GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE,
To the Senate and House of I?Jpresentat ires of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylviznia.
GENTLEMEN had intended, inimedintely
after my induction into office, to communicate
with you on the subject of the public debt. and
to exhibit the actual financial condition of the
Commonwealth at that period. After the ne•
cessary examination, however, I discOvered that
I could not do so with that precise accuracy
which should characterize the statements of an
official communication. There are Outstandinir
debts on the public works, unpaid Clain's, mil
balances as appropriations for lasf year, the
amount of which could not tie ascertained in
time for this purpose. lam therefao, I regret
to say, compelled to forego thii perfdrmattee of
this duty, until the meeting of tlie next Legis
lature. I cannot, however, refrain from express
ing the views I entertain, and the anxiety I feel
Jan a few subjects connected with the financial
Wnd other affairs of the State.
There is now due and unpaid do millions
tour hundred and ninety•one thousand two hun
dred and fifty-five dollars of the bo l as of the
Commonwealth, hearing an interestiot six per
cent., and a balance of near one hundred thou
-sand dollars due to domestic creditors, bearing
a like rate of interest, besides one million three
hundred and ninety thousand dollarsi at five per
cent ; over two millions wip fall due in 1853,
and about three millions in 1854.
I respectfully suggest to the Legislature the
propriety of making provision for the eaneella•
tion of these matured bonds,.and such as may
fall due during the coming year, by authorizing
the State Treasurer to negotiate loans lot that
purpose, and issue the bonds of the Common
wealth, re-imbursable at the expiration of ten or
fifteen years, at a rate of interest note exceeding
five per cent., with interest certificates attached,
or in the usual form as may he dectried proper.
The present reduced rates of interest in Europe,
and the abundance of money in Ilk principal
cities of this country, afford multi assurance
that such loans can he negotiated at a rate of in
terest much below that which the Slate is' now
bound to pay on these bonds. I ant hilly satin
tied by information which has reached me through,
private, as well as public sources, thr t the bonds
of the State exempted from taxation, could fie
negotiated at such rate of interest. a to make
a very desirable saving to the Trcasitry. It, is
not so much the present rate of tax oil the bonils
. that would injure the value of new ones, as the
sensitive apprehension entertained bylcapitalisis,
that such rate of taxation might, at home future
time„ be increased. Besides these inducements
to cancel the 'natured bonds, we slit4ild not for-
. _
get that it is not befitting a great fuid:pro,merous
State like Pennsylvania, to have a matured and
unpaid debt reeling upon her. Sucht a state of
affairs is not consistent with her dignity and her
prido, and is well calculated to have an injurious
client upon her credit. Her ability t pay can
not be doubted, and the fidelity with which her
people have ever responded to every reasonable
demand to sustain her credit, has exfited unlim
ited confidence in her integrity 'aniongst . the
capitalists of this country and Europt.. I there
fore, most respectfully, submit. subject to
your consideration.
The receipts into thf, Treasury hit - the year
1851, deducting the .14niforary loan of $98,200,
amounted to $1,472.393 93, and the expendi
tures for the same year to 54,780,667 53, or
$308,363 10 more titan the whole receipts. In
this expenditure is included 51,5,138 91 which
was paid to the Commissioners at the Sinking
Fund, and cannot, therefore, be Properly re
garded as an expenditure, as it was tiled to cancel
a like amount of the funded debt, -leaving an
actual balance against the Treasury di $123,225.-
49.
.
After full consultation with the financial officer
of the State, and a careful examination of the
data which Ire has kindly placed within my reach,
I have arrived atjthe conclusion, that the receipts
and expenditures for the current yda may be
estimated as follows, to wit : Beet:fins '4,3,25,-
000, expenditures $.1,027,000, leaving alance
of receipts over expenditures 9298,000, including
in this expenditure an estimated pa;Mient to the
Commissioners of the Sinking Fund;of $220,000.
But it should be observed, that in the expendi
tures fur last year, there is included lic suns of
$442,196 applied to the North Branch canal, and
$30,000 for the inclined planes on pie Portage
road and the Western reservoir, imiking in all
$472,196 expended on new work during the last
season. It will be seen, however, by reference
to the State Treasurer's report, thaethe balance
in the Treasury on the first of December, 1350,
was 9754.252,81, whilst at the ramie period of
the year 1851, the balance was but .5.13,979,21,
being a difference against the TreaSury for this
year, of 9210,252,60, which sum, tagether with
the $300,000 of temporary loan, tozibe paid out
of the receipts of the present year,. amount to
9510,252,60, being $38,155,69 more than till the
payments for new work, and on this data the
balance in the Treasury at the end bt this year,
is reduced to $259,844 40.. Thu . it will ap
lear, that.should no accident occult° the pub
ic works during the present season, we may
reasonably anticipate a surplus revenue of be
tween two and three hundred thoueand dollars
Should the improvements, however, be visited
by any thing like the extent of da nage which
befell them during the last y.ear,fthis balance
would be reduced to a sum tub. meagre to de
serve notice. It is, therefore, apparent that we
cannot rely upon the surplus reienue of the
Treasury during the current year, for the means
to prosecute the work on the Nortlyßranch canal
