A report is herewith submitted of tho pardons, remissions of lines, forfeited recognizance anil death warrants, issued by nio during tho past year, with atab itlur statement of thoso Issued from 1791 to tho present time. This report Is mado In accordanco with nxeno of duty to tho Legislature and tho public who havo a right to bo informed In what manner and to what oxtent tho Execu tive clemency has been employed to ward convicted criminals. It Is also duo to tho Kxccutivo himself that his action in this regard should bo under stood. On no subject has there been greater misrepresentation than on that which relates to tho excrclso of the pardoning power. Accusations havo repeatedly been published ofitsnbuse, and casenhavo been cited in proof there of, which were never presented to my notice. Criminals wero liberated from prison after sentence, and clamors raised in relation to their pardon, lu "'cases Jn which no appeal for clemency had over been made. Upon Investiga tion, it has boon ascertained that u cus tom prevails In the court of quarter ses sions of Philadelphia, to re-consider, re mit nnd cliango sentences, weeks and months niter their delivery, mid in this, much of tho misrepresentation has orig inated. During tho lost year, in many convicts wero thus liberated from tho Moyamenslngjall ns wore pardoned by mo from nil tho prlsonsln thoCommon winl th, Ilesiiles which a number more havo had their terms of sentence re duced, How, or when, or under what uuthority, this custom originated, it is Impossible to learn ; but thnt it is llablo to abuse, and Is without the sanction of law, seenM evident. Tho sentence of a convict 1:1 a matter of grave Importance, nnd should rccelvo most serious consltl erallon before It Is determined upon and delivered j for when It his become a matter of record, tho criminal passes beyond thejurlsdlctlonofthe court, nnd there Is no legator constitutional rem edy, oven for errors that may bo com mitted, except through appeal to tbo Executive. If u Judge can remit or shorten u sentence, hu can Increase It, and that is a power dangerous to allow any ono to wield. And further, 1 r It bo lawful for thojudgoof ouo court to re mit sentences at pleasure, It follows that Judges of nil other courts should bo In vested with thosamo prerogative j nnd it requires no argument to show to what n dangerous extent it might hu used. Happily, the custom appears to bo con fined to the court immed, ns Judges In other counties disclaim any such autho rity. Formor Legislatures hnvo bad their attention called to tho tact that persons nro now confined In our county prl-ons under sentence of death, some or them for many years, whoso death warrant were never Issued, and towards whum the several Governors, during whoso tfrtu tbey were trttultuvtd, could not discover milllclent eiuio fortlieexereNi1 of the pardiinlnij power. Tlio euloni Inn licou for o.ieli (loverner to decline I"uliitf a death warrant which had been withheld by bl-i piedeee-'or. Hence, the-u convict-, sentcnivd to death, for wlnw execution the previous (lovern om did not Issiio warrant, and whom, It Is presumed they believed deserved a milder mmishmcnt, must either ho pardoned or remain prisoners for life. To remedy this tlio Governor should bo vested with authority to coniuitlto the death penalty In the caes only to which nllusloti has been made, to such a term ot Imprisonment ns his Judg ment would npprovcymd toremovotlio convicts from county Jails to the pcnl-tentlarles. ' xatioXAI, AFl'AIUS. basis of lovaltv and natrlotlim Contrary to tlio hopes of tho great masses of our people, that portion of tho country which Wns lately In rebellion has not yet attained complete tranquil ity. And tldsMcems to havo been In evitable; for nil history teaches us that n people who engage In tho perpetration orhleh cilmcs cannot entirely nor Im mediately escape their consequences. Xor, perhaps, Is it desirable that thev should. However this may be, it Is certain that perfect ropo-e cannot be secured until tho Insurrectionary State shall resumo their original practical re lation to tho General Government, Jfoie. when, uml through whom this can bo best done, la tho great question of tho present. That the viows mid conceptions of n single individual, however high homay bo uccldentallynnd