Your fellow Townsman and fellow Irishman. JOLIN KELLY. Annexed to the above were about eighteen names —all good and true men. As to the prospects of Mr. Kelly at the approaching election w•e can say nothing. He will not be much disappointed at de feat, we should judge, as he only asks the ',signa tures of recommendation" of our citizens, and not r I their votes. We have heard nothing, as yet, against the character of Mr. K. ds a citizen or a man.

Great Flood and Destruetion of Property We have just experienced the severest raip and heaviest fall of water since 1841. The conse quence has been to raise the Cuyahoga to an unu sual heighth, overflowing the bottom lands for miles tip the river, completely covering the inter vale known as "Scranton's bottom," and making some large water courses across Cleveland center flats. The water is considerable higher above the covered bridge than below, owing to a large amount of flood wood lodged against the pier darning up the current of the stream. This bridge, although condemned impassable, has been rendered much worse by the flood, and the probability is it will be a complete ruin. Arrangements have been made to rebuild upon the old butments and pier, but fortunately the work had not been commenced, and the calculation is now to build entirely anew. The principal damage was in the entire carrying away the lower bridge leading to Ohio City, and which was built at great expense, and was nearly new. This cuts off all communications with the south or west, and will seriously embarrass our city-business, and travel generally, until a temp i:Cry float is Lonstructed. One canal boat lying in the river broke from its lines. and was carried tnto the lake, but has since beached a few rods below the pier. We expect to hear of great dam. age to the canal. .. ~. .. . , . -. ~, -,.... _-..: , , ~ ~. ' ,, , , ' , '.:. , ...f . _;.,:,..;1 . ........ , 1-. .:, ..;:.• 3 '4 ,-, :i ii .

Presentkan exhibition of the State debt !outstanding since December last, as appears from I the Report of the Auditor General. Total funded L•debt $38,858,970 62; Relief Notes in circulation 181,081,664 00; interest on certificates outstanding 15703,810, 69; interest on certificates to August, 11845, when funded, $14,423 21; domestic creditors $96,275 47; total public debt, on Ist of December, 1536,407,895 77, being $106,816 22 less than it was on the lst of Dee. 1845. The payment of !interest on the funded debt had been suspended for two years and a half preceding. the Ist of Feb. 1845; for which certificates were issued, which constitute a part of the existing debt in consequence of the non payment of the interest, the balance in the Treasu ry hatraccemulated on the lattDec. * lB44, to the sum of $603,851 88, and'on the lst of Feb 1845; the payment-of theinterest on the funded debt. was resumed, and has been continued up to tbe present period end the credit and honor of the State maintained. The true condition of our resources slibuld be accurately and critically examined, and always kept in view, not only to guard by ample provision against' possibilities of another failure, rtimetually to meet all demands upon' the - public Treasury, but to make provision for a system for reducing the Oublic debt. It has been my con stant endeavor and especially in my annual message of. Jan., and my special message of 21st April fol lowing, to impress upon the Representatives orthe people, the neressity and importance of this sub ject. In presenting it to the Legislature at the last session it became my duty to show that the taxes assessed ou real and personal estate, together with all the other revenue that accrued within the fiscal year ending November 30th, 1845, were less than the expenditures of the year by the sum of $414,100 32, which deficit was supplied out of the balance in the Treasury,. on Dec. 4th r 1844, and by a dimunition of the outstanding debts on tho,lst of December, 1844, the balance in the Treasiiry was $603,851 88, and on the lit of De cember, 1645, it was $384,886 00; showing a re,' duction of the - balance in the• TIC.ISUry of 5275,. 