commend tho report of the executive

furl. if'oiir neoiile in the field and hos-
pital, or oftho names and services, at
nil timcfl, of our volunteer surgeons,
when called to assist in tho hospital
or on the battle lield ; nor is it possi-
bio to do justice to the many patriotic
Christian men who were always ready
to respond when summoned to the ex -
rrciso of act of humanity and
olcnce.
Our nrmies wcro sustained and
fctrengthened in the field by the pa-
tnotic devotion ol their IrienUs at
home; and wc can never render full
justice to tho heaven-directed, patri
otic, Christian benevolence of the wo
men of the State.
During the war I had occasion,
from time to time, to communicate
freely with the Legislature on subjects
bearing upon the interests of the men
representing the State in Jiho armies
of the Republic.
It is with a sense of unfeigned grat
itude that I acknowledge how cheer
fully and promptly the Legislature
und tho people acted upon my sug
gestions, whether for the support of
the government, the enlistment and
organization ol troops, or for the com
fort of our people already in tho field.
Without this generous confidence
and liberal support, the labors of the
Executive would havo been in vain ;
the treasure that has been expended
would havo been wasted, precious
lives lost would have been an empty
sacrifice, the bruised hearts of kindred
friends would havo been without so
lace ; the strong men, whose health
Las been broken and whose bodies
have beon mai mod would have been
monuments of heroism wastod, and
the honor of this great Common wealth
would have boon degraded amidst the
fallen ruins of tho institutions of the
Republic.
Tho roport oftho Hon. Thomas II.
Burrows, shows the gratifying result,
under his activo management, ol the
.lystom adopted by tho State, for the
maintenance and eJucaliou ol tno or
phans of our solditrs. His report ex
hibits the fact, that 1,242 orphans are
now actually admitted to the schools,
and that l.blG applications in all have
been allowed, and orders issued for
their admission, manyof whom have
been admitted since his report. It
will also bo seen, that the largest ap
propriation, that ever will bo required,
will be for this and the two ensuing
years, and that then the amount will
bo gradually reduced. I have hereto
fore commended this charity to you,
and I deem it unnecessary to add
another word, in asking a continua
tion of an appropriation, w hich is to
provido for and educate the best bbod
of the State, and Bupport tho living
legacies which have been bequeathed
ns by tho men who laid down their
lives" for tho country. When we re

partment is prepared to make answer
Edwin M. Stanton,
Secretary of War.
When Congress met, the Executive
of the United States did not recom
mend t'io passage of tho necessary
act. I have understood that the sub
ject was willed to the attention oftho
proper committee, by the Secretary of
War, but, as tho President did not
send a message explaining the circum
stances of the case, tho appropriation
failed, as tho members of Congress
had thus no means of explaining to
their constituents tho difference bo
tween this case (which was in sub
stance a loan to tho United States,
upon the pledge of the Executive fol
ks repayment,) and the case of the
voluntary expenditure of money for
military purposes by Pennsylvania
and most oftho other States.
I will add, that the men eamo into
tho scrvico for tho emergency only,
on the faith that thoy should bo dis
charged as soon as, in my judgement,
the emergency should havo ceased.
The emergency ceased immediately
after the battle of Gettysburg, which
i ..p r..i.. itiiv? .
commenced on too ist w u.j , ,
yet the men, against my urgent
repeated remonstrances, e o Ti
the servieo lontr afterward and used
by the United States for various pur
poses. The last of them were not dis
charged till in September.
I recommend that tho Legislature
adopt measures to bring the subject
agaiu before Congress, and obtain re
payment of this sum, amounting to
?(i7l,4TG,4.1,wilh interest on tho same,
which the General Government liusj
thus far so unwarrantably withheld.
Great injustice has . boon dono to
private soldiers who w ent into service
under tho provisions of the act of Con
gress, by refusing to pay them tho
full bounties offered by tho terms of
that act. Tho following letter, which
I addressed to tho Secretary of War,
sufficiently explains tho position of
this atrair :

to her sister States that they unite
with her in establishing a cemetery
for our soldiers who fell at Antietam.
I herewith transmit copies of the
Maryland statutea, and other docu
ments on this subject, and recommend
tho passage of an act heartily accept
ing the proposition of the State of
Maryland. All tho States having
promptly and generously responded
to our proposition to have a cemetery
at Gettysburg, it would seem proper
that we should reciprocate, and unite
in this. Tho duty is mado moro sa
cred when we remember that moro of
Pennsylvania's sons fell in that battle
than ihoiieofany other State.
Tho report of the Stato agent at
Washington, herewith transmitted,
shows that under his efficient manage
ment the claims of our soldiers are
promptly examined and paid. Every
etfort lias been mado to appriso our
ollicers and men that their claims will
be collected by tho Stato agent, (Col.
Jordan,) without expense to them;

Strange Tactics.
The radical members of Congress,
seem to follow the advice of Thad.
Stevens, given to his party friends,
unny years ago -inrow eonseiunco
to tho devil, and sustain your party."
It would seem even at this day of al
leged moral improvement, that to be
como a first class Abolitionist, or a
full fledged loyalist an individual is
compelled to do now, that w hich he
was ordered to do thirty years ago
"throw 'conscience to tho devil," in
order to bo admitted to full member
ship in the party "governed and con
trolled by grand moral ideas." Tho
tactics of the leaders of tho dis
union party in Congress, aro indeed,
hard to understand. They profess to
be in favor of an undivided Union;
yet they aro now doing more to ac
complish separation and dis-union, and
are more revolutionary, in their move
ments, than Jeff Davis, and his Con
federates in their raids upon tho Con
stitution, w ho were open and manful in
their efforts. They avowed thoir in
tentions publicly to tho world, so that
all understood what thoy were at.
They did not proclaim one dogma and
practice another, in order to deceive
tho masses ; but were straight forward
in every movement they made, until
they surrendered, anjj to this very
hour tho world knows what they are
doing. But how different the conduct
of the radical leaders in tho North;
while they profess great attachment
and love for tho Union, they aro prac
ticing every devico and means to.
change tho organic law of the nation,
and in this way revolutionize the
government, and land us as a nation,
on the rock bound coast of a central
despotism. Tho wholo energies of
this clasps of politicians seems to bo, to
agitato and keep open tho breaches
made betweon tho two sections of our
country, during the progress of the
late war. This of itself, ought to be
enough to politically damn, nil pub
lic or priva'.o citizen, that dedicates
himself to such mean and unholy work.