and the Portage railroad with thativigor which
the interest of the State seems to demand.
I remarked at the time of my idduction into
office that I regarded the speedy completion of
the North Branch canal as consistent with•the
truest principles'of economy. The ;examination
which I have given the subject since that time,
has tended greatly to increase my 'confidence in
the truthfulness of that declaration. !In this view,
I seem to concur in opinion with iny able and
experienced predecessor, who took occasion to
recommend this subject to the favorable consid
eration of the Legislature in his lak annual mes
sage. The policy of resuming the brosecution of
this work is no longer an open ins le, and need'
not now be discussed. This ques ion was set
tled by the Legislature of 1849 ;since. which
time about $650,000 have been expended on the
work ; all of which, together with two and a half
millions originally expended, and t le amount of
retained per centage, and the usual damages to
the contractors on the abandonment of the work,
must be entirely lost, unless the Anal be coin.
pleted.
• The whole length of this imirrovement is
ninety-four miles; fifty miles of which are fully
completed and the remaining fort ,-four are un
der contract, or ready to be put under contract so
soon as the Legislature may make) provision for
the payment of the same, Acting to the
estimate of William B. Koster, Ai experienced
engineer on that line, $1'72,000 will be sufficient
to complete it ; and that should the means he
promptly furnished, the whole line may be
brought into use in the early pari of the next
season. Can it be doubted, for a Moment, that
the next annual receipts on this work will largely
exceed the interest on this meagic suns? 1 am
confident that those who have given the subject
the least attention will not hesitate on this point.
I confidently believe that they will lie sufficient
not only to do this, but also to pay the interest
on the 9650,000 expended since 1849, and on the
two and a-half millions expendediprim to 1811,
and leave a balance to go into the, Treasury be
sides. I need not give you my rehsons in detail,
for this opinion. The data on which it rests has
been presented to you in more foreible terms than
I could employ. It requires but a glance at the
operations on the completed part of that improve
ment—at the vast district of countiy which would
• be supplied with anthracite coal through the
medium of this canalthe rapidly increasing
. consumption of this article wherever it has been
brought into use—to satisfy the most incredulous
mind that the tonnage on tins improvement must,
in a few years, be almost equal to its capacity.
Some twenty-five counties of Met State of New
York, rich, populous and growing, embracing a
number of incorporated cities, note paying high
prices fbr fuel, would be auppliedlwith this artl
cle for domestic, mechanical and manufacturing
purposes ; in return for which the canal would,
to some extent, be freighted with ,salt, plaster,
&c., &c. The growth of the anthracite coal
business in the State is almost incredible. Ifwe
may be allowed to take this increase as a data on
which to base an estimate of the future. bu.,iness
of this canal, it will more than equal the expec
tations of its most sanguine friends. We can
scarcely realize the fact that the operations in
this article have grown from 80,000 tons in 1840,
to near 4,500,000 tons in 1851, and in all preba
bility the amount will exceed 5,000,000 for the
current year! .
If, then, it be so apparent that the income from
this work will pay? the interest on its cost and leave
a surplus for the use of the Treasury beside, wise
policy would seem to dictate its speedy completion.
I most respectfully and earnestly urge upon you
the favorable consideration of this subject at the
earliest day possible. The time for doubt and de
lay, it seems to me, has gone by. This . Work must
either be finished or over three millions of the peo
ple's money, already expended on it, must he
thrown a way. To depend upon the present means
of the Treasury Would, I am confident, lead to vex
atious and injurious delay. The sum necessary to
complete it should, and, I am assured, can he ob
tained on a loan at a rate of interest not exceeding
live per cent., re.imbursible at such period as the
revenue therefrom shall have reached the amount
of the interest and principle. I mu ;maw that
there is a proper.sensitiveness in the minds of the
people on.tbis subject of borrowing money; and I
am sure that I should not recommend any measure
that would ha ve'the effect of increasing their bur
thens. But I sincerely believe that the tendenr y
of this measure will be to lessen rather than in
crease them—that it is the best financial measure
the Legislature can at present adopt—that its ulti
mate tendency will be to aid the Treasury in the
liquidation of the present debt: certainly much
more so than the alternative of allowing the sum
already expended to be lost. The completion of
this work will also give an impetus to the growth
and prosperity of the northern portion of the State;
would invite men and money into that rich section
of the Commonwealth, and would be an act of jus
tice to the people of that region who have ever,
with a true spirit of loyalty and generosity, con
tributed their proper share towards sustaining, the
honor and dignity of the State.
The importance of prompt and efficient action
on this subject cannot be overrated. The citizens
of the State of New York, who intend to construct
the connecting link between our improvements and
the Chemung canal, in that State, should have cur
ly assurance that our improvement will be comple
ted. Business men, who desire to operate on this
line, will not make the proper arrangements to do
so until ample provision is made for its completion.
Every consideration of interest and economy, it
