GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

We publish to-day Gov. Fancc's Message to the Legs
i,,ure of this State. With two exceptions We
are highly pleased with it. One exception is that
Motion relating the suspension of the habeas corpus
writ bv direction of the President and inclined to
think that the Governors remarks that point owing
10 the fact that he unable obtain information
=, tn. time he the Message in regard the OF
Cpcrrss GA the subject The law believe only con.
fr ON the President the power suspend the writ Of
bsbeas corpus at part points and in the neghbor-
hood where our armies may be stationed But it the Act
conferred On tie President greater power than this
,Iouk consider proper the present crisis. 1t is better
for true suffer some Inconvenience than TO have
sacrificed by spies and enemies for the want Of
power in ilary officers to arrest and detain them.
The remarks this very pretty in
theory jGt fear will be found to work bad i'll practice in
time of Laws which do very we'll in peace times
frequently found Insufficient in time of war; and the
Governor himself ssains this remark in another part Of
his message where he speaks of the Inilt2 laws. We
hope the Legislature will put itself in conflict with
the Confedrrat" authorities long it ID possible to
avoid 1t.
Ii will he that the Governor max some
recommendations. That portion of the Message in regard
the IMPROPERLY Of the Act OF the Legislature known
TIE Stay Law, expresses sentiments precisely -
which have time and again expressed i'll
these columns but with much aud clearness.
We also pleased with the Governors remarks about
having North Caroiui.ns command North Carolina
Brgads and with the recommendation continue the
prohibition the dissIllation Of grain In regard high
prices. fear that prohibition OF expectations would
remedy the difficulty i'll fact doubt the pIopcty
of biting the expectation of produce unless Ote!
States had done Tax the Speculation heavily and put
HIM the army for the least effort -vse The as. is
probably the best keep prices ut reasonable Rates
Taking altogether the Message is al excellent one,

ESy- We have received two cOnmun cations from
friend. "a Raleigh which unable publish this
week owing To the pressure upon columns by the
Governor's message &c. One OF our CORES pondents
(" gentleman who heretofore had always eo-operated
with the old whg party speaking of the organization
OF the two Houses of the Legislature, says:
"Everythng prcarranged in caucus by the So
called conservative party tfIoldens pary,) learn
upon good authoritv-a thing regret to see Mt this
time when party strife should be laid aside and the
good Of the country alone considered. The
Natives had 4 caucus on Saturday and presume
Sunday, another ON Monday morning and another
Tuesday and Wednesday nights each. | asked 4 mem
OF that party what they in favor of, and his
r"plr was that they in favor of tuning the
ont and putting the in. SO you NAV expect to see
every prescribed who die Cooperate with the
grumbhng, ftctous conservatives last summer
These conservatives the individuals who pre-
tended last summer not to be actuaed by party feeling
Murder will ont, and so will hypocrisy.
