Gov. Moses First Message.


To-day We publish, almost entire, the
first Annual Message Of Gov. Moses.
It is enormously long, and. upon the
whole, exceedingly interesting. In fact,
1t is very good Message-good rs re-
gnrds Its information, good as reg ards 1t
recomm, ndations, and better than might
he expected as regards Its spirit. In the
preparation of this document the Cover
nor has eyinced, VIC are bound to say,
most decided industry ana determine
ton. He is man CT gay and festive
temperament, but nevertheless he must
have studied hard-or some one else for
him-to acquire, compile and repro
duce the vast amount Of valuable and
appropriate information contained lin this
Message. Az to Mr.. Noses touches hero
and there of Republican rhapsody; and
his paintings, and gushings, and explo-
sions, after universal freedom and BROTH
erhood; and his pious fluctuations upon
the fact of there being not single slave
within the borders of the United States !;
all this is no more than might have been
expected from him. For has not his
taking-up with all this sort of thing, Civ
en- him magnificent place and nagnifi-
cent pelf! AS for the emancipation OF
the negroes, most ot US will not jump
up to the heavens with joy. over the fnct

But read the Message. Every ono who
reads it attentivcly will be instructed
and enlightened.
