Tusca oos;. Dec l6, lS45. { The Governors message [see another columnl was then read, and

 Mir. Hubbard said, his duty to his constituents forbid him to let this extraordinary message pass wilhuut notice. The Governor instead oC stating the whole gronnd airly touches the surface only of this question: Why not tell the people the whole facts they true i Y exisil Why not tell them ''lhat the public. inc | STATE, borrowed more money 10 bank upon, than the people needed for in exchanging their produc ions"-''lal, putting SD large an amount in clrcu- l lailon, caused property 10 rIse greatly above iis value, and made the country generally extravagant | and waseiul"-ihat many upright men 'were de- l uded, and could moi pay back what they owed for want of means"-ibat o.hers ''becomng security were also ruined''-thal others again were dIshon- est. and Ind or run away ther property whilst yet aUoler class of borrowers and their securities have been hard at work paying mleres, and such insla l. menls as they wele able 10 pay"-and that ''these constitute tle portion whose debts are termed god 1 dehls"-

 1 Here Mir. Rice arose and called the geni lenian from Lawrence (Nr. Hubbard) 10 order The Spea- ker (nr Norman in the ciair) indicated that Mir. Hubbard was in order.

 Well, SIT, said Mr. Il. to eed,-why did not lhe Governor also tell the people that it the public poc, oflhe State to borrow this money that ''it WAS borrowed lo.iend oW?'' Why did not he tell them thai this same public were much delud. | ed by the belief that they had nnde such great

 

 all taxes, aud aciua, f= the public officers of these mismanaged banks--hai the banks were made io pay the tax upon his large property May iurth- CT, that this public put their hands into these identical banks and look thereIf0m the Governor's salary in lnriner iimesl Wh, aid he not ihis, and bear hs share of this weak and foolish policy of which the Siaie--lhe pubc-as well as citizens, have heen guilty?

 | Why did he go on and stare that this same public took large sums of money o, of the banks school | ar al,, ries of the officers have not been paid back--and | that these Legislative csuses combined, together with bad management on the part 0i the directors, had embarrassed the State so that the State could mol pay back what il had narrowed! Had the gov ernor referred to all these lhings-and made such suggestions and recommendations as the facts would jusfy-appealing to the patriotism instead of in sutng the misforlunes of the bank debtors-Mr Il. would mol have said a word at this tire. | Has the governor, as tho representative of the | people, pursued this generous and manly coursei The very opposite sir--the very reverse. He has in effect told the people that they not 10 blame that the bank managers and bank debtors are wholly in fautthat these have been deriving al the benefit, whilst those who nor borrowers have re- ceived none whatever! And that you now push the bank debtors.

 l take issue, said Mir. H. with the governor, and deny the of his positions and the sound- ness and wisdom of the measures he proposes. Here again Mir. Rice arose, and repai ked, that he felt it his duty to call the gentleman to orderhe is certainly out of order.

 Mr. H.-I unde, stood the speaker to decide tha, was in order.

 The speaker (Mr. Norman in the char) said that Ihe gentleman from Lawrence was in order--having stated in ihe outset of his remarks that he intended 10 move 10 print lne Message-on that motion it was in order 10 reach the merits of ihe contents of tue document.

 Mir. Hubbard proceeded-If It is a crime. in the debtor to borrow from ihe banks more ihan he can pay back, was il mol also crime in the Siaie to borrow than she could pay backf 1.-the State excuse herself because her debtors to the banks cannot pay-may not each of these debtors in turn excuse himself by saying ''his debtors also deceived himl" And may not each be equally bonesll 1T the State say that the debtor was mistaken in
