It is made the'duty of the State treasurer, by the act of 18th Alarch;qB42, 4' to digest, prepare, and lay before the General Assembly,iit the'corn mencemen(of every session, a report on the' sub. ject of the public revenue and , public expenditures, and.nlans for-the support of public credit, and for improving or increasing the revenues, : from time to time, for the purpose of giiing information to "the General Assembly in adopting , modes of rais. lug money requisite to , meet the public expend iture." , As required by this enactment, I have the honor to submit the following report: The means of the Treastuy during the financial year which closed on the 30th of November last, were sufficient .to discharge all legal demands upon it. The amountof revenue from all sources during said period was $4,438,131 '5l ;' to which is to be added the balance in. the Treasury on the 30th of November 1849, to wit: '5928,207.24, (less $41,032 of depreciated paper,) making to. gether the available sum of $5,323,306 75. The amount of expenditures to all objects, including the interest on the public debt, was 4,769,073 94;'leaving an availahle balance in the Treasury on the 30th November, 1850, of $754,252 81. The statement herewith - transmitted will show in detail the receipts• and payments. Whilst I have the gratification to announce , the alnlity.of the Treasuryto meet the demind upon it, I may be permitted to remark that, very generally, the officers entrusted with the collection of the reve nues, have discharged with promptitude the res. ponsible duties imposed upon them. With a revenue annually augmenting, as - the . Property, real and personal, of the Commonwealth ia increasing in value, we have every reason• to look forward to-the future with encouraging hope that Pennsylvania will not only,l be able, from the present revenue laws, if rigidly and properly en. forced, and if no unneCessary appropriation be made, to pay the interest upon the public debt regularly as it falls due, but that •before many yews shall have.elapsed, the debt itself may be so far diminished as that the next yield from the public improvtments of the State will pay ' the.in terest... This, point once reached, and if the act setting apart`certain revenues, and pledging it to the payment of the State debt, commonly called the Sinking Fund Act," shall be continued in force, the people of our State may then confident._ ly hope to be relieved from the taxes now neces. Badly imposed upon them. From the completion of the railroads and canals of the State to the pre sent time,Pennsylvania has' been steadily increas ing. in population, commercial importance and wealth; and whilst we are taxed to. pay, for im provements, we should bear in mind the facilities afforded•by them in the cheap and safe conveyance of . produce and merchandise to market, and the generally beneficial regulation of its price and value, These are among the advantages derived from our internal improvements, (or the construe-, tion of which the State debt was incurred. These advantages, and the general enhancement of the value of real estate, properly appreciated, are more than adequate to the taxes imposed. The benefits have been widespread and generally felt by every business interest of the community—the merchant, the farmer, and the manufacturer. Under and by authority of the act of 4th May, 1841, entitled " An act to provide rtvenne to meet the demands on the Treasury, and for other purpo ses," there were issued, by the several banks of this Commonwealth, the sum of $2,220;263, in notes of the denomination or one, two and five dollars. Of this amount there has been cancelled and deatroyed by the : Auditor General and State Treasurer, as directed by law, the sum of $2,114,- 101; leaving a balance in circulation of $100,164. Of this sum, however, $30,000- have been set apart for cancellation; thus reducing the actual circulation to 6'70,154 of 'the original issue. Many of these notes had become so torn and defaced as to be illegible. The Legislature, therefore, by the 9th and 10th sealants ot the act ot 10th April, 1849, authOrixed the several banks of this Cornk monwealth which had issued notes under the act of 4th of May, 1841, to rmissue notes of like de. nomination with the notes originally issued. The re-issue was to be made under the direction of the State Treasurer, and agreeably to the prescribed conditions of the act, the amount of notes re-im sued is $577,000 For the Morning Po S. DicKEE, Chm'n 1 In some instances,indeed very generally, the paper used in the reissue was of an inferior (pal. ity, and soon they became as bad as the issue first ! made. Believing that a proper construction of the law authorized It, I caused a renewal of the .res issue to be made. The amount of the renewed re-issue received at the Treasury is $1,500,000. Arrangements have been made to continue the re. newel as necessity may exist for it. It is worthy of consideration whether some new and better system may not be devised for the col. Nation of the revenue, tending to lessen the ex penses and ensure greater promptitude. In some of the States, township, borough, and ward col. lectors are entirely dispensed with, and the col. lection of the revenue (I speak. of the gineral du plicate tax) ii made by the respective County 1 Treasurers, who receive less commitsions, and, in general, are more prompt to pay over when col lected. This system, so far as it has been tried, has, as I have reason to believe, worked well, se. curing prompt payment, and comparatively re during the expenses of collection. If it is deem ed advisable to make a change in the mode of col lecting the revenue, it would afford me pleasure to meet the proper committee of the House or Senate, and confer with them on the subject. By act of 10th April, 1849, entitled an act to create a Sinking Fund, and to provide for the gradual and certain extinguishment• of the debt of the Commonwealth, certain revenues are pledged to the payment of the debt. These revenues are the tax received from collateral inheritances, premiums on charters, eating house and restaurant licenses, billiard.rooms, bowling saloon and ten. pia alley licenses, theatre, circus and menagerie licenses, distillery and brewery licenses, tax on new counties, and interest on sinking fund loans, and surplus militia fines. For the amount received and the State stock purchased therewith, I respectfully refer you to the report of the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund. It is hoped that this wise and salutary enactment will be continued in force. It promis see well to accomplish the great purposes iridi. cated by its title. A primary . and important purpose, to, be atoll times kept in view by the representatives of the people, is that the tax laws shall be so framed as that the burthens of taxation shall fall equally upon all, duly prortioned to property. Whilst this is t . one important objecty care should be taken that the amount to be raised should be sufficient at all times to meet the current ex. peases of the government, and pay promptly, and in par funds, the interest on the public debt as it falls due—thus sustaining unsullied the honor of the State. It is gratifying to be able to say that the people of Pennsylvania, strongly impressed as they are with a just sense of integrity and State pride, and appreciating the justness dour tax laWs, without complaint pay the taxes iipposed upon them. This will be continued, beyond all doubt, so long as necessity exists for it, and until the last= dollar of our State debt shall be paid. The following is an estimate of the revenue and expenditures for the fiscal year ending November 30, 1850: Revenue from all sources; Expenditures, . To which add balance in Treasury OO on the 30th Nov., 1850. 754,252 81 Estimated balance in. Treasury 30th Nov., 1850, . • $837,052 81 This may be relied upon as nearly accurate, and it is confidently hoped will be fully realized. The receipts from the tax on real and personal estate is estimated higher than usual, for the reason that the general increase in the' value of property will be fully realized for the present year, as the Re. venue Commissioners will meet in February next for the purpose of adjusting and equalizing the assessments..Shoutd no disaster occur to our public:woilrs, It is believed the estimate from that source will be round nearly correct The abatement which has heretofore been allowed to counties for protnpt payment of their quota of taxes respectively, as authorized by the eat of 29th of April, 1844, is as follows, viz.

' . On the fast of August last, the 'excess in the Treasury, after the payment of, the interest then due, was $431,046 66. This sum being so much greater than . was anticipated and wanted at the time, induces the suggestion which I have made. • Our financial condition is encouraging; and with just and rigid economy in every department of the government, Pennsylvania can never be in default in meeting promptly every •obligation; thus sustaining her credit and honor. - I :shall with pleasure, during the session, - at suitable times, meet Committees of the Legielak tare, or either branch, to confer with them on the subject relating to the revenue.
