the past, sus-
tain the measures faithfully, cease agitation, and
tru'tJor the future to The intelligence and patriotism
Of the people, under the guidance of Providence"

"The,series of measures to which ! have alluded

[PREsDENT FILLMoRE's MESSAGE OF 1850.
" The Presidents message, at the opening of the
present session Of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion of all

in their mutual dependence and connexion a sys-

Message of the Governor of Indiana.

| Governor WRIGHT, in his annual message to
the Legislature of Indiana, gives a favorable
account of the financial affairs of that State,
consequent upon the exercise of economy and
the gradual development of local resources.
The ordinary expenses for the year ending the
| 3lst October amounted to ST. $40, being re-
duction of ST. 1904 as compared with the
previous year. The entire revenue during
the same period was $50S, 056, being an
excess over the previous years income of
| $50, SD The ordinary expenses for the en-
suing year are estimated at $l33, 500, the in
crease being principally in anticipation of pro-
tracted session of the Legislature. A surplus
of 500 900 is, however, anticipated, and the
Governor recommends that the amount be APP
piled to liquidation of portion of the princ-
pal of the public debt. The domestic debt is
so nearly liqpdated that he advises that the
holders of State scrip be called upon to present
the same for payment within limited period.
The wisdom and proprietof the revenue
laws adopted at the last session Of the Legis-
lature are declared to be manifested in the
large increase of taxable property returned for
the current year. Returns already received
warrant the statement that the whole amount
of taxable property placed on the duplicate of
1851 will be not less than $2l0,000,000, be-
ing an increase of $73,000,000 over the pre-
vious year.
The condition of the universities, under the
charge of different denominations, is pronounced
highly furnishing; though it is remarked that,
while these have been sustained zealously, the
common schools of the State have been wofully
neglected. Governor WRIGHr strongly urges
the duty of establishing a thorough system Of
common schools, and of appointing Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction, with wholesome
administrative and visitorial powers. The
common school fund Of the State is set down at
81 ,664 ,279, which the constitution allows to be
increased and never diminished. This estimate
shows productive fund of over $4,5l0,000,
which will be constantly augmented by the re-
ceipt Of fines and forfeitures, and the profits of
the sinking fund.
Some stress is laid upon the attention which
is being paid in various parts of the State to
manufactures, and to the development of her
immense mineral resources Provision is re-
commended for a geological and typographical
survey of the State, with view TO attract cap
ital, skill, and labor. Another recommends
ton is, that liberal annual appropriation be
made to the State Board of Agriculture, with a
view to the encouragement of agricultural in
dustry and enterprise.
In connexion with the execution of the 18th
article Of the new constitution, prohibiting ne
groes and mulattoes from entering into or settling
within the State, the Governor invites atten-
ton to the subject of colonizing the blacks al
ready there. He says:
at s very desirable that the subject of COLOMBIA.
