The adoption of such an amendment
would be productive of much good to the
State. The limitation of legislative
power in that direction would retn-dv
tie of the most pernicious evils which
threaten the good order and prosperity of
our people and jeop:irJize the test inter
ests of our f-tate. It would eliortcn the
fissions of the Legislature, and thus dc
cmum the espouses of the suit" ; and us
it would greatly diminish the number of

Uniformity and stability in oar I.tvrs
r.rc bat our people need and desire
Tiny should as far as possible be appli
c.nbb- M every citizen of onr Common
vveT:li. and indeed we doubt if any go-id
reason can be fhown why any law should
k m iiu im ti e Mtaiu'e books th.it does
rot ec'ialiy apply to every section as
we'l as every citizen of the State. We
know there are many reaaon urged, nnd
arguments made use of to sliow that such
is ui't the case, and in favor of special
- legislation, some of which would seem to
bave some weight, such as the more rap
id devtlopenitnts of tiie resources and
greater development of one section than
another. But nowhere throughout our
entire borders does there such iuequaii
ties exist but what the ad van I ages de
rived fiom special legislation are largely
counterbalanced by the evils which flow
thertiriim. A s it is, the greater part of
tli time of the Legislature is taken up in
the parage of local, pirate, or in other
words, special bills.
There is we venture to say not one
coui.iy, and no very great number of
townships in the State but what have
had sum" ipecial Legislation, and in some
particular are governed by laws i:ifforent j
fiom tin s.? which surround them To
iiliistiate. a citiz.'ii of one county knows
hat u'te laws in regard to roads or high
ways a:e in the county in which h
lives ; he movts into an adjoining coun
ty, and here he finds a different law.
He familiarizes himself with it. In
few yeaiB he tuny deem it proper to again
change his place of residence, lie moves
to a township iu the same county, and
there Hpjlits Lis knowledge of the laws
of highways, and to his astonishment
Cuds that he has been violating the law
The s line might be said of special law or
laws on many other suljt-cts of equally
thai importance to the citizen.
.Now what are the advantages derived
from such legislation ? Surely they can
be but little.
The ease and facility with which such
legislation has fieen procured has a ten
r?enry to lessen the lespect and regard
fur the law It is aud has been the fruit
ful souice of tonti liliou nnd litigation.
It is often procured by the contrivance
snd influence of a few individuals who
are to be specify bemtited thereby,
without the knewledge of. nnd ag.iiust
the uiaj irity of the citizens of the county
township or district to be aff.-cted there
by This gtiould not be. aud the surest
vi ay to revent it is to take away the
power to do it. It would not do to say
the people ought to trust their represen
tatives. They have been deceived too
often. In this our own county is not
wantii'g in instances
Another deshabitS object would be ac
complished The Capitol would be rid
of the hordes rf professional 'borers"
duiing the session of the legislature.
There would be less corruption atantij;
the members. Mercenary and bad men
would not seek to Gil the position of h-g-
Is ators, because the chances to make
r o:iey would be removed. It is this
kind of legislation that pays. hy is it

to procure their election than their salary

expenses while at Harrisburg amount to
as much more. Is is for the honor sup
posed to Le attached to the position !
Not at all : It is not their ambition to
be useful but their avarice that prompts
the effort. Let us have such amendment
to the renstitotion that wtll eradicate
this evil If the convention can success-1

