FRIDAY MORNING, JAN. 23, 1874.
Governor's Message—conlttded.
company. Any refusal to receive
these bills, I found, would involve in
convenience and loss to the State.
Many of the patrons of the road
who held these bills notified me that
they would withdraw their patronage
. unless the bills were received for pas
senger fare and for freight. Many
of the employes and laborers, also,
who had received bills for services,
threatened to abandon the road un
less the bills were redeemed. In
quiry into the business of the road
satisfied me that its earnings for
some time to come would not be
much in excess of its current expen
ses, and therefore that the State
could not lose largely by receiving
the bills in the business transactions
of the road. The public interest re
quired that the road should be oper
ated so as not to involve the neces
sity of defraying its expenses out of
the public treasury. Believing that,
to make the road self-sustaining, it
would be necessary to take the bills,
I directed the Receiver not to refuse
to accept them for freight and pas
senger earnings ; and that the bills,
when thus received, should be can
celled, and held by him as vouchers,
to be used in the settlemet of his
account with the State.
After taking possession of the road
I determined that it would not be
proper for me then to exercise the
authority vested in me to dispose of
it by sale. I had reason to hope the
company would be able to make an
an-angement to relieve the State and
resume possession of the property.-
Acting upon this impression, I made
as little change as possible in the
practical management of the road.
There has boen little reduction in the
workiflg force on the road, and the
track and other property have been
kept in good condition. On account
of the recent financial troubles in the
country the company seport to me
that they will not be able to make
any arrangement for the relief of the
State, In consequence of this, it will
become necessary for the General
Assembly to make provision, at the
present session, for the payment of
interest upon the company’s bonds
for which the State is liable.
It is claimed that the amount of
these bonds is $2,550,000. Of this
amount, $000,000 were indorsed un
der the act approved October 27,
1870. Therefis a doubt in the -public
mind as to the validity of the last
mentioned indorsements. Informa
tion in my possession induces me to
believe that a large amount of the
bonds bearing this indorsement has
never been legally negotiated by the
company. The bonds which have not
been so negotiated are still the pro
perty of the company, and under the
order of seizure ought to be surren
dered to the Receiver. No payment
of the principal or interest of these
bonds should be made until the Leg
islature is fully satisfied that the pub
lic faith is pledged therefor.
The net earnings of the road since
its seizure,as reported by the Receiver,
amount to $27,991 59. The earnings
of the road have been derived, almost
exclusively, from its local business.
This has resulted from the fact that
it has not been practicable to make
any satisfactory arrangement for
through freights with connecting
roads. The Receiver estimates that
the net earnings of the road the
present year will probably amount to
$60,000. fc
STATE AID TO RAILROADS.
The history of this company illus
trates the impolicy of granting the
aid of the State to works of internal
improvement. The road was com
menced under very favorable aus
pices, and it was claimed that it pos
sessed advantages which would
render it self-sustaining. In less
. than oight years after the aid was
given, however, the company has
become unable to meet the interest
upon its bonds, and a practical addi
tion of several millions of dollars to
the public debt is the result.
There are numerous charters upon
our statute book, containing provis
ions for the grant of State aid to
railroad companies. In some instan
ces these companies have not organ
ized, so as to claim their chartered
privileges. * Iu other instances Dis
organizations have taken blace, but
no work has been done. Some, and
perhaps all, of these enterprises
would, if completed, be suefulto the
public; but it may be confidently
asserted, that no one of them pos
sesses merit sufficient to warrent its
construction at the public expense/
It will hardly be found practicable
to establish thecredit of the State up
on a solid basis so long as it is inthe
power of private corporations or (in
dividuals, by complying with the com
paratively easy conditions prescribed
in these charters, to add countless
millions to our public debt. I there
fore recommend the passage of a
measure repealing the aid feature in
every charter in the State, where
the same has not actually become a
vested right in the company claiming
it.
NORTH AND SOUTH RAILROAD COMPANY.
