I will insert Here an extract trom his speech the City of Alleg Heny on the 20th inst., As reported in a Whir paper the system of internal improvement left a debt hanging Over us of about when gov. Ritner closed ins administration the Public debt was rising when i came to office it had accumulated to forty millions and a half through the instrumentality of our opponents while in Power who had mis applied the Public funds. The time was approaching when you would be forced to repudiate your Public debt or Bear a Burden which would be intolerable unless some remedy was non a i. J 1845, the Large amount of All o which were receivable at the state Treasury of taxes and All other sources of Revenue it come with a very bad Grace from gov. Johnston t object to these notes As they owe their Date to to him. The fact is that when the interest was Hirly paid in 1845 and 1846, every Man in the Commonwealth believed that our financial Dis Honor and embarrassments were rest moved Ai her Faith and credit permanently restored reference to the newspapers of All parties at the Orion. Will Chnuer. Whole ao.686, 8how the truth of this remark. To to extract from my report to the legislature in Jan n legislature in january 1847 Commonwealth applied. The debt was increasing and would of Cates have swelled to such an amount As would have rendered its liquidation on utterly hopeless task. 1 looked upon it As important that ii e Commonwealth reached that Point when no new to pay interest would be taken and from that period to 1 february 1845, no interest was paid but Var. This Johnston u3 lip Uriati Inai something should be devised to relieve the people from the i occurred years before gov Burden which not Only effected the into Power and As you must be i but another class of the comm with the efforts of that dark and Bloomy vrho uni children to educate and period of our history As a slate i would he u late res de in a system of Public pm a re to your recollections of them in a Jettjr for publication.

The finances of the Commonwealth attracted my careful attention As Early an my first session at a member of the the state was then nil majr from the bad Man Stirns it i tuner s admin Rolion. The act it the soil of March wind imposed a map tax of one Mill on the Dollar upon the Vilu Alion of certain properly Hud been Benefi civil.

By Fri in schools Blo Reihan half a million of the Public debt has been pud since he who now addresses you has been in Public let u4 see How the facts will warrant these bold and reckless declarations. From the commencement of our improvement system up to August. 1842, it was the practice to equalize the receipts with the expenditures by Means Ofa loan. But our financial difficulties were such that although a loan was authorized to pay the interest in August 1842, there were no bidders for Tho loan and the interest in con sequence was not paid. The legislature of 1843 met but nothing was accomplished no taxation authorized or any sources of Revenue created. I know not what difficulties that legislature had to encounter not being a member that session. The legislature of 1844 met under circumstances of depression and gloom. The eyes of the world were upon we had not travelled the Story of our Dishonour Hon. We Bigler was speaker of the Senate i was speaker of Tho House of representatives. In con Junction with a few other democratic members we determined that nothing should be left in done that was honorable and proper in order j Viilo sufficient Revenue to meet All the Public engagements and gradually liquidate the state debt. Be which were put at five per cent. This rapid Mcrea a of the Dubi destroyed our credit produced the deepest alarm in every reflecting mind and if not timely arrested would hive inflicted on irreparable injury upon our Commonwealth and our citizens. To regain our position maintain our credit and fulfil our so Lemn obligations to those who had loaned us their Money there was but one course to be pursued and thit was Iti connection with retrenchment and Economy to rely upon taxes to Supply the deficiency in the Revenue. During the last two have been fully Ana prom Pill Loans have been Public liabilities have been promptly revenues have increased from nearly nil sources and the Public debt is diminishing. I make these observations principally to show that we should maintain generally the present enactments in relation to Revenue carefully either the Oriner system of Loans or any new experiments under that idea that Axa ten May be avoided by some financial Panacea we have passed the most difficult safety and to tand upon solid ground. Period in it is Best one would in be supposed thit Al would have of Al our sub a be Rumril Rel As the True financial Gilill cultic t i i lint no taxation wis that the Fnu cd states Bank would rail Nidus wherever p i Lleni cd with the whig the people were pr0posltion to sell tax Bill.

