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,

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

ccording to the number of voters in each

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

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.

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.