temporarily exalted. should bo allowed to control or detcr- mlno this qucstlon,cannot for a moment bo conceded. Tho Constitution pro vides that the United States shall guar antee to every state in tlio union n re- nuiiiican lorm oi trnvernment : ami. where the will of the penplo Is the acknowledged law of the land, It re iiuiresiui extraordinary amount of iiolit- leu eitrontery to assume mat n unci Executive of tlio nation, to any degree or under any circumstances, is un united States. And yet In effect or substance. If not In iilain terms, this wns assumed short ly after tho surrender of Leo nnd his urmcd forces, by the President; and he nns continued to net on tins ussump tlon, even in ids late annual incs-niro. in which, while claiming, in words unknown to our forefathers nnd our in stitutions, to bo tho "elected defender" of tho people, he arrogantly calls nn Congress to "Immediately strike from tho statute books" Its recon-tructlou laws. That Congress "will surrender Its plan of reconstruction" to this mani festly despotic demand, cannot bo even Imagined or coniectured. That nlnn. carefully matured as It was, nnd fully approved when It was n direct i-suo be fore the people. Is eminently lust. wise. und patriotic. It insists that men who wero loyal In acts during tlio rebellion, or loyal in their feelings, should alone partlclnato in tho Immediate irovern- ment of tho 'Insurrectionary districts." Going beyond thu mere surface, it rests ultimately on tlio important doctrine, that tho destinies of tho nation can oulv ho safe "in tho hands of its friends:'1 of thoso whose political and moral na ture remains suiucientiy pure to reel tho impulses of patriotism mid tho obli gations of oaths. That tiollcv which antagonizes the Comrrcselonal nlaii. which hns obstruct. ed, and persistently endeavored to de feat It, first Ignores all theso Important considerations. Having dono this, It consistently maintains that thoso who devised tlio most Infamous measures of war, and for years relentlessly perpetra ted, in aid of their jjurposes, theft, luiiiuur, uuiruur, siarvuiion, anu nssas- sinntion tho very leaders of tho rebel lionshould bo nllowed ftftcr their In voluntary failure, to possess nil tho rignts aim privileges or good citizens. Tiiat a senemo bo nt absurd nnd danenrnns should be sternly opposed by ovorv true patriot, ought to admit of no doubt. The fact that it has some advocates ren ders it more important to sustain tho contrary proposition. In my Inaugural address, I snid,"thut whllo Pennsylvania will confldoin aloy nl Congress, she will not hesitate to sus tain It by her intlucnco and power." This I repeat. Norcan I bo induced to cliango this purpose ; nor do I believe the peoplo of the State can be, by appeals to tho humnultnrlnnlsm of tbo ago and thelnvocation ofmerey for thoso whoo atrocious deeds havo darkened tlio pages uiuumiBiury. li lias oeen wen bald, "the pity of tho magistrate which sur fers a criminal dangerous to society In escapo from deserved punlshment.lsiiot mercy but weakness." q'rue mercy in clines us to pity and relievo the unfortu nate nnd guilty ; but only in accordanco with justice. Audit may well be added, that it Is at least a weakness, If not n crime, to permit unrepentant nml only outwardly subdued traitors, to exercise tho clectivo franchise, hold olllccs, or tako part In the deliberations und legis lation of tne nation. Its stability and prosperity, tho welfare of tho people now and hereafter, cannot permit these things to bo done. individual interests, as well ns tho general financial condition of our na tional affairs would bo greatly benefit ted by theslmpllllcatlonof internnl rev enue taxation, reducing tho number or articles taxed and Insuring honesty and faithfulness; In collection. The reduc tion of taxes on the necessaries of llfo ami on miinul'netures that are in com pe tition witli tho products of foreign labor should bo encouraged, whllo the tax on luxuries, and Imports should ho madn sulllclent to sustain the expense of tho government. Tho peoplo of Pennsylvania, over truo to tlio Union, nnd unswerving In their determination to preservo Ite lien or, integrity, and perpetuity .are proud mid frei toas-ert tliosiicredness or tlio national debt, and that Itsultimato pay ment in full must bo secured.

