It now becomes the Imper Ilive duty of the legislature to make provision As Well for its payment As for the payment of the interest fall ing due on the first of february and at Tust nest. Some Mode of raising the a mount necessary for the payment of this interest less Burthen some to the people is devised the taxes imposed by existing i aws seem to be indispensable. It May be worthy the consideration of the legislature however whether the present defective system of making assessments and reaching the objects it t Izat Zorij does not require if is believed if such revision be judiciously Blade that no increase o t the taxes now authorized wow be Neces sary to produced an adequate amount from the source cover the pressing demands Rivade Tripon the Treasury you will observe by i report accompanying this message that in pursuance Oit he act of Assembly passed for that purpose on on the 27th Day of july , proposals Vodre invited for the Sale of in Public improvements of the Corn tried a utterly failed.

It is worthy too of remark that the expenses for of pairs alone for the nine months has been Only 30. This exhibit cannot fail to inspire us with increased Confidence in the Ultima be usefulness of Dar pub Lic works strengthened As it is by the fact that there has been a t Alling off in inc canal tolls of new York for the fiscal year ending 30th of of s9. It is Propp r Here also in explanation to Utate one fact worthy of consideration. At the Nomnie Cement of my Admi uis traction there was a debt due for Ordi nary repairs previously done inde pendent of the debts due on the Beaver division of for the repairs of the Hunt Ingdon county breach for repairs indispensable to opening and the successful prosecution of the navigation 4 c., As per report of enee neers especially detailed for that service amounting to the sum of which has been hanging like an in Cubus on the whole has Chii Tribulee much to Embarrass its operations and the most laudable those entrusted with the conducting of hum. In the Progress of time too the Grester portion of the perish Ible materials of our Public works became so far decayed and dilapidated As to require in most instances a a r Lial in Many instances an entire re Newal during the first three years of my administration. Large amounts were necessarily expanded in making these repairs so Large indeed that pub Lic Cona Dence was very considerably shaken in the usefulness and value of the system itself. Those who did not reflect on the circumstance to which i have Jutt adverted supposed this extra or Linary outlay for repairs must be annually repealed. But being done the expenses for purpose for a number of years to come will be greatly diminished. While speaking upon this i May cell your alte Ilion to a considerable item of expenditure which May be with Justice hereafter wholly Cut off. A very considerable Stim is annually paid for repairing Anol the Jarjou s Bridges for Public affy convenience across the canals and Raiji ways. This Burden hits been hereto fore sustained by , but Consil Erting ipe great value of the system of education of common schools private property the prov Muou pass a ble porno of Fiu the repairing the Pri vate Budges should be clone by the owner Ruif Public ones by the Tov Enship or coun ties in Are situated.

There has Beer a trial and con Victon of several persons on the Clear est proof of a most flagrant conspiracy to tender this monopolizing Combina Tion still More Triumph int Over the this conviction will Hare ithe Salsury tendency to arrest hereafter any such illegal attempts. It is Noto to be hoped Iha to by the removal of such objects to Way of fan individual Competition our Public improvements vill be Tosh elite and equal enjoyment of All several recommendation or what Weie deemed Essen Al reforms in the management of our internal improve ments made Eit Wierby the executive or canal have been hitherto baffled and Defeated bar a Pembina tons of not easy to comprehend.

In pursuance of the foregoing acts claims amounting in the aggie Gatej to 23 were entered on the books of the auditor general at the close the financial year of which shot 78 was for work done prior and 45 for work done the 4th of May on the first of August the Treasury would not admit fore the first and ouly Twenty per cent was paid on the first of november together with All in Terest then due which amounted dividend and interest to notwithstanding the Sulls which Haye grown out of the Broad and auction Given by the auditor general to the Resolution of the 7th of april there Yei remains a very deserving of creditors who have received none of its benefits nor was it at All practicable to bring them its pro Tho poor la borers scattered along the improve who with their own hands do the work necessary to keep them in naw Gawe condition should be objects the first care of the Jwj this ii Fiance they were entirely overlooked the appropriation Lor re pairs being inadequate.

Some remedy should be at once provided one suggestion i vill make on the subject Ami that in no contingency should the control of the Bank be placed exclusively in the hands of private Stock holders.
