TIE BONDS.

We have watched carefully and
patiently The developments IN the
matter Of The state bonds which were
found missing, and On which very
considerable amonnt Of interest has
been fraaaulently obtained from the
state. We have seen suspicion first
resi- On brokers 10 possession, or who
had been In possession Of those bonds,
As Investigations proceeded we have
seen the responsibility shift to the
officers Of the late administration, and
finally settle oininously over the head
Of the late treasurer.
Finally bonds for the sum Of over
$685. geo we're found in bank box Of
E. a. Burke, apparently unused and
nninjured. Loath as we were to be-
lisve that a trusted officer of the state
of such great ability, was guilty, we
lndnIged the hope that no harm haV-
ing been caused BY bis having retained
possession of these unIssued vouchers,
that he would come and satisfy the
public conelusively that at most it was
only negligence. We also hoped for
the honor Of the state that most of the
other $4,000 of missing bonds would
be found unused and innOcently mis-
placed, reducing the less to the interest
paid.
We are free to acknowledge, also,
that for the honor Of the state, we
would have preferred to find that the
steal Thus reduced was committed by
private individuals, without wishing
however that any particular man or
men sbonld be found guilty.
Bat Mr.. Burke does not come. The
attorney general and the grand gary
who are better posted that the general
public have found evidence sufficient
to satisfy them Of has guilt. He has
been openly charged with the henions
crime. He pretended that he was
coming. Made a feint Of starting
next gave great business interests in
London as THE cause Of detention !;
next serious illness, and finally ceased
TO give any reasons for not coming.
We are sorry 10 say that the cloud
hangs thick over him, and the people
have a right to believe him guilty.
