25,000 refused to be mustered into the
service of the United States', iii consequence
of circumstances of prior occurrence not
necessary to be here stated.
In this embarrassment, the emergency
being very pressing, after cousultation
with the President, he authorized and re
quested me to call them on behalf of the
State, and for the defence of the State
the United States paying all the expenses
of their clothing, equipment, subsistence,
&c. It was, however, alleged that there
was no appropriatiou for their pay. To
remove this difficulty the General Govern
ment applied to banks and other moneyed
corporations in Philadelphia to advance
the amount of the pay, on a pledge that,
when Congress met, the passage at a bill
to' reimburse them should be recommend
ed. These institutions declined tins pro
position, but expressed their willingness
to make tho advances, U I would pledge
myself to recommend to the Legislature
the passage tf such an act in case Con
gress should not provide for reimbursing
them. Under these circumstances, I re
ceived from the Executive of the United
States the pledge which he had proposed
to give to the tauks, &c, aud upou that I
trave the necessary pledge to them, aud
they advanced the required funds' accord
ingly. The following telegram from the
-Secretary of . War will show in part the
ground on which I acted :
Washington. July 22, 1863.
To,-His Excellency, Gov. A. G. Ccktin :
Your telegrams, respecting tho pay of mili
tia called out under jour proclamation of the
2th of June, have been referred to the Presi
dent for instructions, and have been under
his consideration. lie directs me to say that,
while no law or appropriation authorizes the
payment by the General Government of troops
that hava not been mustered into the service
or the Unite! States, he will recommend to
Congress to make an appropriation for the
payment of troops called into State service to
repel an actual invasion, including those of
the State of Pennsylvania. If, in the mean
time, you can raise the necessary amount, as
hjis been done iu other States, the appropria
tion will be applied to refund the advance to
those who made it.
Measures have been taken for the payment
of troops mustered into the United Staes
ftrrvice, as soon as the muster and par rolls
ure made out. The answer of this Depart
ment to you, as Governor of the State, will
be given directly to yourself whenever the
Dep.irtruent is prepared to make answer.
(Signed) EDWIN M. STANTON,
Secretary of War.
' When Congress in si, the Executive of
the United States did not recommend the
passage of the necessary act. I have un
derstood that the subject was called to
the attention of the proper committee, by
the Secretary of War, but a3 the Presi
dent did not t$end a message explaining
the circumstances of the case, the 'appro
priatiou failed, as the members of Con
gress had thus no means of explaining to
their constituents the difference between
the cae (which was in (substance a loan
to the Uuited States, upon the pledge of
the Executive for its repayment), and the
case of the voluntary expenditure of mo-ut-y
for military purposes of Pennsylvania
und most of the other States.
I will add that the men came into the
service for the emergency only, and oti the
faith that they should be discharged as
noon as, in my judgment, the emergency
fehould have ceased. The emergency
ceased immediately alter the battle of
Gettysburg, which commenced on the 1st
of July 1803; yet the men, against my
urgent aud repeated remonstrances, were
kept in the service long afterward and
used by the United States for various
purposes. The hst of them weri not dis
charged till in September.
I rccommeud that the Legislature adopt
measures to bring the subject again be
lore Congress, and obtain repayment of
this sum, amouutiug to $07 1,470 43, with
interest on the same, which the General
Government has thus far so unwarrantably
withheld.
Great injustice has been done to private
collier., who went into service uuder the
provisions of the act of Congress, by re
fusing to pay them the full bounties offer
ed by the terms of that act. The follow
ing letter which I addressed to tho Secre
tary of yar, sufficiently explains the po
sition of this affair :
Executive Chamber.
IIakrisbi un, Pa., June 5, 18U3.
Sir: There are two subjects connected
with the discharge of volunteers which are of
no much importance tut I leel justified iu
calling your attention to them.
first. The men arc being paid only to the' i
tiny of their arrival at the place they are to
be discharged. This will cause them tj lose
. few days' pey, depending principally upon
the prouiptuuss aijtl disposition of the officers
of the United States having the matter in
charge. It is a matter of little moment to
the Government, but the men feel it to beau
injustice, and if, under the acts of Congress,
they can be paid on til discharged, I thank
you will agree with them.
Second. The Circular No. 20 from Provoat
Marshal General s Office, dated July 10, 8C4,
under which the volunteers now to be dis
charged were raised,"' it is stated that the
Ivuuuly provided by law is as follows :
"for teeruits, i&cludiug representative re
cruits, vlhe or colored, $luo."
And it is further added, that the first in
stalment of tho bounty will be paid when the
recruit is mustered in, aj follows r
" To a i-etruit who enlisted in the fumy- for
one yutr, $33 33."
