LOW STATE SALARIES

We have always been of opinion that the sys.
tenn of low salaries to public officers which pre-
walls in most of the States was unwse and i'm
polite. To take no other view of the subject, it
is sufficient to our mind that the system lowers the
dignity that should attach to our State officers sup
presses wholesome State PRIDE and drives many
of the best citizens to seek Offices under the General
Government who would otherwise devote their
talents and patriotism to the interest of their own
State.
We make these remarks to introduce the sub
joined extract from the recent message of Gov
ernor Adams, of South Carolina, with the hope
that it may attract public attention in Tennessee
where the carrying out oft suggestions is 80 much
needed.
AS my term of Office is about to expire, feel ne
delicacy in making certain recommendations in re-.
lation to the department. The salary Of the Gov
ernor is wholly inadequate to the maintenance of
the proper repectabilty and dignity Of the station
/ have avoided all unnecessary expense; have in
dulged in no display wbstever; and from my expe.
rienee, have no hesitation in saying, that no man
can dispense the ordinary hospitality expected of
him, nor maintain that style which our people very
properly associate with the station, without draw
in the gift Of the people should not be one which
the wealthy only can afford to accept. 1t is no an
to say, there is no want of aspirants for the
| position Willing public servants are not gener-
ally the most efficient. The republican standard OF
compensation for all public service is what which
will command the talent that is able to serve the
commonwealth. 1t too often happens that he
who has given his life to the public, entails upon
| his family the incidents of wasted fortune
l recommend that the salary of the Governor
| be increased to FIVE thousand dollars; and that
he be required to reside at the capital. On this
latter point, invite your attention to the follow.
| ing extract from the message of the late Gov.
Johnson: "The Office is tinerant and follows the
person of the Executive wherever his necessities
or convenience may compel him to reside. This
| is utterly Inconsistent with the necessary order
and uniformity in the conduct of the business Of
the officer. He cannot carry with him all the
books, documents, and vouchers, nor his Secrets.
ry. He must either dispense with him, or subject
him to an expense which would swallow up his
small salary. The citizens, too, are interested to
know where the Executive may be found, and il
he has no fixed residence are obliged to go in pur
sui: through highways and by paths They may
chance to pass him on the way, without knowing
him "a case of actual occurrence) The true rem.
edy is to provide him a residence at the seat o
| government, and require him to reside there per
| manently F"

FROM NICARAGUA.

New YORK, Nov. % The Heralds correspondence
says sdvices have been received by the State De.
partment to the effect that Chill and Peru had
agreed to contribute men and money to aid the
Central American States in the determination of
General Walker. Ecuador and New Grenada
have been both solicited to enter into the same ar
rangement but the New Grenadians have declined
having any thing TO do with the scheme. Ecuador,
it is thought, will come in and furnish its share.
