The Investigating Committee
Where the Money went to.

The report of the Tariff investigating
matter was considered in committee on
Monday and adopted. 1t shows that Mr..
John w. Wolcott was sent to Washington
authorized to pledge any amount Of money
and to use any means. however corrupt, to
insure change in the Tariff.
Soon after the adjournment of the last
session of Congress he received from Law
renee, Stone g. Co., S74,000, as follows:
The first payment was made March IL,
1857, by draft of the Boston house on the
New York house for S25 600; the second
payment was made March l3, by Mr.. Stone,
In negotiable paper, and check on the
Metropolitan bank Of New York for S20,-
Ols sS3; the third payment was made March
IA, by Mr.. Stone, in checks for ,9Sl.l7;
the fourth payment was also made in March
$4,000. This accounts for the total, S74,-
900.
OF this sum SI3 643.79 was commercial
paper, endorsed in blank and negotiable by
delivery. Mr.. Wocott paid the Hon. 6.
Ashmun 1000 for aiding the passage of the
though Mr.. Wolcott swears that he paid no
money for such purpose. ThurlOw Weed
was paid $4,000 through Ezra Lincoln of
Boston, and SS,lIT.06 was paid by the New
York house to various persons, making the
sum of SS7,ll1.o6 which appeared on the
books of L,wrence, Stone g. Co., charged
in the tariff of 1857.
OF the eight thousand and odd dollars
disbursed by the New York house, MIR. d.
N. Stone, of the Journal of Commerce, re-
ceived $500, ]. N. Reynolds, President of
the American Council. who Carried the re-
solution favorable TO the woollen interests,
5000; and A. r. Corbin, formerly Clerk
of the Committee of Claims, $1,000. The
balance WAS expended for travelling ex-
penses, pamphlets, and the like.
Ii appears from the testimony of Mr..
Slade, that Lawrence. Stone & Co., receiv-
ed Sl2,O GOO or l3eO0 more, which was also
disburs ed; but it is not ascertained how, as
this witness was examined in Philadelphia,
and the books and papers were in Boston.
The Committee express the strongest
censure on Messrs. Walcott and Corbin,
and impeach their testimony seriously. 1t
is believed that Mr.. Walcott appropriated
about $4,000, which was put into the bank
ing business of Gardiner, Walcott & Co.
Mr.. Corbin resigned his clership for the
Claims Committee 10 avoid expulsion. 1t
is in evidence that Dir. Matteson officiously
