The Governor’s Message. 
This important document was received on the 
eve of going to press, but by extra effort we are 
enabled to give it at length in this number of the 
Rural. Its publication of ^ourse prevents us 
from giving the usual variety in this and some 
other departments; yet, as the document is one 
of considerable interest, we consider any apology 
unnecessary. We are confi lent that a great ma¬ 
jority of our readers—every New Yorker certainly 
—will he glad to receive the Message thus early, 
and in a form suitable for preservation. For the 
convenience of hasty readers, — and those who 
may wish to refer to part icular pol l ions, — we 
place appropriate headings indicating the princi¬ 
pal topics discussed. 
The Message is an able, straight-forward, busi¬ 
ness-like document—creditable to the new Execu¬ 
tive of the Empire State. In tone and temper it 
is admirable, and generally sound in sentiment.— 
Such is our impression from a hasty perusal, and 
without reference to political questions. We com¬ 
mend it to the careful perusal of every reader who 
desires to be properly posted in regard to the af¬ 
fairs of our Common wealth.

REMARKS. 
The month of December was exceedingly mild, 
its average mean temperature being nearly two 
and a half degrees above the freezing point.— 
There was but little suow—rain frequently—and 
but little fair weather. The weather of the pres¬ 
ent month down to Tuesd t v has continued of the 
same general character. The weatherwi.se now 
say, that we shall have au open and very mild 
winter. 
Thanks — and an Explanation. —We would fain 
repeat, with interest, the acknowledgment ten¬ 
dered last week to the friends of the Rural, near 
and distant, who are daily manifesting their in¬ 
terest in its success in the most positive manner. 
We anticipated an increased subscription, but 
were not prepared for so copious and liberal a 
benefit as that we are receiving. We bend low 
in grateful acknowledgment 
— The unexpectedly large accession to our sub¬ 
scription list during the past week, has rendered 
it impossible for us to keep up with our orders in 
some instances,—yet we believe all papers have 
been mailed within two days from reception of 
order, and most of them on the same day. For 
the same reason, we have been unable to ac¬ 
knowledge reception of money by letter, as some 
request us to do ; but the receipt of the paper 
will notify our friends that their orders have been 
safely received. Having additional assistance in 
the mailing department, we hope to keep matters 
up to time after this week. 
N. Y. State Acs. Society.— Annual Meeting .— 
The Annual Meeting of the State Society will be 
helil at Albany, on the second Wednesday of Feb¬ 
ruary next, at which time there will be an exhi¬ 
bition of fat cattle, grain, fruit, seeds, dressed 
meats and poultry, for which large premiums are 
offered. The meeting will be one of much inter¬ 
est, and we hope to'see every County Society in 
the State fully represented. 
To Correspondents. — We are under great ob¬ 
ligations to many friends for favors in the way of 
contributions to the different departments of the 
Rural, and beg them not to think us neglectful 
if their articles are not decided upon for some 
weeks yet. We cannot now find time to examine 
more than are needed for each paper as issued. 
Concessional. 
Synopsis of Proceedings. 
Wednesday, Dec. 21). — Senate. —Several resolu¬ 
tions were passed, and petitions presented and re¬ 
ferred. The following are among the bills then 
passed : 
The House bill providing for the construction 
of certain Military Roads in Oregon ; for the re¬ 
lief of Hodges, Landsdale and Johnson, owners 
of tobacco in Maryland destroyed by the British 
during the last war ; to compensate Lieut.-Col. 
Dumont for a horse lost in Mexico ; the joint re¬ 
solution to confer additional powers and dut ies on 
the Solicitor of the Treasury; the House bill to 
extend the provisions of the Act for carrying into 
effect the existing compacts with the States of Al¬ 
abama and Mississippi in relation to the five pe r 
cent fund and school reservations. 
House. — A discussion of rather an interesting 
character occurred in thiswise:—It seems that 
Mr. Smith, of Maine, offered a resolution in rela¬ 
tion to two vessels seized and confiscated l>y the 
Spanish Government, and published in the Globe 
a long speech upon it, attacking the Administra¬ 
tion, not one word of which he had spoken in the 
House. Mr. Stanly brought up the matter in a 
resolution forbidding the regular Reporters to 
publish these silent, unspoken orations for the 
future, which was discussed, and with some slight 
change, passed. 
Thursday, Dec. 30.— Senate. — After the usual 
reports, petitions, <fcc.., the Senate passed several 
hills, but none of general interest, held an Exec¬ 
utive session and then adjourned over to Monday. 
House. —Met, but accomplished nothing except 
an adjournment until Monday. 
Monday, Jan. 3.— Senate. —The Senate refused 
to vote a compensation to Dr. Wells for his dis¬ 
covery of chloroform, and debated the question 
of the interposition of the Government to secure 
religious liberty to American citizens residing in 
foreign countries. Resolutions calling on the 
President for information in regard to Cuba were 
adopted, several private bills passed, and the Sen¬ 
ate adjourned. 
House. —Speeches on the Cuba question occu¬ 
pied the most of the day. The bill for the pay¬ 
ment of Navy and Iuvalid pensions was passed.— 
Adjourned.

Synopsis of Proceedings. 
Tuesday, Jan. 4.— Senate. — The Clerk and other 
officers of last session, were returned without a 
vote. After the usual resolutions the Governor’s 
Message was presented and read by the Clerk.— 
Adjourned. 
Assembly. —After the usual proceedings of or¬ 
ganization, <fcc., the following officers were elected: 
Speaker, Wm. H. Ludlow, of Suffolk ; Clerk, Jxo. 
S. Nafew, of Albany; Sergeant-at-Arms, John F. 
Phelps, of Cattaraugus; Door-Keeper, Geo. W. 
Woolbridge, of Sullivan ; First Assistant do. 
Hugh Clay, of New York ; Second Assistant do. 
S. A. Brown, of Oswego. The Message was re¬ 
ceived and read. Adj. 
Canadian Currency. —The Toronto Examiner 
has a strong article in favor of changing the de¬ 
nominational character of the currency there, and 
of substituting therefor the decimal denomina¬ 
tions used in the United States. It asserts that 
it is pure jealousy on the part of the Home Gov¬ 
ernment that a change so desirable to all concern¬ 
ed has not long since been made. 
Rochester and G. V. Railroad —We learn 
that the line from Rochester to Mt. Morris, is ful¬ 
ly under contract, in all the particulars of grading 
fencing, and the furnishing of ties; and that the 
purchase of the rail has been ordered. 
Twenties on the State bank of Saugerties al¬ 
tered from ones are in circulation. Though not 
very well executed, they are liable to be token 
uuless much care is exercised. 
Wm. Ellsworth, of Mayfield, Cuyahoga coun¬ 
ty, Ohio, says he got pounds of milk from 
one cow, for 21 successive days.
