consequence to excite anxiety, while in reality it is the
; ,precursor and companion of runny of the most fatal and
dangerous diseases, ane unless early eradicated' it will
bring the sufferer to an untimely grave. Among the

this alerming symptom. Not anfrequently the diseases
named originate in Constipetion, but take on en inde

that the disorder should receive Immediate attention
whenever it occurs. and no person should neglect to get

complaint, as their timely use will expel the insidious
approaches of disc sae and destroy this dangerous foe to

WILD FLOWER SURMA
It V* been one hundred and one
years since Cinderella died.
That poor Cinderella whom we all
have known in times past, singing at
the. hearth-stone like a. chirping crick
et--she-died at last, so old, sonld, so
old, that no one in alt the world re
membered having seen her in the
freshness of her early prime.
On the night of her death ? a spirit
was seen to,glide around her . cham
ber. Great was the uproar in the
palace,;, 'all were' seized with fright;
not a soul was found so bold as to
watch beside her couch.
Bat while ail 4he
throng of servants
-she was too old to attract-still any
of the race of grandees as courtiers
—declared with affright that
who had had a fairy at her
birth, was likewise visited by a phan
tom upon her death-bed, the Eastern
fairy who watched over her little feet,
pAcning,a,;llAld
.Ohiffpnniere, which
stogy ' behind the bed, carrying ciff
therefrom the wondrous slipper of
Cinderella,.
What, wished she, the fairy of the
Orient, to do with the slipper? . She
knew its magical quality; she knew
that whosoever should be able to put
on this slipper, possessedoiniong oth
er gifts, tho.power of speeding every.
where; Jet it be to China, :to Born, or
to the moon itself, without encoUn :
tering the ordinary fatigues of travel,
and in a shorter time than I consume
in telling you of the fact.
When the fairy of the Orient had
carried away the slipper, and changed
her attire, she went to vex the queen,
by offering to her the slipper in
basket of flowers. But- the queen
had enormous feet.
For a whole year the fairy searched
throughout the world for a foot which
should be fitted by the slipper. At
last she returned in despair at having
lost so much time.
On the slope of a mountain, not
far - from the palace of the queen,
there was a little cottage, sheltered
by a few old oaks. Here lived, all
solitary and alone, a poor maiden,
whcr had neither a father nor a moth
er.
She passed her time in spinning at
the distaff, not tissues of gold and of
silk, but the light flax whieh she gath
ered herself, in its season, with her
beautiful hands, embrowned by the
sun.
She lived alone, all alone, rising
with the.morning light, and retiring
to her slumber when. she had bade
adieu to the sorrowful star which
threw upon her a.glance of friend
ship, from afar beyond the window
panes.
She is seen by no one, unless it be
now and then upon her accustomed
journey to the 'cistern.
. She shrank from the world like an
exiled spirit—but not because she
feared to show her face, for of all the
maidens of the country she was the
most beautiful, with lovely eyes, blue
as the sky, and hair in whose golden
brightness. the sun seemed in forget
fulness, to have left his brightest rays.
Meanwhile, the fairy of the Orient
passed near the cottage almost per
ishing with thirst, and able - to ascend
no farther, for the mountain was steep.
At the threshold of the door, all at
once she saw Susannah, -the Wild
flower. •
This was the name of the poor or
phan girl. She was thus named, be
cause in the spring the mountain was
covered with the bloom of 'wild flow
ers—and she might have been often
seen, all clothed in white, in the midst
of t hose fields of purple.
'My daughter,' said the fairy to her,
'be so good as to give me a drink of
water.'
have no fresh water,' said Skisan.
nab, the Wild flower, 'but if you wish
it, my good woman, .1 will go into the
orchard and will pluck for you the
finest peach that ever was seen to
grow against a garden. wall.'
'By all means,' said the fairy.—
And she went forth into the orchard
loaning upon the arm of Susannah.
'But you have only one peach, my
dear child
'And that one I give to you,' said
the' young girl, holding it to the
mouth of the fairy.
Never since the existence of peach.
es, that is to say since Paradise was
there such an' ambrosial perfume as
that exhaled from the delicious fruit.
The fairy ate the peach with dc.
light, promising to herself that it
should be paid for by its weight in
gold. She did not for an instant sup
pose that she had stopped at this cot
tage to make a trial of the slipper—
bat suddenly she saw for a moment,
as the breeze passed by, the foot of
Susannah, the Wild flower.
It was not a Chinese foot—for it
was exquisitely shaped; it was the
foot of a peri ; the foot of a fairy ;
it was the foot of Cinderella!
Kneeling quickly on the grass, the
fairy of the Orient seized the slipper
with ono hand, and with the other
the foot of Susannah.
The slipper was made for the foot
—rather let us say the foot for the
slipper.
'My darling child,' said the fairy,
'guard Well this slipper. Of one d a y
in each ypar, if you put it on and
think of tne, you wilt obtain every-
thing yeti may desire.' -
The fairy disappeared, after kissing
the forehead of Susannah, who could
scarcely believe either her eyes or her
ears.
gArt all events,' said she to herself,
at least have the slipper.'
And she lialkeds thoughtfully' ihro'
the orehaid.•
'First of 'all/ said she, -'I *ant a
.ribbon to kirot my hair with.'
Scarcely: likd Ste spoken the words,
before a splendid .red ribbon fell gent
ly upon her arm.
She hastened horne . to '.adorn her
hair--,but Nil:k'en:the ribbon was inter

