In compliance; with, the provisions Or the 55th
section of the last general appropriation law, di
recting the Governor to'sell andiconvey the State
arsenal property in Juniper street, in the ci* of
*, Philadelphia," conditioned that the sum of thirty
thousand dolars should be obtained for the same,

that sealed proposals would be received for the
same, and naming the rninimumlprice and terms
of sale. l The highest and only bid received was
that of the Pennsylvania railroad company, na
ming the sum of thirty thousand dollars. There
being no other bidder, the property was accord
ingly conveyed to that company.
The purchase of another - suitable lot and the
erection of a new building, presented a service of
greater difficulty, the law restraining the entire
coit to the price obtained for the old property.—
I deemed 'it proper that; military gentlemen of
Philadelphia should be consulted as to the tom-
The Attorney General, as required by an act
approved the 19th of April, last, has made dili

wealth against defaulting agents and public offi

In accordance with the 35th section of the ap
propriation law of last session, ,I appointed Geo.
Blatteriberger, Esq., to superintend the removal
of certain obstructions out of the "raft channel in
the Susquehanna river, at Brubaker's island."—
lie has caused the work to be completed in a
satislactory manner, at a; cost of $247,50 leaving
5102,50, of the appropriated unexpended, in the
treasury.
I deem it proper, to remark in this connection,
that there are obstacles in the way of the descend-.
ing navigation at various points in that stream,
the removal 01 which, by the State, would be but
an act of justice to those Interested in the navi
gation, in view of what they have suffered in
personal comfort and peed:Mary profit, as a con
sequence of the construction of the public works.
The numerous ucciderits.that have occurred on
the railroads of the country during the past sea
son—the consequent deitfuction of human life
and property; the difficulties that have surround
ed all efforts to trace these casualties to their true
cause, tool to impose ujion the delinquents just
responsibilities, have suggested the necessity for
more specific laws on the subject; and I respect
fully recommend the measure to your favorable
notice. It is believed that much could be accom
plished for the security Of railroad travel, by ad
ditional precautionary Measures in the direction
of passenger trains. Our it is true,las not
been the scene of so many of these disasters as
some others; but this -rnity not be the case. when
speed shall be greatly increased, as is contempla
ted by some of our railroad companies.
Whatever relates to tl; cause of education—to
the moral and social‘co r ition of the people or to
the amelioration of human suffering, should com
mand deliberate considekation. All our educa
timial, benevolent, charitable and reformat ory
institutions are, therefoke, commended to your
special care.
The State Lunatic Asylum, situate within a
mile of the capitol, is now In successful opera
t ion and in a most flourishing condition, realiz-.

and it is but just to its .accomplished sup erin

the State has alread-i bestowed the sum of
$206,499, r id a small sum may still be requir
ed to place it in a condition at perfect self-reli
ance.
By the act of April 7; 1853, was incorporat

mane and benevolent purpose the Legislature,

ing hand. The object of this institution is to
discover humanity in its lowest condition of
mental aril physical weakness and deformity,
and elevate it to the dignity of intelligence, or
der and usefulness. Its disinterested and be•
nevolent founders hole merited the thanks of
the christian and patriot.
'1 he House of Refuge, in Philadelphia, may
possibly require furrier legislation. The board
,/of managers of that truly charitable institution
are now erecting a spacious and costly build
lag, into which they expect to transfer the in
mates of the old housefat an early day. Of ail
schemes fey the amelioration of human distress

