$20 AFFAIRS IN THE STATE CAPITAL. SEW YORK LEGISLATURE. Senate. Aunany, March 6, 1855 Mr. Monnos reported # concurrent resolution on the cessation of labor on the canals ou the Sabbath day: Lies over. BILLS INTRODUCED. ‘Mr. Barnagp reported a bill abolishing capital punish- ment. Mr. Warxins reported a bill to allow the Cumberland Coal Company to issue bonds. Mr. CLARK reported complete a bill to abolish the fees of county judges Mr. Hirron 00K, favorably, to prevent frauds by hack drivers and others. Gans vant etary Mr. Wituams, re} made under instru Mr. Busuor to the New favorably, with amendments ns, the Rochester Mills Claim bill. sented a petition for an appropriation ‘ork State Agricultural College. THE NATURALIZATION LAWS. , a Goonwix moved the following concurrent reso- jution :— Resolved, (if the Assembly concur, ) That for the perep- tuity of republican our institutions, and the due observ. ance of law and order, our Senators and representatives in Congress be requested to give their influence for the enactment of such a law as shall extend the time of resi- dence before naturalization to twenty-one years, pro- viding that none but citizens shall exercise the right of suffrage in any State or Territory under the jurisdiction of the United States, Mr, Dicxrvson— 1s that resolution amendable The Presipxnt—The resolution is concurrent, and lies cover one day, When it comes up for consideration, amendments will be in order. Mr. Dickinson—Because I wanted to hi by adding the words “and tuose taking oaths,”’ (Laughter ) Mx. Goopwin moved to make the special order for Thursday next. % Mr. Horxiys was opposed to making a special order of such a matter st this Inte stage of the session, Enough, if not too much time had already been used up by Bun- combe, and he trusted that no more time would be wast- ed in this manner, ‘Mr. Dick1NsoN bad no objections to having this resolu- tion discussed, and its consideration set down for a spe- cified day—he wanted a “wipe’’ at it himself. But the day mentioned by the Senator from the Twenty ninth was too early. The Temperance bill tirst demanded at- tention. He hoped a later day would be fixed. Mr. Crosny, if he could bring himself to believe that the country or her institutions were ia canger, would readily vote for granting the Senator trom the ‘I'wenty- ninth a hearing, notwithstanding the late stage of the session. But as ho fett certain that neither the country nor her institutions would suffer for want of discussion on thie resolution, were it thrown over this session, he felt compelled to vote accordingly. Mr. Goopwin thought the Senate would bear him wit- ness that he had not, at any time, obtruded himself up- on tts generosity, or occupied, as’ yet, any of its valua- ble time, nor did he propose doing so. He held senti- ments, émbodied in this resolution, which he would like to express. This was all he asked, Mr. Brooks thought that to deny the request of the Senator would be equivalent to an affront, and hoped that, if no respect was entertained around the circle for the principles involved in the rerolution, at least proper deference would be shown the Senator whose course had been s0 unobtrusive. Mr. Goopwin believed that every Senator would ac- cord to him purity of motive in proposing the resolu- tion; and he could not allow anything he proposed to be characterized as Buncombe. He held his position as State Senator as proudly as any Senator could; and he would never be found marring its digutty by anything like Buncombe. On this resolution he simply desired to express his views, and the sentiments which he sin- cerely believed were entertained by his constituents, who had rights which it should be his endeavor to have respected here. Buncombe! The term was con- temptibie, and he disdained any connection with it. Buvcombe! His ears bad been stung for successive weeks. while Senators, in their zealous partizanships, filled the very air with what was certainly uttered for effect abroad, and nothing else. He did not desire to in- terfere with the business of the Senate. Others were better acquainted with its routine, and if it would bet- taneieane the Senate, he would be willing to have the jution set down for consideration for the first day atter the recess, Mr. W. Cianxk would certainly vote against the resolu- ‘tion, yet he would not characterize it as Bancombe, ‘The Senator wished to express his opinions on the senti ment embodied in the resolution. He wanted to address thefSenate, and through the Senate, the people, ‘this should not be cha-acterized by the harsh term of Bua- combe. He and other Senators had done the same, and perhaps, would do so on this resolution. He suggested an afternoon session f consideration. After some side talk es to the best time, the 21st inst., at 124 o'clock, wos fixed. THE TENURE OF CHURCH PROPERTY, The Presipunr announced the special order of the day, being the Church Property bill. Mr. BRApyorD then took the chair, and Mr. BRooKs o3- cupied the floor in advocacy of the Dill. ir. Crosny followed in reply, when The Senate adjourned. Assembly, DILLS PASSED, ETC. Aunany, March 6, 1855, The bill to reduce all moneyed transactions to the federal currency was taken up in committee, and amend- ed 60 as to take oifect on the first of August, and not to apply to English sterling currency ¢ Dill was ordered to a third reading.

