meaning of the constitution. Such an In
depreciation would annul every statute re-
iating to a condition of facts existing prior
to it's passage.
Laws are deemed retrospective and
within the pale Of prohibition which by re-
Prospective operation destroy or impair
vested rights or rights to do certain actions
or possess certain things according to the
law Of the land. l4th Texas, 479,l
Under section ls7 it is made the duty Of
the Auditor to audit and settle claims
against the State recognized by law, and to
issue certificates of indebtedness under the
seal of his Office to represent the same.
This certificate is not a warrant or draft on
the Treasurer which will authorize the paw
ment OF the amount out Of the treasury,
but is simply an evidence of an indebted
ness which can not be paid until the Legis-
laUure has again passed upon the claim, and
has appropriated the amount to meet it.
Heretofore, when the Auditor has settled
claims OF this form he has reported them
port.
The repeal of section 1877 does not affect
OF limit the general duties Of the Auditor
except IN respect to the issuance under seal
OF q certificate 20 the effect that he has
audited and settled claim recognized by
law,
These certificates of Indebtedness differed
very little in form from warrant. 1t was
declaration of the Auditor of the State that
the State owed to "a B, or bearer" a given
amount Of money. Such certificates were
by custom transferable by delivery, and
however extravaganza or even illegal the
original claims might have been, the State
was really bound to pay them or be charg-
able with reputation.

plant, and it is fact, which l am author
lied and justified in noticing, that the re-
peal of section lS7 became necessary. The
beneficial effect of the repeating act will be
seen at once.
Although other persons than the Auditor
may be authorized to audit and settle
claims against the State. so far as the
mere ministerial duty of determining the
amount may go, yet the State is not bound
by such decision until the Legislature has
passed upon the claim and appropriated the
amount necessary for its payment.

The Democratic Press.

we publish further extracts from Demo
cratic journals that support the nomination
Of Greeley and Brown:
From the Mobile RegisterI
The Greeley-BrOwn ticket is strong one;
az TINS writing, 1t looks stronger than any
that could have been chosen by that con-
ventlon. 1t bids fair to claim more adber-
ents from the very ranks of the GRANTEES
than any other combination: and il prom.
ises to secure two great States that inioht
by chance have gone for the smoker in case
of other choice.
From the Paducah Kentuekian1
This is the very best nomination that
could have been made. Greeley is a GREAT
and good man, and every honest patriot on
posed to Grants reelection can vote for
him. He has never bounded the Southern
people, and when the cbieftain Of the Con
federate States was in chains no man dared
to step forward and go his bail but Horace
Greeley. Of all the men north of the Ohio
river, Greeley is the man who deserves the
gratitude of the South.
From the Des Moines state Leader.l
We can not forget entirely the strong
words written by Mr.. Greeley against the
honest Democracy of the country, and yet
we remember that he was the first to adopt
a conciliatOry policy toward the South after
the war was over There are many noble
things to be said Of Greeley, and if it is
possible that the country can be harmon
lied on him, he wohll make a faithful
President
THE Sedalia Democrat1
The Democracy have now the Opportu.
nifty to redeem the country from the blight
and mIldew Of Radicalism and Grantism.
There IS chance now to rebuke corrup-
ton, restore the rights of the people of the
South, crystalize the little Of liberty that
remains to the citizen, and restore our gov
eminent, in theory and in fact, to its for.
mer purity.
