C.Rp.-Noticing sundry articles in the ne wspapers
tending. perhaps to implicate Messrs Atwood Co,
of NewYork, as improperly receiving certain stocks
of the State of Ohio, or unjustfably withho!ding
them from the State, deem it an act OF simple justice
10 that house say that they received and held those
stocks as security for actual and bona de advances OF
money to the Treasurer of the State, aud have
invariably manifested the utmost willingness to sur
render them to the State upon payment OF such al"
vances The advances have been refueded to them,
and the stocks have been returned to tae State. In
the adjustment and settlement of these transactions
with Messrs. Atwood 4 Co., their conduct has been
not only very fair and honorable but cautious and
liberal. They deserve thanks rather than censure-
