thuS remove all QOuDCS as 10 Cne legality OF
the acts themselves and the bonds used in
accordance Herewith. But if there had re-
mained any doubts as to the intention Of the
General Assembly on the subject of paying
the interest on the public debt, all those doubts
could be at once removed by reference to the
acts of 1871-'72, page 27S, No. 215, which
not only elacts the constitutional provision in
reference to the new bonds issued since its
adoption, but goes still further, and declares
all bonds and stocks, old and new, enumera-
ted in the State treasurers report of October
31st, 1871, valid and just obligations against
the State and section of this act says: "The
section of each of the acts under which said
bonds purport to be issued, which provides
for an annual tax to pay the interest, is hereby
declared to be part Of this act, and an an.
nual tax in addition to all others named shall
be levied upon the property of the State, suf:
icient to pay the interest on the bonds named
in or provided for by this act until the prin.
cipal of said bonds shall become due, such
payment to be made in United States curren'
cy only"
This act was intended to remove all doubts as
to the validity of bonds issued at any time by
the State, which were contained in the treas
urer's report of October 81, 1871, and to fully
comply with the constitutional provisions in
reference to the payment of the interest, said
most emphatically that the tax shall be levied
The amount Of the debt is here fixed; any
citizen or officer can take his pencil and see
what his portion of interest tax is, and tell
the gross amount required. Now, sir, I claim
that every provision has been made for the
levy and collection Of said tax, and that the
auditor of State should be instructed by you
to execute the law, and place the necessary
funds in the treasury to meet this interes
without delay. 1t is but just perhaps to the
State auditor for me to say that I have NJ
knowledge of his views on this subject, but my
convictions on this point are so strong that
am free to say that, if the General Assembly
had seen fit to have imposed these duties upol
this office at an earlier period than the 1st o
November, 1872, I should have proceeded tt
enforce the law with the least possible delay
AS have had but little to do with the is
suing of the bonds, and even had but littl
knowledge of the transactions of the fnancia
board from October, 1869, to October, 1871,
might, with propriety, have remained silen
on this subject, but l feel my duty to do al
in my power, while I remain in office, to hav
the State meet her just obligations: Thes
past due coupons and bonds are considered a
? such, and 80 1 accept them, and feel that eve