Un these terms the men enlisted, and they
re of opinion that ihcy are entitled to the
iemaiuder of their bouuty wht n discharged
from service.
It is pioposed, however, to pay them but a
p:utoft!ui rcmaiudcr, because the Govern
ment does ut require their services for the
I'd I! term of their enlistment, and appears to
be u breach of the contract between the Go
vernment and the men. The bounty w.-.s held
ut by the Government ui an iiiduct-meut to
tnlist, not as an additional pay for service to
t;. rendered. Tho mjcu became entitled to it
by f.iL-t of i'iirjstmi nt, and could only for
te it what rei:aued unpaid by some miscon
duct, iS wi-i:H such forfeiture should bo a
legal peUiity. TUe.a i:jalUr at treating
much unjjeasant feeling among tlie met-. 1
n.eed not say to you, they have, behaved gal
lantly, and the com "try owe3 them everything;
and if it can poss.ib.ly be avoided they ought
not to be sent home under the feeling that the
Qo eminent, when tbeir services me no lon
ger required, tikes the first opportunity to
treat them unjustly nd violate ij conf.rnct
vith them,
I assure you that unless these difficulties
are relieved there will be created a general
discontent which will be injurious hereafter;
and it is my fervent desire for the success of
your administration which leads me to brin"
them directly to your notice. t
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
A. G. CURTIN.
Tp the, PRESIDENT,
Tho refusal ha3 been persisted in, under
an opinion of the Attorney General of the
United States, a copy of which was sent
to mi.
I recommend that the Legislature make
proper efforts to have this injustice cor
rected. The report of David Wills, Esq , pre
sident of the Soldier's National Cemetery,
at Gettysburg, herewith transmitted,
shows, the present condition of the ceme
tery. As the battle of Gettysburg result
ed in a glorious victory, and was in fact
the beginning of the end of the war, and
occurred on the soil of the Commonwealth,
I think it would be well that it should be
commemorated by an historical painting,
to be placed in the Capitol of the State ;
and t recommend that the Legislature
take measures for that purpose.
Tho State of Maryland has proposed to
her sister States that they unite with her
in establishing a cemetery for our soldiers
who fell at Antictam. I herewith trans
mit copies of the Maryland statute, and
other documcuts oc this subject, and re
commend the passage of an act heartily
accepting the proposition of 'tho State of
Maryland. All the States having prompt
ly and generously responded to our pro
position to have a cemetery at Gettysbur
it would seem proper that we should re
ciprocate, and unite in this. The duty is
made more sacred when we remember
that mure of Pennsylvania's sous fell in
that battle than those of any other State.
The report of the State Agent at Wash
ington, herewith transmitted, shows that
under his efficient management the claims
of our soldiers are promptly examined
and paid. Every effort has been made to
apprise our officers and men that their
claims will be collected by the- State
Agent" (Col. Jordan), without expense to
them ; yet it is feared that many of them
continue to employ private , claim agents,
whose fees bear heavily on the claimants.
Since my last annual message I have
expended of the secret service fund, the
sum of four thousand thre'e huudred and
thirty-three dollars and twenty cents, out
of which I have paid my personal staff
and other extraordinary expeuses, No
appropriation is required for the increase
of this fund.
. I invite your attention to the reports
of the Military Departments of the State,
to the report of the Superintendent of
Common Schools, which exhibits the pros
perous condition of our system of public
education, and to the report of the Sur
veyor General, and recommend to your
favorable consideration the many excel
lent suggestions made by that officer.
I commend to your earnest considera
tion the suggestion made by the Surgeon
General in his report, herewith transmit
ted, ou the propriety of legislation for the
protection of our people, by proper sani
tary measures, from the ravages of the
cholera, which is now approaching our
shores.
1 coaimend to the wisdom of the Leg
islature the subject of providing for tho
relict" of our maimed and wounded sol
diers. Possibly this might be done by
continuing and enlarging the acts provi
ding for boards of relief in the several
counties. I recommend the adoption by
tho Legislature of this or some other plan
for doing justice to the class of men in
question. ,
Jiy the joint resolution ofMay 16th,
1801, authorizing me to give flags to our
regiments, it was made the duty of the
Executive to receive the flags when the
regiments returned. This has not been
hitherto done, inasmuch as they have not
all yet "been mustered out. As soon as
this shall have taken place, the flags will
bo received. with appropriate ceremonies,
and I recommend that the Legislature
make provision for causing them to be
hung in the new Library.
I ' refer to the suggestion of Rrigadier
General Todd, Inspector General, on the
subject of the militia. I am not pre
pared' to make any recommendation on
this subject, us I observe with great plea
sure, that Congress is proposing to estab-
throughout
the
iish ft uniform system
United States. '
The arsenal atjlarrisburg is decaying
and unsafe. The arms ayd munitions of
the State there deposited ar-J of the value
probably of half a million of doiijJ.' I
rceommend that provision be made for re
pairing it, or that a new arseual be con
structed iu this vicinity, for the purpose
of securing their preservation.
