-THE GOVERNOR'S 4,SSAGE.
We invite the special attention pf our
readers'to the Fourth Annual Message
of Governor Geary,. which we ,furnish
them to"-day in our supplement. It is a
very well considered and exhaustive
State, paper, and the views and recent
, mendations contained will meet the
hearty approval of the people. em
braces the optics field on which the Leg . -
islature will be called to act, and those
who desire -to make themselves familiar
with the workings of the State got;ein
' ment ma,,y study thert.lesstige with profit.
'The Governor recornmeudi the sale of
the bonds now held by the Sinking Fund
Conunissioners L and the application of
the proceeds to•the payment of the State
debt maturing within the next year.
With tide' recommendation the people
will conere heartily.. The presence of
nine and one-half millions of securities is
too-strong a temptation for the
politi
clans of the State, and the sooner this
amotint can be credited on the debt the
better it will be for all. * After this pay
ment, the balance of debt remaining is
about twenty-one millions, which, with
the present revenues and expenditures,
could be paid ip about eight 'years. 'lt
is, hoWever, considered a wiser policy to
reduce the payment of the debt to a mil
lion of dollars yearly, and to diminish
the' taxation now resting-On manufactur
ing, railroad and mining interests cor
respondingly.
The necessity of Constitutional reform
is strongly advocated. Minority repre
sentation, an increase of the number of
members Of the tiencral Assembly, the
____election-of 7 State-Taoasurer,-Superintend
ent of C r Ommon Schools, and the creation
of the Wee of Lieutenant Governor are
among the principal changes suggested.
The Legislature is earnestly recom
mended-to make provision for the calling
of a Constitutional Convention.
The Governor also recommends the
adoption of the Civil Code, the continua
tion of liberal support to the common
schoc4s and 'the soldiers' orphans, and
the encouraement of military organiza
tion and discipline among the
_people.
A new geological survey of -the State is
' regarded as of great impori anee, anti re-'1
mining immediate attention. The
im
portance of collecting statistical informa
tion concerning the resources, and the
treofivenience that arises constantly fritin '
the wareAlmilils.forcibly set
The frongiy enforces the

1 • ' oil to
.American in
_dustry, to +' feuas the repeal of the
duty ditsttf-til itcl, and all other
taxation ui " mine laws, except
on lintries: Whisky, and tobacco. The
introthiction of "Ooolio"' or "contract
labor" likleploietivas ono of the greatest
evils that can 'halal the toiling millions
----of- our country, and, restrictive laws
against the importation of this kind of
labor should be enacted without delay.
The Message will, doubtlesS,
,be re
tieived with MITI' throughtiat=the,„ State,
and will commend itself to the great
mass of the people. It is a platform on
which the Republican party in the State
may stand With the certainty that the
people trill sustain - K.7 We trust_ the
Legislature may give its 'recommenda
tions the hearty support to which they
iire entitled.
WEER before laSt the New York Sim
published a communication from its
-Washington correspondent, giving an ac
(quint of some very outAgeons behavior
on the Part of the Hon. It. J. Haldeman,
member of Congress from this District.
Mr. Haldeman is charged with having be
haved very disgracefully on the ilocir of
the House during a session, and much
more disgracefully and brutally at his
hotel a short time afterwards. We do
not propose to give the• details of the
occurrence as they were published, as
they can servo no good puilpose,. and
may possibly have been exaggerated.
We have, as yet, however, seen no pub•
lie denial. of the charges made, and if.
they are correct but in the main, we hold
it to be the duty of the House to make a
vacancy in the Fifteenth District., by the
immediate expulsion of Mr. Haldeman,
unless it can be made ortain that his
conduct in the future will not be a stigma
on the District which he represents.
We hope our Republican friends, who
contributed directly or indirectly to re
elect Mr. Haldeman; by an increased
majority, may now see the great practi
cal
good they have accomplished in the
endorsement of such a public officer, and
profit by the lesson. The Democrats,
also, who denounced 'him so furiously,
driring the campaign, and t h an allowed
themselves to be whipped into his sup
,c\
port. at the clect'lin, have the great
'satisfaction of see'ug their Representa
tivemake good their worst Predictions
concerning Vm, and :crow that he holds
the place a lietter Dian should have held,
t h rough' their unmanly and contemptible
submission to the triclui of the trading
politcians of their party.

great tax case of the Common
wcalth,'vs. Credit Mobilior of America,
was decided,htst week by a verdict in
fitvor.of the 'Commonwealth for $630,-

and compels the speculators who bought
up that corporation to pay the taxes that
fairly accrued to.thi3 State on the 'profits
of their speculations. Groat credit is duo

Treasury, where it will wipe out a con

WE have heard for tho last seven years,

Merits.
THE LEGISLATURE
• The Legislature of 1871 convened and
organized on Thesday. The preeeedings
thus far, of course, amount to nothing,
nor will they effect anything ofi
anco for a_ month to come. .. , There is,
however, more- impoktant labor in.
store for our Legislature than has fallen'
to the lot of any session for many yeiirs,
There is a very wide-spread convic
tion among the best men of both:parties,
throughout the State, that the present
Constitution requires revision to a
greater degree than can be attained by
amendment—'rho - electionan of the
State Treasurer by the people, tiro cur:
tailment of local and special legislation,
and the proper representation of minori
ties 'ate subjects on which nearly all
right thinking men have reached the
same conclusions. It is needles 6 to, dis
cuss them longer._ :The Legislatite
should provide for the calling of a con-
vention to revise the Constitution, and
thus allow the people an eipression . of
their will on these important questions.
The apportionment of the State into'
Legislative and Congressional districts
is also a work of great importance, and
although the two branches of the Legis:
laturo are controlled by different political
parties, this labor should not be shirked
or postponed: The apportionments
should be made with a view to give the
['direst representation to both parties pos
sible, but it should not be so arranged that
any corrupt combination of the trading
l i i politicians of both parties, could place the.
control of either of both branches of the
Legislature in the hands of the minority
party when desired.. If the State
is Democratic on the popular vote, it is
right and fair that that party should
control the Legislature. But it is absurd
that there should be such an arrange
.,,ent oral—affc‘v
mem lie districts ACM the
changing of n single district to lake the
control of the Legislature from the
party that'll - ifs a majority on the popular
vote.- It is impossible to guard against an
occasional misfortune of this kind, but
care should he taken to guard against its
frequent occurrence. Whilst no attempt
should be made-to prevent the minority,
at the time the apportionment is made,
from having its just representation. care
should be exercised that this minority
should not be given a majority in repre
sentation. It is a subject which will
give rice to much scheming. and in
triguing, and much difficulty will arise'
from the ellfirts of ambitious gentlemen
\ rho need seine special districting tO get
them into political position.
The consideration and adoption of the
report of the Commissioners to revise
the civil code is also a work' - bfmuch
labor and responsibility. As it re:Models
every gen6ral law in the State, and
introduces many new and important
features, it will require t ‘ if the Legislut ore
much care and' thought in its considera
tion The necessity for a revision Of
our civil code is apparent to all. The
work of the .Commissioners has been
pm formed wkth great care add ,
djs
erinunation, and it now becomes UM
duty of the le - gislatiire to adopt it with
whatever alterations, their judgment
may dictate.
We are free to 'say, that judging
from former experience, there is some
fear, that_ juantiant
mos may not receive the attention which
is due the . m. The Constitutional con
vention will most likely be ordered.
The apportionments, however, may be
neglected, under the very convenient ex
cuse that the Honses could not 'agree.
The civil cede also stands a good many
chances of being lost sight of among the
multitude of private bills and jobs that
will be thrust into the Legislature at a
very early date. We hope furs labori
ous and conscientious performance of the
public duties of the Legislature during'
its present session, but we would nokun
dertake to guarantee anything of irlie"
kind.
THOSE patriotic Southern "Demo
crats, who sewed their country under
the Aonfedcrate flag during the
late war have another scheme
for the promotion of the public
good. The Montgomery Adrer pre
dicts that the time is fast approaching,
when the south and West, with the
Middle States, shall assume the' govern
ment of the country, " and New England,
if it shall dare to show its radiaat head
shall lie put to the edge of the sword with
out compunc lions." This is very brave,
very patriotic, and very much like what
we generally hear from the gentlemen of
that school. We had supposed that the
severe lesson of the 'rebellion had not
been entirely wasted on the South, but if
this is a specimen of their improved
ideas, they must learn very slow ly indeed.
Weimagine, however, that New England
will not put herself on a war footing on
account of thispreat.

