THE MILITIA.
The primary function of the State is to pre
serve the peace and guarantee, under the laws,
the rightisef persons and property. Your at
tentionhell already been called to the necessity
of ..focreasin g and defining the powers of
sheriffs, and you- will also consider the means
of improvlsg the instrument confided to the
Executive:. It has been the constant policy
of the present administration to use the mili
tary power of the State only in the last resort.
Unfortunately the weakness of the local civil
machinery has made that necessity, of late
years. frequent. Five times within seven years
the militia bas been called into one or another
part of the State, and on all former occasions,
its presence alone has been sufficient to restore
order. During the late troubles it also, in the
end, succeeded in removing the embargo upon
the traffic of the State and protecting its citi
zees in the right to work, but, during its short
campaign, eertain deficiences and faults in the
system were made apparent.
There are three inherent defects in a militia
system, which, although they may be reduced
to a minimum, must always exist. In the first
place, devoted chiefly to civil pursuits , a
citizen soldiery must always be more or ess
affected by the sympathies of the community
in whiels'they live. No laws or codes can
prevent the common soldiers from imbibing
the principles and prejudices of the men they
constantly associate with in their daily walks.
In the second place, with comparatively little
time and opportunity for battalion and regi
mental drill, they cannot be expected to have
the steadiness of trained professional soldiers.
Finally, in a volunteer organization, without
pay, the inclinations of the men must always
be considered in the selection of officers ; there
is never the same relative difference between
them as in a regular army, and, on that ac
count, there can never be the same absolute
authority over the rank and file. The only
alternative which will entirely obviate these
defects is a regular standing army, disasso
ciated from the people and trained to arms
alone. Even if it were not unconstitutional
such a force would be unnecessary for the
State, and we must, theretore, exert ourselves
to bring our present militia system to the
greatest possible efficiency.
I have been thus solicitous to present the
conditions of a militia campaign, because the
conduct of our troop during the late crisis has
elicited every variety of criticism, from mild
censure to absolute condemnation, and because
there has grown up in Pennsylvania a spirit
of caviling at its militia, in marked contrast
with the kindly feelings and pride manifested
by other States tolvard their citizen soldiery.
Now, that a temperate review of the facts may
be made, I believe it will not be considered a
partial judgment to say, that the .conduct of
the State troops during the late strike was,
upon the whole, commendable and creditable.
In Pittsburgh, before a final decision, many
considerations must modify our judgment.—
The conditions were not purely military. lt
was not simply a question of preserving a
oody of soldiery intact, of holding a position
or defeating an enemy. Expecting to march
into a friendly community, whose moral sup
port would be cheerfully given them, they en
tereda practically hostile city, were denounced
and threatened by press and people, and at
tacked by men who lurked in the security of
a empu, s tiketic crowd, and used women and
children as shields and instruments. If, under
such circumstances, their action lacked the
energy and severity that purely military canons
would have justified, it cannot be a matter of
surprise. that having so long been accustomed
to peace, they were unable to comprehend at
once the sudden Conditions of war. As it was,
though pot executed with the skilled precision
of reedit troops, the movement accomplished
its parppse, and the failure to move the freight
trains-out of the city, to which more than any
fact the - subsequent burning is attributable,
was the result of the want of co-operation of
an stdeiluttte and competent police, and the
desertion, at the critical moment, of the rail
ronternisloyes. The behavior of the Pitts
burgh troops, in a military sense, is without
excuse; but was it any worse than the defec
tion of officers and men in the regular army,
who, in 1861, deserted their comrades in arms
to join the communities in which they were
bora And bred ? - Such things are not military,
they are pOiticai or social ; and it cannot be
expected.t they should be judged by the
severest military code. It was in fact the
tetnporary excitement of unthinking men,
carried away by the universal clamor around
theism. For that reason, when the burst of
passion was over, I reinstated them ; otherwise
new troops would have had to be enlisted,
while these might be trusted to have a keener
sense of duty, from a desire to retrieve their
fame. In the case of the Philadelphia troops,
although disheartened by being placed on the
defensive, and a part .of the command de
moralized by a too precipitate retreat, the
general steadiness and obedience to orders
under comparative hardships and in real
danger, show them to have been composed of
the best of soldiery material. The failure to
subdue a city in insurrection against the laws
is not to be attributed to the want of courage,
capacity, or fidelity in tire officers and meis;
but to a natural disinclination to take life in
discriminately, and the uncertainty as to how
far, under the laws, they could exercise a
purely military discretion. For myself, I have
every coutdenee in the Guard, and shall not
hesitate, if another occasion should unhappily
arise, to 'rely upon its fidelity and courage.—
The after service of the Guard, when assembled
tozether prepared for active campaigning, was
all that could lie desired. The fact that as
many answered the call for a service likely to
be long and dangerous, as assembled in the
pleasant encampment at the Centennial, is
conclusive proof of the zeal and fidelity of the
the troops.
