101? STATE TRitilanik
ER.
The Reptiblican caucus nominee for
State Treasurer, R W. MAcssr, was
4A , Notil
defeis ed'in .fie' jouit'"con ii tion,
MCdnesday of last - week, by a coinbi
nation, composed of the united Dem
ocratic mem bers -of the Legislature,
joined with a squad of bolting Re-
publicans: This &train , :
dinary and unexpected, and was
brought nbont by means so corrupt
and flagranti as •to invest it with a
consequence of much greater magni-
trade than as to who shall be the oc
cupantof the office.
Whether Mr.-114cssr shall be State
Treasurer, or whether (len. Thaw
shall occupy the position, is not a
matter of public importance, provid
ed the finances of the State are man
aged with equal probity and efficien
cy, but the manner in which the elec
tion of either is secured, becomes of
great consequence, when publicknor-
I ality is outraged, and the interests of
the party are' sacrificed to advance
the personal schemes of either, or of
their adherents. The contest for the
office for weeks past has been con
ducted in a shameful and profligate
manner, so far as the opposition to
Mr. MACKEY is concerned, and, the
consummation should meet with the
earnest. rebuke of every honest Inan
and every sincere Republican.
Mr. 3lAcFsi has discharged the du-
Sea of the office during his incum
beniv, with much 'Credit to himself,
and with regard to the interests of
the Commonwealth. It has been ap
parent for \ some time that a cointina
tion of knavilk speculators n had been
formed to obtain control of the pub
lic Treasury, foirsonal objects,
whose tactics have been to raise the
cry of "corruption" 'and "treasury
ring" as a screen to .hide. their own
dishonest and unprincipled designs.
Whilst thus assailing the State Treas
urer, who depended upon his honest
and skillful management of the State
finances, for his official vindication,
the plotters have been engaged in the
most nefarious schemes, and have
been arranging the most extraordin
ary combinations, to break down the
Republican organization, and set
aside the will of the people, as ex
pressed through their representatives.
We are aorry to be obliged to add
that prominent in this unholy scheme
were men who have enjoyed the con
fidence of the Republican party, and
who should have been the last to
have • lent themselves to plots and
machinations which endanger the
Republican majority in the Legisla
ture, and
. probably our ascendency
in the State.
The movements of these schemers
against the integrity of the party and
the honor of the Commonwealth were
well known; the bargains they were
striving to make, were no secret. The
Pittsburg Gazette gave a full expose on
the 10th inst., before the election of
State Treasurer, in an article from
which we extract the following that
our readers may. see what the bargain
has been:
And here is 'what the Opposition are willing to pay
by way of a price for that present and future pro.
ponderenee at Harrisburg which the popular voice
has denied to them. They propose to buy Me control
of what the people have hitherto regarded as a Re
publican Senate. They make no disguise of their
belief in the corruptibility of at least two Republican
Senators, chosen as these were from some of the•
most radically Republican districts of the Common
wealth, and they have even already publicly and im
pudently disclosed the nature of the consideration
to be paid:
First, A large son ef money, estimated at $lOO,OOO,
more than half of *Web has been already raised. iv set
apart for, primarily. the defeat of the Philadelphia
police bill, and,,sccondarily, for the control of the
Senate.
Second. The)' offer to bring their fifty-four Demo
cratic votes, in the joint convention of the two hon
es, this week, to Me aid *fait-teem Republican bolters,
if they can seduce so many, to defeat the regular
nominee for State Treasurer, and to elect Isirts,
whose competition Was blown up sky-high in thecau
cum last week by the exposure of actual bribery at
tempted. and probably consummated, by one of his
wealthy outside friends in his behalf.
Third. They offer to guarantee, with the same
Democratic aid, the success of a new county project
which has been, for a'year or two past, seeking the
legislative countenance in the north-western quarter
of the State.
Foura. They pledge themselves to give the same
emocratic support to the proposition for a swin
dling raid upon the Sinking Fund of the Common
wealth. in the pretended Interests of an enlargement
of the Erie Canal.
Thus we have stated the Democratic purposes and
the price -which they are ready to pay, inderd hare so
pledged theskdres, if rumor be not false, to soompllsh
them.
To this indictment, add, that .the
two contested seats in the Senate are
to be decided in favor of the Demo
crats, giving the bolting Senators the
controlling vote in that body ; and it
is easy to understand why the Dem
ocrats were marshalled iu a body for
Inwrs, and why some of thorn we're
coerced, by threats of personal vio
lence, to vote against their personal
inclinations.
It is notorious that the Most open,
flagrant corruption ever practiced in
Harrisburg,was disclos'd and attempt.
ed to be employed by the combina
tion seeking the defeat of the Re
publican candidate; so notorious was
it, that the checks offered and paid
as the price of votes were known to
be ill the possession of partici at the
Capital. These disgracefnl acts were
the means employed by a . combina
tion whose extraordinary professions
of public virtue were simply disgust
ing, and whose pretext of opposition
to ntexEr was based upon consider
ations of public morality. It is but
fair to add that .no charges of at
tempting to use improper influences
are charged upon Mr. MAcsEr or his
friends—as they stood upon his rec
ord as an officer, and upon his almost
unanimous endorsement in the Re
publican caucus.
We'insist that it is the duty of ev
ery Republican journal io repudiate
this unholy coalition, and to denounce
as traitors and renegades the men
who have been concerned iu it,. The
Republican party is , not responsible
for the disgraceful scenes in the joint
Convention, for the iniquity that pre-.
'ceded it, not for, the baleful conse
quences which ~may follow. That
party bad its candidate, to which all
that 'vas honorable in its organization
faithfully ahem!. That the party

