PuBLlo PRINTING.
You have doubtless seen the report
OF the committee on printing. Itpretty
effectually squelches Governor jacobs
high JOINT iuqu:eitiou and puts quite
different color upon the affair. Ths
opinion is freely expressed that Mr..
Walker is entitled to fnll exoneratioS
from the charges that have been pre-
ferred against him, but I have learned
recently that il is quite probable that
the whole matter will yet be passed
upon iu the Courts. Il 10 due to Mr..
Walker 70 say that he has from the
first expressed his willingness and de-
sire to submit his accounts to judicial
examination where no partisan inau.
ences could be charged 70 have affect.
ed the decision. In case ANY judicial
proceedings are had 10 the matter.
Messrs. Frew and McDermotts &C.

the same review. Yours. &c,
