Drafts amounting to nineteen hundred
and tifty-one and s4-l00 dollars.
hereby certify that the foregoing
is true copy from the Journal of the
Senate of the 18th General Assembly,
under date of March 22d, 1858.
In witness whereof, have here
,--> unto set my hand and affixed
l.. S. I the Great Seal Of the State.
'--) Done at Des Moines, the I'd
day of August, A. D., 1858.
ELIJAH SELLS,
Sec'y of State.
You will observe that they report
the balance due the State for Revenue
account, at $lO9,77l,S9. The unscru-
pulous partizans of the Democratic
party, dropped the report at this point.
By publishing the balance of the state
mcnt of the Committee, they would
have disproved all their libellous al
legations. The Committee go on to
say that the vouchers found in the
Treasury, being certificates of deposit,
were as follows
Cook, Sargent & Downey, s62,s29, %
Cook & Sargent, 4,767 40
B. F. Allen, 44,97S,37
Hoyt, Sherman s. Co, 100000

! " " Saline Fund, 1885,, 45
Amounting to sl67, 7as 81
And there was surplus Of $3.50, 32
in the Treasury to my credit, instead
of a deficiency.
The only question then is as to the
sufficiency of the vouchers. In order
to show that they were good, and the
money as safe as if in the vault in my
Office, have only to say, that all of
those certificates have been taken up
since that date, being paid in full on
demand, as required for State pur-
poses, leaving outstanding only as
follows
Cook, Sargent & Downcy, 1900 90
B. F. Allen, 1900, 90
Hoyt. Sherman & Co., 6,OOO, 90
Sundries, 1881 20
Total outstanding at this date, $30,SSl 20
Every Banker named was perfectly
solvent, and so known to be at that
time, and is still. The deposit ena-
bled me to make payments in differ
ent parts of the State to the great
convenience Of the citizens of the
State, and without cost. Many pay.
ments have had to be made at Iowa
City and at points on the river, where
have promoted the convenience Of
the payees, by making payments at
Iowa City. The same is true by trans.
fcrring funds at the several houses in
Des Moines who have correspondents
all over the State. Every dollar as
called for, has been promptly paid on
/ demand, without one cent of profit to
myself. The balance will be so paid
J beyond shadow of doubt, and will
, be called in just so fast as warrants
drawn against those funds to which
they are subject by law are issued.
| l remark further that not only
have property individually, sufficient
to meet this outstanding amount of
certificates of deposit, but the State
has the following Bonds for her secu-
rity, to wit: ...-...... ....-..

HONEY Is Coon, and we are under
great obligations to the person who tells
where or how to get it. Bees are scarce,
and work only for high wages, hence we
are unable to get it from that source; but
We have just been permitted to see and
taste some manufactured honey, which
was very pleasant to both senses, and sug-
gestive of buckwheat cakes and warm
biscuit. 1t can be made so cheap that all
can afford to use it. The mode of man
ufacturing it is patented by NJ. Butter
field, Esq, Of Indianapolis, Ind, who is
successful bee culturist. The cost per
pound is less than that of sugar, and the
right to manufacture it can be had for
one dollar per family. County, township,
or individual rights, can be had by calling
on rhos. W. Harras, ("Unclc Tom, l." at
Harras' Saloon, where sample of the
honey can be seen.

THE WEATHER Most of our readers
know, to their own discomfort, that it has
rained every other day, and sometimes
oftener, for near six weeks. We had
got accustomed to an ordinary shower,
but last Sunday, about sun set, We had a
sprinkling of rain that astonished US all.
1t was no common shower, but was such
an Que as would put us in mind of how
it might have rained in Noah's time. 1t
poured for about half an hour, so that
our streets were as one broa2 stream of
water The water carried off fences that
were built across the sloughs, and wash
ed out much of the corn that had been
planted, Take it all in all, it was show
er to be remembered. If it continues to
rain much longer, the prospect for corn
will be slim.
