Fremont's -protection of St. Louis,' made it a splendid -base'of|. operations. His eatay starting of Urn gunboats proved the saltation of many of onr armies, and the loss to the rebels of • maay cities. His mode of dealing with the ‘ staves of the outlawed, is what the govern ment has had to oome to, at last. And had he been properly sustained by Shields and MqDoweU in the valley of the Shenandoah, he would have captured the army of Stonewall Jaokson, and. thus pfertiaps pre vented ail oursubsequent disasters' in Cen tral Virginia. And so with Cameron ; he qarly; advocated, whiler.the north was warmer and more united, calling out; a m ilU on of men, to conquer and possess jus they Went. He jad vised the cavalry now needed, and also to use the power of . the slaves in favor of the Union, and not against it All; see, now, that those views were correol: both those gentlemen reali ied and foretold the extent and power of the rebellion, and wisely foreoast adeqipt* means to check it.

There is still due to the State, prlnoi pslly for advanoes sinoe made for transpprta- Uon and equipments of. volunteers, about three hundred thousand, dollars. On the 20th of February last, I Issued my warrant- authorising the State Treasurer to i deliver to the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Company one thousand |of the bonds deposit ed with the state In conformity with the Aet of May 7.1891. On tbfc JOth of November I iuued a similar warrant. Both warrants were granted after recelvingreperti from Jno. A. Wright; Esq., the commissioner appoint ed for . the pnrpose, that the proceeds of the bonds previously issued had been appropriated In aooordanoe with the provis ions or the law. The company has. now re ceived three of the five millions of bond* de posited In the State Treasury. With the pro ceeds of the bonds issued, fifty-two miles of road have been oompleted, making with what had formerly been finished,a total of one hun dred and ninety-nine miles,, leaving eighty nine miles unfinished, of which nearly all is snded and ready for tho iron.

