 GOV. CLINTON’S MESSAGE.‘

That part oftliis inessagewliicli we‘ omitted
last week is sumniarily contained in the fol-
lowing abstract from the N. Y. Observer.

Crirriinal Code.—-The revision of otir stat-
utes will necessarily bring before you the me_-
rits oforir criirrinal code. _Tliere is one capi-
tal defect which pervades the whole systetii,
and that is the extensive latitude which is gi-
ven to judicial discretion in the dispensation
of punishments. ‘We have sixty three'crim-
inal courts, besides‘ tribiiiials of suiiiniary ju-
risdiction for the trial of petty ofi"epces.—
There are oficourse great disparities in’puu.
islimenté; again the specific statuatory punish-
ments tire sometimes so unequal in their ap
plication to crimes, thatirijustice bordering on
cruelty, may result. All kinds of burglary,
whether merely technical or highly H aggrava-
ted,a_re punished with i’mp‘riso'nmeiit for life
iirtlre state prison. Hence, ofieiices ofa tri-
vial iiatui_e,_tiot ‘exceeding som_eti_rnes petit
}ar'c_e'uy in depravity ordairger, may receive
that tremendous infliction. Manslaughter

‘metimes borderson excusable homicide, &.
at other times assimilates to murder. In Eng
lrind it is puirishable with fnie or transpor-ta-'
tEon—liere the punishment must not_ be less
than three, nor nrore than fourteen years in
the state prison. For a ‘second conviction
for petit larceny, the convict rirust go to the
dtafefprisoii for three years, and the first con-
yictiori may be a sumiriary one without the
Intervention ofajury. I have recently par-
doned a convict of this description alter an
imprisomeiit of more than a year, and well
Lrecommerrded in other, respects, whose first
‘offence consisted in stealiiig a whip lash, and

the second a shilling. The counterfeiting or

Iraudtrleiitly uttering gold or silver coin, is
’§iiiuishable wifh imprisonment for life. The
Same offence in relation to paper money. may

is visited with the same imprisonment for a
period not less than seven years. The pos
(session of-metallic money with intent to pass
ii, may be punished for not more than seven
years, and the possession of paper money with
the like intent, must be-pnrrislied for not less
than 7 years. It will at once be perceived

that among the many evils which proceed

from these disparities and incoiigruities, not
the least aiethe continua! applications, for
pardoirs,aiid sometimes the absolute necessity
ofthe interference of the executive, who must
either remain inexorable to the united voice
ofjristiee and mercy and the recommeiida

tion of courts andjuries, or c_otiirtciiaiice to a

certain extent a departure from a strict system

Ofpenal inflictioiis.

Land Tz'lles.——It sometimes happens from
the‘ lapse of years that the titles of lands are
in some instances endangered by the want of
authority to ptit the deeds on record. Accord
ingto the present law, a deed cannot be re-
corded unless its execution be proved by one
dfthe subscribing witnesses, or be acknowl-
edged by the gran tor. There are deeds how
ever to which the witnesses and graritors are
all dead or resident without the state. In
these cases, their execution cannot be proved
or acknowledged so as to be recorded, and

lcnnseqtreirtly the owners ofthe lands can only
use the deeds as evidence, by proving on trial,
in open court, first, that the subscribing wit"-
nesses reside out ofthe state, or are dead, and
secondly, the hand writing of the witnesses.

To obviate in some degree, these evils, it
might be advisable to provide for _ proving
deeds where the subscribing witnesses and
grantors all reside out ofthe state or are dead,
in like iiranner as the same deeds under lhe
same circumstances would be proved in trials
in open court, andalso for allowing the deeds
so proved to be put on record.

. Pauperism.-—Our code in relation to pan-
perisrii is nearly a transcript ofthe English
system, 81. a worse model could not he found.
Experience has shown that pauperism has iii-
creased in the ratio of its supplies and accom-
modations. The establishmentof county alnrs
houses with appendaiit farms for labour, has
had a riiost mitigating effect, wherever the
experiment has been fairly tried: Besides
the diminution of expeuse.as well as the num-
ber ofthe poor, their comfort will be much
increased.

