Governor's Message.
We hnvo received a copy of the
niesssge of His EzoetleoeT, Governor
Hartranlt, of whisU the following is an
Abstract:
la introducing the mcessge lh Gov
ernor eaja .the hope of the Atnsricso
people that the dawn ot tho year 1874,
weuld discover the country released
from (he distrusts and effects of the
financial panic of 18V3, has not been
realized, as is evident from the prostrs.
tion of tos industries of the Great .State
of Pennsylvania, It is expected there
fore that tho authorise of the State
shall practice the most rigid economy.
Following on this idea, the Governor
pays: "Let us eoofirm these expecta
tions by ausual diligence in the dis
patch of tho public business, a constant
study of the general welfare, and the
application of every means in our power
n reduce the burdens of the people, aid
with this view I recommend the cloic6t
scrutiny of every item of tho appropria
tion bill. Iu this season of distress no
outlay of money should be made except
what is absolutely required fur the or
dinary expenacs of tho goveromeut, and
to make provision for the maintenance
oftUaso reformatory and charitable in
stitutions Vf ith whose management the
State is charged."

" The diminution of 81,204.754 93 in
the receipts lor 1874 as compared to
1873. was occasioned by the repeal, in
1873, of the taxes on gross receipts of
railroads, net earnings ol industrial and
othercorporations, and the tax on cattle
and farming implements. It is worthy
of rcmirk that the relief afforded by the
repeal of these taxes was mainly iu the
interest of corporations employing the
greatest number of wovkingnien. With
this reduction of the revenue, and with
nn increased expenditure of prclisps
850 0,000 nvido necessaiy by the new
Constitution in the additional outlay for
schools, LugisUtuco and judiciary, it is
manifest that the severest eeuuoiny may
be observed in all the departments of
the government, and the appropriations
considerately and wisely unde, or the
State will be uuable to meet its obliga
tions under the existing tax laws.
By the Constitution, the proceeds of
thesilcof publio works, and by act of
last session, approved May 9, 1874, the
tax on the capital scock of uil corpora -tion
were assigned to the Sinking
Fund, whieh can only bo applied to the
payment of loans redeemed and interest
on the public dbt. The receipts from
other sources belong to the general
revenue fuud, and as all the expendi
tures of the Government are payable
therefrom, it will be clearly the duty of
the Legislature to limit the appropria
tion to the amount of this fund.
INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION.
The Governor then refered to the
necessity for industrial schools in Penn
sylvania, and suggests that in Philadel
phia, Pittburgb, and other large manu
facturing cities, where the luetics of re
quiring inlonuation of this kind are so
ample, schools might be established
without great cost, and where provision
is made therefore by the local school
boards, tho State should le pledged to
give them proper assistance
His Excellency suggests a diaught
iu" room, and a complete workshop to
beprovided over by a Proicssor, who
hhould train the boys in practical wy
totke eud that the country may seeure
good mechanics, and that our own Am
erican boys may kuow how to develop
and use the immense wealth of our
Commonwealth. His Excellency thinks
the Legislature should make provision
for Industrial schools.
COMrULBOUY EDUCATION
The Governor thinks the S late no
only owes it to a child, but to licitcU
where parents neglect the education of
that child, to compel its attendance at
school, and it cannot be argued as des-.
potic. The lesson of the common school
is love of country and obedienco to
authority. Can the time and attention ol
those entrusted with government be em
ploycdupon a subject more vital to the
interests of society than to secure the
education of every child within the
operation of its laws, and he siocerly
trusts that from the wisdom of the Leg
islature will becuvelopcd some plan that
will at least gather the neglected child,
reu of the Comraouwealih into instituti
ons (there, jointly with the contributions
of charitable people, she can provida for
their maintenance and instruction.
NAVAL SCHOOL,
The Legislature U invited to consider
the act of Congress of June, 1874, for
the establishment of a naval school at
Philadelphia. The importance of a
school of this kind cannot be over esti
mated, especially to a commercial city
like Philadelphia, end the liberal offer
of the National Government will enable
he (?iven in a practical
way under a competent superintendent. I
tui.mt.us mint vis.
Under this hend tlx? Governor snjs:
Tho eJnc.it ion and maintenance of the
soldiers orphan? will continue to elicit
your sympathy and aid. No object
should make a more successful appeal to
our consideration, than the condition of
these unfortunate children, whoso future
will be fclaped and usefulness largely
determined by the instruction they re
ceive from the State. A number of
these orphans, distinguished by good
conduct and mental qualities that
adapted them to tbe calling of teaehers,
have been transferred upon the expira
tion ol their term', from the Orphan to
the Normal schools of the Stat1;, where
they are being fitted for that a-cfol
occupation. What the State should do
to obtain employment or a means ol
livelihood tor the residue of their child
ren who are in need of atais'nnoe, is t
matter I feel asiuredjou will not think
unworthy of attention.
