the letters Of the Secre tary Of the Treasury, ~
contained ir House document No. 2g7. These
fifteen cases are reported specially, examples
merely Of the manner in which tho president Of
The United States and the Secretary Of The Trees
ury have executed their laws in respect to the
public money and other property Of tho United
States in the hands Of this class Of public officers
and in respect to their official duty.
The law provides for the appointment by the
Executive, with the concurrence Of the Senate;
Of a receiver OF public moneys at each Of the
places respectively where the public and private
sales of the lands are TO be made, who shall give
bond with approx red security, for the faithful dis
charge of his trust; who shall fransmif, rstAin
thirty days, in case OF public sale, and quarterly
case of private SALE an account Of all the pub.
Tic moneys by him received, to the Secretary of
the Treasury and to the registers Of the land Of.
fees. as the case may be. He 10 allowed SAL
ary of FIVE numbered dollars per annum, and .
commission Of one per centum on tho moneys
rcceiv ed but his salary for any year shall
not exceed $4,000. The Secretary Of tho Treas
cry may allow TO the several receivers OF the pub
lie money at the several land Offices, reasonable
compensation for transporting 10 and depositing
such moneys in any bank any other place Of
deposire tina, may from time to time be designas.
ed by the Secretary Of tho Treasury for that pur-
pose. He is also authorized to prescribe ssch fur
tier regulations in the manner OF keeping books
and accounts by the several officers in tho laud
Officer, as to him may appear necesscry and prop
rr. 1t is made his duty, nj least once in every
year, to cause the books Of the officers Of tho
land Offices to be examined, and the balance Of
public money s in the hands Of the several receiv-
to be ascertaIned.
The foregoing synopsis Of the law relative to
land receivers, and the correspondence with
portion Of those who have proved defaulters and
faithless to their trusts, submitted, without
further comment than that the facts and circum-
stances here exhibited show such q derelictinn Of
duty on the part Of the Executive department A.
calls loudly for searching examination into this
branch of the public service, and for a thorough
reform.
The practice which the foregoing correspond
ence exhibits, of retaining men in Office after
gross and repeat ted violations of law in keeping
and using the public moneys for private specula-
ton, and the character Of the correspondence IT.
self, bat too clearly point to the inference that
uch officers were retained in place because they
possess d extensive political influence, and were
Useful and active partisans. Whether such mall
constitutes official corruption in

lima ties the conduct which has been referred 10,

PARr5 FACTS CONNECTED WITH THE
FOREGOING DEFALCATIONS, AND
DEEMED MATERIAL TO DEyELOPE
THEIR TRUE CHARACTER.

|
In conclusion, the committee cannot fosbear re-
marking, that, during the whole investiga ton,
they have not found the case ~ which the laws,
rs they already erist, do not apply, or in which
they defective. Tho permanent provisions
of the laws constitute every necessary check up
on collectors, receivers and disbursers Of public
money; and tho checks which, by law, have been
and may be created, in the discretion Of the En-
ecutve, have only to be attended 90 and applied
by those whose duty il is to superintend the
execution Of the laws, 10 ensure faiihfulness and
detect derelictiOns fefalcations IN public Off
GERS.
Indeed, in all the new rceomme nda,iohS which
have been proposed by the President or tho Sec
rotary of the Treasury, the Committee has found
either what already exist, what might have
always been prescribed and enforced in tho form
of Treasury regulations, and which, IT enforced
would have prevented the late defalcations; and
these new recommendations eau, indeed, be re-
garded many proofs Of what regulations il
respect the late deaU!ng collectors, recsivsrs,
&c, have been hitherto wholly neglected by tho
prescn, Executive and heads of Departments.
