Che Sunbutg Slmcdcan, ,". B. B. MjTsbbB, Editor Proprietor. 20. WILVZBT, Publisher., -, flUNttlWY. PA. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1860. THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE Gov. Curtin, havintr bee a absent at Cubn cm account of liia health, at the opeiilug of the Legislature, Met in bit annual Mfssage on Tuesday, a few days after hit return. We cau only give our waders a synopsis. The Menage sbows that the" financial con dition of the State has been extremely pros perous. ' We received over i million two hundred thousand dollar during 1865, and there w9 a balance at the br&iuning of that car of nearly two millions of dollars. . AVe paid out during the same period over five aiillious and three quarters, and had a bal ance in the treasury on the first of Decem ber of $2,373,CC8 14. Out of the sum paid away, we appropriated, in rcdeinption of the State indebtedness, 1,003,343 88. Our debt on tbe same day was 37,470,238 06 We bad assets on that day amounting to $13,623,608 14, leaving our liabilities in excess of assets at 23,852,689 02. As con trasted with the year 1860, when our liabili ties exceeded assets 20,403,103 04, we stand more than two millions six hundred thousand dollars better off than we were at that time. When we consider the heavy expendituies required for defense, and ex penses incident to the war, wc can well congratulate ourselves at having done so well, particularly when wc know that other commonwealths Lave added immensely to their debt. , Tbe Governor believes that the annual re ceipts of tho Commonwealth are large enough to justify a removal of all State taxes on real estate, and recommends that it be done. In regard to the old tax of 25 cents per 100 there is no difficulty, but the tax of 5 cents per 100, laid by the act o 1804, was pledged for the repayment of the 3,000,000 loan, and car.not be removed until that money is paid. Perhaps this will have to remain, but tho greater'tax can be removed, and no doubt it will be done. The Governor recommends that, iu case the State tax on real estate is removed, tho levying of local taxes on bonds, mortgages, loans, and all property of that kind, be pro hibited. He says : "Such a respeal would largely encourage "the investment of capital in this State and "add immensely to the wealth of the State, "while the local authorities would lose very "little, as it is notorious that, from the dilti "cultics of "usscssmcnt, they receive very little lrom these Bourses." The Governor sums up the results of the action of Pennsylvania in supporting the cause of the Union during the Rebellion with a proud consciousness that wc have done our duty. We furnished the United States during tho Rebellion with 302,284 soldiers, exclusive of militia and volunteers for emergencies, and exclusive of men sent iuto the navy. Of tho latter tho Message does not give us the numbers, except that in 1803 there were 80,588 of these troops furnished for- the emergency preceding the battle of Gettysburg. The number of men furnished to the navy might have been S0,000. Assuming that it was ouly 10,000, Uk wWo u ,!,, nf a,en furnisilcd ,i,e Government for service during tho Rebel lion could not have been less than 408,872. record of patriotism scarcely to be exceed ed by any other State in the Union. irt?Tlie Joint Committee on Reconstruc tion, consisting of six Senators and niue Representatives, have agreed on the follow ng proposal of Constitutional Amendment, which was reported to the Senate by Mr Pessendcn of Maine : Article . Representatives and Direct Taxes shull be apportioned among the several States which may be included within :his Union according to their respective lumbers, counting the whole number of per :ons iu eacli Sutc, excluding Indians not axed ; provided, that whenever the elective ranchisu shall be denied or abridged in any Hate, on account of mcc or color, all per--ons of siich ruce or color shall be excluded rom tho basis of representation. This amendment virtually remits the luesiitn of Clack Suffrage to the several Jtates, requiring only that each shall abide y its own decision, nud not ccunt as a basis if political power in the Union such portion f its population as it shall deliberately de irive of power and exclude from the body lolllic. Iu other words, it says: "Account our Blacks men or brutes; but, if you ac ount there brutes, do not ask other States o regard them uj men." "Reconstbcctios. The Reconstruc ts Committee, through Mr. Fesscndca, has cpart a joint resolution to amend the Constitution so as to apportion represents ion in Congress and the Electoral Colleges ccording to the number of voters in each tate. Mr. Stevens, from the same' Committee eported the same resolution to the House, 'his is important measure, rests on princi le tbut cannot be refuted, though they iy have violent prejudices arrayed against hern. t3T"FmE at Renov. The Boot and hoe Store, of Mr. P. Bacon, and the Saloon f James F. Green, at Renova, Cliuton Coun were destroyed by fire on Saturdsy morn Ig last about 1 o'clock. Tbe fire was vidontly tbe work of an incendiary. IThe Union State Committee met In arrisburg on the 10th inst.

