IMPORTANT REcoMMENDArJoN. The
Governor sent into both Houses on Wed.
nesday. special message, recommending
the assumption of the Territorial indebted.
ness by the State. This recommendation
was accompanied with the statement that
the Federal Government would credit the
amount Of said Indebtedness upon our d.
rect national tax, levied in 1861, which
amounts to about S71 900. This would in
reality be paying two just debts with one
issue of bonds. The amount of the Ter
ritorial debt is between sixty and seventy
Thousand dollars.
The Message was not reached in the
House. In the Senate it was read, and
two hundred copies ordered to be printed.
A bill to this effect will undoubtedly pass.

proposing to amend the constitution to re-

glad to see that our Legislature is disposed