tain b10550i4...; tetter would it' have
been had I wished for a gift of great
er value, a et* for instance, for my
empty stable.' . . . .
And on the initant shesaw through
the window a beautiful brown cow
With spotted; flanks, nibbling gently
green::. '
at the greevine branches which
overrun theKront cottage. Susannah
went fortoo receive her guest. It
was the finest cow in all the world.
After alloWing her mistress to put
her neck, She marched along unat
tended right into the stable.
'Now that I - have a cow,' said Su
-4
Banns!), 'IS mild like to have a fine
field of el' ' 1...0u. the monntajn side.'
'And the - eld of-clover instantly
appeared, all verdant save where the
rose-colored clover blossoms bloomed.
'This is certainly magic,' said she.
'How perfectly happy I. should be—
especially- when' I have bought, little
by little, with the milk of my cow,
some handsome pewter dishes, and
fine painted china, to adorn my cup
board with—besides plenty of good
linen to fill my drawers, and dresses
of all colors to wear to church next
Sunday, and to the next village fete.
And when the court-yard is filled with
ducks, and chickens, and pigeons,—
when I am surrounded by my flocks,
like the rich farmer at the Wolf-wood
—when my lover, Jaques, comes to
seek my doves' nests amid the green
branches—why -I certainly shall be
the very happiest girl in the whole
world t'
Whilst speaking those words she
re-entered the cottage. What was
her astonishment to see her shelves
covered with cups of painted china
and dishes of pewter—her drawers
filled with the finest linen, and with

She ran down to the court-yard, at

the noise of a throng of animals, all
astonished at finding themselves in
each other's company.- She threw
corn to them with a - generous liand.
At the same time she saw approach

ed truant in order - to' : come and whir;
per tender words to her.
'The good fairy said she, falling
upon .her knees in a token of grati.
tude. She lost all the rest of that
precious day in recounting to her lo
ver the visit of the fairy, and all that
had happened thereupon.
Oh! good -h.cavens!' said she, in af
fright, seeing the sun disappear below
the horizon, can make no more
wishes for a whole year!'
A. year passed by.
When the eventful day had at last
arrived. Susannah knelt to implore
. .the friendly-spirit of her mother to
guide her wishes.
Now, Jacques, her lover, was a great
book-worm, and had often told her of
the many countries which composed
the world—of the oasis, of Eldorado,
of those terrestrial Edens which bloom
on the face of the earth.
'Ah I said she, 'How much I wish
to travel.' The words had scarcely
passed her lips, before she was borne
away into space by a multitude °flit
tie winged fairies, attended by rogue
ish imps, who promised to her a
thousand delights hitherto unknown.
She had time neither to loop up her
brown hair, nor to place her shoes up
on hor feet. The' slipper of Cinder
rella had fallen—but the attendant
genii, with vast respect, deposited the
enchanted shoe in the flower of a tu
lip.
First of all she stopped at Paris,
and walked through the splendid
street, marvelling greatly at tho ele
gant dresses and the monuments
which everywhere met her eyes. But
when she had passed an hour at the
Opera, another at the Jardin des
Pla»tes, a third at the Champs-Ely
, sees, and yet another at the Palais
Royal, she discovered that she was
but a stranger among them all. Her
eyes were amused—but her heart was
weary. -
She desired to travel still farther.
Iler enchanted attendants conveyed
her in a whiff, to China itself.-- 7 -
Alas ! even the Parisians were more
attractive than the Chinese. She
wished neither to live in a Porcelain
tower, nor to a marry a mandarin.
She quitted China, and paid a visit
to the savages of the Southerr. Ocean.
dusky forms,
But
on wes 111721 1 7 to the to ir uch the earth,
and wished to be carried yet further.
'Still, after taking a bird's eye view of
the world, she could not, even at Pan
sillipno, the second paradise on earth,
lose from her memory the cottage
with the smoke curling so gently up
ward from its red chimney. She re
membered the words which her lover
had long ago read to her from a huge
book—"To travel ! Far better is it
to make a journey through one's self!
It is quite as long; and certainly more
amusing.' ,
Next, she found hersef in sight of
the restless billows of the Northern
Ocean. • •
'AI,, for my vine covered cottage!'
said she, now utterly dusgusted with
all travel.
In an instant sho was on the thres
hold of her own door.

