SECURITIES OF IOHN PRESTON


We give the short Sketch of Debate in the II.

toms Securities. LII the decision of the Court A.
gainst which they pray relief, be lo1o it is hard
law indeed; and well may il be said, that sln,n,u,n
JUS is in this case stnina injuriG. A series OF
deialcations is made by public oficer-every dol
Jar OF these had been taken from the Treasury be
toIe Inc last securities became bound for his acts;
yet il is held, that these men are TO nav for prior
deiacaiions; because either prior Securities had
oeen taken or because they insolvent and haze
fe't them the bag to hold. Is this Just? Is il cor
rect to make good the public Golfers at the expense
oil the purses OF innocent citizens?-The Petition.
ers appeal to the justice and wisdom of the Legis
iature for relief against such decision-and we
nope they willnot appeal in vain. IL they are
determined not to release their holds; not atogeth
er 10 remit the penalty Of the bond; it can do no
INJURY TO the just pretensions of the State, TO let
these mel have a new trial
We understand, that one Of the Speakers has
fallen into one mistake on this subject which, we
know, has not been confined to himself We are
informed, mat no part Of Preston's property was
permitted TO be moved out of the State, which the
Securities had RICH, or the power to detain.

inequality of such ratio, there is no faith in arith
