3Mg==l= and I recommend - that the Legislature take measures for that purpose. Tho State of Maryland has proposed to her sister States that Ahoy unite with her in establishing a cemetery for our soldiers who fell at Antietam. I herewith transmit copies of the Ma ryland statute, and other documents on this subject, and recommend the passage of an act heartily accepting the proposition of the State of Marv hind. All the States having promptly .and generously responded to our pro• position to have a cemetery at Gettys burg, it would seem prdper that we should reciprocate, and unite in this. The duty is more sacred when we re— member that more 'of Pennsylvania's sons fell in that battle than those of any other State. The report of the State Agent at Washington, herewith transmitted, shows that under his efficient manage ment the claims of our soldiers are promptly examined and paid. Every effort has been made to apprise our ()diners and men that their claims will be collected by the State Agent (Col. Jordan), without expense to thern ; yet . it is feared that many of them continue to employ private claim agents; whose fees bear heavily on the claimants. Since my last annual message I have expended of the secref, service fund, the sum of four thousand three hundred and thirty-three dollars and twenty cents, out of Nhich I have paid my personal staff and'other extraordi nary expenses. No aupropriation is required for the increasd of this fund. 1 invite your 'attention to the re— ports of the Military Departments of the State, to the report of the Super intendent of Common Schools, which exhibits the prosperous. condition- of our system of public education, and to the report of the Surveyor General, and recommend to your favorable con. sideration the many excellent sugges tions made by that officer. I commend to your earnest consid, eration the suggestion made by the Surgeon General in his report, here with transmitted, on the propriety of legislation for the protection of our people, by proper sanitary measures, from the revises of the cholera, which is now approaching our shores. I commend to the wisdom of the Legislature the subject of providing for the relief of our many maimed and Wounded soldiers. Possibly this might be done by continuing and enlarging the acts providing for boards of relief in the several counties. I recommend the adoption by the Legislature of this or some other plan for doing juss tice to the class of men in question. By the joint resolution of May 16, 1861, authorizing me to give flags to our regiments. it was made the duty of the Executive to receive the flags when the regiments returned. This has not been hitherto done, inasmuch as they have not all yet been muster , od out. As soon as this shall have Li ken place, the flags will be received with appropriate ceremonies, and Ire. commend that the Legislature make provision for eausing.them to be hung in the new Library. I refer to the suggestion of Brig a.. dier General Todd, Inspector General, on the subject of the militia. lam not prepared to make any recommendation on this subject, as I observe with great pleasure, that Congress is proposing to establish a uniform system through out the United States. The arsenal at Harrisburg is decay ing and unsafe. The arms and muni tions of the State there deposited are of the value probably of half a million of dollars. I recommend that provis ion be made for repairing it, or that a new arsenal be constructed in thie•vi cinity, for the purpose of securing then' preservation. Since my last annual message, the, late President of the United States has -fallen a victim of the most foul and base assassination recorded in history. It will afford me pleasure and I will heartily unite with you in any expres sion of indignation at the crime, and of appreciation of the public virtue and services of its victim, Abraham Lincoln. • . My uniform course during the late war, was to avoid the discussion of the policy of the General Govbrnment, while giving a hearty support to the National authorities in all their meas ures to suppress the rebellion. I shall continue to pursue the same course during the embarraSsinents necessarily connected with the entire restoration of the country: The principles expressed in the massage oftho President, at the commencement of the session of Con gress, will receive my cordial support, During the last five years the peo ple of this State have suffered deeply from the calamities of war. Thousands of her men have been slain, and oth: ers are maimed and broken. Almost every family has been stricken, and everywhere there are widows and or: phans, many of them helpless and in poverty. It is a subject of sincere congratulation, that peace has at last returned. I am not aware of the existence of any-difficulty with other nations which may not be amicably adjusted, and iherefore venture to express the hope that long years of tranquility and hap piness are before us. A. CURTIN .0W- The Treasury Department re ceived a novel suggestion from an in dividual, who proposed to dispense with the present fractional currency by issuing coin. This is hie proposition: "Let the five-cent piece have the head of liberty cut in perfect outline from sheet silver, of the proper thickness— the size to weigh about three cents in value. From rolled copper then cut the oval, with the exact space of the head pf liberty punched out, so that the sil : ger head can be fitted in, and the piece then stamped and milled. Let the ten cent pieces be made the same way only increasing the size of the head." 13 A private letter from London dated January. 6, says: "The lease by the Atlantic and Great Western rail. road contemplates the establishment of a lino of ocean steamers from Philadel phia. When ono half of the stock nec essary is subscribed, the railway com pany agree to furnish the other half. Negotiations are in progress for the ex tension of the Atlantic and Great Wes. tern railroad to Chicago, if successful, flour will be carried to Philadelphia and New York for 25 per barael,. and Indian corn at 25 cents per bushel, time guaranteed at lour wC ...+: ✓-v~P iac w: ~PN~ I .u,L'-'sog.' - g.titl'!:' ,.
