criticism. The committee therefore, find:
lst. That it was improper for an Ameri-
can minister at the court of St. james TO
connect himself as director of the Emma
Nine company of London.
2ud. That the relations of Gen. Schepck

such character as to cast suspicion upon
his motives and subject his actions to un-
lieye he was not guilty Of fraudulent
intention in his connection with the com.
pany or vendors OF the mine.
Sd. That his subsequent speculative
dealings in shares Of the company were
not compatible with his diplomatic station
and the maintenance of position oi
honor and usefulness at the court OF St
james.
The committee therefore submit tn,
following resolution, and unanimously re
commended its passage by the house:
Resolped, That this house condems th,
