The following confession was made by
the Hon. Mr.. Dawes, a Republican mem
Der of Congress from Massachusetts, on
the 25th of April, 1862:
"The gentlemen must remember that
in the first year of Republican adj
ministration, which came into power upon
professions of reform and retrenchment,
there is indubitable evidence abroad in
the land that SOMEBODY has plundered the
public Treasury well nigh in that year
as much as the entire current yearly er-
penses Of Government during the admin
istration which the people hurled from
poVer because ofaS corruption"