To th SemKtttnd IToute of ReprtttntAtitet fihe ConmomoealtK if Ptnn$ylinuiQR TLtMEN; r -oreseeUnff this Annual, Re port, Uve State Troaaurer congratulates the people of Penntjrhraiis, through Jheir, re presentatives upon the prosperous condition of the finauees of tin Commonwealth. It should be a sovrce of priiio to '.every Penn sylvanian to learn Uat, notwithstanding the extraordinary expenditures to which we have been subjected during the Inst five years, in consequence of the rebellion, reach ing the large amount of 4,028,027 81, (in additiou to whnt has been refunded by the Goiter ul Government.) we are, on the termi nation of the current fiscal year, financially in l)i.tttr rj. million, bv the sum of 2,000, 178 72, than wo were on the 30th day of November, 18(H). n; 15? a ststf nient heirto appended, it will le seen that during that time we Have re duced our public debt 492,038 W, while our asset havd increased 3,007,235 06. These facts demonstrates the immense re sources of the State, and cannot fail to give increased confidence. to the holders of bcr obligations. During the last five years, at least three hundred thousand of her citizens havo been cnlled away from the peaceful nursuits ol life. Millions of her treasure have been contributed, publicly and private ly, to sustain her gnllunt sons while battling for the great cause of freedom, and yet she stands to day with an overflowing treasury, and with every just demand upou her paid. The receipts of the hist year exceed those of 1864 by 1,486,070 05, the larger portion of which has been derived from taxes on corporation stock, tonnage, real rstate loaus, income, collateral inheritance, Jomgti in surance companies and charters. The only source allowing a declino are the proceeds from patenting Jands and tbe tax on bank. 1 no income lrom the latter source tell oti during the year, in tax on dividends, 205, 011 80 ; ir. tax on capital stock, 75,007 05, makiug in all 281,481 44, and has now almost entirely ceased. This diminution has been caused by the banks having ceased to operate as state institutions, and accept ing charters under the national banking system. As these corporations are still located in our . midst, and derive all their profits from their business relations with our people, it will bo admitted by all that they should be required to bear their proportion of the public burdens. There is no valid reason wby a business which is always profitable, when properly conducted, should be exempted lrom the taxation which is imposed upon every other pursuit of life. I recommend, therefore, the; passage of an act taxing the capital stock of National banks, to be collected early in the year, as tho only method by which we can now get. what we failed to demand ft year ago. Of our right to impose this tax 1 have not a single doubt ; but even if it were an open question, I feel conti lent that there is patriotism enough among the owners of these institutions to induce them readily to bear their just proportion of the expenses of a contest- wliioli, if it had terminated ad versely, would have left them with little or no capital to tax... Oil inquiring of the Controler of the Currency, I learn that the National banks of Pennsylvania have a capi tal of 10,043,100. A tax of one per cent, on this umuunJt would, no doubt, be cheer fully paid bytheur, provided they were ex empt by luws from local taxation. lucre is. no louudation for the cry that these institutions are already too heavily taxed by-tba General Government, for, in tact, tneso btate banks,' by placing them selves under the National banking laws, have escaped the. larger portion of the in creased taxation that all other trucks and occupations havo . .been subjected to on ac count of tbe war.' An exhibit of the rela tive amount .of taxes paid under each sys tem, is herewith appended, from- which it will be seen that the taxes of thesu institu tions are in reality, less now than they were before the war. I respectfully call jour attention to tho very small amount of revenue realized from -- --"r.l nr., I .: : value, in 180a, almosi ...!,, S,, whole income from them in 1805 was (S3.", 502 10, or about one fourth of odc per cent on their vulue. In this the tax on tonnage is not included, for it is diilicult to deter mine whether this was intended as a tax on the corporation or on production. It it was designed for the former, it should be forth with amended or repealed because of the inability of the Auditor General to ascertain but amount of tax i due the State, and on account of the uiicquul manner in which it operated on the dillorent companies was ! intended to reach. For example: The Pennsylvania Railroud Company, uu mi income which, in too amounted to nearly 15.000,000, pays for 1865 a tax of 51,805 13 while the Reading Railroad Company, with an income of 9,250,000 during the same period pays, 80,233 77. The Lackawanna and Bloomsburg Railroad Company, with uu income of 700,000. pays 16,383 03. -Tho Erie Northeast, with on income of ouly 500,000, pay 14.754 43; and the Atlantic and Great Western, with its immense capital and traffic, paid tbe in significant sum of 6,031 27. It cannot be ascertained at present, what tho grcss receipts of the different railroad and transportation companies will amount to for the past yenr, but they will most pro bably reach the sum of 00,000.000. A tax tt three-fourths of ono per cent, on these gross receipts would yield as much income, and would be far more equal iu its operation than what is now known a. the tonnage tax. This chahgo in the manner of assessment would double the taxes of some of our large corporations, but it would proportionately reduce the amount now paid by others, who are unfairly dealt with by the present sys tem. 1 . . .. By a Javv Approver! April 30 1864, tbe treasurer of corporations are required to de duct the three mill tax when paying tbe interest on their bonds, and pay the same over to the State Treasurer. This law thus far operates very advantageously, yielding in 18U5 an excess 150,000 ovtr the previ ous year. But it i still imperfect, and ought to be amended. A tax of three mills on the priucipal of a six per cent, bond is tho same as a tax of five per ceut. on the in terest. I recommend that the law be io amended as to require a -tax of five per cent, to he paid on the interest accurtng on all bonds. I his will make a five, six or seven per cent bond bear er.ual burdens. The corporation should be. required to make it to the Audi tor Geueral. Instead of the Slate Treasuier and have its account settled iu the usual manner, with a severe penalty for a noncom plimice. .This tax it properly reguluted, will become one of the most reliable sources of income to the State Treasury and should receive the early and careful consideration of the Legislature. Some mctiiod . should be adopted bv which the officer, of the State can learn the wherabouts of the officers of foreign wsorpo rations liable to luxation under our law. A the law is now enforced, hut a small pro portion , of these institutions pay any tax into the treasury. If all corporations, both foreign and domestic, were required to keep complete record of the names of their offl cers places of business, 4c, with the Audi tor General, it would greatly facilitate the collection of taxes due front thera-tothe otate. i .- i 1'SeD.,e 'V rMluir ndment Nine tenth. of the theatre pay no license, at all.

