We have written a hurried sketch
that does poorly cover the ground,
and would only add word about the
view from the location of Wild Goose
Farm, in bend of the Potomac, with
the Blue Ridge stretching Northward
and Southwark on one side, and far
off on the other the Alleghanies loom
in sight.
Many visitors and friends from the
cities and neighboring States call on
Mr.. S.. and are shown around with
evident pride and pleasure. We can
assure our friends of the press hear
ty welcome at Wild Goose Farm, and
an enjoyable visit.
The name Wild Goose Farm -
may seem strange, suggestive only of
local origin, such as the adjoining
Potomac on which sport wild and do
nestle geese, or of the artificial lake
itself with its aquatic inhabitants.
But it is derived from neither. Many
years ago some of the Shepherd fami-
ly were discussing the naming of the
estate, when suggestion was made
that 9 Wild Goose Farm" would be
appropriate inasmuch as the Shep-
herds resembled the Wild Goose in
the habit of spending part of the year
in the North and part in the SOUTH
a significant derivation that would
apply to the present as well as to the
past. The title is not only in name
but has been emblemiZed in gilded
swans with outstretched wings on all
the buildings, varying in size accord
ing to the structure, from the swift
winged diver over the arbor trellis
to the full grown Swan perched upon
the barn-top vane.

Gestleasen ofths Senate and General Assem-
be-:
In obedience to the requirements OF the
Constitution, herewith send you my second
!, M pug message, showing the condition OF the
FITS various departments and interests,
and recommending such measures as l deem
expedient.
THE FINANCES.
I recommended in my inaugural address
that State policy should be established
which would " forever obviate the necessity of
raising any money from our people by State
taxi and pointed out various methods by
which that result could be accomplished. The
Legislature by the act of April 10, 1854, u.
1854. D. 1922 and the act Of April Is. 1884,
q. 1884, p. 1927 adopted methods, by which
increased revenue has been secured from cor
porations, which will forever render State
tax unnecessary under an honest and economl-
cal administration of public affairs.
The reports of the Comptroller and Irea-
surer present in detail the financial condition
Of the State for the fiscal year ending October
81. 1885. During that year the State fund re-
ceiyed from sources other than loans and bal
ances on hand the following sums:
