4 appropriation to pay expenses, and to pay
4 pensions, for the reason, first, that the
commission completed its labOrs before the
last session, and that no necessity exists for
the large outlay that would be required for
its support for sixty days Of extra service.
Secondly, if the passage of such bill
was necessary, the commission appointed
by it should report to the General Assem-
Div. which report should he received and
approved before any award of pension
sho uld he paid; and lastly, it throws the
d DOR wide open to fraud upon the treasury

To the Honorable President and Members Of the
Senate:
Herewith I return to your honorable body
an act entitled IAN act to purchase five
hundred coDies each of the Revised Civil
Code and Revised Code OF Practice OF
the State of Louisiana, edited by Albert
VOORHEES," without my signature.
NV reason for SO doing is that there exists
no necessity for the purchase of these books,
as we have already more than enough to
meet our demands. Our codes have been
but very recently revised, at great ex-
pense to the State, and the several depart
ments of the government have been fully
supplied. Even did we need them, the
present condition Of our finances would
forbid the purchase.

return to your honorable body an act
Il TO 10 fort ha a.
ton of the records and documents of the
late First Judicial District Court of Louisi-
ana. parish of Orleans" without my 81 gna-
ture.
Without undertaking the Importance Of
this work. consider that the performance
of it devolves more properly upon the city
of New Orleans. The appropriation made
by the bill, although small, can not justly
be spared by the State at this time.

Senate:
A ;oint resolution originating with your
honora BILE body, entitled - joint resolution
to raise a Joint committee to collect from the
United States the value of cotton and other
property turned over to the United States at
the time of the surrender" is returned here
with without my approval regard this as
entirely unnecessary. Whatever Is 70 De
done in this matter the government is fully
authorized to do without this resolution:
and the expense attending the accomplish
ment of the proposed object, including the
conversation of seven commissioners,
would. in all probability, exceed the value
of the property recovered under the act.

To the Honorable President and Members OF the
Senate:
l herewith return to your honorable body
an act entitled AN act to provide Tor
recusation by the defendants in suits filed
in the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and
Eighth District Courts for the parish of Or
leans, and prescribing the duties Of clerks
in such cases." without my signature.
There exists no real necessity for the pas
sage of this act 1t would certainly lead to
confusion in the administration OF justice. Ii
defendant believes judge is so dishonest
or so prejudiced against him that his judg-
ment will be influenced by ignoble consid-
alterations. he should make oath to that
effect, and ask tor a change OF venue, or
appeal to the Supreme Court II he thinks
the Judgment given is wrong or oppressive.
Ii the General Assembly has cause to
doubt the purity or honesty OF any Judge
it should address him out OF office, IN
accordance with the constitution.
