pealed. Tx repeal would largely encourage the investment of capital in this .Stali\ and add immensely to the j Wealth of the Stale, while the local HUlhoritfes would lose very little, as it is notorious that, from the difficulties i*f assessment, they receive very little from the;,c sources. i In case of such repeal I recommend the adoption of some effectual meas ures for enforcing correct returns of ftQeli objects of taxation, with appro priate penalties for the neglect or re fusal to make them. I make these recommendations be* - Sieving that it will lead to more equith hle local taxation, and to greater ecui- j *oy in their disbursement. Many nets are; i the statntc hooks incorporating companies for various purposes, which companies have never noen organized or gone into ojieration. I recommend that all sfich acts be re pealed by a fcneral law. and that pro vision bo made that in future every act authorizing a corporation shall be rofflt void unles the corporation shall organize and use its franchises within a limited time. The report of David Will*, esq, president of the .Soldier*' National Cemetery at Gettysburg, herewith transmitted, shows the present et.-ndi- . lion of the cemetery. * .As the battle of Gettysburg resulted in a glorious vie j tory, and was in fact the beginning of j the end of the war. and o -furred on the soil of the Commonwealth, I think it would be well that it should be com- i incinerated by an historical painting, t > he placed in the C tp't >! of the State. ; and I recommend that the Legislature , take measures for thai purpose. The State of Maryland ha* proposed to her sister States that they unite with her in establishing a cemetery fr our soldiers who fell at Antietara I herewith transmit copies of the Ma ryland s.atute, and oth-r documents on this subject, and recommend the passage of an act heartily accepting, the proposition of the State of Mary- | land. All the State-, having promptly i and generously respondel ?o our pro- ; i position to have a cemetery at Gettys burg, it would seem proper that we should reciprocate, and unite in thi*. ' The tint}' is made more sacred when ! we retn •nih-r that more of Pennsyl vania's sons fell in that battle than those of any other State. The report of the State agent at 5 Washington, herewith transmitted, shows that under his efficient manage incnt the claims of our soldiers are j promptly examined and paid. Kvery effort has been made to apprise our of ficers and men that their claims will be collected by the State agent (Col. Jordan*, without expense to them; yet it i* feared that many of them continue to employ private cairn agents, whose fees bear heavily on the . claimants. * j Since my last annual message I have expended of the secret service fund the i sum of 84,333 20, out of which i have paid my personal graft' and other ex traordinary expenses. No appropria-1 t on is required for the increase o: this fund. I invite your attention to the report of the military departments of the State, to the report id the Superinten dent of Common Schools, which cx- ' hibits .the prosperous condition of our system of public education, and to the report of the Surveyor General, and recommend to your favorable conside ration the many excellent suggestions made by that officer. 1 commend to your earnest conside ration the suggestion made i.y tin- Surgeon General in ids report, here • with transmitted, on the propriety ot legislation fcr the protection of our people, by proper sanitary measures, from the ravages of the cholera, which • is now approaching our shores. T commend to the wisdom of the Legislature the subject of providing for the relief of our many maimed and wounded soldiers. Possibly this might ' r. f ,l f done by continuing and enlarging the' fftfs providing for boards of relief i Tend counties. 1 recommend 1 hv the Legislature of this j or spine ottfjjrTdkn lor doing justice to * 0 TTifr (/f YneiV in duestiou. motion of May lb i fr WfyWfhWJ.Sb' ffi'cV Yd '/dre fla.-s to dutv of 1V& tjd K s c'el re Upe ftags whe,i .

My uniform course during the late war was to avoid the discussion of the policy of the general government, while giving a hearty support to the national authorities in all their meas urot? to suppress the rebellion. I shall continue to pursue the -same course during the embarrassments necessarily connected with the entire restoration of the country. The principles express ed in the rnes.-age of the President, at the commencement of the session of Congress, will receive my cordial sup port. During the last five years the peo ple of tin* State have suffered deeply irom tiie calamities of war. Thousands of her men have been slain, and others are maimed and broken. Almost every family has been stricken, and every where there are widows and orphans, many of thorn helpless and in poverty. It is a subject of sincere congratulu lion that peace has at last returned. I am not aware of the existence of any difficulty with other nations which may not he amicably adjusted, and ■ theicforu venture to express the hope ; that long years of tranquility and hap puiess ale before us.
