THE REIGN OF PaoTLgGACF.

TIC Legislature of this STATE, aud the Con-
ress of the United States, haying dou1led heir
pay, il would seem q corresponding system Of
extravaganza has been inausurated in every de-
partment Of government. Gov. Packer has
called the volunteers Of the State to assemble
at Willsmsport-a most inaccessible part of
| the State--to hold az eueampment- for what
purpose, no ono eau tell. That the people
must foot the bill is evident from the following
from :ho Delawayy County Republican
| MILITARY ENcAMpMENr.--lt is estimated
that the proposed military encampment at Viii
| 6ansenorl, will cost the State one hundred
thousand osliars. AS there are only fifteen
thousand dollers az present in the militia fund,
it has been suggested that it would be better
to postpone the encampment unti fnancisl az
fairs are in a better condition. 1t IS hardly
worth while to run the Commonwealth still
further in debt TO learn peaceable people the
art of war.
But every step taken, appears to illustrate
the same spirit of reckless extraVagance.-
Take the following from the same paper All
honor to the soldiers who died in the service OF
the country but il may be we'll to inquire why
the memory of the heroes Of the Revolution
are not as we'll worthy of marble monuments as
those who entered upon the war in Mexico!
A Costly MoNUMENT.-The Legislature at
its last session appropriated sir houscnd doll
lars to erect monument at Harrisburg, to the
memory Of the Pennsyl ganians who fell or died
in the Mexican war Commissioners we're ap-
pointed to decide upou the plan, and perform
such other duties as were necessary to carry
out the object CT tie law. These Comms-
sioners were appoined to decide upon tic plan,
and perform such other duties as were necessary
to carry out the object of the law. These
Commissioners met at Harrisburg, last week,
and after consultation, adopted design pre-
pared by gentleman Of Philadelphia, pro-
vided it would not cost more than fhvty ythcus-
and dollars. We presume it was the object Of
the originators CT this project, that plain anu
betting monument should be erected TO the
heroes Of the Mexican war, and the action of
the Legislature iu appropIiatiug six thousand
dollars is evidence that such was The case
The cost has now got up to thirty thousand
dollars. The SAX thousand dollars will soon
be expended in travelling and other expenses,
so we'll understood by some of the gentlemen
composing the commission. The foundation OF
the monument will probably be lail, anu the Leg
islature will be bored year after year to appro-
pirate funds to complete tho structure. There
are different ways OF leeching the State Treas
ury and this is not one of the least ingenious.
