The Inaugural Address

Governor Hendricks yesterday deliver
ed the inaugural message for which the
Democracy of this State have been SO
long laboring and waiting The Consti-
futon requires that the Governor shall,
from time to time, give the General AS
emily information touching the condition
of the State, and recommend such measures
as he shall judge to be expedient. We
have never heard of popular dissatisfac-
ton with Governor BAKERS neglect Of
federal affairs, nor do we believe that the
national interests have suffered any by
his combining himself strictly to matters
of domestic policy But Governor HEN
bricks would seem to think that this
neglect of national politics has gone
about far enough and signalizes his in
duction into Office by some fine spun
commentaries on the United States Con
stitution and the doctrines of State
rights. Probably this extra executive
utterance may be set down to the fact
that the Governor is in training for the
Presidency, and wanted to let his num-
erous constituents outside of the State
know just where he stands on the Ques-
ton of State rights, and Capitalization.
He says cit should attract attention and
excite serious concern, when local trou-
bles and controversies growing out of
matters W holy of state concern are made
the pretext for the interposition of FEEDER
al authority and the menace of National
arms" We are not aware that any such
condition of things exist in Indiana, or
that the General Assembly needed any
prompting on this point, just at present,
any more than they did to be informed
that every question and controversy CON
nected with her policy must be settled
and adjusted according to her pleasure
and by her authority" In fact all this
portion of the message was evidently pre-
pared itr outside consumption and should
have been delivered to the Warmoth Leg
islature now sitting in New Orleans
We heartily commend the Governor
suggestions touching the election law!
and preserving the purity of the ballot
box. Now, that this reform has received
the Endorsement of such high Democratic
authority, we trust that party will unite
with Republicans in passing a stringent
election law and closing some of thu
doors of fraud that have heretofore stoot
so inyitingly open in this State
A large portion ofthe message is devo
ed to the subject of representative re
form as embodied in the system of mi
nority representation, the advantages O
which the Governor sayes are obvious.
The scheme has ueYer been tested in bu
one election in this country, viz: the late
election in Illinois. and it is too soon We
to pronounce it q decided success. While
its friends claim for it all the adv vantage!
enumerated by the Governor, there is al
intelligent sentiment on the other side
1t is a complex system and one which
the Legislature will do we'll 10 examine
very closely and discuss thoroughly De-
fore adopting.
The other suggestions Of the message
are well considered and we'll expressed, but
furnished no special points for comment

Fortunate if the evil goes not deeper II

is not the latest scientific discovery; nor
are lessons in practical life-duties gained

The Dry One.

On certain voyage out, in exquisite
summer weather, we had for cabin passen-
gers ore beautiful young lady and ten more
or less beautiful young gentlemen. Light
winds or dead cams prevailing, the voyage
was slow. They had made half their dis
tance when the ten young gentlemen were
all madly in love with the beautiful young
lady. They had all proposed to her, and
boodshed among the rivals seemed immi-
nent, pending the lady's decision. In this
extremity the beautiful young lady con-
dded in my friend, the captain, who gave
this discreet advice. He said: " If your
affections are disengaged, take that one Of
the young men whom you like the best, and
settle the question" To this, the beautiful
young lady made reply; 81 can't do that,
because like them all equally we'll" My
friend, who was a man Of resource, hit upon
this ingenious expedient. Said he " To-
morrow morning, when launch is announced,
do you plunge boldly overheard, head-fore-
most. | will be alongside in boat to res.
cue you, and take the one Of the ten who
rushes to your rescue, aud then you can
afterwards have him" The beautiful young
lady highly approved, and did accordingly.
But after she plunged in, niue ont of the
ten more or less beautiful young gentlemen
plunged in after her, and the tenth remained
and shed tears, looking over the side of the
vessel They were ali picked up and re-
stored, dripping, to the deck The beau