Were wanted furnish a i Jority of the democratic members determined to support the Bill and on the 18th of april it it passed the House. In the Senate both pro visions of the Bill were opposed at first 6y a majority. The Bill was at length after being materially altered passed by that body. Owing to the differences Between the two houses the Bill was referred to a committee of conference. Or. Speaker Bigler appointed on the part of the Senate messes. Farrelly Hughes Spackman Black and Foulkrod. I appointed on the part of the House of representatives messes. Tustin and these committees were appointed towards the close of the session and were arranged by col. Bigler and myself in such manner As to insure a sufficient Revenue Bill. The report of the committees was adopted on the 26th, in the House of representatives on the 27lh in the Senate on the 29lh gov. Porter signed the Bill. And the same Day the legislature adjourned sine die. And thus the important act of the 29ih of april 1844, was passed an act which re deemed the credit of the opened a Way for the gradual payment of our state debt la every step of the Progress of tins Law col. Bigler was its firm Active and efficient Friend. Without his Aid it could never have passed during that session of the Legisla Ture and had the subject been postponed i do not know i hardly dare think what might have been the result. Already in some coun ties the dark spirit of repudiation was in Lancaster Lehigh and Cumberland and of course repudiation parties were organized. Let us examine some of the results of the act 393 22 00 to Advance slowly and steadily rather than by spelling a Shorter route to endanger our pre e it posh Ion and Popard the future which now brio tens before is. But it is said the it guv. Johnston Ina advanced the novel idea Ofa milking fund which has been by gov. Porter and Gen. Birkel. The Revenue yielded by the net of 29lh april 1844, in Coirini Doii with other Revenue then i Purpi did the and pro diminished the debt. I will show the it Inell there was a More Effric tic sinking fund Dunner gov. Shunk s and ministration thin since. It is no no str a to Ili Vort Moni y from the Jap neral fund and it in another fund but let is fee How far Llie debt of the Commonwealth h paid. The Follme mar i inv prepared from copies of official reports now in my posses Sion. It therefore May to relied on As accurate state 1, 181o, Jan. 1, 1s47, Jan. 1, 1848, dec. 1, 1849, 1 dec. 1, 1850, 44 debt paid. Gov., Snowdon treas. Banks Plumer , recapitulation. Debt paid in gov. Shunk s administration debt paid in gov. Johnston s admin i is ration 58 these Are remarkable figures in of gov. Johnston s arrogant pretentious. Compare these results with the extract from his Allegheny speech and you see the difference Between allegation and facts. The amount in the sinking fund on the 1st Day of december last the time to which my statement was 97 but it is not True that the state debt is diminished an equal amount of that sum. It Only shows the fact thai amount of the general Revenue has been appropriated to that fund. In my statement of the amount of debt at that period i have of course allowed a credit for the amount of the sinking fund. It would seem As if gov. Johnston has got the Bright idea that every Dollar that goes into the sinking fund diminishes the state debt whereas it is Only taking it one pocket and putting it into another. The Only Vony to ascertain How the debt stands is to look at All the receipts and expenditures going to the dogs. By t s Arthur. I received your Bill to Day or. Leonard said a customer As he entered the shop of a master Mechanic. We Are sending out our accounts at this season returned the i want to pay very Well or. Baker we re always glad to get 6 you must throw off something. Let me see the customer Drew out the Bill Twenty seven dollars and forty six cents f when Leonard ordered the goods the Mer chant declined Selling except for Cash. As you returned the Mechanic in a inherently and went elsewhere and made his purchases. It happened that or. Leonard had a very pretty and interesting daughter on whose Edu the Simoon. There receipt the Bill can t. Twenty live will do. And i la pay but or. Leonard Shook his head. I t deduct a cent from that Bill or. Baker. Every article is charged at Bur regular of yes you can. Just make it Twenty five even Money. Here it and Mir Buker counted out the cosh. I m sorry or. Biker but i cannot Afroh to deduct any thing. I you d Only owed me Twenty five dollars your Bill would have been just that mount. I would not have added a cent beyond that was due nor can i take anything a less than my own. Then you won t deduct the Odd Money v i cannot Vury the manner w the customer hanged. He was evidently offended. " the ill is too High by just the sum i asked to have trick can off. Bui no Mailer i can pay then you mean to said the me Hanic who was an Independent sort of a Man that i am cheating you out two dollars and 01 to six i did t say but it is Plain that you think or you Voul Dii t have asked an abatement. Of you con dered my charges just you would to dispute Lem of never mind never