The Governors Message /.

To the exclusion ofnearly rything
else in the shape of reading matter, and
by crowding out columns Of advertise
ments, We are enabled to insert the
Message of Governor Lowe. Having
received no copy from Des Moines, We
have been furnished by our neighbors of
the Gazette with the matter. Indeed,
We are all somewhat behind time in this
quarter, the Message having appeared
in the Dubuque Tines Of the 10th, aud
in tho Dubuque Herald of the llth inst.
We have only given hasty scanning
to the Message. So far as that hurried
perusal enables us to Judge, We are COM
PEELED to say that it is creditable to the
Ex-Governor. Of course he takes the
Republican view Of state policy, but bis
paper is model, in confning its re-
marks to questions of q state character,
and not spreading its suggestions to em
brace the entire Union. We shall
hereafter, take occasion to speak more
in detail of this Message.

How THE THIsTLs SAVED SCorIA.-
The following is related as the origin Of
the use Of the thistle as the national en-
blem Of Scotland: "When the Danes
invaded Scotland they availed them
selves of the pitch darkness OF night to
attack the Scottish forces unawarcs. In
approaching the Scottish forces unob-
served, and marching barefooted to pre-
vent their tramp being heard, one Of the
Danes trod upon large prickly thistle,
and the sharp cry of pain which he in
stantly uttered suddenly apprised the
Scots Of their danger, who Immediately
ran to their arms, and defeated the foe
With great slaughter. The thistle was
,henceforward adopted as tho national
insignia of Scotland"

XXXVlth COngresS..Flrst Session.

WASHINGTON, Jan 13.
The senate yesterday sdj ,urned till Monday
HoUsg-Mr. Smita, Of Va, said there were
two propositions in the resolutitn Of Mr. Clark
OF Mo the fret was that the doctrine Of Help
er's book are insurrectionary and hostile TO the
peace Of the country. and was not this true
to the very leuer9 Hs asked the question:
The next was that no member Of this house
who endorsed ard recommended doctrines and
sentiments therein atiirmed is fit to be 8 eaker
of this Hous was not this also true? lie wants
ed an answer.
Mr.. Brigham wished only say to the gentle
men Of the House and ihs country that when
the gentlemen denounce that book without
limitation as an incendiary production, he de-
nounces the last will and testament Of Wash
ington, a copy Of which is contained in that
book; the resolution deuouuces the declars-
tion OF the convention of Virginia Of "a in
sttucting the congress at Philadelphia in that
year. The resolution denounces all the truth
ful words OF that distinguished Governor oi
Va. You make the yoke of your slave to
labor like an OK, you may compel him TO live
to work and work to live. and yet the idea that
he was created free will abide with him because
he has the right to the hope of Immortality
The resolution denouBces the slavery senti.
ments of Jefferson, copied from his Notes on
Virginia. namely:
~ tremblc for my country when reflect
that God is just, and has not the attribute to
take sides against the slaves for their rights
and liberty"
The gentleman from Va should also remem. /.
Der that the denunciation in the resolution is q
denunciatiOn Of the words of the Contnen tai
Congress when about entering on the seven
yeays' war, wherein 1t was eaid IN the artlc les
Of association. by the members thereof. that
they held every man or community of men as
envious of American liberty, who were not op
posed to the traffic in slaves. The resolution
denounces that part Of The Declaration Of In
dependence which holos these truths self evi.
dent that all men are created equal, endowed
b v their Creator with certain inaliensble rights
am ong which are life. liberty, and the pursuit
Of b. sppiness; and that when any form Of gov
ernme Mt becomes dertructive of these ends, the
right the people 10 alter or abolish is en-
bodied in this memorable Declaration Tor which
your father Mr. Smith, and my father fought
through the storm and darkness Of . seven
years war.
Mr.. Smith replied that he hoped that the
House understood that The member from Ohio
endorsed the Helper book.
Mr.. Brigham asked the gentleman whether
he repudiates these sen timsnts.
Mr.. Smith "that is not the question. ] wish
the House and country TO understand that he
endorses the book, and for this he deserves the
detestation and scorn Of every man who forms
part Of the American union. (Applauss.)

PETITION FOR DEATH PENALrY.-A
petition 10 in circulation in this city, says
the Stockton Argus, for presentation
before the next Legislature, asking for .
change in the penalty now in force for
highway robbery from imprisonment to
d.ath. A large number Of signatures
has been attached to it. At the last
session of the Legislature, an effort was
made to change our criminal law in
this respect, but failed. The frequency
Of highway robberries since, however,
will no doubt have the effect Of produc-
ing some Legislative action on the sub
ject, and there is prospect ofthe death
penalty will be extended to this crime
as in murder.-San Hancisco Nle-