Recognizing the exact conditions of the
problem we have to solve, I invite your co
operation in making some desirable changes
in the law, to better prepare the troops for
active duty. The standing menace, in any
future disturbance, that the railroads may be
useleiss for transportation, either by the abso
lute refusal of the engineers and crews to man
them, or from tracks being torn up or bridges
burned, makes it necessary to fully equip the
militia for long marches and the field. Except
in one or two instances, the troops, although
in receipt of the regular yearly allowance of
money, were found provided only with uniforms
and arms—all the equipments for active,
contra nous and independent service, blankets,
overcoats, haversacks, canteens, &c., being in
part er wholly wanting. A modification of the
law is required to de ote the fund to purely
military purposes. The Executive has power
by law to reorganize and reduce the National
Guard, in accordance with the recommenda
tion of the Adjutant General, but the action
of the Legislature will be necessary to re
appoetion the annual appropriation among the
organizations, and conifer authority upon the
Adjutant General to issue the allowance in
clothing and equipments or in money, in his
discretion as the service requires.
I -earnestly recommend that pensions be
givertto the widows and families of those of
the militia who fell in the service of the State.
The public welfare demanded the service in
which these men lost their lives, and justice
requires that the State, which profited by the
sacrifice, should contribute to the support of
tisfeewho heve been deprived, for its sake, of
Omit natural inotectota. I trust that, upon
thetcoad principles of common justice, this
reeinenition of devotion to duty will be uni
versally conceded, and that Pennsylvania, who
hos-been so generous to the orphans of her
volunteers, will not he less than just to the
widows and children of her militia.
WESTERN PENITENTIARY.
Last year the Legislature passed an appro•
priation to relieve'the over-crowded condition
of the Eastern Penitentiary. This year it will
be necessary to do the same for the Western
Penitentiary which institution has now eight
hundred and thirty prisoners, with capacity
for only four hundred, or at the most, five
hundred. Two, three...and four convicts are
necessarily confie his, cell, and, during the
hii'Summer months, ibescrowded condition of
thilrison will certainly,engender disease and
dean'. The matter will require your immedi
ate attention, and . it may be necesary to take
prompt action upon seine plan for increasing
the accommodations for the convicts of the
western district, and providing for their safety
and security.
ANTIETAM NATIONAL CEMETERY.
I have the honor to transmit a communica
tion from the Honorable Secretary of War of
the United States, enclosing an act to facilitate
the transfer to the United states of the title to
the Antietam National Cemetery, in the State
of Maryland, now held by that State as trustee
for the several States in interest, and request
ing action upon the same. The United States
has now organized. through the War Depart
ment, mder an act of Congress, a uniform
plan for the care and management of all ceme
teries in which the soldiers who fell in the
late war are buried, and by act of March 2,
1877, Congress authorized the Secretary of

mation received the cemetery has been very
much neglected, and is in financial troubles.
I, therefore, recommend that you pass the act
prepared by the War Department, which, it is
believed, will meet the requirements of the
case, as speedily as possible.
GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.
During 1877, the geological survey of the
State has been carried on with zeal and ener
gy, and the results prepared for publication.
Additional volumes will be issued in January,
and other volumes and many important maps
are in preparation.
For a detailed account of the labors of the
commission, I beg leave to refer you to the
informal report of the State Geologist, furnish
ed at my request, which will be found in the
appendix, herewith transmitted.
NAVIGATION OF THE OHIO RIVER
The necessity of finding a market for the
products of the West led, some years ago, to
the appointment of a Commission from several
States, including Pennsylvania, for the im
provement of the navigation of the Ohio river.
As the work is one of very great interest to
the western section of the State, and indirectly
to the entire Commonwealth, the Commission
have asked the assistance of the Legislature,
so far as to memorialize Congress upon the
subject, and request the appropriation of suf
ficient money to carry out the project, and an
appropriation from the State to pay the ne
cessary expenses of the Comm issioners appoint
ed on behalf of Pennsylvania. The advantages
and importance of the contemplated Improve
ments will fully justify such action on your
part, and I, therefore, recommend that the re
quest of the Commissioners be complied with.
MUNICIPAL COMMISSION.
The Municipal Commission, appointed in.
1876, has completed its labors, and the result
will be laid before you in a well digested act
for the government of the cities of this Com
monwealth. A copy, as finally revised by the
Committee, was forwarded to the Executive
Department, too late for a careful analysis.
The scope, bearing and design of its general
provisions and details will, no doubt, be fully
set forth in the report of the Commission.
Pending that, any discussion would be super
fluous. Whatever may be the final judgment
upon their work, there can be but one opinion
of the painstaking and conszientions manner
in which they have investigated the subject.
BOARD OF PUBLIC CHARITIES,
Although crippled by the failure of its an
nual appropriation at the last session, the
Board of Public Charities has zealously pros
ecuted its important work. The State and
County institutions which_ have been visited
have generally presented a steady progress
toward a higher standard, which is very sat
isfactory, and creditable to the intelligent and
systematic supervision which the Board has
kept-over the public charities of the State aid
to public institutions, and other subjects re
quiring legislative consideration, will be found
in its annual report.