which so fatally attraci and mislead the young
and thoughtless. I cheerfully, and earnestly
commend this admirable institution to your
fostering care.
The report of the superintendent will exhibit
to you the condition of the common schools of
the Comthonwealth. •No department of the
government has greater claims upon the Gen
eral Assenjbly than this, and it affords ma the
greatest satisfaction to be able to assure you of
the flourishing condition of the common school
system, and of the undone' interest manifested
in every part of the Commonwealth in the
cause of education. We should look forward
with lively inrerest to the day wheri our great
Commonwealth, freed, to some extent, from
the shackles of debt, can, as she doubtless will,
contribute an adequate sum to this cause.
My attention has been called to the condi
tion of the State Library by the officer having
charge of it at this time. It is• alleged, with
evident rebson and truth, that the rooms now
in use are .tOO small for the purpose ; that many
of the hooks are stowed away in boxes, and
also that the laws proiiding for their security ,
and imposing responsibilities on the Librarian,
are quite insufficieut: This highly interesting'
and useful; institution' will doubtless receive
your speci4l care.
It is proper that I should make know • to
you the progress that has been made on the
subject of tile erection of a monument at Inde•
pendence Hall, in Philadelphia, commemora
tive ofthe Declaration of - Independence.
In October, 1852, the councils of Philadel
phia, by uCanimous consent, passed an ordi
nance dedic!ating the necessary . ground in In
dependenee;Square to this patnotio and sacred
national purpose, and proposing to give pos
session of ;he premises to the representatives
of nine or more of the original States.
By an ac*, of the Legislature of February
eat, confirming this ordinance of the councils,
•the Governor was authorized to appoint a trus
tee to act in conjunction with the trustees of
the other Slates,- in the erection of the monu
ment, I scchrdingly appointed Albert G. Water 3
man, Esq., of Philadelphia, the trustee on behalf
of Pennsylvania.
The Status of New York, New Jersey, Now
Hampsbirel&nd Connecticut have adopted laws
similar to that of this State, and trustees have
been appointed in each. Under:the terms of these
laws, no action can be taken by the trustees,
until at least nine of the thirteen original States
shall have signified their willingness to partici
pate in the enterprise. There are still four
States wanting, and with theist the issue must
rest for the present.
I
am unWilling to believe that an" object so
entirely proper in itself— so congenial to the
feeling's of the American nation—so signifidatit

h e Perfect Grain Drill and
most Valuable Agricultural Implement.--
A great improirement in. Grain Drills, making this
excellent Agricultural Implement a pelect Ma
chine, foc-w — hich letters patent were issued Sep
tember 20th, to Mr. Samuel Jenkins, of York co.
The improvement consists in attaching an ad
instable curved cutter of steel, to and through the
drag bar and through the point of th tooth or
drill, in front of the tooth, forming a triple edge
at the point, and enabling the tooth to raise up and
glide over any obstructions, and completely regu
lating the depth of furrow required, and depositing
the grain to the depth, according to the character
of the soil. The Gutter likewise prevents weeds
or stubble from clogging or choking up the mouth
of the Drill. Heretofore insuperable disadvantages
have attended the use of the Grain Drill, on any
other than a level and even soil ; but by this sim
ple invention the operation of the Machine is made
complete and perfect, and this valuable Agricnltu
ral implement can now be used on uneven, stony
or rocky ground, or on new clearing, where the
stumps have not yet been removed, with the mine
easy draught and perfect operation, in Seeding ane
Drilling, as on even and clear soil, without jarrind
the Machine in the least, or putting the seeding
devices out of gear.
The model and specifications are now at the In
ventors Institute, Fulton Hall, where J. Franklin
Reigart will be pleased to give every information
to persons interested in the matter, desiring to ex-,
amine the same more particularly, or to purchase
County or State rights. r
Competent persons desirous of securing the
Agency to sell the County and State rights of this
most usetul Machine; should apply immediately.

Youth, Age, Style, Taste, Beauty
and Fashion.—The seasons of life should bo
arranged like those of the year. In the spring ui
youth, when all is lovely and gay, then as the
green cover is spread on all the face of smiling na
ture, in brightness and beauty, so. let the dresspar
take of the season. Fine taste, as we•lt as Mahlon,
decrees the necessity of nicely adapted garments
to age, circumstances and seasons. The man
whose head is silvered with age, who feels not the
blood of youth dancing warmly in his veins, should
not run into extremes of dress, nor yet should he
permit his clothing to be so far behind the times as
to render him ridiculous. There is a becoming
fashionable dress, suitable for the age and seasons
of lite as well us the seasons of the year. You can
'be suited in handsome style in clothing that is well
and tashionably made, of gold materials that will
fit well and become the figure and season, at the
great Cldtbing Bazaarol
