THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 29, 18G0. THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE. Our renden had before them, in our issue of yesterday, the well considered Message,of His Excellency Governor Omi to the General As sembly of tho State, and have given to it, doubtless, the consideration to which such an utterance in the present interesting condition of affairs is justly entitled. The tone of it is not particularly joyous or exhilarating. His Ex cellency seems fully impressed with the respon sibilities of our present position lind the some what gloomy aspect of our material and politi cal fortunes; but with calmness and courage he looks the conditions fairly in the face, and witta much of judgment and prudence presents to the consideration of the Legislature a graphic statement of affairs, and the measures which in his judgment seem best suited to meet the requisit.ion_of the time. His suggestions in reference to the District Courts wo think aro eminently just, it may be true that they will answer a valuable pur pose in the judicial economy of the State, but it is not certain that they will do ao. They arc the introduction of an anomaly into that sys tem; they break upon the uniformity of com mon law proceedings; and as the State has al ready boen under the necessity of abandoning a similar departure in the old County Court system, it is not certain that wo will not find it proper to do so again. It is at leapt important that there should be no constitutional impedi ment to the changes which our experience may show to be proper and important, and it is wise, therefore, that the Legislature should make provision for a change in the Constitution upon this subject; and that if it should so occur at the expiration of another year that these Courts bave not performed thoir functions, it may then be possible to make the alterations which our better judgment and experience may suggest. With respect to the propriety of making aew assessments for the value of lands and .own and city lots, with a view to more equal taxation, we presume there can be little ques- ? .ion. Nor, if it be conceded that there is a nc .cssity for larger receipts into the treasury, :an it be questioned that the objects of taxa- 1 ion indicated by His Excellency, and the nodes of imposition suggested, arc eminently ] ?roper. It is not certainly apparent, however, .hat larger receipts, or very much larger re- ( :eipts at least, than those resulting from the istablished rates of taxation, are indispensable. [f there be an accruing interest upon the Stato lebt, not met by the present receipts, it is cer tainly a question whether the better interests jf the country would not be consulted by incot ng that excess with further bonds or other ibligations of the State. It is, of course, dc lirable to meet it with funds, and to give to the .redit of the State whatever advantage may .csultfrom the prompt payment of its accruing nterest, but at the present time it is vastly im-' .ortant to spare the people of this State as mich as possible with the burthens of taxation, t Umosl our only hope for a recovery from the < .resent depressed condition of affairs is in the t iccurrcncc of a larger population, and in the _ nauguration and establishment of new enter- i irises of other lines of business. To these j he discouragement of heavy taxation will be .cry great. Already the pressure is severe, c ,dded to our contributions to the State, the t icavy exactions by our town governments, and he Government of the United States. Every orm of property, or of industrial activity, are earched out, and men inclined to locate their ?ntcrpriscs in this State will hesitate to do bo, t f there be tho probability that such pressure >f taxation will bo increased. "Of alternative's, hcrefore, unpleasant aa it may be, it would eem to bo the best to adapt ourselves to our .strieted fortimes; conduct the State upon lim ted appropriations; meet accruing interest as .est we can by other formj.of obligation, and inering to interests inclined to a location here vhatever of inducement there may be in the issurancc that they may live under the taxa ion they will encounter. As with respect to accruing interest, so, ilso, we think it should be with respect to the l principal, and though it would ccrtninly be lcsirablc to have a sinking fund, the time is not propitious now for lhe inauguration of such an ' institution. And inclined to whatever of ccon- ( ?my may be consistent with an honest dis- 1 charge of obligation.?, wo would certainly com- * mend the proposition to scale tho debts of the ' State contracted by the war, in accordance ' with the rule suggested by the Convention in 1 transactions between individuals. 1 Upon tho subject of tho distresses of our ' people, and*thc proposition to supply them with ' provisions, His Excellency, impressed with its ' painful character, hut nlso with the difficulties ' of alleviation, has no distinct measure to pre- ( sent, and all who speak upon the subject must ' labor under a similar embarrassment. Misfor- I tune is the common lot. Calamities have como ' so thick upon us that few have anything but sympathy to offer. And while there can be no question that something should b . done, it is difficult to Ray what can be done that will not occasion injuries as great as arc tho sufferings to be alleviated. His position upon tho Constitutional Amend ment will doubtless moct tho approbation of our readers; and to tho sentiment that if that Amendment be adopted it shall be dono by the .?irr?pressible conflict of numbers," there will bo, we presume, an unanimous response. Wo have dene enough to show our readiness to concur honestly in the formation of a Union, if that bo possible; but if it be the purpose, as it unquestionably is tho purpose, to exercise authority over us, and to indicate, by acts that do not admit of question, the