seems to me, dictates prompt and efficient action
on this question.
The avoidance of the inclined planes on the Al
legheny Portage railroad, was also commenced un
der the late administration, and, in my opinion, is
a necessary work, and should be prosecuted to com
pletion as rapidly as the means of the treasury will
permit. It is an important link in our main line of
improvements, and has ever been (and unless the
planes are avoided, will continue to be) a source of
heavy expenditure, great delay, and danger in the
transportation of tonnage. The annual experali
tnre to keep these planes in order has been very
heavy. It is estimated that near a hundred thou
sand dollars would be saved yearly in the expenses
of this railroad were the use of 'he planes dispensed
with. One hundred and sevenry-five thousand
dollars were appropriated for this purpose by the
last Legislature. The old material on the road is
counted at a value of $248,650. This, with the
additional sum of 1'ii591,350, it is estimated b, Mr.
i Faries, the engineer on that line, will accomplish
this desirable end. lam also assured by the same
officer, that with the necessary appropriation, four
of the ten planes may be avoided during the coin
, mg season.
In connection with this subject, I need scarcely
remark, that our main line of improvements is a
bout to encounter a most powerful rival for the ton
nage of the West in the Pendsylvania railroad,
which work will probably be completed during the
year 1853. The avoidance of the planes will do
more, I am confident, to strengthen the:main line
against this competition than any other improve
ment that can be made. I respectfully recommend
his subject to your favorable consideration.
The absolute necessity fur the expenditure of
large sums of money to complete the improve
ments to which I have referred, will, I am confi
dent, admonish you of the propriety of confining
' the appropriations to the lowest possible point that
the public service and the interest of the State
will permit, including nothing for which she is not
legally and morally bound to provide. Rigid
economy in the expenditures is indispensably ne
cessary to sustain the credit of the State, fulfil the
engagements she has already made, and meet
the reasonable expectations of the people. The
public improvements of the State are one of our
Principal sources of revenue, and should at all
times, receive the special care of the Legislature.
Every proper effort should be made to increase the
receipts and lessen the. expenditures on these
works. I have not had the opportunity of giving
the subject of their management that thorough ex
amination which is indispensably necessary to the
formation of a correct opinion id reference tothe
details of their, operation ; but I have long enter
tained the opinion that no action of the Legisla
ture could have a more salutary effect upon their
management than the adoption of the cash sys.
tern in paying for the labor and materials necessa
ry to keep them in successful operation. It is, in
my opinion, to the system of contracting debts
now in practice, as much, if not more, than to
any other defect in the present policy, may be at
tributed their failure to meet the expectations of
the people as a source of revenue. The most vig_
lant efforts of the officers could not prevent the
payment of exorbitant prices for labor and mate
rials, if obtained on credit. The State always
pays dearly for such accommodation. Besides. this
custom affords the opportunity o of most palpable
imposition, if not actual frauds upon the State.—
The very idea of a set of officers being allowed to
throw the credit of the Commonwealth broadcast
to be taken up at some future period by somebody
else, is almost startling. I regard it as a most
dangerous policy, calculated to beget a spirit of
careless prodigality in the management orpublic
affairs, And to invite imposition upon the treasury.
It should, in my opinion, be abandoned at the ear-
nest day possible. I, therefore, respectfully sug
gest the propriety of fixing a period by law, afte
which the officers on the public works shall not
be allowed to contract debts for any purpose what
ever, 'directing the disbursing officers to make
monthly statements of their accounts to the Canal
Commissioners, showing the amount t.f money
disbursed and the materials purchased, and requir
ing all outstanding accounts to be presented to the
Canal Commissioners or Auditor General for set_
Clement. Under a cash system the actual indeld
edriess of the State could at all times be readily
ascertained, which would be a great convenience
for the Legislature, as well as a satisfaction to the
people. In the introduction of a new system of
this kind, care should be taken to place at tits
command of the proper officer the necessary means
-to carry it into operation.
It might be well, also, to take some action on
the subject of claims for damages incurred in file
construction of our public improvethents. This
subject should be finally disposed of. Although
many years have passed by since the construction
of these works, every year brings out some new
item of this kind. Much of the time of the Leg
islature, and the Canal Commissioners; is occupied
in the examination of these claims, and for the
last ten or .twelve years they have absorbed the
means of the Treasury to the extent of from fifty
to eighty thousand dollars annually. I am in
formed that claims are now being pressed for da
mages, which, it is alleged, the Commonwealth
incurred more than twenty years since. It mus
be a most difficult task for the Canal Commis
sioners to ascertain all the facts in cases so long
deferred. I suggest the propriety of disposing
of this subject by some summary mode of proceed
ing.
In conclusion, I beg to be indulged in a eugges
'tion on the subject of epeciaf legislation. I am

