GovERsoR's MEssAGE.-In another column will be
found Governor Wells annual message to the Legs-
lature In speaking OF it, the New Orleans Times
saws:
The message of Gov. Wells fills too large space
| in our columns The Governor has managed to work
himself into such position that bis views and recon-
mcndaons will receive far less consideration than are
usually accorded to such communications Even what
be saws of State and CITY affairs that may be in ac-
cordaice with sound policy and the opinions Of the
Intelligent and rejecting OF citizens, will give little
weight strength to the measures he recommends,
The poison contained in the paragraph of the message
concerning political relations tans and corrupts the
whole document, and excludes it from all kindly and
favorable consideration the part of the vast majority
of the LEGISLATURE and the people.
"a Governor who so dsregards the will of the
neonlc hv whose will and suffrage he holds his Office
can expect little considers or respect from the
nannIc or her representatives His proposition that
the Legislature shall accept the constitutional amend
ment us just and proper will receive no Etretth from
his sanction, while his suggestion that even such ac
ccptance will never with his consent, be received as
nalitv for the admission and restoration of the late
rebel States may suggest an additional argument
against the acceptance he counses. lie involves him.
self with the majority in Congress- in an attempt to
perpetuae gross breach of faith political fraud by
holding out to the rebel States the acceptance OF the
amendment as the condition of readmssion OF the
Southern States and then adding the proyiso that
further concession will be demanded. If this be the
intent of the majority of Congress, of what earthly
benefit will it be to the South to accept these amend
ments? There is something so audaciously tortuous
and treacherous in these Inconsistent propositions that
feel that the only mode OF treating them is to pass
them by with silent contempt Indeed, these feelings
were so profound and absorbing, as to embrace the
whole scope of the Governors message-which, we
hope will be quietly and quickly deposited in some
dark Of legislative archives, far out Of
sight of present and future generations possible