CENTENNIAL
The Centennial is referred to in
glowing terms and the welcome accoided
those who attend, the Governor fsys,
will be in keeping with the traditional
hospitality of the people of Pennsyl
vania, and we trust will nflfct honor
upon the whole nation.
INSUHANCC.
The necessity of an insurance depart
ment has been shown, the Governor
says by the discovery of a number of
unsafe and insolvent companies
doing business in the State. Iu some
cases the assets melted arcny into worth
less securities, fraud. The protection
of sousd companies, the letention at
home of the capital invested in insur
ance, the interests of the insured, and
the honur of tho State, alike demand
the exposure of those fraudulent com
panies and the enactment of a penearl
law so stringent in its regulations that
it will be impossiole for adventurers,
under the cloak of an insurance com
pany to rob the public.
NEW CONSTITUTION.
The new Constitution is next refer
red to, and His Excellency is picked
to observe a more growing disposition on
the part of thosa in lavor of good govern
ment to see that its provisions are all
carried into effect.
BANKS, SAVING FUNDS AND TRUST
COMPANIES
We have in tho State one hundred
aud ninety. niae National bauks, whose
capital is about 852,000.000; and one
hundred and seventeen State banks
aud saving institutions, whose capital
actually paid in as per Auditor Gener
al's report of 1874, was C8,370,108 85,
in all three hundred and sixteen banks
and savings institutions, with an
agcregate capital of 860.000,000. He
calls attention to the vicious practice
that has grown up in the State of in
corporating banks, savings and trust
companies without fixing proper and
definite limitations to their powers and
privileges, end providing for their en
forcement. In the enactment of a f lit
eral law, whereby they can be organ;zed
without limit, it is of the highest impor
tance to the business inteicsts of the
people, aud the material dcvlopmeit of
the State, that tliuir powers nud privil
eges bo clearly defiued, and acy viola
tion thereof ihould subject them to
proper penalties or the forfeiture of
their charters.
The Auditor General's repnit shows
that they had over 823.000,000 in de
posits. Some ot them aro avcragin
810, 820, 830, and 840, of deposits for
each dollar of capital stock paid in; de
pending, in some instances, almost en
tirely upon their deposits for banking
facilities. Thess are obtained by offer
ing usually six ncr coin, interest, and
loaned bock lo the community in which
they are borrowed at higher rates of
interest.
MUNICIPAL I.VDXllTEnXESS AND TAXA
TION The creation and increase of indebted
ness by the municipalities of this Com
monwealth the pibt lew vears, have
justly excieted the apprehension of tax
payers, and greasy augmented their
burthens. So enormous linn this evil
become, that a provision was inserted
in the new Constiiutinn to cheek it, and
at the lat session I approved an act for
that purpose. While tho letter of the
Constitution may be open to technical
criticism, its spirit und intention is in
my judgment clear, that no city whoe
indebtedness at tho adoption of tho Con
stitution, exceeded seven per cent., shall
be permitted to increase the same, in
tbfl aggregate, to exceed three per cent,
of the assessed value of the pioperty
therein. If additional legislation is
necessary with the spirit of the Constitu
tion and protection to over-burthened
taxpayers, demand we should permit no
evasion of its wise aud benefioieut pro
visions. TOLL TAX
He refers to tho poll tax and lays it
is not in harmony with our institutions
(hat citizens should be deprived of ex
ercising their franchise by excessive
taxation, or that the tax imposed there
for be unequal. This cjuiliGcatiu u tax
of voters should be uuiforra, and I
therefore suggest the repeal of all laws
authorizing the levying o! taxes upon
trades, ocjupations, and professions, and
that a county poll-tax be substituted
therefor at a rale so reuse cable es to bo
within the ability of ail to pay.
THE NATIONAL OUARDS.
Ho speaks in praise of the National
Guards and says. 'J he conduct of the
several commands, ou oicasions of pub
lic parade, has been in general uuexcep
tiouably good, and when a turner duty
was required of them, tbe response was
prompt and warranted tbe belief that
they could be relied upon is any emer
gency. Officers aio'luld to a strict ac
countability for urns and munitions ii
war in the custody of their commands,
and it cannot be too urgently implied
upon the minds of (he troop ol the Na
tional Guard, that in uu exigency can
the arms ot the State be used rxci'pt in
the hand of her uniformed und reguhnly
enrolled soldiers under the commuud ol
their proper officers, acting by the di
rection of competent authority.