STJiOPSIS OF TIIE PRESIDENT'S ME8-
SAUK.
President Grant in bis fourth annual
message adheres to th e formula of the
Protestant faith in the issue of State pa
pers by returning thanks to the "giver
of all good that, as a nation we have
been blessed for the past year with peace
at home, peace abroad, and a general
prosperity vouchsafed to but few people "
After which his Excellency first takes
up the English questions that for a time
endangered the peace of the country, the
settlement of which is briefly set fourth
in the following paragraph, " The Tri
hunal which had convened at Geneva in
December concluded its laborious session
on the fourteenth day of September, cn
which day, having availed itself of the
discretionary power given to it by the
Treaty to award a sum in gross, it mvie
its decision, whereby it awarded the sum
of 15,500.000 in gold as the indemnity
to be paid by Great Diitain to (he United
Sl ates for the satisfaction of all the claims
referred to its consideration. This deci
si u happily disposes of a long standing
difference Letweeu the two governments,
an I, in connection with another award
nude by the German Kmperer under a
reference to him by the same treaty,
leaves these two governments without a
shadow upon the friendly relations which
t is my sincere hope may forever remain
equally uncluded."
Of the di stribution c.f the Geneva or
indemnity found the President says : "It
will be the province of Congress to pro
vide for the distribution among those who
msy be entitled to it of their respective
shares of the money to be paid Although
the sum awarded is not payable until a
year from the date of the award, it is
deemed advisai le that no time be lost in
making a proper examination of the sev
eral cases in which indemnification may
be due. I consequently recommend the
creation of a b ard ot commissioners fur
the purpose."
The relationship between France
Itussia. and Germany is concisely sta
ted. thus. "With France, our earliest
ally ; Russia, the constant and steady
friend of the United States ; Germany
with whose government and people we
have so many causea of friendship and so
many common sympathies, and the other
Powers of Europe, our relations are main
I lined on the most friendly terms."
The naturalization question, and qnes
ttons offectlng consuls, aud trademark
have all been settled by treaty with
Europe.
ilis excellency suggests that the Com
missiouers to the ' Statistical ( ongress
that meets at intervals of about three
years all meetings have beeu held
Europe be invited to hold its next meet
ing in United Slates. The t'euteunial
Celebrat ou to be held in 1S76 would
alT.;rd an appropriate occasion for such
meeting
Att- n lion is directed to the Interna
lio"a' exhibit ion to be held during the
next year at Vienna, and an spprop ia-
lion asked for that object. "The tenden
cy of these expositions is in the direction
of advanced civilization and of the eleva
tion of industry and of labor and of the
increase of human happiness as well of
greater intercourse and good will ttweeu
nations " And it is further recommend
iu addition to an appropriation of money
that the Secretary of the Xavy be author
ized to fir up two naval vessel to traus
port between our Atlantic cities and
Trieste or the nioit convenient port to
Vienna and hack their articles for exhi
bition "
The death of Jaurez, President of the
Mexican Republic is properly noted aud
his character aud service to his countiy
fiily spoken of. And the election of his
SHi'i'iwi'OT ltv!t up'.T, Atul this bJU CA'
pressed "that nothing should be left un
done by the government of either Repub
lie to strengthen their relations as ueigh
bors and friends.
It is much to be regretted that many
lawless acts continue to disturb the quirt
of the settlement on the border betweeu
our territory aud that of .Mexico, aud
that complaints of wrongs to American
citizens iu various parts of tho country
are made The revolutionary condition
in which the neighboring- Republic has
so long been involved has iu some degree
coutilbutt-d to this disturbance. It is to
be doped that, with a more settled rule of
order through the Republic wi.icli may
be expected from the present government
the acts of which just complaint is made
will cease."
Limited appropriation have been the
cause of an incomplete, investigation on
the question ot Mexican Claims Spe
cial appropriation is asked so that the
iin'fcjtijjition may be completed.
It is with regret that the President
announces thti continuance of the dis
tuibed condition ot th Island of Cuba
This contest between Spain and Cuba
has lasted now for more then four years.
It is too near for the people of his coun
try to remain indifferent spectators.
Slavery is the strong! st inducements v"
the continuance of the strife, its abolition
with the introduction of other reforms
would restore peace aud order. It is
greatly to be hoped that the government
of Spain will voluntarily adopt this view.
Ilis excellency regrets to believe that citi
zens of the United States, or those claim
ing to be such are large slaveholders in
Cuba of what is there claimed as proper
ty but which is forbidden and denounced
by the laws of the United States. They
are tliHs, in d fiance of the spirit of onr
own laws, contributing to the continu
ance of this distressing and sickening
contest.
Our relations with the Republics of
Central and South America are stated as
of the most satisfactory character ex
cepting wih the Slate of Venezuela
which has not been full in her payments
on the awards under the convention of
the 25th of April, 1866. The attention
of Congress is asked for such action as
may be deemed proper
The growing interests of this conntry
in Japan and China s e dwelt upon and
expression given to the belief that' they
can be increased by a closer intercourse
of governments through government offi
cials. The President thereupon aekes
that an appropriation be made to support
at least four American youth in each of
those countries to serve as a part of the
official family of onr Ministers there.
Our representatives would not even then
be placed upon an equality with the rep
resentatives of Great Britain or of some
o'her Powers. Aa now situated, our rep
resentatives in Japan and China have to
depend for interpreters and translators
upon natives of those countries who know
our language imperfectly, or procure for
the occasion the services of employees in
foreign business houses, or the interpre
ters to oiher foreign ministers.
Congress is asked to release the De
partment of State of duties that properly
belong to the Department of the Iuter
ior.
An appropriation is asked for the re
lief of American Citizens who when in
foreign countries, through sickness and
other distressing circumstance may come
to want
The reduction of the national debt
during the fiscal yf ar ending June 30th
1872. From all sources including de
duction of cash in treasury $100,544.

cial question. From March I 1S69. to

March 1. 1870. to March 1, 1S7I, $117

eight months) SC4 047 237 S4 Total.
$303,690,999 87 With the great reduc
tion of taxation by the acts of Congress,
at its last session the expenditure of the
government in collecting the revenue will
be much reduced for the next fiscal year
It is very doubtful, however, whether a
eduction ot this vexatious burden upon
the people will be practicable for the
present. At all events, as a masure of
justice to the holder of the nation's cer
tificates of indebtedness, 1 would rc-coiu
mend that no more legislation be had on
this subject, unless it be to correct errors
of omission or commission iu the present
law, until sufficient lime has elapsed to
prove that it can be done aud still leave
sufficient revenue to meet current expen
ses of government, pay interest on the
public debt, ad provide for the sinking
fund established by law. The preserva
tion of our national credit is of the hi gh
est importance. Next in importance to
this comes a solemn duty to provide a
national currency of fixed unvaryiug val
ue as compared with gold, and as soon as
practicable, having due regard tor the
interests of the debtor class and the vi
cissitudes of trade and commerce, con
vertible into gold at par.
The report of the Secretary of War
is reviewed. This department for the
first year ending june 30ih 1874 will not
require as large appropriations as were
required the previous year The expen
ditures last year were $35,372,157 20
The affairs, of the Freedman's Bureau
have all been transferred to the War de
partment. "The annual average men
strength of the army was 24.101 while
and 2491 colored soldiers. The total
drat lis fur the year reported were 36
white and 54 colored.
The medical corps ia not full there now
fii.-t lii'iy nine vacancios.
"Tho river and harbor improvement!'
have been carried on with euergy ami
economy ; though many are only par
tially completed.'
Tbe bridge across the Mississippi riv-
river at Rock Inland has been comple
ted, and the proper site has been determ
ined upon for the bridge at La Crosee
The able and exhaustive report made ly
the Couitni-riioner appointed to investi
gate the Sutro tunnel has been transmit
ted to Congress."
The Signaf service has had ten addi
tional stations established in the United
States.
Thn favorable attention of Congress is
invited to recommendations of the Secre
tary of War. on the adoptiou and change
f certain rules. On cites for military
posts. Sale of arsenals &c,
His excellency says, the attention of
ngress will be called daring the pres
ent session to various enterprises for the
more certain and cheaper transportation
f the constantly increasing surplus of
he western and southern products to tie
Atlantic seaboard. The subject is one
hat will force itself upon ns sooner or la
ter, and I suggest that immediate steps be
taken to gain xll available information to
inure equitable and just legislation.
A route to connect by water the
Yi'ssit'aippi Valley and the Atlantic
Oo-an. through South Carolina and
Georgia, and a route or two by Water
through Virginia, are in contemplation,
and aid in their behalf will be asked this
winter of Congress. The President does
not ask that government aid be extended
o these enterprises, but suggests that
either a "committee or Commissioner be
authorized to consider this whole quea
tion and to report to Congress at some
future day. for its better guidance in
legislating on ibis important subject.
His Excelleucy ' expreses the belief
that the project of ship Canal arouud
Niagra Fall will be agitated daring the
present session of Congres. This project
may become a subject for said Committee
or commission, also the project, of a con
tinuance "land lock navigation trom Main
the the Gulf of Mexico " The Presi
dent closes the consideration of these
