pleasure thus, of my own accord to bear
testimony to the excellence of the German
Bitters. Some years since being much af-
fiicted with Dyspepsia, / used them with
very beneficial results. have often recon-
mended them to persons cnfeebled by that
tornenting disease, and have heard from
them the most tattering testimonials as to-
their great value. In cases of general de-

surpassed. J. NJ. LYONS.

The Auditor, Treasurer and Agent Of
State having failed TO pay the interest on
the two and half Eve per cent stocks,
known as the funded debt of the State,
which became due on the 6rst day of
July, 1868, an arrangement was made By
you with Messrs. Winslow, Lanier & Co,
Of New York, to advance aHd pay the
same, they relying upon the faith of the
State, and future appropriations by the
Legislature, for reimbursementa As
soon as correct hsts Of the stockholders
could be obtained they commenced pay
ment. A similar arrangement was made
with the same firm for the payment of
the interest due on the frst day of Janu-
ary last
From reports resolved at this Bureau
from your agent in New York, John K
Gapin, Esq, under whose immediate So
pervision the interest was paid, the fol-

SPECIAL PREMIUMS FOR RE-
CRUITS
Under the call Of the President of Sep
tsmosr IA, 1863, for volunteers, q large
number of rscruiting officers were ap-
pointed by you to raise the quota as
sigasd to this State. The old regiments
and batteries in the field also detailed
one non-eomnissioned officer or private
from each company to recruit for their
respective sompsnies The expenses at
tending this service were necessarily
| quite heavy, and ths recruiting officers,
in many cases, were unable to defray
them. As matter Of justice to them,
as we'll IS to stimulate recruiting, on the
10Th day Of November last, you issued
orders allowing special premium Of six
dollars for each recruit ootsined after
that date, and duly accepted and mus
tered into the military service Of the
United States, the money to be paid to
the recruiting officers aforesaid, upon
proper vouchers at this Bureau. This
arrangement proved to be Of the greatest
advantage to the public service Eleven
thousand four hundred and sixty-seven
l III, ,46T) recruits were obtained, the ag-
gregate amount Of premiums being sixty
eight thousand eight hundred and two
dollars ($6S,S0zl, for which nine hun

plicate were presented and paid, as fol-
lows for eight thousand eight hundred
and thirty-tvs (S,S32) recruits for nsv
regiments the sum of ffty-two thousand
nine hundred and ninety. two dollars (52,.
992 00;) for two thousand and eighty

NORTHERN PRISON.

Soon after the present Board of Co.'S
trol ofthe Northern Prison assumed the
management of that institution, you
were applied to by the President and
Warden to provide means for the pay
msnt of current expenses. The Legis-
lature having failed to make any appro-
priation for the support of the prison,
and its credit having been entirely bro
ken down by the heavy debt which had
hitherto been incurred in the constuc-
ton of buildings, &c, it was found to be
impossible to provide for the eonvicts
and keep the concern open without
money. The law requires that all con-
viets sent to the psnetentiary from coua.
ties north of the National Read shall be
confined in the prison at Michigan City.
1t could not, therefore, be closed. In
this emergency you agreed to advance
sufficient funds to pay the expenses as
they occurred The Board was enioinsd
to exercise the strietest economy in the
expenditures, asd to realize as much as
possible from convict labor.
The amount paid to the 30th of April,
1864, comprising period of thirteen