were such as to leave, a stain' upon
every professed Republican concern
ed in it. Every Consideration of pub

THE AMERICAN BISHOPS AT ROME
It is a noteworthy fact that the
most illiberal of the Roman, Catholic
clergy are of the American 'Church.
The priesthood of Spain is noulore
uncatholic, in the broad sense of 'the
word, than the RoiMsh priesthood of,
our country. There is, of course,
once in a while, a roystering; jolly
priest, as gay and festive, and as un
canonical as the irregular Prior Ayl
mer in the story 'of Ivanhoe. These
are exceptions, the general rule being
'es we have stated.
And now we have itofrom the best
of authority that the American Bish
ops at the Ecumenical Council blind
ly follow the lead of the Pope, ac
knowledging in advance his complete
infallibility, and showing. no more in
dependence and spirit than so many
sheep. This is what was to have been
expected from thefAmexican Bishops.
It is but the logical result of their
well earned reputation at home. If
the Council shall be anything more
than :an assemblage of the monks of
the dark ages; if it shall do anything
of more importance to mankind than
the hurling of an impotent hull
against a comet, it will not be because
of the influence of the American Bish
ops. It will be in spite of them. and
against their diluvian utterances that
there isn't going to be - much of a
storm anyhou: !
.An (attempt was made last week in
the Legislature, to increase the sala
ry of the Governor' from $5,000 to
$7,000. This attempt was very prop
erly defeated, though it received a
majority of votes in the Senate. In
the House it was rejected by a small
majority. It was once mom brought
up on Tuesday forenoon, but again
failed by a tie vote. It is not likely
it will be revived, as the Constitution
specifies that the salary of. the Gov
ernor cannot be increased or dimin
ished during his term of office.
We feel quite certain that an im
mense majority of the people of the
State will approve of the action of the
Legislature in refusing to increase
the salary. It may be that $5,000 is
not suffiicient for the proper support
of a Governor of Pennsylvania, but
we do not believe it. It has answer
ed for governors heretofore, and the
present incumbent accepted the posi
tion with the full knowledge of what
his salary would be. Any increase
at the present time, would not only
have been against popular feeling,
but positively injurious to the Repub
lican party, which has been the advo
cate of economy and reform. Besides
any reason that can be given for in
creasing the Governor's salary, would
be equally appliCablele the salaries
of other State officers, and thus an
indefinite expense be entailed upon
the State, with the added evil in all
prol: ability, of e departure, on tbe
part of our officials, from ilia; sy, stem
of simplicity and economy which is

A proposition tntrcidoced by Mr. Puss of Macon
in, to increase thenumber of the members of the
House of Representatives under the next apportion,
meet was killed by .a very decisive vote on Thursday
last-6t to let.
Both Houses of Congress are flooded with petition*
praying for the- abolition of,ttu3 flanking
The members imemiliaposeed to grant the prayer of
the petitioners, as much on amount of the relief It
will be to the members themselves, as from a tlist
Bition to economise In the, puhlitt,saytenditurtu. A
member of the Senate, Mr. Carpenter, forcibly re-
marked the other day while prepe.ntiag a petition for
the abolition of the franking privinge, that the same
mail that brought the petition brought about twenty
letters asking for public documents to be sent under
his frank. and that if his constituents desired west
short the printing of these doeninents, and abolish
the franking privilige at the same time, tt wonld.not
only be a measure of great economy, in the stoppage
of the printing of public documents and their circu
lation through the mails free among the ;wept°, but
would lessen the labors of members of Congress very
materially and afford them great relief. This le a
view of the subject. which has probably not been
considered by all the petitioners.