I no saiv ; requiring Corporation to pay ft bonus Mr Jheir onart- era, annum bliighu - .w...... first payment to bo made immediately upon tbe organization of the company. Had this been tbe law during tbe past year, the State would bare received an income of 160,000 more than she has derivrd from this source, most of which will now be lost. By the estimate, hereto annexed, of our receipts snd expenditures for the coming year, it will he seen that our reeeintt are ex pected to resell the sum of 5,426,000, and our expenditures, during the same period the turn ol 3,528,000. ' By levying. tax of one per cent on tbe capital ol banks, and the exercise of proper diligence in collecting our taxes on corporations, licenses dec, tbe re ceipls can readily be made to reach 6,000,- 000 ; while the expenditures, with the least possible effort, can be reduced to 3,000,000. Under these circumstances, it i. worthy of serious inquiry whether the tin nee ot the State are not now in condition to dispense altogether with the tax on real estate, leav ing it to bo taxed only for county and town ship purposes. It should be the endeavor of the State as far as possible', to collect her revenue from sources that cannot ' be reached by counties and town. At the time of creating the lust war loan, the first thing seized upon for its re-payment, was real estate: and now, that war is over, whv should tt not be first to re ceive the benefits of pesce t ' From all parts of tbe country we hear the cry, high rents, snd much of the necessity for this advance arises from the high local taxation rendered necessary to liquidate debts incurred by counties and towns to pay bounties for the war. Presuming that our receipts will be, 5.420,000 00 Our expenses, 3,300,000 00 There would be balance 2,126,000 00 F rom which deduct tax on real estate, 1,000,000 00 Leaving a balance. 529,000 00 We will still have a balance in the Trea sury of 520,000 over and above all necessary expenditures, ir we add to this a tax on banks, or f 7U,ou, it win give us f uuo.uuu, nearly a million of dollars to be appropria ted to bo the redemption of the public debt. From this statement, it seems clear to me flint we could get along without levying one dollar of tax on the real estate of the Commonwealth. We can, at least, suspend its collection for a year or two until we have tried the experiment. All of which is respectfully submitted. WILLIAM H KEMBLE. State Treasurer. Relara of Secretary Heward and Party Wabuixotox, January 20, 1800. Tbe U. S. steamer De Soto arrived here about 4 P. M. yesterday, and landed Secre tary Seward, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick W. Seward, and Miss Wharton Mrs. Seward's sister at the navy yard. The party left here on Saturday, December 20to, ami have thus been absent a month. After leaving ortrcss Monroe they first , visited St. Thomas, where they stopped two days. The u.-st day they dined with the Gevcrnor, and next day Secretary Seward held a levee on the De Soto, receiving all the captains of vessels in port, foreign consuls, Government officials, etc., the individuals being intro duced by the American vice consul, Mr. Simmons. ' It is said that while at St. Thomas Secre tary Seward exchanged visits with General Santa Anna, of Mexico, now residing at St. Thomas. From. St. Thomas tbe De Soto proceeded to Santa Cruz, where Secretary Seward and party landed at Frcderickstadt, and drove over to Christianstadt accompan- V;' """can cousul aud vice consul, Mr. Perkins and 3:r. uuuiv. -r.. stopped at Sauta Cruz two days, and were honored with a special state dinner by the Governor, at his residence at Christuinsladt, the capital of the island, and at which the American and other foreign consuls were present. From Santa Cruz they went to San Do mingo city, where they stopped one day, and were received with every possible murk of distinction by President Uacz, of the Dominician Republic. Tbe American and other consuls also paid their respects. They next visited Portau-Prince, where they were ruceived by President GelTrard and the several foreign consuls, and visited tliu town aud suburbs and country adjacent, accom ied by Mr. Elie, Miuistcr of Foreign Af uirs. They arrived at Havana on Saturday, 20th instant, the entire party going on shore to a hotel. The Secretary very courteously de clined the use of the Captain .General's pa lace, in consequence of the short time he in tended to stop. On Monday, 2 2d inst., tbe Secretary and Mr. F. W. Seward attended a banquet given in their honor by the Cap tain General, at which there were some seventy guests present, including U. S. Con sul General Miner, Captain Walker, ol the De Soto, the several foreign consuls, tbe Vice Admiral of tho Spanish fleet, and all the Spanish and French officers in port. At night tho party. were honored with a delightful serenade, and next day the Secre tary held ft levee at hi hotel, receiving nu merous officials and citizens of Havana, in cluding over five hundred students, with the professor from the University of Hava na. The De 8oto left the harbor late on Tues day, 23d instant, and a number of the stu dents and others chartered steamer and accompanied the De Soto past Moro Coslle. to Uke ft final farewell of the distinguished visitors, and on parting saluted tbe Secre tary and party with loud cheers. At. St. Thomas, salute were exchanged between the Danish and American flag, and the same was the case with tbe Haytien and Spanish flags at Hayti and Cuba. Every where on the trip Secretary Seward and pany were tne recipient ot the moat dis tinguished attentions. They had delightful weather in the West Indies, the thermome ter ranging about 80, and everything 'wear- i"K toe appearance oi summer. The trip, though short, bas been apparent ly of the greatest benefit to both Secretary Seward and hi son, Mr. Frederick Seward, the public will be glad to know.
