Reposing entire confidence in the integ rity and intelligence of the representa tives of a great people convened to deli Watc for the general good, I cordially unite with you in a deep sense of the res pnsibilitics devolved and a sincere desire 10 co-operate with you in meriting the rxl opinion of our constituents at large To protect most effectually their inte rests; to tlevate public character; to fos tor industry, temperance ana virtue; to build up institutions of charity, to edu rate those who are to follow us; to stimu late to public spirit and moral' manliness; to systematize and adapt the duties of territorial, county and township officers; todevelop onr Eatural&nd mineral wealth in a word, to direct the supreme pow er to the best good of the governed, and achieve for Nebraska that sterling name and conspicuous place which her natura resources and the spirit of her people de serve and demand, and to effect all this iu the short space of forty days, in an as- p'ltllrof two houses and conflicting inte rests, 'in a manner satisfactory to any of t, is certainly a task requiring conscien trmis and constant application, regardless of considerations of personal or local gra tification or advantage. Ve meet to-day, for the fourth time at the place first chosen for the Territoria Capitol, and in the spacious and imposing fdifice now nearly completed under the ' appropriation cf the General Government and through the public spirit of the city of Omaha. The cost of the structure having far exceeded the estimates, and the deficit having been promptly contri Kited for the general good, there can be no doubt that the justice of an earnes appeal for the re-imbursement of the amount ($50,000) will be recognized by every citizen: nor can -we refrain from the belief that Congress will not be reluc tant to defray the additional requisite ex pense. ' The actual necessities of the Territory roquirt the services of a Surveyor Gen crai, and assurances have been received encouraging the hope that an effort to se cure such an appointment will be success mi. TV memorial for the proper distribu tion of troops along the Emigrant line should also be renewed, in connection with an application for grants of lands for railroads. The propriety of such assis tance from the General Government is umr.jpwionable. - We are on the direct line communication between the great ppns ef the Atlantic and Pacific. The conunrrce of the lakes swells the tide, With the mineral and agricultural wealth fif the north; and if, to-day, the wisdom ul the federation should be called upon to fa the most feasible way and profitable national route, it woidd seem that a deter wiflajjon in favor of this natural line be tween the Depots of the far East and West, along the valley of the Platte, would be coerced by the necessities of trade, with the force of mathematical truth applied to experimental practice. Frivate enterprise caunot be relied up on to undertake so stupendous a project. Under the social and business system of this country there is no monopoly. In dividuals, wjth or without money, credit, or pJsi:ion," may project Railroads and other internal improvements, barter in shares, and at last abandon their schemes to their own advantages and the ruin of others. The fluctuations and uncertain- tics of private speculations will not be se riously entertained, in the action of the General Government upon a matter of such admitted military necessity and na tional importance. Provision for a Rail roavl to the Pacific, along the route above Mentioned should be urgently sought from Congress at its present session, before the most . valuable lands shall have been secured by speculators or settlers. - AVe may congratulate each other,' how ler, on the actual commencement of a woTk of -approximate and preliminary im portance. The arrangements for the completion of the second division of the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph .-from the Missonri river to the Pacific, have been Perfected under the direction of Messrs. Henry O'Rielly, John J. Speed and other mmTnt contractors and practical tele ciphers. While the public pulse has Deen so quickened by the hope of an oce anic .communication between the old and fcpw worlds, comparatively little has been id ia respect to a line of ".more direct benefit to our own country-rto be.tuiltjtiver The statutes are limited, confused without either money or favor from the Government -and requiring cnlysuch protection as the interest of the, country demand for the security of. emigrants. The proprietors only solicit a proper dis tribution of Government troops in. garris sons separated by a reasonable distance and having a certain and daily communi cation by means of detachments. I3y troops thus apportioned the letter mails could be regularly transmitted, travelers protected, railroad projects advanced, the country colonized, and the telegraph line completed in a short space of time,. with out additional expense to the General Go- ernment. The citizens of the West cannot regard with indifference so public pinted an effort, and in which the only encouragement asked is the protection of intercourse which should long since have been conceded, in justice to western in terests. A memorial should also be forwarded, praying for an appropriation for a Military liridge across the Platte river. Every good citizen ardently desires that the rui' less sectional alienation heretofore existing between the two sections of the Territory -should cease forever, and will heartily approve the endeavors of your lonorable body to contribute to such a result. The importance of the . -earliest transmission of these memorials to Con gress should elicit immediate action. ; To the country at large, the pas has been truly an eventful year. A disastrous monetary revulsion delayed for a time by the great supplies of gold from west ern discoveries has befallen us at last prostrating credit destroying confidence ruined individual and associated capi talists disclosing monstruous frauds, and rinsing distress, penury and beggary to the doors of ten of thousands of the in dustrious classes, all over the Union. In the public prints are long lists of failures and of broken and suspended banks. The immense influx of coin has only stimulat ed to an increased manufacture of paper promises. It is estimated that about two thirds of the currency of the country is Debt. The crisis was inevitable, and it remains only to profit by its severe and emphatic warnings. It may be urged that specie is again returning to us lormer channels ana that public trust will soon revive. Yet what amount of coin will repair the inju ry already wrought or ailord a basis of security ajrainst human avarice stimu'ated to extravagant speculations and unscrupu lous excesses, by the facilities afforded by nn insecure Bankinjr system ? I he his lory of "profitable" banking is inevitably the history of alternate depression, over action and ruinous expansion. . May. we not hope that the events of the year will lead to a ireneral reform, and to the res tnctionof paper to the use ot commercial men? Believing as I do that the whole ystem of- Bankincr- is insecure even when based on State Stocks and securi ties where one promise to Dav is based on another both perhaps equally fallaci cious and being especially convinced that the institution of banks in this Territory was impolitic, and that there are imper fections m the charters, I respectfully urge that some adequate means be taken to remedy the evil, and protect our citiz ens in future. Many persons who have realized from such systems advantage to themselves, may have heretofore seen no danger to others But 'he experiment u.Ln o. 10, f ('iu, ioA r,A uouU,iaa0l) tuny iniu, none can be so far deluded hy the tran- sient stimulus and temporary v"igor impar- tedtobusiness transactions by traffic in expanded credit, as to fail to see the ne- ..flccV. of n,i;t;rtnn1 nmtortmn f l,l,nr and of the great agricultural and other producing interests, upon which our true 1 - . prosperity depends. The action of the first few years is apt to fix the character of the future State and, in the important respect of the financial policy to be pursu- ed, no timidity, or. indiflprence, or inter ested motives should he permitted to pre vent or postpone a determined effort. to avert in future calamities such as those from which the country is just emerging The Banks now in existence in the Ter 1 kX IA1 Aval ritory are perhaps as safe as most of such institutions. Prudently manned in their ;fWvr w f0,r, f .Vo nnmmnn.-t-r suffered loss. Yet it is equally true that their profits are to be made hereafter. In the meantime gold and silver, withdrawn from Eastern adventures and depositaries may be expected in sufficient quantities for the ordinary purposes of trade. Al though, therefore, paper money is now so identified with the business habits of com munity that the prospect of its abolish ment, perhaps for a long time to come, seems impracticable, and to many, absurd, yet, within our own jurisdiction, by pn per safeguards and restrictions, we may approximate such a result; and may now provide that the full specie equivalent of all circulated bank rarer shall be at all times within the reach of every citizen. By a monthly or at least quarterly inspec tion of the Banks by sworn and respon sible officers, it can be known that specie means are actually held, fairly propor ... r,or- tu rlm.l.tmn f tol- r o .mniUr ,ir,nm;nni;.-n JL AJii.ll rv J.

