The Governors Message.

The Cincinnati GQsettc thus introduces an alb
stract Of tho message Of the Governor of Tennes
see
On Wednesday Gov. Brownlow was duly inaugur
ated. He delivered q crodtable and somewhat
characteristic inaugural and subsequcn tly regular
/ message.
The message is OF moderate length, and states
nanlike document. After an introduction of grace
full Thanksgiving for the favorable condition Of both
State and National affairs, he proceeds to speak
Of secession as an abomination against which
the representatives of the people could not legsate
too severely. After describing the ravages produced
by secession, he regards with full heart the condi-
ton of the thousands of Union refugees who are al
most naked and starving, and invokes for them the
solicitude of the Legislature
In the Senatorial branch of the Legislature, the
following compliment was paid to the message by
the proceedings Of that body
The Select Committee on Public Printing made
the following
REPORT.
We the Select Committee, to whom was referred
the subject of printing u number of copies of the
message OF Gov. Brownlow, in German, French and
Italian, ask leave to report that they have had the
same under consideration, and submit the following
No facts which have come 10 the knowledge of
the Committee would, in their opinion, require the
printing of that important document in French or
Italian. If such facts exist they may hereafter be-
come manifest when action can be taken according
ly. But the Committee are of opinion that many
reasons exist, which make it exceedingly right and
proper to circulate the message in the German Ian
guage. Among others we may mention the rapid
increase of that population in the State-ther 81.

ton, and their almost universal and devoted LOYALTY

fore ordered to be printed, Of the Governors Mes

perintend the same as other job printing. All of
which is respectfully submitted.
