Governor Curtln's Farewell Address.
rHL'farewell address of Governor Andrew O.
: f)urtin opens with a flattering exhibit of the
financial condition of the State. The public
tlebt of the Commonwealth on the 1st day of
December, 1800, was $a"),G22,032'10, being
f decrease of nearly two millions during the
pat year, and of over five millions since 1801.
iThc Governor discusses the Constitutional
ame'bdment at some length, and urges its
ratification by the Legislature. lie says
tbat the proposition that the States lately in
rebellion, and not yet restored to their privi
leges by Congress, have a right to a voice
upon the adoption of this amendment, is a
onstrous" one. The power to make war
in trft suppression of rebellion includes, he
says, S power to dictate the terms of peace
and restoration. He declares the late Rebel
States to without lawful Governments,
and that It Is th9 duty of the general Govern
ment to reconstruct them.
The Commonwealth Is now supporting and
educating nearly three thousand .orphans,
children of deceased soldiers. The Governor
highly commends this noble work, and recom
mends that provision be also made for the
support of destitute maimed soldiers. 1
A change in the present method of select
ing Juries Is recommended, whereby jury
commissioners shall be chosen as inspectors
of election are now chosen.
Special legislation, where general laws
might be passed, is regarded with, disfavor.
The Fublic School system works well, and
la commended to the fostering care of the
Legislature.
The State MilUary Agency at Washington
has prepared during the year past for our
soldiers four thousand six hundred and
ninety claims, and has collected and trans
mitted to them, free of charge, 1311,703.
An increased appropriation for the State
Lunatic Hospital la urged ; also the purc'iase
of grounds for and the erection of a new
arsenal.
The Governor closes by a briet retrospect
of the past six years, during which he has
been the Chief Magistrate of the Common
wealth, and says that to have earned and
maintained the confidence and affection of
the people and their representatives is suffi
cient to satisfy his highest ambition.
Governor Curtin will carry with him from
the Executive chair a degree of popular
respect and affection awarded to but few
Governors. lie has filled the office during a
period of vast responsibility and trial, and
bas done i; well. His administration will
shine conspicuously upon the pages of the
history of theCommonwealth.
Pennsylvania F.auances.
The report of the Hon. William H. Kem
ble, State Treasurer, together with the re
commendations it contains, furnishes evidence
that the finances of the State are in a most
prosperous condition, and that we have a
gentleman to manage them who is eminently
fitted for the post. The facts are most en
couraging. The total indebtedness of the
State reaches $35,617,484, of which $1,887,050
have been paid during the past year. The
total receipts, from all sources, amount to
$5,820,008, ot which $607,571 was repaid by
the general Government, in return for
money advanced by theState during the war
The arguments to be deduced from this
encouraging exhibit of our financial condi
tion need no series of logical syllogisms to
mnko them aDDarent. The State can afford
In the future to have a sinking fund created
of $3,000,000 a year. With this handsome
excess, shall our State allow her overdue
bonds to remain on the market, selling
below par because their time of maturity is
past ? It Is certainly no very great evidence
of the ability of Mr. Kemble's predecessors,
that they should have allowed the old loan
to overrun its time, and not take It up by the
cieati'on of a new one.
'J he honor of a State is as sacred as the
honor of an individual, and any injury to the
credit of either will produce a like result.
Suppose that one ot our merchants should
allow bis notes to be overdue, what will be
the result ? Hia notes will be protested, and
he be a dishonored man. So it should be
with a State. If she fails to fulfil her obliga
tions she dishonors herself, and the tact that
she Is is in a position to escape a protest does
not lessen her shame. Is it not most
clearly our duty to take up the old loan,
and secure iw payment by the immediate
negotiation ol a new one ! Unless we Intend
to be placed, with Mississippi, among the
repudlators, we hope that the timely sug
gestions of Mr. Treasurer Kemble will be at
once acted upon. The repeal of the law
taxing State loans is also a demand of fus
tlje, The purchasers of our bonds labor
under great disadvantage and gross injustice.
