the close of lhe session (Icss than month }
has necessarily restricted them within mar
row limits--alike in respect 10 the number
of cases and TO the number cf Witnesses ex-
amined.
Several cases of fran d and gross in pror-
priety alleged agains; rsons in the employ
ment ofthe government, are before the COM
mttee. For want of ;ime, however, only
two have teen So far investigated as to at
ford any definite development Of their char"
acter, and the examination of them has not
been completed. Withoutundcrtaken. there
fore, to make any elaborate report Of what
they have done, the committee beg leave tc
submit the testimony they have taken in the
two cases referred to, and ask that it be prin'
ted. And believing that the public interest
will be protected and promoted by fur'hcl
investigation Of those two cases, and many
others they believe to exist, they asa leave
to prosecute theirinquircs during the recess
and to resume their sittinys at the next ses

The time has arrived when the mere

independent action--the die is cast, the fu'
bicon past, and it is not now question
merely of Whig and Democratic rule-bn
of Union or Disuuion--of peace and pros
perity or anaehy and confusion, darkness

our stand with the Democratic party, and
now call on you our countrymen by every
high and holy consideration--by everything

The Galphinisns Of tho Wings


1t will be rccolIected, that The Galphin
ism Of the whig leaders at Washington, be-
came SO notorious that a committee was ap
pointed that exposed the first and original
Galphin swindle. Another was recently ap-
pointed upon the Garlner fraud, and Gen.
Samuel Houston obtained the appointment
of a commitlcc, short time before the nd
ournment Of Congress, to investigate vari-
ous frauds and rijlanous transactions con-
nected with the Executive Departments at
Washington. This committee entered upon
the discharge Of their duties some weeks
ago, but owing to the protractcd sessions of
the Senate and the nearness Of the adjourn
mcnt but little could be effected. Sufficient
testimony, however, was taken to show that
gross frauds had been committed, and nc
doubt others Of more henious character
will be developed during the recess. Mir
Houston made tie report hereto annexed
and moved the printing Of the testimony
Objections, however, were made by WhiG
) Senators, and the motion to print had to liz
over This is the best of evidence that thc
wings d .re NOT face The music and have tht
testimony printed. In fact il appeared tt
be we'll settled matter, that the system 0
fraud aId plunder, known by the term Gal
phnism. has been practised in ever sine
the incoming of the Taylor administration
The Galphin and Gardner frauds are II"
isolated cases, bu: only two Of the larges
of a system. OF plunder, that seems to ru'
through almost every bureau of the Govern
inent.
Mr.. Houstop, from the selccs committee
reported as follows:
The select committe appointed by tn
Senate on the 9Th instant to investgat
a frauds bribery, &c, entered at once upo
c their duties, by calling witnesses befor
/. them, and nstituting careful inquiry int
e sever al cases of alleged or supposed fraud

To see which one would run the best,

Old Fillmore first came on the track,
He did that, he did that;
ALL Seward then had 10 stand back,

And Grecly had his breecnes patched,

For several days they held the field.
They did that, they did that;
Elch one resolved to never yield,
They did that on that day;
When suddenly they heard grcan,

They were shat on that day.
They battIed long, they battled loud,

Then old Bill Seward played the fool,
He did that he did that;
And went for Scott, the Galphin's tool,

Then Join our ranks, come one and all,
We will that we will that:
And help to crush die GaIphin bail,
We will that on that day.
