 By an Act of Congress passed atfsl,,.A session. tioa were appropriated to coos,lsa l1s and print the Laws of this Territory ll' n15o the ''direction and superintendence ss ofsss2 [ Governor" "
 The necessity ofa compilation ofthe IsaI. of this Territory was apparent to all-Tbsl Judges find it difficult, in many of the em0 ties, where they preside, to procure the Iaw,I upon which theyag5 to act.
 Is soon as the Act of Congress. masprI the appropri 4tion, had passed and was m5. lished, 1t became the duty of the Goyernor Ri carry itinto effect, without delay; and tol lrr.l nish, for public use. as many copies. welI printed and bound. as could reasonably he ey . 1 1ected for the sun appropriated.
 The Governor aeted promptly in the per- fornanee of this duty. As soon as tie law reached hifa he made enquiries as to the best plan ofhaying the work we'll done, on the best terms, and ih the shortest time.
 4 E the law devolyed on him the duty of "directiag snd soperiateading. the work, heH auppose5 that 1t would be advisable toe 5loy me, inasmuch as was thought to have atl least q respectable knowledge ofthe Laws of the Tesftary. He, therefore, proposed to give me tbe job of printing the Laws, piovi-HH ted, ] would take the trouble of compiling and arFzngiBc them under his direction snd supeFintend9nce, and with his aid, WitaOat increasing the charge oyer and above that for printing and binding--ths binding nass be inferior to that ofGeyer's Digest, to which proposition ! acceded.
 James M'Campboll, Esq. an s0ID bAW- IF, of Jackson county, ii ii sliis sliis Territory, had been eng aged for several years in pTepar- ing Digest ofour Laws, and applied to the Governor, after he had engaged me to dothe work, to give him. some share or employment in the business. The Governor, believing that the work prepared by Mir. M'Campbel, though rot correct in every particular, would afford much aid and hasten the compilation b be made, urged me to give him some sl'rs in the JOB, as the labor and attention he had bestowed on the subject were entitled to some consideration. At the Governors earnest request, and considering that would be relieved from great portion of the trouble of preparing L. tae compilation for the press, l made Mir. w. Campbell liberal offer-one with Waleaa was entirely satisfied, and he lmnledlaisls commenced a cooperation with Ire m lhe prosecution of the work.
 The printing is now nearly halt done ana will he finished ina few weeks. The .ioVef' ernor considers himself responsible TOT ul' faithful execution of the power eonneeo U him, and hope that the people vii nave T. '. cause of complaint when the compilation i' completed. ...
 The Governor insisted from the beginning that he must have, for public use, at leas. , @A hundred copies. Some addition to tna. nun nl Der will be ftarnished--how many, VIII usp'D' on the cost of binding. Having thus briefly stated the nlannsl i.r ,l which the Governor has acted on tie my, w. tant trust confded to him, now call on al, laI Woodruff to say, whether or not ns s TO'r, ' om have compiled, printed, and bound ,l sno ;rto, n+ on terms more favourable to the Pa1llo 'ns' ls {, est than those above stated!
