9ergtmoz4.taty's message, presented to the
Legislitute t(Aay, is a very full aid interesting
resitieul'ef aflairs of the State".
The ,reCelPto of the Treasury
. during the
fisesd y/g.amounteino $6,254,036 65, and the
exPenseek to $4,853,774 . 10, leaving a balance
fra llie,Tteasury, November 30t1), of $1,460, ,
$B2 41). The pta6nt4fate debt is $32,814,540 95,
a retUction for tile year of $412,406 18. ' The
Lel* erednetion during Governer Geary's ad
initAtration has been' $4,889,i3138 82, an an.:
nu j stLviog, at., five per cent., 0f:4224,493 44.
The'Governor recommends that the whole
receipts and payments on account of the
State - Aebt be concentrated in the, hands of
sbeBittd3.fng Fiord Commissioners. He also
sires:the -increase of the
• salary of the State
Treasurer, , andoakes a very strong exhibit of
the; &moralization incident to the present,
method 'of electing and paying that officer.
The' reinaiks of the Governor on this point
deserve the gravest attention.
On the subject of Common Schools, the
inessage is full , and interesting. There are
8115i1b3,pupiis instructed by the State, at a
cost of $3,500,104 26 for tuition, and for ex
pedithres of all kinds $6,086,148 92. There
are still 750 1 00 children attending no schpol,
whii are properly referred to as " the , prolific
source froM which the , ininates of our prisons
and penitentiaries are Supplied." There are:
also 85,000 in private schools.
The soldiers' orphan schoids occupy a prong-
Bent position in the Governor's message. 4,509
children in all have been admitted, and 878
discharged, leaving 3.631 11017 V in the schools.
101 applications are yet on ,file. The'conditiona
of the scheols is reperted as• being remarkably
good: , The Governor aslui for $533,500 for the
support of this Department, and pays a Well
deseived cOripliment to • the efficiency of the
offiberOzid teachers engaged in the charge of
theselivardS of the State. •
The military affairs ;of the State, are pre
sented, the message referring, with commenda
ble pride, to the increased martial activity dis
played, especially in Philadelphia, and a proper
compliment• is paid to retiring Adjutant-Gen
eral McCreary..
The message recommends the establishment
of soM6State 'provision for disabled soldleis.
This patriotic suggestion, frequently urged
both b'y Governor Curtin and his successor, is
based upon a desire to do justice to the
wounded .heroes of the war. We propose to
refer to it hereafter.
The creation of an Insurance Department is
recommended, and its advantages to insurers
and to the revenues of the State are pointed
out:
The Avondale disaster is eloquently alluded
lio, and the Legislature is urged to establish a
system of. ining inspection which shall regu
late the construction, ventilation and working
of mines, with a view to the preservation and
comfort of the oparatives.
The Board of Public Charities having been
just etiablislied, is only briefly alluded to.
A geological and mineralogical survey of
4hc State, is recommended, and also the addi
tion to the duties of the State Librarian, of the,
collection of 'statistical infoimation relating to
the various resources of the State.
The, second report of the Commissiodr of
Prison• Discipline is presented, containing a
large amount of important information, and
showing,iunnY defiCiencies yet existing in our
prison management.
The , :G/tiv,eil . mr alludes to, the increase i pf the
duties of Abe judiciary, and recommends the
appoititinent . .of •an additional jturge for the
seisi prime coat' at Philadelphia.
A brief and suitable reference is made to the
decease of ex-Governors Ritner and Porter.
Upon the interesting topic, of pardons, the
GOvernor refers to 7 the growing disposition to
snake indiscriminate demands for the pardon
of almost every convicted criminal. During
the year 1,550 applications have been made,
and, greatly to Governor Geary's credit, only
sixty-two; or four percent., have been granted.
A detailed report of these cases is appended to
the message; giving the names of the petitioners
and the - grotinds - of-pardon.-- -We-shall refer to
this report hereafter.
