let the final question be taken when il would that the
vote oil the Senate would present much with
the views taken by the Committee So much as to the

man from Georgia had objected TO the printing Of an ndd
tiona number Of copies Of the report he did not
think that the We've of the Secretary Of the Trea-
sury were fairly stated in IT, and that its conclusions were
not logically drawn He thought that the Senator from
Georgia was in the Senate when the printing Of 5000
pies Of the Presidents to the Bank bill was ordered
and made no objection TO the motion.
