TIE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE. g.
ITS RECEPTION IN THE TWO HOUSES OF THE LEGIs-
ADMINISTRATIONS OF THE CANAL RING.
lERos THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF THE TRIBUNE
ALBANY. March 19.-The Governors message to-
day was preceded by trepdaton, and followed by
Generalization in the Canal Ring. 1t was received
in both Houses with full assemblage, and
with attention that is seldom accorded
to any message. executive otherwise. The
silence that rested on the legislators was almost
ominous in its sOemnity, and the clerks voices lost
their Official monotony In the fervor inspired by the
Governors vigorous words. Ii was q document
containing so many dangerous truths that the Canal
Ring determined to smother it If they could. In
both Houses motions were made and strenuously
supported to accomplish this end Mr.. Waehners
motion being TO lay on the table and print, and
Senator Lords desire being to refer 1t to the
Canal Committee, which would have taken
good care TO suppress It; but these propo-
sitions were beaten by large maJoutles,
the vote in the Senate standing to IT, and in the
Assembly % to IS. The most interesting incident of
the day beside Speaker rulingsfor
the Ring was the manner of Senator Lords exhibit
ton of himself as spokesman Of the Ring If the
message had named him as implicated In fraud he
could not have been angry and in
judicious. He disparaged the message
as devoid Of discoveries, and yet was
stung by its disclosures into rant and bad temper
The universal conviction is that the Governor has
majority of both parties on his side, t. say nothing
of the moral effect Of his message which is well ex-
pressed IN the remark of state officer to-day that
the Governor had put end TO canal stealing for the
rest of his term The canal contractors who have been
swarming in town OF late. have been holding private
consultations about their prospects under the third
Civil Remedies bill and the decisive vote by which
both Houses agreed to make the message special
order Tor next Wednesday morning did not reassure
them rs to the prevailing sentiment on the SUBJECT
Of canal frauds.
