THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE.
(Continued from first page - )
comprising 1,126 commissioned officers and
13,566 enlisted men. In 1879, the State
constitutes one division, divided into bye
brigades, aggregating one hundred and
forty companies of infantry, five cavalry
companies, and four batteries of artillery.
The muster roll of the Guard now num
bers 608 commissioned officers, and 8,200
non commissioned officers and men.
The law of 1878, under which the re
organization has been made, provided for
the expenditure of the gratuity of the
State in fatigue uniforms and equipments,
until every organization was fully equipped
for active service. Under this provision,
those of the troops, who were without uni
forms and equipments acceptable to the
Adjutant General, were supplied, during
the year, with State uniforms, of the army
pattern and standard. The soldierly ap
pearanoe and solidity of the Guard, when
assembled for inspection or parade, were
highly satisfactory to its members and its
friends.
Steps arc now being taken to supply the
troops with great coats, the officers and
men having with commendable spirit,
given the pay allowed for attendance at the
annual inspection, for that purpose. In
stead of extending the equipment over a
number of years, and taking the cost from
the annual gratuities, it would be more
satisfaetorty if the state would appropriate,
in fall, the sum necessary to equip the
troops for active service. The amount is
comparatively small, and the advance will
be amply repaid in the readiness of the
guard for active and continuous duty, and
its increased spirit, from a sense of efficien
cy and appreciation of a substantial reco
nition of its services and worth.
GEOLOGICAL' SURVEY.
The report of progress of the Board of
Commissioners of the Second Geological
Survey of Pennsylvania will be laid before
you. The present appropriation will carry
them to the end of 1879, and an additional
appropriation of $lOO,OOO for 1880 and
1801.-kiil. be required to complete the work.
.A.'extifique of the large collection of books
and specimens made by the surveyors dur
ing the progress of the work has been pub
lished, and I again invite your attention to
the necessity of providing for the exhibi
tion and preservation of thesa valuable
scientific objects. The survey has already
cost the State much more than original es
mates, but its thorough prosecution to the
end will give us a final survey, upon the
accuracy of which the business enterprise
and scientific research of future ages can
confidently rely. I shall therefore make
no apology, even in the present state of our
finances, for recommending the appropria
tions necessary to complete the survey and
publish and preserve its results.
I have been furnished with an advanced
copy of the memorial of the Engineers'
Club of Philadelphia, and citizens of Penn
sylvania, to your honorable bodies, praying
for State co-operation with the United
States Coast Survey, in the geodetic sur
vey of the State, authorized by act of Con
gress in 1871. Under this law, work was
commenced in Pennsylvania in 1875, but
owing to the limited appropriations which
the General Government is able to divide
pro rata amongst the many States now
conducting surveys, the work progresses
very slowly, and may occupy twenty or
thirty years. The amount of State aid
ni
need d . for surveying, draughting, and
pulir *sg, maps, etc., is estimated at
tw Isle •tbnpand dollars annually for
fink irk - `4lthough the opportunity is
oai .tat some Altura time it may be
WA Ulale" advantage of, I cannot per
suade myself that at the present time it
would be prudent to undertake it on so ex
tensive a scale. But I think it would be
well to assist the United States Coast Sur
vey with the small annual appropriation of
three - thousand dollars asked for in the
interest of the Second Geological . Survey
and the Land Department of the Offices of
latera.al_Affairs, to determine certain im

sole - Mae, has been carried on at the cost
of the State of New York, as the appro
priation to meet the portion of the ex
penses properly- fallipg upon Pennsylvania
failed in the laat Legislature for want of
time. The sum of six thousand dollars
will be required of Pennsylvania to finish
the work and equalize the expenditures of
the two States.
The full report of this commission, and
also of the one appointed under the act of
May 18, 1878, to act in Conjunction with
similar commissions from the States of
Ohilud, West Virginia, to retrace the
bowl rigs between the three States, and
replace the monuments thereon, have been
sent to the Secretary of Internal Affairs,
accordiug tochlaw, and. are transmitted with
the reports of that officer.