AUIF.IITSON, j. 1 . llA.NrtO.N, Tho Governor's IHCcssage, Tins document, being n matter of In terest to every tax payer, and to every citizen ofour Commonwealth wo give It in tell. Tho Message shows that the State debt Is about $a5,UO,O0H. It glios es over tho fact that Inst year tho itadl cul Statu Treasurer and Auditor Gene ral, got from the Legislature authority to borrow twenty-thrie.mllllons at six per cent Interest, to redeem a loan or loans, of about twenty-two millions, on which the Interest wns 11 vo per cent, thus tit onco throwing Into the pockets of somo body the snug sum of $230,000 annually. The new loan isexemptfrom taxes, and the other was not. There was a largo balance In the hands of the Treasurer before, and now accor ding to Gov. Geary there Is $1,000,000, 00, and by propo-es to lend it ntonr per cent. He says nothing iibout reducing tlio taxes, and they certainly could be reduced to tho extent of a mllllonannu ally, but seems to thlnl. that people havo become so thoroughly used to tax is under radical rule, that they will contlnuo to pay them for the mere love of tho thing. Tlio idea of borrowing at six per cent, and lend at four is original with Geary, and lie isfnirly entitled totho honorof discover ing so novel a theory In finance. Ho never practiced It however in his pri vate affairs, wo daresay. Thu pressure ol Democratic criticism has alio compell ed him to advert to tho fact that the State Trea-uicr has between threo and four millions of dollars surplus,whllo his bail Is only $S0,000. Ho advises an in crease in tho Treasurer's palary. AVe can't sco why V This vast amount ot money thoTrcasurer loans out to differ ent banks, nnd even nt six per cent would mako between two nnd three hundred thousand dollars besides his 6alary. This amount Is generally used by tho Iladlcals for n corruption fund. Tho Governor's loyalty Is much purer than Gov. Kenton's, and his Christiani ty is much brighter than Henry Ward licecher's, for ho withholds tho State Appr priatlon of $.1,000 from tho Antlo tam Cemetery because tho rebel dead are also to be burled in a decent manner. No more pitiable exhibition of narrowness could ho made, than that shown by Geary. Tho war being over every good citizen should endeavor to allay the bitterness caused by tlio lato war, and hu Is nn enemy ot his country who would contlnuo tho agitation. Yet Geary virtually says to the peoplo of the South, "you must be good citizens, obey tlio laws, lovo us" anil yet at tho satno tlmo denies their dead broth ers and husbands and fathers Christian burial. Is it necessary, wo would ask, to restorethisGovernment in hatred when itcouldbetlonoin love? Let Ireland, Hun gary.Poland.showtliercsultofthoGenry policy. When, last Summer, Southern ladies scattered ilowers alike over union and rebel dead, the act was praised by the wholo nation, ami yet the Governor of a great Statu, a mail who claims to lo n soldier, descends to a petty re venge, which even a henllien would re fuse to sanction. Tlio Governor also alludes to tlio fact that lnrgo amounts havo been stolen from tho Capital In the way of booUs.ctc. but singularly enough omits to statu that not onoof tho thieves was ever prosecut ed, and so far us wo know wero retained In oillcc. On National questions ho takes ground lr. favor of Congress ; that Is in r.wor of disfranchising tho whites-giving politi cal control to the blacks, wiping out ten States and otherwise hastening on another civil war. Tho message Is units'ially lcngtliy.nnd a largo part of It tlig merest twaddle. It Is common howcver,-for men of few Ideas, to require a largo amount of Ian- gu.igo to clotho them. Many of his re commendation', nro good, and wo trust will bo shaped Into laws. Hut of these hereafter. Tjji: Republican Party will find It expedient and necessary before long to define its position In regard to tho Con stitution of the United States. A go-J many things have happened which eu courngo the suspicion that tho party holds, with Mr. Stevens', that tills In strument Is "two old-hishloned for this progressive age," and Is Inclined, us opportunities oiler, to set it aside and adopt tlio Declaration of Independence or tho will of Congress In Its stead. It will nut bo amiss In them to dispel this illusion, if It be one, and to give the country some ussuianco Dint thoy still ngard tho Constitution ns tlio supremo law.of tlio land, Wo commend the sub ject to their consideration.-A'.

