a sufficient test of fish culture in Pennsylvania.
I transmit herewith a cominunication, received
through the State Department at Washington,
from the British Minister, wherein he states "that
regulations have been adopted in Cana,l4, to pro
tect and promote the increase of fish frequenting
in common the frontier waters of this country and
the Dominion, and suggests the importance of
kindred legislation on the subject on the part of
the State of Pennsylvania," to which I ask your
attention.
BOARD OF PUBLIC CHARITIES
The public service has sustained a severe loss
in the resignation of Hun. George L. Harrison.
the able and efficient president, of the Board of
Public Charities. The broad and humane views
of Mr. Harrison, and the unremitted zeal and
energy with which be devoted himself to the la
bors of the Board and the faithful administration
of its responsible trusts, have won for him the es
teem of oar citizens, and were alike honorable to
himself and useful to the public. The vacancy
in the Board was filled by the election of the lion.
G. Dawson Coleman, whose experience and char
itable disposition eminently fit him for its duties,
and give assurance that neither the interests of
humanity or the public will be overlooked in the
supervision that the Board will continuo to snake
of the various institutions of the State. Obser
vation shows that the investigations of the Board
have been productive of great good in securing
for many unfortunates more considerate treatment
and the correction of some flagrant abuses that
existed in our jails and almshouses. The public
spirit and humanity of the gentlemen of the
Board, and their benevolent and disinterested
labors, entitle them to the gratitude of our people,
and should command for their suggestions your
respectful consideration.
VAGRANCY
Tho public mind is becoming seriously alarmed
about the prevalence of vagrancy, and some
measures should be taken to regulate and restrain
this propensity to live by begging and in idleness.
There are thousands of vagrants soliciting alms
from day to day, who are unwilling to labor and
are undeserving of sympathy, and whom it is a
mistaken and misplaced charity to aid. The man
whose suffering is real and is drives to common
beggary to supply his wants, will not recoil from
any proposition to work and earn his bread, how
ever humble or arduous the labor to beperformed.
Would it not be well, therefore, to establish a
registry to which all these vagrants or tramps
should be made to resort, and where a record of
their names, places of residence and appearance
could be made, and where upon application, if
they were in absolute want, they could be assigned
to some work upon the streets or roads, or some
other necessary employment, in compensation for
the assistance they might receive. A failure to
report to this registry and an application to a
residence for alms, should subject the applicant to
an imprisonment. Some restriction of this kind
must be imposed upon this beggar class, not only
to abate what is fast becoming an intolerable
nuisance, but to distinguish between the deserv
ing and undeserving poor, and as recent events
have shown for the protection of life and property.
PRISONS.
The inspectors of the Eastern Penitentiary will
address a communication to the Legislature in
regard to the overcrowded condition of the insti
tution in their charge, and the character of these
gentlemen and the familiarity with the various
methods of prison discipline, together with the
necessity of making some provision for this excess
of prisoners in the Eastern Penitentiary, will, I
am confident, obtain consideration for their
opinions and suggestions.
COLONIAL RECenDS.
The publication of the Second Series of Penn
sylvania Archives, authorized by act of May
l3th, 1874, has been carried forward to the com
pletion of two volumes—the first and third of the
series. The second, which will embrace• such of
the rolls as are extant, and memoranda of the
officers and soldiere from Pennsylvania, who
served in the Revolutionary war, has been de
layed that it may be rendered more authentic by
compilation of such records as may ho found in
the Department of State aud Pension Office at
Washington, and are in the archives of historical
societies. The building containing the War °See
at Washington was burned with all its records,
by an accidental fire which occurred November 8,
1800. Consequently the records which remained
in the office of the Secretary are the only authen
tic memorial of the Pennsylvania soldiers who
participated in every battle of the Re olution
from the time they entered the trenches in front
of Boston, in July, 1777, including the night at
tack at Sharon, Georgia, May 24, 1732, unl it July,
1783, when the last Pennsylvania troops em
barked en transport at James Island, South Car
olina, or Phil .delphia. The materials for one
volume embracing the documents relating to the
"Whisky Insurrection," are ready for the printer,
and considerable progress made in preparing re
maininepapers. of which the act authorizes the
publication. The series can probably be re
stricted to six volumes.