PENNSYLVANIA ARCHIVES
The publication of tho second series of
Pennsylvania Archives has been carried
forward to the complement of seven vol
umes, to which it was restricted by the act
of March 23, 1877. The original act of
May 13, 1874, provided for the publication
of all the papers of historical value relating
to the period of the Revolution, the
"whisky insurrection," and the war of
1812. Two volumes, containing the rolls
and records of the Pennsylvania line and
militia of the Revolution, upon which
much time and labor has been expended
and, in interest, perhaps more important
than any of the volumes thus published,
together with about two volumes of mar
riage records, fully prepared, remain in
manuscript, while the documents relating
to the war of 1812, have not been reached.
In view of the importance of this material,
which the common misfortune of fire might
place beyond recovery, as in the case of
the records of the Revolution at Washing
ton, I would recommend the repeal of the
restriction as to the number of volumes,
in order that the contemplated publication
may be completed under the present ed
itorfa, who will supervise it, without further
charge.
FREIGHT DISCRIMINATION,
The discussion of freight discrimination
occupied a prominent place in the ques
tions of the year. The producers' me
morial, of August 16, 1878, charged, in
the most specific manner, that the railroad
companies had allowed the Standard Oil
Company unlawful drawbacks and rebates
in freight charges denied to others. The
railroad authorities denied that the com
panies had made unlawful discriminations.
They did not deny the fact, but asserted
its legality. It is, therefore, a question of
law, and as such, can only be settled in
the courts. The only preliminary ques
tions arisir , is the propriety of the State,
instead of individuals, making the issue.
The State desires to establish, for the
mutual relation of her great producing and
transporting industries, a principle of law.
The State alone can fix that principle in
the broad and general way that will here
after govern the policy of those industries.
Individuals can only laboriously and ex
pensively, one by one, secure individual
rights; the State can at once, by this pro
ceeding, make efficacious the seventh sec
tion of Article XVII of the constitution,
and establish the just and legal basis of
equal and open transportation. It is to
the interests of all the northwestern and
western sections of the State, of merchants
and business men everywhere, and of im
mense importance to Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh, as exporting ports, that the
yield of Pennsylvania's soil, and the fruits
of Pennsylvania's labor should have free
and fair transportation to all points of the
State, and to the seaboard. It is to the
interests of the stockholders of the rail
road, and of deeper interest to the people
of Pennsylvania, that the bitter and grow
ing predjuice against transporting corpo
rations should be proved to be unfounded
and unjust, or the causes thereof be speed
ily and effectually removed.
I have long been convinced that the
question of general government supervision
of inter-state and overland commerce is
pressing upon us, and, while I did not
think it my duty to interfere, pending the
attempt of the parties to settle their rela
tions by mutual agreement, or by legisla
tion, I have not hesitated to promptly take
advantage of the first appeal to the Execu
tive, to secur if possible, an authoritative
and binding declaration by the highest
judicial tribunal of the State, of the duties
and obligations of corporations, under the
provisions of the Constitution.
MISCELLANEOUS.
Among the numerous subjects that will
oceupy your attention, I beg leave to
briefly emphasize a few that appear of more
than ordinary importance.
The establishment of a State Board of
Health was urged in the message of 1877,
and briefly referred to in that of last year.
The medical s)ciety of the State of Penn
sylvania will again bring the matter to the
attention of the Legislature. The experi
ence of the past year has shown the desira
bleness of such a department to improve
the hygienic condition of the pelvic and
insure against epidemics. Second only to
its police duties, if not, indeed, a part of
them, is the obligation of government to
enforce the sanitary regulations necessary
for the healthfulness of society. I hope
you will not fail to give the bill presented
a favorably consideration.
Complaints are frequently made at the
office of the Secretary of the Common
wealth by judges, of the inadequacy of the
bonds for recorders of deeds. As fixed in
1877, they are wholly dkprop)rtionate to
the present business of the offices. They
should he increased to correspond with the
value of the present records, and with the
bonds of the other county officers.
The current wants of the State Library
absorb the greater part of the usual appro
priation, leaving very little for the pur
chase of valuable matter or the preparation
for reference and preservation of original
manuscripts. The collection of documents,
pamphlets, books, paper files, maps and
manuscripts concerning the history of
Pennsylvania, is very incomplete. With
in a short time many valuable things re
lating to the early history of the Common
wealth were in the market, but the Libra
rim] had no appropriation with which to
buy them. An additional appropriation
ought to be given to the Librarian, with
discretion to purchase such valuable and
rare literary materials as may be offered
from time to time to complete the record
of' the Library. •
The Fish Commissioners have been very
successful in introducing the sea salmon
into the Delaware and Susquehanna rivers.
and have filled our streams with a plenti
ful supply of black bass and brook trout.