The message, concludes with a glance at
national affairs,tahing strong grounds in sympa
thy with the enban insurrection; with an ex
pansion of the national currency, and a "eon
staid and natural approach to specie payment."
The document ig full of valuable suggestions,
eoucbed . in dignified language, and is entitled
to most careful perusal by the people of Penn
sylvania, and the most respectful attention of
the Legislatire:
THE STOWE-BYRON NASTINESS.
Admit that'
Mrs. Sto've's "True Story of
Lord Byron's Life" is a true story ; admit that
in ber new book just published Lady Byron is
wholly "vindicated" arid Lord Byron is wholly
convicted ; admit that she was a saint and, he
was a fiend, and what conceivable good has .
been effected by • Mrs. Stowe's publicationo
She has made a Sensation ; she and her pub;.
Fishers, have made money, and will make more ;
she has excited controversy; she has set hun
dreds of pe,ople to digging up old scandals;
she has set millions of young people,who never
beard of Byron; to reading his poems, his leco
ters, hig biographies and all the stories, true or
false, of his amours; she has inspired many
million'of magazine and newspaper readers—
younr*Omen as 'well as young men---with
a curious thirSt for knowledge concerning
illicit love, adultery and incest. The list of
results, immediate 'and remote, of Mrs. Stowe's
work as a "resurrectionist," might be indefi
nitely l extenda; but, for har of becoming
particeps efinflyst, we desist.
The neVi r pUblication on this sub,ject,. Mrs.
Stowe's "Xady Byron Vindicated," is sure to
have an igninense ,sale. - In, the course of a
journalisVis„Olavoldable duty, we have read it,
hut with much more repugnance in the progress
and miclTleSs,pleasitre in the completion, than
we findO'other performances of a journalist's
duty. 4n,Literary , . work, it is unworthy of
birs. Wow; ; - aS'ariargtiment of an advocate,
strivikg;iiliile.aefending one,pprty, to con , Ad
:toothier, it is clumsy ' and weak. The
satustd still . have, in :the minds
of very tail did rek.'ler, the benefit
Of.„. doubt_whicb .'often ..savea „ life
in criminal trials. Lord
,Bpoq was a shock
.fpgly bad man ; nobody denies it. But all
that, has beeliprinted bylldre4, StoWo and 'others
does not absolutely prove that be committed
tile particular and monstrous tin of Which she
accuses hini. ' Anil even VA, Were proved, why ,
Make.a, parade of .the proof f'l.Why advertise,
the vice ?' Why set . Millions 'of young people
to investigate the character; study the history,
and read the works of the abominable sinner?
Mrs.
of
answer to these questions would'
be, of cOurSe i It was for the sake of vindicating
Lady Byron. Inasmuch as. Lady Byron never
really needed a viiidicatoi until MM. Stowe ad.;"
vertised her as her injured friend,.the answer is
wholly unsatisfactory. All the stuff of Gitioci
oh's book, and all: the trash of English
' magazide gossips, never made the intelligent
public of Europe and America think otherwise
of I.,ady 'Byron than, as a highly intellectual •
and e*cellent woman, who bad, like so • many
other. ,intellectual and excellent women, made.
an 'unfortunate marriage and repented of it.
The: temper in which Mrs; Stowe has writ
temlier second work on Lady Byron—not •het
last; for there will be more on a theme that
paYs so' weli--:is shown in, its introduction,
which we.printed the other day.' It is further,
shown in some of the headings alter chapters,
which read like the little interjected "sub
heads" of a newspaper reporter's lirst-class
sensational article. One chapter is headed
"The Attack' on Lady Byron." Another. is
entitled ." esume of the Conspiracy;" and
in the opening sentence Mrs. 'Stowe Speaks
of "the conspiracy of Lord Byron againit
hiS Wife," forgetting that it takes more
than' one to make a conspiracy: So careful a
writer and aood a scholar would not have
'made this blunder, and many others, of. gram
mar and style,thatoCear in the book, ifshe had
been wholly in her right, mind, and Mit earrieil
away by a passionate' desire to vindicate her
self as well as her dead friend. Another dis
creditable, clap•trap title to a chapter is "The
attack on Lady Byron's Grave. :All these
headings illustrate the charaCter of the book,
anli add the thoughtful reader's disgUst with
the _whole scandal,,„ ,But further consideration
of it cannot be 'profitable orrigreeabletO writer
or reader. .
