by ti. late Loco Foco authorities to the supposed
amount of So 600 bearing interest nj 10 per
cen,. The money bsing raised for detcaying the
contingent expense of=the Legislature; but no re-
cord was kept OF the names OF persons to whom
The Bonds wer. issued, or Of the services tor
which the money borrowed was paid; or, indeed
/ of the amount Governor Doty thinks the hold
er5 must look to Congress for their pay, as the
Territorial Government not authorised To CON
tract q debt without the consent OF Congress.
The following paragraph from the Governor y

The Legislative Council on the 18th ut., pssse
resolutions calling upon the Governor for the mum

Gov. Dotv replied in a brief Message, that ne de

concerning removals, and declines comphanc
