"With a view to illustrate the influence of our
improvements in the administration of our civil
and criminal justice, I have caused certain inqui-
ries to be addressed to the clerks of counties and
the district attornies; and their answers which
will be laid before you, contain some suggestions
74-.
0V
' ofan interesting character on the subject of our
civil and criminal jurisprudence and demonstrate
the wisdom of the measures that ‘have been a-
dc-pted. It is certain that prosecutions even in
justices courts with enlarged jurisdictions have
greatly diminished, and that the extortions and
oppressions of a few who derived their support
from the tears of misfortune and the calamities of
indigence, have been almost entirely suppressed.
And I think it on this occasion due to justice to
state that the provisions in these cases hare re-
ceived the decided approbation of the most respec-
table members of the legal profession.
In soliciting your attention to the FBCOmm€l1(l*
’ ations heretolore submitted to you with respect
to the amelioration of our I’cnitcntiary System,
as well in its organization as its administration, I }
cannot but express my gratilication at the ar-
rangements for solitary cells, and separate dormi-
tories in the State prison at Auburn. Greztt im-
provements must be elicited by the lights ol'ex-
better adapted to promote the ends of criminal
justice than the saiiguinary code-which formerly.
disgraced our country. In no cotiiitry in the
world are there fewer robberies, arsons, and mur-
der than in this, and our Ol)SCl‘\'2l.ll-')ll has shown,
that while it is impossible to e.xt'npate' crimes, it:
is possible to diminish their number and to initi-
gate their ferocity. In addition to my former
suggestions, permit me to recomniend, as high-
ly important, a moral classification of criminals
with distinctive appellations and accommodations,
according to their grades of guilt. And if the
pardoning power he confined to the bc+t ofthe
proposed divisions, a power fol appeal wilt be made
to the hopes and fears, the enjoyments and priva-
tions of the prisoners, and a continual incentive
to reformation will be in full operation. I
As our present criminal code does not sufficient-
ly provide against the coiiscquenrrs which may
result from carrying secret arms and weapons,
is hereby human life may be endangered, or de-
stroyed in sudden allrays or in premeditated in-
juries, I would suggest this subject to your con-
sideration wizh a full persuasion that it is a deli-
cate one. and that unless it is judiciously l.l&‘,-licd
an essential right of every free citizen may hemi-
p:.ired or invadetl. .

The pestilence which t‘nreatt=ne(l the health of

work of destt notion. was itircstctl under the l..~lcs:.-
ing of Aliiiiglzty God, by theprnrlent and ther-
getic measures of the board of health. A differ‘-
ence of opinion exists and much CO‘i“i‘.l‘Cl\'(:l‘Sy has
taken place with respect to the origin and nature
oi the disc ase. \"v’ith-out any i'el3.-t't:iice to the

serve that all unite in rt.conin-.ei~:ding the utmost
ttttehtion to the purilic:.ticn cl otir cities. For
whether the disease em‘ izttt: lroni abroad or ori-
ginate at home it is uni\‘et‘sally atlmittetl that it is
aggravated and extended by the want of cleanli-
ness. The establishin-.-nt of public baths and
cotnmon sewers will have a most salutary infin-
ence. A populous city like New-York, can nev-
er furnish within its own lintits_.the sources of
pure and wholesome water. Aquedncts convey-
ing water from a distance liaf-‘e been used in all
cities where the public health and the general
comfort have been duly consulted. At dilietent
times the river Bronx and the Saw-mill creek in
the county of \Vestchester have been explored
and examined in reference to the accommodation
of the city of New-York, and there is litttle doubt:
that both if not either of those streams, will be
amply suflicient. _VVhatever measures you may
devise or whatever assistance you can render to
promote the health ofthat important portion of
our population, willl am confident be cheerfully
performed. "-
I present to you my cordial congratulations on
the flourishing condition of ourschools of educa-
tion and seminaiies of learning. From the pri-
mary institutions where instruction is initiated, to
the colleges where it is consummated, the propi-
tious influence of knowledge is obse1'vabl_e. Much
indeed has been done to promote the interests of
education, but in such a case libergtlity will rarely
degenerate into profusion. The stability and du-
