The Legislature last evening was chiefly e
gagged in the third reading Of bills, but they VIC
generally of a local character.
THE GOVERNORS VETO MESSAGE.
think you have not printed the Governors late vel
As the objections contained In it apply TO large
Der of bills now before the Legislature think yon
better publish it, The bill for the relief of Mary He
nessey which occupied so much time in the Sem
Yesterday, is one of the kind. as I understand IT,
Mrs. Hennessey had lived five miles IRON canal q
suffered the damage she did does any one suppose
would have come TO the Legislature for relief
course not. But because 1t Is her fortune 10 live np
the canal she wants the State 20 pay for the desrue
Of her property though do not understand that II
pretended she would have suffered less had there be
no canal near her. Let the Legislature begin to
claims of this sort and there will be 20 end 10 the
People residing off the canals, who are injured
| foods will be here next year for damages.
STATE OF NRwi ioRK, EXECUTIVE DEPIRTsKsT,
ALBANY, March 19, 1866
To TEE SENATE: herewith return, without my appro,
Bill No. 81 entitled AN act for the relief Of the
Of Amsterdam and Florida in the County OF Montgomery
The bill provides that the Canal Appraisers shall take
in the title arising from loss OF injury portion
bridge over the Mohawk River in the spring Of s65 and
case they of the opinion that the State shoad be liable
such damages, an award shall be made therefor
unable to discover in the body Of this bill any
confrrrng jurisdiction upon the Canal Appraisers
Of this character Nor Unde rstand upon what princI
Of liability the State should assume responsibility for danss
river bridge that has been partially wholly
by food Whatever there may be TO justify such
ordinary enactment is not therein disclosed The dana
and property referred to in this instance oc.
stoned in ali probability by the food that proved dssro
many parts the in the Spring of 1855 and
quence OF which large pecunisry bGrdens incurred
various aies to repair rebuild what bad been thus
jnred destroyed. The recognized rule OF liability on
part Of the state applies only that class Of damages
from prosecution Of public works from the neglect
the agents of the Government and not to injuries result
from the action Of the elements
II TO clear that the bill would tend 10 disturb
settled of the State and 10 engrs upon tine prese
innovation The most liberal construction in favor
individuals already prevails and the doctrine OF State ob
ton has been pushed TO the utmost limit consistent with
manifest nights Of the State.
While it true that BY bin the question Of sbity
submitted TO the decision of the Appraiser TO appt
to the Canal Board yet experience has demonstrated that
claim having the sanction OF special thereby

of getting to the Governor for signature as the Scr
