From Harrisburg..
Governor 'Geary has, selected Mr. B.
Brewster for Attorney General, 'and'
C9l. F. Jordan for Seeretary Of the Com
monwealth. These - are excellent
:ap
pointments,e so far as 'qualifications are
concerned. But we doubt whether there
is ‘,.in them a
.proper recognition of
politicikservices, especially in' the first.
Mr. Brewster is an excellent lawyer, but
wehaveyettolearn that he has distinguish
ed himself as an advocate of those prin
ciples-for whielcthe -Union —Republican
party has risked so much. We would
not advocate the appointment of n, man
to the position of legal atlVisor of — the
'Governor on account of'political services
alone; but we think legal talent and an
adherer7ce to sound political doctrines
might be combined ix one and the same
There is a very strong probability that
Simon Cameron will - be' elected United
States Senator, and while it-will be ad
mitted on' all hands; that he has been of
great service to the Republican -party,
the question may be asked, does he rep
resent-the wishes" of the great mass of
the Republicans of rennsylVania ? So
far as Lancaster county is concerned,
there appears to 'be hilt one sentiment,
and that is in, favor of the "old radical,"
Thaddeus Stevens. Outside - of the,
county there is no question that Governor
Curtin is by far the choice of the People.
Why then should not public sentiment
enter into oontest for this important
post ? Possibly our Senators and_ rep
rdsentatives could ansWer this question.
It can hardly be supposed that green
backs has anything to do with it, and
yet they niay.
The following is a Correct' list - of the
members elect of the next Legislature,
including.the Senators holding
The political changes are—General Mc-
Candless (Dem.) in place of Nichols
(Rep.) in the first Senatorial district,and
Col. Taylor (Rep.) in plaice of Hopkins
(Dem.) in the 26th district._ The
Senate is thus'left as it stood last year
21 Republicans and 12 Democrats. In
the House the Democrats - gained two in
Philadelphia,in the 2d and sth districts;
one io 'Adams, and one in Union, where
Marshall (Repl) . was beaten by Rouch

have thus - gained four 'members in the

I to, he'Ler,;. tire 4,Penrcaylvoin.,. pre
ieitte,-e, veiataiesting r and , igreeable •
view of.thel finances .of 'the Common
wealth, footing up an improvement of
$5,612,041:47, in the condition of the
Treasury since 1861. In that year the
excess•of liabilities over assets was $28,-
148,060.36, and on the 30th of Novem
ber, 1866, it was $22,536,018 80. The
total amount in the Treasury during the
last fiscal veer was $8,203,336.68, and
during the same period - the payments
were $6,462,303.41; leaving a
_balance
of $1,741,033.27 .The total amount of
the ,public debt December - I,' 1866, was
$35,622,052.16, a reduction .of $2,854,-
206.90 since December 1, 1865, when it
stood $38,476,258.06.' During and since
the war the .revenues of the common-
I wealth , haVe exceeded the ordinary 'ex
penditures, $10,612,000, which would
have all been applied to the' payment of
the debt of the State but for the extra
ordinary expenses incident to the -war.
The Governor estimates that the entire
debt of the State can be paid within
fifteen 'years. $23,108,626.24 of the
debt 'being overdue, the Governor -re
commends a new loan for its redemption.
Much space has been devoted by the
Governor, to
. commending the ratification
of the proposed amendment to the na
tional Constitution. He does this in a
temperate and judicious tone, discussing
all the points_briefiv, and dwelling upon
tho , necessity of these measures., Pass
ing then to the affairs of the State, he
says, that nearly •three thousand of the
destitute children of the brave soldiers
of Pennsylvania in the late war, who
perished :during• the conflict, are now
comfortably provided for and educated.
'He recommends::.tbat authority be given
to the State' Superintendent of Common
Schools to employ 'an 'agent' for a short
time to•ascertain the.number of the or
phans of colored soldiers, their claims to
attention,and-to provide schools for them.
He also recommefids that provision be
made for the support of poor, destitute
and maimed soldiers of Pennsylvania,
until the.national government shall sup
ply the deficiency.
. . .
.
, He recommends A new jury law, 'by
which jury commissioners shall be' elect
ed in each county,' in 'the same manner
that inspectors of election are now, so as
to obviate the evil, of partisanship at
present prevailing.. He - urges the pas-,
sage of general laws to relieve the' LegiS,
!attire of the immense mass of special
legislation, and especially a general rail
road law: The conclusion of the message

