TIE FINANCIAL QUESTION.

GOV. DIX's yIEWs-THE LEGISLATURE ACCEPTS THEM
CORDIALLY.
IRON THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF THE TRIBUNE'l
ALBANY. April THE prominent feature In legis-
lative proceedings to-day was Gov. Dixs Message
on the financial question, which was sent slmuita-
neously to both Houses. In the Assembly, Smith
Weed Dem) offered resolutions approving tine SEN
timents of the Governor and calling upon Senators
and Representatives in Cons from this State to
use their influence to shape legislation in accordance
herewith. On motion the resolutions and the Mes
sage were referred to the Ways and Means Commit
tee without debate and on motion of Mr.. Weed the
Committee was instructed to report tomorrow
morning.
In the Senate the message gave rise TO little po-
litical skirmishing between Democrats and Repub-
LEANS who seemed anxious to vie with each other
in eulogizing the Governor and claiming his views
as those Of their own party Mr.. Ganson tDem.l
opened the discussion by saying that he fully agreed
with the sentiments of the message. as he had no
doubt every Senator in the circle did. They en'In"
ciated the true Democratic doctrine on the subject
of the currency, and he asked for the immediate
adoption of resolution which he offered, approving
the message and calling upon New-York Congress
men to aid In carrying out its views.
Mr. Woodin was glad to see that the Democrats in
the Senate were 80 pleased with Republican Gov
ernor, and he hoped they would continue their ad-
hesion to him until next Fall, when the Republicans,
should renominate him. as they certainly would, and
reflect him. He had objection to the Democratstry-
ing to make what political capital they could on
this any other subject but he could see no need OF
immediate action on the message, and thought 1t
would be dignifed to treat an important ques-
ton like this with delberation. He therefore moved
that the message be referred to the Finance Com
mittee, to report tonight OF tomorrow morning.
Senators Jacobs, Parmenter, Bradley and Lord,
all Democrats. spoke in favor of immediate action
while Senators Wood, King, Dow, and Madden
favored Woodins motion for reference AL how
ever. expressed themselves in favor of the views
contained in the message. The motion to refer was
finally carried By party vote