Him who controls alike, the destinies

. The-settlement of. the ,vesed ques
tions growing out of the srmed con
flict with-treason, devolves a mighty
responsibility on the loyal Men of the
land. Armed'rebellion.was signally
crushed by the force of armed loyalty,
and the government has triumphant
ly established its ability successfully
to suppress domestic insurrection,
however g igantic. The war itself has
served to stimulate our people to fresh
energies, and to the development of
new enterprises.. Our manufact4ies
have multiplied, plenty has stilled
upon our fields, and blessed the labors
of the husbandman. Peace has restor
ed our!peopl© to their homes, and
cheered our firesides. The ,rates of
taxation have been reduced, 'and are
entirely abolished upon real estate
for the - nse of . the Commonwealth.
Our State debt is being steadily and
surely liquidated. Immense sums
have been paid for pensions and oth
er charities.- The cause of education
has advanced, and the institutions
for the support and tuition of the
soldiers' orphans have been liberally
supplied. Railroads have been con
structed, and new material resources
developed. And thus our State and
Nation are rapidly progressing in the
attainment of those elements of great
ness which have already placed our
country in the foremost rank of the
powers of the earth. The great rail
road which binds our State to thefar
west, and it in turn to the oriental
nations, has been completed, and all
our efforts to add to -our material
prosperity 'have been- crowned with ,
unparalleled success.
it was my privilege to announce
from this stand.three years ago, the
principles which vtould guide me in
-the' administration of the office -of
Governor. At that time I dwelt up
on and expressed my views in: refer
ence to all questions then occupying
a share of public attention. I have'
since, from time to time, in messages
to the Legislature, set forth the sum
dition of the State, recommended such
measures an I, deemed expedient and
calculated to advance her interests,
and expressed my views upon the va
rious topics of the day that -were of
State or National importance. And
liaving fully reflected thereon, I am
the more confirmed therein, and know
of \ no reason why I should not en
dorse and reiterate them as hilly, on
this occasion, as if I again promulg,a
ted them\word tor word. And now,
ackowledging my responsibility in its ,
broadest sense, as a representative,
to my constituents, and considering
the magnitude or-the interests which
have again been committed to my
charge, I feel it is &foto the people
and incumbent upon Myself, to refer
them to the documents indicated, for
an outline and general policy which
is intended San guide for the\incom
ing administration, rather than en
cumber this address, or unneceharily
delay this audience with their repeti
tion. I have no new pledges to make,`
but confidently refer to the record of
my past life, as evidence at least of
my zeal and devotion to the best ins
terests of my State and country, and
for the rectitude Of my intentions.—
And although the ability which I bring
to the dischargesuch of high
duties may be limited, I shall confi
dent) rely upon the kind indulgence
of my fellow citizens and upon a con
scientious effort to uphold unblemish
ed, and transmit untarnished to my
successor in office, and to posterity,
thelair fame and good name of our
_magnificent old Commonwealth.
, Difficulties of no ordinary character
constantly surround your Executive
officer in the discharge of the many
duties devolving upon him, concern
ing each of which there may be con
flicting opinions. It being, therefore,
impostible to satisfy all, his only
safeguard is te adopt, and act in ac
cordance with those sterling and
beneficent maxims to which the early
fathers gave: utterance, -which have
been sanctioned by wisdom and ex
perience, and resulted in the rapid
growth and-prosperity of our institu
ticmdirect the liberty and happiness
of our people. •
the Constitution vests "the supreme
Executive power" of the State in the
Governoromd directs that "he shall
Ulm care that the laws be faithfully
-executed." The supreme earthly au
thority recognized by us therefore, is
the law—the rightfully determined
will of the people. "No citizen is so
exalted as to be above, and none is
so low as to be beneath itipower."—
The Executive is as much the subject
of the laws of the State as the hum
blest individual within its bordere.—
In pursuance of these principles, and
in the execution of the laws, I have
endeavored during my term of office,
faithfully to 'discharge every official
duty with a full reference to my sworn
,Obligation, and as I shall_ answer at
the laSt-&eitt daY. • '
It should:tie our earnest effort to
faithfully discharge rdl our 'obligations
and responsibilitiee, both as citizens:
and - magistrates. 'We should cease
to-tolerate anything as " politicyly

