engendered by the discussion of the
Civil Rights Bill, the Governor
speaks of his efforts in maintaining
the law, and saysi It is a source of
congratulation, that the result of
these efforts was most manifest in
the complete restoration of peace
and quiet in all the disturbed Sec
tfons of the State, after the identifi-
cation and arrest of the law-break-
ers, and, indeed. all over the State,
and increased sense of security from
similar disturbances, restored con-
fidence and added power and eff
cheney to the civil law in the pre-
lection Of society.
STATE. PRISON.
The Governor recommends suita-
bic provision to be made so as to
separate the Juvenile convicts from
those more hardened. Out of 963
conyiets there now in prison SO con-
victs Of the age of Is years and I'M
der, 275 of the age of 20 years and
under, and 3l6 from 10 tor21 years
old exclusive, Notwithstanding a
number have been pardoned simply
on account of their tender years.
Most earnestly is this recommends
ton renewed.
CHARITABLE INSTITUTION.
The Tennessee hospital for the
insane, the blind school, and the deaf
aud dumb school, are believed
to be in a very satisfactory condi-
ton.
From an informal report in adj
vance of the regular report of the
Superintendent of the Hospital for
the Insane, learn that since jan
uary /, 1873, the average number of
patients accommodated, has exceed
ed that of any former biennial term.
and the number in charge to-day is
greater than at the date ofany previ-
Gus report. The Institution is work
ed to its full capacity. and the gen.
eral health of the inmates has been
good.
EDUGAT TON AND PUB. SCHOOLS.
l commend the suggestions of the
Superintendent of Public Instruction |
to your careful consideration. The
maintenance of a we'll devised sys-
tenn of public education by the
State i'll its social. political and |
economical effects upon the society,
and the country at large, has been |
so often and deliberately presented |
to legislative bodies and to the peo-
pie. that it would be deemed OBJ |
trusive further to refer to it. / beg |
only to express that you may, in |
your wisdom. make the system even
more effective than it is.
BUREAU OF AGRICULTURE.
This most valuable adjunct to the
industrial interests of the State,
through it's President. General w.
II. Jackson, filed a report in this
Office, accompanied with the CON-
pilation known as THE Resources
of Tennessee" by J. B. Killibrew,
the very able and efficient Secretary
which is proving to be the most
valuable publication ever made for
the State. This bureau, hitherto so
successful, should be fostered, and
ample means placed at its command
to present the attractions of Tennes-
see to the world in true. but just
terms. Many other States, with far
less to command them to the honest
laborer, or the enterprising capatal-
ist. multiplying population and
wealth, through the fnstrumentalities
we have, singularly enough, over
looked, until the creation of this
bureau. This Inauguration of a good
work should be followed up by CO.
operative instrumentalities, calculat-
ed to utilize and make more practi-
cally efficient the unexpected results
accomplished by the labors
Of this board. What was intended
as a mere experiment by the act of
December II, 1871, which created
the Bureau of Agriculture, has so far
the most sanguine ex-
pections Of those OF MS who favored
it, as. to encourage such enlargement
Of the agencies as will readily sug.
yest themselves to the friends of
agriculture, mining, commerce, inn
all development
Of the industries, and advancement
Of the material prosperity of the
State.