Our code of practice is universally Te- years are nearly exhausted, and the tie rr.rrlp.! bvj ibp'bflr as mearr; and defec- mand increasing. At least SjOOO copies br.. jl- and contradictory. In consequence both the bar and public.' ars, unable to deter mine the correct caode. of "procedure-' in cases of frequent occurrence; and the jud ges being lef : without a statutory guide in. their decisions," have too great a latitude of discretion as little desirable to them as annoying to - parties. To" accomplish the desired amendment, one or more practical and experienced Iavryers ahould be appointed, and such reasonable com pensation allowed as will induce them to contribute the necessary time and study. It is impossible for a committee of the Legislature, amid the pressing duties crowding upon them in a brief session, to devote to the work the required ability and attention:1- Ti.ere are needed steady i and faithful comparison of any part of the code with another, and careful examina tion of analogous statutes of other states and of the decisions of the courts. In August, 1S5G, Congress passed an act for the purpose mainly of reducing the expenses of the Territorial courts thrown upon the federal treasury.- Under this law the judges are required to fix the times and places of holding the courts, but are restricted to three points in the Territory, or one in each district. Hence parties, iurors ' and . witnesses are "compel- led to attend from remote parts of: the districts or. the judges must assume the responsibility of delaying proceedings. An effort should be made to amend the act by a provision allowing each county to assume and defray the additinal expense necessary for the public convenience, The necessity of passing an act permitting the paj-mcnt by the counties of the extra expense in case the law of Congress should be amended is obvious and imper- ative. .. ' I The increase and changes of our popu- J lation seem to demana a new arrange- ment of judicial districts. The recent and rapid settlements northward of Da- kotah, extending to Niobrarah, have im- posed an undue proportion of labor on the I ludire of the third district. A modihca- tion of the present division is therefore sucjrested, by attaching one or more counties north to the Capitol District, and uniting the counties south of the Platte, in the allottment to the second district. In the action of nearly all Legislative Assemblies and communications from Executives, the highest importance has been attached to the faithful administra- tion of an efficient Common School : Sys- tern. In a country founded on the abso- lute eauality ot the people, it is vitally necessary that the character of the Dis- trict School should favorably compare with the grade of Select Academies, thus plac- inr the means of thorough education within the reach of all. - ! Oar Territorial Assembly has provided an adequate law, the provisions of which have, been almost 'entirely unheeded.' Many County Superintendents have fail- ed to qualify, as prescribed in. sections 19 and 20, chapter 18, 2d Statutes; and the County Clerks have provided no substitu- tes; nor has the forfeit been collected by the Prosecuting Attorney as provided in section 23. Others have neclected to re- port to the Superintendent of Public In- struction on the 1st of .November, as or- dered in section 32. Thus the law has been rendered virtually a dead letter. In many, if not all the counties, no districts have been formed: no taxes levied: no teachers employed and no steps taken 111 respect to School Laws. The Act of . , , , . congress ot. l:), proviaing ior uie sei- ection of other actions in lieu of the 16th and 32nd, when occupied and improved prior to the surveys, has temporarily abridged the land tund, but it is tne cuty of the County Superintendent (Chap. 18, ,) to examine, anot m parcels, anu 1 1 a. 1 a. a. iL... a vaiuu me ml-uoib nui ums uiwu, others after they shall have been selected I respectfully call the attention to this and e otner requirements oi uie aw,M umip rulB w u, s , , ei.I5llIlg IUSUUI LfS lllay UC IlliUlC Bioiiauic and the system put in force by the 1st Monday of May JS53 the proximate time for the regular meeting in each School District. For information as to the state of the , 1 reasury, reierence is maae to uie rpot of the Treasurer herewith annexed The revenue law now in force is inapplicable inoperative, and requires a thorough and careful revision. hile the military spirit of our titizens is believed to be unabatted, drill and dis cipline have been greatly neglected.