confident that the General Assembly will agree
with me, that some reform on this subject is much
needed. The volumes of our laws for the sessions
of 1850 and 1851, compared with those of previ
ous years, show that our legislation is increasing
to 'an alarming degree. By reference to these
volumes for the years I have named, it will be
seen that but a comparatively small portion of the
laws they contain are of a general character, be
ing mainly for local or isrivate purposes. These
volumes, when compared with the statutes enact
ed eight or ten years since, or with those annually
enacted by Congress, or any of our sister States,
swell into an astonishing magnitude. This evil
is on the increase, and it seems to me that a rem
edy imperiously called for. Much may be done
to arrest this evil by the adoption of a few well
digested general laws. Fur the purpose of ataM
ing this desirable end, I respectfully suggest for
your consideration, the propriety of constituting a
commission:of two or three experienced legal gen
tlemen, whose duty it shall be to prepare general
laws to meet this object, to be submitted to the
consideration of the next Legislature. I know
from experience how difficult it is for the repre
sentatives of the people, after their arrival at the
seat of government, to find the necessary leisure and
privacy to enable them to prepare and digest intri
cate general laws. Each day seems to bring its
labors upon.them, and a session runs by before a
subject of. this kind can receive necessary consid
eration.
The subject of regulating election districts, na
ming election houses, which annually occupies
much of the time of the Legislature, and many
pages of the Journal and Statute Books might be
safely confided to the commissioners of the respec•
live counties.
The subject of divorces should, it seems to me,
he left entirely with the courts; as well, also, as
the whole subject of selling real estate by trustees,
guardians, and those acting in a representative ca
pacity. These measures, together with a few
more general statutes, on the subject of corpora
tions, would, I thick, have a most salutary effect
on legislation. As far as possible, our laws should
he general ; and those that are so, should be stern
ly maintained against special innovations.