I : Unless the Lcgi-suturo should otherwise provide it will be the duty of tbe'Stete Trea- ! surer to pay in like manner the internet which I will fall due hereafter. We should all be careful not to violate the faith or impair the •jrodit of tho Commonwealth. The serious and early consideration of the Legislature is Invited to the whole subject. Iu my opinion-ibex© are already more In corporated banks iu the Commonwealth than are at prerent required for the publlo eon»en lenoe, and I therefore recommend that no more shall bo Incorporated. Oil the 7th of J aly last, a call was made by the President for threo hundred thousand vol unteers. This State had already supplied nearly one hundred and ten thousand men, yet bor people p-otnpily bestirred themselves »r respond to this new requirement. Al though it was believed that no bounties would bo neoessary to induce tho men of Pennsylvania tlo enter the oervioe of their country on 6UOQ an occasion, yet as some of the neighboring States offered large boun ties, it was thought not right to expose oar eiticent to the temptation 'thus afforded to them to enlist in regiments o? other Statee. There being no appropriation for the pay ment of bounties, I, ot course, could nut, di rect them to be paid out of tho treasury, and jt was evident that to call the Legislature to gether and wait for tho negotiation of any loan which might.b.o eu’.horitvd for the pur pose, would be attended by injurious delay. Under the*© ciroumstanoos I confidently ap pealed by proclamation to a people who have never faltered in the perleruance of ftpy duty of patriotism, oalling on them to raise in their several tho sums neoessary to insure their proportion of the quota of the State. This appeal waß.effeotually. answered. Publio meetings wurtii held, and liberal amounts snbsorioed by individuals. In the ciij of Philadelphia, btsldes a very large fund thus .raised, the inuuioipal authorities contributed heavily froai their common treas ury, and in several oouiitlei the county com missioners, generally under the guarantee of a few of their eminent'eitiione, devoted coun ty funds to the eamo pßfpos*. I recommoiid that those proceedings;!}© legalised, and sub mit to the wisdom of ij tho Legislature the duestion of what legislation would bo just and proper on the whdlb subject that tho qur dou of this patriotic effAfrt may fall equally on all classes of people tMbttghuut the State. Tho -resale or this manifestation of public spirit was that new regiments *nd three unattached] eotapaniea of iafantry were raised ; four oilier regiments, which, previous to this call, n*d boon authorised by the War Department iol.be raised are still in progress of organisation. Oa special rcqulsitiJni frofn the War De partment there nave Beta raisod and are now in service fivo additional regiments, arid three companies ofuavalryj tjwo batteries of heavy artillery, and one balthry of l ight artillery. A battalion of heavy 'artillery I* .being, raised by Major Joseph Huberts, U. S. A , with my I asaont, alio under rpeolal authority of the War Department.' ] Early in September last the rebel army I crouud tho Pviomcc into Maryland, with the design of invading this State. On the 4th of that month I called upon the people by Pro clamation to organise Into companies and hold themselves in readiness to be ordered into aotual service for the . defence of the State. And on.the 11th ol that month, under authority of the President, I issued orders for fifty thousand volunteer ailitia,-to, rendezvous at Harrisburg, for the defence Of the State. This call wds promptly responded to, and a large force was sent forward to tho Cumber- | land Valley and its vicinity. The firet pert; of this force, consisting of one reglfrient and j eight companies of infantry, movett from Har- | ri.burg on tho nlghtJbf the 12th ot September, and were followed by other regiments as rap- : idly as they oonid be organised and transpor tation provided. The command of the whole force was taken b/Brigadier General John P. Reynolds, who left hit-corps iu the Army of the Potomao urgent request, and hurried to the defatlhe of Jxts native State, for whloh he Is the thanks of the Com monwealth. Fifteen thousand of the volun teer militia were pished forward to Hagere town and Boonabafi?', in the Btate of Mary land; ten thousand-ware posted in the vicinity of Greencaetleao<&§hambef*barg;end about twenty-five thousand were at Harrisburg, on their way to Uarraburg, or in readiness and 1 waiting for transportation to proeeed thither.. One regiment, atjiJjj request of Gen. Halleek, was sent to Powder Mills, in the State of Delaware. On the 24th of Sep tember the voiunt&r mlliua were discharged .by me from eerviei, haviog by their spirited demonstration greatly aided in preventing the intended invasioolbf the State by the rebels, and in compelling 1 their sudden ovaouation nf tbo portion of Maryland which they had pol luted. For these services, the thanks of the Governor of Maryland and of the Commander o f the Army of the Potomac were rendered to our, patriotic troops through me. Measures have been taken to procure the payment in full of these troops, and of the expenses at tending their services, by the United States, in accordance with tho terms of tbeoell.by the President. A large portion of the amouot has already been paid. Having accompanied this force to Hagerstown, 1 am enabled to ■peak of the oourage, fidelity and cheerfulness with whloh the men suffered unaccustomed privations, and bore the fire of tho rebel foxoe, performing with alacrity the itrvico that was required of them. On the 4th of August last, a draft of throe hundred thousand militia, to serve forjilne mouths, was ordered by the President under the not of'CoDgreis ot 17th July, 18S3, and regulations were made by his; authority in pursuance of that act, under which regula tions the enrolment and draft were eonduoted in this State, our mlliua laws being found to be defective. Several counties and districts having already supplied by volunteers their proportion of the quota of this State, were exompted from the draft, and time was given to enable others to raise the required number of man by voluntary eoliitcaeote. The draft was generally orooeeded with throughout the State on the ldth day of betober last, and the drafted mon were directed.io be placed in the several camps of rendezvous established un der the regulations, where they were organis ed and elected their ofloers, and have since gone forward to tho army in the field. The draft was eminently suooesifuli and when the men had hoen marobed to the Rendezvous, my agenoy in the matter ceasod and all authority and control over the men devolved on the United Stales ofQeers. £ cannot but commend tho people of Pennsylvania for their cheerful obodlenoe to the requirements of tho Govern ment on this oocaslon. Ail the expenses of the draft are, of oourse, to bs paid by the United States, and I learn that offioers are now in the State charged with the settle ments and payments. Including the three months volunteers, Pennsylvania has furnished to tho geueral government, more than two hqndred thousand men sinoe the breaking oat' of the rebellion, besides so'me fifty thousand who woro lo ser vice, or aetually ready for it, as volunteer militia under the call of 11th September last, making in the whole more than two hundred and fifty thousand mou. ; In October last, a body of rebel cavalry witb.ft battery of artillery, suddenly crossed the Potomao and made thoirjway as far as ObambersbUrg, plundering what thoy fused of supplies useful to them and committing other depredations* They went out of the State by crossing the South Mountain, and thus reaching the Potomao below Harper's .Forty. Tho troops in tbo field were not pre pared at the moment to punish this attempt on her sell, and it is to be much regretted that efficient measures could hot have been, taken by the army to capture the rebels on.their re turn to. the Potomac. Immediately after I received motion that this force bad crossed the line of the State, I called into service the An derson Cavalry, then encamped at Carlisle, and two oompanies of Regulars at the Bar racks at that plaoe. These troops were pushed forward In-th# direction of Chambersbnrg and South Mountain. Thccavalrv at Camp Car tin, eonftstlng of one fplt and two Imperfect regiments, were armed as infantry, and, to gether with two oompanies of tofantry and a Battery of volunteer light artillery of Harris burg, were held in readihcii to gp. forward, Lwhen-Major General Wool/arrived tad *•- j turned the command orall theforoes.

The militia law of this State is greatly de fective, and I earnestly recommend the ap pointment of a commission, to prepare ana sabmit an efficient system, to be reported be fore the adjournment of the Legislature, so that aotion may be had on the subjeot at the present session. In the burry of ordinary business the Legislature might not be able to give the necessary attention to the r re P* r * tioo of a proper measure, and events which have already occurred prove the necessity of some effcotaal Legislation on tho subject, so that our people may be adequately .protected.

Tothagenersl astonishment, a ma jority of the commission hare reported in fa vor of New Loudon, but the minority has pre sented a report, which Is fortified by the ; ap proval of the Secretary of the Navy, shotting so conclusively the superiority of League Island that it is scarcely possible that Con gress should hesitate to lotect that location. To establish a NaTjr Yard for the construction of iron-olad vessels at a point remote froth all necessary supplies, situated on salt water, and accessible by more than one route to any enemy, who may have a momentary superior ity at sea, would appear to be quite incon sistent with the wisdom of Congress, espe cially when a site is offered convenient to ires, ooal, and other neoessary supplies, situated on fresh water with a sufficient depth for the draught of large vessels, and safe from hos tile attack by its position. Captain Henry E. Wrigley, of the city of Philadelphia, at my request, and without compensation, has made a report to me tin the defences of the Delaware, whioh I herewith transmit for Information. ! In July last, I received, at Pittsburgh, by telegraph, an offer from the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, of a donation of fifty: thou sand dollars to assist in paying bounties to volunteers. I declined, this offer, because I had no authority to accept it on behalf ;of the pnbllo, and was unwilling to undertake the disbursement of the fhnd in my private ca pacity. I have sinee received a letter en the subject from the company suggesting other modes of disposing of tho money, a Copy of which is annexed to this message. If the Legiilatnro should accept' the dona tion, I recommend that it be applied towards the erection of an asylum for our disabled soldiers, and that the trustees appointed to superintend the erection and management of the asylum be authorized to accept such far ther contributions as onr citizens may offer. In a well managed establishment of that kind, it if probable that the pensions to be allowed by the Government to the fcen, will enable them to support themselves with comfort. By an wet of Congress passed on the second day of July, 1861, lands were granted to the several States fer the endowment, support .and maintenance by each State* of .at least one college for teaching such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the lianio arts, withont exolading other soitn snd elassieal stndies, and including mlli taotlci. recommend that proper provision be mado he Legislature for having the lands thus ted to this State selected, and: the title s to the Btaie, and that Congress be fe ted to allow the lands and their proceed* - s used by the Btate in the construction and *rt of such an asylum as I have above rested. be details of tho operations of the oommon tol system, during the school year that linatod on the first Monday In June, scarcely any evil effects from the ibled state of the country. Absonoeofthe at degree of progress in the various de unenU is the only result observable. To e held Us own, however, during the severe sal to whioh, In common with an onr’great ial Interests and enterprises, it has been looted, is the strongest proof of~lu inher vtgor, and of the hold U possesses upon affections as well as the judgment of the pie of the Btate. . t has come to my knowledge that in some ts of the State a system exists of paying i wages of workmen and laborers not In ney but In orders on storekeepers for mer tndlicand other articles. Thls system, by [venting all competition, JeaTOSttbe men to i uncontrolled discretion of [the store spers. Itis a sysUm most unwise and un it, and it offsets classes of useful oitisens, io, as they live by the prooeett* of their ihr labor, have not adequate means to re t it. I have no doubt that most of the dif aUlos which occasionally occttf between inloyert and their workmen arsf due to the , Bvalenoe of this system. That; every man, r a fair day's : labor, should receive a fair v's wages, is but the dictate ;of common iaeety; and while It would be most unwise r the State to Interfere at all With the rate wages, it Is In my Judgment incumbent en .r to protect her laboring population by re tiring that whatever may be the wages stip-, a tod? they shall be so paid that the redpl ii may purchase necessaries fori himself and ! s family, where they can be had the best id cheapest. I do most earnestly reoommend ill snbjeet to the Legislature for promptand i Esetualaetioa. ' . , I believe that the several oharitable Insti itions to which the Legislature has bsen ae- i tstomed to grant aid, nave been well man sed daring the pact year. ‘ The Wyoming Canal Is itlU id the hands ef | toreeeiver. Certain creditors of: the eompasy , avlng Instituted proceedings In the Supreme i ourt for selling the canal under the mart- ; age, the Attorney General had Intervened In be suit to oppose the .making/of a decree of | ale. No decree has been made; and the pro eedings are yet pending. Mohowhlle, it be- I eg alleged that the subieribsH and stock holders have -paid up but a sufail part of the tomlnal capital of the company;,; an Informa- j lon has been filed In the supreme Court by he Attorney General, to compel them to pay ; ip the capital,, or such charges, and assess- ; Beats as mayfhe-necassary'to extinguish the lebt due to the Commonwealth.

In pnrshanoe of the joint resolution passed llth April,lBM, the Attorney General hw Instituted prootedlngi on the proper cashier s bonds, to recover the money dpe to the Com monwealth by the Bank of Commerce at Erie, and I have employed John H.jWalker, Esq., as special codnsel for the Commonwealth, in' the prosecution of the officers of the bank In the Court of Quarter Session* of Erie county. In accord an oe with the provision of the Aot of fith Maj,;lBo2, an information in equity was filed by the Attorn*/ General agolnst the Delaware and Hudson Canal‘Company and the Pennsylvania Coal Company. The care was.argued before the Supreme Court at Seu bery, In Ootober last. • By an Act passed on tbe lfith day of May, 1861, a company was incorporated by the name of the Navy Yard, Bro»4_ street and Falmount' Railway coQipanyi It bsiog al leged that the company, instead of making a railway on the route and in the manner pre scribed by its oharter, Is constructing n ; road of a dlffsrent ohartoter by a route, ex tending from tiMl Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad depot: to the Phila delphia and; Trenton Railroad depot, both within the .city of Philadelphia, the Attorney.
