GOVERNOR’SHIESSAGB,
To tke, : Honorable the arid Members
of ihe Houae of Representatives of the Com
monwealth of Pennsylvania:
Getttlbmejt : — Although the year just closed has been
one of great depression In the business and monetary
affairs of the country, I am happy to be able to announce
to the Representatives of the People, that the finances
of Pennsylvania are In a most satisfactory condition
The at the Treasury, from all sou'ces.forthe
fiscal year, ending on the 30th day of November, 1858,
were $4,139,778 85; and the expenditures, for kll pur
poses, during the same time,, were $3,776,667 06. Leav

We have the sum of $783,415.84
But ''this la not all. The amount paid on the pablic

While the amount of rerenue. from the same
aonrce for the same period, was only
Making an. excess of expenditures over

from in the fntare, of $245,9'}6.fi2
This earn should, also, be credited to the operation
of the Treasury, daring the year, for it wan an extraor
dinary expenditure, which cannot again occur; and
was. in fact, a reduction of the liabilities of the Common
wealth, to that extent.
If we add this sum to the amount of debt paid, and tbo
excess of cash on hand, we have for the year, a balance
In favor of the receipts, over the ordinary expenditures,
amounting in the aggregate to $1,031,382 38.
But from thin, however, should be deducted the ex

the real debt of the Commonwealth at this time, fuoded
wud aufauded, lO.
To meet thin, besides the ordinary sources of public
reveuue, lL>' St-to owns bonds received from the -aleof
the public works, aud which I have every reason to
believe, are well secured, amounting to eleven milliona
one hundred and eighty-one dollars. Deducting this
from the outstanding debt, it leaves to be otherwise
provided for. the sum of twenty eight millions eighty
seven thouKsod one hundred and eleven dollars snd
sixteen cenu.
It is believed t hit', with the existing sources of revenue
and the oh-nwuuce of strict economy, this sum may be
reduced, duriug the current year, at least one million of
dollars
The present would seem to be the appropriate time
—when our Nation is at peace and when health and
reasonable prosperity prevail within our owu bor
ders,—to greatly reduce the public debt. We have
but to carefully husband our legitimate resources,
avoiding extravagant and unnecessary appropria
tions, and practising a proper economy in all the
departments of the Government, to reader the entire
extinqaisbment of oar debt a fixed fact witbiu a very
brief period. To carefully guard the public treasury at
this interesting ppoch iu our financial history is bo
manifestly the duly of IV public authorities, that I
cannot for one moment beh ve that ruy other police
will be proposed. It there be any, who, relying on the
improved condition of the finances of the State would
encourage the adoption of new schemes for depleting
the Treasury, or would cut off the sources of our pre«
ent revenue, aud thus reduce it, let all such efforts
coming irom whatever quarter they may.be sternly
resisted. Let Pennsylvania be just before abe is gen
erou.s Let our good example be a light iu the path
way of our Hister States, as well as sn admonition to
our own local governments. This is due alike to the
favors which Providence hits so bountifully bestowed
upon us, and to that high character for honeHty and
nte. vity which has ever distinguished 'be people of
this good old Commonwealth. 1 ‘

Pennsylvauia, the influence of the Executive has been Hennßjlvania
greatly reduced by the transfer of patronage from the
Governor to the people. This le in accordance with the
principles of self-government, bntitmst beacknowledzed
that in relieving the Executive from many serious
responsibilities,!! has diminished his ability to maintain
the rights of the State against Federal and other
eucroachments, and has thrown a greater-share of
responsibility upon tho people. The extensive patronage
of the federal government, and the large salaries paid to
its offloers, in comparison with those of the stato, pre
sent constant Inducements to our citizens to overlook
tho statu in pursuit of more lucrative employments
uuder the the United States. It Is, therefore, tha more
mremary that th* people should guard the sovereignty
of the state with increasing watchfulness. The constitu
tion of the Uuited States coutaius the great fundamental
principle which should govern its construction on every
question respecting the extent of the federal power. ‘‘The
powers not delegated to the United States by the conuti
jutioo, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to
the states respectively, or to the people.” It Is on this
broad platform that every claim of federal power not
granted by tho constitution, should be sternly resisted
The tendency to coutralizailou is so great, and the over
shadowing influences of power and patronage so seduc
tive, that iibeity cannot long be preserved without the
exercise of sleepless vigiluuce in enforcing a strict
construction of the federal compact The doctrine of
state rights is the doctrine of true liberty. Popular
sovereignty is the life-blood of our free institutions, and
the palladium of our safety. Every patriotic inducement
to suKUin.thoKe great principles should be fearlessly held
out to our pitizens. aDd every unauthorized assumption
of power should ho reeisfct d wjth unceasing euerßV. aud
by all constitutional means
Having now discharged the duty imposed on the Exe
ootlve, by the constitution, 1 cannot conclude without
congratulating j«u upon the peculiarly favorable aus
p»“es under which you Miter upon the duties of the
£>*•88100 of 1859. Few important subject* of legislation

