EXTRAVAGANCE OF DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATIONS SINCE 1851. As the people feel considerable more in terest in knowing how their financial matters are now mauaged, instead of fifteen or twenty years ago (and I wonder the Governor did uot enlighten them on that sutjectl; and whether the ordinary expenditures of the State since 1851 (the point at which the Governor stopped, and at which time our new constitution was adopted, providing for but one session of the Legislature every two years, instead of every year, on the ground of economy") are increasing or decreasing, and if increasing, to what extent, I now propose to examine. The average ordinary expenditures from 183S to 1844, were, according to the estimate of Gov. Willard, $85,883 80, which he charges as extravagant and insufferable when compared with Democratic Administrations. Then there were just as many officers, with the exception of a (ew circuit Judges, to be paid, as now; and just as many members of the Legislature. Then the Legislature sat every year, instead of every other year as now. The ordinary expenses should, therefore, under Democratic economy, have grown less, at least when an average of all the years since 1851 is made. Hut let us see. The ordinary expenditures then since 1351, arc as follows: Tor 185'.:, according to Auditor's Report for that vcar, 8IW.312 48 " ISM ' li!..MI 17 ' lR'ei " " tMU 99 153 " " " 147,442 til " I85! " 59,522 tS "1867 M ' ' 186.227 72 ' 1858 " " " 75.572 63 "leW ' " " 227 ,.160 41 8) l,"3fi,74G 09 312.1,5.13 33 Which makes the nveraee ordinary expenses per annum from 1851 to 1859, $129,593 93, or $43,009 53 per annum more than the average from 1838 to 1844, which the Governor calls so extravagant, when the Legislature sat every year, and since 1851, j only cvtry other year, except two. The true test of economy would lie, to take the j years since 1851, during which the Legislature sat, and make the comparison, for the Legislature sat every year from 1838 to 1844. Whence we have the following result. Those years since 1851, in which the Legislature met, the average ordinary expenditures per annum has been $15'2,73ti 07 or $00,852 87 more per Annum than the average from 1838 to 1844, during that extravagant Whig administration. As these calculations may be somewhat unfair to Gov. Willard, as he had no control over the affairs of the State prior to 1857, which was during those " unfortunate years " of 1855-C, wheu Talboti & Collins were in office, I will just tnke Ihe three years of his administration, during which time all the Jtate officer j! have been Democrats, then we will be ub'.e to get Democratic economy in its purity. From 1857 totbe closc'of the year 1S59, the average ordinary expenditures have been $103,050 23, or"$77,160 45 more per annum than from 1833 to 1844, during that extravagant reign of the Whigs. The Governor may answer that this is on account of the great increase of population. But population has but very little to do with the ordinary ex, eiises. I admit it has tome. It only requires one Governor, one Treasurer of State, one Auditor of State, one Secretary of State, one Supreme Court, one Legislature, 4c, whether the population is one million or one hundred thousand. Ihere are a few more Circuit Judges now than in 1838, but that is about the only increase of officers who come under the head of ordinary expenditures. The Legislature was composed of just ns many members then as uow, their sessions were just as long, and their pay was as much. This enormous increase of over $77,000, cannot be accounted lor on the ground of increase in population, but only upon the ground of extravagance. But the Governor may answer that this extravagance, which I have exhibited under the workings of his economical Democratic Administration, is owing to the reign of what he is pleased to term the Republican Legislature of 1858-9. But that it was not

can win be readily sees from tl ng showing, which I give without comment. Ihe House stood -19 Democrats, 41 Republicans, 5 old liue wcigs, one American and one Independent, (see the list of members reported by Mr. Eikius, where each member gave his own politics.) The Senate, my recollection is, stood 25 Democrats, and 25 Republicans. It i3 true that the Republicans managed to elect the speaker, but the Democrats were able to elect all the officers. That the Legis lature was somewhat extravagant, and more o than I desired, I am willing to admit; yet it cost less per day than the session of 1857, by $76 69. That such is the fact will be seen from the following showing. The special and regular sessions of 1858 9 occupied ninety-five days, costing $75,000 76, or $789 48 per day. The regular session for 1857 occupied sixty days, costing $51,970 50, cr $866 17 per day. My judgment is now, and was at the time, that the special session of 1858 should never have been called. Yet the Governor had the power so to do, and saw fit to exercise it, and as a matter of course, must bear the responsibility. He may pay. that we ought to have confined our Legislation to the matters recommended by him ; but the Legislature thought it very impolitic to put but two or three committees to work, investigating the matters by him recommended, and let all the rest of the members lay idle, waiting for these committees to report. We thought best to enter into general Legislation, and give all the members work, and thereby do up as much business as possible, and cut short the regular session so as to make the time of the special and the time occupied of the regular session together not more than sixty days; but; the wise and