THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE. -The annual message of Governor Geary i written in good ntylo, ami oontains Homo ex cellent suggestions. It affords no display of profound thought, and makes few or no novel reoommoidations; but it Abounds with evi dences that his Excellenoy hits not been an inattentive observer of the progress of events, and that he is willing' to urge upon the atten tion of the Legislature such measures as have commanded general approval. It appears by his statement of the public debt that a reduction of nearly five millions of dollars has been effected during his official tenu; but a total of nearly thirty-three mil lious of dollars still remains unpaid, against which, however, there is an offset of railroad bonds in the sinking fund amounting to six million-three hundred thousand dollars. The outlines of the story of the State finances may be summed in the statement that a large J1. 1 A . L L .1 f 11 1 L! C uuui whs comrucivu J or me couiii ucuoii ui i publio works; that heavy taxes were levied through a series of years to pay the interest on the State loans and to meet other expen ditures; and that the sale of these works has not yet led to a material reduction of the debt. This result is by no means creditable . to the sagacity and integrity of former rulers whose management produced it; but Gover nor Geary is guiltless of all complicity in these blunders, and . the people would be content with the present balance-sheet if they were satisfied that extravagance, folly, and difchonesty would be avoided in future. It has booome the standard policy at Harris burg to abnegate nearly every expensive duty assumed by other commonwealths, and for roally beneficial and important purposes the State organization is as nearly useless as human ingenuity can make it. Nearly all the real burdens of local government, includ ing the bulk of the cost of education, of the ' support of ths poor, of the construction of roads, and the administration of justice, are defrayed by township, borough, county, and city taxes. This is one of the tricks of legisla tion by which opportunities for making boasts even at times when the relation between the sources of State expenditures should ensure a much larger diminution than that whioh is are squandered. The Governor's bold and striking com ments on the management of balances in the State Treasury show that he has no disposi tion to shirk his duty in relation to that sub ject, and his exposure throws upon the Legis lature the sole responsibility of a continuance of the infamous system he has faithfully por trayed. It is time that the retention of large bums in the hands of the Treasurer at periods when State loans are maturing should cease. The Governor demonstrates that, by this policy, the Commonwealth annually loses a considerable sum, and he is not backward in intimating that this loss of the people be comes a source of unlawful gain to their oflioial3. We heartily ioin in his appeal to the Legislature, wilLout distinction of party, "to rise above the murkiness of the past to the true dignity of manhood and ex alted patriotism, and purify the election of , Treasurer as well as that of every other officer within this Commonwealth, and punish every one who tampers with the parity of elec tions, whatever via be his position or preten sions." This is plain talk, but it is sadly needed in the atmosphere of Ilarrisburg, and it is to be hoped that it may evoke an answer ing echo in every legislative breast which is not thoroughly tainted with corruption. The Governor strongly reoommends the establibhment of ft home for disabled soldiers, and an insurance department, as well as a system of inspection of mining operations. Ills remarks on these topics deserve the careful attention of the Legislature, and should lead to prompt and appropriate action. His appeal to the public to discourage ap plications for the pardon of criminals is also well-timed. His own record during the past year, as published, shows that he is now disposed to use great caution in the exercise of this important prerogative, and a diminution in the pressure made upon him may lead to a marked decrease in the number of cases of injurious obstructions to the due course m of justice. The Governor fchould remember, however, that he will be judged, not really by the number of his par dons, but the grade and character of crimi nals in whose behulf he exercises Executive clemency; and we trust he will be especially careful to avoid pardoning dangerous "pro fessionals" in future. Following a custom which is often more honored in the breach than the observance, the message concludes with a review of natioual affairs. A bugle note is blown for Free Cuba, which, in view of recent intelli gence, in out of time ami tune; but the Gov ernor's views on the tariff and the currency fairly reflect the average sentiment of the State. , THE SPANISH MUDDLE. The Spanish race seems to have lost eutirely the faculty of organizing and carrying ou a stable government. Imperialism and repub licanisui have alike fuilod in Mexico and most of the South American States, and now it stems not improbublo that the. revolution in Spaun that promised so much when it siicoess-' fully abolished the despotism of Isabella, will had to nothing better than a chronio state of fcUJU.:''', Vt t a dr'tistu more onerous than the one that was overthrown. It is certainly a remarkable fact that the Spanish nation, that once ocoupiod the foremost position in Europe, and that still ought to be entitled to occupy a high rank, cm not find, among all the scion of royal houses who are usually lying in wait for vacant thrones, a singlo one who is willing to accept the sceptre once wieldod by Mich sovereigns as Ferdinand and Isabella. For months the young Duke of Genoa hai been pressed upon the publio notice as the one available candidate that would reconcile all conflicting interests, and, by consenting to become King of Spain, establish a strong, table, and liberal government. The ministry of which Trim was the leading spirit appoar to have made the Duke's acceptance of the throne a final tost of their .own fitness to mnnnge the affairs of state, and now that a final and positive answer has ome from the King of Italy, declining, in behalf