DON'T LIE!

-
It is conceded by all who know Lance
Nightingale, that he has made a most
efficient and worthy State Controller, in
which office he was supposed to know
as much of our State affairs as anybody
else could. On the 25th Of last Janu-
airy, during the sitting Of the regular
session of the Legislaturee-ess than
t,po months ago-he submitted his Annual
Report for the year 1866, to the Cover
nor, who transmitted it to the Legisla-
ture as o basis for its financial action for
the next two years. Not a word was
said by His Intelligency as to its mac
curacy in any respect whatever, past,
present, or future-and its estimates Of
receipts and expenditures for the years
1867 and 1868 were tacitly acknowledged
10 be correct and sufficient for all need
full purposes to carry on the State gov
eminent. His Intelligency never indi-
Gated a word to the Legislature or the
people that he desired to tax the pro-
ceeds Of our mines-until q short time
before the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
a few hours-when he and his junta
managed to get the bill through the
drowsy Assembly-and had hoped for
the same drowsiness in the Senate.
But, thanks to q few &ide-awake mem
bers, the palpable fraud upon the great
industrial interest Of our State was
frustrated-failed to become q law-and
hence the u~ndignifed, sidewalk engin-
eeriug in person o fills Intelligency for an
extra session-and his tremendous howl
of poverty and reputation on the part OF
the State. The Extra Session has
now been sitting for nine days, and up
to this present writing, His lntelligency
has failed to convince the Senate of the
urgent necessity Of the enactment Of a
law taxing the products of the mines as
he desires. That the people may under
stand exactly whatthe State Controllers
estimates were Of the receipts and ex-
penditures for the year 1867 and 1868,
we hereto append them, extracted from
the officially published Report of the
Controller. Let the people read, and
Judge for themselves; and then compare
these official estimates to anything that
the Governor has produced to show the
necessity of his Extra Session:
OF RECEIPTS FOR II FISCAL YEARS