economical legislation of the special session which made arrangement for the borrowing of money and its safe keeping and disbursement until 1860, when the State would be better prepared with means to provide a more thorough and complete system, wes scattered to the winds and we left to begin anew at the regular session. In complaining of the action of the last Legislature, the Governor tells you that it spent more than three thousand dollars in the hire of clerks and emt loyees to examine the public records, and then says " alter a thorough investigation ' is there oue of them who will say that they found an error." I answer that there are quite a number who will say it, and I propose; to give the facts upon which they base their assertions, so that the people may say who is right. But before doing so, let me briefly state the reasons that induced the examinations. When the special session met in 1858, it become necessary for the committee of ways and means to provide revenue to carry on the affairs of the State. In examining the offices of Treasurer nnd Auditor of State for the purpose of ascertaining their condition, how did we find them ? I propose to give Democratic authority as to their condition. I read from a speech made by Hon. Hamilton Smith of Perry county, who was a Democrat and metnlter of the Committee, found on page 202, 1 vol. Legislative Sentinel 1858. In speaking of the financial condition of our State and the maimer in whi-li it had been managed, he said : " From an exam, nation of a treasury where everything Wiu in confusion, where acceptances t f 1b Treasurer were charged and bills receivable were credited as casi : cf iin Auditor's ofliee where the book were closed every official year without even the form of a trial.balauce ; of the office of the State debt sinking fund, which had beeu sis years in operation without giving a single report as directed by the law aud where from c?2o,000 to $40,000 had beeu allowed to accumulate apparently for the sole use of iU custodian ?" Who was iu custodiau ? The Auditor of State. How was it, if his books were all kept right us the Governor so triumphantly claims, that this interest which accumulated in his bauds on those bouds preserved in his office, was never reported nor accounted fur iu any way prior to 1858 ? Was the Auditor pursuing the law, made for bis government in reference to that interest '.' aud was the Governor doing his duty in seeing that that law was faithfully executed ? Sec. 8 of the law regulating the State debt sinking fund, vol. 1 R. 6., page 409, provides hs follows : "The Auditor of State shall keeji a record of all such bonds and shall slate in his annual report to the general assembly, the number, description and nmount thereof; the amount of interest received tuereuo, and how the same is invested, and such other matters as he shall deem of public interest. ' Now take up the reports of the Auditor, and not one word do you find in reference to this interest, not even in his report for 1858, until this matter is ferreted out by the committee of ways and means. Then what do you find ? The Auditor comingforward with an "addenda" to his report, and accounting for $28,817 87, and in rendering what 1 can construe into nothing more nor less than an excuse for his official n isconduct, says : ' The amount of Oftsh on hand as stated above has been held in 1 common with other funds lo be used by the State in case it become necessary. See Auditors ,report 1858. page 194. Is that what the law required him to do I to hold it in common with other funds to be used by the State in case it become necessary? Why did he not report it in his hands before ? Why did he not make sorre entry of the seme on his books. The section of the law quoted above required him lo keep a record of it, and sec. C of ftp same law, required that the interest should be disposed of in a certain way. It provides " The interest acruing thereon (that is on the bonds in the Auditor's office) shall be paid semi annually as on other bonds of the State, and shall be invested in the further purchase of the bonds aforesaid, in the same nv.nner ns the original fund is directed to he invested. Is that the way in which the tan is to be disregarded? Why was not thi. money expended in the payment of the debts of the State, by purchasing in the bonds of the State as the law directed ? and stop the interest on so much of our debts. Were the books all right, when this amount of interest was neither accounted for, nor any record kept of the same ? Now let u see what the committee of ways and means say in reference to this matter in their report, which will be fouud ou page 1131 of House Journal 1859. "The reports of the Agent of Stale show that the snin of S45.62 02 interest ou the stocks belonging to this fuud, (meaniug State debt sinking fund; has beed paid, $11,766 65 of which appears to have beeu paid into the State Treasury and is included in the Auditor's account of the fund, leaving 33,845 37 of iuterest to be acconuted for. , The amount furnished the committee by Auditor Dodd accounts for ouly S'28,817 87 of this bum, leaving Etill uuaccounted for $3,027 50 of interest." Where is this interest, that is unaccounted for ? The reports of the Ageut of State show that $45,622 02 has beeu paid to the Auditors and their records accounlipg for only $1I,77G 65, until the committee ou ways and means look into the matter, and then $28,047 87, more is entered upon their records, leaving tstill unaccounted for the sum of $5,027 50. And still Gov. Wil'urd tells you the State has uot lost one cent under Oeuiocratic Administrations. OOMVCKB TO-MORROW.
