GOVERNORS ADDRESS.
Gentlemen ofhe Snats

One moro circle Of tho political year com.

care to attend to the Commonwealth on its
entrance upon it, annual round OF active

~, and invested " with full power to make
and establish all reasonable laws and regu-
la,ions for tho defence and benefit OF the
State" Your " declaration Of the choics"
Of tho people. while IL summons mo To a
separate department under the constitution,
invites suggestion, corporation and asscn.
in the exercise Of the powers chiefly oonfded
to you. The checks provided, as we'll in the
two distinct branches Of the Legislature rs

cate with what ralous care these important
functions have been guarded and with wha,
'olicitude we should approach the discharge
Of the duties devolvins upon Us. Looking
to the grcat Legislator Of tho Universe for
guidance. may these du ties be performed in
a manner to promote tho hishc.. good Of
the State.
The financial condition Of tho State will
arrest your attention, and will be found TO
be such as TO demand tho practice OF the
most exact economy in every branch Of the
public service, and the careful scrutiny OF
the legislature in tho expenditures author
ned. That sense in which a national debt

people nor should /, bc presumed their
loyalty and patriotism will 30 increased with
their burdens.
The absolute necessities Of tho State are
deemed to be tho only safe rule upon which
grants Of money can justly be made to be
levied in taxes upon the polls and estates.
Tho truc aim of Republican institutions /.
to ensure the creates, degree Of comfort 10
each individual. and will therefore leave the
people in the cnjoyment OF all their means
no, required for an upo,tentatious admins
tration Of the government.
The expenditures OF the government, have
been constantly Augmentins Of late years,
not only keeping pace with increasing pop
ulation, but many new items Of di'burss-
msn,s have been added by way OF our char.
table, rriormatory, educational and aeri.
cultural Institutions, and old ones increased,
until the ordinary receipts are Tar behind
tho annual demands upon the treasury
presenting q, once the stern alternative OF 4
constantly advancing annual tax, or re'
/ ,ronehment and economy. This view will
DO shown by contrasting the ordinary sI'
prnses Of the years lsiI to 1919, inclusive
with thos3 Of a later period.
Oxford Democrat. [volume] (Paris, Me.) 1833-1933, 1859-01-14

Showing an average annual expenditure
during the Gr,t period OF S252, 900, and Of
$3.50, 900 during the latter period-an ave-
rage annual e1ecss OF the latter over the
former of $l6i,OOO, and aggregate excess
Of SIgl 200 Tor the throc years.
This increase in the annual expenditures
is mainly attributable to the adoption Of a
moro liberal policy for the promotion Of
general education, the Advancement OF az.
rieulture. aud TOR the establishment and
Tor the establishment and support Of chari.
table and reiormatory institutions. The
wisdom and humanity OF tho policy OF tho
State Is unquestionable; and yet IL greatly
increases the sphere Of It's duties and the de-
mands upon its bounty, while it introduces
into the public service new element Of
public solleitudc, requiring the utmost viz
or aud watchlulness under the Humanitarian
impulses of the age, to keep in check the
constant tendency to press upon the verge
beyond which public charity becomes ex-
excessive liberality with the money Of the
people, and oppressive.
There is another class Of items which 50
to swell the annual expenditures. regret
to say. not in themselves meritoriou', and
which exist only as ab.ses, Of minor impor,
individually, but large in the aggregate and
which need to be corrected, appropriations
for which, | deem it my duty to state should
receive the careful scrutiny Of each depart
ment Of tho government.
The liabilities Of the State are; Public
debt, 5000, 500; Trust Fund. SI2i, ,5TTT GO;
making sl,lal,OI 02. The former is pay
able in unequal sums Of not less than thirty
nor more than ffty thousand annually, and
all at the close Of 1876, while annual inter.
est is payable upon the latter for the sup
port Of common schools, Indian aunuities,
&C., &c.
The resources OF the State are its public
lands and securities in the Land Otlice.-
These securities are nominally Sl2S 900, a
moiety Of which, at least, | fear will be lost
to the Treasury, and the legislation Of 1856
will need to be applied to the balance ,c

There arO at the present, time about two
million acres Of public lands. or these

Ting ldnds, and under our present policy,
or any that 1t would be thought wise to
adopt. will yield no revenue to the treasury
The residue, under a judicious system OF
annual permits and occasional sales, might
DO made to yield, 1t is believed, SUN subj
cient to eItinguish the public debt.
The approximate estimate OF receipts and
expenditures for the current year, furnished
ine by the Treasurer, are: receipts $685.
900; expenditures $4,000. This osti-
mate includes al item Of $4,000 OF the
public debt payable the present year, and
which I recommend should DO paid. and
not renewed, and thu. begin, what should
be the settled policy. to pay and cancel the
public debt Of the State as it natures. This
