THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE.
The sixth annual message of Governor
Curtin will beread throughout our Com
monwealth with the most unfeigned
satisfaction. That Pennsylvania should
have emerged from the fearful civil strife
f the past years, in which she has borne
so noble a part, not only with unim
paired strength but with increased pros
perity,is a solid cause for congratulation.
Through all this crisis of our national
history, the Governors of the loyal
States have occupied positions of the
most onerous and harrassing responsi
bility, and in nearly every instance the
responsibility has been faithfully and
bravely met. We have had one or two
unfortunate exceptions, such as Sey-.
mour of New York, where the Guberna
torial office has been used only to clog
and hamper the efforts of the Govern
ment to suppress the rebellion, but such
cases are happily very few.
In the message just sent to the Legis
lature by Governor Curtin, we have a
condensed and well-digested statement
of Pennsylvania's share in the war for
the Union, and we _ read it with just
pride and satisfaction.. We learn that,
in spite of the heavy drain of the war,
our finances have then so well managed
and our resources so well developed, that
our State Treasury is in a far better con
dition than when GOvernor Curtin as-•
sumed the duties •of his office. On the
30th of November,: 1860, the liabilities in
excess of assets were $26,408,168, and at
the same date in 1865, they were $23,-
852,589, Showing a reduction of the sur
plus debt of $2,555,579 during his admin
istration. We learn further, that in ad
dition to militia and naval enlistments,
Pennsylvania actually furnished
362,284 men to the armies of
the Union, and that these troops were
put in the field with a promptness and
efficiency of condition that called out
the encomiums of the Government at
Washington, of the commanders of the
army and Governors of other States.
The first troops that reached Wash
ington in the perilous crisis of the spring
of 1861 were Pensylvanians, and when
the capital of the nation was the second
time threatened, after the battle of Bull
Run, the regiments of the Pennsylvania
Reserve Corps were the first troops sent
forward. Pennsylvania was the rock
upon which the' invading waves of the
rebellion burst with their fiercest fury,
and our loyal Governor, with a loyal
people at his back, rendered noble ser
vice to the whole country in beating
back the tide' of war from our borders,
until at Gettysburg the rebellion met its
aleath-blow.
We do not propose to go into any .de
tailed review of Governor Curtin's mes
sage. It is filled with wise and practical
suggestions, looking towards the greater
prosperity of the State, and the welfare
of various classes of our citizens. It has
special regard to the claims of our sol
diers upon the General Government,
which have not yet:been recognized nor
discharged. It does not forget those`who
have been bequeathed as a precious
legacy to the State, the orphans of the

fallen h :roes of the war. The whole
line of policy whit).- it indicates is
enunently prirdent ,and patriotic, the 1
result of long experience in the difficult
work of governing a great Common- ,
wealth like ours. 1
From the outset of, the rebellion ,Gover-
nor Curtin has devoted himself to the!
cause of his country and to the interests!
of the soldiers of Pennsylvania with al
persistent - earnestness that has won for!
him the proudest reward man can win,
the gratitude and affection of, a whole
great people. Entering upon his office:
with robust health, with his stalwart
frame in the prime of manly vigor, he!
will retire from it with health broken
down, enfeebled and prematurely aged !
by the cares and labors which have been,
devolved upon him. But he will carry;
with him the consciousness of duty well
done, with a record of patriotic and self-,,
denying service to his State and to his
country, and with the hearty apprecia
tion of those who have watched big,
career with admiration, and who will .
gladly give him the approving "Well
done, good and faithful servant!" when
his term of arduous service shall close.
SELF•BESPECT VEESIIS PAIIPERLSM
It will be remembered that some time
since Mr. Peabody, the famous English
banker, made a most munificent gift to
the "Poor of London." It appears that
the gift was accompanied by a stipula
tion that it should be so employed as to
render it reproductive, so that not the
present only, but future generations,
might share in its benefits. It was there
fore decided, after due consideration, to
expend the fund in the erection of model
lodging houses on a large scale, in which
the really deserving poor might be en
abled to obtain a decent home at a lower
rate than that which they commonly
pay for the most wretched accommoda
tions—a boon which few can fail to ap
preciate. The result has been that the
trustees have erected model lodging
houses in Spitalfields, to accommodate
two hundred persons; at Islington for
six hundred and fifty, and at Shadwell
for the same number ; while at Ber
mondsey and Chelsea erections of the
same kind on a similar extensive scale
are already in progress. An English
newspaper, from which we glean these
facts, says : "The amount of good thus
accomplished is not easy to over-esti
mate, while the plan adopted has the
advantage over ordinary charitable
schemes of not lowering the self-respect
of those who receive its benefits."
