GOT.TANtfE'S IS EMI AG EJ FeUoxo- Citizens of thetSenctit and Bouse of Representatives;- Ij con gratulate you on the progress .made toward 'renewing the prosperity of North Carolina, find gladly avail my self of your invitation to contribute such suggestions'; as I may deem best calculated, to aid .Jy our deliberations in behalf of the public gdbd. .1 4m so newly inaugurated into the Executive office, however, ithat I am not pos sessed of the minute information in regard to the various parts of the governmental machinery which would make tmj suggestions of, value; but such ideas as I have, of a general na ture, in regard to the condition and wants of our people, I: shall make known to you frankly. j Among the first things to engage your attention will doubtless be the best methods of adapting your; legis lation to toe recent amendments to the Constitution' apd . of giving ef fect to the expressed will of the peo ple in tnat resara. too much care cannot be exercised in this raatter,as our county government, on tne i aver age,' costs twice as much, as that of the State. Owing to the fact that in several of the counties the non-property holding portion of the voters is in a large maiority, and that bad men have takenj advantage of ,this slate of things, many of themi have been brought to !tbe verse of abso lute ruin, v Their 1 citizens have I been ruled by ignorant and corrupt offi cials; the most enormous taxes have been imposed: whilst shameless: pro fligacy and extravagance have mark ed - all their proceedings. To such an extent has this evil gone that many of the richest and fairest por tions of North Carolina havej been shorn of their wealth, their produc ¬ tions decreased, and their resources dried up in a maqner resembling the desolation of tramplicg armies; In dustry has been checked; idleness and fraud have been encouraged; ; local justice put in contempt, and every interest tending jto prosperity and good government,1 in a measure suf focated. The truthful representa tion of these evils, more than all things else, induced the people of the West to hasten td the relief of their Eastern brethren by the adoption of the Constitutional Amendments. That relief being happily made pos sible, it remains for you to apply ill I shall not venture to recommend any detailed scheme for your adop tion, but will simply suggest 1st. That whatever system of oun ty government you adopt shall be uniform. - -1 : '". 4 : ;.:.;-'" j 2d. That you violate the elective principle in the selection, of county officers as slightly las possible.; " I am attached on principle to the pi: n of making all authorities who levy taxes and execute laws directly responsible to the governed, j In regard toi the judicial branch ray opinion' is, differ ent. It seems to me that all the grie vances complained of niay.'.be reme died, and these essential ; principles preserved. ' "; r-' :-.y'. . In, perhaps, a majority of the" coun ties of the State the government of Commissioners has : worked well and the people are satisfied with its ope rations. I would not recornmehd any change greatly radical, for my Opin ion is that public, sentiment will ra pidly cure the evils complained of without the necessity of any cionrii derable departure from the. principle of elective representation. The plun derers of our counties i had before their eyes the examples of those'; who had robbed both the State and the Federal treasuries,1 and now that we haye checked the one and altogether stopped the ether, we may reasonably hope that . the smaller villains j will gradually give place to better men, and a corrected public, morality j will powerfully assist in restoring cjonfi dence and integrity in every depart ment of the government., .. ,;; 1 ' By the 17th section of article III of the new Constitution, it is made your duty to establish a Departnient of Agriculture, Immigration andjSta tisUcs, and to enact laws -for the pro tection. of sheep .husbaiKlry. This opens a wide field for judicious jand experimental legislation. I look upon the adoption of, that section of j the Constitution as a step in the righ di rection. North Carolina is essential ly and peculiarly an agricultural State, more exclusively so perhjaps, than any on , the ,A tlanCicslope, if j not in the Union; yet has she -done less to eapourage this, her ' greatesi' iatetest, than any other interest of hejr peoble.

'As your honorable body, after its next adjournment, will " not j meet again, unless specially convened,' for t woi yearBj rli recommend the lmme- diate establishment, of -such a board as is contemplated by the Constitu tion, which could at least: make a be ginning in the great work, and could gather up much valuable information :wjijpbt'mfg;be you successors to enlarge an'd'improVe ' upon lydur work!

And if the products of the whites and blacks were kept separate, it might be made of service in stimulating the industry of the blacks and -increasing other wise the value of. their citizenship. In this connection I have the pleasure of sending herewith a memonil em bracing the result of a conference be tween Agricultural Societies,! the PatroBs of Husbandry aud the Trus tees of the University, in regard to the importance of protecting the farmers against Imposition, in the purchase of commercial fertilisers.1 To do this they ask for a small appro priation to aid in the establishment of an "Experiment Station'' at! Cha pel Hill, and the employment' of a practical- chemist With the means already on hand at; the University, I am assured they can accomplish-their object at a very slight cost to the State, .and all practical agrichltul rists agree in pronouncing it a neces sity.