THE LEGISLATIVE INAUGURALS.
There are hopeful signs of the prevalence of
an improved atmosphere at Harrisburg, this
winter. It is true that the usual discreditable
and demoralizing wrangle is going on over the
bonne bouche of the Treasurership, the energies
and excitements 'developed by the contest
making unpleasantsuggestions that the office
is worth,a great deal more than it ought to be.
But apart from this, there are good reasons to
believe that the Legislative proceedings of this
winter are to lie conducted with that decorum
of manner and
,fidelity to duty which are, more
loudly than ever, demanded by the people of
Pennsylvania, at the bands of their representa
tives.
The inaugural speeches of Speakers Stinson
and Strang are brief, sensible and Satisfactory.
The address of Speaker Stinson is summed .up
in the single sentence, "It matters little by
which recognized political parties we have been:
senkhere, if we all work together to pass only
such: laws as will make life and liberty More
secure, and such as will tend to advance the
interests of the ' State.". If the Senate will
honestly act up to this simple proposition, no
harm or dishonor can come to citizens or State.
Speaker, Strang utters an equally wholesome
truth,when he says : "'We nurit i not forget
that the people are our masters, and ifN7 obey
their clearly expressed will, looking to ourcon
stittients alone for counsel or control in
exercise of all our official duties, we shall ;not
only meet the approval of good men every
whet e, but will be able to extract the venom
from the fangs of those who, seeking a notoriety
which they can obtain in no other way, revel
in indiscriminate attacks on the public menof
the State, and connect themselves with the dif
ferent political parties only to hawk at and tear
them."
There are often members of the Legislature.
who aie the people's humble servants" until
after the election, but Who are apt to forget
their relations to the public, when once seated
at Ilan isbing. • The frequent repetition of the
lessons of the ballot-box has little influence to
convince such gentlemen of their 'real subor
dination to the people, and ; as a consequence,
they blunder along in their fancied supremacy ,
for a session or two, and are then sent to the
tear by their masters whom they have failed to
recognize, serve or Obey. ,
The new Legislature starts with the advan
tage of at'least a partially restored public con
fidence. It hat3-Selected experienced . and 'able
officers in all its principal departments. If it
will strive-honestly to keep down corruption;
to break up the " Ring" business ; to pass none
but wise and fair laws,-it-willsecure for itself
its highest recompense in the preservation of
the self-respect of its Members, and the appro
val of the people of Pennsylvania. Welleartily
hope that the standard of Legislative' morals
indicated in the inaugural addresses of the two
Speakers will be realized and maintained. If
it is, it will bring benefit to the State, honor
to the members, and perpetuity and strength
to the dominant party.
The last report from Paraguay, by way off
Rio Janeiro, represents that Lopez has been
driven from the country, and has taken refuge
with his farnily in Bolivia.. , The Brazilian
Commander-in-Chief, the Count d'Ett, was
expected at Montevideo with most of. the
army; and the war was considered virtually at
an end. It is to be hoped that there will be
no contradiction of this,report ; for the contest
has been bloody, costly and long. But Lopez
is as obstinate as he is ambitions, and Unless
the victorious allies show wisdom in aiding to
construct a new government for the Paraguay
ans, he will be back in the country with a
fresh band of followers.

ITALIAN OPICEA AT THE ACADEMY
—The Ricci Ilrothers' melodious comic opera, Crispin°
e to Comore, Weepresented at the Academy of Music last
night, by the members'of Maretzek's Italian Company.