SALARIES FOR COUNTY OFFICERS,
By the provision of section 5 of the 14th article
of the new Constit ition, "in counties containing
over one hundred and fifty thousand inhabitants,
all county officers shall be paid by salary, and the
salary of any such officer and his clerks heretofore
paid by fees shall notexceed the aggregate amount
of fees earned during his term and collected by or
for him."
The Legislature passed a bill at the session of
1574 to make the law conform to this requirement,
but as some of its provisions were at variance witb
the Constitution, it did not receive Executive ap
proval. It is to be hoped that at this session of
the Legislature an act to meet the objections will
be framed and become a law. There is grave and
reasonable complaint made about the enormous
amounts received in fees by the occupants of some
of the offices in our larger cities, and it is time
these revenues should be diverted into the coffers
of the people, and not be wade to enrich the few
whose fortune it may be to possess them. The
contest for these offices, on account of their emo
luments, are, moreover, a truitful source of the
evils that attend upon nominations and elections,
and have a tendency to degrade and demoralize
our polities. It is the part of wisdom and econ
otny, therefore, and in the interest of good gov
ernment that a change in this regard should be
speedily made. In any measure you may adopt,
however, it should be remembered that these ofli
ces are trusts of great responsibility, and that the
salaries paid should be commensurate with the
duties and accountability of the incumbents.
POLL-TAX
Under existing laws, many of the counties,
cities and towns of the State, impose a tax upon
trades, occupations an t professions, the payment
of which is necessary before a voter can ex, rcise
his elective franchise. In other portions of the
State, this tax is so light that it is only a nomi
nal qualification to the rights of the elector. This
inequality is palpably unjust, and the tax is often
burdensome, and small as it may be, frequently
prevents a laboring us..n from going to the polls.
There is no good reason why the right of suffrage
in one county should be attended with greater
burdens than in another. and on the contrary,
there seems great injustice in such a regulation.
I renew therefore my suggestion of last year, that
all the laws imposing taxes on trades, occupations
and professions be repealed, and that a uniform
poll-tax be imposed, and that this tax he made so
reasonable, that its payment will be within the
ability of every man in the State.
BOUNDARY LINES,
The New York Legislature, by an act passed
May 26, 1575, authorized the Regents of the Uni
versity of New York, to resume the work of ex
amination as to the true location of the monu
ments which mark the several boundaries of the
State, and in connectim with the authorities of
Pennsylvania, to replace any inonutnents which
have become dilapid sled or removed on the bound
ary line of the two States, and I respectfully rec
ommend that authority be given to appoint com
missioners to act in conjunction with those of
New York, and that a suitable appropriation he
made, so that the necessary steps can be taken to
accomplish the very proper object indicated in the
above act.
BANKS.
My opinions in regard to the organization and
management of banks, saving funds and trust
companies, and the restrictions and safeguards
that should be thrown around these institutions,
were elaborately presented in my annual messages
of 1874 and 1875, and h No undergone no change,
but have rather been confirmed by investigation
and further consideration of the subject, which I
am persuaded is one of the most important to
which you can devote your attention.
I beg leave to renew, also, the several recom
mendations in my previous messages, in relation
to the prevention of the willful and wanton de
struction of our forests; the importance of a mod
ification of the exemption law, so as to forbid a
waiver of the exemption by the creditor; the
manifest benefit of adopting some measures that
will aid in the improvement of the navigation of
the Ohio river; and the necessity of giving ade
quate power of investigation to the Bureau of
Statistics, and opening every avenue of intelli
gence to the officers, so that the information which
the Bureau is expected to supply to the public
may be reliable and of value.
GEORGE W. WOODWARD
George W. Woodward, Ex-Chief Justioe of the
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, died while in
Europe, in May last. The public services of
Judge Woodward were singularly honorable and
few pages of the history of the State will contain
a more interesting recital than those which chron
icle the life of this eminent jurist, whom the Com
monwealth honored by repeated renewals of her
confidence.
-
Judge Woodward had one of those strong, ac
tive, robust minds that wedded to its convictions
is never subject to caprice, nor bends to opinion,
however fiercely it storms, and his conduct as a
legislator, judge and man shows his inflexible at
tachment to principle widely differing at times
with his friends and constituents, but with an
honest difference that had no selfish or sordid

wind.
