From the Bait. Elzchangel
The Governors Message.


The Governor begins BY referring 10
the inconvenience of biennial sessions. and
the shortness Of the period, prescribed By
the Constitution, for the discharge Of the
grave duties Of the law-naking power.
Economy in the use of the short time al
lottcd for that purpose. and the utmost
dispatch consistent with proper delibcra-
ton in passing laws. are become moro iin-
portant than ever, in view Of the aclsnowl-
edged necessities of the public service, and
the refusal of the people of the State, last
May, to sanction the calling Of = Conven-
ton to amend and alter the Constitution.
The vote by which that decision was de-
clared the Governor sums up. as amount
| ing ii the aggregate to 39, 62S ballots-of
which Is. S52 were IN favor Of . Uonvcn-
ton and "a ZIG against it.
The hrs! Subject which the Governor
conmends to the attention of the Legisla-
ture is the condition Of the State Finances
This he finds to be highly satisfactory, at
testing alike .'the wisdom of the legisla-
ton which has secured such result, and
the faithfulness Of the officers who control
her treasury" The funded debt of the
State on the Both September. 1858, was
SI4,862, 510.26, against which is set off
the Sinking Fund Of 81 ,5S2. 975. %. show
ing the amount on which the State pays
interest to be be less than eleven millions
of dollars. The active and productive
capital Of the State amounts to moro than
eight millions of dollars. OF this sum
S468. 4O6. G6 are invested in Bank Stocks
yielding an annual return Of eight per
cent; $3.50, 900 in the Stock of the Wash
ington Branch of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, paying from nine to ten per cent;
three millions in the shape Of preferred
Stock in that Road, on which six per cent.
interest is assured, and $685. 600 are in
vested in the general stock Of the Road.
The Governor congratulates the Legislature
on the States investments in our great
work Of internal improvement, and COM
plimenfs the present management Of the
Road for its ssiudicious economy, expe-
rience and ability.
The near coincidence between the amount
Of revenue received in the year ending
September 80, II 200, $50. IT. and that
disbursed during the same period (S1 129. :
500 .62) suggests an argument against any
immediate reduction Of the direct tax.
The attention Of the Legislature is d.
rected TO the propriety Of shortening the
terms of confinement in the PenItentiary
for offences Of lighter grade. The Gov
ernor also recommends the repeal Of the
law which forbids the discharge ofeonyicts

a Miracle in Washington-Mr. Buch-
anan a Witness.

DIR. T. l. Nichols, formerly of New
| York, and of late years proselyte to the
Roman Catholic faith, gives the following
account of what he prouounccs miracu-
lous cure, of which Dir. Bnchanan was a
witness, in Washington. It is related In
lecture delivered in Troy on the evening
/ Of December 7th:
THE Church Of Christ was founded in
the world by the aid Of miracles or NANTES
tations Of supernatural character. These
miracles were wrought by our Lord, and
he promised that they who followed him
should do even greater deeds. When did
they cease Tie Protestanfs say with the
APOSTLES, but every Catholic knows that
miracles have continued down to the pre-
sent hour. They know that every age OF
(! the Church has been marked BY these
manifestationH-tha the blind have been
made to see, The deaf to hear-that lepers
have been cured, and the dead raised from
their graves. down to our own era. Such
things have taken place in this country,
and numerous instances well authenticate
ed, supported By the best Of proof, may
be quoted to show the correctness Of this
statement. i viii only relate near In
stance 10 which the power and influence Of
these supernatural manifestations were re-
markedly exhibited.
