Ics of Philadelphia county. They were
not the farmers and honest laborer* from
the county. They are not wont to appear
in deliberative assemblies, to 'grieve' with
pistola, and assert tlo'ir rights with dag
gers. No! The Perk, who were thus
'excited' were a hired banditti Item the;
corrupt purlieus .ef I hiladelphia. They'
came in bands under regular leaders. Mr
Flenniken, a leading Van :Laren werebet
of the House from Fayette county, wrote
on the 4th and sth December, to one of hie
his constituents "that Lorca was th ore
at the head of one hundred men fre e , the
county of Philadelphia, and it:se hundred;
more world follow!" Al'',ut two hund •
red actually arrived. The most respec-1
table of them—the "Captains of Tens,"
were keepers ut disorderly houses in Ken
sington. Then came journeymen butch
ers who were too worthless to find regu
lar employment—next. professional Box
ers, who practice their pugilistic power
for hire; low gamblers who infest Oyster
cellars of the suburbs.—A portion eif
them consisted of a class of men, whose,
business you wTs hardly understand.—
Dog-keepers who, in ;;Iringarden and
Southwark raise and train a ferocious
breed of dogs, whom they tight weekly
for wagers, and for the amusement of this
"indignant people!" Their troop was
flanked by a few professional thieves and
and discharges! convicts. These men,
gathered no from the lanes and hovels,
were re-fitted with such cast-oh" clothes.
as their employers could command, and
hired at fifteen dollars the head and freight
to come to Harrisburg, and instruct the
Legislature in As duties, ant! protect their
"rights!"
This is a faithful and not exaggerated
description of what you are told was the
"Democracy" that visited the Legislative
Halls! This, to be sure, is the kind of
Democracy that such renegade Federalists
as commanded them, generally find com
munion with!
I have thus given you an honest, though!
imperfect account of the scenes of the
first week of December. I have stated
nothing but what I know personally, or
have learned from unquestionable author-
.1
ity. All, and much more, is capable of
Roof. I believe the actors to he guilty of
Treason; and so far as I am personally
concerned, 1 shall always treat them as
Traitors. To call their leaders mere in
surgents or assassins would be doing in
justice to the dignity of their crime.--
They went for empire, the Laws to them
are servile shackles. They prefer "Pro
visional Government." and "Committee
of Safety;" next will come the "Revolu•
tionary Tribunal" and theguillotine; and
these leaders of the "People" will shine
forth the Muttons and Robcsinerres of the
age! Why do we forget the magnitude
of the question, by stooping to inquire
.which of the Philadelphia returns was
correct? Can that question be settled by
a rebellious army expelling,. the Legislature
from Halls which should ever be inviolate,
and then, they be justified by pleading
the correctness of their judgment on the
leading points thus decided?
This paper is already too long. I shall
defer the further history of the crimes of
some and shame of others, until another
number.
Very respectfully,
• Your obedient servant,
THADEUS SI'EVENS,
&Message from the Governor'
Communicating a statement of the relation
in which this Government has been pla
ced to a portion of its citizens and to the
Executive of the Union,
FELLOW CITIZENS or THE SENATE
AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES:
Availing myself of the only opportunity
which the temporary adjournment of the
Legislature allows me, 1 think it right to
communicate to you a statements of the re,
'talons in which this Government has been
placed to a deserving portion of its citizens
and to the Executive of the Union.
It is with regret that I recal tha atten
tion of the Legislature to the scenes of '
violence and disorder which so long sus- I
pended the functions of Government in
this Commonwealth. Whit then occur
red has become matter of history. I do
not now mean to dwell more than is ne
cessary upon a topic which is painful, as
effecting the character of tour popular in
stitutions. Believing that an emergency
had arisen of so extreme a nature as to
demand the exercise of what may be con
sidered the extraordinary powers vested
in me by the Constitution and Laws, I is
sued an order to two divisions of Pennsyl
Mania milltia, to march to Harrisburg to
protect the Legislature in the discharge
of its duties. That order was promptly
obeyed, and I had the satisfaction of wit
nessing the alacrity wills which the citi
zen soldiers of the Commonwealth repair
ed to the standard which the Constitution
authorized me to raise, in a crisis of pub
kedanger. Upwards of 1000 men mar
ched to Harrisburg and remained in ser.
vice until it was deemed proper to dis
band them. A large majority of the sol
diers were young men, dependent on
their daily industry for their Bail}- bread.
Brought by the Constitutional order from
their homes at a season of the year when
an trterruption of business is most to be a
voided, some of them leaving their fami
lies •it a notice to short to make provis.
sons tor even a limited absence, they cheer
fully acquiesced in the necessity which
existed.. Theexcellent discipline by which
they were regulated, the propriety of their'
deportment, the sacrifice of all differences
of opinion to the Supremecy of the Laws,
which they were called on to maintain, are
worthy of all commendation.
Nor was the result *.of this movtmen',
other titan was hoped. The wrese,ice of I
p the militia at once repressea e violence
, of the mob. The procef,, Qi judicial author
lig was executed, The Senate resumed
its functions ostler and tranquility was
'restored, nut for this timely intervention,
!thi.: 'wishes of the people as recently ex
-I).r, essed in adopting an amended Constitu
Ilion would have been defeated and the
constituted 4ficer prevented from count
ing the votes given on that important ques
lion. The use which in any apprehended
exigency I might have been called on to
make of the force placed at my disposal,
%%as duly considered, and such a decision
made as I believed the people would have
authoris 2d. I herewith communicate an
official letter Lfrom the Attorney General
of the Commonwealth, prepared by my di
rections, which indicate the course 1 inc
tended to pursue.