ly beneath a royal crown. Very na't
urally, at the end of a year when the
proper moment had arrived, she wish•
ed that she kiheuld beCome a queen,
and her lover a king.
Behold then, Jacques and Susannah
crowned—not with the soft and fra
grant garland rases and of mountain
blossoms,but with a. crown which is
heavy ad weatying, whether it be
of silver, of gold,' or of diamonds.—
At her court, Susannah spent two
hours at her toilette, surrounded by a
score.of ladies, all of whom wished to
impress her with the belief that it
was owing to' their exertions alone
that she appeared so beautiful. In
attempting to heighten her loveliness
they diminished it. She trailed after ,
her a robe which completely hid her
delicate feet, and lessed her stature.
Her arms were overloaded with brace
letacd gold and of precious stones.—
She, Whlrdetightectiri tlfe'pe'rfame of
the rose and the wild-thyme, was
made ill by the penetrating adours
which surrounded .her.
She inquired for tier lover; bUt he
was. enga g ed in presiding over his
Council of State, and could not be dis
turked.
At last came the time for the royal
reception; courtiers hurried from ev
ery quarter of the kingdom—a (Lis
traeting throng of people who had
nothing at ail to do, and conquently
under a great hubbub in doing it;
who bad nothing whatever to any, and
therefore talked incessantly. It was
necessary for the king and queen to
respond graciously to each, and to
smile benignantly upon all; to confer,
or promise to confer favors upon the
few who needed them not, while neg.
letting the many who needed every
thing, but who could receive no con
sideration, because they were not pre
sented at Court.
At last, towards six o'clock., whilst
Susannah was engaged upon her third
toilette, her lover tame tospend a mo
ment with her—but he .bad scarcely
his lips to the tips of her fingers, be
fore dinner was announced. In the
reserved and sombre company, Jac
ques and Susannah were seated at a
distance from each other, and were
obliged to say .what they did not
think, and listen to what they cared
not to hear. It was a sore trial to
their patience, and by no means the
only one which they experienced that
day. In the evening the official re
ception was held amid rumors of wars
and insurrections; they danced, but it
was like dancing on a volcano.
Susannah soon discovered that,
throughout her kingdom no one was
contented, not even the queen.
'Alas cried she as she lay down
on a manifieent douch surmounted by
a golden crown-, and adorned with
hangings of velvet, lined with satin,
'Alas! would that I could sleep on
my little bed and be soothed by the
perfume of its corn-blossoms!'
But it wag too late. She had to
resign herself to her fate for a whole
year.
It would be impossible to describe
all the anxieties, the vexations, and
the sorrows, which she endured dur
ing the year in which she wore the
roses-1 mean the crown of .thorns.
She had to crush three or four revolts
of a half-famished and implacable na
tion; she was forced to dispose ef her
jewels in order to raise funds to prose
cute a war; she trembled every day
for the fate of Jacques—for it seemed
to be the eurront belief that if the king
was assassinated, the people of the
kingdom could make fortunes without
taking their hands out of' their pock
ets.
When that long desired day- return
ed, upon which Susannah could once
more put on the Slipper of Cinderella,
what think you, kind reader, was her
first wish ? She rose with the first
rays of the sun, kissed the slipper,
and raising her hands to Heaven cri
ed :
I pray with all my heart, that I
may once more be allowed to return,
with my belayed Jacques, to our low
ly litele cottage home on the moun
tain side Grant, oh, grant that I may
live again amid my flocks, my flow
ers, and my fruits, beside the cool
fountain and the clustered vines !
There, there only do I wish to reign
a queen, crowned with but a garland
of sweet wild flowers 1'
As if by enchantment, the lowly
maiden to whom the gift of wise de
sires had now returned, was transpor
ted to her cottage, where everything
seemed to laugh with joy at her re•
turn.
"flow excellent a school is experi
ence !" •said her lover to her;—'it is
even a better one than my father's!
Never more shall I wish for too lofty
a station. Here only do I desire to
pass my life, all the world forgetting,
by the world forgot—and reading no
more charming volume than your own
sweet self, my darling Susannah.'
'How delighted I am at your won
derful wisdom !' cried the lovely girl,
clasping her arms around his neck.
The fairy suddenly appeared before
them, saying:
'My dear children, you have at last
discovered the secret of true happi
ness. As you have no further need
for my slipper, 1 will reclaim it, to
bestow it yet upon others, who will;
I fear, make a choice lees wise than
yours.'
Susannah the Wild flower became
the wife of Jacques; they had many
children, and were happY—but not
‘ati' happy as kind.andrqueen:'

