GOV. GEARY'S NIESNAGI
Gov. Geary's annual message for 1872 is
eminently n practical document; the different
matters connected with the administration of
State affairs are reviewed In plain terms, and
the most obvious needs of legislation are
brought to the attention of the Legislature.
The Governor commences with a brief refer
once to the unusual amount of important busi
ness which will Claim consideration at the
hands of the Legislature, and expresses the
hope, iii whiCh the people of the whole Slate
will most heartily Join, that the members will
exhibit that industry and thithfulness which
will secure them the proud title of " the work
ng Legislature."'
The finances of of the State are reported to
be In a very healthy condition. All demands
have been promptly met, the public debt has
been meterlally reduced, and public confidence
In the State securities has been so Increased ns
to cause them to command the highest premi
ums in the market. The total receipts of the
State Treasury during the year ending with
November 80 were $7,707,400 ; and the dls
bursments were $0,431.022, leaving a balance'
of $1,802,042. The State debt on the 30th of
November amounted to $31,111,061, a de
crease or $1,702 870 during the year,and a de.
crease of $6,002,747 since January, 1867,mak
ing nn average annual decrease of 61,648,187
during the last lout• years. Ile suggests that a
less rapid payment of the debt may now safely
be pursued, and that an acinual reduction of
$1,000,000 µpd revision and reduction of taxa
tion would form a better policy for the future.
There arc now in the State 2,002 school
districts; 1.1,212 schools, 3,100 directors,
79 county and other supecin tendents,
10,012 tenebi.rs and '828,891 pupils. This
is an increase over last year of 31 dis•
triets, 277 schools, 417 gentled schools, 200
directors, three superintendents, 470 teachers
and 13,13$ pupils. The total expenses of the
year for school pm•p":es ts ere $15,837,183.
The present estimated value of school property
in the State is $15.337,183. Ilesidcs the pub
lic schools there are Live NOIIIIII3 schools, with
06 profe,sors an 1 tutors, [lnd 2,675 students.
The buildings and grounds of these schools
are valued at $261,667, and the furniture and

THE PARDONING PpwEitt.
One of the most Important attributes of Ex•
ecutive Power in State or Nation is the exer
cise of the pardoning power. It is well that
justice should be tempered with mercy, but it
is not well for communities that justice should
be supplanted by mercy.- Every man.whaJa:
convicted of a crime has some domestic and
social relations, and scarcely any one is ever
scut to prison whose confinement there does
not operate ns a hardship upon some entirely
innocent persons. To balance between the.
injury that is done to these persons by the
imprisonment of the guilty party and the
wrong that would be inflicted upon the, com
munity by the release of the offending one is
almost always a question of great delicacy to
decide, and it is not strange that many mis.
takes are made in tile exercise of the pardon
ing power. The number of applii atldns made
to Gov. Geary for pardons during last year
was twelve hundred and forty, end the amount
of labor and care which were required to de
ckle whether those applications ought to be
granted or refused must have been very great.
In only sixty-two of these cases were the rip.
plientions favorably regarded, and the fact
that eleven hundred and seventy.eight of these
petitions were rejected is a significant com
mentary upon mod ern pardon petitions
We do not know the number of convictions
that were made during the last year, but it is
evident that If this whole number of petitions
had been granted there would have been a
partial, at least, nullification of the work oi
the Courts. And it is hardly worth while to
maintain a judicial system for the trial and
conviction of criminals and then absorb the
Governor's time in undoing their work. The
' pardoning power was not conferred upon the
Executive for that purpose, and it were
better that there were no pardoning power at
all than that all the petitions should have been
granted. Looking over the list of the slaty
two pardons which were granted last year by
Gov. Geary and noticing by whom the peti
tions were signed, we do•not wonder that
their prayers were favorably considered.
