TEE fitst act passed by the Rouse
of Representatives at Harrisburg this
session was one raking the salary of
the Governor from $5,000 t 4; $9,0 00
der year. ThiadoOs not indicate the
economy we were promised before
the October election, but shows pret
ty plainly that the new Governor
(Hartranft) means to live in styla
while filling the Gubernatorial
chair.
TUE .ea -emperor, Napoleon 111.,

Thursday, in the 65th year of hisage.
His death was sudden and unexpect

EDWARD S. STOKES, the man who
shot and killed James Fisk, jr., in
New York, one year ago, was found
guilty of murder in the first 'degree
on Saturday, Jan. 4th, and on the
following Monday be was sentenced
to be hung on Friday Feb. 28th 1873.
When this death sentence Was pro
nounced by the Judge, Stole show
ed little or no emotion, but his fath
er, sister and brother wept loudly.
iS trouble among the
Washington financiers. The Senate
Finance Committee have concluded
that the Secretary of the Treasury
has no legal right to issue the $44,-
000,000 of legal tenders, which he
claims as a reserve. This leaves the
Treasury Department with little over
$4.;000,09 - of available currency on
hand. The Secretary of the Treas-
ury declares that the action of the
Senate Committee on Finance, if en
---dorsed by the House and Senate, wil:
cause a -contraction, as the depart
ment will ne compelled to keep ion
hand an increased amount of curren
cy. rnder these circumstances, it
might not be out of place for people
generally to be "putting their houses
in order.".
Tit E • Scranton Republican thinks
there is no desire to have the late
State Agent, George 4 3. Evat4,
brought to trial. It says:
The pledge given by (len. Hart
mutt in his -speech at Norristown,
that he "would not cease his endeav
ors" to compel Evans and his con
federates to. return to the treasury
the money they had stolen from it,
seems further from being fulfilled
than ever. The trial of Dvans which
was down for trial at the November
term, was, to the surprise of many,
postponed until January. Now we
are informed from Harrisburg that
the case "has been displaced (non the
docket to make room for other cases,
and it cannot now come up fur trial
before *April." It was apparent long
since, to our mind, that "the offi
cials" at Harrisburg are as averse to
having the case tried as Evans him
self, and the longer it is deferred the
more evident does this fact become
to every one familiar with the case

out: Senator, Mr Rutan, took oc
casion to tell the people of this dis
trict last fall, while he was a candi
date for The Senate, that General
Cameron woulj not be a candidate
f,r re-election to the United States
senate. He went further than this,
and told the people whose votes he
was soliciting, that if the General
changed his mind, and finally did
become - a candidate, he I Rutanl if
elected to the State Senate again,
would not vote : for him. Well what
billowed? Mr. Rutan was reaelected
to the State Senate; General Citmer
at became a candidate for re-election
to the United States Senate, and Mr.
!WWI supported him, just as we al-.
ways claimed - he would do. We on
ly make mention of these circum
stances now to show thi t pledges and
promises made before an election are
easily broken after the election is
over. But what fills us with alarm
k the fact that the People themselves