Owing to .the many efforts made on
:the part of free traders for the ,abol-.
.iSliment Of the , ,natUrid and • whole
'some,protection.-now afforded to . our
.hoine . IndustTy, and tolabor, I consid
er it a subject which claims a portion
of-our. time and attention. If our
natural industry ,and natural produc- ,
tions, represented by thousands of
factories, tuines, and other sources of
labor, are to be preserved, there
should be.. no reduction .of duties,
which shall enable the underpaid and
overworked population: \ of the Old
World o flood our. States , with the
Preduct of their mines at the cost of
our destruc ion. The. articles thus
admitted Would underSoll the prod
ucts of our ertizuns at ourvery doors,
and our facto would be closed, as
heretofore, :by Similar causes. This
will throW oat otemployment, thous
ands of industrious men, and entail
twin upon them and their, families,
merely for the benefit and aggrandize ,
meat of foreigt;c manufacturers and
capitalists. As' soon as our industri
al arms are paralyzed 'anti competi

command his own price, and it is thus
clear that the policy of free-trade can

interest, humanity' and justice for our
artizans and laborers, we-Should un

only earnestly legislate for the
benefit of capital, but for the toiling.
sous anddaughters of our country.
It should be our constant effort to
improve their social ccintlition, to ad- '
vance their intellectual status, and
above all to shield them from the de
struction which is threatened by the ,
enemies of protection to "our indus
tile! pursuits. , • '
In my several messages to the Leg
islature I have taken occasion to re
fer to a subject which I regard as of
paramount importance to the pros- I
peaty and even the stability of our
government. No nation can long ex
ist that attempts to violate any of its
obligations., The most prominent
amon ,, t'
these is, the faithful payment
of all our indebtedness. No good
reason can ha given'lor the repudia
tion of a single farthing. I said in
my message of January, 1868, "They,
people of Pennsylvania, ever true to
the Union, and. unswerving .in their
deternilnation to preserve its honor,
integrity and perpetuity, are proud
"and free to assert the imeredness of
the national debt, and that its ulti
mate payment in.full must be sectir
ed." In my message of 1869, I call
ed attention to the same subj
these words: "The voice of Pennsyl
vania, as Well as that of a. majority of
the States, has.at the ballot-boirpro
claimed to the world that allow na
tional indebtedness, no matter how
heavy the burden, will be paid ac
cording to the letter and spirit of the .
agreements made and entered into at
the time the debt was contracted;
and thatin this, as. in all other re
spects, our individual and national
honor must and shall be preserved."
These sentiments, so clearly express-.
ed,.l have taken frequent occasion to
reiterate, and it affords me great sat
isfaction to observe .that many who
have.heretefore been hostile to, orsi
lent on.thie most important subject'
are becoming warm in their advoca
cy of the principles here enunciated.
Those who saved this Government
from the destruction designed by
treason, are they who will perpetuate
it as a blessing for future generations.
AU that is asked of the people is to
strengthen and uphold the hands of
the men who have been called to do
the work of reconstruction . , and *hen
thatwork is finished in the spirit in
whichit has been begun by the pres
ent National Administration, we _will
have a government and a country
mighty in their munificeuce, glorious
in their prosperity.. ,
The preservation df the peace and
quiet, of our country, i maintaining un
sullied our national honor and the
harmony of the Union, are among our
highest dnties. Let us encourage
every branch of home industry, ad
vance the true interests of moral,
physical and intellectual labor, and
reaching forward to the prize of the
manifest destiny of our glorious Corn-'
menwealth,-*e may hope for her in
creasing prosperity, and above all for
the smiles of an approving Provi
dence.
I earnestly invoke a continninceof
the blessings and favors winch we as
a people have enjoyed, that ninnvl
varda may be ever ready to extend
her sympathies to those struggling
for liberty, CO succor the helpless ex
ile, and be an asylum to the persecu
ted and oppressed, and thus forever
identify herself with the cause of
equal rights and with the interests of
universal freedom, justice and. humun
ity. Then can we with . truth and
propriety proclaim, "Long live the
Commonwealth," whose guiding prin
ciples are found in the , Motto of our
State, "Viarcr, LIBERTY AND INDEPEN
