PENNsYLvAsIA.-The message of Gov.
Skunk gives an encouraging view OF the
fiscal affairs Of the State. The revenues
of the year have exceeded the demands
upon the treasury by $500. .4O4. The
excess for next year is estimated at
S545,5lO. -
The Indebtedness ofthe common nweal,ll
is $40, ,G2S $40, being sI6O, ,627 less than
it was one year ago.
The amount of relief issues in circuIa-
ton is 1881 ,664-the means of the
Treasury will be adequate to their cancel
lation within this year and the next.
The Governor recommends the pas
sage Of law allowing the banks that is
sued them TO fund them, at a rate Of in
terest not exceeding six per cent. per an
mum, paying half yearly.
lie condemns the free banking system,
based partly upon State stocks, as, in his
opinion, safe banking can be conducted
on nothing but gold and silver.

New YEARS DAY, AT WASHINGTON
was celebrated by receptions at the Pres
ident's, at Mrs. Madison's Hon. Johr
Quincy Adams's, Vice President Dallas's
Mayor Seaton's, Secretary Marcy's and
Secretary Mason's residences. The cor.
respondent Of the Journal Of Commerce
makes the following comment upon a
part of the company at the Presidents,
which well illustrates the effect at home
Of our warlike operations abroad.
The number of officers present was un-
usually large. The number of that class
is now so great that its influence is felt !;
and we are about, by legislation, to dou-
BILE the number. The war grows more
and more popular, because it is regarded
as mere fancy ,car-one that will do
no harm to Mexico, and affords opportu-
mites to vast numbers Of our people for
employment and distinction. The pres
ure of the war is not felt at home, and
will not be while we can borrow money
to meet expenses.

LEAD PUMPS ArDPPEs.-There is great
danger to be spprchended from the use oi
lead pipes for conducting water to be used
IN drinking or cooking. II is well known
that lead is poisonous, and If taken inwardly
is the cause Of disease If taken in small quan
lities, and if taken in large quantities is the
cnuse Of death. Lead however, is an insidu-
ous poison. 1t may be taken in so small
quantities that no effect either good or bad
may be perceived or fel, for long time, bu,
II taken regularly, let the quantity be ever
so minute, disease will be sure to follow
from It's effects, and ultimately death. Thus
II water is conveyed through lead pipes, and
said wafer be in the least corrosive it is dan
gerous to use. II water be exposed so as
leaves or any vegetable substance get into
II, never use lead pipes TO convey it for do.
mes,ic use. In fact lead pipes are not safe
Tor domestic purposes, unless for conveying
filtered rain water. Those who have lead
pumps or lead pipes in their pumps should
never use the first four or five discharges
made by the pump. especially il none has
been drawn from the well or cistern for any
length of time. such as in the morning when
the pnmp has no, been touched all night

TExAs.-The whole estimated deb, Of the
late republic Of Texas, as far as acknowl-
edged by the government, and estimated by
the Comptroller is $II,05O, 900, for which
the equivalent received, ii is said, was S.
52s.l95. The amount Of taxable property
in the state, according to the assessors re-
turns for 1876, was s43747. .I65, upon which
the amount Of tax was $l02,47s. The a.
noun, Of taxable property returned thus for
in Is47 10 $45,594 ,655-seven counties to be
heard from. Tho amoun, OF tax for the year
10 estimated at $4,000. The available
means in the treasury on the 3Ist Of Oc,o-
Der last, t,he end Of the fiscal year, was
s5i ,23s.

The late storm on the French coast,
says the IIavre Rerue, swept the shores,
and turned up the sand as far as l. 'Heire.
Many articles deposited by shipwrecks
long ago have been uncovered. Among
them have been found both money and
jewelry-a coin Of Ferdinand and Isa-
bella, the sovereigns Of CASTLE and Leon,
was of the former.

LEAP YEAR, IN l848.-The ensuing
year will give those lovely tyrants, the
LADIES', The privilege Of making love
The gentlemen must remain in a state
of calm quiescence for at least three
hundred and sixty six days, during which
time they will not be permitted to refuse
any lady who shall make love to them.
TO prove this to be the case, and tn Il,
IT'S no now notion Of ours, we will quo te
an extract from an old volume published &
IN the year 1906, and entitled Court
ship, Love and Matrimonie,"
Albeit, II is nowe parte OF the
Common Lave, in regard 10 the social
relations Of life, that as often as every
beses'Ile year doth return, the ladies
have the sole privilege during the time
II continueth, Of making love unto the
men, which they may doe either by
word-S or lookes, as unto them il seemcth
proper (; and, moreover, no man will be
entitled to the benefit OF clergy who doiho
refuse to accept the offers OF ladye,
or who dothe in any wise treat her
proposal with slight or con,umely."
Long ago as the above was printed,
II seems to have been a parte of the
commoDe lave" that the ladies' should
have the privilege Of making love every
foudh year, and what was then binding
As common law is equally binding now,
since IT has never been superseded by
any statue.