HORACM
The length of life aceorded to the venerable
llorace Ilinney is seldom ailotled to man, and still
more rarely I- it aecompanied to .1 ripe ~1.1 age
with the vigor an d grave!, of attend
e•l upon Ili, grwit iaay cr to the his
long and .4,4.1 career. Avoiding puldic aifairs
except When duty or padrioLisin espe..ially evoked
his interference, the experience of Mr. llinney il
lustrated the power and beauty of an unblemished
private lite, and the independence, and it may al
most be said grandeur, ol• an unbroken, distin
guished and honorable career at the liar. To this
venerated jurist, who dedicated ail his time and
energy with singleness of purpose to the duties of
his profession, the liar of Philadelphia is indebted
for an example that helped to give it the character
and reputation it maintains, and it was fitting
that its most respected leaders should bow with
sorrow when in August last they followed to his
grave this aged lawyer, whose mind has left its
impress for almost a century in every step of the
progress of jurisprudence in Pennsylvania.
SAMUEL E. DIMMICK.
In October last the mortal remains of the late
Attorney General, Samuel E. Dimmick, were
reverently laid in the little cemetery at Hones
dale.
Three years ago the character, integrity and
recognized legal abilities of this lamented man
designated him for the important position he filled
with so much dignity and honor, and the full
measure of popularity he enjoyed at the time of
his death showed how satisfactorily he discharged
its responsible duties.
Generous, manly and upright in all the relations
of life, and administering his high office with a
stern and uncompromising fidelity to the interests
of the State, the deceased Attorney General tem
pered his decisions with so much benevolence and
courtesy that it is difficult to say whether as man
or official he was most beloved.
Of delicate health, and suffering from the afflic
tion that resulted in his death, in response to what
he believed a call to duty, Mr. Dimmick died
while in attendance upon the Board of Pardons,
where his merciful disposition and mature and
correct judgment were invaluable helps in dis
pensing justice.
_ _ _
iVitliltbc public grief that deplores his loss, I
may he permitted to mingle my private sorrow,
for while the State mourns for a just and incor
ruptible officer, the administration has been de
prived of a careful and wise counselor, and the
Executive of a disinterested and devoted friend.
CONCLUSION,
With the year upon which we have just entered
the Republic has had a century of existence, a
century wherein her foundations have been more
solidly and securely laid, and which has been
crowded with the evidences of her progress in
science and the useful arts, filled with the proofs
of her increased enlightenment, benevolence and
humanity, and marked by many and durable
proofs of her statesmenship and genius.
It is fitting then, that our people should cele
brate the centennial of the nation's birth and tes
tify their gratitude for the benefits we have re
ceived. With our growth in wealth and popula
tion, however, we should remember increased re
sponsibilities have come, and that we can best
show our appreciation of our institutions and
their privileges by consecrating ourselves to the
work of redeeming them from the ills that beset
them and keeping them intact and pure from
those who are to follow us.
The destiny of our great State may depend upon
the direction we may give legislation at this ses
sion of the Assembly. Let us strive then to so
shape our counsels that the verdict of posterity
will be that we acted with a view to the prosperity
of the people, and the honor and the fair fame of
the Commonwealth.

TILE CH leAtiO ENTER-OCEAN says: St.
Nicholum is an iustitution of which 'Young and
Oil America are as proud as England is of Punch.
A house without St. Xicliolas," continues the
writer, "dues not deserve to own any buys and
girls; no should wag its little tail while pres
sing its noise through the area railings, etnpha
tically, we would observe that should the sun con
desend to shine upon that house, his solar majesty
would make a big mistake."
The first volume of St. Nicholas was a surprise
even to the public that heartily welcomed it, num
ber by number. Newspaper critics expressed en
thusiastic approval ; children and parents were
alike delighted, and congratulatory letters from
distinguished men and women poured in upon
the sublishers and editors, CHARLES DUDLEY
WARNER wrote: "I do not see how it can be
made any better, and if children don't like it, it is
time to change the kind of children in this coun
try ;" WHITTIER, our great poet, wrote: "It
is little to say of this magazine that it is the best
child's periodical in the world;" and words of
hearty commendation came across the ocean from
such earnest workers and popular favorites of the
young as GEO. MACDONALD, CHRISTINA
ROSSETTI, and CANON KINGSLEY.
