But it is some consolii lion for us to reflect, that these difficulties are the bitter frnits, so far as Pennsylvania is concerned, of the rash and legislation of a single year,.aml that none of the responsibility rests upon us. For upwards of ten years Pennsylvania had been gradu a fly.im pros 'her con di t i on , and ,enjnying all the advantages. that can arise from "a substantial currency, and the entire confidence of all parts of the world. At an unfortunate period, the banking espi• whieli had been, during this flourishing season, abon(twenty •ntihinua of dollari, was increased to near sixty ; and, as one of the utmost I tal consequences, many un wise and luip'elitic pUbLio.LimprOvements ,, undertaken,—rorporationscreated for pur poses far beyond their-means-to accom plish,—individiVls contracted responsibili ties ontLentered into speculations, which they weretotally..u_nable to.bring to a sue, cessful close and finally to•rendei the MAINBM'ZI DT Aldr.t.l.A heart as true as steel; MESSAGE, I can myself see no just.ground for that despendeney .which seems td pervade, so generally, the minds of the people.

If there be any at our citizens, who honestly believe, that Pennsylvania will i; prove unable to.perforin - all her enaage ments,tl,ey will be found to be neither Very I . deep reasoners; nor very accurately ac- , (maimed with the abundance and nature'of her resources: If there be atiyof her citi zens, who .. , think that she will prove. faith less and unwilling to discharge her obliga;. xanY on the ioiis, We way safely say, they knoW little of her true character, and meet with no encouiagement, or favor, from any ,consid erable portion of the community.