a family of boys and girls on veritable

enough in their places;
_and so are ribbons, and

COSIFLETELY CURED IN THREE DAYS BY DR. J. W
COOPER'S VEGETABLE COMPOUND
FEVER AND AGUE PILLS
T -
HESE Pills are composed entirely of Vegeta
ble Substances, nd ninety-nine cases out 01
every hundred, will perform a perfect and perms.
nent cure in three days. No instance nas ever
been known, where more than six days have been
required to perform a complete cure, even in the
very worst cases, and on the strongest constitu
tions. We would earnestly say to all who are
of with this distressb.g disease, to get one
box and try them, and in all cases, two boxes are
warranted to cure, if taken according to the di
rections, or the money returned. ALSO, %1Y
VEGETABLE ANTI-DYSPEPSIA BITTERS.
'This medicine is a certain •cure for Dyspepsia
in its very worst forms. • Thousands of cases have
been completely cured by it within the last year,
which have been entirely despaired of by the re.,g,
tiler family physicians. We do not recommend tt
to cure everything—we recommend it to. cure
Dyspepsia, and the diseases originating from it.
and that it will cure in almost every case, and it is
recommended for nothing else. In many instances,
even the worst of cases hove been completely
cured in two and three months, but it depends
.somewhat upon the constitution of the patient.
We would nay to all who
. are afflicted with Dys
pepsin, givea
this medicine fair irial,and if it lads
to do good, yo r money will be returned. ALSO,
MY VEGETABLE WORM POWDERS.
This is the moot wonderful Worm Destroyer
ever known, and at the sarne time, so pleasant to
take, that almost every child will be tend of it,
and many instances have been known of children
crying t.tr more after once taking it,
'I his medicine is In the form •of a powder, the
only
tl medicine,ever used in that form, and it ope
ties upon a principle entirely different from any
other medicine ever administered by any other
physician. It is,the only medicine which has no
Worm seed Oil or Turpentine combined with it,
whien is believed by all t,i her physicians. to be the
only two things w hitli will destroy worms, and
these ttvo things combined, together with castor
oil, are the active Principles of all other worn)
medicines, which every perdue who tr:s ever tasted
or smelled, knows to be the most nauseous el all
nauseous medicines, and on'account of which, there
is generally something added to destroy this nau
seous taste, and in order to do this, it is some
thing strong than the medicine itself, and
therefore it rfiust necessarily destroy some of its
medicinal prop. rites. • These powders are simple
and so harmless. that a child may cat a whole box
at once, and it will not be hurt, while at the same
time the principle upon which it acts beina difilrei t t
from anything else ever used, a will destroy all
kinds of Worms with a certainty never equalled
It will not only destroy the seat worms, or scari
des, and long. round worms, or 'cores. but is - the
must effectual medicine for the destruction of the
Tape Worm ever Itnown. Ten doses have brought
as many as FIVE Tape Worms from one person
It your children have any symptoms of worms,
try these Powders, and in nine cases out of ten,
you will never use -any other These are also
warranted.
These medicines are all separate, and one for
each disease, and each for only one disease. They
are not recommended, as many other medicines
are, to cure some tifteen.or twenty diseases, and
all of different natures. hut they are each to cure
but one disease, and that they wilbdo in ninety
nine cases out of every hundred, laid where they
have a lair trial and fail. in all cases, the money w,Il
be returned, _

whose life has been spent in the Hospitals of Lon

ever known. Many troubled mob ringing in the

PARTICULARIAKE NOTICE.
Dr. 'J• addresses all those who have injured
theniselves by priit aie and improper induligencie,,
:hat secret and solitary habits, which ruin built
body and mind, unfitting them for either business
Or society.
These are some of the sad and melancholy ef
fects produced by early habits of youth, viz:
Weakness of the back , and limbs, Pains iir t he head,
Dimness of Sieht, Loss of Muscular Power - , Pal
pithtion of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous lay a
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &c.
Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded: Loss of Memory, COllill,lllO
of pleas, Depression of Spirits, Evil of Foreho
dint?, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity, &c., are sonic of the evils pro
duced
NERVOUS DEBILITY.
Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arises from the destruct
ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to
the healthful existence of man, and it is the young
who are the Most apt to become its Victims from
an ignorance of the dangers to which they subject
themselves. Parents and Guardians are often ruts.

in their sons and wards. Alas! how ot:t.n do they
ascribe to other causes the wasting of the !rattle,

Derangement of the Nervous System. Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, also those seniors
Mental eflects, such as loss of Memory, Deptes•
sion of Spirits or peculiar fits of Melancholy, %then
the truth is they have been caused by indulging
Pernicious but alluring practices, destructive to
both Body and Mind. Thus are swept from ex
istence thousands who might have been of use to
their country, a pleasure to their friends, an orna
ment to society.
WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS
immediately cured and full vigor restored.
Oh, how happy have hundreds of misguided
youths been made, who have been suddenly resto
red to health from the devastanons of !hone terrine
maladies which result from indiscretion. Such
persons, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
Shollioi reflect that a sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote c.tutotbiat
happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey then'
life becomes n weary pilgrimage ; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view • the mind becomes
shadowed with despair, and elled with the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be.
comes blighted with our own. Let no false delica