Letter from Illinois.
Mn. EDITOII.---I set down to give you a
few "jottings by the way" of men, and
things in this locality ; and, Sor want of a
more interesting'topic, a few observations
on modern EGvTP. On leaving Columbia
I followed the "Star of Empire" westward
until reaching Odin, at the intersection of
the Ohio and Mississippi Rail Road with
the Illinois Central, where I stopped a few
days, and took a survey of the country for
twenty-five - or thirty miles around- 2 thence:
,down the Illinois Central, stopping -oc
casionally ncla3r or two, to the " jumping
off place," Cairo.- Perhaps Egypt suggests
to you a country abounding in' towering
pyramids and "ruins gray," evidencing a
high and past civilization ; of lost arts,
classielore, and mummied kings in their
sarcophagy, ~the hieroglyphics on which
puzzle, the antiquarian to decipher 7 -if so,
permit me to undeceive you at .once, as
nothing can be more unlike its ancient
patronymic, than modern. Egypt. The
only simillarity 'between them being an
idenity of names of towns, and a common
liability to extraordinary floods. , When
the Ohio and Mississippi rivers rise simul
taneously, the,-" meeting of the waters" at
Cairo, sometimes "causes . the former to
reach the eXtraordinary heighth ef'forty
five feet, auguring a "fever,'-aagcr", season
to the amphibious' denizens along its banks,
Half of whom-are, or ought to be, web-foot
ed, to enjoy the extraordinary water priv
ileges they possess. By tracing tho 37th
parallel of north latitude, you will dis-
Cover
,Cairo, to lie about' 3° south Of you—
an adyantage of climate that;hitherto, illy
.compensated for , our. unfortunate geogra
phical position—being between two slave
States, Kentucky "and Missouri,- and con
sequently, the refuge of all fugitive slaves
from either. This inflicted upon the coun
try all the evils of slavery,' without-any of
its advantages. , - -
The old settlers, -principally from the
adjoining slave States, with all their anti
pathies to. labor, and the
,opportunities to
engage in the, genial pursuit • of running
I -down a fugitive; or occasienally - ,kidnap-*
ping a negrn, made that tho business of
their lives, to procure sufficient " hog and
hominy" to keep soul and body together;
the transition from the social degradation
of, "poor white trash" in the South, to
anything- in the descending scale of .hu
mdf?ity, - however ineffably mean, being
an easy and natural one. In that state of
things, pit - gress and 'improvement were
outnif the question, the country little more
than - a howling wilderness, ,and the in
habitants, primitive in their customs and
wants, had no higher ambition than to
satisfy their animal appetites. A. people_
thus ignorant, degraded, and demoralized,
were fit tools for demagogues; upon whom
to practice their machinations successfully,
as the almost unanimous pro-slavery vote
in this region, hitherto too painfully at
. tests. That was Egypt prior to, the war,
but the - war wrought wonders While it
lasted— " a change came,O'or 'the spirit of
their dreams" before peace was declared.
And although secession sympathizers
were rampant and defiant during the first
two' years; they were soon- taught better
manners by the large-bodies of troops in
transitu South, and' their- blatant bellaw
ings softened to the "gentle roar of suck
ing doves." Thousands of men passing
through this country during the war, en
amored of its genial climate and_ produc
tive soil, have returned and purchased
lands, and are clearing. With this immi
gration of Northern thrift and enterprise,
came those concomitants of civilization;
Church and school-houses ; and last, not,
least, sound Repahliran votes.
These are innovations not to be endured
by the old ",Elni-eaters" of the country,
many of whom have taken their exodus to
old Katintv,clc and .11ficr'y- T left their court-.
try for their country's good. More • land
Las been- cleared - in this country in 'the
last two years; than in the thirty previous
—principally, small tracts for orchards 951
gardens—though not to the exclusion of
large - farms that are being opened—the
soil being specially-adapted to early fruits
'and vegetables, 'which mature from three
to four weeks-earlier than at St. Louis or
Chicago.
Politically, this Congressional district
has been redeemed from the cimmerian
darkness that overhung it like a pall, and
sends a staunch Republican to Congress,
Gen'l Ranm, by over 600 majority. Al
though I have witnessed many phases of
popular excitement in the last twenty
years, I never saw a more exciting or an : .
gry contest than the last canvass in this
district. Egypt, thus redeemed, like other
parts of the State, is no longer a stench in
the nostrils of patriotism or loyalty.
Our facilities for transportation by the
Ohio river, a& Ohio, Missouri and Illinois
Central Rail Roads, are good as far as
they go, br tare inadequate to the increas
ing commerce of the country. The con
templated Illinois Southern Rail Road,
(broad gauge), running from Vincennes,
Ind., to Cairo, Will open up a large extent
of fertile country, anct increase our facili
ties for travel and transportation ; and,
when conipletEd, will afford a thorough
route from Cairo to New York, without
change of cars, on troad gauge. This road
is certain to be built—it is already charter

the,control of the Atlantic & Mississippi