Mr, (tank moved to add a section that the Regents shall make no appropriations from the other funds to any tastitution which draws money from the Common School Fund Mr. Writs opposed this amendment, because it would interfere with the Union Schools. Mr, CLARK said unless the Academy fund was legit. tmaately limited, it would very soon be entirely frittered away. MMe, Hxapiay deemed this amendment entirely incen- sistent with the bil. Mr. Lovnix also opposed the bill as wrong and incon- gruous; and it was | st.

Tue Puce aGaIn —We understand that Poole is ‘again reported to be dangerously ill, his wounds having “become much inflamed, and his physicians deem him in great danger of losing his life. Turner, who was under the care of Dr. Covel, at the Tombs, has been transferred from that place to the Hospital on Blackwell's Island, it being found that erysipelas inflammation had set ip, and sbould it continue, his arm will certainly have to’ be amputated.

After the reqdisitions were a read a communication was received from the Wardenof Almshouse, stating that he had discharged a gardener, ucder the resolution passed at the last meeting of the Governors, excluding persons who were not citizens from their employment, Upon this quit breeze sprung up, and considerable feeling was manifested by the Board. A motion to reconsider the resolution was made by Governor Dugro, on the ground that they could not pro- perly consider a gardener an officer, besides, a number of the employes in the Lunatic Asylum were females, and not citizens. ‘There appearing to be some doubt as to the legality of a reconsideration, Governor Draper offered the follow- ing resolutio . Resolved, That no person in the employ of this depart. ment shall be removed by any warden or superintendent, or apy other officer, without submitting to the Board of Governors for its action the name and ground of remo- yal; and further, that no special birthplace or birth- right sball be considered 0: und of removal from office, and that all future ments shall be citizens, except female employes In support of his motion, Governor DRAPER strongly opposed any exclusion of foreigners as such, Many of those engaged were good and honest men, and to turn them away because of an accident over which they had no control, he for one felt sorry that this thing was sougbt to bedone. When Lafayette came to this country, he was not asked whether he was naturalized or not; and he and men like him fought for this country, yet we would not allow them or their countrymen to hold a petty office in the gift of the Almshouse Department. The resolution he (Governor Draper) proposed was offered for the avowed purpose of showing that the Board had no affinity with this exclusive party which had just arisen, and was now exciting so much attention. Governor West was pleased to hear the Governor speak as he had. When the fact of the passage of the resolu- tion excluding foreigners was known at the Island, it created the greatest and reveral of the females cams to the city to bi uralized, thinking that they would be compelled to leave their situations. Those who would be removed by this resolution were men who had done their éuty, and it was wrong and trivolous to eject them because of their birth. Governor Duke hoped the resolution would remain on the books, agit was proper that those who were not citizens should be excluded. Much had been said about the hardship of taking people from office who were dependent on it for support; but it would be well to remember that American citizens wanted office, and they should have the preference, Some of the people who were appointed had not been in the country over four montus, and they could be track- ed ail over the island by the marks of tae nails in their brogans. (Laughter.) Our people have been humbug- ged too much by foreigners, Kossuth has sickened our people with his nonsense, and they will be carefal how they believe such adventurers in future, An amendment was proposed by Governor Smith to the resolution so as to ensure the appointment of American citizens hereafter, wit the exception of fe- males, many of whom it was desirable to retain, | Governor Wrst—Why excent females? Governor 1AYLoR—Because they nave no votes. Governor West—I am to understani, then, that the whole thing °s un electioneering trick SEVERAL Voices Certainly. After some turther éarrestness was man ment was voted down, adopted by the follow Ayes—Townsend, In Henry, Dugro. Nays—Duke, Smith, Tieman, and Taylor. Governor Dvke olfered a resolution inquiring into the name, #ge, nativity, citizenship, and salary of every employe ot the Board Gov. Dearer was opposed to this motion. He, for one, did not feel desirous of giving ‘Sam’? this much ceveted information. The gentleman offering 11 was no doubt a Know Nothing. Gov. Duke—No, sir, I never eaid I was, Taman old fashioned Henry Clay whig, aud nothing else The subject was then Jaid on the table. A committee was appointed, consisting of Governors West, Draper, ‘Tieman. Smith and Taylor, to attend the Legislature during their visit to this city. A communication was received from Mr. Eldrege, Warden of the Workhouse, from which we make the fol- lowing extracts :— “T enclose to you a writ of habeas corpus containing the names of thé three model artists, who, as you will see, were discharged by Justice Stuart on the 1st inst , be- cause they were jointly convicted of vagrancy, which cannot be done asa matter of law, justice or fact. 1 also send you the two commitments of Justice Stuart while he Wasa police Justice of this city, in one of which he jointly committed five males, and in the other six males, which would seem to show that his commit- ments or convictions as a meg‘strate are at variance with his decisions aa a judge. 1 could find more of the me kind, but presume these two are suffi- cient for the present purpose One of these three model artists discharged on the Ist instant, re- turned on the 3d fastant on the same commitment for the term of four months. Allow me to ask the ques- tion, if the discharges giveo by the ex-Justices Clarke and Stuart are legal and valid?’ The communication went on to state that the Vaimptown Rangers, who were sept to the Island as vagranta, had their clothes s‘olea, and no trace of them could be found ou the Islan: ‘the following report from a special committee, to whom was referred the settlement of the existing diffi- culties between the Board and the Commissioners of Emigration, was then read by Gov. Draper:— That in the Anpual Report of the Commissioners of Fmigration, adopted at a regular meeting of that Board, (Jan. 31, 1885), the following passage occurs in connec- tion with an exbibit of “the amount of debt at the close of the year 1854, on bond and mortgage.” “The rest (of & sum of $35,000) consists of tke claim of the Governors of the New York Almshouse tor the support of insane perros chargeable to the commuta- tion fund. In the view of the commission, this amount is subject to considerable deductions, anda large olfeet for the support of native children born of immigrant mothers, and taken care of in the nursery department at Ward’s Island, for which they have not deen al make avy arrangement with the New York Almshouse department. ‘The commissioners have proposed and are anxious to adjust these and other diflerencea which have arisen between the two Boards, by an arbitration or amicable suit,’” Some account of the nature and history of these *dif- ferences’? seem to the committee to be called for here; the story is short, plain and trus. in a statement on the aubject of Immigrant Paupers, made to you on the 19th of December last, you were reminded “of the agreement by which this Board con. sente !, very early m its administration, to receive and provide for sll the lunatics whom the Commissioners of Emigration were and are required to support. In con- sideration of that service, those commissioers engaged to pay, and for a time did pay, to the Almshonse Department the sum of $3.9 weex for each and every such patient. On the Ist December, 1849, the charge was reduced to $2 50 in deference to certain represen. tations made to the Ten Governors, by one who is still on that commission, to the efect that the charge of $3 was excessive, and much greater than the cost of sup- porting the foreign lunatic paupers. On these latter terms the engegement still remains, Meantime, how- ever, the debt of the Commissioners to this department, on account of such service has rapidly accumulated, and their payments have quite ceased, though they con: tinue to enjoy, to the fullest extent, every anvantage of the contract. ' You have seen that our estimates for ap propriations have been usunily predicated on these re- quired reimbursements, (Appendix R,) and that ia cen- sequence of the remissness of the Commissioners, accounts have at times visplayed some trifling but tious confusion. On referring to page 16 of the state ment of December 39, (Appendix 2H,) you will find that the sum of $1,428 64, due to this department by the Commissioners of Emigration for December, 1851, was not paid until August 18, 1852, that $1,796 78 due for April, 1852, remained unpaid ‘until July 7, 1853; that $3.4¢8 64, 'in like manner due for May, 1862, was not finally reimoursed to us until October’ 10, 1853; nor was the amount (3,675 21) due for January and February, 1853, all paid before yune 3, 1854, In conse- quence of sneh repeated short.comings on the part of that Board, it mppeared necersary for us to come to other and safer terms with them. Accorcingly on 26th March, 1852, 8 new agreement (App. H) was made between the two Boards, by which the Governors of the Almshouse consented to receive and support at the Lunatic Asylum, Smal)pox Hospital, and Bellevue Hospital, all insane or rick and destitute persons, legaily chargeable to the Commissioners of Emigration, and to bury their dead in Potter’s Field; and, on the other hand, the Commis- sioners formaily stipulated to make payment to this De- partment, on the 15th day of each month, of ali bills Prenented on the Sth, the Governors to accept their due il in the event of an insufficiency of funda in the Ex- chequer of Emigration, and, of course, must legally continue party for whose benefit it was ma all have fairly complied with its xcquirements. The present large in debtecness of the Commissioners to this Department has been incurred under an ‘ndalgent construction of its terms by our Board We next come to the ‘large offaet for the support of native ebildren born of immigrant mothers, (appendix D and L), and taken care of in the nursery department at Ward's Isiand.”? Allusion is here had to the off- tpring of immigrant women, pregnant at the time of their landing, and, in some instances, almost in labor at the moment of entering thatiastitution Although the question of the nativity of ruch incidental products, or, at all events, of their claims as American citizens on American institutions, is a nice aud a much-vexed ques- Gon, andtull of interest at thin , we have hitherto entertained it only with reluctance, and are certainl: pigpared todiscuss it mow. Enough that this “oitset”’ as not been supported by any facts and figures, on, ta which considerable sted, Governor Smith's amerd- and Governor Draper's resolution vote:— That contract is svill in foree, be, until the any dates, amd items, and amounts, and there: fore that we know of no such charges on our charity Morever, the committee would re- spectfully call your attention, in. this connection, to section 10 of the Revised Law, pendix 2 ver been vide for all infants howe mother abled, Such are properly chargeable to as, aod are in all instances cheerfully received. The Governors of the Almshouse have now at ourse, in dilferant parts of thetr jurisdiction, 189 childrea, too tender to be sent to their institations. There are yet other ‘‘olfeets’’ that the Commissioners bave hitherto urged, but about which a wiser silence is observed in their recent report One is in the case of | numerous lupation (Appendix L} proviled Cor by uy at prepared to pro- died, or are dis- our asylum, but manifestly chargeable to the Commis- sioners of igration, who, however, refuse to allow for them, om the ground that they are “not in their books,’’ although the reports of our resident physicians ith indisputably the fact of their arrivat in this country within the specified period of five years, and furnish the required details dates, and ships, and ports, gathered from their friends, ‘or from diligent and repeated examinations of the patients themselves in their lucid intervals. the results of euch careful inquiry are more relial than any imperfect conclusions at whieh the agents of the Commissioners may arrive by the way of an incoherent account, pro- cured from an insane person ina single hearing. Ob- serve, that no buildings have, as yet, been erected or peas by the Com ioners for the reception of their lunatics, and that, cone antes those have in all cases fallen to the charge of this department, More than one hundred such unfortunates are now provided for by our Board, easily for the aumesous faeige vegreats som; sponsibility for the numerous n Vi com- mitted to our institutions as such, because the strict copstruction of their views, or their personal conve- nience, will not define such immigrants to be pauper... Our argumenc is to be found in the history of 7), one of (Apy nds 27.) He the thousands of such vagrants. lands here destitute, or nearly so; perhaps bia poverty is not sufficiently appalling to constitute a claim on the Commissioners. He is without employment or fixed ha- bitation. He contracts, at first, vicious associations, and tben, possibly, an infectious disease. Sbelterless some night, he throws himself on the tender mercies of the police, ard forthwith gets himself committed to Blackwell's Island as a Toman, where we are under obligations to provide for » since the Commissioners of Emigration will not see that he is a foreiga pauper, perhaps of their own making. On the 9th day of De- cember, 1854, there were four hundred of such *! va- grants”’ on Black well land. Although in any litigation which they