r. pinchbeck State Government
of Louisiana seems to be falling to
!Pieces on account of its own rotten
ness. Six of the state Senators he
longingto that faction rcsitTned Mgt
week, and eintlec,ed themselves
with the Warrnoth Senate which is
also in session at New Orleans. In
taking this new departure they give
their reasons for it in an address to
the people of the State, froth which
we clip the following:
\Ve deem it ourduty in the present
anomolous condition of affairs to
Mace before our constituents and the
country the reasons that actuate usin
he course of conduct we have deter
mined to pursue. We are Republi
cans and believe in a Republican
form of government. we have acted
with the national Republican party,.
hnt we cannot sanction the course
t hat • has been pursued in this Slate
by the Custom House portion of our
party and the Pinchbeck govern
ment and believe that no right think
ing person or class, no matter of
what political shade or convictions,
can sustain them in the gross viola
tion of the rights of the people, and
their reckless and intolerant course.
The organization of the Senate and
House we consider as revolutionary.
Senator legally elected have been
displaced and those whom they de
tested put in their places, members
of the Legislature returned by both
hoards have been ignored and their
places filled by defeated candidates,
proscriptive Legislation has been
rushed hurriedly through, proclama
tions have been made prohibiting the
peaceful assembling of citizens, by an
executive who holds his office with
out the co/or of right and law, and
the popular will has been so defied
and outraged that we feel that we
-
cannot longer act with a body or Oar
port an executive, who for party enGS
would sink every vestige.of libertf
in its final grave.
Md. "Homo," alias Samuel
son was once a proprietor of the
Beaver Falls Cutlery, Under his
management that establishment
did a lasing business,, and . the nee
sides of its condition forced it Into
other hands. Then Mr. Mason broke
out in New Brighton, where he in
duced a number of persons to embark
with him in the erection of a new
cutlery works, rum them a short
time, involved all who were associa
ted with him, made an assignment
and then left the State. This same
gentleman now finds fault with us
for believing that others understand
managing a cutlery establishment
better than himself, and invites us to
a discussion ,with him on his theory of
business. 'Mr. Mason ! you have
given your capacity to handle cutlery
works, and your business ideas a prac
tical test in the two instances above
referred to. The results show us and
should teach yOti that you are not a
proper instructor for others in that
business. If the world therefore,
will lose nothing by your silence on
that question would it not be prudent
to maintain it ?
Tin Harrisburg Stale Journal
makes the point on Senator Rutan
that ha cannot have paid much at
tention to the popular feeling on the
subject, or he would not have offered
his resolution to instruct our Senators
and request , our Representatives. In
Congress to vote against the proposi
tion for the ghverntneht ter fisiume
the control awl management of the
telegraph lines of the country. No
more popular measure was ever sug
gested to the business interests of the
country, arid with rare exceptions
the press supports it heartily. For
the Pennsylvania Legislature to
interfere to prevent our Senators and
Representatives • from supporting
what the people Um almost demand
seems Quixotic in the extreme. It is
coming to be pretty generally under
stood that there Is a "huge snake,"
in this effort to prevent the Govern
ment from taking charge of the tele
graphic business of the country. Its
complexion however is not generally
nnderstood yet by the uninitiated.
Senator Rutan is believed to know
all about its color, length, and capaci
ty to yield.
THE RADICAL of last week took
occasion to characterize our ideas on
the Chinese question as "inconsider
ateand foolish." We were amazed to
see that it could abstain from "puff
ing" somebody even long enough or
furnish sufficient room to tell us
what it thought of our article on thnt
subject. We hope that no serious
damage will come to it because of
this digression from its usual course.
Writing "puffs" is evidently the
new editor's best hold, and we pre
sume no one hasa livelier appreciation
of that fact than the new and absent
proprietor of that paper. It would
perhaps not be wide of the mark to
say that that knowledge on the Sen
ator's part was just why Prof. C.
was put in charge of the Kelm during
his absence.

A curious case is developing itself
in Washington. A summons of the
United States Court of Claims has
just been served on the Secretary of
the Treasury by JudgeJosph Casey,
counsel for the Bank of Louisiana,
calling on him to show whether there
were captured in Georgia, in April,
IKV), by the Union army, sixty kegs
of coins, partly American coins and
partly Spanish coil* or any less
number of kegs of such coins, and
whether the same were returned to
and deposited In the Treasury of the
Cutter] Stab s and whether any such
kegs of the Raffle kind of gold coins ,
were captured in or near Richmond
after the surrender of the city to the
United States forces. About the
same time whether there were cap
tured hi Georgia, at Richmond, or
any other place at or about the time
mentioned, two hundred and seven
teen boxes of silver coins, co nta juin?.
In value aboutsl,ooomeh, and direct
ing the Secretary to render to the
United States Court of Claims 11 full
and true copy of returns and history.
of the ownership and capture by the
United States officers or agents giv
en or aemtupanying the said keg*.
and boxes of gold and silver coins,
and the marks, names, places and
other designation on said kegs and
boxes, and when they came to said
department, also directing, him to re
port to the Court what disposition
has been made of said gold and silver
coins, when and by whose order it
was made. and if the same has in any
manner been "disposed of and by
what right the Mame was done.
The United States Government al
ways believed and we presume still
believes, that the money here refer
red to, belonged to the Confederate
cioVernment. Hence after the cap
s ture of the (-tun it was converted into
bullion, and sutmequently became a
part of theassets of the United States
Treasury. In Isll6 however, certain
Virginia and New Orleans hanks,
claimed that the specie belonged to
them, and not to the Comfederate
Government. Little or nothing.was
done in the matter then; now, how
ever. IL seems that _these banks are
getting ready to prove their owner
ships to the coin in question. The
amount involved is large, but what
the figures are we have not seen. If
the' banks make good their claims,
it Is thought Congress will have to
make provision for its payment.