They were signed by Members of Congress,
Judges, District Attornics, Lawyers and pro•
minent citizens, and the character of the men
represented by the names would be accepted
es almost proof positive that the cases were
worthy of Execution interference. But it is
highly probable that just as respectable and
influential names were appended to many of
the eleven hundred and seventy-eiglit petitions
which were rejected, and the practical lesson
which we would impress upon the public
in regard to this very important subject is the
necessity of the strictest care and caution iu re.
gard to the signature of these petitions. There
are ens, s where the exercise of the pardoning
power is a necessity and an advantage, but
these casts are comparatively rare, and bear
a very small ratio to the number of contic
thins. They 'oust necessarily be so unless our
whole judicial system is a fiction and a fraud,
and the fact that a man has been convicted of
crime is not prima facie evidence that he de
eervcs to be p,u•doned. The community has
rights and privileges which must be regained
and respectetimnd it is hater that the few im
mediately dependent upon the convicted party
in a community should be swept away. The
should suffer titan that all securities for life and
to; ertymople nmst hold thaxecutive respon
sible Cur the priii.er use of the pardoning pow
er,but it is their business to ace that he is not
flooded with petitions Which are supported by
no tanythic grtund of either justice or mercy.

Tot: Smingfoild, Mass., Republican says
that Miss Elise Hensler, formerly a resident
of that city and a singer in one Millie Congre
gational choirs, wits the indirect cause of the
present European war. She was some time
ago married to l'ion Fermtneo i , father of the
King of Portugal, and the 'Spanish throne
was several times offered to Fernando, both
before nod since his marriage. Miss Ilensler
meant to become Queen of Simla, just to re.
'tamge herself on the noble ladies of Madrid
and Lisbon who looked down upon her on ac
count of her humble origin. Fernando left the
acceptimee of the crown dependent upon the
position whieh o should be awarded his wife,
who was bound to be recognized as Queen or
nothing, and its the Spanish Minister would
not agree to that the negotiations were broken
and the crown was offered to the Prince
of Hohenzollern. This, as is well known, was
!nude the pretext for the declaration of war
ngionst Prussia by France, and so this Massa
chusetts girl's ambition has been quite potent
In results.
ls Seine satisfaction to know that Capt.
Eyre, the commander of the British Steamer
Bombay which ran into the American steamer
Oneida on the cost : ef Japan, has been dis
missed from the service of the Veninsulaund
Oriental Steamship Comitany, This dimissal
was certainly richly deserved •by the Inhu
manity which Capt. gyre manifested on that
dec. aloe, and It is pleasant to know that he
w t have a chance to repeat the conduct
nined for him the censure of tho
rid.
THE LEttIOECItEGISTER, ALLEnOWN, WEDNESDAY
THElriltllPE POLICY.
review of the state of the Iron market for
1870 has been published by Mr. Edward
Samuel, of Philadelphia, the facts of which are
important and suggestive. There was a steady
and gradual decline in the market price of No.
.1 1 113.....4 0 4. thyouglt.the..year, the extremes
being $35.17 per ton in January and $30.60
per ton in December. The average prices for
the intermediate months were as follows :
February, $34.00 ; March, $33.95 ; April,
*32.50; May, $82.50; June, $82.40; July,
$32.44; August, $88.60 ; September, $32.69 ;
October, $81.88; November, $81.25. The
reduction in the average market price was
thus $4.07 for the year, and the average reduc
lion per ton as compared with the prices of
1809 was $7.51. In 1809 the extreme prices
of the year were $42.18 in January and $37.60
in December, a reduction of $4.58 for the year.
The reduction in prices last year,as compared
with the previous year, has borne hardly
upon the manufacturers,because their expenses
Were fully as largo in 1870 as in 1809. And
with no reduction in the cost of the raw ma-.
terials used and in the labor employed in the
manufacture, and with a constantly falling
market for the manufactured product there
can of course be but little profit, even if there
is not a positive loss.
The importance of the iron interest in this
locality rendersit exceedingly desirous that the
future of the iron trade should be inviting and
prosperous, and any legislation by Congress
which tends to cripple the iron business is a
direct and forcible blow at the business pros.
perity and material development of the. region
of which Allentown is the business and social
centre. Favorable legislation, on the Mbar
hand, and by this we mean nothing more than
fair protection against the pauper labor by
Which the British iron masters make their iron,
would double the number of furnaces in the
Lehigh Valley in five years, and more than
double the business done In this vicinity.