Since my last annual message, the late
President uf the United Statci"has fallen
a victi.u to the moat foul aud basa assas
sination recorded in history. It will af
ford me pleasure and I will heartily unite
with you in any expression of indignation
at the. crime, und of appreciation of the
public, virtue and services of its vicim,
Abraham Lincoln.
My uniform course during the late war,
was to uvwid the discussion of the policy
of the Gooeral Government, while giving
a hearty support to. the National authori
ties iu all thiir measures to suppress the
rebellion. I 6liall continue to pursue the
same course during the embarrassments
necessaiily connected with the entire res
toration of the country. The principles
expressed iu the message of the President,
at the .commencement of the session of
Congresj, will receive rny cordial support.
Duriug the last five years the people of
this State have suffered deeply from the
calamities of war. Thousands of her men
have been felain, and others maimed and
broken.' Almost every family have been
ptrickeu, and everywhere here are widows
aud orphans, many of them helpless and
in poverty. Jt is. a subject of 6injere con
gratulation, that peace ha-l M last returned.
I am not aware of. the existence of any
difficulty with any other nations tihich
may not be amicably adjusted, and there
fore venture to express the hope that
long years of tranauilitv and hnrtninva
w a wf r r
are before us.
A. G. CURTIN.
Tbe Constitutional Amendment
- Fixing- tlie Basis of Represen
It will be recollected that some days
since the House of Representatives re
ferred to the Committee on Reconstruc
tion a resolution providing for an amend
ment to the Constitution fixing the" basis
of representation on the actual voters in
each State. Hon. Thaddeus Stevens,
chairman of the committee, on Thursday
reported back the resolution, after the
clause referring to direst taxation had
been stricken out, the committee being of
opinion that the point could be left for
the amendment of the House.
The following is tho shape. of the reso
lution as it was reported io the House :
" Resolved, By the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States
of America assembled, two-thirds of both
Houses concurring, that the following
article bo proposed to the Legislatures of
the several States as an amendment to the
Constitution of the United States, which,
when ratified by thrceSfburtbs of said
Legislatures, "shall be valid a part of jszyd
Constitution, vis: Representatives shall
be apportioned among the several States
which may be included within this Union
according to their respective numbers,
CDunting the whole number of personj in
each State excluding Indian3 not taxed;'
provided that whenever the elective fran
ch ise shall be denied or abridged in any
State on account of rape or color, all per
sons therein of such race or color shall
be excluded from the basis of representa
tion." " 1
After a full and fair discussion of "this
resolution, in which the prominent men
of both parties freely engaged,' it was
adopted by a vote of 120 to 40, more
than two-thirds - of the House. Thurso
far as the action of the House is concern
ed, settles the basis of reconstruction
precisely on the principle suggested by
the President of the United States, while
it fixes ou a solid foundation and in good
faith, the relations of a cordial under
standing between Andrew Johnson and
tho Representatives of the , loyal men of
the land. "
There is no doubt that the Senate will
. .ft . n . ' -
concur in tne action ot tne House, the
spirit of the majority in the Senate is in
harmony with the dominant members of
the House, and we firmly believe that the
States of the Union, by a vote as decisive
as that of Congress will ratify this amend
ment, when it is referred to the Legisla
tures thereof. The Union leaders of the
country can now go before the people in
the coming election with an ' issue on
which there will be no failure, and with
arguments for the justice joftheir cause,
to which there can be no effective Vplies
made. ' "'
Protection of Civil Rights. -The
following important bill, guaranteeing
protection of civil rights to all citizenpf
the United States, was taken up in the
Senate on Friday,' and passed by a vote
of 33 to 12 : .