HARRISBURG LETTER
ITAltnlsßunn„Taimary 13, 1871
I`lie session of 'lB7l approaches with
the ordinary symptoms. Senators and
members, lobbyisas and place-mutters
swarm to the Capital. Thehotel.s which
have been almost deserted for the past
six months, ine now , filled to ov, r
flowing, witirthmusual crowd that con
gregates here during the winter. And
few come without bus . he s. It may be
that among, the members there are some
on wlioni time hangs heavily, but these
ere very decided exceptions to the gen--
eralrule. Moir of hose whoattahl
ladle honor, have a firm belief that
they ;ire destined to play an important
part in the affairs of the State or Nation
fur the remainder of their natural lives.
They lolow, certainly,. that the vast ma:
jority of their predeccssorWhiri,6 2- falf§cd'
into obscurity at the - end of their second
short winter; and_mallx.44l them at
the end of their first, but each newly
made lawgiver is fully convinced that
this has'been owing to some sin of omis
sion 01' corn mission at their part which
he is wise enough, and great enough to
avoid, Filled with this idea, Mid stimu
lated by.thelope of advancement, each
ambitious gentleman vigorously plays
-his.gamti. 'He forms aermaintances'aes: -
tivelk. 'He attends caucuses and COM
raittpo meetings religiously. He writes
many letters, and greatly burthens the=
mails by the distribution of Legislative
and Execativl documents. Quite a good
many becomeorators, and those who do
not utquire this accomplishment, do a
large anthunt of routine duty in
introdueing bills, obje6ting others off the
calendars, making motions to ad
journ.
Then there are many who are
quite wonderful on corPOrations. 13anks,,
improvement companies, railroads,
plank roads, are continually in their
mind's eye, and the number of these cor
porations that are created annually, as
well as those Which are conceived, bu t
not matured, fully Shows how industri
ous and persevering these active gentle
men are. The lobbyists, the gentlemen
who. want to be clerks, door keepers,
pastel's and folders, are also full of em
ployment, at . least until their positions
are secure. If they work as assiduously
in their offices as they do to get them,
assuredly the State should not grudge
their salaries, fur they dun them.
But to the doingstf our sulons up to
this time. Monday and Monday evening
were devoted to caucusing, and shaping
up matters preparatory to an organiza
tion. The work of this matter fell on
the Itepubli'Tns in the Douse, and on
Democrats in , the Senate. A minority
party has never any trouble in a caucus,
but as the' action of the caucus of the
majority party usually controls - every
thing, it is regarded with 'great interest,
:u 1 most generally gets up a late
a runt of squabbling among the mem
,,dl•s who are or ought to be patriots
with but a single mind.

a few moments the ceremony Was over,
and these thirty-three were made, one
flesh, and Thompson Dunbar and his
bride retreated down the aisle in single
file and 'went to their humble Homo in
nine carriages. _ But unalloyed bliss was,
not to bo the portion of Thompson and
his numerous bride, He was a sailor ;
and after lingering for a few days he
kissed Mrs. Dunbar good-bye nud weep

and went to rove on-the billows of the
Pacific Ocean. One night there was a
fearful tempest ; and the gallant bark,
after a prolonged contest with the ele
ments, sank to rise no more. All on
board.were lost but Thompson Dunbar.
This intrepid tar lashed hiinself securely
to the binnacle, and so sustained him
self in the seething foam fob two days.
At the end of that time he was cast
ashore upon- -a- desert island which wits
only nine feet long by six feet: wide.
Upon landing, Mr. -Dunbar surroyed.the
rock ; and after drafting a map of it, ho
took possession of it in the name of the
United States, and manufactured a flag

flannel shirt, which ho hoisted on 'the •

when they came around by reading the
Declaration of Independence, and sing
ing thcStar.:§pangled_Banner,____Thus

doing all he could to be comfortable.
But ho never ceased to mourn his sepa
ration front his wife, and long to clasp
her, one after another, to his bosom,
Meantime, how did the bear the afflic
tion which had befallen her ? For the
first two or three years Mrs. Dunbar
would go up st evening and stand all at
once at each of the
.thirty-two , windows
and gaze out towards the - oce - att, strain