The attempt to propagate the California
salmon also promises well, and the results
of the year have been to finally prove the
feasibility of stocking the waters of the
State with a constant and abundant sup
ply of the best food fishes. Some additional
legislative support may be necessary to en
able the Commissioners to carry on and
protect their labors, which will revive a
profitable industry, and furnish the peo
ple a cheap and acceptable article of fool
IN MEMORIAM
The country has suffered the loss, du•
ring the year, of three distinguished Penn
sylvanians. On the twenty-first day of
August, in the thirty fourth year of his
age, Henry Armitt Brown died at Phila
delphia. He belonged to public life only
in the higher sense of simple citizenship,
for he held no office, except the high posi
tion of a leader of men, and wielded no
authority except the noble influence of a
pure and strong life. At the time of his
death he had just completed the masterly
orations on Revolutionary events. upon
which his reputation as a scholar and ora
tor will eventually rest after the personal
recollections of the gentleman have faded
into tradition.
On the nineteenth day of December, in
the fifty-fourth year of his age, Bayard
Taylor died at Berlin. Although he had
filled several positions abroad, he was best
known to the public as a traveler, a jour
nalist, and a man of letters. His fame
rests upon numerous works of travel, of
fiction, and of poetry, and translations, the
fruits of an exceedingly busy life. His ap
pointment as Minister to Germany was re
ceived with general satisfaction, and his
death is regarded as a public misfortune
The nation loses one cf its most trust
worthy and acceptable representatives, and
Pennsylvania one of her most distinguish
ed citizens.
To these words in remembrance of the
younger sons of Pennsylvania, I am called
to add the memorial of the venerable citi
zen of its metropolis, the State and the
country. Morton M'Michael died at Phil
adelphia, on the sixth of Januiry, 1879,
at the age of seventy one. An actor in
his country's history for half a century ;
the friend and associate of Webster and
Clay of one generation, and of Lincoln
and Grant of another, e filled the circle
of fullest citizenship. When office came
within the sphere of his duties, he filled it
with signal ability and scrupulous fidelity,
and lived as a private citizen, one of those
exceptional lives, that without illustrious
deeds, by the quiet, unlabored and perfect
performance of every duty make men great
With such men, full of years and honors,
death itself seems almost like the perform
ance of a sacred duty.
CONCLUSION
Before your session closes I shall have
resigned the trusts committed to my -care.
I think it proper to extend to the peop!e,
through their chosen representatives, my
thanks for their confidence and support,
and my earnest desire for the welfare of
the State. Containing within its borders
all the elements of empire and civilization.
we may justly look forward to the time
when its cities will be the Sheffields and
Birminghaws of the Western Hemisphere,
and the Delaware rival the Clyde. But
I shall not detain you by any eulogium
upon Pennsylvania, or indulge in any
speculations concerning the future. To
day it pours over a continent its treasures
of coal and iron, of oil and lumber. I be
lieve its true progress lies in extending its
industries and educating its laborers. As
said last year, the great warfare of the
nineteenth century is industrial warfare.
In this contest Pennsylvania will enter
with unrivaled resources, and wise and
liberal legislation ought to give an army
of skilled workmen that will win a noble
victory. That destiny this generation may
not realize, but it is for us to lay its broad
foundations in the varied products of its
soil, and in the intelligence and virtues of
its people. With that end in view, let us
invoke the assistance of the same power
that has guided Pennsylvania to its present
high position, to enable us to mould its
social relations in accordance with His im
mutable laws, and hand the noble Com
monwealth to our successors with a higher
civilization and a yet happier people.

OUR MINISTER'S WIFE
LOUISVILLE, KY., Feb. 16, 1877
MR. 11. R. STEVENS.
Dear Sir,—Three years ago I was suffering terribly
with Inflammatory Rheumatism. Our minister's wife
advised me to take VEGETIN E. After taking one bottle, I
was entirely relieved. This year, feeling a return of the
disease, I again commenced taking it, and ant being ben
efitted greatly. It also greatly improves my digestion.
Respectfully,

SAFE AND SURE
MR. 11. It. STEVENS.