We like the spirit of the closing remark
of the English editor. Not only in
England, but in our own country, the
system adopted of affording relief to the
poor is such as to lower their self
respect and to pauperize them in body
and soul forever. Men or women who
spend a season in the Almshouse are
rarely ever anything but paupers for
the remainder of theirlives. They have
learned to look to the public for support;
they realize that they are paupers, self
respect has been lowered, ambition has
been quenched and the creature sinks
into hopeless pauperism. Upon the other
hand, set them at work and treat them
with decent consideration; let them feel
that although they are under a cloud
temporarily, they are earning their own
living, and they will probably emerge
from their misfortunes with a self-respec t
that will prompt them to push them
selves forward in the world, and a self
reliance that will sustain them and give
a profitable direction to their efforts for
self-support and self-dependence. It is
pitiful enough to visit an almshouse
where adult paupers are lodged; blank
white-washed walls; wooden forms;short
cut hair for both sexes;uniform garments
of the coarsest material; meals without
variety and partaken of with almost
mechanical regularity; an aimless ex
istence and a monotony of life that is
scarcely ever varied; these are the
marked peculiarities of all the alms
houses we have ever visited. Can it be
wondered at that their inmates sink
into the condition of poor degraded
creatures, without hope, without ambi
tion and without self-respect ? We re
peat that it is bad enough to see grown
men and women in this pitiable condi
tion of pauperism; but how much more
pitiable it is to . see tender children reared
amid such depressing influences? The
managers of too many charitable insti
tutions for youth fail to appreciate the
fact that children are not mere machines,
to eat their meals in gloomy silence, to
sit so many hours a day upon
wooden forms, to say certain set lessons
and to go to bed at a given hour to close
a cheerless day with a gloomy night.
They fail to appreciate that young minds
require to be stimulated, that young
hearts crave love and joy, that young
boys and girls have need of self-respect
and self-reliance and that these qualities
should be encouraged if they would not
have our charitable institutions made
mere nurseries of pauperism. We be
lieve that a larae proportion of ' the
persons who fill our Philadelphia Alms
house and the vagrant department of
our county prison would be better be
stowed in s, House of Correction, and
we know that' too many of our public
charities tend to the promotion of pau
perism by lowering the self-respect of
their objects and by discouraging self
reliance. '
A WRONG THREATENED.
Certain parties from this city are at
Harrisburg endeavoring to get the
Legislature: to pass a 'bill consolidating
the Board'of Revision of Taxes and the
City Commissioners. This would have
the effect of depriving the citizens of
Philadelphia of all the benefits of the
Board of Revision; for the City Com
missioners ' would be in the majority,
and we should have the old system, with
all its evils, perpetuated in an agga
vated form. We trust that the Legie
LT ETENIN4 B.
latnre will have ii, erey upon the
Philadelphia tax-paYers,- and will refuse
to listen to the appeals and eajoleries of
the inter( %ted rties who 'e trying, to
bring at
A fire y
whole or in' pare, five out of six of a
block of large warehouses and a great
quantity of valuable merchandize. The
stores destroyed and damaged were
among the most massive along the Dela=
ware front of the city. The facade upon
the river front was of ornamental iron
work, and the structures throughout
were constructed of the most substantial
materials. It is difficult to realize that
these buildings erected so recently as
1850, upon the ' very spot where, the
greatest conflagration that ever took
place in Philadelphia commenced,
should be constructed so carelessly that
when a fire broke out in one there was
nothing to prevent the spread of the
flames until the whole were in ruins or
greatly damaged. The want of simple
parapet walls, that would have cost but
a few thousand dollars when the build
ings were originally put up, has involved
a loss of hundreds of thousands proba
bly; for the flames would not have ex
tended beyond the store where they
originated had this precaution been
adopted. The present building law
forbids the erection of buildings without
protecting parapets, and there is con
sequently no danger of a penny-wise
and pound-foolish policy constructing
such colossal fire-traps in the future;
but there are other defects in the preva
lent modes of building which recent
destructive conflagrations have demon
strated, and for which the building law
provides no remedy.

We have already announced the ap
pointment of Judge Allison to take the
place of the lamented Judge Thompson
as President Judge of the Court of Com
mon Pleas. It is now officially an
nounced that William S. Peirce, Esq.,
has been appointed to fill the place made
vacant by the promotion of Judge Alli
son. Mr. Peirce is a well known mem
ber of the Philadelphia bar. He was
admitted to practice in June, 1845, and
during his twenty-one years of experi
ence he has won for himself the reputa
tion of being a sound lawyer and a con
scientiou, advocate. He is known to be
cautious and pains-taking, and his ap
pointment will doubtless he equally
satisfactory to the legal profession and
the public generally.
MB. PERELLI'S OPERA.—Concert Hall
has been tastefully arranged, with stage and
scenery. for a series of amateur operatic
'performances, under direction of Mr.
Perelli, the principal parts being taken by
his pupils. The first performance was
elven last evening, bafore a large and
fashionable audience. The opera was Cla
rissa Bar(owe, composed by Mr. Perelli,
which has been played in several European
cities. It is written strictly in the modern
Italian style, with numerous graceful melo
dies, several eflective concerted pieces, and
some good choruses. For a first represen
tation by amateurs, it had a very satisfac
tory success; and it will doubtless be much
better cone at the second representation,
next Tuesday. Miss Hewlett, who takes
the part of "Clarissa," has a beautiful flexi
ble soprano voice, which she manages ex
tremely well. Mr. Durand, Mr. Schmitz,
Mr. Nathans and Mr. Bourke, all did well.
The orchestra was a full one and was well
directed by Mr. Perelli himself. The ap
plause during the performance was frequent
and hearty.
