A Coon Htxr-Ths 6taae Tres
urer ays in his report:
Some Of the officers of the Gtats, %
whom the Reports Of the Suppress
Court, and other books, have been fnsn.
ished. have become possessed with the
extraordinary idea. that those book.
were their individual property, and in
some cases have refused TO deliver them
to their successors in Office. Ihave in.
structed them that those books were
furnished them in their official, and
not their individual capacity. That
it was not to Mr.. Smith but the Court
over which Mr.. Smith happened to
preside, for the time being, that those
books were furnished. Ihave informed
these officers that those books are still
the property of the State, and distrib-
uhed to officers Of the State charged
with particular and special duties. and
that their successors were entitled to
their enjoyment and use, as their sue
ccssors would be in like manner. 1t
is for the wisdom Of the General As
selnbly to determine whether any law is
necessary to force u return Of those
boaks, by these rceusant cx-o6cials.