Beautifully bound, superbly illustrated, and
filled with good things from the best writers (in
cluding three long serial stories,) the first volume
of St. Nicholas, complete in itself, is a finer Christ
mas gift for girls and boys to-day than any single
book in the market, excepting
ST. NICHOLAS for 1875,
Which, with its magnificent pictures, its two corn-•
plete serials, and its innummerable shorter sto
ries, sketches, poems, fairy tales, rhymes and jin
gles, bits of wisdom, its French, German and
Latin stories—its fun and its puzzles,Jack-in-the
pulpit, the Letter-box, &c., &e., is even more su
perbly attractive.
ST. NICHOLAS for 1874 and 1875, 4
Vols.
For the convenience of libraries, and because
many children find the two large volumes for '74
and '75 rather bulky to handle, we have had
these twenty-four numbers bound in FOUR ELE
GANT VOLUMES, and inclosed in a neat box,
under th.) general title of
THE ST NICHOLAS LIBRARY,
These four volumes are sold for SS, being only
two dollars a volume—a beautiful awl valuable
Christmas present for an entire family of young
folks.
THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE says: "In the
avalanche of immoral literature that threatens
the children, some strong, vitally wholesome, and
really attractive magazine is required for them,
and St. Nicholas has reached a higher platform,
and commands for this service wider resources in
art and letters, than any of its predecessors or
contemporaries."
THE SUNDAY—SCHOOL TIMES says: "A
cleaner, purer, more trustworthy periodical for
children, cannot be named. The magazine does
not claim to be religious, but it is on the side of
all that is true and good, from beginning to end."
The religious press all over the country heartily
commends Sr. NicuoLAs, and virtually echoes the
opinion of the New York Cliciwion Union, that it
is" A DELIGHTFUL :MAGAZINE FOR ALL
CHILDREN BETWEEN FIVE AND EIGHTY
SEVEN."
ST. NICUOLAS FOR 187 G
Promises even greater attractions than the pre?,
vious volumes. A strong tea tun, of the new vol
ume is an AMERICAN SERIAL SKOiIY,
"THE BOY EMIGRANTS," BY NOAH
BROOKP,
Giving the adventures of a party of boys on their
long journey acrosf the plains, with a vivid por
traiture of their LIFE IN CALIFORNIA DUR
ING THE DAYS OF THE GOLD-FEVER. Mr.
Brooks brings to this work, in addition to his well
known literary gifts, a thorough familiarity with
the features of that wild country and the people
then flocking toward it: What he has to say of
them is pervaded with a subtle and intense savor
of reality that enables the reader to follow the
characters in their adventures with a positive
sense of companionship. The contagion of the
"gold-fever ;" the great difficulties and perils
which beleaguered their journey across the plains
and mountains, and finally the adventurous, half
civilized, and yet, in a certain rude way, poetic
life in the mines of California, are all described
with wonderful truthfulness and skill. Add to
this the elevated tone pervading the work, and the
irresistible attraction wnich such a narrative pos
sesses for boys, the value of this stirring, healthy
serial becomes evident.
There is to be another and shorter serial, begin
ning in January and running through three num
bers :
"JON OF ICELAND," BY BAYARD
TAYLOR.
A delightful vivid story of an Icelandic boy's
career, full of in.•idents, which would happen in
no other country, and graphically touching upon
the customs, life, and general features of that
strange land.

Cattle Powder.
ESTABLISHED, IN 1850.
Sales in the past year over FIVE TONS PER
MONTH, in packages of 12 ounces each !
RETAIL for 25 cents ; FIVE packs fur $l..
This "CATTLE POWDER" has proved a sure
preqcntive and a certain cure for
Chicken Cholera or Gaps.
I have received, unsolicited, any amount of evi
dence from FARMERS and others, who used it
and thereby saved their Poultry Stock from the
disease and death. All I ask is, TRY IT, save
your Stock, and be convinced; costs but little.
My Powder has always given full satisfaction
as a moat reliable cure in all diseases of HORSES,
CATTLE, HOGS and SHEEP. It will keep them
thrifty and healthy ; the Cow will yield 21 per
cent. more butter and milk ; Cattle and Hogs will
gain in fattening in the same proportion.
Ask for this Powder at your nearest Store, or
address me fur a pamphlet, with full particulars.