truth of our political theory, that Man Is capable
of self governiteiht,"and thatiell power emanates
from the people., An experience of seventy-one
years, under the Constitution of the United States,
has demonstrated to all mankind that the people
con be entrusted with their 'Orin political desti
nies; and the deliberate expression ef thole will
should runtish the rule of conduct to there repre
sentatives in official station. Thus appreciating
their liberal capacity fur Slit' government, and
alive to the importance of preserving, pure and
unsullied as it came from the hands of the Apostles
of Liberty, this vita) principle, I pledge myself
to stand between it and encroachments, whether
instigated 13y hatred or ambition, by fanatieinn
or folly.
The policy that should regelete the adininistra•
flan of the government of our State, WAS declar
ed by its founders, and is fully established by ex•
patience. It is just and fraternal in its :urns, lib
eral units spirit, anti patriotic in it progress. The
freedom of speech and of the press, the right of
conscience and of private judgment in civil and
religious faith, are the high prerogatives to which
the American citizen is born. In our social or
gauizatien the rich and the poor, the high and the
low,
enjoy these equally, and the Constitution end
the laws in harmony therewith, protect the rights
of all. The intelligence of the people is one of
the main pillars of the fahrie of our government,
and the highest hopes of the patriot for its safe
ty rest on enlightened public morality and virtue.
Our system of Common Schools will ever en.
list my earnest solicitude. For its growing
wants the most ample provision ' , tombs
be made by the Legislature. I feel that I need
not urge the duty. The systein has been gain ins ,
in strength end usefulness for a quarter of a cen
tury, until it has silenced opposition by its bone . -
icient fruits. It has at times languished for want
of just appropriations, from changes and amend
ments of the law, and perhaps from inellleitineY
in its administration; but it has surroomited ev
ery difficulty and is now regarded by the enlight
ened and patriotic of every political faith as the
great bulwark of safety for our free institutions.
The manner in which this subject is presented to
the Legislature, by my immediate predeces
tor, in his annual messege, fully harmonizes with
public sentiment; and his recommendation for
aid to the Farmers' High Scheel of Pennsylvania
meets my most cordial approbation, Invited to
the rich prairie lands of the Ilrest, where the la
bor of the husbandman is simple nod uniform,
when population has filled our valleys, it pacers
away from our highlaud soils where scientific
culture is required to reward labor by bringing
fruitfulness and plenty out of comparative steril
ity. While individual liberty has done mush
for an institution that is designed to educate the
farmer of the State, the School languishes for
want of publieald. Au experience of ton years
has fully demonstrated that tho institution can be
made solesnstuining; end it requires no aid from
the State except for the completion of the build
ings in accordance with the original design. A
liberal appropriation for that purpose would be
honorable to the Legislature and a just recogni
tion of a system of public instruction that is of
the highest importance to the State in the devel
°patent of our wealth, the growth of our popula
tion and the prosperity of our groat agrieultsral
interests..
The State baring been wisely reliered of the
management of the public improvements by their
sale, the administration of the government is
greatly simplified, its resources are certain and
well understood, and the amount of the public
debt is definitly ascertained.' A rigid economy
in all its various . departments and strict ae
ceuntability from all public officers, aro expect
ed.by our people, and they shall nut be disap
pointed. Now that the debt of the State is in
the course of steady liquidation, by the ordinary
moans of the Treasury, all unnecessary expend i.
lures of the public money must be firmly resist
ed, so that the gradual diminution of the-indebt
edness shell not be interrupted.
To promote the prosperity of the people and
the power of the Commonwealth, by increasing
her financial resources, by a liberal reeogn Ilion of
the vast interests of our commerce, by husband
ing our means and diminishing the burdens of
taxation and of debt', will he the highest objects
of my ambition, and all the energy of my admin
istration will he directed to the aceemplishment
of these results.
1 The pardoning power is one of the most impel.-
; tent end delicate powers conferred upon the Chi e f
lffagietrate by the Constitution, and it should ai
ways be exercised with great caution, anti nester
except on the meet conclusive evidence thit it is
due to the eonelenmed and that the public sceurity
will not be prejudiced by the net. When such
applications are presented to the Executive it is

