LegIsIature--Gov.B Banks

Message.
BosToN, Jan. THE Legislature having
organized, Gov. Banks sent his message IN
to-day. 1t was mainly devoted to local al
fairs, and closes with a review of the Kansas
difficulties. The funded debt of the State is
$l,300,O00. Provision is made for all but
S2l5,000. Unless the expenses of the State
be reduced on last year, there will be def
cit OF 100000 to be met by the State Tax.
Gov. Banks urges economy reduction OF
the Legislature session to sixty days, aud the
payment of members by fixed salary. lie
recommends suppression of bank notes un-
der the denomination of FIVE dollars, aud after
three or FIVE years a suppression OF all under
ten dollars. He refers the naturalization
question to the Legislature, with whom he
will cheerfully concur in the adoption OF
measures to maintain the purity Of our cleo
tions, and protect the rights of american
citizens.
Concerning Kansas he says, Nothing but
direct intervention Of federal influence eau
force through Congress the Lecom ptCn Con-
stitution," and land if the Government with
the sanction of the people can force upon
Kansas a Constitution conceived in fraud
and violence" it will be the "weightiest blow
ever given againsta free government"