Our agriculture may he developed by aiding the formation" of industrial societies in every county. Premuuns ( though small at first) offered by indivi duals or associations for the largest useful crop, the best improved stock, &c, would invite competition and form a nucleus for wealthy combinations. Nor can it be be lieved that the encouragement given by a small appropriation to each county from the territorial revenue, for the purpose of a increasing the most fruitful of all sources of profit, would fail to meet the sanction of of ihe people. The number of copies of the laws here- I totore ordered to be printed has been in sufficient.

A large and valuable tract has been se cured from the Pawnees, through" the treaty framed by Commissioner J. ,W. Denver. The chiefs of the Punca tribe have recently repaired to the Federal Capital with Indian Agent J. U.

The United States wagon road from the Platte river via the Omaha reserve to the Running Water (L'eauquicoart), under the direction of' Col. Geo. Sites, has been constructed for the distance of 103 miles, including 39 bridges. The rich bottom and bench lands of the Missouri and the numerous valleys, of the small tributaries along this route are fast filling up with senlers who have already realized promising returns from their la bors. Our obligations are iustlv due to the Hon. Jacob Thompson, Secretary of the Interior for the : expenditure . of this appropriation in a manner so productive of public benefit. ' t .

Our invigorating climate, pro ductive soil and natural advantages will attract multitudes of emigrants driven to our shores by the political troubles of the Old V orld. Politically, we have equal reason 10 rejoice. Uur tuture increase will give to us the control, to great extent. of the country's political destiny; and it is gratifying to believe that that power will be used with a patriotic and unfalter injr determination to defend the Federal Constitution, and preserve the Union of the States.