MISCELLANEOUS
I desire to call your attention to several
subjects, which, if of less importance than
those just discussed, are yet of sufficient mo
ment to demand consideration. The present
act fixing the fees of county officers, passed in
1868, has been so often modified by special
provisions that there is no longer any unifor
mity iu its application, and a genera, revision
of the bill is advisable. I think, indeed, that
the salary provision might advantageously be
extended to all the counties of the State whose
population falls below the constitutional lim
itation of one hundred and fifty thousand. The
bonds of Recorders of Deeds of the several
counties, fixed by the act of March 14, 1877, is
now wholly disproportionate to the business
of the office, and I, therefore, recommend that
the security for the faithful performance of
the duties of their office and preservaLion and
delivery of the records be readjusted and in
creased. In connection with the Geological
Survey, it would be well to make arrangements
for a topographical survey of the State, and
the preparation of accurate maps by the Uui
ted States Coast Survey Corps. It is said there
is a great doubt of the correctness of the pres
ent location of the boundaries and points of
the State, and, as the expense would be slight,
and the results trustworthy and valuable, and
probably reimbursed to the State by the sale
of general and local minutely detailed maps of
the highest authority, I think it would be well
to authorize the work. In the year 1867, the
price of the pamphlet laws was raised from
fifty cents to one dollar per volume. Since the
adoption of the new Constitution, the volume
has decreased in size, and much complaint is
made at the charge. I recommend the pas
sage of an act fixing the price, where the vol
ume does not exceed one hundred and fifty
pages, at forty cents ; where it exceeds one
hundred and fifty pages and does not exceed
three hundred pages, at sixty cents; and for
all volumes containing over three hundred
pages, one dollar.
The commissioners appointed to select a
site and build a hospital for the insane for the
south-eastern district of Pennsylvania, have
selected a suitable location, and are about
adopting plans for the grounds and building.
The work will be pushed forward as rapidly
as possible.
In conclusion, I beg leave to renew my
recommendation of last yed, concerning
forests, exemption laws, poll taxes and board
of health ; to preserve the first ; prevent the
waiver of the second ; to equalize the third
and establish the last.
CONCLUSION.

year and confronted by the great questions to

scarcely possible to exaggerate the importance
of your labors. I have endeavored to lay
before you an authentic statement of facts,
and point out wherein, in my judgment, the
machinery of government can be improved.
Whether or not, these views meet your ap
proval, I heartily pledge, in advance, my
cordial co-operation in any legislation that
will give Pennsylvania a atroftg and just
government, which can protect the good
citizen in all his rights, and open the ignorant,
the prejudiced and even the criminal, the way
to refinement and self-supporting industry.
The Divine government that designs tbe salva
tion of the meanest of men should be our
model, and we should earnestly strive to
enlarge the circle of intelligence and prosper
ity until it embraces all classes of the people.

SOUR STOMACH, Heart Burn, Ac.,
This unrivaled Southern Remedy is warranted not to
contain a single particle of Mercury, or any injurious min
eral substance, but is
PURELY VEGETABLE,
containing those Southern Roots and Herbs, which an all
wise Providence has placed in countries where Liver Dis
eases most prevail. It will cure all diseases caused by de
rangement of the Liver and Bowels.
The SYMPTOMS of Liver Complaint are a bitter or bad
taste in the mouth; Pain in the back, sides or joints, oft
en mistaken for Rheumatism; Sour Stomach; Loss of Ap
petite; Bowels alternately costive and lax; Headache;
Loss of memory, with a painful sensation of having failed
to do something which ought to have been done; Debility,
Low Spirits, a thick yellow appearance of the Skin and
Eyes, a dry cough often mistaken for Consumption.
Sometimes many of these symptoms attend the disease,
at others very few ; but the LIVER, the largest organ in
the body, is generally the seat of the disease, and if not
regulated in time, great suffering, wretchedness and death
will ensue.
I can recommend as an efficacious remedy for disease of
the Liver, Heartburn and Dyspepsia, Simmons' Liver
Regulator. LEWIS G. Wu,nia, 1625 Master Street, As
sistant Post Master, Philadelphia.
"We have tested its virtues, personally, and know that
for Dyspepsia, Biliousness, and Throbbing Headache, it is
the best medicine the world ever saw. We have tried 40
other remedies before Simmons' Liver Regulator, but none
of them gave us more than temporary relief ; but the Reg
ulator nut only relieved, but cured us."—En. TELEGRAPH
AND MESSENGER, Macon, Ga.
Nothing is so unpleasant, nothing so common as bad
breath, and in nearly every case it comes from the stom
ach, and can be so easily corrected if you will take Sim
mons' Liver Regulator. Do not neglect so sure a remedy
for this repulsive disorder. It will also improve your ap
petite, complexion and general health.
This distressing affliction occurs most frequently. The
disturbance of the stomach, arising from the imperfectly
digested contents, causes a severe pain in the head,accom
panied with disagreeable nails a, and this constitutes what
is popularlj• known as sick Headache. For prompt relief