In the first plac they paid par value, and the
bonds are to-day at a discount. Again, they
paid gold, or its equivalent, and If they
receive back their Investment to-day they
will only receive paper ; and on these double
injuries to have a tax added which wa not
contemplated when they invested in State
sixes, Is certainly the climax of iniustloe.
It looks tous as though the State was wilfully
breaking faith with httr creditors, and every
day she lets the matured loan remain unpaid
adds to her disgrace. She i3 now fatly alio
i
to meet VI domanJo, and the new Wa would
j
le e(rr!y Bouaht for wer onnortunitv
ITbrded. -s
One word about the Treasurer. Whenever
we secure a thoroughly efficient, honest, and
patriotic officer, we throw the Idea of rotation
in office to the winds, and favor his retention
as long as he can be of service to the State.
Mr. Kemble is such an officer. He has
proved himself competent, honest, and de
voted to our interests. Let him, then, be
retained in the position he so well fills, and
let no change be made so long as he continues
so useful to the Commonwealth. 'Beneath
his eye let the new loan be negotiated, and
the stain ou our honor wiped out.
Which Tuesday t
Senator Poland, of Vermont, with a de
siie to simplify the old system of electiug
Senators, or lather, to give some system to
the mode of election, induced Congress to
pass a law providing that on the
eecond Tuesday after the meeting of
each Legislature, the election shall "he
held, at 12 o'clock M. As our law com.
pels the opening of the session on the first
Tuesday of the present year, the question
has been raised whether the second Tuesday
means the 8th or tbe 15th of the month.
The general imprcssron seems to be that
the second Tuesday after the meeting is the
15th of January, and that the first Tuesday
does not mean the day on which the House
met, because they do not assemble until half
ot the day has passed. On the other hand, It is
contended that the ruling of the Court in
computing from a certain day always counts
the day on which the act was done.
Under- this ruling the election should be
held on Tuesday next. To rid themselves of
the dilemma, a Committee of five was ap
pointed by each House to find out what Sena
tor Poland really meant by his law. The
laudable desire of the Senator to see every
thing made clear seems to have been de
feated, and the question is about as well
settled as whether the nineteenth century
begins on January 1, 1600, or on January 1,
1S01. Whichever way the question is de
cided, it will, however, torm a precedent,
which will settle the discussion in the future.
Justice to otjr Marines. Attention is
beginning to be directed to thtt fact that
while brevets are being Bhowered on the
Army and Navy officers who served with
fidelity during the war, the Marine Corps ia
totally overlooked. This arm ot the service,
as old as the Government itself, has rendered
eminent services throughout every war in
which our land has been engaged, but being
a distinct organization a sort of amphibious
army it needa special legislation to have its
meriU rewarded. We hope that Congress
will, at an early day, do Justice to the brave
members of this arm of the service, which has
never been behind others in the performance
of its duty.
Kansas. The young State of Kansas
makes a good showing both financially and
educationally. Her entire defct is only six
hundred and sixty thousand dollars, while
her assets are sufficient to wipe out the debt,
and leave a surplus in the treamry. Her
Superintendent of Common Schools reports
54,720 children In the State between 9ve and
twenty-one years of age. The valu of
school-houses is $310,000. The school-tax
amounts to $192,000. There are 12 colleges,
academies, aud universities, and 83 private
schools.
Thews is nothing whatever in the recent
decision of the Supreme Court in the Milli-
gan case, which at all sanctions the conser
vative notion that the Southern States never
lost their status in the Union by reason of
the Rebellion. On the contrary, there are
many indications that such is not the opinion
held by the Court.
Judge Magbudeb, the man who thinks
the State of Maryland superior to the United
States of America, has just been arrested on
two indictments found against hlna for vio
lating the laws of the United States, which
he had solemnly sworn to support.