Two weeks ago It was 100, but tho late revolutionary proceedings of Congress havo run It up to 1 II, and oth er prices will go up In proportion. Tho supporters of Rudlcullsm can thus sou tb ruult of U.Ut tiuu doctrtucs. Hadlcal Desperation. In politics, us In 1111 uriiiy, desperate tactics betoken weakness lu the party using them. Tho Itatllcnl party, when all seenicil smooth nnd favorable, ;) temliil at least to keep within constitu tional limits. Tho Into elections how ever havo demonstrated to thein thai their hold on power Is short, niul that nn enraged people aro about to repudi ate them. Conscious of their approach ing loss of power, they seize Gen. Grant as an "available" candidate, expecting to elect htm 011 his mere personal popu larity, thereby acknowledging thai there is nothing In tho principles ol their party to nivo them from defeat. Not long since they proposed to settle existing dllllcultlcs by n proposed Con stitutional Amendment. Afterwards, they cast It aside ami passed u Kecon structlon .scheme. This proving a fall lire, they tacked to It a supplementary bill, and allei wardsan explanatory bill Finding, however, that notwithstand ing till their schemes to set up negro govern incuts In the South, thero was d.iimer of defeat even there, they hnve made a bold push uml are about passing u bill which in substance makes Grant dictator Attempts to take from tin President bis constitutional olllce ol Cominander-lii Chief, nnd provides for suspending him from otllco on attempt lug to exercise nny such command and entirely abrogates all the existing State governments In tho ten unrepresented States. Not satislletl with giving their candidate absolute power, they have al so offered a resolution to drop Geuer.il IInnco"k from tho rolls ns Major Gener nl, to punish him for attempting to vlip dlcato the laws of tho land, and for his failure to govern his District according to Itadlcnt precedent. Not content with tills they liao also Introduced 11 resolution to require n two-thirds vote of the Sttprcmu Court to declare a law unconstitutional. That Is, a body of men called a Congress- representing a minority of tlio people, after excluding the Stntcs from tho Un! on, place them under military control then usurp tlio ollleo nnd functions of tho President and now propose to con trol tho decisions of tho Supreme Court. it remains to uu seen whether tho peo plo will endorse such grossly unconstl tutlonnl acts. If thoy do, then farewell to liberty In America. Edwin IVT. Stanton. Tm: Senate by n strict party vote have refused to concur with tho Prcsi dent in suspending tho lato Secretary of war. General Grant nt onco turned the department over to him, and ho Is now in possession. Of course, if unmolested by tlio President, he will again surround himself by an nnny of favorites, and do nwny with nil tho reforms inaugura ted by General Grant. Tho latter cur tailed tho expenses by somo millions ol dollars, which, wo presume is 0110 con trollng reason why Stmiton is put back. The Radicals want the money for elec tioneering purposes. Mr. William D. Howells, whoso "Venetian Life" received such hearty nnd discriminating praiso from tho Eng lish and too American press, now comes lorwnrd with n companion volume, called "Italian Journeys" (llurd & Houghton, New York). Starting from Venice, where it will be remembered Mr. Howells was Amer ican Consul, ho travels in n delightfully leisurely manner to Rome. Padua, Ferrura, Uolognu, Genoa, Naples, Pom peii, Herculaneupi, Capri, are the stopping-places: and llttlojourneyt to Pisa, Trieste, Iiassano, I'ossagno (Canova's birthplace), Arqua (Petrarch's home), Como, Vicenza, Parma, nnd Verona, give tho book a completeness so far as tho subject goes, and nn easy, rambling method of treatment which tako it out of tho ordinary category of books of travel. Perhaps tho most evident charm of the book is Its freedom from hurry. The reader loiters with the author, qulto Indifferent whether n cer talnjiolntln the Journey is reached or not, .so pleasant Is tho Immediate scene. Thosamo characterlstlcts which marked "Venetian Lite" nro found In "Italian Journeys;" but tho book is n fuller ex pression of Mr. Howell's peculiar gifts. It is even more carefully studied, more graceful and delicate; Its humor has hadjust that slight pruning which it needed, and thu greater rango of sub jects permits tho author to tako on ut times u inoro thoughtful nnd delibera tive tone. It Is 11 pleasant book, but It isnl-onn instructive 0110; nnd tlio tuul tltudlnoiH touches by which tlio nuthor has delineated Italian character nnd Italian Kcenery.thougli each seem slight, produce u full and decided impression upon tlio reador's mind.