Claims upon the United States.-—As the
demands of this State against the U States
for advances during the late war, were not
finally adjusted,I requested the comptroller to
repair to the seat ofthe national government,
and to attend in person to this concern. This
‘he has done, as far as was in his power.
promptly and satisfactorily. At a time of
great pressure and public danger, when the
national government was crippled in its
means, and paralysed in its operations, this
state stepped forward and contributed all in
its power to defend the soil and sustaitr the
honor of otir country. It" was therefore to be
expected that the settlement ofour demands
would not be lettered by a fastidious applica-
tion oftechnical formalities, but that the ptrb-
Iic spirit ofthe state would be met by a cor-
respmdent liberality. This anticipation not
having been realised, and there being still
due $100,000, it will remain with you to de-
termine on the expediency of an application
to the national Legislature.

“Few events in our times have created a
stronger and more general sensation than the
coincident deaths, on the_fiftieth anniversary
ofour national existence,oft\io of the immor-
tal baud of patriots and statesmen that corri-
posed the American Congress of 1776-—ihe
one the eloquent writer, an both the able ad-
vocates and intrepid signers ofthe declaration
of independence.

In cherishing those sentiments of respect
and veneration due to distinguished and de
parted merit, let us not be uirinindful Of the
immense debt ofgratitude which we owe to
the surviving wortliies of the revolutiou.——
Their number is constantly diminishing by
the encroachuients of advanced age, and the
decay ofconstifulioiis impaired by liardsltips
ofa military life. The claims of those ex-
cellent men for unrequited services and unsur-
passed suf’ferings,- are now before the councils
ofilie nation: Let gratitude and justice unite
in dispensing the full measure of just retribu
tion,iii imparting corirfort to their declining
yea"s, and letting their eird be peace,

The expressions ofconfidence which I have
uniformly experienced froui the people of
this state, and their renewed application on a

. recent occasion, have impressed me with sen»

timents of gratitude, which no time nor Vicis
siiudes can extinguish. But preferring the

., testimony of conduct to the language of pro-

lfe-si-rn, I shall cheerfully subinii to the de-

- cishm oftime, my profound sense of the dis

tiiigriislied honours conferred on me for my
hrnnble exertions in favourof the prosperity
of our country. Dz Wl'1’T GLlN'I’0N.

NEW-YORK LEGISLATURE.

Saturday, Jan. _6.——In -the Senate Mr.
Colden, from the select committee, consisting
ofthe senators from the first district,made an
interesting report on the snbjectof bank char-
rers, and reported bills renewingthe charters‘
of the Plrtcnix Bank and-Bank ofNew York;
to incorporate the Long Island Canal Corri-
pany--[This report, contains several impor--_
rant suggestions. ltstates, on the authority of
the applicants for the Long Island Canal
Company,tli‘at the bank-of New York and the
Pbeuix bank are willing to subscribe, in con-
sideration of the renewal of the charters of
those institutions, for certain portions of the
stock of that canal. and to loan the whole of
the necessary capital for a- long time, at an
interest ofthree per cent. It expresses an
opinion deciderllyfavourableto this proposi-
tion,and favourable also to the renewal of all
such charters of banks as are worthy of being
continued. It includes also.olvjections to'tlie
iiitiltiplication in the state of the branches of
the United States; and adds the declaration,
iliat if the local charters shall he suffered to
expire, they will be every where supplied by
branches of the national institution.-—Witli

out reference to the objections thus advanced,-

it will be conceded, we believe, that a renewal
ofthe old charters ought not to be 'denrcd.———
The fact ofthe application for the extension
of the charter ofa bank that has been in exist-

bn in good credit, is primafacie evidence that
it o'ught to be exteirded-—'.iiidthat ivilliout any
compulsory bonus. In the present case, the
proffered aid to the Long Island Canal seems
to be voluntary.—./frgus.

In the House, an inquiry was ordered as to

Canal Coinmissioirers, 3:. substituting’ a prin-
cipal engineer or superrntcndant of canals.

A committee was appointed to inquire
wlieiher any aird what rireasiires ought to he
adopted to facilitate the uavigalioi of the
Hudson river. '

Advertiser, is the same as the one before the

der the penalty of $2000: The second iii-
flicts a penalty of $250 on publishers of news-
papers for each time airy such ticket shall be

ofveiidt-rs shall be forfeited, and that they
shall not tlrereafter be entitled to a license.
The sixth directs the executive to remove
from office any manager who shall violate

TUESDAY. JANUARY 16, l

ofl7.

