THE PERRYSBURG JOURNAL.

Gy- BY report of Il committee of the SEN
ate OF Ohio, 1t appears that the affairs of the
state treasury have baen managed in an ex
tremely loose manner, in consequence Of
which heavy loss is almost inevitably GER
tain The virtues of the sub treasury and
hard money have been greatly extolcd by the
leaders of the anti bank party, but what will
they say of the conduct Of Mr.. Breslin, iate
treasurer of state, a democrat of the straight
est sect, brought up at the foot of M9dary {?
He has loaned and deposited the funds of the
state in insolvent banks to such an extent
that on the 5th of March last. be was de-
faulter to the amount Of $2l2432. Here are
some of his loans and deposits: To the City
Bank, Cincinnati, (ailed,) $79 8ll.95 to
the Com. Bank Of Toledo, failed.) $24 927.03
to Dlniel Beckel, banker Dayton, Called, J
$50, ,705. .49; to w. w. Cones & Co., Cincin-
natl, (owners Of the broken Bank of kanaw-
ha,) $l7 ,799 total, $203, 1924. II, besides
interest. The committee say that there is
reason to believe that Mr.. Bresin was part
ner in the broken Bunk of Kanawha, and
used the moneys Of the state to put that
swindling concern in operation and give it
credit and currency with the public. In ad.
dition to this, itappears from the report that
both the late and present treasurer have ben.
and probably are yet, interested in the Sen,
eca County Bank, where there are yet, so far
as we are informed, $I17O49. 49 of the state
funds. A quo warranto is pending against
this bank for an alleged forfeiture Of charter.
These facts were elected BY only a partial
examination, and rendered it highly impor.
tant that the Legislature should appoint ID
committee to investigate fully during the
summ3r the condition of the treasury and
justified the passage Of a law prescribing
the duties of the auditor and treasurer OF
state, relative to the receipt, safe keeping
and disbursement of the public moneys, and
accounting THEREFOR
