To pay the principal and interest of this

the Commonwealth holds the following inort-.

By adding this sum to the amonnillidd on
the. public debt from December 1.1867; to De
cember 1, 1860, to wit: $1,911, 890 72 it will
be found.that during the past thief, yeare the
State has not only met all her liabilities, in
cluding all the expenses of the government,
and the interest on her public debt,, but hits
diminished her actual indebtedness the slim of

When it is remembered that for the, last
three years the tax on real and. personal es•
tate has been but two and a half mills on the
dollar, while froni 1844 to 1857 it was three
....,mills—that.for the past twa.years and six
menths the _State has received no part of the
tax on tonnage due from the. Pennsylvania,
railroad company—and that since July ; 1859,
the interest on tha bonds held by, the State
agsinet the Sunbury and Erie railroad conitpaf.
ny has remained due and unpaid, Wits: cer
tainly cause for hearty congratulation, that,
' without aid from these iMportant sources ef
revenue, so great a redtioticin . bf the public
debt has been accomplished in-comparatively'
so short a period. The fundetl-dobt .of the
_State is now lees than it has,been since
.1842,
- ' and the unfunded and floating debt,' Which at
that- time amounted to upwaras of two millions'
of dollars„ has leen almost entirely redeemed.
