We are highly pleased to see that Gov.
King is in favor of that just and equitable
measure, the homestead exemption, and
we sincerely trus, it will pass the Lcgisla-
ture and become law. Such law can
inure no one, whilst i, affords home for
the family of the unfortunate, and gives
cheerful heart to those who receive no
mercies from the cold charities of selfish
world. 1t will place it out of the power
of creditor who may happen to be re-
leniless enough, to crush down SO COM
pletely an unfortunate debtor that he can.
not rise again. What cares such credi-
tor, after he has wrested from the hands
of some poor victim of misfortune, the last
precious relic he held dear on carth-the
whether his family has roof
TO shelter them or not. There are thou.
sands Of such instances occur annually,
and thousands of happy hearts made sad
by the misery brought on them by ungen.
erous creditors. Il appears TO he the
almos, universal wish Of the people Of this
State that such law should be enacted

Governors Message.

We continue the publication of thi' import.
ant document. We have not seen any one, of
any party, who is not pleased with it. The
Governors views on internal improvements,
it is not improper to remark here, appear to be
acceptable To the d inocrats of this region,
as they are to the Wings. 1t is one ,harac-
ter,tic Of a FREQ and Enlightened people, that
opiaion, Oh ,nga when reason and experience
have ,hoNn them 20 be erroneous. |, is mark
OF honesty and PATRIOTISM when man honest
ly avows his change of opinion, and is willing
to act accordingly.

In compliance with my constitutional duty,
have now given TO the General Assembly, the

,ions, that have deemed necessary and cxpedi.

and prosperous State.
My suggestions have bean made with gree.
di lence, but with no other motive than sin
cere desire that they may lead to the advance
IN ent of the public good. My diIlilonce in all
that have said however, is greatly relieved,
from the consideration that your deliberations
will enable ! OH to give such direction to them,

Review of the Pork Market.

As the season Is about drawing to close we
presen, our readers, this week with the actual
number Of hogs and cattle cut at hi, point up
to the present time.
The number Of hogs cut is, in round NUN.

shows ;lll,ng of of sbont one third.
From information derived from reliable sour
ces ? we are satisfied the same state Of facts ex

bove thi. place, with perhaps, the exception Of
of Warsaw, at which place VIC are told there
" iii be an excess over last years cuttings Of
about 1000 head.
1t i. also worthy Of remark, that last season
owing to the low prices ut which hogs ruled,
large number were cured into bacon, by ,he
farmers themselves. The prices this year be.