may have re- course to hereafter, the Governors of the Almshouse will doubtless be found prepared to make good their the amplest indemnity under the protection of the Revised Laws concerning immigrante, (app. 28.,) they cannot be insensible to ungenerous, if not un- grateful animus which has su; ited these ‘+ offsets.’” Your committee do not hesitate to assert that quite one half of all the out-door paupers of New York, this day nour! from the resources of the Almshouse Departmen’ are justly chargeable to the Commissioners ot Emigration; that their obligations include the care of many thousands who are now 2p tioned among the pot ic and private charities of the city,and constitute'the ulk of our floating pau: m; and when we remember that from ahead tax of $2, levied on immigrants, they have derived a fund amounting to $663,000 last year, we can only wonder. As for the integrity which would compel an Soot settlement by wrongfully putting off a just demand, it were kindest to hope that it never did claim for itself those qualities of genuineness and simplicity which set suspicion at defiance. Therefore be it Resolved, That we most cheerfully acceie to the pro- y the Commissioners of be ignore) that the two Boards be settled by 8. DRAPER, WM. 8.

FROM THE PRESIDENT TO THE STATE COUNCIL OF NEW YORK, Broraers—The occasion of the annual meetiag of your honorable body is one of no ordinary interest, involving, as it does on the present occasion, the rovelty of being the first uncer the existing form of representation. It is perhaps well to review, in brief, some of the prominent features in the progress of the Order. On the 11th of May, 1854, a consolidation was effected between two divisions of Americans professing the same principles, but acting under the respective names of Lodges and Councils, the two then numbering about sixty subordinate bodies. This union was hailed with enthusiasm, and formed a nucleus for the perfection of an organization, the destiny of which was to control the politics of the nation, The obvious necessity of such an organization being apparent to the minds of the great mass of the American people, it was deemed only necessary to comyine the divisions to secure the perpetuity of the action, It was the pleasure of the Order, at the time of the consolidation, to elect me to the office of President. In entering upon the duties of that office, I was fully aware of the responsibility which devolved upon me—of the disadvantages I should labor under from the crade and imperfect form of the constitution, any alteration of which was looked upon with jealousy and suspicion, and of the elements of discord and confusion which must naturally be anticipated in an organization based upon principles so broad and general in interast and effect. ‘the whole ra try ot the Order in the State, on the 11th of May, 1854, did not probably exceed five thousand, anc in the United States there was uot more than ten thousand members. My first efforts were directed to the formation of pro- per agencies tor the introduction of the work in the dif- ferent counties in the State, and the subsequent appoint- ment ef proper local deputies. It is unnecessary to en- ter into minute details of the action of each brother ap- inted; suffice it to say, most of the deputies have been. laithful and efficient in the performance of their duti and rencered valuable service in extending the Orde and carrying out the laws of the Grand Council. The present harmonious and prosperous condition of the nine hundred and sixty councils in the State of New York ia the only evidence I deem it necessary to offer of the efforta I have made to perfect the organization, to build up a vational party, to disseminate a national feel- ing, to destroy the influence of sectional sentiment, and to establish, not a balance of power, but a positive, un- controltable a enduring power, both in the State and nation, inthe Order of * * * * # it is to be lamented that we bave had persons in our rai ho have been so recreant to duty, so indifferent to the rucred obligations they have assumed, ao debased in mind, and go reckless of moral characteras to expose the work of the Order, thereby committiug a moral per- jury before God and man. Though # sto be hoped our councils are now rid of those traitors, # behooves each | and every member to be guarded in their intercourse, y cautious in recommending persons for ‘At your last quarterly session it was deemed necessary for your protection to adopt measures for the purifica- tion of your own body, and to recommend a course to subordinate councila which had proved effectual with their representatives. ‘the form prescribed has had, I am happy to say, a salutary eilect throughout a greater