Our Iron Companies are, with no exceptions
as far as we have personal knowledge, ready
to build additional Furnaces as soon as the
condition of the trade will warrant such a
step, and the simple difference to this region
between fair and reasonable Protection for
'loam Industry and Free Trade will be the
difference between prosperity and ruin. The
Lehigh Valley was evidently designed by
Nature as one of the great iron producing dis
tricts of the world,.for there are here all the
requisites of abundant and comparatively
cheap raw materials and nearness to market.
With all these natural advantages it were cer
tainly criminal to neutralize them by adverse
legislation, and we hope that our industrial
resources will have from Congress the consid
eration which their importance demands.
And It is not only in the interest of the iron
trade and of our own city and county that we
advocate the protective policy against the
insidious fallacies of the so called " revenue
reformers," but there is no other way in
which the industry of the whole country can
be brought out and made available and pro
ductive. Protection will aid in the develop
ment of our own resources and in the building
up of our own industries, while Free Trade
builds up foreign manufactures curried on by
degraded and underpaid labor at the expense
of our own artizans and laborers. Surely
there ought to be no question between two so
conflicting po'icies as these in a community
which lives by Industry and thrift.
hi the SENATE On Wednesday, bills were
introduced to unable honorably discharged
soldiers and sailors, their widows and orphan
children, to acquire homesteads on public
lands of the United States; to encourage the
development of the mineral wealth of the
United States, and incorporating a United
States Mining School and Metallurgical Acad
emy ; incorporating the Japan Steam Navi
gation Company. The bill amendatory of
the funding act of last session, authorizing an
increase of the' issue of five.per cent. bonds
from two hundred millions to five hundred
millions, and making the interest payable
quarterly, was passed. In the House, the
dill providing for an International exhibition
in Philadelphia iu 1870 as a celebration of the
centennial of American Independence came up
but was postponed for want of a quorum.
Notice was given that the San Domingo reso
lutions would be brought before the House on
Illoilday. Bills were introduced and referred
to extend the benefits of the homestead policy
to disabled soldiers and sailors, and to the
widows, orphans, and dependent relatives of
those who died in the service of the coun
try ; to provide for the pay of election officers
appointed by the United States judges in
cities having upwards of twenty thousand in
' habitants ; and to provide that no pension
shall hereafter be allowed, except in cases
where the Wounds or disabilities are contract
ed in actual hostile service against the public
enemy.

CONGRESSIONAI
CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
The Constitutional Convention movement
comes up early and prominently before the
Legislature, as we have several times remark.
ed would be the case. Speaker Wallace, of
the Senate, in his introductory speech, alluded
to the matter, and as soon as the organization
of the Senate was completed, two bills for
calling such a Convention were introduced,
one by Senator Connell, of Philadelphla, and
the other by Senator White, of Indiana. Sen
ator Buckalew also introduced a resolution,
which was adopted, providing for the appoint
ment of a select special committee of seven, to
consider the subject of Constitutional reform.
Gov. Geary In his message referred to the
Importance of Constitutional revision, and to
the leading topics upon which he judged
reform to be necessary at considerable length,
as follows :
Four yearif experience as an executive offi
cer has given me abundant opportunity for
careful observation upon the workings of our
fundamental law, and the legislation of the
State. This experience has strongly im
pressed me that there should ho a thorough
revision of the State Constitution, with such
amendments as t he wisdom of a convention
assembled for that purpose would undoubtedly
suggest, and an enlightened public sentiment
demand. •
The authority fur holding such convention
is found in the second section of the ninth
article of the Constitution, and is declared in
these words: "That ell power is inherent in
the people, and all free governments are
founded on their authority, and instituted for
their peace, safety and happiness. For the
advancement of these ends, they have, at all
times, nn inalienable and indefeasible right to
alter, reform, or abolish their government, in
such manner as they may think proper."
