After consulting with the Board of Public Buildings,
it was deemed advisable by me to have erected a
house for storing of wood. The expense of making
the improvements was thereby increased to a small
amount, which; however, will be more than saved to
the State, in a few years, by securing the wood, large
quantities of which were stolen and carried from the
premises every winter before the house was erected.
Some person should be employed to keep the grounds
and walks in proper order, and I recommend that a
small annual appropriation be made for that purpose,
or that the Board of Public Buildings be authorized
to contract for the same, and draw upon the Treasury
for the amount necessary.
I transmit herewith two sets of resolves from the
State of Maine, and one from the State of New Hamp
shire, upon the subject of slavery and matters con
nected therewith. I have not thought proper to with
hold these resolutions, for it is your province and not
mine to determine what action, if any. should be ta
ken upon them. I think, however, that they ere of
such a character as not to merit any notice by the
Legislature of the State.
Before concluding this my last regular message to
tne lieneral Assembly, 1 avail myseii or ine occasion
to express my grateful sense of the honors heretofore
conferred upon me by the people of the Stste.
If in the discharge of my official duties I have some
times failed to give satisfaction to all, it is but what I
expected when I assumed the responsibilities of office.
Others no doubt have served the State more ably
and usefnlly than 1 have done. I hope, however, that
I may be pardoned for saying that none have more
sincerely had at heart whatever concerned her honor
or welfare, or who have beea more disposed to main
tain the one or promote the other.
I have only to add, that during that portion of
your session for which I shall remain in office, it will
give me pleusure, at all times, to render you such aid
a3 I can in the discharge of your Legislative duties.

TEE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE.
' In our columns we lay before ur readers the
Governor's Message, a plain business like docu
ment, evincing a great deal of concern for the in
terests of the State, and an intimate acquaintance
with its affairs. The finances of the State, which
is first discussed, are not represented to be in a bad
condition, but depressed enough to suggest a rem
edy in opening an avenue for the development of
the national wealth of the State. The examina
tion of Deep River and the Coal Fields by the U.
S. Commissioners, receives due notice in the Mes
sage, associated with the opinion, that it is highly
advantageous for the State to open some way of
communication with the same, which wo trust will
be done by tho Legislature in session by passing
the Coal Fields Rail Road bill by a large majority.
We think the militia paragraph could have lent
some of its spaco to this subject without imparing
the interest of the Message. However, it is all
good, and we recommend it to our readers.
THE LEGISLATURE.
We publish below the proceedings of this bodk
in a condensed farm. The organization of theL.eg
ishit.ure was effected by the election of Ilerirv T.
Clark, Esq., from Edgecombe, as Speaker of the
Senate, and Thos. Settle, Esq., Speaker of the
House. The most harmonious spirit prevails
iinong the members, promising a session free from
nny disturbing fof lings whatever. The Co rolinicn
will have a regular correspondent, who will report
everything of interest transpiring nt the Capitol
We learn from a friend at the Capital, that on
Thursday Mr Rufus II. Page, the present efficient
Secretary of State, was unanimously elected to
that responsible position. This is a rare and a
high compliment to Mr P. and fully sustains Gov.
Bragg against the imputations cast at him in re
gard to Mr Page's temporary appointment. The
House on Thursday passed a resolution io raise a
select committee on the subject of slaves and free
negroes, as a good deal of agitation on this sub
ject is anticipated. The bill to aid the Western
Railroad Company was introduced in the House
and passed its first reading.
An attempt was made to amend the rules of the
House as reported by the Committee on Rules, by
establishing the previous question, upon a call of
two-thirds of the House. This is in a modified
hape, the same rule of order which has been
adopted by the National House of Representatives.
The effect of it, had it been adopted, would be to
cut off debate at any moment when two-thirds of
the House might see proper. It sometimes hap
pens that a great amount of time, and as a conse
quence, a large amount of public money, are
wasted in long winded speeches. This rule was
designed to put a stop to this abuse of the privilege
of speech.
Measures have been taken to light the Capitol
with gas. A bill was introduced into the House
on Thursday to fix the compensation of members
of the General Assembly at a fixed sum for each
regular session and a per diem pay for all extra
sessions. This is similar to the present law of
Congress regulating the- compensation of members
of that body. Gov. Reid and Mr. Clingman have
been in Raleigh since the opening of the session.
Both seem to be in good health and spirits.