which grow out of our natural advantages, have bectot
! cardinal principles of pfiltital economy in Pennsylvania,
and the opinion every where p emits among our people
that development, progress and wealth depend on edu
cated and requited labor; and- that tabor, and the
rests sustained by It, ithould be adequately protected ,
against foreign competition. The people of Pennsylvania
have always favored that policy which aims to elevate
and fester the industry of thecouutry in the collection of
revenue for the support of the tleneraltiovernment; and
whenever they have had the opportunity, In a fair elec
tion, they have vindicated that policy at the ballot-box.
Whoa their trade was prostrated and their industry para
lyzed by the legislation of the General Government,
which favored advqrse interests, they waited patiently
for the return of another opportunity to declare the pub
lic will in a constitutional manner. In the late election
of President of the United States, the principle of pro,
tection was one of the prominent issues. With the pro
reedings of Congress at it , last session fresh at their
meteorite, a large majority of the people of Pennsylva
nia enrolled themselves in an organization, witch, in its
declaration of principles, promised, if successful, to be
f +Maul to their suffering interests and languishing In

This is a propitious moment to de:do-re that while the
people of Pennsylvania were not Indifferent to other vital
I,,sUen of the canvass, they were demanding justice for
themselves in the recent election, and had no design to
interfere wit it or abridge the rights of the people other
States.. The growth of our State hod bean retarded by
the abrogation of the principle of protection from the
revenue laws of the national 'government; bankruptcy
had crushed the energies of many of our moot enterprli

heard, nor was An arra raised to offer violence to the
sacred tabrie of our national Videb, Conscious of their
rights and their power,. one people looked toile ballot_
box alone as the lemd remedy existing evils.
In the present' unhappy condition of the country, it
will to our duty to unite with the people of the States
which remain loyal to the Union, in any just and honor
able measures] of conciliation and fraternal kindness.—
Let us invite them to join us in the fulfilment of ail our.
obligations under the radars/ Constitution and laws.—
Then we can cordially unite with them in claiming tike
obedience from those States which have renounced their
allegiance. If the loyal States are just and moderate,
without any sacrifice of right or self respect, the threat
ened danger may be averted.
Ours is,. National Gmernment. It has within the
sphere of its action all the attributes of sorereiffuty, and
among these are the right and duty of selfspreaervation.
It e based upon a compset to which all the people of the
United Status are parties. It is the result of mutual
concessions, which were made fur the purpoie of secu
sin- reciprocal benefits. It acts directly on the people,
antrtinly owe it a personal allegiance. No part of the
people, no State nor combination of States, can voluutro
rily secede from the Union, nor absolvo themseiviel fronz
their obligations to It. T,) permit a State to withdraw
at pleasure from the Union, without the consent of the
root, is to coolest.' that one . gOVOLI9IOnt is a failure. Pont
sylvanla can never 4llennieno in enth a conspiracy, nor ,
assent to a doctrine width.involves the destruction of
the Gdvernment. if the tjovernment is Co exist, alt the
roan:re:wills of the Codatitutiott mast be obeyed; and
it roust have power adequate to the enforcement of the
supreme law of the land in every State. It is the first
duty of the Notional authorities to stay the progress of
anarchy and enforce the laws, and Pennsylvania with a
unite" people. will give them an honest, faithful and
active support. The people mean to preserve the integ,
city of tho National 'Union at every hazard.
The ° aw ait- n o, n iehieb was erigivally framed to pro
mote the welfare of thirteen States awl four millions of
people, in less than three-quarters of a centurylms em
brieed thirty-three States and thirty millions of inhabf
outs. Our territory has been extended over new climates,
ineludingpeople with new interests and wants, and the
Government has protected them all. Every thing requi
site to the perpetuity of the Union and its expanding
power, would seem to have been foreseen and provided
for by the wisdom and eagacity of the framers of the
Constitutiou.
It is all we desire or hope for, and all that our fellow
countrymen who complain, can reasonably demand. It
provides that ammadinents may be proposed by Congress;
and whenever the rilMinity to amend shall occur, the
penis of rtztarylearde will give to tiet antentlinente
which Congress laity propose, the careful and deliberate
consideration which their importance may demand--
Change is not always progress, and a people who have
lived sit Song, and enjoyed so much prosperity, who have
so many sacred memories of the pest,acid such rich lega
cies to transmit to the future should deliberate long and
seriously before they attempt to alter any of tile funda
mental principles of the great charter of our libertine.
I assume the duties of this high ollike at the Most•try
