CHARLESTON.
THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 20, 18G?.
TUE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE.
Our readers bad before Hiern, in our issue of
yesterday, the well considered Message of His
Excellency Governor Our. to Mic General As?
sembly of thc State, and have given to if,
doubtless, 'be consideration to which such an
utterance in the present interesting condition of
Affairs is justly entitled, '('lie (one of it is not
particularly joyous or exhilarating. His Ex?
cellency seems fully impressed with thc respon?
sibilities of our prcsont position and the some?
what gloomy aspect of our material and politi?
cal fortunes; but with calmness and courage he
looks Hie conditions fairly in the face, and with
much of judgment and prudence presents to
the consideration of thc Legislature a graphic
statement of affairs, and the measures which
in bis judgment seem best, suited to meet the
requisition'of thc time.
His suggestions in reference to thc District
Courts wc (bink arc eminently just. It may
be true that they will answer a valuable pur?
pose in thc judicial economy of Gio State, but
it is not certain that they will do HO. They arc
tho introduction of au anomaly into that sys?
tem; they break upon the uniformity of com?
mon law proceedings; and as thc State lias al?
ready been under thc necessity of abandoning
a similar departure in thc old County Court
system, it is not certain that we will not find it.
proper to do so again. It is at least important
that there should be no constitutional impedi?
ment to tho changes which our experience may
show to be proper and important, and it is wisc,
therefore, that thc 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
have not performed their functions, it may then
bc possible to make the alterations which our
better judgment and experience may suggest.
With respect to the propriety of making
new assessments 'for the value of lands and
town and city lots, with a view to more equal
taxation, we presume there can bc little ques?
tion. Nor, if it bo conceded that there is a ne?
cessity for larger receipts into the treasury,
can it be questioned that the objects of taxa?
tion indicated by His Excellency, and thc
modes of .imposition suggested, arc eminently
proper. It is not certainly apparent, however,
that larger receipts, or very much larger re?
ceipts at least, than those resulting from thc
established rates of taxation, aro indispensable,
[f there bc an accruing interest upon the State
iebt, not met by thc present receipts, it is cer?
tainly a question whether tho better interests
of the country would not bc consulted by meet?
ing that excess with further bonds or other
obligations of tho State. It is, of course, de?
sirable to meet it with funds, and to give to the
credit of thc State whatever advantage may
-n.cn,If <W-?-C~ V"J-l~*JL?3..-"~o
interest, but at thc present time it is vastly im?
portant to sparc tbs people of this State as
much as possible with the burthens ol' taxation.
Almost our only 'hope for a recovery from the
present depressed condition of affairs is in thc
iccurrenec of a larger population, and in the
inauguration and establishment of new enter?
prises of other lines of business. To these
he discouragement of heavy taxation will be
/ery great. Already thc pressure is severe,
iddcd to our contributions to the State, thc
acavy exactions by our town governments, and
;hc Government of Hie United States. Every
"orm of property, or of industrial activity, are
icarched out, u'nd meit inclined to locate their
mtcrpriscs in this Stale will hesitate to do so,
f there be thc probability that such pressure
)f taxation will be increased. Of alternatives,
hcrefore, unpleasant as it may be, it would
seem to bc thc best to adapt ourselves to our
restricted fortunes; conduct thc State upon lim?
ited appropriations; meet accruing interest as
best we can by other forms of obligation, and
offering to interests inclined lo a location here
whatever of inducement there may bc in the
assurance that(hey may live under the taxa?
tion they will encounter.
As with respect to accruing interest, so,
also, wc think it, should be with respect to thc
principal, and though it would certainly be
desirable to have a sinking fund, the (imo is not
propitious now for (he inauguration of such an
institution. And inclined to whatever ol' econ?
omy may bc consistent with an honest dis?
charge of obligations, we would certainly com?
mend the proposition to scale tho debts of thc
State contracted by tho war, in accordance
with thc rule suggested by thc Convention in
transactions between individuals.
Upon tlie subject of the distresses of our
people, and thc proposition to supply (hem with
provisions, His Excellency, impressed with its
painful character, but. also 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?
tune is thc common lot. Calamities have come
so thick upon us that few have anything but
sympathy io oller. And while there can be no
question that something should bc done, it is
difficult, to say what can bc done that will not
occasion injuries as great as arc thc sufferings
to be alleviated.
His position upon thc Constitutional Amend?
ment will doubtless meet thc approbation of our
readers; and to thc sentiment that if that
Amendment bc adopted it shall be done by thc
"irrepressible conflict of numbers," there will
be, we presume, an unanimous response. We
have done enough to show our readiness to
concur honestly in tho formation of a Union,
if that be possible; but if it be the purpose, as
it unquestionably is the purpose, to exercise
authority over us, and to indicate, by acts that
do not admit of question, the purpose to hold
us in subjection, it is certainly more mauly and
quite as wise, we think, to submit to such con
I dition without voluntary efforts to concur in
such a consummation.
One hopeful view, however, is presented in
the more promising condition of our industrial
interests. It is very clearly intimated that thc
labor operations of our country, however un?
fortunate the results, have been more success?
ful than might have bscn anticipated. And if
this bc so, and if there bc the possibility of a
fair prosecution of our material interests, we
have thc assurance (hat, under ordinary cir?
cumstances, we eau make provision for comfort
and individual well-being; and these secured,
with proper aims and purposes, ?UK! proper
dispositions toward each other, we may attain
fo a social condition as commendable as that to
bc found in most other countries, whatever bo
thc depth? to which our political fortunes may
bc reduced.