Holden & Wilson are elected printers to the
Legislature,
Another friend writes : " The bill for aid to
the Coal Field Road was introduced in both
Houses by Messrs. McKay and Gilmore, and
ordered to be printed. Its friends are sanguine
of success. Caucus for Senators next Mondav
night."
HON. WARREN WINSLOW.
We have no knowledge that Mr Winslow is a
candidate for U. S. Senator, or that he has even
intimated a desire to be such ; but we can answer
for his competency, and most heartily subscribe
to the chief points in the communication in anoth
er column pressing the claims of Mr W. for that
distinguished mark of favor from the Democratic
party.
If the bestowal of these offices had the grave
consideration due to such matters, as suggested by
our correspondent, it would give no little promi
nence to the name and merits of Mr Winslow ;
but as competency is always subordinated in poli
cal economy to expediency, the eminent qualifica
tions of our fellow townsmen is not as important
or influential as intriguing friends.
Mr Winslow has always stood upon his individ
ual merits, relying more upon his sterling charac
ter as a statesman, than the agencies of intrigue or
strategy. It may be owing to this that he is not
more regularly in the line of promotion.
We cheerfully join with our correspondents in
submitting to our Democratic brethren at Kaleigh,
the name of Hon. Warren Winslow, for U. S.
Sanate.
THE USURY LAW.
NO. If-
If a man has an ox, or a barn filled with grain,
and wishes to sell it, the law puts no restriction
upon the price he is to ask. He may speculate
on his necessitous neighbor to his hearts content.
It is only in money transactions that the benignity
of the law interposes to prevent a man from exer
cising his own free will in the transaction of his
own business. It is here alone that the law steps
in to prevent a man from making what it chooses
to consider a bad bargain. Afier all it may be
for him a very good bargain. If he can save his
property from being sacrificed by giving seven or
eight per cent interest for the use of money, why
should the law prevent 1 He ought certainly to
know his own interest better than the law. If Le
does not, he ought to be prevented, not only from
borrowing money at more than six per cent inter
est, but from transacting any other business, ex
cepting through the medium of a legally appoint
ed guardian.
A man may be placed under the necessity of
raising a sum of money within a given time. This
he can do, we will suppose, in two ways only.
First, by selling property at a sacrifice; or second
ly by borrowing money at the market value.
That value may be more than six per cent. lut
the law steps in and prevents him from borrowing
at this rate, and he is compelled o sell his pro
perty at twenty xer cent below its actual value,
when if he had been left to himself, he might have
obtained a loan on time at eight per cent, and
thus have actually saved twelve per cent, on the
amount. A man under such circumstances would
be apt to think that the law had given him a very
expensive and unnecessary protection against
usury.
What would be the consequence of repealing
all restrictions on the rate of interest ? One of
the first results would be that money would no
longer flow out, but would flow into the State to
be loaned. This would give great life and anima
tion to commerce. Our large towns would feel
its effects in an especial manner. The abundance
of money capital is what mainly gives the Virginia
markets an advantage over our own. Let our
merchants be supplied with means of trading and
their own enterprise will effect the rest. Thus
Would be established that unembarrassed influx
and reflux of the circulating medium so necessary
to a healthy condition of trade. Necessitous per
sons would no longer bo compelled to par an ad
ditional percentage to the money lender as insu
rance against the risk encountered by lending at
usurious interest. Every man could then obtain
money at jts market value, and sacrifices of prop
erty to raise money would be less frequent. Many
a solvent borrower is now paying from ten to
twenty per cent, per annum for he use of money,
who could if the usury law were abolished, obtain
all lie might tequire at soren or eight per cent.
THE NEXT CONGRESS.
Although the majority in the next Congress
against the Administration is large, this circum
staace will give no decided advantage to the Black
Republicans. The balance of power will be in the
hands of the know nothing members, who will
hardly join the Black Republicans (Gilmer except
ed) upon any important question. Wisconsin has
given a member to the Democratic delegation
an astounding event to the Republicans. The
Tote of that State, in the recent election, show a
loss of 10.000 votes to the opposition ; likewise, a
change in Ohio of 700 votes, would have given to
the democrats five more members of the next Con
gress. The Times makes the following calcula
tion :

The States not included in this table, are repre
sented in the present Congress by GS Democrats
and 18 opposition men, including " South Ameri
cans." Should they return members of the same
politics to the new Congress, the full House would
stand as follows :
Dem. Opp.
