The Insane Asylum, as well as the other
charitable institutions in which the State is di
rectly interested, are in a prosperous condition.
The kindly regards of the Assembly are solicited
for these institutions.
It is a pleasant reflection now, and will be a
grateful reminiscence hereafter, that to the pro
motion of all these interests, the administration
of public affairs, while under my control, has
faithfully directed its labors. It is to be regret
ted that more was not accomplished, but it is
still encouraging to know that so much of prac
tical good has been done.
In the enactment of the revenue laws of the
National Government, much injury has resulted
to many of the industrial interests of this State.
Their alteration in such manner as will protect
those interests, all must earnestly desire. I
have on former occasions most fully expressed
my views on this subject, and have urged upon
the Legislature the propriety of such action as
would influence favorably the National Congress.
The great manufacturing, mining, and agricul
tural interests of Pennsylvania require and de
mand a change of the present system of tariff
laws. The ill success attending former efforts,
furnishes no excuse for an omission again to call
attention to the subject. In the confederacy of
States, we hold an important position. Penn

Address delivered by Mr. Andrew Williams, in
San Francisco, on the evening of the 14th No

Agricultural and Mineral Fair. The statements,
astonishing as they arc, may be relied upon as
strictly true, and will give some idea of the ag

distance, waving with ich harvests of oats, the

of the red-wood on the banks of the Trinity and
Shasta rivers, 08 feet in circumference; hollow
ones, whose cavity ha3 sheltered sixteen men
and twenty mules for the night; pines crowning
the dizzy peaks of the Sierra Nevcda, 3S0 feet
in height ; the first 250 feet without a branch or
limb an extent of growth so far beyond the
ordinary size, as to 6eem almost incredible, but
well known, and seen and verified by the uniform
and concurrent testimony of many whom I see
sitting around me.
"On land owned and cultivated by Mr. James
Williams, la ,the county of Santa Cruz, an onion
grew to the enormous weight of 21 pounds; on
this same land a turnip was grown which equalled
exactly in size the head of a flour barrel. On
land owned and cultivated by Thomas Follcn, a
cabbage grew measured, while growing, 13 feet
G in-.hes around its body. The various cereal
grains grow to a height of from six to twelve
feet. One red-wood tree in the Valley, known
as Fremont's tree, measures over fifty feet in
circumference, and is nearly 300 feet high. Ad
ded to these astonishing productions are a beet
grown by Mr. Isaac Brannan, at San Jose,
weighing C3 pounds ; carrots three feet in length,
weighing 40 pounds. At Stockton, a turnip
weighing 100 pounds. In the latter city, at a
dinner party for twelve persons, of a single po
tato larger than the size of an ordinary hat, all
partook, leaving at least the half untouched.

KOSSUTH'S LAST APPEAR tAX'S
Recrptwn of th Ladies Farewell Speech cf ts
-.Speech of Hon. Mr. Uancroj
and Dr. TyingOde by Rev. Mr. Tapp-an.
Long before the hour appointed frthe rerpn.
tion of the Ladies by the Hungarian chief at
Metropolitan Hall, the avenues leading ta tht
magnificent saloon were densely crowded bv
fashiodable assemblage, who slowly wound their
way into the beautifully decorated Hall. Tha
festive occasion being got up essentially for the
purpose of giving the gentler sex an opportunity
of judging of the merits of Kossuth, it need
hardly be said, that they composed by far tha
greater part of the company, and to their credit
we may add that they exhibited the same, if not
a greater enthusiasm, than had been displayed
by their leige lords on so many former occasions.
Soon, the large Hall was filled to suffocation,
with the exception of the gallery, where a good
many more might have found room. When the
company were seated the room presented a most
brilliant appearance, partly from the adding of
many beautiful decorations to those of the pre
vious evening, but principally from the aulienco
itself, composed a it was of the fairest of tha
land.
At a quarter past two o'clock Gov. Kossuth
appeared through the middle stage door, accom
panied by his wife, Count and Countess Tulsky,
and many of his suit. His entrance was the
signal for the whole audience to rise and cheer
in a manner which showed how much they ad
mired the man who had devoted his life to tho
cause of liberty. The Hon. George Bancroft,
the late Minister Plenipotentiary at the Court
of St. James, Mayor Kingsland, Dr. Tyng and
Bellows, Messrs. PJchard O'Gorman and John
B. Dillon, the Irish patriots, and many other
invited guests, occupied a place on the stago
near the great Hungarian.
Hon. George Bancroft here came forward and
spoke as follows:
Ladies or New York: Woman does not
pass beyond the appropriate sphere of her duty
when she meets to join in giving a welcome to
our illustrious friend, who, surrounded by his
wife and the companions of his exile, honors us

Volga and Don rivers, and then along the
northern coast of the Black Sea, from one pasture
