Colonial Audit ORICP. May. 13.1843. My Lortia,—We hove the honour to submit our report, 2;deo lot•ot of Mr. Theodore Hook, to your Lord .V so ,tea Mr. penes. repeated sell ealv us the Ittilersigraph of ear report of the 3d of Jaly, 1819. Mr. Hook has alleged, as a part of oar want of can dour, that when Me. Allan, by his suicide, gave , tio most remarkable practical evidence in bis fa vour, we " in that particular," discover that he was in sane. Your Lordships would be led to infer, from this ex pression, that our conviction of bis insanity was derived from the act of suicide alone, that we bad no other proof, and that Mr. Honk was not aware of any other proof to establish it. Yet that decisive letter of M. AHan to linters, (fall to which we have referred, comes from Me. Hook himself, and is among the documents which he traasinitted to Earl Ilathurst. Mr. Hook further observes, that Mr. Allen is repro tented by this Board, as • gentlemen entitled to the credit of being a most correct, diligent, and taithfal public servant, 'holies detected some great delinquency of his. To this assertion, we have only to refer to our report,. as • positive contradiction. Mr. Hook proceeds to ob that the next charge against him arises out of a supposed differesee in value between specie and paper; and that this Board has al leged that Jpeertaio "exchanges made by Meander the order of Government, he must have pat inhibit' pocket a difference of eight per cent." We havoalleged, and proved, that the difference was! , not supposed, but real, and Mr. Hook admitted it. We have not alleged, that in certain exchanges made by him under the order of Government, he put into his, pocket the difference of eight per cent. ;" lost we have alleged , that after giving him credit for all payments and excitants made by order of Government, a great quantity of specie had disappeared. and paper bail been sebstituted in its place Neither have we alleged that "be has rocketed the difference." how it appeared we have no direst proof. His evasive answers, and fictitious returns, have thrown a cloud and mystery over the trans actions. :We have, however, stated that for the loss to Goverment, arising from fraud ur negligence, he is re sponsible. Mr. Hoot it accuses this Board of a suppression of the tenth on this point. because it did not specifically re fer to that part of the letter of Governor Farquhar re specting the exchange of paper fur specie, which stated that there was " no tiiffTrence between the value of spe cie and colonial paper." He then proceeds to observe, that the letter might have been founded in fact, or lug (Plied by financial expediency; and further, that it is a flagrant suppression of truth on the part of the Audit Hoard, not to have stated that the very order eon tain,l ifs itself an official and authentic contradiction of the c;iarge. 4 Of what charge, my Lords, does it con tain a contradiction? Of the charge that the specie was abstracted (for that was the charge)? No, to Lords, to this it does nut not advert: but it contains that, %latch Mr. Hook himself says may "have been founded in fact, or suggested by political expediency." But, says Fr. Hook, in his letter of the lath of March. " during that period it was the uhject of the Colonial Goverment (whose policy I am not authorised to re mark upon) to maintain the.paper currency at its nomi nal value; and though in the purchase of hills, Sic. there slid in point of fact exist a difference of $ per cent. (or thereabout.) between the value of specie and paper, &c." Here there is the admission of Mr. Honk himself to that, which, indeed, without his admission, the records of est, the tenders end the contracts for bills, distioctly prove. It mild not, therefore, he necessary advert to a letter framed on an unrolled...ft supposition as to this point. The het of the difference vales stands :undoubted, mad Is admitted by Mr. Hook bita. for town with sash a high character for milling, sod a - short ki• time since so handsomely dispowd of by Shin s . of the 12th alt., transmitted to.idso Mr. Harrison's the John ft" I tt r f the 24th 1 fighter (Josh.