Had ti.e necessity for issuing the orders
to the militia been less than it was, their
Jahns Jr , compensation and indemnity
!Or their time would be the same. I ant
not disposed to mingle this question with
any other. I mean now to present it to
the Legislature us a claim on the State for
services rendered, tinder a Constitutional
order by deserving and patriotic citi7ens
The military who came to Ilarris'lurg, are
in no sei se answerable for the order which
they obeyed. The responsibility of that,
order rests on him who issued it, Deep in
deed would be the dishonor, if any impulse •
of faction, shouid extend that responsibili'
ty others to whom it does not belong, and
thus defeat [the simple claims resulting
from the faithful discharge ofa (military
duty. I cannot believe t;:at the com
monwealth will be made subject to such a
reproach. _ _ _
1 do not believe that I should be com•
pelted to bring this to your consideratio.l.
The 63d section of the militia law, au
thorizes the Governor yin all cases iofein
ergency, where money may be wanted, to
organize, furnish or supply the milita or
the Commonwealth, who may be called in
to the actual service, to draw his warrant
State Treasure, for such sum or
sums and to dispose of it in such
manner as tn.:
emg ,2 ! ;cy may require'—
Under this section tv,:."ra;lB were drawn
on the .State Vreasure wm . ,:'. 11 that nfhcer
has relused to pay. The letter t h e law
is plain, and unless the State Treasure
not the Governor, is to judge of the emer
gency, the duty of the Treasurer under
the law is equally plain. The power of
the Legislature to g;ve redress in a case
in which the rights of a portion of our fel
low citizens have been thus injuriously re
sited is complete. The State Treasurer
who has arrogated to himself an authority
which the law never conferred to! im, is
the officer of the L°gislat and in the
first place responsible to tflffi. I there,
fore, confidently solicit Jour early atten
tion to a claim founded on justice and au
thorized by law. Every hour's delay is
an hour's injustice. The disbursing of
ficer will submit at any moment a state
ment of the amount which will be requires
ed.
In connection with this subject, I must
recall the:attention of the Legislature to
another of equal interest . At the time
when the domestic violence occurred of
which I have already spoken, I consider
ed that 1 should be wanting in my duty as
the Chief Executive Magistrate of the
Commonwealth, if any measure of precau•
Lion were omitted. Application was there,
fore made to the President of the United'
States for the assistance, which by the
Constitution of the Union, he is bound to
render. The correspondence which fol
lowed is already before the people. To
die popular judgment on it I cheerfully de
fer, and would not again allude to it, but
for some further action of the federal au
thorities .
The true relations of the State and Fed
eral authorities cannot be too carefully'
guarded. Sack is the happy and deli
cate organization of our confederate insti
tutions, that the instant they become in
volved, there is danger to our glorious sys
tem of C..,nstitutional republicanism. It
has been my lot more than once during
my official ,term to reprobate the. interfe
rence of agents of the Federal Govern
ment, in the domestic concerns of the
Commonwealth. The conduct which I
had felt coiled on to hold up to the indig
nation of the people,whether the intrigues
in a foreign country to wound the credit
of the State, or more recently the undis
guised violence at the seat of Government
was the couduct of mere subordinates.
Until proved to be:sio by the late corres
pondence, I never imagined that the high
est functionaries of the General govern
ment could be actuated by a similar spir
it, or would when called to exercise the
protecting power with which the Consti•
tution has invested them, willingly as
sume the attitude of partizans, and lend
themselves to a deliberate effort to insult
the constituted authorities of a State yet
sovereign and indepenent.
To inetter addressed by the chief ma
gistrate of this Commonwealth to the
President of the United States, no reply
was given; the subject was referred to the,
Secretary of War, who assumed to be the
proper organ of communication with me.
Unwilling to submit to what appeared to
be an indignity to the State, I declined
corresponding with any other than the
. President, and informed him of the view
1 was led to take of the very exceptiona
ble lone of the Secretary's letter. In or
der that the correspondence may b• offi
cially before tho legislature, I now corn•
municate it with this message. It must
not be supposed that on a mere point of
form Iplaced myself in this position• to
the federal authorities. The time may
i come when, alter the temporary differen- 1
Ices shall be removed, and the conflicts'
(which have agitated the community have
subsided, the conduct of a chief magis
trate of a state, may be looked back to as
a precedent of resistance to all invasion
of the rights he is bound to protect, and
to any indignity to the sovei eiznity with
which he is id en tiliel

Gentleman's Magazine.
Owing to a great press of matter. we
have neglected for some time, to notice
this valuable periodical. To make amends
for the past, and to show our feelings to
its' gentlemanly Editor, and publisher; we
have inserted their prospectus, [tho' somo
what condensed] with its -.new fsattir.s' ,
properly arrayed.
We received the last No. much impro
ved in appearance, last week. Its con
tents are equal to its appearance, and
neither are excelled by any similar peri
odical, we have ever seen. The worthy
gentleman who conducts: it, deserves ;
and we feel assured, will receive the re
ward, their exertions to please, merit .
There is one thing we much regret, by
the by—Our August .No., never reached
us; and it contains the continuation of
"henry Penney." If the Editor can
furnish us with one, wa will say with old
Cosey that is what I call comfortable."
