CONSERVATISM OF THE STATE OF MAINE.

Governor HUBBARD, of Maine, delivered his In
augural Address on Monday. The Governor COM
mences his address with discussion of national
politics, and particularly of the compromise mea-
sures of the last Congress. He thinks that the
final adjustment made was not such as either party
had desired, but the most satisfactory to both,
which, under the circumstances could be obtained.
He gives his views at length on the question of
the shgher law" and in this connexion holds
the following language
"a dangerous doctrine never advanced. 1t
would be subveve alike all society and all government
Our institutions founded the right Of the majority to
CONTROL limited and restrained by the provisions of the con-
stituton
"Every Government must have controlling power
and will without which, government could exist. The
controlling will Of the voice Of the majority, manifested
through the balobox. Every is allowed to entertain
his opinions, to pomulgae and enforce them upon the
convictions Of others Every Of Government he has
unqueoned right and discuss-by argument

power who may modify abrogate it at their pleasure But
when he goes step further and claims the right deter

execution he claims that which Government concede
and exist; he would exercise power which would subve
all government When he counses inces the violation

very spirit Of repubcansm."
The finances of the State are represented as be-
ing in very satisfactory condition. The public
debt is about $6OO,500, payable in annual sums up
to 1860. The proceeds Of the public lands, which
set apart to meet this debt will furnish ample
means for several years to come, if they be not
eventually sufficient to extinguish the debt. The
current annual expenses of the State Government,
including interest on State debt amount to about
5000 600.