In 1872 your VEOF.TINE was recommended to me, and
yielding to the persuasions of a friend, I consented to try
it. At the time I was suffering from general debility and
nervous prostration, superinduced by overwork and ir
regular habits. Its wonderful strengthening and cura
tive properties seemed to affect my debilitated system
from the first dose ; and under its persistent use I rapidly
recovered, gaining more than usual health and good feel
ing. Since then I have not hesitated to give VEOETTNE
my most unqualified indorsement, as being a safe, sure
and powerful agent in promoting health and restoring
the wasted system to new life and energy. VEGETINE is
the only medicine I use; and as long as I live I never
expect to find a better.

The foil swing letter from Rev. G. W. Mansfield, for

every one who reads his letter of the wonderful curative
qualities of VEOETINE as a thorough cleanser and purifier
of the blood.
I.IYDE PARK, MASS., Feb. 15, IS7B.
Ma H. R. STEVENS.
brear Sir,—About ten years ago my health failed
through the depleting effects of dyspepsia ; nearly a year
later I was attacked by typhoid-fever in its worst form.
It settled in my back, and took the form of a large deep
seated &bee., which was fifteen months in gathering. I
had two surgical operations by the best skill in the
State, hit received no p'rntanent cure. I suffered
great pain at times, I was constantly weaked by a pro
fuse discharge. I also lost small pieces of bone at differ
ent times.
Matters ran on thus about seven years, till May, 1874.
when a friend recommended me to go to your office, and
talk with you of the virtue of VEGETINE. I did so, and by
your kindness passed through your manufactory, noting
the ingredients, &c., by which your remedy Is produced.
By what 1 saw - and heard I gained some confidence in
VEGETINE.
I commenced it soon after, but felt worse from its ef
fects ; still I persevered, and soon felt it was benefiting
me in other respects. Yet I odd not see the results I de
sired till I had taken it faithfully for a little more than a
year, when the difficulty in the back was cured ; and for
nine months I have enjoyed the beet of health.
I have in that time gained twenty-five pounds of flesh,
being heavier than ever before in. my life, and I was
never more able to perform labor than now.
During the past few weeks I had a scrofulous swelling
as large as my fist gather on another part of my body.
I took VEurriNs faithfully, and it removed it level with
the surface in a mouth. I .hink I shou'd have been
cured of my main trouble sooner if I had taken larger
doses, after having become accustomed to its effects.
Let your patrons troubled with scrofula or kidney di
sease understand that it takes time to cure chronic di
seases; and, if they will patiently take VEGETINE, it Will,
in my judgment, cure them.
With great obligations, I am
Yours very truly.

CLOAKS.
Our success in filling the wants of those wanting an outside covering is not one of luck, ba of
study, constant inquiry and long experience in the making as well as selling these garments. No
part of our house requires such untiring watchfulness, no kind of merchandise is No worthless when
out of style as a cloak—no department is more active in the season of selling.
The materials used this season are Diagonals, in various widths, Matelasse, Fur Black Beavers,
Silk Matelasses and Plain Silks; also, a rough-faced material called Camel's Hair, which is new, but
not very pleasing to the eye.
The articles used for Trimmings are Velvet, Gros Grain, Grass Fringe, Fancy Gimps and Braids.
As to shapes, the new things are of the Mantle order, but with a sleeve much more comfortable and
yielding than garments of this character have been heretofore; the general effect, too, is more grace
ful and pleasing. The Sacque, though, retains its old popularity, and is bound to be the leader with
the majority. In shape it differs but little from last season.
CHILDREN'S CLOAKS, from the smallest size up, have our best attention. They are made of
Blue and Brown Beaver, Matelasse and Fancy Cloths, and cost from $4.50 upward.
SHAWLS.
The great variety of styles, materials, colors and weights wanted in a Shawl for different season s
and occasions, requires a most extensive stock to be able , o suit even a majority of eoneumere. We
are in condition now to suit more than a majority, having the greatest collection of staples, as well as
novelties, in this line ever shown in Philadelphia—including even the rich fabrics of India, where
years are o:ten occupied in producing one Shawl.
No department has received more personal attention than the Shawls, the buyer having visited
Europe during the summer, and not only bought very largely of ready-made, but ordered made many
styles which could not be procured otherwise. Those having a taste for the novel as well as beauti
ful in Shawl's, should look through our collection.