Already elected 47 103

115 121
Showing an opposition majority of six members.
Of the Democrats, ten or twelve are anti-Lecomp-ton.
But on all questions where their anti-Le--comptonism
will show itself, they will be check
mated by the South Americans, who on such ques
tions will vote with the Democrats. It is evident,
however, that there is to be a spirited contest for
the ascendancy and no man can say positively
which way the scale will turn. All will depend
upon the fifteen States yet to elect. As all of
them but California. Connecticut and New Hamp
shire, are Southern, the Democrats are more likely
to gain than to lose in them.
Oregon, which will doubtless be admitted as a
State at the approaching session of Congress, will
add one name to the Democratic column, making
a total of 237 members. The bill to admit her,
passed one Houe at the last session of Congress,
but was not acted on in the other, for want of time.
To the Whig Voters of Massachusetts
The undersigned members of the National
Whig party, beg leave to address to you a few
words at this tiuati. In view of the present
political condition of the country, and of the
changes likely to take place in some of the
prominent issues before the people during the
next Presidential contest, the time has arrived,
in our judgment, for the reorganization of the
Whig party, National and State. This move
ment must begin somewhere, and we know of
no place where it may with more propriety be
gin than in the Commonwealth of Massachu
setts, where whig principles so long flourished,
and where the policy of the whig party so long
prevailed, and produced such good results.
We have therefore taken the first steps to
wards a reorganization of the party within the
State of Massachusetts, by designating a num
ber of gentlemen to act as a Whig State Com
mittee, whose claims to the confidence of the
Whigs no one will dispute. It will be the
duty of this committee to open a correspondence
with Whigs in. otber parts of the country, at !
such times as they may deem expedient, for the
purpose of completing the organization of a
National Whig party ; a duty which will be
the more easily discharged, from tne fact that
the National Whig convention which sat at
Baltimore in 1856, appointed a committee with
reference to such a measure.
This manifesto is a clear outline of a project to
reorganize the old whig party, and add a new ele
ment to the opposition against the democracy in
1SG0. It can mean nothing else, as ' the present
political condition of the country" presents the
plain alternative f espousing the side of the Black
Republicans or uniting with the Democratic parry.
Mr Seward has made up the issues for the nex
Presidential canvass, and the duty of national men
and honest politicians, who do not subscribe to his ,
sentiments, is clearly defined without organizing
any new combination for guerilla service on either
side.
It is a suspicious movement from another cir
cumstance, that it meets with such warm approval
from the Know Nothing press of the South, which
i always ready to second any proposal injurious
to the success of the democratic party, regardless
of any, consequence, however ruinous, to the coun
try at large. Should this Massachusetts circular
obtain the confidence and endorsement of the
prominent whigs in the Union, how enthusiastic
will the American party respond to it. " Us
whigs " it will be, although the wreck of the Whig
party gave them existence.
What practical use can be made out of this
tional whig business " the present political condi
tion of the country " does not fshow. If the Na
tional whigs of the North are patriotic men they
will vote with the Democrats, and the whigs of
the South will have the choice of doing the srme,
or assisting Seward and his Black Republican
followers.
Cumberland Superior Couzt
The Superior Court for this County has been
in session during the week, Judge R. M. Saunders
presiding. The trial of Hinton Faulk, consuming
two days of the week, resulted in his acquittal.
The evidence proved that a most attrocious mur
der was committed, but did not point out the per
petrators. The speech of Solicitor Strange ou
the occasion was truly a splendid effort. We call
ihc attention of our coteinporary. the New York
News to this case as a morsel for the Abolitionists
(but not its patrons.) A man of the largest wealth
in the county in which he lived, and of the highest
respectability, owning nearly two hundred slaves,
is arrested at his own door upon the suspicion of
aiding in the murder of a negro ; offers the largest
bail, is refused, and thrown into the County Jail,
lie is taken out by his friends at night, by forcing
his prison, escapes to Charleston, S. C where he
is arrested and imprisoned until removed to a dun
geon in the place where he was tried, and there
suffering from sickness and disease, he lay for six
long months, with his prison guarded by military
patrol, until his trial. No doubt many of the Nor
thern people are of the belief that the killing of a
negro is something less than a misdemeanor among
the Southern slave owners. The case to which
we have just cited them is not calculated to make
such an impression.

For the North Carolinian.
Messrs. Editors : As our Legislature
has
convened at Raleigh, it is veiy natural for us
,to recollect what it has to do, nd to speculate
upon what it will, and what t ought to do.
