STATE ri.AXtES,
Notwithstanding the perpetual clanioi
of our Copperhead cotemporarics about
Black Republican extravagance, dishon
esty, &.C., says ?he Ilarrisburg Tehyraph,
it must be evident to all that the finances
and credit of the State were never in bet
ter condition than they arc now. During
the recent war over five millions of dol
lars were expciiJod by the Sute in extra
ordinary purposes co&ueoted with the con
test, and yet the old Keystoue, under Re
publican rule, emerges from the struggle,
not only Tith Ler credit unimpaired, but
viih her public debt actually diminished
over five millions of dolluis since 1SC1 ;
and this, too, after haviug repealed all
laws taxing real estate for State purposes.
Moreover, under Democratic adminis
tration of former years, from lti-11 Vi
I860, large amounts of the debts of the
Commonwealth had been fa'iingduc from
time to time, and no provision made for
its renewal, much less for its payment.
Jn I860 the aggregate of these overduo
loass of the State was some twenty-three
millions of dollars. The present Admin
istration promptly determined that this
reproach should be taken away, and in
January last adveitL-ed fo the redemp
tion of all these overdue obligations, and
succeeded in effecting an exchange of new
6ccuritics for the whole, at p3r. There
jfcre, therefore, none of the loans of the
Joans of the State due until July, ISC3,
when ato-ut tjro millions of dollars will
xnuturc.
Such is our financial record a a State
for the last six years. She has paid an f
e?tra war expenditure of five millions
She has paid over five millions more on
the debt bequeathed to her by former
Democratic Administrations. She has re
lieved, ber citizens from taxation on real
estate for Stute purjiOioa. She lias re
deemed ail her overdue obligations. She
meets all her current expenditures, aai
proclaims her willingness and readi&s to
in&:t ?td pay her next maturicg eblTgar
tious one year before they are due. On
this I'epubliean iiuaocul record we cheer
1'ully go to the poeple, and challenge all
our Copperhead calumniators fc d-j tLcir

GUAXT'S TKSTIJJOXY.
After the IIouso had ordered the im
peachment testimony t be submitti, mJ
before the arrival of the time for adjourn
ment had prevented the cxtcu'ion of the
order, several facts concerning tho evi
dence leaked out in tli! conversation of
certain members of the Committee, who
considered the order as equivalent to a
removal of secrecy. The principal points
of such conversations was in regard to
(he testimony given Ly Gen. Grant, two
days ago, aud completed to-day, but not
embraced in the printed volume. It ap
pears that the General was called by the
Dciuocmts, who were J.'J to Loliovo by
certain statements tf Col. Ilillyer that it
could be established that Grant had de
clared Liujsclf in favor of the President'
policy. The testimony of the General
was bo conclusive as to the fact that he
gave the strongest support to the recon
struction measures of Congress as against
the President that Democrats were greatly
disappointed and chagrined. To-day the
General appeared in the committee room
of his cwn accord and a'-ked to correct
and amend his evidence in certain par
ticulars, in justice to himself. This was
of course granted and he went on'to say
that siucc testifying, two days ngo, he had
had a conversation with Col. Ilillyer, in
which some things that had heretofore
escaped his memory had come to mind.
lie now recollected that iu February,
1SGG, he had said to the President iu the
preseuce of, Col. llill,ei, (hat l.c thought
tip South should be represented as sptxd.
ily as possible and that us the conversa
tion might seem to contradict the tcsti.
niony iu which l.c declared lie stood fairly
ou the congressional platform, he hud felt
impelled to come and put. it ou record.
The General gvc the committee to under
stand that his idea of tio President's pol-
LaJ , bwn that it was only tern
FcrJ character to prevent a ,tate
ii auarchy, and to remain iu furce only
till Congress as tLe proper authority,
should prescribe terms of reconstruction,
and that he has not sympathized with the
President in his war upon Congress.
JVPt-E SIIARSWUOD AM) THE NA
TIOXAI. I I Itltt.VeV,
Ry his famous disscuting opinion in the
cafa of Rorie s. Trett, ou the point ol
the constitutionality of the money which
paid for the war, Judge Sharswood says :
"I am of the opinion that the provi
sions ol the act of Congress of February
25, 1SG, declaring the notes issued in pur
suance of that act to be lawful uuintry aud
a legal tender, is unconstitutional."
Ou the back of each of these same le
gal tender notes issued under the act of
February 25, 18G2, will be found the fol
lowing "endorsement" of the people of
the Uuited States :
TUs Xije is a ir;l Tah r fr all
debts, public or private, except duties on
imports and interest on the public debt,
and is receivable ou all loans made to the
United States.
Iu 1SG2 all the bouds of the Uuited
States nerc gold-bearing j hence the re
striction in the endorsement, which is,
however, iu favor and to the benefit of
creditors of the Government the meu
who had lent it money to cairy on the war
an4 p?.y the so'4"crj.
V jth the Press wc juiu in asking if the
individual rovcrcigns of the country
the endorsers of the Government mooe-y
will vote for or against the man who
impugned their paper at the very time
when their credit was in peril '( That
printed clause oa the back of all these
notos is our endorsement on the paper of
our Government. It is just the sums as
if we, each uf us, had written our names
ou the back of th bill. It means jast
the same as if we wiole our names across
the back of a note of a neighbor, only,
iuhtcad of one, there are some thirty mill
ion; ho endorse tha puper of our Gov
erument, pledging our credit to guarantee
it. Judge Sharswood says the endorse
ment is not good. After that will the vo
ters of Pennsylvania endorse him 1 Mi

with that of i'ennsylvania, aud also to re

Congress, by refusing to take mileage
for this ecsfion, proves that its coming to

The impirlartce of securing good an 1 able

can hurdly be OTer-estiniited. Our distiici

heaid the name of Davio Wilson oirntiunrd
