BV J, BURNETT, DEP. AUDITOR

OF STATE.

The General Assembly of the Stale of Indiana, at its session commencing on the first .Monday of December, 1835, passed an act entitled "An art to provide for a General System of Internal improvement*." The improvements contemplated were, lite extension of the Wabash and Erie Canal the construction of the Central Canal the "White Water Canal the Madison and Indianapolis and Lafayette Railroad a McAdaniized road from New Albany to Yincennes a Turnpike rioui Jeffersonville to Crawfordsville the removal of obstructions to navigation in the Wabash river, and works of minor importance.

Kor the prosecution of thr^e works an appropriation of/cii

million dollars

was

made, the money to be obtained by tiie •rale of bonds of tlie State, bearing live per cent, interest, and fulling due in twentv-five years.

After great expense and much hnancial tribulation, the bonds were disposed of a State Board of Internal Improvements was appointed engineers were employed the great work was pushed vigorously, and the millions of dollars promptly expended.

Out of this act, and others relating to the Wabash and Krie Canal, and the State Rank, and the peculiar deviations and irregularities ot Democratic oflicials, grew the State debt of Indiana.

For the benefit of the holders of the bonds of the State, the interest coupons on some were made payable in London, England, and on others in Jersey City and New York and there is evidence thai the interest, was paid each half year until January, 1811, when, as one of the results nl I lie ^iva! financial di-anler of ]S i7, theeieiiii of the Slate was proMiuted. and the interest falling due at lliat and -iiibH'ipient (tales remained unpaid.

In IStO the importunities ofhoiiuhohleis, and the eli'oi ts of prominent rilizens. in official and private life, directed serious attention In the fact that the Stale was in debt over twelve million's nl dollars: that unpaid interest wa accniinihiting at a fearful rate thai the prosperity of the Stale was cheeked by the burden of a great debt that immigration, and the assistance of men of capital, had almost ceacil and that citizens were outspoken in heir determination lo abandon their property and seek homes in other States. \t thesession of the Legislature, begun in the winter of IS lii, an ad entitled '"An act to provide for ihe funded Debt oi the Stale of Indiana." At:., well known a• the "Butler Bill"- having been drawn up or dictated by Charle- Butler, 11 in Agent and representative of the bidders of the Internal Improvement Boiul- wiin placed up.in the statute-book, and in l°-l. Amended and pieled by a Mippleiuen (hI act.

The one-half of the debt represented bv certificates of State stork, as shown by Douglass Maguire. Auditor of State, in bis report for the fiscal year ending October ol, 1S4.7, [Doc. Journal, H47. page 4l. was as follows: One-halt' ut' the luiiieiiml due

Vtober, 1 Slid, after seventeen vears

of almost uninterrupted Democratic government, during which time the population mid wealth of the Slate had increased very rapidly, and all the facilities fur the hiiccesaful management of Imaiic'ml affairs were jit the command of ihe doiuinant party, the debt of the Stale had not been increased. On the contrary, it bad grown, as shown by (be report- of John W. Dodd, Auditor of State, [Auditor's Eeport, 1860, p. 26,] to an amount exceeding

of dollars,

as follows:

This will appear ali the more painful when it is remembered that ill 1840, aud continuously forward, a tax was levied and collected for flic special purpose of extinguishing the funded debt, and that if the tax thus provided had been faithfully applied, and reasonable economy observed in State expenditures, the entire debt, might have been paid in 1SC0! In the brief schedule of duties imposed upon Democratic officials, however, th'd'word

economy

did not appear and

Soon after, at the breaking out of the war, Governor Morton called a special session of the Legislature, and that body found it necessary, in the exigencies of the situation, to authorize the issue of War Bonds to the amount of two millions of dollars, thus necessarily adding a large amount to the great debt, and increasing the responsibilities and perplexing duties of the new party in power.

As a means of paying the War Bonds at the earliest practicable moment, the act authorizing the bonds provided a specific tax, and, also, that payments made by ihe General Government for money expended by the State authorities in equipping troops and providing materials of war, should be applied to the immediate redemption of the bonds. The matter and tables following will show that these requirements were strictly complied with. .During the years 18G3, 186*1,the Democratic party was again in power. They made their brief return famous by refusing to pay the interest on the State debt when there was a million of dollars in the Treasury, thereby cmbarassing the State at a critical period, and by their course generally, giving aid and comfort to the rebels in arms.

