Chairman ol the commit tec, alluded to

o* the tax payers and conservative* ol

1 am glad to see you, ami I am very i
much obliged to you lor the expression
of your approval ol the m om...
i ' t ?
lucnuiiuuii e.\pr? Mt'ti 1:1 my inaugural
address. The dilUculty, which h as
plain to me as it i> io you, is to curry
out these recommendations. 1 propose
to ilo everything in my jiowcr unlcsf.
other plans fire proposed which will
eiU'el l he rattle object. I certainly <n> i
not intend io quarrel with anybody us I
t?? the means to he used to e;ury out
the ends sought lor, but I intend to
secure the accomplishment ol these
ends. I think 1 can see unmistakable
symptom* on the part ol the General
Assembly to sustain me. I am told
that in the House there was a very
general expression ot the sentiment.
About, the Senate I nave not vet been
informed, but I thir.k ilie sin.e senliiiiiMii
will bo luund to prevail there.
' I hoc the same diflicuity in the way oi
extending the time lor the payment ol
the taxes as the one that you have alluded
to. Mr. Trcnholin ami other
Conservative members ol Llit* Uou*e
have, in a conversation, suggested
that a better plan would be to make a
division 01 the taxes, making one halt
I ayahlc in January and one in April.
1 his, it it could be accomplished, vi ould
a ll'ord relief. 1 also think that iheve|
is gome difficulty m the \v;ij ni due- ,

willing to see it this difficult rur.noi I

us yet to look into any other matters
than those mentioned in my inaugural
but am now seeking lime to do ra>. 1
shall be very glad to carry out tin
plan it upon examination, I can iiod
tnat \\ can be done without cmburiMs

1 may he mistaken in thinking that
i here are difficulties in the way. At
all events, I shall give the mailer my
serious attention. I don't know thai

to provide lor the election of Justices
of the Peace has gone overboard, but
it is to be hoped that that is not tinlast
of so important a measure, and
that while the Legislature is tinkering
with it the number of Trial Justices,
or Justices of the Peace, wi'l be
reduced at least one half.
No one will bold office without
