be made, when it is stated that over

enter Ohio and Western Virginia, in

successfully, and saved the Capital

In July, 1864. rebel army again
crossed the Potomac, threatening the
southern border, and marched to w ash
ington.
Under the pressing demands of the
National authorities, all the organized
troops in Pennsylvania were immedi-
ately sent forward. The rebel army
was defeated and driven back. A rebel
column, of three thousand men, had,
however, crossed the border, and, on
tho 30th Of July, burned the town of
Chambersburg. In my message of
last year. ] stated IN detail the move
mcnts ofthe enemy, and the circum,
stances attending the destruction of
that borough. Although the people
OF the southern border suffered much
from annual incursions of the enemy,
Chambersburg is the only town entire
ly destroyed within our border, and,
it is believed, in any loyal State.
The citizens of the town were sud-
denly reduced to poverty, and, for
time, were sustained by the active
benevolence of the people of other
parts Of the State, aided by an appro-
priation of one hundred thousand dol
lars from the Commonwealth. They
have struggled energetically to revive
from this calamity, but it is now fear
ed that few of them will be able to
succeed. / submit, therefore, to the
wisdom of the Legislature, whether it
would not be proper to extend to that
people some additional relief.
The number Of troops furnished the
service from Pennsylvania, during the
rebellion, may be stated as follows,
viz:
