I MB GUVEIiAOIt'S UESSAUE. EXECUTIVE CHAMBER, HARRISBURO, October 6lh, 1857. 3b the Senate and the Howe tf Representatives of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in General Assembly ml : GENTLEMEN —By virtue of the power con ferred upon me by the Constitution, 1 have ddemed it my imperative duty to convene the General Assembly at this time. As ex ■ Iraordinary occasion for so doing, contem plated by the Constitution, has arisen, and accordingly ynu have been called together to take into consideration and adopt such measures of relief as the present exigencies may seem, in your wisdom, to demand. A sudden attd severe financial revulsion has occurred, inducing a suspension of rpe tie payments by the banks of this Common wealth and in eomo of our sister States.— This was unavoidable, having become, from the operation of causes necessary now to be enumerated, a stern necessity. Thus cir cumstanced, the community are suffering Irom the want of a currency; the destruction of confidence, and the numerous evils con sequent on financial embarrassment. Every department of industry has felt and been disastrously affected by the shock; trade and commerce have been paralyzed; (he mer chant, the manufacturer, the mechanic have seen their bright prospects suddenly blasted, and many have been involved in a ruin which tio ordinary sagacity or foresight could avert. Marty of our furnaces, rolling irtlilr. and lactones have been closed, extensive and valuable coal operations have been suspend ed or abandoned, and thousands Of work men are out of employment, oppressed with doubt and anxiety, and alarmed with gloomy apprehensions of the future. It is not my intention to discuss in this communitaiion the cause ol the present financial difficulties and commercial embarrassment. The evil ) upon us, troubles surround us, and to re lieve the community, restore confidence, and bring back the prosperity lately enjoyed, and which it is hoped, is but temporarily inter- Ttipled, prompt und harmonious ac:ion, wire and generous legislation) will he required.— The present exigency requires, and overy consideration of the present Mid future inter est of the Commonwealth and the people woutd 6eem to demand, that the banks should bo released from the penalties and forfeitures incurred, and a suspension should be authorized for such reasonable period as Will enable them sefely to resume the pay ment of their liabilities in specie. To force the Banks into a too cnrly liqui elation, would compel them lo require imme diate payment from their debtors, and wonlJ entail upon the community the miseries of wide-spread bankruptcy aud ruiiij while on the other hand, an unreasonable extension of the unnatural state of suspension would greatly increase the rvils of unredeemable yiaper currency. The resumption of specie payments should not be | osi potted longer than is clearly necessary and tho best inter ests of the community may require. The general embarrassment and depression of trade and commerce, and the consequent depreciation of the valuo of real and lerson nl properly, if permitted to continue, will se riously affect the revenue of the Common kvealth; the credit of the State, now so well sustained and so honorable lo Iter character, snay be endangered, not by any liability to pay, but from the difficulty, if not the im possibility of procuring a medium in which payment can be made. Tho faiili of ttie Slate must bo preserved Intact. 1 therefore reeomraenil that the Ranks, which may he relieved from the pen alties upon such stispeasion by existing taws, shall be required to make a satisfactory ar rangement with the State Treasurer, by 'which lie will be enabled to convert the cur rent funds in the Tieasury and balances siauding la his credit in any of the solvent Hanks of the Commonwealth into specie, as soon as the same shall -become necessary fot the payment of the interest on the fund ed debt. And as a further relief to the community, and as a condition of the release of the pen alties and forfeitures incurred, it is respect fully recommended that the solvent banks nf tho Commonwealth, which paid specie fot all their .liabilities, immediately prior to their late general suspension, shall be re quired (tinder euelt limitations and restric tions as may be deemed expedient,) to re ceive the notes of each other, continuing sol vent at par, in payment of uII debts due, or to become due to them respectively during their suspension; the bank or biinks resum ing specie payments to be relieved from this rondition. " For the debtors, provision should be made for wi extension of the lime in which eqecutions on judgments may in crease the period no provided by law, for -the stay of executions. The issue ol relief or bnnk notes of a less licnomination than'five dollars should not now be authorized, nor should the Banks, doting tnvir suspension, be permitted to de cline dividends exceeding six per cent, per annum. Tho monied institutions of the Common wealth, it is believed, are generally in a sound and solvent condition, and it the measures suggested be adopted, the banks will be enabled to meet all their liabilities, supply a currency adequate to the demands •of legitimate trade and the otditttyy business of life Yegain public confidence, aid and re vive every branch of industry, and save their vredt ots nnd the community Irom the bank ruptcy and ruin, inevitably consequent on the intense pressure of the present financial vrifis. The qucsiions submitted for your determi nation arc important arid numerous. The} fise far above all pariizan or political consid erations or calculations. A suffering com ment!} in the hour of their anxiety anil per il expect at your hand 6 prompt and patriotic trttiioti for their relief. lnfluenced'by no other consideration than the public good, promplod by no other than honest and honorable convictions of a public and private duly, may the result ol your de liberation* meet the expectations, relieve the wants, and harmonize with the true interests of the people. , ~ .IAMKS i'OLbOCk Special Notices.

It 1 matters not from what cause the disease origi nated, however long standing or ohsti into the case, recovery is certain, and in a shorter time than n permanent cure can be effected bv any j oilier treatment, een alter the disease has liaf j lied the skill of eminent physicians and resist j ed all the means of euro. The medicines are ■ pleasant without odor, causing r.n sickness nnd free from mercury or balsam. During 20 years of practire, i have rescued from the jaws of death many thousands, who, in too Inst stages of the above mentioned diseases had henn given up to die by their physicians, which warrants me in promising to the afflict ed, who may place themselves under my care, a perfect and most speedy cure. Secret dis eases aro the greatest enemies to health, as they are the fust cause of Consumption, Scrof ula and many other diseases, and should be a ! terror lo the human family. As a permanent i cure is scarcely ever effected, a majority of the cases fulling into the bands of incotnpe- I tent persons, who not only fail to cure the diseases but ruin tho constitution, filling tho system with mercury, which, willi tho disease, hastens the sufferer into a rupid consumption. 11 ut should the disease and the treatment not cause death speedilv and tho victim ntar ! ties, the disease i- entailed upon children, who 1 | aro born wtth fecblo constitutions, and Iho | current of life corrupted by a virus which l>c irays itself in Scrofula, Tetter, Ulcers, Erup ; lions and other affections of tho skin, Eyes, Thrust aud Lungs, entailing them to un early giave. Scll'-otiuso is another formidable enemy lo health, for nothing else in tho dread catalogue of human diseases causes so destructive a drain upon the system, drawing its thousands of victims through a few years of suffering down to an untimely giave. It destroys the Ner- | vous system, rapidly wastes away the energies of life, causes mental derangement, prevents ■he proper development of the system, dis qualifies for marriage, society, business, and all earthly happiness, and leaves the sufferer wrecked in body and mind, predisposed to consumption and a train of evils moic to be I dreaded than death Itself. With the fullest confidence 1 assure the unfortunate viotims of sclf.uhUse that a permanent and speedy cure can bb effected, and with the abandonment of ruihous practices my pa'icnts can be restored (o robust, vigoious health. Tho afflicted are cautioned against the uso of Patent Medicines, for ihere are so many inge nious snares in ihecolumns of the public prints to carch and rob tho unwary suffereis that millions have their constitutions ruined by the vile compounds of qusck doctors, or the equally poisonous nostrums v need as 'Patent Medicines.' 1 havo carefully analysed many of the so called Patent Medicines and find that nearly all of them contain Corrosive Sunli mate, which is One of the strongest prepara tions of meicury and a deadly poison, which instead of curing the disease disables the sys tem for life.