Mrs. Dunbar had a cataract) to catch a
glimpse of her Thompson. But Thump
,sun did not coins ; and as a feeling of
sadness stole over'her soul, Mrs. Dddbar
would bow her heads 'over the infants in
her arms and weep, while she - sang thirty-.
two lullabys,, and_ accused.. some other
one of her friends of singing flat, and of
-notltacpiqg time. But at last she gave
up all .1144 -of--ThompsOn's return, add
agreed that he mast be dead. So, as
anon - as it was known she had, made up

Jones had a revelation that he - must
marry Duithar's widow. Son es had loved
her—the whole- of her—when she was

his suit again. Often be would take her
by as many of her little hands as he could
conveniently hold, and would stroll with
her-into some quiet) grassy-dell, And she
would arrange herself around in a circle
by the side of some babbling_ brook,
while he sa:t, in the centre, and whispered
soft words of love ,to her, and walked
around and pressed each of her hands,-
and lot the love-light of his eyes shine
on her faces and warm the flickering
flame in her hearts.
At last, baying give' ul; all hope of
ever seeing her dear Thompson; Mrs.
Dunbar, by a vote of 27 to 4—the woman.
with the cataract not voting—consented
to become the wife of Ferguson Jones.
An interval of ten years elapses be

which is to come. We will go in and

better to wait until the ten years arc up

Thompson Dunbar, at the end of his
fifteenth year on- the island, was rescued
by a boat club which was passing by on
its way to a regatta. Ile went home to
Utah, and marched up the hill to his
house, in the evening, wondered which

not to snake the others jealous and sacri

Would peep in before ho presentee him

eyes ! There be saw his wife sitting np
against the wall on all four sides of the
room, and a few of her gathered around
the . centie-table knitting. And Ferguson
Jones, his old rival, occupied the arm
chair and hold six infants on each knee,
while he tried to misuse one hundred and
thirty-eight other children who were play
ing on the floor, and to rock seven cradles
with his toes and a. coupling.machine of
his own invention.
Truly it was a lovely domestic -z econO 7 -
that affectionate little family collected

when Thompson Dunbar saw it, liernit:'

But Thompson made up his mind not
to disturb the serenity of that hotise

SINOULAIi FATALITY.—In West Penns_
boroughtownship 'the Dunlap family
have been afflicted with some singular
disease, which medical treatment does
not seem to relieve. Some two weeks
since, Miss Nancy Dunlap was taken
sick, and died in a few days. In the
meantime Mrs Phillips, of Illinois, a
relative and staying with ^ the family,
took sick on the day of the first funeral.
Mrs Julia Dunlap, Wife of William
Dunlap also, took sick, and in a few
days both wore taken to the grave in one
funeral procession. About ,the same
time, Mrs Bell, of Middlesex township, a
sister of the family, being there took
sick, and in a few days died:, Mr.
William DUnlap, and Mr. MeChty,
brother-in-law, who hail been attending
these people during their sickness, are.
now prostrated with the same disease,
and fears are entertained that Mi. D.
may not recover.
SOClABLR.—lnvitations haring been
issued for a hop at the Good Will Hall,
on last Thursday evening, quits a large
party of ladies and gentlemen responded,
eager foi delightful music aLd

half-past eight, under the direction of
Mr. J. Spangler, and was continued
until the chanticleer greeted the morning
star. All the participants declare the
occasion to have been a most enjoyable
ono, and truly " a sociable evening."
The sentiment is also expressed that a
short walk hi:Mie from the hall by moon
light is preferable to a dreary drive to
town from a distant hotel in the country.
The "spread" is, as well, acknewledged
to be the proper style of refreshment for
the occasion. It has been intimated that.
as the affair was confessedly a success,
they entertain designs of an early repeti
tion, and perhaps will continue them
fortnightly during the winter. Our town
has been sometimes accused of a lack of
sociability, but a few such plehsant
