mates ten millions and reducing the num-
Der aud pay of officers. A bill was introduced

sized the committees report and deprecated
the course of newspapers in this and other
cases in the endeavor to smirch the good
names of public men. The rebuke he admin

deserving. The vote on the adoption OF the