In December, 1872, the North and
South Railroad Company reported
that the first section of twenty miles
of its road had been completed, as
required by its charter. I caused a
thorough examination of the work
and of the affairs of the company to
be made, byi commissioners appoint
ed for that purpose, and by a civil
engineer. I also caused reports to
be made by the President and Direcr
tors of the company, showing the
amount which had been invested in
the road by private persons: and
having become satisfied that the
company, under its charter, was en
titled thereto, I placed the endorse
ment of the State upon its bonds to
the extent of twelve thousand dollars
per mile for the twenty miles com
pleted as aforesaid.
The length of the main line of the
road between the termini, is one
hundred and thirty miles. The
length of additional road graded, is
forty miles. The sum reported as
invested in the company is $680,-
196 73. Of this the sum of $420,-
147 92 has been applied to the sec
tion of twenty • miles already com
pleted. In this amount are includ
ed the expenses of survey, loca
tion and equipment.
CONCLUSION.
The year just ended has been one
of disaster to the material welfare of
a large portion of our people. As those
disasters could not be prevented, so
they connot be cured by simple leg
islation. The remedy for many of
the evils of the times lies within our
selves. Is far, however, as appro
priate legislation can avail, I desire
to say, it will be irn r agreeable duty
to co-operate with the General As
sembly in all proper efforts to ame
liorate the condition of our common
constituents. It is our highest duty, !
as it will doubtless be our chifest j
A Sad Record.
I was in father Taylor’s study talk
ing with him about his eventful life.
We were discussing some features of
temperance question, when he took
down from a shelf a plain pocket Bi
ble and asked me to examine it. On
the fly-leaf was written: “ , from
his mother.” Turning over the pages
I observed that in some places they
were torn, blistered and stained with
blood. I asked for the history. He
replied: “Some years ago I was sent
for in haste to visit ayoungjnan who
was dangerously ill. I went to the
house. In a miserable garret I
found a lad, pale, weak and faint
from the loss of blood. He had
been attacked with severe hemorr
hage, and knew that he v, r as soon to
die; that he had been leading a life
of dissipation, had become a slave to
drink, and had been brought by it to
his present condition. ‘My mother
was a godly woman,’ he said. ‘She
instructed me faithfully .prayed for me
tenderly, and tried to make me a
good man.
I left home and came to Boston to
make my own living. I intended to
do right, and follow my mother’s
counsels. Her last gift to me was
this Bible. At first 1 read it daily
and attended worship every Sabbath;
but I fell into bad company, and grad
ually went estray, until I lost all my
, . t ii , ,i manliness and become a wretched
pleasure, to do all we can to promote drunkard . p Lave burst a blood ves-
the general welfare, advance the pub-1,
lie credit, enforce the laws, and pro- j
tect and defend the rights and liber- I
ties of the people.
James M. Smith.
'O’Connell and Mrs. Moriarty.
Tne following war of words, which
occurred between the Liberator and
a termagant of Dublin, will bear a
revival. It was done on a wager be
tween O’C. and his Mends, that he
could make this woman, who could
outface all opponents with her vitu
peration, lose her temper (and this
was the point of the wager,) without
his using an indecent word. It was
a complete success.
. ‘What’s the price of your Aval king
sticks, Mrs. What’s your name?”
‘Moriarty, sir, is me name, and I’m
not ashamed of it; and one and six
pence is the price of the stick. It is
chape as dirt, so it is.’
‘One and sixpence for a walking ;
stick that cost you twopence? Why, j
you’r eno better than an imposter.’ \
‘Twopence, granny, and imposth- j
er in your own teeth! Cut your stick, !
you cantankerous jacknips!’
‘Keep a civil tongue in your head,
3’ou old diagonal.’
‘Stop your jaw, or I’ll make you go
faster nor you came.’
‘Don’t be in a passion, you ancient
radius. Anger will only wrinkle your
beauty.’
‘Be this an’ that, if you go on wid
your impudence, I’ll tan your hide,
though it’d be a pity to dirty my fists
on you ’
sel and am dying. For God’s sake
and my mother’s pray for me.’ I left
him in great distress. The next day
I found him dead. He was laying
with his book clasped to his lips. It
was wet with tears and blood, and
torn with his convulsive agonies.—
Some years after I made a temper
ance speech in Philadelphia. I re
lated the incindent, and held up the
book as I did so. There was a stir
in the audience. A poor woman
with a sad, heart-broken expression, ;
arose and tottered to the platfrom. !