THE WOMEN'S RIGHTS CONVENTION.
Our telegraphic dispatches, some days ago,
mentioned that thc above-named body met at.
Albany, New York, on the 20tli inst. Resides
many other old ladies present, wc see the
names of PAH Kim PILLSBURY, Mr. or Mrs.
BLACKWELL (we cannot, tell which, from thc
report, before us), and thc inevitable FRKDERICK
DOUCILASS. Of course every one of these seer
esses had her say, and every one of them harp?
ed on the question of suffrage. In former
! meetings of this kind, thc clergy were thc chief
target at which all (lie sharp lingual missiles
were aimed. St. PAUL used to be voted an old
fogy, and thc Fathers all no better than so
many ninnies. The Apostles, OIIIOK.V and
Sr. J ? it OMI:, aro ?il Inst permitted to rest in
peace, ami thc politicians arc thc scapegoats
now. Every party came in for its share of
abuse.
The Rev. OLYMPIA BROWN denounced as
"swindling reformers all who claim to be the
friends of progress and yet would deny thc
right of suffrage to woman." Tho Radical
leaders, both in England and America, arc
soundly lated for their cry of "manhood" suf?
frage. "We want universal suffrage," 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 the instincts of
nature, combatting men rather than principles.
They passed several dozens of resolutions,
the burden of all of which is suffrage or rep?
resentation. The cause is looking up, they
say ; but it behooves its advocates to work dili?
gently, to make common cause with the negro,
and not to rest till all shall have the privilege
of the ballot, and man and woman, white and
black, all shall go to Congress. Why not ? If
colored gentlemen can represent the people of
Roxbury in the Legislature, why should color?
ed ladies not go to Congress from any of the
true blue districts in rural New York? These
ultra she-Radicals are opposed to any educa?
tional test; for, say they, "the untutored negro
was loyal to thc Union, when the educated
West Pointer proved a traitor."
Of course it is all right. Women ought to
vote, and have conventions, caucuses, barbe?
cues, and whatever else they want. To be !
sure wo are only a recent convert, and as yet
not entirely above an occasional doubt or mis?
giving. ,ve ire almost ashamed to say if, but
themselves: Who attends lo thc baby? and
who-sews on thc shirt buttons ? Have
these ladies no "mission" at home ? or is it be?
cause they have no home, and other endearing
ties, that wc have these indecent public exhi?
bitions? That any woman of honest heart and
well regulated mind ever takes part in such
proceedings we do not believe. The gradual
acquiescence in these pretensions, on thc part
of many leading men and public journals in
the North, is only another sign of thc total
subversion of tiio old foundations in politics,
morals, and religion, and clearly denotes a
gradual advance toward an entire disintegration
of civil society, in the old christian sense of
that term.
IRELAND FOR THE IRISH.
Mr. BRIOUT has gone over to Ireland (o stir
up the natives of that isle toa sense of their
wrongs. Wc are inclined to think that his ef?
forts in that direction were scarcely needed.
Thc wrongs of Ireland for centuries lias been
thc theme of her poets, statesmen, orators,
novelists-indeed of every son and daughter of
Green Erin, wheresoever fate may have cast
their lot. But. Mr. BRIGHT has a remedy. Ile
* i
assumes, and not without reason, that one of j
thc great grievances of t hc cemmon people of j
Ireland is their practicable inability to own
land, or, in many cases, even to obtain a lease
or other guarantee of possession for a limited
period. To remedy this, he pioposes to consti?
tute a parliamentary commission, authorized to
raise ?5,000,000 by loan on thc credit of the
nation, at three and a half pa cent, to be em?
ployed in buying Irish estates from such pro- j
prietors as will sell, at ten per cent, above mar?
ket, prices; then rent them out to small farmers !
at a rate say from ten to twenty-live per cent, j
above what they pay?t present for the same !
lands; said excess lo be an annual instalment j
toward paying for the land. The funner would
thus become the owner of the property ina
given number of years, on very accommod?t ing
terms.
This scheme has certainly much to commend
it. Whether or not it wil.' prove feasible wc
are not prepared lo say. Bit wc fear not.
A dispatch to tho Pliiladdphia Evening Tole
graph says that tho Grand Jury in session at Balti?
more has indictod several Judges of tho recont
election for violation of tho dection law, refusing
votora whom thoy considered rebel, and ateo for
destroying ballots received fran supposod conserv?
ativo votors and untiing Radical Yotos in thc bal?
lot-box in thoir places.
Tho San Francisco Beo Bays that a new road
has beon projectod, to bo called tho San Francisco
Central Pacific Railroad Company, with a capital
stock of $1,500,000. The initial point of the road is
at Washington, on tho opposite aido of tho river
from Sacramento ; and tho terminus is to bo . at
Benicia. Tho distauco is fifty-four and a half
miles.
At the annual meeting of the stockholders of the
Virginia Central Railroad a resolution waa passed
favoring a change in tho charter of thia road so as
to authorize, if necessary, a purchase of thc Cov?
