We hive no desire to forestall judi- alt! investigation in this matter, but there are eertain facts connected ’ with this Laid Commission which may not ha known to -the general public, and JlVkoowledgo of which the crime. fttfo to the people whom ho isr dhlrged with defrao'ding. By the Act of Assembly, approved March 27, 1869, entitled “ An Act to. provide for the appointment of a Land Commissioner and to define hie powers and duties,’’ the State Treasurer was au- thorised to issue State ’bonds to the amount of $200,000'to the Land Com' mimioaer.'to he expended by the Com- Buseioner in accordance with the provis- ioae of the Act. These bonds were oot keued to the Commissioner, but were •eat through Parker to Khoopion, the financial agent in New York, and after wards hypothecated by him at the rate of TO cents on the dollar. Long before these bonds were negotiated in New York, which was not nntii six months aftpr Leslie's resignation, operatfons’ertm- meoced through Parker, which rapidly led •net only to the exhaustion of the ^par value of thie first issue of bonds, but 4o large over dtadto, antioipatoiy of sub> sequent appropriations by the Legiala- ture for tha same purpose. At the time of O. P. Leake's resignation, on the' r 1st of March. W70. the expenditures may be variously etated from $440,051. according to Leslie’s estimate, to $500,- . ' ©00 acoording to Oardoxo’s, showing an of expenditures over appropria- even at par of $300,000. . To say that in these transactions the sion, the actual value of which in mar< ket did not exceed iSWffitR, we find - i Parker crediting himself, under the sanction of the Advisory Boord, With $712,079 19, besides $8 W5 contin gent expenses connected witn the Com< mission. Amcttg (itlcr duties devhltiug npon the OounAissiooer, he was required to keep a set of books ’and make an an* nual ‘report to the Legislature, and to aid him he was allowed clerical assist- * Y unce. The books were- purchased, and Joaephus Woodruff regularly drew his $125 per month allowed him by this Vas cally Board for keeping Leslie's office open from fitfth April, 1869, tf 1st March, 1870, end for kefplng a set of books in which no entry was ever made, fn explanation of this sinecure condition of Woodruff we •■quote''from (Rep. and Res. 1875, *76, p. 1,2G1) Leslie’s testi mony taken before Chancellor W. D. Johnson, James L. Orr and J. W. Livingston, a special committee of the House : “ I really kept no books, except letter acd memoranda books, while I was ' Land CommteiiOr.er, for the best reason in the world—I had nothing to put in them. I had a bond book, but no bonds / I bad a cash book wherein to enter the proceeds of the bonds, but I had no proceeds. Mr. Parker had them. I hml a book for the record of deeds, but I had qo deeds, for Mr. Par- ker made the payments and took the deeds and held tbeln as bis vouchers for bis payments. I really had but one duty to perform, that was to keep up the correspondence aud approve or dis approve of the applications for sale.” Now when we Consider that under See. 8 of the Act of 1869 “ The books and records of the said Land Commissioner shall at all- ttac& be subject to the in> spectiou of the Advisory Hoard or any member thereof,” and that the Commis sioner was the' rttere creature and tool LeSdlflK Millinery Establiahmrnt OF AtTGUSTA. .

Who then were the acting members of that Board? According to the'teStimony of Governor Scott, he says that he performed his duties in a manner somewhat perfunctory, at one time retir ing (November, 1869) lu a pet, again re« turning to bluster about rascality, and at lost yielding timidly to the current. Car doso retired November, 1869, at the tome time with Scott atd returned to duty March 1st, 1870. on the withdrawal of Leslie. These withdrawals left three acting members, Chamberlain. Parker and Neagle, and on them must rest the burden of all the infamous transactions which have given this Board an unen viable notoriety. Chamberlain in his testimony before the committee, already referred to (p. 1,221), after alluding to tho resignation of Scott and Carduzo. says .* “ Well, I cKd not 'like ‘to remain after they had withdrawn, but I felt and said that I could not resign unless I re signed as Attorney-General, because I was ex-<$icio and by force of law a mem ber of the Board, and that I must remain and do the best I could.” This ’pretext is altogether spfecious, inasmuch as every member of the Board was so viriule officii, and if Scott could resign without laying down the Governorship £0 could Cham berlain without abandoning the Attor- ney-Generslehip, but he resnsinefi and did the “ belt he could.” We shall see as to that hereafter when we come to examine into the details of some of the most infamous transactions which have ever disgraced the annals of this or any Other State, except,-perhaps, N«w York i jQta'J In Tweed’atime.
