ces Of the States are satisfactory, the surplus OF

one-third during the year, and he urges the re-
vision of the assessment and taxation laws
The expenditure for canals was 500, SOP in ex-
cess of the canal revenue The attendance in
the public schools has fallen off the past year
10000. The increased deposits in the savings
banks for the year was $13, 612, 817 The reduc-
ton OF tho national guard he claims is in the
interest OF efficiency. He urges the. enforce

The States prisons were for the first time self
sustaining last year. He urges the Importance
Of more stringent excise laws. He refers to the

les is not effectually carried out. and that all
though imprisonment for debt was made illegsl
several years ago. yet many persons are unjust
" incarcerated for debt He refers to the leg
islation of last year which overthrow the polltl-
cal dynasty ia Brooklyn, and says the result al
fords encouragement for further efforts to re-

ture.
