EDITOR :—Tho financial affairti 'of our State have now reached a crisis which demands the serious flttention of the people of Penn sylvania. The construction of public works involved the State in a heavy debt. The hope has long since been abandoned that the rev.. nue derived from the , works would pay even the interest on the nioney invested; and al though the necessity of eventually paying off the principal by direct taxation has for years been apparent, yet no remedies have been applied, and the debt has gone on increasing until it now amounts to over forty millions of dollars. It advanced in adverse tithes; when the whole business of the country was pros trated; and now when every branch of industry is flourishing; when the gold of California is pouring by the ship load into the country, in the midst of a general prosperity, heretofore unequalled in the western world, the State debt is still increasing, and the old Keystone keeps plunging deeper and deeper into debt and difficulties.. Business men who becarne involved during previous years, taking silvan tap of 'the general prosperity are extricating themselves from their former liabilities, lu other States, old bonds are being cancelled and paid off, and Pennsylvania alone affords the melancholy exception of a great State whose financial embarassments are yearly growing worse and worse. Possessing natural advantages unequalled in any land on the face of the earth, a healthy climate—a fertile soil—abundance of pure water—immense deposits of limestone—build. ing stone—iron ore—bituminous and anthra cite coal—vast forests of timber—numCrous navigable streams—occupying a commanding_ position—bordering upon the &rant lakes—the inland seas of America, plac&rat the head of navigation of the valley of the Mississippi, her seaboard receiving the commerce of Eu rope. and Asia, inhabited by a population,_ unsurpassed for industry,, energy and enter prise, why is it that Pennsylvania wearing the fetters of the money lender, continues in hope loss bondage? Tlto honor of her citizens has already been assailed, and- on the first great pressure in the money market, notwithstand ing all their sacrifices, Pennsylvanians may again be stigmatized throughout the world as repudiators and bankrupts. The amount of taxes raised in •this_State for the last .twenty years has been enormous, and it mismanage ment and mel administration continues as heretofore, it will be impossible to estimate the burdens that twenty years, hence will be imposed upon our citizens. Patiently and without a murmur have the annual stipends been paid, long and anxiously have our honest farmers looked for some diminution of the State debt, for some streak of light, however faint, on the dark horilon. But they have looked in vain—the clouds have grown darker and more gloomy—and while our farmers aro now paying a larger tax than is paid in some of the -European States, and although tho amount paid by many of them yearly, would purchase a small farm in the west, yet they would cheerfully make any additional efforts if they could but 'see nay• prospect of the final extinguishment of the State debt. In Europe : there is n class of politicians who advocate a national debt as a national No avowed specimens of Ode class. blosAing. havo yet appeared in America, but they tvil show themselves in duo time. When an in dividual becomes involved ho is at the mercy of his creditors; when a State is financially embarassed its finances and credit are con- rolled by monied men and corporations fortunate in that nation whose destinies are in the - hands - of - brokers and - bankers, and -chose legislation is controlled by such influence! A groat public debt should be the dread and terror of a free people. They can 'defend themaolvea from enemies without and traitors within, but taxation will break down the en efgioe and destroy and subdue the nobles people on the face of iho - earth. It must be admitted that THE ADUINIS• TRATION OP GOVERNOR BIGLEIt HAS PROVED A FAILURE. The ship of State is still drifting bofOre the same unpropitious gales as formerly; he has not proved limed the pilot to weather the storm." Prop every indication rue STATE DEBT WILL 111 INCREASED 1:110M THREE TO PIPE MILLIONS or DOLLARS DURING 1115 TERN;, a mammoth ap propriation bill of over fivo millions of dollars passed the last Legislators, and received the Executive sanction. A diminution of the State debt was the platform on which Gov. Biliter stood Hundreds of Westmore before his eleotion and farmers heard hie financial. views, and hearing they bad faith in him BEEN DECEIVED. If a man deceives us smoo, it is hie fault; ir ;twice, it is our own To tho farmers of Westmoreland 'connt.y the State• debt is now the GREAT QUESTION. Thoy have tri faith in the Demi:tortilla profes sions of any Governor whose reedininendations and acquiesconoes 'cause an increase of the State debt in time of peace. In 1837, by a reOrt of the State Treasurer tho public debeef Pennsylvania wds $24,731,- 313. The State then held the following public property, viz Bank Stook, Turnpike and Bridge Stook, Navigation Stook, • Malanoo in the Treasury let May, 1837; Estimated amount 4 money due on publio lauded $8,020,002 Of those resources at least ono half wore oquivalput to sash. , Tho State Debt may lio ostimatbd in 1887 at no greater_ sum than $21,000,000. In 1853, tho debt is near $42,- 000,000. Has iho debt increased faecal less taxes tiro paid? Previous to 1840 k the ount of Stato.taxmi t6lteeted from this eaunty wore Tory small. In 1842, 1843 and 1844, l.Vcstmore, land county State tax duplioatos amounted to, $81,400. 1861,'521n and 'SJ3, the State tax duplionto in the same county amounted to over.s7B,ooo —125 per cent -since 1844—a corresponding ' increase has - taken place in other counties. Thus taxation increases, and the public debt, instead, of being in part liquidated, grows, larger. °Evan the selling of the good dividend, paying stooks the Commonwealth held, only afforded a temporary relief, 11`he tide delayed for a moment burst onward with theigroator rapidity, and although the State has disposed of the resources she held in 1837, and ipuilenSe sumo' have since ;then been levied from,: the people, yet what great necessary , enduring publio imp?ovement has been constructed since 1837 ? What have we to show for Our vast expenditures? In all quarters is distrust, dissatisfaotion and want of confidence, Tho' present Canal Board sustain to the letter the . reputation of that body—n reputation um olipoti until: the late dovelopements of tho doings of the New York Aldermen.

