the payment Of the debts 10 Individuals contTac-
ted on the faith Of the Government" Page l2G.
Gov. Slaughter was succeeded by Colonel Ben
jamin! Fletcher man Of strong passion. very,
active and equally avaricouS. In September
1892, the revenue established for the year precc-
ding was continued for five years Longer. Gov.
Fletcher proved to be sub-Treasurer Of the
first water, according to the history.
"a that day the Assembly had no treasure;
but the amount of taxes went of course into the
hands OF the Receiver General who was appoin-
ted by the SCrown! Out of this fund moneys
were issuable only by the Governors warrant,
from Mr.. BIalthWait, who drew annually five
per cent, out of the revenue as Auditor General
down to the meaneSt servant Of the Public, be-
came dependant solely on the Governor; and
hence we find the House, at the close of every
SESSION, humby addressing his fEXcellelcy for
the trfling wages oftheir own clerk.-Page l42.
Gov Fletcher was succeeded by Richard Earl
OF Belmont, who, in his opening speech, gave
the Assembly his word Of honor that be ,luOuid

ton OF the public money. | will pocket none of
il myself, nor shall there be any embezzlcment

I55.
Fortunately for the people; Lord Belmont was
4 man oil ms word; but his successor, Lord
Cornbury, was so prone to practical uD-Trea-
Surysm, that the Assembly refused to raise mo-
ney to be put in his hands, and address the Queen
of England.

through the frauds which had formerly been
committed, the better 10 facilitate the important
design of having treasurer dependant on the
Assembly Page 1T
Lord Cornby was removed, and in June, l72I
the Assembly, according 10 permission from the
Queen, elected treasurer.
In l74l, Lieut. Gov Clark, in his speech TO the
Assembly, complained Of the encroachment Of
the Legislature upon the prerogatives. His la
mentalion ran in this wise
'Lale Assemblies, having grown wanton by
prosperity, had abused the cemency of The
Crown, and had demanded the nomination O
their own treasurer; this demand having beer
granted, they had further insisted on the particu
lar appointment of The salaries of the officers o
Government, and absolutely refused to raise any
revenue unless this demand was likewise gran
ted. Page 444.
The Assembly, in their address, in reply to tht
Governor, said:
"That while the public moneys were at thu
disposal of the Governor and Council, they wer
miSapplied and that the Assembly, to correc
the evil, directed such moneys as were raised 70
the forces intended for the security ofthe colony
to pass through the hands of person appointe,
by the Legislature; that Queen Anne had sane
toned that procedure, and allowed the Legisla
ture to adpoint its own r."-Page 447.

and patriotic defiance of their menaces and
their power; against which, even legislative
enactments are vain, and the bsyonets of
any other soldery than those of standing
army poinlless, impotent and unavaiing.-
In such emergencies they would learn that
they could put no reliance on the aid of
" citizen soldiers" for they will participate
IN the feelings and the wrongs OF their fell
low citizens, and refuse obedience TO those
who would command them, If they consid-
er such obedience intended to insult those
feelings or aggravale those wrongs.
Our own recent experience affords abun-
dani confirmation of these general truths.
We can proudly refer TO the history Of Penn
sylvania for proof, undoubted proof, that our
republican institutions are reared on loun-
datlon not only permanent but impregnabe.
We have seen them assalled, at times, by
both corruption and force, by adversely aud
prosperity, by foreign war and domestic
dscord; by the Independent energies of the
people and the audacity of those they had
entrusted with power; they have wiLhstood
all those trials, they have not been shaken,
but around them have cllng with broader
and lirmer grasp, every feeling Of atfec-
ton and every principle Of liberty that can
animate the breasts of an American people.
But year has elapsed since the patriot
was trembling for the fate Of this common
wealth, agiiated as it seemed, 10 the very
verge Of civil war between the people and
their rulers, The danger is past--uanqul-
ity is restored--tIls legislature assemblies
ds those did, composed Of the fathers of the
republic, under auspicious Omens; scarce
trace Of conyulsion remains, except in the
stern and awful lesson it has taught 10 all
public functonaries, lesson they will not
in future dare to deride, that when major
ty of the people has passed judgment on
any men or any measure, it is worse than
folly and desperation, TO treat that judgment
as if it had not been pronounced.
We are indebted 10 gracious Providence
for season Of general health, of abundant
harvests, and for as great measure Of pros
periLy and blessings, as in his inscrutabe
wisdom, he usually bestows on the nations
of the earth. Peace with foreign nations,
security 10 our wide and extended COM
merce, and respect 10 our flag, in all seas,
characterize our national relations, and de-
monstrate that their guardianship is repos-
ed in faithful hands.
In performing the duty erjoined on me
by the constitution, of giving 10 the legsla-
lure information CT the state of the COM
monweath, and recommending TO their con-
sideration such,measures as mvy Judge ex-
pedient, must in the first place, invite your