The last convention for this purpose was
held in „1838. During the thirty-two years
which have since elapsed, sundry amendments
have been made by joint resolutions of the
General Assembly, and, in compliance with
the tenth article of the Constitution, were ap•
proved and ratified by a mnjority of the qual
ified voters of the State. The most Important
were those of 1850, making the judges of the
courts elective; of 1857, creating a Sinking
Fund, regulating the public debt and legisla
tive districts ; and of 1804/conferring the right
of suffinge upon those engaged in the military
service of the State or Nation, and imposing
sundry restraints on the power of the Legisla.
lure. These amendments, though important
and valuable, give an incongruous and sort of
patch-work character to the Constitution, and
are not consonant with the requirements of
the times.
This is a progressive period, and our State
has outgrown its fundamental law. That law
should, therefore, be made to keep pace with
the age in which we live. The existing Con
stitution, including the amendments of 1857
andlBo4,imposes many wholesome restrictions
on the power and jurisdiction of the Legisla
ture ; but experience has demonstrated their
inadequacy to protect the people against the
evils intended to be remedied, and especially
those of corporate power, and of special and
local legislation. The pamphlet laws for the
last four years sit f•sv that the general laws for
each session made only about one hundred
pages, whilst the local and special legislation
for the same period amount annually to about
thirteen hundred and fifty. The resulting
evils are manifold and aggravated ; and prom
inent among the reasons and suggestions why
a remedy should be applied, I respectfully
submit the following :
First.—Different systems of laws of roads,
bridges, schools, elections, poor-houses and
many other things, are enacted for the seve•
rul counties, townships and boroughs, on
subjects which ought to be regulated by gen
e eral laws, operating uniformly upon all.
Second.—lt is impossible for the citizens,
judges of the courts, or members of the legal
profession, to acquire or retain an accurate
knowledge of the varying•systerns of laws in
I their respective districts ; and frequently on
removal from one county to another, our pen
!
pie find themselves under almost entirely dif
ferent codeS.
Third.—Practically, the whole theory of our
Constitution and government is subverted and
destroyed by the present system of local en
actments. Representative government is
based on the idea that the laws shall be
framed by, and be the result of, the collective
wisdom of the people's representatives. But
what are the actual facts? The minds and ef
forts °Rile members are so wholly absorbed
by private and local bills that it is almost im
possible to get a general or public act consid
ered or passed. The special and local bills
are usually drawn by the member represent.
ing the locality, or by some one from the dis
trict Interested in the proposed law. By what
is called courtesy, it is considered n breach of
etiquette for any member of the Senate or
House to interfere with or oppose a merely
private or local bill of any other member. The
result is, the bills are passed as originally pre
pared without examination or comparison of
views,—often crude and ill-digested, and with
out regard to constitutional requirements, or
sound public policy. Some of the worst of
these hasty and badly considered enactments
are arrested every year by Executive interpo•
sition ;
but in the nature of the case, the veto
at best only be made a partial restraint
upon the evil; and nothing can eradicate it
short of constitutional prohibition.
Fourth.—Special legislation is the great and
impure fountain of corruption, private specu
lations and public wrongs. It has become a
reproach to republican government, and is one
of the most alarming evils of the times. Ju
dicious amendments to the Constitution would
arrest and destroy the growing eVil ; and it is
the duty of every patriotic citizen to co-ope
rate in all lawful measures to effect so desira
ble a consummation. In the enactment of
laws n radical change is ditmended. Every
bill presented for adoption should be read, at
least once in full, and the yeas and nays be
recorded on its final passage.
I'ok—it is important that the State Con
stitution should he male to conform to tl.e
Constitution of the United States as recently
amended.
Sixth. —The subject of minority representa
tion is now much agitated, and Is receiving a
large share of consideration among thoughttul
and considerate men. It embraces problems
of great political importance, and its manifest
justice commends It to public favor. Whilst
some of the objects it proposes might be ob.
tained by legislative enactments, the general
principles involved are so elementary and rad.
teal, they should, if adopted, be incorporated.
into the fundamental law.
Seventh.—The members of the General As
sembly should be Increased in number.
Eighth. —There should be n fundamental
limitation to the powers of corporations.
Ninth.—There is absolute necessity for
greater security for the public funds and for
their proper distribution.