portion of the State, though objections have been raised in some councils, and open and determined hostility dis- Such unfavorab'e demonstrations, been chiefly confined to those councils foreign to the legitimate purposes of the organization were allowed Bicatenen evar the eauitite- tion, the Nteral construction of the obligation, and the laws ot the Grand Council In some instances, doubtless, members have declined to conform to the ‘‘test,”” upon honorable and con- | scientious grounds, though generally the objection has emanated from those whose active oppesition to the nominations of the Order contributed largely to the suc- cess of opposing candidates. It is obvious that sips may be presented to you which will receive your fair and impartial consideration. Iwould reccmmend a careful discrimination between parties who have been the victims of misrepresentation on the part of representatives, or others whose official position or experience in the Order attached importance, if not responsibility, to their influence, and those whose unqualified and determined opposition has been appa- reat, Open insubordination should not be encouraged, yet the innocent should be protected against the machina- tions of the guilty. Frequent complaints have been made of the inade- quacy of the constitution to the present powerful posi- tion of the Order; and it has been apparent that the went of a more general snd thorough system of or- ization has contributed in a greater or less degree to jocal diraffections, thereby enhancing the lavor and re- sponsibility of the President in their adjustment. ‘Though the great body of the people’ possess as much intelligence as their represeatatives, yet they require ample law for their government, and look to you for such legislation as will secure harmony, peace aud per- fect subordination in their local organizati Special legislation is frequently unsatisfactory, and Yeade 1 diatautons whish tind to ‘subvert: the purpose for which it isintended. It is therefore desirable that the constitution to be adopted the present seasion should be ample in its provistens to the exigency of the times. The committee appointed at the special session helé in January, will doubtless submit a report which will be satisfactory. ‘The course of members of the present Legislature of the state, belonging to the Order, is a matter worthy of T trust a proper investigation will made, and judicious recommendations sent to the subordinate counc:ls to which they may belong; that each and every one who bas proved treacherous fo the cauas he has piedged himself to sustain, may be deprived of all power to injure the Order in future. ‘The rapid, and I may say unprecedented, growth of the Order, bas naturally exeited alarm among the active political parties of the day, and ambitious leaders have sought our ranks—to distarb our peace and destroy our influence. But tbe action of the past has proved a time- ly warning, and despite the opposition without and the treachery within, we bold to day the political destiny of the State. As a united body we are invincible. May that Providence which created within our sires that pure and holy principle upon which our Order is based. guide and protect u ur eiforts to perpetuate it, that our posterityymay rejoice in the national integri- ty of their fathers, and hand it down from generation to generation, riceless legacy, conceived +‘ not for a day, but for all time.” Fraternally, SyRacusk, Feb. 13, 1865.

In responding to which, Mr. Palmer made the follow. ing beautiful and feeling remarks: — ir—I regret exceedingly that the spirit of eloquence shovld re eta a but I trust any de- fect im words be atoned for by feeling. | have made go preparation to address my kiad friends who have 90 yme, in vaj ain- It is eight in the city of Augusta, now some ears ago, in the of Augusta, within these very there appeared 2 young man just entering upon the threshold of life, stroag in life’s pes—ambitious, whose desire was to become an actor. ‘The first round of applause that ever fell upon his ears— the first theatrical benefit tendered him (and it was & good one) was bestowed upon him here.

While J live, it will he pleasant to gaze upon your beautiful offering, ‘reminding me of many pleasant associations, and acts of kindness and attention I have received at your hands, Touching the drama, sir, (turning to the presenter) based upon your appropriate remarks, I would simply say, it is recorded that one of the twelve labors of Hercules was cleansing the Augean stable; 1 am 1. joiced to say, a Hercules has been found, who contemplates erecting & suitable temple devoted to the crama, where the children of Shakspeare and Sheridan, may find some nook to nestle in.
