Synopsis

Excerpt from Annual Message of the Executive to the General Assembly of Maryland: January Session, 1852

In obedience to the requirements of the Constitution,l shall respectfully suggest some of the legislation, which I believe to be necessary. Before doing so,i take occasion to remark, that, I shall be obliged to draw largely upon your patience. It shall be my endeavor to avoid the discussion of useless matters; and, to express my ws concisely. At the same time,i shall consider it to be my duty to say all, that may suggest itself to my mind as preper to be said, for the full elucidation of my different subjects. My labor is concentrated; your's will be divided; inasmuch as, the customary reference of the Executive message to appropriate Committees, for their intermediate action, takes from its dry detail much of the tediousness', incidental to such communications. You will remember that, you are about to te-organize the Government, under the new Constitution; ard, that, therefore, many subjects must enter into this message, which have not heretofore engaged, and may not hereafter demand the attention of the Legislature.

The entire inapplicability of the-existing election laws has been demonstrated. The multitude of offices, now made elective, pro duce a multitude of candidates. The election, in 1853, will add to the list innumerable Constables, Magistrates and Superors of County Reads. The manner and time of making the returns; the diion of labor between the Judges; and their reasonable compen sation, so as to insure the services of coment men, will form subjects for your early attention. I respectfully ade a complete reion of those laws. I will, here, advert to the too frequent and unnecessary delay, which occurs in the transmission of the returns to the Executive Department, occasioning, in many instances, seri ous inconvenience and embarrassment; and, often affecting other counties, besides those in default.