Never but once .in the history of

experienced as that which culmina

have reached 3.. deg. Throughout

in some portions of New Hampshire
are said to have been 50° below zero.

even for many varieties of fruit
trees. There is one thing, however,
that will go a great way in warding
off fears in this direction. The pre

the fall and winter set in, carried the
trees and buds into winter quarters
in the best possible condition; and,
except the buds of the peach and other
tender plants, credo not anticipate se

OPUS OF "GOV: GEAR
ANNUAL MESSAGE. ;
Governor Geary's mess:lib,' was
delivered to the Legislatureon Their
day, of last week. We publish, the
following from it. The message en.
lire is very lengthly :
To flu Senate and Haase ofßepre
sentatives of the' tbrimanwealth qf :
Pennsylicutid: • ...
GENTLEMEN:—In obedience to the
requirements of - the Constitution I
have the honor of transmitting to
you my sixth annual message. Since
your last meeting the general course
of events, both State and /Cations',
has been so propiciona as to afford
abundant cause fur mutual out:modu
lation, and of thanksgiving to that
Almighty Providence whose will
controls the destinies of ail. While
we have been exempt from the ca
lamity by fire that, has befallen the
metropolis of a great sister State, her
misfortune has inured to the ene
fit of our people by the enlistment of
that sympathy for the suffering
which is one of the most ennobling
sentiments of the human heart. The
seasons, though not,so favorable for
the productions otour soil as in-some
past years. have been sufficiently
fruitful; and no general epidemic has
appeared to disturb the pursuits, or
fill with sorrow the hearts of our
population. Our mining Industries,
manulactures and internal commerce
I are being constantly enlarged and ex
tended, and their .enterprising pro
prietors are generally receiving re
munerative returns.
A great political conflict has occur
ed, resulting in a signal triumph of
the same principles that were aster-
Led in
.:the xestoratinnof the Union
otooannoduteato of.the Conotitidikth:
and the Molatetletkin of thafitatcs.
The victory to Pennsylvania was de
cisive of the victory in the Nation,
and will ever be remembered as an
inestimable contribution to the har
mony, prosperity and glory of the
country. The election of the soldier,
who. "is first in war." to the office
that makes him "first in peace," was
an appropriate exhibition of nation
al gratitude, and inspires the,deepest
feelings of satisfaction "in the hearts
or his countrymen."
While the Constitution wisely
withholds from the Governor all
power of interference in legislation,
it imposes upon him the duty of lay
ing before the General Assembly
such information of the state of af
fairs, and recommending to their con
sidetation such measures es he way
deem expedient and important to the
public welfare.
I am happy to inform you that
peace and good order have been main
tained by.the enforcement °Oust and
equal laws, and the legitimate ex
ercise of authority continues to find
au enduring basis of support in the
intelligence, affections and moral
sense of the people.