THE SIUBDERED ROIIANS
The Governor alludes to the murder
nl I lie Julian miners, aud says: Then!
i.-Jnolliing to show any efficient interfer
ence on the part of the local authorities
to cliesk these unlawful proceedings,
and there is no evidence thatsny regular
or dfGcial investigation in relation to
thest troubles was had, until loss of lile
made it nccesury. I feel confident that
prompt action on the pirt of the author
ities in the vicinity would hive spcodil
terminatcd, if not entirely prevented
the disturbance.
After referring to tho State Arsenal
at Capital Hill, and fish cu'ture the
BUREAU OF BTATISTlCB
is considered, and the opioiou expressed
that ''the usefulness of this bureau will
depend upon its ability to obtain reliable
statistics, and its investigations, there
fore, should bo conducted with great
circumspection and caution, while citi
zens nnd corporations should open every
avenue of intelligence connected with
its ofiiciel inquiries.
STATS CHARITIES.
Alter dwelling on the importance ol
wise and husiann legislation fur tho in
sane, the State Hoard of Charities is al
luded to us follows.
The disinterested labors of this board
to alleviate the sufferings of tho insane
nnd other poor have been productive ol
most valuable results, and to its efforts
we are under obligations lor the marked
improvement in the condition ul our
jails and Almshouse, and for a mure en.
lightened sentiment upon the whole im
parlant subject of public charity.
TUB KXEMi'TION LAW
is next alluded to as follows: It is to
be regretted that tho act to undify tLc
exemption law of 1849, so as to forbid a
waiver of the exemption by the creditor
wis aot passed finally at the last session
of the Assembly. It encountered no
serious opposition, end failed to become
a law from Sustention.
THE OHIO RIVER
l'efering to this subject, the Gover
nor says: The Commissioners of Penn
sylvania have made a report to tho Exe
cutive embodying a brief review of their
labors and the suggestions they have
offered in regard to this cntfrpriie.
They reeommead that the Legislature of
Pennsylvania pass a joint resolution
asking Congress to appropriate sufEeicat
money to commence this improvement,
and 1 1 e.uti'y concur in this rccomnioad
atioo. One of the subjects of engrossing in
terest to the people of the west en I
south-wsst, and to which the mst is
immediately ejneerned is to obtain some
meaus of conveyance, ohcraby their
commodities can reach the markets,
and they cau receive ja return what
they need at cheaper than existing
rates, aud in addressing themselves to
the consideration of this great transpor
tation: problem, (he impiovtneot of the
Ohio river is believed to bo l lis tuede
by wbiah i. can be solved with the leiut
difficulty,
COKCLI'SION.
After referring to the death cf Chief
Justice Thompson, tko message cio-es
as follows: Haicg the first Keprcs'in
tatives elected under tlis new Constitu
tion, a grave responsibility . rests upon
the present Legislature, and the liiune
prosperity of the Comu,-oawca!ih wit:
dapeud iu a large measure upon the
wisdom of the counsels that may prevail
at the peuding session. Additional
legislation is needed to give fjli force
and effect to the Constitution, and the
importune of framing laws that will te
uniform and gci:tii:l in their operation,
cannot be urged upon the attention of
your honorable bodies with to much
earnestness. I feel convinced that you
will approach the dis charge of this duty
with a becoming sense of the magnitude
ol the trust and an ardent desire to pro
mote th? publie welfare, nnd with nil
efforts in this behalf, I pledge you my
heartiest co-operation. M) mutt cor
dial wishes attend you for an auspicious
beginning ind a happy close to your hi.

HAIR
RENEWER.
Every year increases the popularity
of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alope. We can
assure our old patrons that it is kept
fully up to its high standard ; and it
is tho only reliable nnd perfected prep
aration for restoring Gray or Faded
Hair to its youthful color, making it
soft, lustrous, and silken. The scalp,
by its use, becomes white nnd clean.
It removes all eruptions and dandrufij
end, by its tonic properties, prevents
the hair from falling out, ns it stimu
lates and nourishes tho hair-glands.
By its use, tho hair grows thicker and
stronger. In baldness, it restores tho
capillary glands to their normal vigor,
and will create a new growth, except
in extreme old age. It is the most
economical Hair Dressing ever used,
as it requires fewer applications, and
gives tho hair a splendid, glossy ap
pearance. A. A. Ilayes, JI.D., Stato
Assayer of Massachusetts, says, "The
constituents aro pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and I
consider it tho Best Preparation
for its intended purposes."