mind Well not Aste words about it. Here s your a u m Bolier and to added another five Ollar Bill to the sum he had Laid Down the the effects of the Simoon Are instant suffocation to every Wing creature that happens to be sphere of its activity and immediate of the carcasses of the dead. The cation the Mechanic had bestowed great pains discern its approach by an unusual redness and it also happened that Baker had a son who air and they say they feel and smell of in most things was a Chip of the old Block pulp Lar As la pusses. The Only Means by which particular was he like his father in his great any preserve himself from suffering love of Money and scarcely had he reached a v blasts is by throwing himself Jonty Ere he began to Loofe about him with a has upon the Earth nil this we girl careful Eye to a Good matrimonial arrangement w nil of poisonous exhalations has passed Over by which plenty Money would be secured. Whlcl1 moves at a certain height in the Adelaide Leonard on account of her Beauty i Virci get Najiy Anu occomplishments.1 was much caressed and mingled free in society. Young Baker had met her frequently and could not help being struck with her Beauty intelligence and Grace. There is a Charm said a Friend to him one evening. In miss Leonard 1" she s a charming replied life Youn Man. I wonder if her father is Worth any Ini j Hia pocket with a Pei Lent air Ami then turned and left the shop without another word. It s the last Bill he Ever has against muttered Baker to is he walked . If that s his manner of treating customers hell Sunn go to the diffs lie was downright insult ing and no gentleman will stand that from a vulgar Mechanic. Mean to insinuate Humph yes i did mean to insinuate. And or. Baker involuntarily quickened his Pace Holl soon go to the dogs. I be p lid him a great Deal of Money but it is the last Dollar of mine he Ever b Iker was As Good As his word. He with Drew his custom from the offending Mechanic and eave it to another. Customers lne same business to the me Nici some six or eight months afterwards. A i i a of 1844. It so happened that the legislature of i and balance the account. 1845 elected to state one of the friends and makers of this Law. I had thus the Opportunity of aiding in carrying it into effect. When i entered upon my official duties in Bink u. S. Surplus Revenue total 45 and yet. Notwithstanding this immense Sam thus fortunately and unexpectedly received he increased the indebtedness of the com men Cali to the amount of 9g the a Motel in which the slate was indebted when he left executive chair was 80. Gov. Porter in his first message says this slate debt with the exception of appropriated at Tho last session of the legislature to Tho Survey of a railway from Hornsburg to Pittsburg to Stock in the Frank Lin Railroad and to Stock in Tho and Ohio was contracted prior to the of i Lannery 1839, Tho Day of my inauguration it is True that Tho euro of was authorized to to borrowed since that period hut the whole of this Large amount with the above exception was appropriated to the payment of debts and liabilities due and falling due in the year for Tho payment of which no provi Sion had been made when i entered upon the duties of my office thus i think i have shown that the measures adopted during or. Rimer s were in the highest degree injurious to the lie credit and that the allegation which is Mude by Tho whig press and whig orators int the indebtedness of the Commonwealth was not increased during his official tenure is untrue though i admit Tho fact that no permanent loan we made during that period unexpected receipts the following earns Viz j addition to the funded debt and Relief notes 67 there was due the holders of our Stock for in 78 Terest due them the sum of 28, for which certificates bearing interest were issued. By addressing circulars to every officer or per son connected in any form with the by appealing not Only to the patriotism but to the interests of the people in giving a Liberal construction to that portion of the act which Al lows abatement of five per cent by compelling those in arrears to make above All being aided by the Public press and a Patrio tic were Able during the year of 1845, to pay the interest on the Public debt As it fell due and to meet All other liabilities of the state without borrowing a Dollar. Thus fur the first Lime in the history of Pennsylvania since the commencement of our Public improve ments were the receipts equal to the expenditures without making a loan in january 1846, i was re elected state treasurer. During1 that year the Treasury was in a condition to meet All demands upon it and in addition thereto there was paid on account of the Public debt besides the interest the turn of two Hundred and forty six thousand eight Hundred and sixteen dollars and Twenty two cents it May be said by some Cavaler that the in Terest was not All paid in Par funds. I answer that it was paid in the same funds that All other creditors of the Commonwealth received. A Small portion of it it is True was paid in Relief notes. This was unavoidable because there were in circulation of these notes in january 