The system has been gaining in strength and tisciiiiness for a ipouter of a century, until it lias silenced opposition bv its beneficent fruits. It has at times languished for want ot jast ap I propi iatioii -, fi'iim changes and ameini 1 moists of the law, said perhaps irom in- 1 its adi niistiiition ; hut it has s-uiinouiitcd every uniicuity and is now regarded by the enlightened and patriotic of every political faith as the grand bul wark of safety for our free institutions. j The manner in which this subject is pre sented to the Legislature, by my immedi ate predecessor, iu his annual message, fully harmonizes with public sentiment; and Lis recommendation for aid to the Farmers' High School of rennsylvania meets my most cordial approbation. In vited to the rich prairie lands of the West, where the labor of the husbandman is simple and uniform, w hen population has filled our valleys, it passes away from our highland soilsVhere scientific culture is required to reward labor by fruitfulucss and plenty out of comparative sterility. While individual liberality has done much for au institution that is designed to edu cate the farmer of the State, the School languishes for want of public aid. Au experience of ten years has fully demon strated that the institution can be made self-sustaining; and it requires 110 aid from the. Stare except ibr the completion of the buildings iu accordance with the 1 ue URG, PA., THURSDAY, JANUAR f.-riyinal design. A liberal arproprlatiun ; and, as a n:itural coii.eijUencc, Jeruing for that purpose v uld be honorable to j our exehanye.s and currency, the Legislature :mi a jn.-t iH-ognition of i'et the eleitients of general prosperity a system of public instraetioii that i.s of j are every where uiii'used amongst us, ar.d the highest iniporta.nea to the Shite in the j nothing is wanting but a return ,..' couS develo;;i'.iei;t ei'our wealth, the 'jrowih of i uenee to enable- us to rea'i therieh reward prusperity oi our .
