PHILADELPHIA, Jan. Z.
The message Of Governor Curtin is al
most exclusively devoted to State affairs.
He recommends compromising those who
suffered by the rebel raid. including the
three months volunteers.
Pennsylvania has furnished the Govern
NETT more than 100000 men since the
breaking out of the rebellion, besides some
$4,000 who are in the service or actually
ready for it as volunteer militia under the
call of 18th of September, making in the
aggregate more than 100000 men which
Pennsylvania has sent to the service,
100000 of whom are disfranchised
He says the necessary steps should be
forthwith commenced to amend the con-
stitution so as to give the right of suffrage
to citizens who are thus excluded.
He also says the people of Pennsylvania
will insist on the preservation of the Union
and the suppression of this most causeless
and wicked rebellion, and defends the hon.
or, interests and future welfare of the Com
monwealth. They will never tolerate
schemes. for the destruction of the Govern
ment of the United States, or for the
forming of q separate eonfederacy, Or any
other schemes for causing confusion and
ruin, and aiding and comforting traitors
in arms against the country.
The State of Pennsylvania has furnished
more men for the defence of our institu-
tons, and lost more by the casualties of
war, than any other State.
Her people intend that, by the blessing
of God, this rebellion shall be suppressed /;
and they will not be turned from their set
tied purpose by the wiles of masked enc
mics, nor by the vacillation Of feeble
minds. On the contrary, they will, as is
their right, insist that competency, integ-
rity, intelligent earnestness, and rigor shall
be employed in the public, service, to pre-
serve the Government and maintain the
unity Of the country.
