STATE FINANCES.
MESSAGE OF GOVERNOR KEMPER


RICHMOND, VA, March 27.--Gov. KEN
per has just sent both Houses of the General
Assembly an elaborate message on the financial
condition of the State.
He reviews the past and present condition
of the finances of the State, and then proceeds
to point out remedy for existing evils.
He desires first to maintain the honor aud
integrity of Virginia, and advises vigorous ac-
ton on the part of the Legislature by the en-
largcment of the subjects of taxation and the
redistribution of the burdens now born, depre
eating any Increase of the rates. He believes
that four per ct. Cd the two-thirds of the debt
can be paid, and advises conference with the
creditors so as to make an agreement With them
to wait for the remaining two per ct. until such
time as the State can pay it.
The message is considered an able document
which will attract attention not only in the
State, but outside.

Disturbance in Bombay.

New YORK, March GA letter from India
says that more excitement prevails in the
streets of Bombay now than there has been
since the meeting of 1857. Some of the lower
class of Arab and African musSulmen made an
attack on the Parseese entering their houses
and committing every kind Of depreciation. In
the attacks many Oh both sides are reported to
have been killed. The city authorities seem
scarcely equal to the emergency, and the troops
10 and around the city are not in sufficient
plumbers to preserve order. The cause Of the
mussulman's hostility to the Parsees is that
one of the latter wrote book on the various
religions in which something was thought TO be
said against the character of Mohammcd.