Tenth. —The State Treasurer, Superinten
dent of Common Schools, and of Lieutenant
Governor, the latter to preside over the Senate,
and perform the duties of Governor in case of
his absence, sickness or death, should be
elected by the people. The Attorney Geneinl,
Secretary of State, and the. Adjutant General
should, for obvious reasons, continue to be
appointed by the Governor.
Eleventh.—The day for holding the annual
elections could,with great propriety, be chang
ed from the second Tuesday In Getober to the
same day In November on which nearly all
the surrounding States now hold theirs. This
would dispense with one election every fourth
year, and prevent Invasion from other States
for the purpose of interfering with our elec
tions, as the citizens of each State would be
occupied with their own. The season, too,
would be more satisfactory to the people °Rile
agricultural districts, as it would not interfere
with the harvesting of their corn and other
summer productions.
The necessity for constitutional reform is
appreciated and admitted by all who have re
flected upon the subject, and without distinc
tion of party, the press has been out-spoken,
and has almost unanimously sanctioned the
calling at an early day, of a constitutional
convention.
For these reasons, and many others equally
important which might be enumerated, I
earnestly recommend that the Legislature
make provision for a convention to thoroughly
revise and emend the Constitution of the State.
Gov. HOFFMAN of New York recommends
in his annual message that the new Capital
Building at Albany be finitshedm a cheaper
style than has been planned, or that work be
suspended on it until the State debt is paid
up. So far there has been about $1,250,000
expended upon it, and only the land and
foundation have yet been paid for. The
present debt of New York is $32,40,14.4,
about a million more than our own State
debt.
Tug Legislature adjourned over from Tit un
do}, until Tuesday, and not much business
will be done until after this week. • The
Speakers will appoint the Committee this
week, and when the members know what
special matters they will have to look after
and attend to during the session we hope they
will go promptly and energetically about
their work.
THE SUSPENSION
To-morrow Is the day • fixed upon by the
General penned of the Miners' Union for a
general suspension of mining operations in
the cord regions of Pennsylvania. From the
information we gain from the Miners' Jour•
nal and from conversation with individual
operators, we judge that the order of the
General Council will be pretty generally car
ried into effect. The men employed by the
three large Mining and,Trabsportation Com
panies in Lucerne county—the Delaware,
LackaWannn and Western, the Delaware and
Hudson and tile Pennsylvania—have been
idle since the first of December, and many
of the mines In the Scranton and Wyoming
regions worked by smaller companies and by
individuals have also been quiet since the men
employed by the large companies refused to
work. The object of the suspension ordered I
by the General Council is, therefore, to secure
a cessation of work in the Lehigh end Schuyl.
kill, regions and by cutting off the supplies of
coal from those quarters to cause an advance
In price which will enable work:in the mines
about Scranton to be started again et rates of
wages satisfactory to both the Companies and
the men. The Companies say that they can
not pay the wages they have been paying
unless they can get higher prices for the coal:
at New York, and the men say that they call
not afford to work for what the Companies are
willing to pay them. The large stocks of
coal held by the Companies on. the Ist of
December and the product of the other
regions have so far prevented any material
advance in prices, and the idea in ordering the
suspension is to force prices up by cutting off
the supplies. The universality of the smpemlan
which will take place to-morrow and its darn
lion are matters concerning which there is a
diversity of opinion,hut from the best informa
tion we can get we judge that nearly all the
larger 'operations will be stopped, and we
Judge also that the suspension will not be of
very long duration. The men in the Schuyl.
kill region are poorly prepared to suspend
work, for they were idle all last spring noel
summer, and have been working recently at •
low wages. Most of them used up their surplus
funds during the suspension last year, and
they can have nothing to fall back upon now.
