to these extra allowances. Only few
days ago, the bill to pay the widow OF
ose ph Nourse--which was for the pay
ment of q per cent, for disbursing
moneys while he was Register Of the
Treasury amounting to $33,582 70.
and whilst Mr.. Nourse wos,during most
of the time, receiving salary Of $2,40o
and $500 per annum, was under con-
sideration, and its merits were fully dis
cussed, and the gentleman could not
have misunderstood it; and yet, when
the yeas and nays were ordered he vo.

gave as a gratuity to Mrs. Harrison,
widow Of Gen. Harrison, $25,000. i

Of the man who has made many Of these
reckless charges. as
viii now, Mr.. Chairman, direct the
attention OF the committee 10 the man.
ner in which the gentleman has stated
these several items in his printed speech
in order 10 exhibit its unfairness, and
the injustice done TO Gen. Cass. One
Of the charges in his account, which up
to 1922, was allowed by Mr.. Calhoun,
runs thus in the gentleman's speech:
aFrom October 9, 1913, TO July 81,
| 1881; $500 per annum, extra salary;"
when by referring to Doc. lI2, we find
| instead Of being for 'sextra salary" it
| was, ssto cover his expenses for Office
rent, clerk hire, fuel, stationery" &c.
In noticing the item for making treat.
| les, &C., at Greenville, Saginaw, and
Saut Ste. Marie, &c.. he closes with
these words-"Fifly days preparing
lbefore and after treaiy," leaving it ma
liked and uninielligible, and conveying
/ the impression that General Cass had
really put SO much into his pocket, with
out having performed any service to
deserve il; when the language used in
Doc. No. 6, from which he copies is
this: ssAnd for fifty days ertra senvices;
/ previous and subsequent to the afore-
| said treaties, in preparing for and car

rying into effect the several stipuIations
thereof" explaining this part Of the
item satisfactorily. As the rules Of
order will not permit me to state why
he has resorted TO the Procustean sys.
tenn here,l leave it for you to determine
what inference might be drawn from il.
In his second statement, which appears
to be general, he asserts that "fifteen
hundred per annum extra salary (the
same TO which have before alluded,)
from 1873 to 1881, nearly eighteen
years, was .'paid in 1885," which was
years after the services were rendered.
Now, the documents and the accounts
stated, sho W that the several amounts
were paid in 1922, and thereafter when
ever the accounts of General Cass were
audited, there was no postponement or
refusal Of payment, and no extraordi.
nary delay. The gentleman from Penn
syIvania has inserted in his speech a
particular and general statement Of
these items of acc cunt, and in his addi.
ton Of one of his columns Of figures he
has committed an error of more than
four thousand dollars; and it will be
seen, that if he had entered the items
properly, and made his calculation cor
rectly, it would have satisfied him that
the imputation Of General Cass's charg.
ing twice Tor the same item was with
out foundation.
MI. Chairman, my time will not per-
NIT me longer to dwell on this portion
Of his speech, which form the adroit
manner in which it is drawn up, is cal
culated and perhaps designed to mislead
and deceive the people. If such was
not his purpose, why were not all the
items of account set down as they ap.
peared in the official documents from
which they purported to have been ia.
ken? Did he act upon the maxim that
"alI's fair in polltics?' l::should be glad
to throw the mantle of charity over it,
but the circumstances are so strong,
that am in doubt whether it can be as.
cribed to anything else than a disposi.
tion to pervert the truth.
Thus, Mr.. Chairman, have endeav.
ored as briefly as the nature of the case
would permit, to reply to this charge,
whether successful or not,I submit most
cheerfully to the candor and good sense
of the committee.