FINKING FUND
In remarking upon this subject,
trust it will be instructive to refer,
briefly, to some of the facts relating
to the accumulation and payment of
the bublic dept, and the origin of the
assets arising from the sale of public
improvements.
However wise our predecessors
were in opening avenues for . trade
and commerce, and however great
were the benefits resulting to the
people from the internal improve
ments of the State, it is obvious, that
while , those of other States rarely,
failed to become sources of revenue,
the management of ours was such as
to produce results widely different.
A large majority of the tax-payers,
therefore, after long and patient en
durance, he owing dissatisfied with
their management, demanded they
should be sold, assuming it would
be a measure of economy, and would
prevent an increase of the public ob
ligations.
The construction of the improve
ments revolted hi a public debt .w h ich,
in 1852, reached its maximum, $4l,
ti. 24, 875 37. The Interest, premiums
and other expenses that have been
paid upon the debt, from its incipien
cy to November 30, 1872, sum up $76,-
845,744 9:1; and make the entire ex
penditure on account of the public
works, $118,370,620,36.
In pursuanceof law the State canals
and railroads were sold in 1857,
for eleven million dollars in bonds;
upon which the State has received
$1,700,000 00 in cash, and $9,306,000.-

missioners of the Sinking Fund, as

Pennsylvania, less fortunate than
many of her sister states, has no
school fund. The legislative appm
priations amount only to about six
hundred thousand dollars annually ;
but the people, in the several dis
tricts, voluntarily vote all other
moneys neceNary to support the
schools. The,foreguing statements
briefly exhibit the deep and increas

popular education.

Fortunatelr•-the Prejudice
against the System no longer exist;
but indifferendt, to a lamentable ex
tent, occupies its place. From the
report of the Superintendent it ap
pears that the number of children in
• the State, who do-not attend school,
exceeds sevetity-five thousand.
This criminal neglect is most preva
lent in the cities. In Philadelphia
twelve per cent.-ef-tbe children be
tweenthe ages of five and fifteen
years do rint 4 eStend .school. But
more significant and alarming still.
'of the whole number registe
redrts at
tendants, forty-six per cent. are ab
sent from the•daily sessions. In the
State at • large the unregistered
amount to six per cent., and the ab
sentees to thirty-three per cent.
And, as waViaturally to be expected
the resultinelemorance from his ne
glect has proved •a fruitful source of
crime. Sixteen per cent. of the in
mates of the State prisons are unable
to read.
Oviously, therefore, it is not suffi
cient that the State makes ample
provision. Such measures should be
immediately adopted as would se
•cure.a universal participation of the
benefit. The children are not to
blame. They -naturally prefer free
dom and amusement to the confine-k
ment and studies of theschool room.
Parents and guardiansare the parties
with whom the State must deal.
She owes it alike to her own peace
and security, and to the highest wel
fare of the children who are to be her
future citizens, to see that they shall

In passing from this topic-, of para
mount importance to the future
. well-being of the Commonwealth, 1
unhesitatingly express the hope that
the day is not distant when
through the Bureau of National Ed
ucation, seconded by the concurrent
legislative action of the States, every
child In theAmetican Union, with
out reference to creed: caste, color or
condition, will be thoroughly and ef
fectually instructed in ail the elemen
tary branches of English education ;
and that uniform text hooks, setting
forth the trite history and theory of
our National and i State government,
will be provided and introduced into
all the schools of the country.
Aproximation orthought and opin
ion on these subjects is of vital conse
quence to the permanence of the
Union, and the stability of our re
publican institutions. Had such a
Measure been opportunely initiated
the war of the rebellion would scarce
ly have been possible.
Should you deem your powers in
adequate to enact4mitahle laws upon
this subject. the constitutional Con
vention, now in Session, should not
hesitate to habilitate you with such
authority, atul thus lend their aid
and influence in !baking Pennsylva
nia the viinguardin the great mission
of universal edualition.
Front the repott of tile Superin
tendent of Soldiers' Orphans' sehords,
and other sources Libel fully author
ized in assuring
share
they were nev
er before In a flourishing. and
prosperbus condition.
Every child. legally eligible, and
having medeappltottion, is now ad
mitted to these schools. The whole
number of admissions since lAii.r) Is 6,-
429; the discharges from all causes
leaving ire' attendance 3.5?7.
No larger number will probably
hereafter be attained, and It may
confidently be expected that this
number wilt be subject to an 'annual
reduction of at least 500, uritill the
system shall have accomplished its
mission. 4
The entire expenseof these schools
to the State, since they Went into op
eration in 1865,' is $.1,467,54311.
Their cost during the last year was
$475,245 47. It is estimated by the
Superintendent that the future ex
pense, to the period of their final ex
tinction, will not exceed' one million
five hundred thousand dollars.
The health of theehildien has been
excellent. Their exemption from
small-pox, while it was prevailing all
around them, is remarkable; And no
stronger evidence of good manage
ment and the propitious results of
systematic vaccination, could be ad
duced. The exemplary conduct of
the pupils after their discharge is one
of the most gratifying circumstances
connected with, their history. The
following statement of the Superin
tendent will be highly' satisfactory . to
the Legislature and the people;
"From the beginnjngof these seltools
to the present, the greeter part of the
children who have retelved thdir ad
vantages have been honorably dis
charged. And frem facts in the pos
session of the department-1r appears