purposo to hold us in subjection, it is certainly more manly and quite as wise, va think, to submit lo euch con il it Lou without voluntary c?'orts to concur in such u consummation. One hopeful view, however, is presented in the more promising condition of our industrial interests. It ia Tory clearly intimated (hat the labor operations of our country, however un fortunate the results, have been more BUCOCse ful than might have been anticipated. And if this be so, mid if there be the possibility of a fair pvosecufion of our material interests, we have the assurance that, under ordinary cir cumstances, we eau make provision fur comfort and Individual well-being; and these secured, willi proper aims and purpose-", und proper dispositions toward each other, wo 111113' attain to a social condition us commendable as that to be found in most other countries, whatever b<* the depths to which our political forlunea mar be reduced. THE WOMEN'S BIOIITS CONVENTION. Our telegraphic dispatches, some days ago, mentioned that the above-named body met at Albany, New York, on the 20th inst. Reside? many olhcr old ladies present, we sec the names of 1'ahkkii Pillsuuhy, Mr. or Mrs. Blackwall (we cannot tell which, from the report before us), and the inevitable PttBOKBICK Douglass. Of course every one of these seer csscs had her say, and every one of 1 hem harp ed on the question of suiTragc. In former meetings of this kind, the clergy were the chief target at which all the sharp lingual missiles were aimed. St. Paul used to be voted an old fogy, and the Fathers all no better than so many ninnies. The Apostles, Oiihikn and St. Jeuome, aro at last permitted to rest in pence, and the politicians are the scupegouts now. Every party come in for its Bharc of abuse. The Rev. Oltmpia Brown denounced as "swindling reformers all who claim to be the friends of progress and yet would deny the right of suffrage to womnn." The Radical leaders, botli in England and America, arc soundly rated for their cry of ''manhood" suf frage. "Wc want universal sufTragc," quoth the politician in petticoats, "without distinc tion of sex or color." The lady orators arc decidedly personal in their remarks, and call names very freely-true to tho instincts of nature, combatting men rather than principles. They passed several dozens of resolutions, Ihe burden of all of which is suffrage or rep resentation. The causo is looking up, they jay ; but it behooves its advocates to work dili gently, to make common cause with the negro, ind not to rest till all shall have the privilege )f the ballot, and man and woman, white and black, all shall go to Congress. Why not? If .olorcd gentlemen can represent the people of Etoxbury in the Legislature, why should color id ladies not go to Congress from any of the rue blue districts in rural Now York ? These lltra she-Radicals aro opposed to any educa .ional test; for, say they, "the untutored negro ?vas loyal to the Union, when the educated ?Vest Pointer proved a traitor." Of course it is all right. Women ought to -otc, and have conventions, caucuses, barbe mos, and whatever else they want. To be ?ure wc are only a recent convert, and as yet lot entirely above an occasional doubt or mis giving. Wc arc almost ashamed to say it, but itill the most ungallant questions will obtrude hcmselves: Who attends to the baby? and vho-?-sews on the shirt buttons? Have hese ladies no "mission" at home ? or is it bc ;ausc they have no home, and other endcariug ics, that wc have these indecent public exhi litioiiB ? That any woman of honest heart and veil regulated mind ever takes part in such irocccdings we do not believe. The grudual icquiesccncc in these pretensions, on the part if many leading men and public journals in he North, is only another sign of the total ubversion of tho old foundations in politics, norals, and religion, and clearly denotes a .radual advance toward an entire disintegration ?f civil society, in the old christian sense of hat term. IBELAND FOB THE IBISII. Mr. Bricht has gone over to Ireland to stir rp the natives of that isle toa sense of their vrongs. We are inclined to think that his cf brts in that direction were scurcely needed. L'he wrongs of Ireland for centuries has been he theme of her poets, statesmen, orators, ?ovclists-indeed of every son and daughter of 3rccn Erin, wheresoover fate may bavo cast heir lot. Rut Mr. BnioiiT has a remedy. He issumes, and not without reason, that one of he great grievances of the common people of ireland is their practicable inability to own and, or, in many enso-?. c?*en to obtain a lease >r other guarantee of possession for a limited ieriod. To remedy this, he proposes to consti ,uto a parliamentary commission, authorized to .aiso ?6,000,000 by loan on tho c?edit of the ?ation, at three and a half per cent, to be em ployed in buying Irish estates from such pro prietors as will sell, at len per cent, above mar ket prices; then rent (hem out to small farmers it a rate say from ten to twenty-five per cent. ?hove what thoy pay at present for the same nnds; said excess to be an annual instalment oward paying for the land. The farmer would !hus become tho owner of the property in a given number of years, on very accommodating terms. This scheme has certainly much to oommend it. Whether cr not it will provo feasible wc -ire not prepared to Bay. But wo fear not. A diupatoh to the Philadelphia Evening Tele graph says that tho Grand Jury in sossion at Balti more haa indicted several Judges of the recent election for violation of tho election law. refusing votors whom thoy considered rebel, ana also for destroying ballots received from snpposod Conserv ativo votors and putting Radical votoa in tho bal lot-box in their places. -.*?-.? The San Francisco Boo says that a now road has boon projected to bo called the San Francisco Central Pacific Railroad Company, with a capital Btook of ei,000,000.
