TO the State, and a iiill grealef depreciation
/ bf public morals.
Since the examination Of the Treasury de.
partment by a Commission created for thai
purpose about nine yeats ago, no careful ex.
animation Of that department. appears to have
been made. Years have gone by since there
was even critical comparison Of the books,
accounts and vouchers Of the Auditor and
Treasurer Of State. Thus the great object
OF making the Auditors Office complete
check on that Of the Treasurer has for
years been rendered entirely abortive. This
state OF things has resulted more from defec.
lice legislation thln from neglect Of duty on
the past Of the officers Of State; and il is con-
fidently hoped that the legislation OF the pres.
ent session OH this subject will provide
remedy for it. Even if ordinary legislative
duties did not occupy most Of the time and
attention ofthe members OF the Committee,
the entire period of the session would hardly
suffice to make such an examination. This
coDsideration-ihe necessity Of the inyesti-
galion-the great Inconvenience and epor-
nous expense Of keeping the General As.
sembly in session to await the action of this
aud one or two other investigating Commit
tees, form one OF the strongest arguments in
favor Of holding an adj jurned session of the
present General Assembly.
To carry out the views thus expressed, the
Committe report the two following resolu-
tiuns which they recommended for adoption.

fail to pay part Of the balance due rom the
late Treasurer with tie understanding OF ex-
pectation that payment would not bsdemand-
ed until the exigencies Of the Treasury
should imperiously require il.
The Committee are Of the opinion that

Of oil such paper in the Treasury, or al least
for acceptance; and ss most OF il is drawn

dorsed over TO the Commissioners Of the

presented for acceptance and payment. To
accomplish this purpose, the committee here
with report a resolution, which they recon.

Who behold il him the man Of iron will and generous
impulses patriot who loves his country and the
soldier without blot on his name. The South may
ven view him with pride. for be il an honor to her
and an ornament to her annals. In times of need
she will know where to find old Chepultepec, and
whether on the battlefield in the councils Of the
nation, her cause will be safe in his hands, Glorious
old man!
It may be said Of him that he belongs neither to
the party of Cesar nor to the party Of Antony but
stands here for Rome--for the South, whose cham

have been led to make these remarks by noticing the
accounts of the fattering reception given to Gen.
Quitman during his recent visit to some of the adj
joining States. ~ Y
Although decided Democrat, according to origi-

have seen them with our own eyes and heard them
with our own ears point to him and say, there is an
honest man. They, nor anybody else, could have
made truer statement.