Alley have in turn told the Commit
tee and the country what they know
about Credit Mobilier. Of the three
statements, that of MeCosnh is cer
tainly the most straight-forward, co
herent, plausible, and probable. It`
has not been broken down by the
others in any essential point unless
we should except the assertions about
Mr. Brooks, welch are flatly contra
dicted 'by • Alley. However faulty
his inferences may be, McComb
would seem to have got his facts—at
least the main ones—pretty nearly
.1. is a bad and a sad business.
The ascertained truth is infinitely
worse than the "campaign slanders."
We had the privilege of discrediting
these—of taking them at their own
discount. At least one journal sup
porting Mr.. Greeley steadily insist-
Kelley, and Colfax must be innocent
of the thing laid at, their doors; that
they were above suspicion. The
facts developed by this investigation
are a surprise and pain to us, as they
are a surprise and a pain to the coun
try. Of course. it is absurb to sup
pose that such men as we have
named sold themselves, deliberately
bartered away their honor, for the
trivial sums mentioned in this testi
mony. But they have compromised
themselves as they had no right to
do. That it was done thoughtlessly
in seine cases we gladly believe; un
suspicious gentlemen without the
money-making faculty might easily
come to regard Mr. Ames as a sort
of rich uncle from the East Indies or
fairly godmother, and think it very
kind of him to put them in the way
of a good thing. But the hesitation
in other cases,the leaving of the stock
in Mr. Ames' name, the subsequent
anxiety to get rid of it, the quib
bling denials of the recent canvass—
all these things have a bad look.
They shake the public faith In the
virtue of public men. They give oc
casion to the adversary, and he Is not
slow to avail himself of it. They
show a carelessness of appeanfface
that is hardly less injurous to its im
mediate affects than corruption itself.
As a leading Western journal well
puts itrthey "inevitably diminish
the Influence of men who occupied
positions in the Republican party
enabling them to demand Im
portant measpres of reform needed
by the whole country, and who pos
sessed sufficient courage ( the exigen
cies of the campaign being over) to
make the demand." This, after all,
is the -sadest and most unfortunate
feature of a very sad and unfortunate
business.

The company Wattle involved; and
at this juncture Fisk came upon the
Fs'ene. A contract was struck, Fisk
entered the refinery company.backed
it with capital and railway favor, and
it sailed into successful operation.
Stokes was Secretary as well as part
ner, and his income was at one time
$l,OOO per week. In 1564 he married
a Miss Southwick, daughter of a
furniture dealer of great wealth, and
moved in the most brilliant circles of
the metropolis, the young couple
lacking nothitx that wealth and -0-
dal position could bring to secure
happiness. Now the woman Mans
fiehl appearefi in the plot, a quarrel
ensued between Stokes and Fisk,
which was carried into affairs of bus
iness; the income of the former from
the refinery was cut off, and. enraged
thereat, he seized $30,000 of the com
pany's funds, which he was finally
compelled to disgorge. The rela
tions between Stokes and ' , Mansfield
grew more disgraceful and shame
less, and his father-in-law, South
wiek,sent his daughter and her child
to Europe in 1571, to remove her
from the taint Of - scandal. Out of all
this grew hatred and finally murder.
The steamship that took out the news
of FiSk's assassination, carried out a
divorce for Stokes's wife, which had
been procured by her friends. The

Although he had gone tip stairs only

living in the &ate of Ohio brought

he had agreed to marry her, and fail•
