AN EXTRACT.
There is nothing so destructive to the
-morals, and we may add to the peace of
any community, as the neglect ot parents
rich or poor, to teach their sons the impor
tapce of being early engaged in some active
employment. Too many of the citizens of
every place, uudor the influence of a false
jiridc, suffer their sons, after academical
studies, to lounge about the public offices
and taverns of their places of residence,
rather than to cause them to engaje in some
Important branch of tho mechanical arts or
force them by dint of their own industry and
energies, to seek their fortune in some oth
er pursuit . Nothing is more detestable in
o5r eye, than to see a healthy good looking
youth breaking looso from tho restraints
of honorable industry, returning to his fa
ther's domical for support and loafing a
bout, ralherthan be pursuing some occupa
tion which will not only support himself,
but give gratification to his worthy parents.
Wo would say to every parent who has
such a son, bo he rich or poor rather
drive him to cut his cord of wood a day,"
than to suffer him to spend his time in idle-
ness. "An idle head is the devil s work
shop." That youth, therefore, who has
nothing to do, is very apt to become a tat
tler, a slanderer, and a liar or something
worse, and make himself tho pest of the
community in which he may reside.

THE STATE LOANS.,
The loan of 61, 200,000, which was ad
vertised was taken a few days since at a pre
mium. We learn also that that tho loan of
S570.000, authorized to meet loans falling
due this month, was taken at a premium by
Charlks S. BnoKcn, on Tuosday last.
Thus we see that notwithstanding all the
efforts of tho wings to embarass the admin
istration of Gov. Porter, and to injure the
credit of the state, that they might profit
politically by it, such is the colidence of
capitalists in his prudence and sagacity
that the individual capitalists readily,
take the loans at an interest of 5 per
cent and award a handsome premium to the
slate.
It is said by those conversant with the
subject, and we have no doubt of the fact,
that the failure of Gov. Ritner to discharge
the interest on tho state stocks in spe
cie during the suspension, as other states
did was a prominent cause of the depres
sion of our slocks abroad. While the
holders thereof are already anticipating a
moro just and enlightened policy from Gov.
Porter, the legislature should "tako early
measures 10 prevent the recurrence ot a
similar uillicully. The honor and inler-
ests of tho state alike requiie it

PENNSYLVANIA FINANCES.
We invite attention to the admirable re
port of Dn. STimnnoN. Stale Treasurer.
made to the house of represcnlatives on the
2d, of March last, and which will be found
in tins days paper, it is in all respects a
timet nnnnrlnnt rlnmimmit udnivinn- i
cits in the I reasury from 1835 to 1839,
and an estimate of tho probable amount
which will accrue from tho beginning of
tbe year 1839 lo the close of the year 1842.
The report shows one fact that will account
which Governor Porter found the Treasury
0f the commonwealth, viz that in 1838
the ordinary expenditures of government
exceeded the same cxpendiiurcs in 1830
$3-17,974 31. The following are the a-
m some measure lor the embarrassed state
mounts for each year,
1830 4709.810 -13
1838 1.117.793 74
The report will be found very useful, as
well for the estimates it ronlains of the
probable Tcvcnuc and probable expenditure
for the next three years as for tho exhibit
of the same items during the last three
years. Wo repeat that the repoit is a
highly interesting and important papei, and
will uc lounu well worthy ot attention.