She implored me to let her have the j
book. The stillness of the room was :
terrible. Every eye was fixed upon ■
her. With trembling hands she turn- i
ed to the fly-leaf- then, with a scream, |
fell fainting to the floor. She had |
read the name of her own son, and |
for the first time knew of his sad |
fate.”

OF EVERY
DESCRIPTION,
and-twenty, had returned from his
Here Biddy poured out a torrent of travels, when his father bade him
select from the daughters of the
words, too transcendental for our
pages.
“Easy now, easy now; don’t choke
yourself with fine language, you
whiskey-drinking parallelogram!”
“What’s that you call me, you
murtherin’ villain?”
“I’ll call you what you are—a par
allelogram—and there’s not a judge
or a jury in Dublin that would say it’s
a libel.”
“Oh! tare an ouns, you ruffin! to
call an hon est woman a parabeilygrum
to her face. I’m none of your para-
bellygrums, you thief's breed.”
“Oh! not you, indeed! I suppose
the next thing will be to deny that
there is an hypothenuse concealed
in your house ?”
“That’s a lie, for you! I never had
such a thing in me house, you swind
ler!”
“Oh! you can’t deny the charge,
you miserable sub-multiple of a du
plicate ratio!”
Here poor Biddy gasped for breath,
and her antagonist improved the oc
casion.
“While I have a tongue, I’ll give
you the benefit of it, you inimitable
periphery! Look at her boys! There
she stands, a convicted perpendicu
lar in petticoats. 'She is trembling
with guilt to the very extremity of
her corollaries. Ah! you’re found
out, you rectilineal antecedent and
equiangular b a s k e t-w o m a n, you
abandoned similitude of the bisection
of a vortex!”
The tongue was struck dumb, but
the hands retained their powers.
Catching up a sauce-pan, she would
have revenged on her foreman’s nose
the offenses of his lips, but like a
worsted hero before Ilium, he min
gled in the throng.
You Will be Wanted.—Take
courage, my lad. What if you are
but a humble, obscure apprentice—
a poor neglected orphan—a scoff
and a by-word for the thoughtless
and gay, who despises virtue in rags,
because of its tatters. Have you
an intelligent mind, untutored though
it may be ? Have you a virtuous
aim, a pure desire and an honest
heart ? Depend upon it, som^ of
these days 3-011 will be wanted. The
time may* be long deferred—you may
be grown into manhood, and you
may even reach your prime ere the
call is made ; but virtuous aims, pure
desires and honest hearts are too
few not to be appreciated—not to
be wanted. Your virtue shall not
always hide you as a mantle—ob
scurity shall not always vail you from
the multitude. Be. cliivalric in your
combat with circumstances. Be ever
active, however small may be your
sphere of action. It will surely en- j
large with every moment, and your I
influence will have continued in- j
creasement. 1
friendly house the one he would have
for a wife. John was a dutiful son,
and his heart was whole, and as the
maidens were all fail- to look upon
he accepted the situation; determined
to master it if possible.
John spent several evenings in the
company of the 3-oung ladies, and it
was difficult to decide which was the
most charming, though his fanc3’
rested most lingeringly upon the
3-oimgest—not that she was the
handsomest, but she appeared the
most sensible.
One day John was invited to din
ner, and, in advance of the family,
he made his way into the hall and
threw a broom upon the floor, direct
ly across the passage to the dining
room. By and b}’ summons sound
ed for the meal, and John watched
for the result. The eldest of the
daughters stepped over the broom
loftly; the second went round; the
third gave it a kick from her path;
the fourth gave it an extra kick; the
fifth—the youngest—stopped and
picked the broom up and took it to
the far corner of the hall and set it
carefully out of the wa3 r .
And John selected the meek-eyed,
fair haired maiden who thus stood
the test; and he never had occasion
to regret his choice. She proved to
be a wife who looked well to the ways
of her household, and her heart had
no lack of faith and love.
