THE STATE TREAsURY.-About the
time he was taken sick and left for his
home in Cleveland, Gov. Brough appoint
ed Hon. PETER ODLIN, of Dayton, and
H. w. SMITH, Secretary Of State, special
examiners to investigate and report the
condition of the State Treasury. The re-
port, which was delayed in consequence of
the protraeted illness and subsequent
death of the Governor, has just been
published, and has caused considerable
sensation. It shows that though the
funds of the State, or their equivalent IN
IT.. S. Bonds, were found in the treasury
without diminution, and consequently no
actual loss to the State has occurred, yet
the Treasurer, DIR. g. ". DORSEY, has
been using the funds for his own private
benefit, thus realizing a much larger sum
than his lawful salary. U. S. bonds were
deposited in the treasury in lieu of cur
rency, which was probably used for out
side speculations, while the interest on
the bonds deposited was received by the
Treasurer. Somewhat similar arrange
ments were made with several banks, with
the avowed object Of procuring exchange
in New York at a future time to meet the
semi-annual interest payments In that
city. These practices are not authorized
by the law governing the collection and
custody of the public funds, and therefore
are highly r~eprehensible, even though no
Eloss is sustained by the State. It is the
usual pathway to ~defalcation, and is there
fore very properly rigidly guarded against
by law. DIR. Dorsey. in a card published
IN the State journal Of yesterday, says he
will in a few days make a full statement
Of the whole matter" which viii maKe.a
different showing from the report, or
rather the deductions made from it, and
in the meantime expresses the "hope that
his friends and the people viii withhold
their Judgment on the case"

TRIAL OF JEFF DAYIs.-The Worlds

here to-day that JEFF. Davis trial is to

unfounded. October is thought to be the

contemplate any visit to Richmond or

he goes at all to either of the latter States,
he may make a brief visit to Richmond
purely for recreation.

On this head, q little adventure, evidence

mild stars were pulSing in the ether over

eriticising the monotOnOus color and the
eternal sameness OF the architecture of these
oroud edifces, aud did admire the white
aag-staffs with their gilded knobs, which
Rraced so many dwellings, and gave token OF
the loyalty Of the occupants. Soon l came

room on the ground floor were wide open,
inside all was ablaze with gas-light, and line
ladies' and gentlemen were feasting there
Real ladies they were. How the silver SER

ruby wine cleaned in the delicate glasses -
Il made me thirsty.
So, when 1 had gone a few squares fur

lager in place Of Green Seal, and seeing a
cellar door invitingly open, down plunged,

are really very pretty, graceful and taste

WEDNESDAY MORNING. JUNE I, 1855.
The Anti-Ssce,sioniSts.

A large majority Of the people OF Virginia
we're not "SecesSiOnists." They were not
s,Precipitators, nor did they belong to the
class who were willing to secede "after
breakfast" That pO,tiOn Of the voting Popu-
lation interested in political questions had
been generally imbued with the doctrine Of
n divided allegiance, primarily due to the
State, by reason Of her paramount sove-
reiguty." but very few Of them ever fully
romprehended those nice and subtle diStine-
tiops between State Rights and Federal pre-
negatives which the party fuglemen were
constantly presenting. The mass Of the
peoplo did not trouble themselves about the
0uestion. They did not feel that "oPpres-
sion" nor realize those grievances" which
excited the leaders aud place seekers. True,
they had heard and read so much IN depre-
citation of sYanKec" character, that they
formed very decided prejudice against
people OF Northern birth and the election
of Mr.. Lincoln, following SO closely the
,sid and apothe0Sis Of John Brown,
caused a general distrust OF the North.
Sill, As We believe, the great mass OF the
,vsople OF Virginia retained their hereditary
attachment fo- the Union, and preferred, II
allowed to do so, 10 pursue the steven tenor
of their way" leaving to the statesmen OF
the country the solution OF the political diff
6epltjes which had assumed such a threaten
ing aspec;.
But, unhappily, the issue Of 'Pesce or
war" was forced upoa them. Ii could not he
avoided. The progress Of events compelled
them 10 decide 10 take arms for or against
sbeir Southern bseihren-tO fight With those
,,b.,m they had heeu educated 10 dislike, or
20 am the weaker side composed OF those
whose Institutions were in many respects
;5o,,ic,l wits their own. There could, in the
,,,pre o. things. Aave been but one decision,
and it was promptly made. The opponents
NJ secession. who constituted a majority OF
the people, were not suddenly con
verted 10 that doctrine, but acquieSeec
IN f.. Finding a conflict Of arms lnevita-
HE and knowing that they must be Involved
they determined 10 stand by the secedlDg
States. ana 70 give effect 10 this resolution
che, aS,epted 20 the formality OF ''SeceS-
sion They did net unite with the DIS
rpiopis.s TO give validity to the doctrine OF
Secession which they had opposed, but to re-
sist coercion, and 10 yindicate and maintain
n. ,bay believed TO be the honor Of VIZ
ginia-eyen leaving out OF view the material
interests Of tie safe.
The cause they espOused having signally
failed. the survivors Of the war (ot the class
men.ioued) have resumed their civil positions,
with their aa,i-SecessiOn sentiments un-
changed. The Union having been maintained,
they will renew their attachments to 1t, and
rejoice that the future promises TO establish
that homogeneity Of the sections which will
forever prevent another collision.