—a watchful regard Jor ibo interests of tho Common

Providence, to ensure tho continuance and increase of
our onward prosperity. Pennsylvania may thou, at no
remote period, rejoice in the extinguishment of her pub

Horrible Cruelty.— A horrible instance of
cruelty to a child has been developed in
Baltimore. The Patriot, of Jan. 3, says: “A
little boy, named William Wallace, aged about
eight years, died at the residence of his step
father, William Russell, on Thompson street,
near Aisquith. on Saturday morning. From
the manner in which the poor child has been
treated by Russell and his wife, some of the
neighbors deemed an investigation of the
causes which produced death necessary, and
Coroner S|iarklin was called upon to hold an
inquest over the body. Dr. H. P. P. Yates
made a post mortem examination, and, in
giving his evidence to the Jury, stated that on
ooening the body he found the lungs, heart,’
and all other organs in a healthy condition,
there being no indications of consumption or
fever. On opening the stomach it was found
empty, with the exception of one or two small
pieces o( what appeared to be parts of an apple.
There were in the bowels a few hard balls
The stomach was shrivelled up, and there vas
every appearance of a want of nourishment.
He gave' the opinion that the boy had died
of starvation.” ’ !

?wom statement of David M’Crcary, of Napier town
ship, Bedford county;
In April, 1856, as near as I can rememler, a small pim
ple made its appearance on my upper lip. which soon be
came entiuged and sore. I used poultices of sorrel and a
wash of blue vitriol, without effect. Finding the sore ex
t-Ddmg, I called on Dr. Elv. of Scbeilslmrg. who pro
nounced it CANCER, aud prescribed a wash of of
lead and bread poultices. Finding these remedies "of no
avail, I called upon Dr. Shaffer, of David-ville. Somerset
county, who also pronounced the disease Cancer, and gave
me internal and external remedies— the latter consi-ting
principally of caustic; but all to no purpose, as tbe dls*
ease continued tpr-ading toward tbe nose I next used a
preparation • f arsenic, in th- form of salve. This for a
time checked the disease, but the inflamnntion soon in
creased. I nest called upon Dr. Sutler; of St. Clairaville,
Bedford county, who also pronounced the di-ea-e Cancer,
and applied a salve said to be a never-tailing remedy, but
it had ao effect whatever iu checking tbe spread of the
sore. In December, of the same year, the diseas- hid
eaten away a greater part of my upper lip, and bad at
tacked the nii«e, when I went to Cincinnati where I con
suited Prof. R. S. Newton, of the Eclectic Medical College.
Ho prouounced tbe disease •* a cutaneous Cancer, super
induced by an inordinate use of mercurj’.” lie applied
mild zinc ointment, and give me Internal remedies. My
face healed up. but the inflammation was not thoroughly
removed. Iu February, 1857, he pronounced me cured,
aud I left for home. In April the disease again returned,
and so violent was the pain that I could not rest at night!
Late in May I. returned to Cinciunati, and again placed
myself under the charge of Dr. Newton, with whom I re
mained until September, during which time he used every
known remedy, and partly succeeded in checking the die
ease, but when I returned home there were still three dis
charging ulrora upon my face. I continued using New
ton's preparations, and also medicine that I got from Dr.
Ely. hut the Cancer contfnaed growing until It had eat off
the left side of my nose, the greater portion of my left cheek,
arid had attadeed my left eye. I had given up all hope of
ever belog cured, since Dr. Ely said he cnold only give
relief, bot that a cure was impossible. In March, 1868, I
bought a bottle of *• Blood Searcher;” bat I mnst cqpfess
that I had no faith in it. I was very weak when I com
menced taking It; but I found that I gained strength day
by day, and also that the ulcers commenced drying op. I
continued, and when tbe third bottle was taken my face
was healed as if by a miracle. I used a fourth bottle, and
I have been healthier since than I have been for the last
seven years. Although my face is sadly disfigured, lam
still grateful to a benign Providence who has spared my
lit*?, and which has been done through tbe Instrumentality
of Limdsxt's Improved Blood Ssabcoer. 3