The performance was in all respects satisfactory. Ron
cold, in the part of the" Shoemaker," of course carried
off the highest honors. File impersonation has rather
gained than lost in excellence with time. lie plays still
with so much vivacity, boldnese and intelligence, with
so much rollicking, jolly humor, and ho sings so cleverly
that he makes good his title to position, as the finest
hullo singer upon the stage. The secret of hie Immense
comic power lice, we think, chiefly in the extraordinary
facility nf his • facial expreseion. •The Oddity and
gracefulness of his gestures contribute immensely
to the success of his efforts; but his face deplete
every shade ol' emotion incident to the part with such
exagociated humor. that we should understand him
completely if he were acting in pantomime. The quccese
of any law comedian may be nieueured in a great de
gree by his power in this respect ; and to ite posseision
and intelligent use, combined with his vocal gifts and
culture, Signor Renewal owes. hie high

with others now In operation or being constructed, one
of the great trunk lines from Lake Superior, via ht.

A good index of the prosperity and wealth of the

by individuals residing along the line in pushing
on, one hnared and sixty miles of the work, and it i s
also a strong proof of the local opularity and necessity

J. A. Pollard on the Sittuttion in VIII..
Oaf n.
(Special Despatch to Ma Phillidelobta Evening Bulletin.]
NVAstirsirms; Jan. s.—This morning's In
telligemer contains a well-written Cottimtinica
lion from _Edward A. Pollard On 'the political
condition of Virginia and the course which
the „writer thinks the Democrats and Con
servatives ought to pur'ne. 1t takes strong
ground against the admission of Virginia at
theolpr6sent - tinre, - alleging t the State will
be kept tinder the control o e radical party
if she comes in upon the con Pions demanded.
The Conservative party, ho says, hai been
sold out by Governor Walker, who .agreed,
during the Gubernatorial canvass, that if he
was once elected, and the State was admitted
into the, Union, he would place himself more
squarely on . Conservative and Democratic
ground than expediency made it politic for
him to do during the canvass.
This promise, Pollard amerts, will undoubt
edly be: broken, as Walker's course is such
that nothing can be expected but perfidy from
him in future. The .Trelelliyencer t commenting
on this letter editorially, says : "Virginians,
resiStanco in • folly. Mr. Pollard's
advice, though doubtless well meant,
is not, calculated to help you
out of your present difficulties. You are in the
hands of brigands. Pay your ransom, ana get
away from them on the best terms you , may,
or worse may befall.' God knows, Butler' ie
bad enough,•but :New England can produce
plenty of men even more hypocritical and
cruel than Butler, audit we mistake not, these
men will be avalanched upon you in- case fog
make any further stand,"

ATTEMPTED ROLBERT • AND MURDER: -
This Morning, about two o'clock, two men
were discovered in the house of John Alle
good, on Wharton street, above Third. A
daughter of Mr. Allegood—a young lady—got
awake, and • was surprised to find the gas
burnit ' , in her room. At the same time she
heard footsteps outside. She got out. of bed
and opened the door. There she observed two
men. As she was shoot to give an alarm she
was seized and thrown violently to the floor.
She made a stout resistance, when
one of the ruffians drew a large knife
and made a• lunge at her... The blade
struck the side of - her. neck, causing an ugly
gash. She was then struck with some blunt
instrument and fell to the floor insensible. As
her body is bruised in various places, it is sup
posed that she was stamped upon by her MS
sailaDtt.;. In the struggle with the scoundrels,
nearly all of her clothing was torn from her
person. A young lady visitor, who occupied
the same bed with Miss Allegood, heard the
scuttle and raised an alarm. The villains then
made a hasty exit from the house,aud escaped.
An examination of the house showed that the
gas was lighted in all of the lower rooms, but
nothing had been disturbed, except in the
kitchen, where the table contained various
dishes, Which the intruders bad used in dis
posing of a supper which they, had prepared
for themselves. There was no visible
deuce of how au entrance to the premises had
been effected. Miss Allegood is undergoing
medical treatment, and her injuries are of a
serious character.
