MESSAGE OF THE GOVERNOR OF KrsTIrcxy.
L3ul$ul!e, December 7.-The General As
sem5ly OF kentucky met at Frankfort YES
ttrday, and organized by the election Of 81 .
?. Leslie, OF Warren county, as President
OF ne Senate, and j. Fl. Bunch as Speaker
81 the House. The Governors message was
then read. The Governor takes cheerful
view OF the existing condition of affairs in
Kentucky. and makes some important re-
concentrations. Financially the State is in
4 most healthy condition. If the outstand-
ing bonds We're now due and the $40. 1885
due from the Revenue Department proper
10 the State was returned. the resources
would be more than sufficient to pay off the
state debt. He recommends that the ques-
ton Of calling convention for the revision
Of the Constitution be submitted to the
people; that a general law Of incorporation
for banks and other companies be enacted
under which any company may organize by
putting the terms Of its organization on
record and giving notice, and that bu-
reau Of insurance be established as safe
guard,
Referring to the various acts of violence
committed il the State last summer, he as
>erts determination TO call out the militia
FOR the arrest Of offenders on all occasions
when the peace Of the Commonwealth may
demand such action. He suggests a repeal
Of he present militia law, and inclines to
Tho opinion that the volunteer system is the
best. The Governor takes broad ground
on tn question Of emigration. He suggests
the circulation in Europe of correct infor-
nation as to the advantages open to immi-
grants in Kentucky, that more capital and
skilled labor may lind their way to this State.
In conclusion, he refers to the friendly spirit
that is so rapidly taking the place Of preju-
diccs engendered by the war, and urges a
calm protest against the uSurpations Of GEN.
traiiZed power.

Special telegram to the Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, December s, 1869.
The Senate Judiciary Committee takes
up the cases Of Virginia and Georgia to-
morrow. It is understood that the action
by Congress on the case Of Georgia will be
postponed until after the meeting Of the
Legislature Of that State in January, in
order TO see what that body will do as to the
expulsion Of members about which the
controversy exists. It is alleged that her
State courts have decided that the expul-
sion of members was Illegal, and therefore
it is supposed that the Legislature will take
some action on the subject.
General Fremont is expected here to-
morrow to push his bill for right-of-way
for the Memphis, Ell Paso and Pacific rail-
road. A bill has twice passed the House
for this purpose by decided majorities and
it is the general opinion that Congress will
pass the measure, because Of the fact that
no subsidy is asked from the Government,
but merely the right-of-way through public
domain is sought. There is lobby league
here, representing projects to obtain SUBJ
sides IN land and money, who are opposed
to Fremont's road. WALLACE.
