GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

The following message from his Excellency
Gov. Walker was communicated on Wednesday
last, the 9th inst, to the General Assembly.
Gentlemen of the Senate and House of Delegates
On entering upon the discharge of my duties
as che Chief Executive of the State under the
constitution on the 9th day of January last, ex-
cepting that of Attorney-G General I found near
ly every Office in the Commonwealth either va
cant or filled by military appointee The Of
flee of Lieutenant Governor, made vacant by
the resignation of the Hon. John f. Lewis, was
filed by the appointment of John L. Marye,
Esq, who duly qualified on the 9th day of
January last. The authority for this appoint
ment Is contained in the fifth section of the
fourth article OF the constitution. The neces-
slty for the prompt exercise of this authority
was SO apparent and pressing that l was unwi-
ing TO assume the responsibility Of delaying it.
Twelve days would elapse before the assembling
OF your honorable bodies, and probably several
days thereafter before you could make suitable
provision TOR filling the Office In the meantime
the death OF the Governor would have left the
State without an Executive head. and ineyita-
bly,. thrown Its affairs into confusion franpht
with the greatest dangers. The commission Of
Lleu4 naht-uoVernor Marye will expire thirty
days from the commencement of your present
session, and it will be the duty of the General
Assembly to make timely provision for filing
the office thereafter. The Secretary of the Com
monwealth, the First and Second Auditors and
the Register of the Land Office severaly tender
ed their designations to me, to take effect on
the lst instant. For many reasons | did not
deem it advisable to accept any of these resigna
tons, and the duties appertaining to those Of
noes have continued to be discharged by the
former Incumbents. To solve all legal doubts
as to whether these officers could hold over af
ter the restoration of the State to civil govern
ment, as well as to perfect the prompt oreaniza
ton OF the State government under the consti-
tuition, L trust the General Assembly will pro
coed at once to fill these Offices, as we'll as that
of Treasurer
PENTTENTIARY,
You have also to elect Superintendent and
a General Agent and Storekeeper of the ,neni-
tertiary, and the earlier you perform that i'm

THELEGAL TENDER CASES In the Supreme
Court Monday week, Chief Justice Chase read
lengthy opinion of the Court on the legal
tender cases, to the effect that the statute max
ing Treasury notes legal tender for private
debts, could not be made constitutionaly ap-
plicable to debts contracted before the passage
of the act or, in other words, that all debts
contracted prior to the passage of the legal
tender act must be paid in gold, and parties
could not take advantage of that act to cancel
obligations made prior to it in greenbacks. 1t
is also intimated 10 the opinion that the issuing
of legal tenders was war necessity, and the
war having now terminated, it was the duty OF
the government to retire them as fast as posi-
BILE, and no necessity existed for issuing any
more Justices Miller, Swayne and Davis dis
scented.