of his nephew, the proposed honor, the ministry have come to the conclusion that the best thing they can do is to resign. There is some mystery in all'this that the public knows nothing about, and it is certainly remarkable that General Prim should give up the powerful position that he held unless he has some ulterior designs in view for his own advancement by other means than an open connection with the regency. If the history of the Government of Spain since the expulsion of Isabella should ever be written, it will probably astonish the world by the low, mean, and disgraceful spirit of in trigue that has governed the actions and policy of the men into whose hands was committed the management of affairs. It is not improbable that much of the difficulties Spain was laboring under wero brought about by the influence of that arch-plotter Napoleon III, and it is more than likely that the refusal of the King of Italy to permit the Duke of Genoa to accept the throne of Spain was brought about by his influence. What the next move in Spain will be no one can tell, but at present she appears not unlikely to become another Mexico, in which case her European neighbors may have to step in and take possession for the sake of preserving order and protecting them selves. 81R0NG POINTS BY STRANG. Mn. Speaker Strang, in the neat little f pcech with which he signalized his induc tion into the position of presiding officer of the House of Representatives at Ilarrisburg, yesterday, mado some strong points which should not be overlooked. It is needless to say that Mr. Speaker Strang was highly sensi ble of the honor which had been thrust upon him. Whatever may bo his weaknesses, in gratitude is not one of them. Appreciative of the honor as he is, he is almost equally impressed with the duties which this honor baddies upon him, and made some very happy remarks about tl6 necessity of such a dis charge of these duties as would give entire satisfaction to the members of the body over whose weighty deliberations he is hencoforth to preside. Then, in ex tremely good taste, he ventured to call the attention of members to certain rules, the observance of which would tend to bring about "harmony" in their deliberations, and, as a direct resultant therefrom, a measure of "usefulness." Both harmony and usefulness are good things in their way, and Strang is to be congratulated upon the fact that he has a lively appreciation of them. An old saying has been perverted and much improved by the perversion so as to read that, when rogues fall out, honest men have an oppor tunity to do some stealing on their own ac count. To prevent honesty from thus falling into disrepute, it is therefore highly essential that harmony should prevail at Ilarrisburg, even if it be at the expense, as is suggested by Strang, of a tinge of "asperity" in legisla tive debates. ' But immediately after this appeal for har mony, Strang made a confession, the reading of which caused us unaffected pain. It showed that, strong as is Strang in all the great essentials of statesmanship, he is a little weak in some of the details. He is, in fchort, ""not aware what, if any, measures of great public importance, are to be considered by" the House. This is really too bad. . That Strang bhould be "not aware" of certain and sundry "measures of great publio import;, ance" upon which we have commented some what at length recency, shows a degree of ignorance which is almost tob excessive to bo blissful. He made the matter worse rather than belter by indulging in some fan tastic speculations about what "measures of great public importance" might possibly come before the House. No one will find fault with Strang for presuming that "it can never hap pen otherwise than that the Legislature of a great State like ours should have important interests committed to its charge." But Strang show ed a lamentable weakness in ima gining for a moment that our "agricultural and mineral rosources," "our internal im provements," and the exploded project for making "our noble Commonwealth the gar den and the workshop of the country, " and all that sort of thing, have any claims upon the attention of the body of one branch of which ho is the ornamental figure-head. From this display of momentary weakness, however, Mr. Speaker Strang rallied at once, and made a bold stroke upon the subject of "the most rigid economy consistent with the end to be attained." Strang is right. Mem bers should practise economy of the most rigid sort. Nothing in the bhapo of a divvy should be allowed to run to waste. The sun shines just now, and the weather is just the thing for hay-making. Next October thi political horizon may possibly be obsoured by clouds of ill portent. This happy conception leads us naturally to the closing passages of String's inaugural, and brings in gracefully and appropriately his warning to the mem bers upon the subject of the source of their present power. "We iuust not forgot,"-says Strang, "that the people are our misters." .Tut.ho! The pe pie aro your masters; and the fop' expect every nwn io do hU dut y and make hay whilo the sun shines. That is tba way not only to "meet the ap proval of good men everywhere," but, as Strang puts it, very strongly, "To extract the venom from ttie fans of those who, m-eUiiff ft iiotorirtv which they con obtain In no other way, revel In indiscriminate attacks on tlia ptiblio men of tho State, mid rmttietit MiemsHvos with the (llflerent political parties only to hawk at and tear them." From nil this, it will be seen that tho selec tion of Strang to preside over the distribu tion of the divvies at Ilarrisburg is a singu larly hnppy one. His high appreciation of personal honor, his deep sonse of personal responsibility, his thorough subjection to rule, his pathetic appeal for harmony, his earnest advocacy of economy, his tender re ference to the mastery of tho people, his laudable desire to secure the approval of the good, and his ' very proper condemnation of those reprehensible persons whose low in stincts prompt them to "hawk at and toar" the publio won of the State; all these strong points in his inaugural address, distracted from only by the trifling weaknesses alludod to above, tend to render the selection of Strang as Speaker of the nouse a singularly happy ono.