1, i Hora whole Namai Are in Ili Lici were f regret that i could not make this letter mor Brief. You Are aware How much this subject formerly occupied my time and attention and now i can Only say that out of the abundance of the heart tha Mouth i am dear Sif with great respect very truly your Friend James Ross snowmen. Mado inquiry of Iho proper Offish i by letter and am into mod Tyml Talmre has been no Clinge in Llie slate debt Worth noticing Sinco the dec. unrivalled Forte player. We find the following extraordinary state ment in the National count Orloff has just presented to the emperor of Russia an extraordinary musical phenomenon in the person of a Young Wallachia called Frederick Roltz. This Man has been born with four hands each having five fingers. He was brought up by a clergy Man who taught him to play on the Organ but the Young Man in the course of time made a piano Forte for himself of considerably greater Power than that of Ordinary instruments. He enjoys excellent health and with the exception of the hands presents nothing strange in his person it is Only from the Elbow that malformation commences. The Arm there divides into two limbs each ending in a hand with a double Supply of fingers. These additional arms Are regularly made and the Only remark Able Point observed by medical men is the immense development of the deltoid muscle at the Summit of the shoulder. The Clergyman who had brought up Roltz at his death left him his Small property and Man immediately purchased Diamond rings with which to loaded his Twenty fingers. It was with them so adorned that he performed be lore the emperor of Russia who expressed his Surprise at the musical Powers of the Young Roltz it is said is shortly to visit Leonard shrugged his shoulders. How came you to lose him t i la Lell you How you can keep Well How if your Bill amounts to thirty dollars make it thirty three and a few Odd cents by increasing some of its items. He will want the sur plus knocked off which affair Dodo then he will pay it and think you just the Man for him you lost him then because you would t Abate anything from a Irue i did1 thank you. But suppose my Bill should be Twenty six or seven or eight what then i could t Knock Oft thedd dollars for the purpose of making it v no. In that Case you must add until you get about and fill Back to Thill yes. It will to knocking off the Odd Dol Lars which he will think Clear that would hardly be hardly. But you must do it or lose his custom some Day or i shall have to accommodate him i suppose. If he will be cheated it can t be on the very first Bill that Baker paid to his new tradesman he obtained an abatement of one Dollar and ninety cents Odd Money but actually paid three dollars Mose than was justly still he was very satisfied imagining that he made a saving of one Dollar and ninety cents. The not Over scrupulous tradesman laughed in his sleeve and kept his customer. Having withdrawn his support from Leonard it was the candid opinion of or. Baker that he was going to the As he expressed it about As fast As a Man could go. He often passed the shop but rarely saw a customer. No he would say to himself. A Man like him can t expect and does t deserve in the eyes of Baker the very grass seemed to grow upon the pavements before the door of the declining tradesman. Dust settled thickly in his window and the old sign turned grayer and grayer in the bleaching air. Going to the and no j Baker would say to himself As he went by. He appeared to take a strange interest in watching the gradual decay of the Mechanic s fortunes one Day a mercantile Friend said do you know anything about Thia Leonard t Why asked Baker. Because he wants to make a pretty Large Bill with on time 1" yes on the usual credit of six Don t sell him. Aljy the Man is going to the dogs at Railroad yes i m looking everyday to see him close up. He might have done Well for he under stood his business. But he s so Una commode Ting and i must say insulting to his customers that he drives the beet ones away i used to make Large Bills with him but Havn t dealt at his shop now for some i a i aware of that. I am g Ltd i spoke to you for i should t like to lose six or seven Hundred six or seven Hundred is it possible thai he wants to buy so recklessly take my advice and Don t think of trusting i certainly shall people say they say the old fellow has i id up something quite handsome and As Adelaide is ins Only child she will of course get it i was not aware of it is nil so i after this Young Baker was exceedingly attentive to miss Leonard and made perceptible inroads upon her heart. He even went so far As to regularly at her House and was meditating an avowal of ins attachment when his father said to him one what Young lady was that i saw you with in the Street yesterday afternoon 1" her name is Leonard the daughter of old Leonard in Street 1" yes or. Biker looked grave Nyrl Shook his head. Do you know anything about her asked the son. Nothing about her atmosphere.

So the Jeorld moves on. People Are prone to that what they smile on lives., and what they frown on is blighted and must die. Sik is a kind of insanity.
