Committee of the Second Branch.
JOHN S. BROWN,
ROBERT PURVIANCE,
VIM. r.. LEONARD,

Committee of the First Branch.
ReSotUed by both Branches Of The Cib Council
Of baltimore, That many of the present law s
of the State bear with peculiar hardship upon
the citizens of Baltimore, and are in their prac-
tical effects unequal and unjust, and contrary
to the Bill of Rights, and therefore ought to be
repealed.
Resotred, That it is the privilege and the du-
ty OF every citizen of Baltimore, to petition
Tor the repeal of these laws, and never to cease
his remonstrance until they are erased from
the statute books, or coniormed to the prnc-
pies of justice.
RESOLVED, That representation according to
population, is the creed of republicans; the
only true and safe basis of government; and
ought to be enjoyed by every American.
Resotrfd, That it be recommended to the
citizens of Baltimore, to hold ward meetings in
all the wards, for the purpose of selecting five
persons from each ward, to meet at some suita-
Bile time and place in convention, for the pur-
pose of devsing the best means of securing
the objects herein stated.
Resolved, That in view of the exrencies of
the State, and the taxes under which the peo-
pie are suffering, it is unwise, inexpedient and
unjust to give unnecessarily large salaries to
any officer of the State, and that all laws au-
thorizing such salaries ought to be repealed.
Resolved, That the members of the CITY
Council individually, and collectively, pledge
their best efforts in aid of the cause, and will
unite with their fellow citizens in all honorable
efferts to secure the great objects of Repeal
and Reform.

Report of the Agent Of state.

None but enemies to the people will deny their
right to scrutinizo the official acts of their public
servants. If. in that scrutiny, conduct be appa-
rent which should be corrected the people have
the power, through the ballot-boxes, and they
will, and they ought to make the correction. A
change is loudly called for in the Office of State
Agent. The law allows him salary Of on
thousand dollars year and his travelling expen-
ses when necessarily engaged in transacting bus
mess for the State. This is liberal-an ample
salary-the duties to DO performed, bear no COM
parison with those imposed on the Auditor and
Treasurer Of State.
A, the last session of the Legislature resolu-
ton was adopted by the House calling on the
State Agent to communicate detailed statement
of his travelling expenses, clerk hire, LAWYERS
fees. with the aggregate amount of all charges
against the State for such agency, during the
past year. In compliance with that resolution.
Mr.. Bright submitted report doc. No. IA, of
II. from which make the following extract:

boarding ut tho Astor House, city Of Now York
for whole year. ii would no. have cost him half
that sum. His business could not have required

1t may be that he paid out this amount of money,
in fact we do not doubt it-but. that is no. tho

to in the above extract, includes $22 3,l3, paid
o. S. Pitcher, for tino and expenses in going to
Georgia, and S77.25 10 Jesse ID. Bright for ex-
penses in going to Detroit. If the business of tho
State required those visits why they not
made by the Agent himself! Ifhis private pro-
fessioEal duties at homo would not permit him to
do it. is it RICH, that tho people should pay other
agents in addition to wha, they pay him.
Is it any excuse to say, (as no doabs will DO
said by those who do no, regard the source from
whence this money must eventually como) that
this is small ma,ter--"only a thousand dollars
or so!'
Oppressed as arc our peoplo with debt, even

they mon,entarily suspend their labor to wipe