One important matter, which bias already been
considerably agitated, readily occurs to mind :
we mean the selection of two United States
Senators.
It is easily seen wherefore ttfe appointment
of these is of the utmost consequence to us,
and the hearts of all good citizens must be
anxious to have the seats, once occupied by
Nathaniel Macon and Robert Strangle, again
ably and worthily hlled.
When we reflect upon the power's vested in
our federative national Senate ; when we re
member that tiere we are represented, in num
bers as strongly as the extensive and densely
populated State of New York, it well becomes
us to scrutinize closely the qualities of onr men
before we send them thither. Say what we
may about the political power of the several
States in our Union theorise as learnedly as
we can upon our unique aHd blessed form of
government the plain truth is, that State
is dominant at Washington is dominant all
over the land which sends to the uational
Senate, men whose hearts, and heads, and
tongues, are better than those of their fellows.
The claims of any man npon us, as citizens,
have at all times and in ail events to defer to
the claims of the country. The patriotism
which stirs within us is as expansive as our
territory ; and we forget the love of self the
love of friends in the greater love which com
prehends a nation. Yet it may occur that the
claims of the individual and of the State are
identical, or, at least, are consistent with each
other : and it happily occurs vow that the
claims of the Hon. Warren Winslow and of
the State as coincident, consistent, and harmo
nious. His personal qualities for Senator are
pre-eminent.
Gov. Winslow is a gentleman of fine educa
tion, of suave and cordial manners, of varied
and extensive information, and of the first or
der of talents as an orator. As a jurist, he
stands at the head of the legal profession, and
jn statesmanship his abilities have frequently
placed him in positions of trust and honor,
where they have been most ably displayed.
In these days of ruffian legislators, agitators,
and political bullies, the merits of Warren
Winslow have commanding prominence. With
the manners of a thorough gentleman, he has
Inial qnalities of heart which so soon
ripen este
into the warmest friendship, and

Mr Busbee states that ' in the endorsement!
for public roads, &c, the States are protected
by mortgages, and until the fiscal year ending
31st October, 1857, had paid nothing on ac
count thereof. 'The Cape Fear and Deep
River Navigation Company ' having failed to
pay the last year's interest, due on the bonds
endorsed, the Public Treasurer had to meet the
same; and it is highly probable that that officer
will have to provide for the payment of the
principal, or at least, the first instalment of
$100,000, due in January 1865. The friends
of this improvement, however, are sanguine
that as soon as the navigation to the Coal
Fields is eveii partially opened, the Company
will be able t6 meet promptly all its liabilities.
The State haw paid nothing on account of the
WirmrnQnfd-WeMoh I'ailroad Company,
and from the punctuality with which the inter
est on the endorsed bonds has been met, and
from the prosperous condition of that Company,
it is believed that they will make ample provis
ions for the payment of the principal as it falls
due."
Orer and above the funded debt of the State,
as abore detailed, the Treasury is also indebted
to the various Banks for sums borrowed at dif
ferent times to meet pressing exigencies, to the
amount of about $300,000. These loans were
negotiated in anticipation of the public revenue,
soon to come in, aud will be paid off at an early
day. This floating debt will absorb one half
of the receipts of the public fund, leaving the
other half (say about $300,000,) to be applied
to the payment of the interest of the State
debt, and the current demands upon the Treas
ury. It seems from the Reports of the Treas
urer and the Comptroller, that if the Treasury
was relieved from this floating debt, by having
its payment provided for, or by having it funded,
the receipts into the public fund would be
amply sufficient to meet the current interest and
charges against it. Of course, other provisions
will have to be made to pay the principal of
the State debt falling due in 1859 and 1860.
The prompt payment of these Bonds as they
fall due, will greatly strengthen public faith, at
home and abroad, in the credit of North Caro
lina; and we are convinced, from the general
tone of public sentiment, that the importance
of meeting these payments promply and cheer
fully, will be fully felt by the next General As
sembly, and will have much weight iu their leg
islation.' i
It is impossible to calculate with any degree
of accuracy, or to make any reliable estimates
of the probable lamount of the prospective debt
of the State, depending as it does upon contin
gencies which n)ay or may not happen for a
considerable period. The public faith is
pledged for. the completion of the Western
North CaroftrS ' railroad, "provided "one-third of
monnt necessary therefor is subscribed and
