Governor of the said Commonwealth.
A Proclamation.
The period has arrived when the series of misfortunes produced by the injurious inter
ference of the National Government with the Currency of the Country is about to ter
minate. Congress having risen without sanctioning the attempt to give to the Federal
Executive the entire control of the National wealth, and of the whole amount of specie
in the country, and the consequent power to affect and wield to its own purposes all the
capital and credit of the Union; and having also imposed certain salutary restrictions on
so much of this power as had been already arrogated, it is incumbent on the Common
wealth of Pennsylvania to put forth her strength, to quicken her dormant energies, and
to take that stand in the trade and commerce of the Union, which het unbounded is',
sources, her vast natural and artificial facilities for their development, and the solid and
energetic character of her citizens.demand: to deprive her of which stand, all the mea
sures of the National Government have recently tended.
For the production of this most desirable result, the measure first requisite is,that an
end bo put to certain open infractions of the spirit of the laws, which have been forced
upon us by the overbearing necessities of the times, and to restore credit and the cep
rency to the firm basis on ivhich they stood before their late derangement was un
.necessarily brought on the people.
1, therefore, by virtue of that enjoinment of the Constitution which requires the Gov
ernor of the State to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, and for the purposes
aforesaid, do hereby require all Banks in this Commonwealth, on or before the thirteenth
day of August next ensuing the date hereof, to resume and continue the redemption of
their respective notes, bills and other - obligations, in Ginn and smvs.n COIN, according
to the true intent and meaning of their charters. And,for the purpose of aiding those insti
tutiorisin the accomplishment of this laudable object, I deem it proper to state,from the in
formation 1 have obtained,that their solvency and govern, condition is such as to entitle
them to the confidence of all who hold their notes, their amount of specie on hand being
largely increased, and of notes in circulation much diminished, since the suspension of
specie payments in May, 1837.
While it is thus cheerfully announced that the means of the Banks are ample, and that
their conduct has been, throughout the late trying crisis, generally such as to sustain our
already high character for punctuality, honesty and solvency, maintain and oven increase
our trade, keep up the value of property, and prevent the State from becoming the thea
tre of panic or distress, yet 1 shall feel bound, in duty to the public, to take all the means
in my power to compel a return to that agency and responsibility to their creditors for
which.they were created. lf, however, a return be promptly and faithfully made to that
line of duty to the laws and to the public from which they have been compelled to depart,
the occurrences of the past year will only be recorded in our history its another instance
of the perfect adaptation of republican institutions to the demands of every crisis, and will
show that common and overruling necessity being bowed to by general consent, becomes
for the time the law of the land. But to justify such rule of necessity, and to prevent fu
ture evil from its unnecessary recurrence or unjust continuance, it is indispensably re
quisite that the instant the pressure of circumstances which produced it ceases, the em
pire of the express and ordinary law of the land should be restored. Accordingly, lion
the other hand a return to general and•real redemption in specie, and a withdrawal of all
illegal paper money from circulation, do not now take place, when all admit that it
.. may
with Safety and public benefit, 1 shall hold it my duty, forthwith to take all the measure,
t . .; compel it, which the constitution and laws have placed in my power; and at the open
ing of the next session of the Legislature, to recommend the passage of such laws as
mast more effectually guard the future from the evils of the past.
And further, for the purposes and by virtue of the enjoinment aforesaid, I do also here
by require all persons or bodies corporate, who may have violated the laws of this State,
by the emission and circulation of notes of any denomination under that of five dollars,,
commonly called "Shin Plasters," to take instant measures for the full and honest re
demption of the same, in gold and silver coin, or Sueh other ample equivalent as shall be
satisfactory to the holders thereof, under pain of the penalties provided in such cases,
which penalties, if this notice he not complied with in a reasonable time, it will be thy
duty °fall good citizen to enforce.
Should this requirement be fully and promptly complied with, the Commonwealtl
will be restored to that sound currency which she possessed before the suspension, viz
One composed of gold and silver for all sums under, and of notes instantly convertibl ,
into specie for all.sums of and over, five dollars. The result of the attempt to improv , ,
the currency will then obviously be, that the only paper issues in circulation AND NO'

The third article relates to the elections;
and 1 find on comparing it with the present
constitution, that there are three important
alterations in it. From the manner in which
it is printed in the newspapers, the whole
'article being in italics, I at first supposed
that it was all new; but this is a mistake;
and,as I have said,there are three alterations
Ist.—The word white is introduced so as to
prevent blacks from voting. 2d. 'l'lle term of
residence is reduced to one year. 3d. The
tax need not have been assessed more than
ten days before the election. As to black
' (nen voting, I never heard of it in this part
of the county. If there has been any such
thing, all I can say is that I never heard of
its having been attempted. The old consti
tution of 1776, made by the patriots of the
revolution,did not contain this word "white;"
nor does the present constitution. The Su-
preme Court have decided lately,that negroes
have not the right to vote under the present
constitution. IVhat is the use then of this
amendment? If a man can get rid of a diffi
culty by his own good constitution, what is
the use of taking medicine? Thrills my idea;
and if theie was not something in the hack
ground that we don't see, I doubt if there
would be so many alterations proposed. Be
sides, I am afraid the word "white" will on
ly make new difficulties. There aro a great
many of the colored people that are nearly
white, and a great many white people that
are very dark colored. I know some mulat
toes that are lighter than real white people.
Now it will be hard upon a farmer or me
chanic whose skin has become dark by be
ing in the sun rind wind, if he should be
tuned away by some malicious inspector,
and not allowed to vote. Yet it may be so
Waits alteration should be adopted. I think
it would have been wise for the Convention
to have said at once, that Negroes, or per
sons of African descent, should not vote,he-
cause every body knows what Negro means,
and that it is not merely the color of the skin,l
but various other things distinguish their
persons. I don't think much of this altera
tion therefore. Then the next is the term •
of residence. At present no man can vote
unless ho has resided two years in the state.
Is this too mach? I for one do not think it is.
Wby should not a man Who comes here
from New England,or New Jersey,or Cana
da,have the right of voting the moment that
he comes? Because he don't know enough
about our laws and politics, and business.—
Every body agrees that he ought not to vote
immediately for that reason. Our fathers
wl.o made the Constitution in 1790 thought i
that two years was not too long; and it seems .
to me that they were right. Our young men
are not allowed to vote until they have been
21 years resident; and yet the Convention
thinks that two years is too much for strati-'
gets. 1 hope the people of Pennsylvania will
not agree to this. The next alteration is
respecting the assessment of the tax w
is to be paid. Our present Constitution sa
ilk
' that the tax must be assessed at least six
months before the, election; that is, ev'
Man must be assessed so long. The object
was, I suppose, to prevent cheating at elec
tions and smuggling in votes. When the
list is made out six months before, there is
only a small chance of that—but if it is made
mit only 10 days before, it is probable that
there will be a good many names slipped in