In the election of 1864 the Democracy were permitted to retire—were peremptorily dismissed by a majority of 20,000 and in .January, 1865, the Republican party resumed its labors.

In December, 1865, the Legislature, in special session, passed the "State Debt Bill," providing a tax for the specific purpose of paying the State debt, and describing the manner in which redemption should be made.

In .tune, 1SGG, before the tax authorized could bo levied

When they wanted money lo pay the interest on the State debt, they "went I rough'' .1 he Sinking Fund and by assiduous attention to all important, matters excepting oflicial duty aud the welfare of the people, they managed fo get the General Fund of the Treasury indebted to Funds set apart for specific purposes, to the extent of 5989,188.95.

In October, 1SG0, the Republican party was successful, and in January, 18G1, a Republican General assembly convened at Indianapolis, and Republican officials fool: possession of their respective offices.

See 1st I. A 11. p. 582, and rhe report of Mr. Dodd, referred to befoie.

In June, 1867, the Board of State Debt Sinking l'und Commissioners gave notice that all the two and one-ball per cent, certificates of State stock would be redeemed at par and of the SI,183,187 55 outstanding, all but a few thousand dollars were presented for payment and redeemed.

During three years pa^t, holders ef tlie War Honds have been notified that the State is ready to pav them but as the bonds are not due until 1SS1. and holders will not surrender them for payment, the amount above given remains outstanding.

with means sufficient to indebtedness, met at tie office of the Agent of State, to take tmch action in paying the debt and closing the long«existing agency as should be deemed necessary. 1 Iolders of the stock, however, did not manifest a desire to give up their certificates for payment, and the Board at oncc gave notice that interesi would cciisc on the first day of September, and that the stock should be presented for payment on or before that date.

Thus, a few years of judicious management of financial affairs has placed the good name and credit of the State in the front rank, so that her obligations are regarded as the best security, and holders of stocks are compelled, by the notice that interest will be stopped, to surrender their claims for payment.

In addition to the millions of dollars of the State debt that have been paid by Republican administrations, fifty thou- I sand dollars have been paid each year. since 1861, for apportionment by the Superintendent of Public Instruction, to cancel a claim of the School Fund against the General Fund of the Treasury: the direct fax levied by the General Government upon the State during the war. amounting to $904,S75 33, was paid without recourse to additional taxation the indebtedness of the Northern Prison has been paid, and the Prison completed the Soldiers' Home, at Knightstown, the Normal School building, at Terre Haute, the building for the Supreme Court and State Offices, and Female Reformatory, at Indianapolis, the House of Refuge, at Plainfield. have been erected and paid for, and Ihe Insane Hospital and Deaf and Dumb Asylum have been materially enlarged anil improved, besides the ordinary expenditures of State government, making in the aggregate a mifii exceeding two and a half millions of dollars.

Thus it will be seen, seventeen years of Democratic management left the State with a debt exceeding ten millions, which was soon after increased, by the necessities of the country in time war, to more than thirteen millions!

Republican administrations since January, 1861, with the years 1863 and 1864 more than lost by the incumbency of Democratic State officers, have wiped out the debt and placed Indiana, in all that constitutes political and financial greatness. foremost among the Stales of the Union.

SPEC!AL NOTICES.

The Life Sustaining Principle. The vital and the muscular systems are entirely distinct from each other. Am have the brawn of a Hercules, but if he is deficient in vital energy he will not wear as well, or last as long or be as healthy and happy while he does last, as the man of ordinary, or even slender build, who possesses a larger share of this animatinsrprineiple. One of the greatest recommendations of that pure vegetable invigorant, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, is that it increases the vital force of the system. No medicine can double tbo volume of a man's muscle, or thicken and vulcanize his thews and sinews but Hostetter's Bitters has an effect much more important, Its uso promotes constitutional vigor, It reinforces the life-powe of which bone and sinew and muscle are merely the instruments, holding the same relation to it that machinery does to steam. Let the slight and apparently fragile take heart, they may have more stamina, though far less physical strengh, than the brond shouldored athletes they regard with envy. To restore, to sustain, to increase this staminal principle which, when ih full supply, is the source of health and the best guarantee of longevity, is a special property of the famous restorative. It is not only a specific for dyspepsia, billiousness, inter mittent fevers, consumption, tc., and a pre

ventive of all diseases of malarious character, but the best of all medicines for strengthening the constitution and awakening the powers of nature from whatever uause they may have become lethargic.
