ten the ludicrous exhibition hc then
made. The Governor learns slowly. With
fingers still bistered from his former expert
ment, he might hnve been moro cautious In
again pulling out Tammany's chestnuts. The
man who has any character to lose will not take
the risk of charging that the late election in
this city was in the slightest degree controlled
by Gen. McDowell's thin battalions. But per-
haps Gov. Hoffman thinks this case involves
no risk for him.
On the whole, respectable as this Message
is in several of its features, we judge 1t to be,
as to its main design, failure. 1t does not
vindicate the Governors claim to the leader
ship of tho New-York Democracy. And 1t
makes ridiculous his pretensions as States

score of fitness, to be thought of III connec-
ton with the Presidency.

4 LEVEE or CHARLES T..

The court circles In Madrid have recently
been indulging in a ghesty sort of picnic
The Minister Of State invited tho Diplomafc
Body to accompany bin TO tho Escorial. Tho
court journals give decOrous account Of The
expedition, showing how "they arrived Mt the
"royal seat in vernal temperature, and at once
" directed themselves 10 the palace which they
visited with minutcness. They then passed to
4" the grandiose monastery of st. Lawrence,
(Which they went through, expressing their adj
"miraton of the rigid architecture of tho i'm
"mOrtal Herrera, the tapestries aud other works
"of art contained in this Eighth Wonder of the
World" Here the official account discreetly
goes of into gencralties, vailing the great
event Of the day. We have seen letter from
ono Of the participants in these Castilian high
inks, which enables Us TO supply the hiatus Of
the chrOnicler.
The party WIS introduced TO the corpse Of
Charles V. himself, whose sarcophagus, in the
great crypt under tho chapel. had been opened
for the occasion. There was a scatfold in front
of the niche appropriated TO the great Austrian,
with ascending stairs, and tho heavy coffin
lid was slid back on beams-disclOsng the
mortal shell of Charles Quint The clothes
had moldcred away, and some priestly tnsel
was thrown over the mummy to hide its dry
brown nudity. The chest was hare, massive,
and drum tight, giving hollow sound when
tapped, and still measured 30 inches, after
the waste of centuries. The head WAS thrown
back little, and the forehead bound with
gold cloth. There were no eyes-only a
pair of pastered-up pits. There was no nose
only high bony ridge, looking down into
q brainless hollow. The mouth was merely
distorted threc-cornered hole, and the ncisors
had fallen down tho yawning throat. Bat the
chin was there IA in life, thin and aggressive,
with an unwholesome brown stubble on it yet,
that looked wonderfully like the Titan in tho
Museo. The gay pleesufe-party went up tho

THE CONTROLLERS REPORT

Revond the positiye assurance that the State
Debt has been actually reduced by S2,f0,ovl ~,

couraging by reason of the promises 1t makes
But tho principal one of these, in regard TO
the reduction Of the rate Of taxation,

affairs of tho State aro not conducted IN

wear lust ended. The rate of taxation for
last year & 4i-15G mills) was higher than for
any other Of tho decade, except 1857; but we
are assured that for 1871 il will be only 81
mills. Coming from a party which so mls-
directed State affairs us to render such rate
necessary in o year Of general prosperity, the
promise is not very assuring.
The Report is mainly devoted to defense
of the Canal policy of the Democratic party,
and an argument for further experiment with
the canals as rivals to the railways in the
carrying of freight. The Controller advocates
q further reduction Of tho tolls, claiming that
tho policy heretofore pursued has resulted in
diminishing trade with the West. His
calculations appear to be based only on
the canal returns Of traffic, and he ignores
the fact that what the canals may have lost

LILLE LAND or ELOWERS.

FLoEIpA-by far the largest and most access
sble Of our Atlantic States-the first among
them TO DO settled by Europeans-remains to
this day the most sparsely peOpled. With
coast-line Of over 600 miles on the Atlantic
and over 600 on the Mexican Gulf, with sew
eral good harbors, md considerable inland
navigation, she has hardly more inhabitants
than square miles Yet her natural attractions
are certainly considerable. Her climate is
semi-tropical, yet not excessively hot, being
modified by brcezes from the Ocean and the
Gulf. Her Timber is mote abundant and
accessible than that of any other States while
Game and Fish are nowhere else 60 abundant
Her soil is of unequal value, but much of it is
decidedly fertile. 1t is too soon bymany years to
talk OF draining her rich swamps; but very
much of what seems TO casual view but
white sand is really composed Of minute
marine Shells and produces large crops at o
moderate cost. For the growth of Fruits, she
cannot be surpassed. Oranges Of fine quality
are produced hl great abundance and ut
good profit, though frost sometimes destroys
fruit and tree together. Lemons, LiIaeS
Peaches, Figs, Grapes, Pomegranatcs Olives.
Blackber1iGs, thrive Admiralty.
Horned Cattle, Sheep and Swine thrive and
multiply on tho Wild grasses with little feed
ing and less care. Very largo herds of cattle
have cost their owners little beside the trouble
Of marking tho calves so that they may be
identified. Some growers havo each $4,000
head or thereabout, md are rapidly enriching
themselves by pasturing stock on eYeIybOdy's
land. The Confederate armies were largely
supplied with beef frQIr these magnificent
herds.
Whenever Florida shall be systematically
cultivated, even III part, her cultiyators will
derive great advantage from the carly ma
turing Of their crops. Berries, Fruits, Yege'd-
Jles, will DO sent by daily lines of steamers to
every great seaboard city months before those
of tho North will be ready for market. New
Potatoes in May and fresh Grapes i'll July will
command prices far exceeding those paid
three months afterward.
Many men of many minds.n Some could
not endure a country where skating and
sIcigling are unknown; others dread and shlm
the cutting blasts Of o Northern Winter. For
this class, Florida would seem paradise
Clothing, fnel, and shelter need not cost half
so much there as in New England OF the North
We0t; while plOwing and seeding may go on
from November till June. -Four days honest
work per week viii more fully supply tho
physical wants Of family in that State than
six days on the shores of our Great Lakes.
