WHEELING, West Va, October p.
The vote Of the city lis not yet flu ly
counted. 1T is about 1000 larger
than in 1856. Ia the city and county
the vote is close, with probably small
Republican gains.
Returns from the State come in
Teagerly. We can only hear from a
fw small towns along the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad. : Advices from
fifteen villages show an increased
vote, and gains pretty well balanced,
though rather favoring the Republi-
cans.
The Republicans viii carry the
State by a somewhat reduced major
itv from 1866, but>increased over
1867. The Democrats have made ex-
traordinary Efforts, and have had help
from outside. The Republican ma
iority may be 5000, but hardly below
3 600. They will probably elect all
their three Congressm N, and a ma
jority of the Legislature, which Sc.

fessor in the State University We
take pleasure in bearing testimony t.
his faithful DISCHARGE of the duties of
Superintendent of Public Instruct n

the School Law, which was very cru ie

purposes was increased 60 per cent.

cities and towns to sustain schools the

GOVERNORS
A N NUAL MESSAGE.

Fello,O Citizens of the General As.
SemJiy::
4 II is made my duty by the Con
stitution to lay before you the gen.
craT condition of tho affairs Of the
State in the several departments Of
the government, and TO suggest
such Legislation as may seem expe-
dicnt in view Of such condition. /
shall endeavor 10 perform this du.
ty as briefly as a clear statement
OF our affairs will permit, and shall
avoid The discussion OF all aues-
tions not directly growing out Of
the administration of the State
Government.
The reduction in the burdens Of
taxation, OF which the estimate was
presented in my last message, was
carried into effect under the legis.
lation of last winter, making say.
ing of three millions OF dollars to
the people. This was mainly in
consequence of the cessation OF tho
extraordinary expenditures belong.
ing to q state of war, and the re-
sumption of the ordinary routine
of peaceful life.
The balance in the Treasury on
the 18th Of November. 1866, was
81 ,O2l ,25l.68; the receipts during
the last fiscal year were S5.l55..
7O3.45 making the total amount
Of funds in the Treasury during tho
year, Sc, ,176,95513 @
The disbursements during. the
year have been So ,498, 964 "a, which
amount has been paid out from the
several funds in the sums follow.
The Lancaster gazette. [volume] (Lancaster, Ohio) 1863-1886, 1868-01-16
DISBURSEMENTS.

Estimated balance Nov. Is, IsOs...... sa7e,4sO o.
The whole amount of taxes levied
by the State Government durihu
the year has been Sl6.S68,437.34, oI
which all except the amounts above
reported as collected for the State
Treasury, has been collected and
disbursed' in the counties, cities
and villages, for local purposes. =
The delinquencies and costs of col.
lection have been more than ordi
narily light, amounting in ali to
but 2 s 10 per cent. Of tho total
levy.
The valuation Of the property of
the people OF the State upon the
grand duplicate is. s1,l3S,754,779.
10, being an increase of S32.545,.
Sb8.00 upon the valuation of last
year. This increase is, in very
great measure, owing to the in.
creased accuracy and care in the
administration Of the laws, and the
growing familiarity Of local boards
OF equalization with their duties
under the statutes.
The Commissioners of tho Sink.
ing Fund Rave, during the year,
paid 1882 1853 Of the funded debt
OF the State, leaving outstanding
Sll,O3l ,94l,5 SO. The question of
providing for the installments to
be paid during the next three years,
will be before you. The present
rate of levy will not be quite suffi-
cient for The purpose, about $780,.
900 being required in addition TO
what will be raised thereby. The
recommendation of the Auditor of
State, that brief temporary loan
be made for the purpose, is sup
ported by the fact that it is very
probable that tile present rate of
.axation, without increase, would,
n q very short period, pay both
he succeeding installments of the
iebt and the loan thus raised /; the
from the Treasury
being exceptionally largo at this
lime, by reason of the erection and
of Benevolent Institu.
ions, and the necessity Of refund.
ng to the National Banks taxes
which have been adjudged by the /
Courts TO have been unlawfully
collected. l therefore concur in
he Auditors recommendation.
BY provision of the annual ap.
'ropriation bill Of last year the
auditor was authorized to transfer,
emporarily, balances of various !
unds to the Sinking Fund, and to /
'ay Herewith portions OF the debt
f the State, thereby stopping in.
crest thereon. The expectations /
f advantage from this statute have /
eenSrealized without any practi. 8
al detriment to the business of the g
'reasury, and by this means q (
aving has been made of the sum n
$37 ,43084, which would other b
Use have been paid as interest on b
he debt. The plants so manifest. c
' economical and proper, that l d
,commend that il be made perma. i

The usual examinations of the :
reasury have been made during n
10 year, and special examina. n