suijucts as follows ; I have not alluded
to this subject with the view of having
any further expenditure of public money
at this time than may be necessary to
procure aud place all the necessary in
fo, matiou before Congress iu au auihen
tic form, to enable it hereafter, if deemed
practicable aud worthy, to legislate on
the subject without delay
The attention of Congress is invited to
the report of the Secretary of the navy
The President closes this subject thus
It is evident tbat, unless early steps are
taken to preserve our navy, iu a very
few years the United States will be the
weakest nation upon the ocean ol al
great Powers With an euergelic, pro
gressive business people like 'ours pene
tiatiug aud forming business relatioue
with every part of the known' world, a
uavy strong enough to command the res
pect of our flag abroad is necessary fur
the full protection of their rights. 1 rec
ommend careful consideration by Con
gress of tho recommendations made by
the Secretary of the Navy
The Postmaster General's report is
submitted to Cong, ess with the rieel
dent's message. The increased reveuues
iu that department during the past fiscal
year was 9 47 per cetu , aud the lucreas
ed expenditures 9,29 per cent, ilia Ex
cellency recommends the abolitiou of the
franking privilege. 1 he appoiutineul of
a column toe or commission is also recom
mended to consider the ways aud means
ot connecting the telegraph and pottal
service.
In asking the attention of Congress to
the Attorney General a report, the Pres
ident reviews comprehensively the coudi
tion of society in the South, and closes
in the following manner : It is much to
be regretted, aud is legretted by no one
more than myself, that a necessity has
ever existed to execute the enforcement
act. No oue can desire m ire than i that
tho necessity of applying it may never
again be demanded.
The Inferior Department ia in a favor
able condition. - The Indian policy as
inaugurated by the present dministra
tion will be adhered to. 4 671 332 acres
have been taken for homesteads " The
cash receipts from all sources in the laud
office amounted to S3.2IS 160. during the
past year There yet remains of the
public lauds uusurveyed 1,257,633,228
acres.
The Patent Office has outgrown its
original plan A new nrganiz-ition has
become necessary. This is an important
deportment to the industrial interests of
the country. The attention of Congress
is directed to it.
Pensions, the Censtl, Education, Af
fairs in the Territories, the District of
Columbia, Agriculture and the celebra
tion of the one hundredth anniversary of
American Independence, are all fully and
ablv presented
The message closes as follows: An
earnest, desire has .been felt, to correct
abuses which have grown up in ths civil
service of the country through the defec
tive mthed of making appointments to
office. Heretofore Federal offices have
been regarded too much as the reward of
ptditieal services. Under authority of
Congress rules have been established to
regulate the tenure office and the mode of
appointment. It cannot be expected
that any system of rules can be entirely
effective aud prove a perfect remedy for
the existing evils, until they have been
thoroughly tried by actual practice, and
amended according to the requirements
of the service.
Durii g rov term of office it shall be mt
earnest endeavor to so apply the rules as
to secure the greatest possible reform in
the civil service of the government' ; but
it will require the direct actiou of Cn
gress to render the enforcement of the
system binding upon my successors ; and
I hope that the experience of the past
year together with appropriate lfgia'a
tion ov Congress may rach a atnf ic
tory point ion of tliU question and secure
to the public service for all time a prac
tieal method of ohtiti-iins faMjful and
efficient officers and employers.