965"79. On the Ist December, 1844, the estima-1 ted amount of available Outstanding Taxes was $1,009,778 03, and on the Ist December, 1845, they were estimated at $574,544 50; showing a diminution of outstanding taxes of $135,233 53, and making a diminution of the balance in the Treasury, and outstanding taxes, during the year ending Nov. 30th, 4845, of $414,190 32. statement demonstrates that the taxes and other revenues assessed and accruing within the year, were less, by the above sum, than the demands up on the Treasury during the same period. ' The fintincial'operation of the year ending 30th Nov, 1840, also exhibits a like deficiency, but less in amount. Thus the balance in the Treasury on the Ist Dec., 1843, was $384,686, and the estima., ted amount of available taxes outstanding at the; same period were $874,544 50,.making an aggre gate atnount of balance in the ;Treasury - and 'out-1 standing taxes on lst Dec ., 1845, 0f51,259,430'59, 1 the balance in the Treasury on Dec. 1, 1846, was $384,678 70, and the estimated amount of aVaila hie outstanding taxes for the same period was $542,688 64, making an aggregate of the bal ance in the Treiaary and outstanding , taxes on the Ist day of Deiember, 1846, of 4927,367 34; 1 showing a diminution of the balance in the Trea sury and outstanding Taxes, during the fiscal year ending 30th November, 1840, of $332,003 25.- It thus appears that the Taxes assessed, and the ' other resources accruing within the fiscal year just ended, were insufficient to meet the demands upon the Treasury by the above sum. It will be perceived that the balance in the Treasury on the lit Deceinber, 1840. was greater than was estimated in the last annual messiv. Tire amount of the outstanding taxes has been' reduced below the estimate then wade-state; that as it was apparent that these recurring defi ciencies would soon exhaust the balance in the treasury, and all arrearages of available outstanding I 'faxes. .He had urged at the last session that the neces sity of proyiding some additional revenue to plod' the finances on a permanent basis. Refers - fo the act and passed accordingly this session, which I should be modified in certain particulars- Thinks that the act of 1844 with the increase on the value of property since `the last biennial assessment will enlarge the revenue desirable from the real and personal estate to an amount equal 'to the deficien. cy that occurred in the accruing of the last year. Refers to the loss of Tolls by the spring flood, ac companied by report of Canal Commissioner slso,ooo, which with cost of repairs consequent thereon $111,515 makes a real loss by this disaster of $261,515. But this loss thus accruing, exclu sive of the balance in the Treasury on the Ist of 'December, 1846, and the taxes outstanding; could have been nearly equal to the demands on the , Treasury during the fiscal year preceeding. From ' the Canal Commissioner's Report, it appears that] the receipts from Canl and Railroad tolls and charges for motive power , for the year 1843, $1,107- I 841,12; year 1844, $1,167603,42; year 1845, $l,- 196.979 43; year 1846,51,295,404 76. showing a gradual and study increase during the above period. Even last year, notwithstanding the delay in open ing the navigation, they exceed those of 18.15, by the sum of 98,515,33. There is good reason, there fore, to believe that if the public works shall con tinue to be conducted with the same degree of skill, industry and integrity with which they have managed for, some years pail, the receipts from them will continue to increase Until the business upon them readies their full capacity. Some ap prehensions have been expressed thatthe construc tion of the great Central Railroad bet Ween Philadel phia and Pittsburgh may be the means of diminish ing the increase from the improviments of the state. In this Ido not concur. On the contrary I en tertain the opinion that the increase of commerce which it will invite between our great eastern and Western. emporiums and the regions which con nect with them will not only add to the revenue of the. Columbia Railway, but will greatly increase the productiveness of all our public works. Such, I believe, has been the experience of New York, and such I doubt not will in a few years be that of our own commonwealth. I transmit herewith, a statement, showing the actual receipts and expenditures for the last fiscal year, and also an estimate of the same for the pre.- sent year, made with much care upon full consul tation withother officers of the governMent. • From this estimate it appears that the receipts' l of the year will exceed the expenditures by the sum of $19,441 - ii, The balance in_ the Treasury on 1 the let inst, was 0n1y;5438,086 64. is,-there 'fore, altogether probable ,that:. it:may become ne cessary to -puke some arrangement to anticipate a small portion of. the revenue of the -Year tomeet the interest which will-fall due on the fuit of Feb mary next._ • I recommend that some legal previ-• sion be promptly made fofth is purpose.
