The length of the Governors Message
precludes extended comment this morn
ing. 1t is devoted entirely to the affairs
of the State and matters coming legiti-
mately before the Legislature and IN
this respect, is in better taste than the
messages of many other governors the
bulk of whose communications to their
respective Legislatures consists OF dis
sussion of national politics and a re-hash
of political campaign speeches. The
message calls the attention Of the Leg1s-
lature to the various defects in the oper'
alton of the present laws and presents a
kind of review of the transactions OF the
various branches of the State govern
ment during the past year. 1t lays out
for the Legislature great deal OF work
TO be done at the present session. We
will discuss the merit of some Of its re-
commentators at another time.

Analysis Of tho Massachusetts State AsSayer,
- .. January 25s 1853.
When eyaporated through clean linen it left no
PURE spirituous liquor. The Oil which gives to
this Brandy its flavor and aroma, is wholly unlike
fusil or grain oil. Its odor partakes Of both the
fruit and oil of grapes. With acids, it produces
others Of high fragrance. The substitution of
this Brandy for Cognac Brandy will do away
with the manufacture of fictitious spirits, sold
under this name both at home and abroad.

I have analysed LYONS PURE CATAWBA
BRANDY" with reference to its composition
and character, being the same as that produced
In past years. A sample taken from ten casks
afforded the same results with regard to purity;
slightly increased amount of the principle on
which its flavor depends was determined by COM
parison with former samples.
The indications of analysis show that this
Brandy is produced by the same process as most
of the imported Brandy.

John Stuart Mill.

A foreign correspondent who saw
this distinguished man at II public
meeting at Westminster, just before
his election to ParliamG mt, describes
him thus {: ......
He is about five feet ten inches in
height, with sharp analytic face,
His forehead is high, but not broad
He has an immense development of
the perceptives, of comparison and
human nature, with less causality
and ideality, and again very large
veneration and Grlnness. 1t is a face
and head exquisitely refined and
spiritualized. 1t was, of olrse, an
experience for this bookish and
closistered man to address public
meetings, and to be the object Of such
tremendous physical demonstrations
Of homage but through the whole
evening his self command was per,
feet, the only external sign Of agita-
ton being in the flush upon his face
and a slight nervous twiching
beneath the eyes during the fire.

Stratcgy.-A young lady was ad-
dressed by Il young man who, though
agreeable to her was disliked by
her father. OF course tie could not
consent to the Union and she deter
mined to elope. The night was fixed.
the hour came, he placed the ladder
to the window, and in a few minutes
she was in his arms. They mounted
i double horse, and was soon SOM
distance from the house. After a
while the lady broke the silence by
saying: "Weil, you see what a proof
l have given you of my affection !;
l hope you will make me a good
husband. =" He was surly fellow
and grultly answered: perhaps !
may and perhaps not She made
no reply, bat after silence of some
minutes she suddenly excl aimed
"Oh what shall l do; lett my
money behind me in my room -
Then" said he, eve must go back
and fetch it," They were soon again
at the house, and the ladder re-
mounted, while the ill.uatured lover
waited below. But she delayed to
come, and he gently called; Are
you comuing? 2" she looked out the
window and said "Perhaps | may
and perhaps not; - then shut down
the window and left him TO return
upon the double horse alone. Was
not that happy though, on the
lady'S part-a famous Joke.

From the New York News.
Beyond the Arbitrament Of War.

A false impression prevails with
some Northerners in regard to the
obligations of the Southern people
An enlightened community, having
determined a political issue by supre-
macy in arms, would exhibit most
ungenerous and impolitic spirit in
demanding from their PROSTATE foe
the violation Of the plainest laws that
govern human nature. Yet there
are some in the North who demand
that the people of the South, in to-
ken of their submission, shall sur
render their convictions, their in
stincts, their right of thought, their
emotions, and every moral attribute
that constitutes manhood. Thus the
New York Times is indignant be-
cause Bishop Elliott of Georgia
preached "a sermon over the body of
his beloved friend and brother, Polk"
Would our contemporary have had
the body Of that distinguished divine
and soldier cast to the dogs without
Christian burial, without tribute
of respect from his friends and COM
rades, and with curses in lien of
benediction? Bishop Elliott has
written letter in which he says i.
II think it is our duty to guard the
memory of deceased Bishops, Meade,
Otey, and, especially our beloved
Polk. They have lived and died for
us. and, however wrong others may
think of them, werevere their memory
end weep over their graves" We
appeal to the decorum Of the North
ern public to judge if that is not a
proper sentiment for Southerners to
entertain toward their countrymen
who have fought and persisted in the
cause of the ConfedeIacy. Meade,
Otey and Polk may have erred in
their views upon the political ques-
tions involved in the war, but none
have the right to assert that they
were not sincere in their opinions,
nor actuated by conscientious be-
lief that they were in discharge of a
patriotic duty. 10 insist that the
South shall consign such names to
infamy is to stand in antagonism
with the first principals that govern
human nature in its loftiest and
purest essence. A people of noble
and generous instincts cannot be ex-
pected to stigmatize a cause for which
they have suffered so much, in which
they periled their lives and fortunes,
and that, in their estimation, is con-
secrated by the blood of their best
and bravest. The world would cry
shame, If, in the hearts and ON the
lips of the men, the women, and the
children of the South, the memory of
Stonewall Jackson lived with other
sentiments than those of reverence,
gratitude, and affection. We can

What a Woman Would do if she could.

Mrs. Caroline ID. Hall writes to the
Boston Advertiser "If L were wealthy I
would Immediately establish school to
teach poor rough women to wash common
clothes well, and to clean house without
doing mischief, at fifty cents day and
their board. At their price, far better
wages than these women now earn, hund-
reds of mechanics families in every large.
town would hire at least two days' work
a week.
Then l would train class of girls to-
mend furniture, to repair veneer
ing, to but on bolts, locks, etc., to hang
windows and set glass. The farmers
wives in the country do these things
themselves. They would gladly pay to
have them done. OF the more skillfuf
workers, would not you or be glad to
find neat, tidy woman, who could hang
paper, paint mock boards, patch broken
