Hamilton Smith, as a leading member of
the Committee of Ways and Means of the
last session. presumed to inquire into the
condition of our State debt, and wanted to
sknow how many bon.ls were outstanding;
how many had been redeemed by The Sink
ing Fund, and how many by'th interest
on those redeemed. He could findinothing
on the last branch of his inquiry in the
Auditors reports. and, as the Committees
clerk, i could find nothing on the Audi
tors books. Inquiring Of Auditor Dodd
about the matter, he said the account was
kept in the Banking Department" and
should have statement the next day
That statement showed thatsAuditor Dodd
had SIS. .245 30 in his hands, Anditor
Talbot had 1926 90. for which Judgment
had been obtained on bis official bond and
there had been deposited in the Bank of
the Capitol broken bank, and therefore
lost-s3.2i7 81. Now this interest is
payable in New York, and the law requires
that it should be invested in the purchase
of bonds, and the bombs are in New York
Why was this interest brought to this
State. instead of being at once invested in
our bonls? Why was there no report of
it made? Why was no account of it kept
in the Auditors books? Icy
Auditor Dodd, and Governor Willard
in his New Albany speech, say that Tai
bott made this deposit in the bank of,the
Capitol, and therefore its loss is cliargeable
to him. But this deposit was made before
Dodd came into office, and that was early
in 1857. Yet he reccipted for the deposits
made by Talbot, and during the spring
and summer made frequent deposits in it
himself; drew out from time to time, and
when the Bank fails, in the fall of 1857.
! lays the loss on Talbott's shoulders. The
simple fact is that he had no right to de-
post or keep himself any of its interest.

Free HomeSteads.

The Republican party is the only party
that is committed to this doctrine Of free
homesteads. Whenever that principle has
been brought forward in Congress. it has
received the vote of every Republican mem
Der of that body, and it has been as uni
formily defeated by Democratic votes
While the platform Of both wings OF the
Democratic party is entirely silent on that
subject. the Republican platform takes
broad and unequivocal ground in its favor.
The following is Its language: aasq.a.
THAT we protest against any sale or
alienation to others of the public lands
held by actual settlers, and against any
view OF the Homestead policy. which re-
CARDS the settlers Is paupers o. suppliants
for public bounty: and we demand the
passage by Congress of the complete
and satisfactory Homestead measures,
which has already passed the House.
No other party in his country. has ev-
FER dared to commit itself. as = party. to
the principle of free hopesteads. There
is pothing like it in the Cincinnati plat
form. Neither the Douglas nor the Breck-
inridge addition to it, has wor,l in favor
of the principle. Neither the original Ma
tive American platform Of 1855. nor the
National Union platform of 1860. has a
single word in favor Of granting free homes
to the actual settlers.B Although here and
there Democratic leader may have. COM
mitted himself to some sach half way pol
icy as that embraced in the Senate biz Of
Mr.. Johnson, Of Tennessee. yet the party.
influence and tho party strength always
have been against It and always will be.
The Southern Democracy regard it as an
enormous political hercsy. quite as objec.
tionable as Congressional prohibition Of
Slavery in the Territories, and the South
ern Democracy give law to the party
While some of Douglas friends in the
free States are insisting that be is not op-
posed to the principle. his organs at the
South are desouncing it as a sBlack Re
publican plot" to keep slavery out Of the
Territories. The Savannah Ga, Repub-
lican. leading Douglas aud johnson or |

this way: =

The people looking at these enormous
amounts, will wonder under what profit
gate legislation. they could have been al
lowed. Without dwelling on lesser sums,
Twill show, from some of the larger the
nieansl rcsorted to-. by which they were
drawn from the Treasury. nf
Prominent among the items is that for
certificates of the purchase of Swamp
Lands. The law allows the Auditor of
State to receive so cents for each certifi-
cate by him issued. 1t allows the same to
Secretary Of State for issuing and recording
dced to the purchaser of Swamp Lands.
Now to increase these fees, these offieers
would not isuse certificate. nor execute
deed for over Acc acres of land. no matter
how mach the buyer might have purchased.
II he bought whole section he could not
have one certificate and deed, but they
male him take l6 deeds, thus making the
State pay them SIG, instead of 81, and
making the purchaser pay Sl6 for having
his deeds recorded in the County Recor-
der's Office instead of 81. Does the law
demand this oppressive and expensive
course? Let us see.
In order to sell the Swamp Lands to the
best advantage. the Statute, r. S., 1852,
Ip. 472 required them to be sold in quanti-
ties not exceeding 40 acres The same
act provides that the county treasurer shall,
son payment by the purchaser of any tract
or tr.t-ts." give him duplicate receipt,
specifying the receipt of the money, &C.,
"the number of acres in the tract or tracts"
Sec. Ia of the same Statute, requires the
Auditor of State, as soon as he shall re-
ceive the returns of the sales fo prepare
deed ofconveyance by way of warantee
deed. in the names OF the purchasers for
the lands purchased" to be signed by the
Governor and attcsted by the Secretary.
These are all the laws have seen in
reference to the execution of the certificates
and deeds. and it will At once be s,en that
though the sale was to be male in a 40
acre tract, yet the certificate and deed We're
to embrace "the tract or tracts" so sold to
any one person. 2i.er4 yaW - 70
p The State Auditor. therefore, violated
the law, when he refused to issue a certi-
ieate or deed for no more than forty acres.
Yet Governors Wright and Willard per-
mitted this violation Of the law, not tor