Thousands of dollars were sent to Schuylkill
from Lucerne every month that the suspen.
sion of last year continued, but when n gene.
rat suspension takes place the men of one
region cannot send assistance to the men of
another. The Companies in Lucerne will
resume work ns soon as the condition of the
market will allow, and it is well known that
higher wages can be paid in Lucerne and
Carbon counties than in Schuylkill, for the
reason that it costs less to get the coal market
from the Wyoming and Lehigh regions. The
Schuylkill men will hardly care to remain idle
after the men in the otheeregions have resum
ed work, and we think therefore, that the
suspension will only last n few weeks at the
longest. We most earnestly hope that it will
be quickly over, for the difference between the
coal Miners of Pennsylvania being at work
and resnaining idle is Very great. It is esti.
mated that about thirty thousand miners and
laborers in Lucerne county are now idle,
land the loss to them by idleness is about $l,
500,000 per month. Let the mining opera•
lions in the other regions be stopped as gene•
rally ns In Lucerne, and the direct loss to the
laboring mem of Pennsylvania will be about
$1,000,000 per week, and every business and
industrial interest in the'itate will suffer more
or less directly and severely.
MERV. is snore trouble about the final dis
position of the picture of the Battle of Gettys•
burg, which has been painted for the State by
the Philadelphia artist, Hothermel. The pic•
ture has for some time been on exhibition at
Philadelphia, and sonic of the papers in the
State have sharply criticised the fact that a
picture -paid for out of the State Treasury
should be exhibited in this way. It turns out.
however, that by the terms of the agreement
m de with the artist the painting was to be at
his disposal until July 1871, when he was to
turn it over to the State. if completed before
that flute he w a s to have the right to exhibit
It to the public, rind as artists, like other peo•
pie, like to swell their cash receipts, Mr.
Hothermel is exhibiting the, picture at Phila
delphia to those who care to pity to see it.
Gov. Geary is reported to have directed the
Attorney General to apply for an injunction
restraining Mr. Bothermel front making this
exhibition. but the Attorney Gt neral informed
him that there wits now no means of prevent
ing Mr. Rotherinel from doing as he pleased
with the painting until the time arrived for its
delivery to the State. The question what
shall be done with•tuis $21,000 painting is now
before the Legislature, and is exciting eonsid.
erable interest and attention. Gov. Geary in
his message recommended the preparation of
a place for it at Harrisburg, but Philadelphia
and Pittsburg are both 1111Xi0113 to have it, and
as there is no suitable place ready for the pic
ture at Harrisburg It is quite likely that it will
find a final lodgment in Philadelphia.

TILE PENNSYLVANIA SCHOOLS
The thirty-seventh annual report of the I
Superintendent of Common Schools for Penn
sylvania,lNlr. 'tames P. Wickersham, shows a
gratifying growth and strength in our' system
of popular instruction. There are now 2002
school district?, a gain of 21 ; 14,212 schools,
a gain of 976; 2802 graded schools; 13,100
directors; 70 sup,rintendents, 171,612 tench
er:,, an increase of 470 ; 828,891 pupils, a gain
of 13,138. The average 'monthly . salaries of
male teachers is $40.66; of female, $39.39;
the average school term, 6.06 months, the
average attendance, 533,911, equal to .68 per
cent. Cost of tuition for year, $3.745,415 :
cost of building, $2,763;641 ; total expendi
tures, $7,771,761.20. The value of school
property is estimated at 313,837,183. Of the
school houses, 7437 are frame, 2233 brick,
1536 stone, and 291 are log ; 5441 are stated to
have sufficient grounds, and 0892 to be well
ventilated.
Of the teachers, 723'8 are male, and 87d9 fe
male, with an average age of 211 years ; one•
fourth of these have taught less than one year,
and 1862 had attended a State Normal School.
The teachers'institutes are characterized as in
valable for improving and encouraging teach
ers. Last year 11,210 actual members attended
their sessions ; these institutes were instructed
by 556 lecturers and 2ilo essayists, costing
$11.21.1. The Slate has five Normal Schools
lo operation,located at Mittersville, Edinboro',
Mansfield, Kutztown, and Illoomsbnrg ; these
had, in 1869, GO professors and 2673 students.
Pour more of these schools are organizing,
viz., :it California (Washington county),
West Chester, Shippensburg, and Lock
Ilaven. The obstacles whieb yet impair the
efficiency of these public schooli, and which
require extirpation, are : Short school terms,
irregular attendance, poorly -qualified teachers,
indisposition to grade teachers' salaries accord
ing to qualifications, want of local supervis
ion of schools, 'leg:ruck of duty on the part of
dircetorii, and want of interest in education on
the part of the people. .
