Conclusion.
IN the foregoing suggestions have endeav0red to
submit 10 you IN shape as condensed as the guam
lily oi Hatter ana the importance OF the subjects
would justify, the transactions of the past year in
the organized departments of the city. am aware
tnaJ the Counclls are exercising constant super
vision, and do invoke a continuance of watchful-
ness over and scrutiny of those who are charged
with the duties OF administering public affairs.
While laws are essential, they fail to be OF
advantage unless enforced through capable
and honest men, and TOO much attention
cannot be given to the character and capa-
city OF those selected for public onlcers
either by the people or Councils. Our city is worth
all the trouble. We have everything TO make us
proud OF our position, and when We consider its uni
form HEALTH and the comfort with which all our
citizens can live, we must be thankful to the Divine
Ruler under whose providence we enjoy these bless

cooperation shall always be cheerfuly given to you

legislation for the prosperity and happiness
OF our people; and in conclusion, while
urging upon you strict supervision OF every
department and rigid economy, no means nor

the cleanliness and health OF our city, to promote
the public convenience and to insure to all our citl
zens the fullest protection to their property, their
health, and their lives.

THEIR CONDITION AND WANTS.
The Mayors Suggestions.

At three O'clock .his afternoon his Honor
Mayor Fox transmitted to Councils his first
annual message. The unusual length of this
document prevents our publication of it in full,
but we give below all its material features. The
message reads as follows:--
To the Select and Common Councils Of the City OF
Philadelphia
In accordance with the requirements OF the act OF
the General Assembly OF the Commonwealth,
passed the I'd OF February, A. ID. 1854 known as the
Consolidation act, making the duty OF the Mayor,
once .uj least in each year, TO communicate TO
Councils general statement OF the condition of the
city, in relation to its government finances, and
improvements, and to recommend the adoption OF
such measures as he might deem eXpedent for its
security, health, cleanliness, and welfare here
with transmit this my first annual message, and, In
doing so, regard IL as our paramount duty to re-
cognize and acknowledge the goodness and mercy
OF Almighty God in His prOvdential OF our city,
In its exemption from pestilence, tumult and dis
order, and in keeping our people In a condition of
comparative comfort and cheerful in Industrious
occupation.
The late period at which the message is sent in is
to be attributed to the necessary delay incident to
the settling up OF the business operations OF the
several departments for the past year, and the time
and work since required to make report thereof to
this office, some OF which reports have reached me
only within the last few days.

debt of the city OF Philadelphia, from year to year,

Build up the System.

Strength evaporases fast at this season. This is
especially the case with all who live by the sweat
of their brow. From every pore Of the seive like
skin moisture exudes which contains tho ele-
rents of vitality. Thereby the blood is impoYer.
ished, the nerves relaxed, the muscles weakened,
the digestion impaired, the bowels disturbed, and
thu animal spirits depressed. The constant drain
that produces these effects cannot be arrested be-
cause it is due to the heat Of the atmosphere but
the loss of The lhe-sustainng elements can be sup
Piled by extra invigoration. Now therefore, is the
time to resort to Hostetters Stomach Bitters, the
most powerful and beathful Of all vegetable ton
les. Bo1g experience has proved that nothing else
will efficiently sustain and regulate the system,
when willing down under the double pressure Of
excessive heat and constant physical mental Ia
Dor. All persons who have been tempted to try
the local ''tonics' (so-called) which have been
started by sordd Spectators in almost every town
and village, with view Of 'turning penny" by
the credulity of the unwsry, know this to their
cost. Tt is wise maxim that says hold fast to
that which is good" Of the forty millions Of PEG

flood the land with adepreciated paper
currency. They have made a prison of
the Capitol for the punishment of those
who refuse to crafty their propensities
for intermeddling in private affairs. They
forced ten States out of The Union, and
refused them their constitutional right to
representation in both wings of the capi-.
tai until they complied with requirements
never before imposed upon free people.
They have controlled the elections in
eleven States at the point of the bayonet,
and have set the military power above,
and have authorized it to control the civil
authorities. Military satraps have removed
Governors, Judges, and other civil officers,
and filed their places with those ready to
fall down and worship them and Congress.
They converted the Federal Government
intoa poorhouse corporation for feeding
negroes upon the earnings of the whites.
They deprived the President of his pow
ers as 'Gommander-in-Chief of the
army" snd made him in reality militia
ny subordinate. They put it out of his
power "to see that the laws were faith
fully executed by stripping him Of his
constitutional authority to remove rogues
and thieves in office, and conferred uponthe
Senate the power to control him and pre-
vent his performing his official duty.
The action of Congress has brought upon
us the reign Of hatred, which destroys
the happiness of ali, and only aids their
efforts to continue in power. The Fede-
raj Government, instead of being loved
and respected throughout the Union, is
feared by an entire section as an instru-
ment of torture in the hands of an I'M
scrupulous usurping faction, struggling
for perpetual power. The government
contrived in 1857, has actually disappear
ed, and one representing the viii OF
| q majority in Congress, has succeeded it.
One by one, the powers of the State:
have been swallowed up, and the inter
ested promptings of Congress have taker
their places. The viii of Congress, ant
not the Constitution, must now be con
suited by those who seek to know wha
is permitted to be done. The reserved
powers of the States can only be aScer
tanned by consulting the records of Con
gress to learn what has been left for theil
enjoyment. What will remain for then
| year hence no one canknow, if not per
mitted to read the DEGREES of King eau
Gus. The government framed in 1877
has no actual existence at this time, bu'
is superseded by one whose principal Gle
ments are. the changing and uncertain
tie yindictive and selfish will of Con
gress, representing, not a whole Union
but only about two-thirds of the people
who compose it as it exists under thai

changes that have been wrought by the
Radicals, and to-day the people of one
third of the Union are without the hope
of country or at least free country.

brated "with thanksgiving, with festiv'