IVAR IN EUROPE.

Advices from Liverpool to the 16th of Dec.
were rec’d at N. York on the 12th inst. Tlit-
inost importatit news is the coiiiiirencciiieiit of
a WAR between Spain and Portugal, and
the sending of troops by Engltmd for the as-
sistatice of the latter. On the lltlr-Doc. the
King oflfliiglaird informed Parliarnerit that he
had received air application froui Portugal,
claiming, by virtue of ancient treaties, his aid
against an aggression from Spain. It ap-
pears that this aggression consists, on the part
of Spain, of barbouriiig rebels from Portugal
against the present goveriiiiieirt, tsz. permittirig
them to depart from the Spanish territories on
air expedition against Portugal. The king of
Spain had given the goveruiiients offiliiglarid
and France repeated assurances of his deter-
iniriation to pieveiit such aggressions,but riot-
wiihstanding these assurances, his majesty
says in his address, he has learnt that hostile
inroads had been concerted in Spain and put
in execution in the eyes of Spanish authori-
ties. He therefore calls upon Parliament to
assist him in maiiitaitiiiig the faith oftreaties
and in securing the safety ofPortugal, the
oldest ally ofGreat Britain. .

On the 122th ult. Mr. Canning informed
Parliament that the first application for aid
was received in Septetiiber, that they finally
became satisfied it was a case for their inter-
ference, and that troops were afrcad_y on their
zouyto Portugal. He went on to state-—

“ We go to defend Portugal, not to wage
war with Spain; to plain a British standard in
defence of Portugal.*** ” It would be unjust
to France not to rire_iitioir that the representa-
iioiis and remonstraiiccs ofthe French Gov-
ernment to the Court ofSpairi had been quite
as urgent, though at the same time, as fruit-
less, as those which had been made by the
British Goverirmcrit. On the first irrupiioii
into Po iugal, the French charge d’ali‘airs had
been directed to signify to his Catliolic Majes-
ty the displeasure which the French Govern-
ment felt at such a proceeding and to want
him that he must not look to France for any
support in it, but tiiust take all the cunseqrieu-
ces of it upon himself. He was bound in
common justice to say, that the French had
exerted tlieniselves to the utmost to prevent
this aggression. * * * An approximation
to the danger ofa war was certainly to be ap-
prelrended, and avoided if possible. _He did
not wish [0 be understood as dreading our be-
ing engaged in a war‘ in a good cause thro’
any distrust of our power or resources; his
apprehensions were quite ofa different nature,
and arose from reflectipg on the tremendous

side the disaffected andzdisconténted of every
nation in Europe. * * *‘ He feared that thr-
iiext war that should be kindled in Europe,
would be a war of mosttrernendous conse-
quences‘. We have no desire to govern or
dictate in Portugal, lint there the stand-rrrl -:-l
England will be planted to afford her defcncr,
and there foreign‘ doiiiiiiiou shall not come.”

The address in answer to the message was
carried almost unaniinously. « -

The troops destined for Portugalare com
manrled by Sir Wtii. Henry Clinton. Tlir
Gloucester, Melville, Wellesley, &L'_Spartiatr-..
74’s, and Windsor Castle, 30, are ordered 1:’-
convey the troops to Lisbon. The Melville
and W'ellesley were ready to sail on the l4tlr.

From Lisbon we learn that the operations
ofthe insurgents have created great excite-
ment in that capital. A large body of .tlie
insurgents, uiider-the Marquis d’Clr:rv__es, had
made a rapid advance upon Bragairza, and
took and plutidered the city, after a severe
c0ntest,iti which 3t)0 men of both pariies,were
killed and wounded. The iiisurgents were
very inveterate against the English residents.
From one English house they took property
totlie amount of £35,000, and insulted the
family. A detachrrrent which had entered
Portugal fionr Baoajoz and sugprised Villa
.V’icusa, had retreated to the Spaiiis'li"side of
the Guadiarra. It was expected that t'lre~Eiig-’,.‘
lish troops would arrive in season to a’rre'st7
the further progress of the iirsurgeiits.

A letter froui London, ofthe 14th ult. re--
ceiveu in New York says, " his generally be-
lieved that France isat the bottom of the ag-
gression upon Portugal,_ notwihstaudiug lier
protestations to the contrary. Judging from
appearance, I should say we are likely to have
a general stir on the Continent, although

he the only sure way to prevent it.

The Liverpool Chronicle says, “The re
port ofthe war has advanced the price of most
articles in our market, and is very popular a-
uroogst all classes at this place.”

The French Chambers were opened on the
lflth ult, by a speech from the King. in which
liesays two codes will be submitted for their
exainiiiation, having for their object to perfect.
legislatioii of forests, arid to fix the rules of
military jurisdiction. A new prtiject for the
organizatiou ofjuries would also be submit-
ted: ’l‘iie penalties against the slave trade,
he remarked, were not efficacious, and he
should submit a more efficient system. The
finances were in a flourishing condition. Re
spectiirg Portugal he only says——“ ’_[‘muhlp,5
have broken out in the Pcrrirrsula; I shall ll-
rrite my efforts to those of itiy allies to put air
end to tbeiri, and to prevent their consequen-
ces.” Oftlre press he says...

" I could have wished that it had been pos-
sible not to direct your attention to the press,
turf in proportion as the power of publisliing

writings is developed, it has produced new
abuses, which called forinore extensive and
more efficacious uieairs of l'l.‘pt‘6sSlL)ll. It was
time to put an end to its scandalous outrages,
and to preserve the liberty of the press llsell
froirrtlie danger of lI.§IU\l'I) excesses. A plan
i‘-»r atianring this Uhjacl‘ will be presented to
:on.”

He concludes with the following paragraph.

“ Let us, gentleuirrir, render thanks in Di-
vine Pruvidenee for n situation so favorable,

and labor in concert to improve and confirni
it, in order. that my people may long enjoy its
frtrizsr. France, iridnstrrous and tranquil, will
at'quii'e new greatness, and her success in
peace will not shut] arouii-.l her less lustre
than would, once iirore, her warlike virtues, it
 sliuuld again oblige her to display

War between Persia and Russz'a.——A letter
from air Eirglisli geiiticmaii ofliigli clirirncter,
well acqiiairitetl with the seat ofthis war, rep-
resents the cause ofthe Persians extremely
prosperous. They had already o.xp,elled the
Russians from many places, and obtained the
coiiiiiiantl ofone or two of their most import-
ant fortresses. and a whole Province. It was
thou-glri that the fate ofPersia was scaled rm-
nioineiit the war was declared, but it now
seems otherwise. The cause ofthe war was
the 'oppressiori of the Russians over those
whom they had conquered, and the rrori-firlfil-
uierrt ofthe most soleirrrr promises, and stipu-
lations. All the Maliometans in that part of
her dominions are represented as in open re-
bellion against her, on account of her bad
faith. The King of Persia is also said to have
been ext reiiiely barbarous in his late acts -
He has ordered the exhibition ofall the Rus-
-sian heads captured in this war, and seized
upon the Russian Minister, and still holds liiur
in C-rpllvlly. These circumstances it is stip-
posed will prevent the interference of Eng-
land in favor ofPersia,as was at first expected

Very Liberal Ofl"er.—We learn that‘Silas

The Morgan Case.—We are informed by
a gentleman who left Cairairdaigiia Saturday,
that the sentence of the court, in the cases of
the persons convicted of removing Morgan is
as follows:—Lotou Lawson, two years con-
llnctiient in the county gaol, Nicholas G.
Clreeseboro, one year, John Seldon two
moriilrs, and Edward sawyer one moiitli.—

Railway from Boston to Con-ii. rt'ver.——The
Governor of Massacliuseits,'iir his message to
the Legislature, mentions that the examina-
tion ofa route for a rail way from Boston to
Connecticut rivers will be speedily laid before
ilierri, and urges that measures be taken to se-
cure a participation in the benefits of an im
proved internal communication. The route
explored leads from Boston to Stockbridge
through Canaan, Chatliam, and Kinderhook,
to Albany.
