FRAUD IN TENNESSEE.
ANOTHER STATE TREASURY ROBBED


THE MONEY SAID TO HAVE BEEN DEPOSITED A FARO
RANK.-LARGE AMOUNT OF EXCHANGE BANK BONDS
MISSING.
From The Nashville Banner 25h.l
The recent developments of fraud and rascality in
connection with the affairs of the offices of the
Comptroller and Secretary of the State present Il
state of facts of the most painful end startling char
acter The result of the Investigations of the Leg
slatiVe committee has not been officially announced
but its general features generally understood in
this city, and have been made public already in the
columns of a cOtemporary. They show mainly that
the Secretary of State, who is Commissioner of the
Turnpike Fund.- is defaulter in the sum of $50 000
and that Thos X. Mosby, who has been for many
years clerk in the Comptroller's office, has been
in the habit of taking State bonds deposited Sc
curity for the circulation of free banks and appro-
priating them to his own Seven of these bonds
of $1,000 each, have been traced to him by the
committee, and he cOnfesses to have stolen them.
The Comptroller under whose administration this
theft perpetrated, J. c. Luttrel is acquitted of
criminality in the matter, though generally cen
sured by public opinion for inattention to business
Mr. Luttrell had unbOunded confidence in his clerk,
Mr. Mosby. When he went into office, he found
Mosby there familiar with the business of his Office
Col. Crozier, Mr.. Luttrels predecessor, and other
leading gentlemen connected with the departments
recommended him in the highest terms, and he was
employed by Col. Luttrell at a higher salary than
the services of other good clerks could have been
procured for on account of his supposed integrity
and experience.
The fraud connected with the Exchange Bank by
which an indefinite circulation of notes of that bank
has been thrown out without the deposit of securi-
ties, has not been traced to its proper author or
authors. The law requires the bonds to be deposi-
ted before the notes countersigned by the Comp
troller The owners of the bank allege that these
bonds were deposited, and that SI23,O0O are mis-
sing. To make this assertion good it is only neces-
sary, presume, to produce the receipt, which
should have been taken for every bond deposited
The mystery involved in this matter, we presume.
is capable of solution and the public will await with
anxiety the result of further Investigations. The
responsibility lies between the owners of the bank
(the Messrs. Spence) the Bank of Tennessee. and
the Comptroller. We trust and believe the com.
mittee of investigation will not stop short of a thor
ough exposure Of the facts, if their authority ex
tends that far it not, that the Governor and Attor
ney General will consummate the work N''O1

BUSINESS &c.-After the late extra
ordinary wet season, We are blessed with
the return Of the most pleasant and cheering
weather the farming interest ever enjoyed.
The crops are now recuperating and coming
forward with degree Of vigor which glad
dens the heart of the husbandman, and give
fair promise of a rich and abundant harves-
in this section of country. Since the return
of dry weather, an abundance Of grain Is
finding its way into market from all quar-
ters and and business among the townspeo-
pie is reviving as fast as the currency will
admit. Much grain which has been kept
over in bins, Las been destroyed, which loss
will fall heavily vpon some unfortunate far
mers. The crops Of 81 were very fair in
this section of country, but should favor
able state of weather continue. the crops
Of the coming season will be far in advance
Of last years. OF the prices which will
rule at the ensuing harvest, we can only
form an opinion from what we hear from
those who should be posted in the matter,
which is, that figures will not vary sensibly
from those of last year. Though all would
strongly hope for an upward tendency, the
fact that that the country is already filled
with surplus of grain, seems to deny us
any such grounds for hope. However, there
long future before US, and we may still
continue to hope and work for that gres:
degrees Of prosperity which the State in
which We live is destined to enjoy.