The Reading Adler—the Berke county Locofoco biblo---" acknowledges thecorn " in the fol lowing unmistakeable words:__. The Governor hoslately made n loan of a Philadelphia Bank of $.17-5,000, at six per cent., while a loan of SFOO,OOO leas made to complete the North Branch Canal a year ago. Thus we are on a fair way to make our State debt greater than it has beett-for On years." The people cannot help seeing the prospects of an overwhelming debt which aro before. them if the present dominant party be retained in power. GREAT ARIIEST or COUNTERFEITERS.—At Cincinnatti, on the 26th ult , Samuel D. Town er, Milton Parker, Lewis. Dolman, Joseph Bean, William APGeary, and Quincy Ilurschey, were arrested, charged with counterfeiting. A quantity of counterfeit money in sheets, but not signed, was found. The,bills wore on the Ohio State Stook, Miami Valley Bank of Day ' ton, of the denomination of cues, threes, fives, and tens, to the amount of several hundred - dollars. After the arrests hiid been made, the premises of the counterfeiters wore carefully searched. In the dwelling was found a box containing five gold watches, and from twenty to thirty gold rings, In a chicken coop some thing like forty thousand dollars in counterfeit .notes of the Ohio State Stoelf,'Miami Valley Bank of Dayton, and .the Fairfield, Connecti cut, county Bank, were discovered, nearly till ' signed, cut, and done up in thousand dollar packages, ready for distribution. The parties accused were brought before the Mayor; who, without hearing testimony, committed them-to jail in default of ten thousand dollarti 'each, to appear for examination before him. A MURDERER BURNED AT TILE STARE.-A negro man, bolongiog to H. France, Pettis county, Missouri, was burned at the stake, on the 13th inst., for murdering the wife of John Rains, who resided in the same neighborhood.' The cirolmstances attending this murder ap pear to be, that while Mr. Rains was absent l at meeting on Sunday, the 3d inst., the negro repaired to his hcuso for the diabolical pur pose—as he confessed—of commiting a rape on the person ,of Mrs. Rains.' The conse quence was that this lady was brutally mur dered with a club. The negro then Attempted to r murder her eldest boy, and fancied ho had done so, for fear of being told on. He next took the two younger children and throw them in a fence earner, brushing them considerably, When Rain2eturned home, ho found his wife dead, and his eldest son so badly hurt that it was thought that ho could not recover; but he distinctly told his father who committed the outrage. 6 Toe negro was immediately ap prehended; and after obtaining a full confee• Sion of his guilt, the citizens of the place burned him at the stake. The negro at first hinted that his young master instigated him to the act. Tho young mister was taken into custody ; but the negro afterwards exculpating him of the charge, and confessing that the outrage grew out of his intention to commit a rape, the youug man was released. had it been a white man instead of a negro who perpetrated this tnost horrible deed, there is no doubt but what he would have shared a similar-fate. The citizens of Pettis county, having some suspicion'that the negro was instigated to do the deed hp his master, have since held a meet ing, •and passed resolutions commanding him and his family to remove from tho county within ten, days, and from the State withih thirty days. THEY HAVE Ifonuintai !—Two men in Illinois, near La -0311; came to a terrible death last wool:. A companion had stolen.a bottle of liquor, as ho supposed, which he handed to them for a treat.

It turned out to ho nitric acid, dittited in rain Water, said to have been procured for purposes of galvanizing. But a moment elapsed before they fell to the earth overwhelmed with the most intense and excruciating pain.

We do not mean merely those Whose actual tangible pilferlngs on the road is matter of public notoriety.

The entire management of the road must be changed!" LATER PROM EUROPE . The • steamer Asia arrived at New York, brings Liverpool dates of the 10th instant.