: That all persons born in the United
States not hubject'to any oreign power,
excluding Indians hot taxed, are hereby
declared to be citizens of the Uuited States
without any distinction of color, and there
shall be no discrimination iu civil rights
or immunities among the inhabitants. of
any State or Territory of the United States
on account of race, color or previous con
dition of Slavery ; but the inhabitants of
every race and color, without regard to
previous condition of Slavery or involuo
tary servitude, except as- a punishment for
crime whereof the party shall havo been
duly convicted, shall have the same right
to make and enforce, contract, sell, be
parties, and give evidence, to inherit, pur
chase, lease, sell, hold and convey real
and personal property, and to have, full
and equal benefit of all laws and proceed-,
ings for the security of person and pro
pert, and shall be subject to like punish
ment, pains and penalties, and to none
other; any liw, statute, ordinance, regu
lation or eusioui to tho contrary notwith
standing." :
The remaining sections provide for
penalties and judicial proceedings. This
bill expressly recognizes tho colored
natives of this country as citizens of the
United States, and, as such, guarantees
to them every civil right, equally with
pther citizens, allowing no State or other
local authority to oppress or degrade
theni, or in any rnanner subject them to
disabilities or indignitic?- la short, this
bill fulfills the pledges given in -President
Lincoln's two Proclamations of Freedom,
and in the passage of the Constitutional
Amendment of last Session. The vote
was very full, and the majority iuo de
cisive. A Philadelphia brush gives us
this picture: "At the beginning of the
war a modest lieutenant in a garrison at
tbe extreme northwest boundary of the
nation, on the Columbia river, declared
that, if a chance should be offered him,
ho '.vould strive hard to gain a captaiu's
commission. Fate did not at first seem
propitious co him,. Until long after the
war was in progress had no chance to
rise, and was still a lieutenant. But op
portunity came at last, and with great ra
pidity that young man rose to be a Colonel,
Brigadier-General and Major General of
Volunteers, and Brigadier General and
Major General in ; the Rogulat Army.
The whole country delights to honor him
for his daring, science, bravery and patri
otism, and his name is Philip II, Sheri
dan." : ' .

TlieGovemor's Message.
Two fact3 are graphically and glorious
ly set forth by Gov. Curtin in his last an
nual message, namely, our inexhaustible
resources financially, and indomitable en
ergy patriotically. Im the usual brief
reference of the message to our financial
coudition, we have the almost astounding
fact, that since I860 the condition of the
treasury has been improved to the amount
ot 52,DDD,57y 02. During the rebellion.
the State Treasury has been in the control
of the Republican party three out of the
four years of that struggle. We do uot
mean to imply by this that the opoosition
party is dishonest, but we do insist on the
right ot claiming the credit of these re
sults as being due to the prudence and
the wisdom of Republican financiering.
The necessity of extraordinary expendi-
turesdunng the war tested the capacity
of the treasury to its utmost. Hon. Henry
D. Moore was the first treasurer to meet
the pressure: he was followed by William
D. M'Grath, who was elected by the op-
position, ana wno, singular to relate, in
stead of zealously guarding the resources
of tho people, gave our British ancient
foes the advantage of a technicality by
which the State was compelled to pay,
instead of six per cent, interest on her
bonds held in Europe, at least at the usu
rous rate of nine per cent! This fact
evidences who is entitled to the credit of
the improved condition of the treasury.
Gov. Ctirtin's recommendations concern
ing other features of the finances, are
eminently sound and just, particularly,
those relating to the appropriation of mo
ney for the support of local charities.
With a fey exceptions, such as for Insti
tutes for the Deaf and Dumb. Houses of
Refuge, Blind and Lunatio Asylums, he
opposes these appropriations, and justly
recommends that they cease. He also
strongly urges the Legislature only to
make appropriation for specific objects
the direct object of such appropriation to
be named. If these recommendations are
complied with, a reductiou of taxation
can be mado by the present Legislature.
But if the reckless waste of the public
revenues is to be persisted in by a con
tinuation of the -same system, taxation
cannot be reduced. This is plain to' all
who understand the financial condition of
the Commonwealth.
Our military history for the last four
years, as it is briefly recorded in this mes
sage,, can only be regarded as marvellous.
Gov. Curtin starts with the first call of
troops for the three months' service, and
thence tracing the history of the conflict
through all its dangers and glories, he
shows that Pennsylvania contributed to
the volunteer army tho gigantic force of
three hundred and sixty-tico thousand two
hundred and eighty-four men. This num
ber is exclusively of those contributed to
the regular army, the marine and the
naval service. Wherever our flag was
borne in the West ou the sea-coast
in the Gulf on the mountain top above
the clouds over swamps and morasses
everywhere at the influence of the for
tunes of war, and in the mid-it of danger
and death, the sons of Pennsylvania nobly
and gallantly performed their duty.
While these facts go to swell the glory of
the State, it is also' established by tbe
message that Pennsylvania sent for
ward the first troops which reached
Washington at the first signal of the
alarm for the safety of the National Capi
tal. The spirit which animated cur peo
ple from the first inspired aiid invigorated
them to the last.
:We desire to refer only to these two
tacts, the wonderful financial results of
four years of. war, with the stupendous
achievements of a military character,
placed on tbe record by the same people
in the same period. They are gracefully
and grandly elaborated in the message,
and while that document contains other
facts of importance, those to which we
refer will enable tbe reader to realize the
ability with which the State Government
was directed during tho crisis of war, and
serve to render the people aud the Gov
ernment of the State of Pennsylvania
forever famous on the pages of the Na
tion's h-iatory .-lIarrisburg Tellerfraph.
