REPORT OS the Special Cbmittee on that part of the Governor's Mssage ohich relates to the Chim of the Florida Volunteers. The Special Committee to which was re ferred that part of the Governor's Mes sage relating to the claims of the Florida Volunteers, bcg leave to RE PORT, That carly in the month of Febraary, 1836. Major General Sdott, of the Army of the United States, who was clothed hy the War Department, with extraordinary and plenary power, to conduct the War against the Seminole Indians in Florida, made his requisition upon the Governor of this State for a regiment of mounted infantry, to serve for three months unless sooner discharged. That the Governor in accordance with that requisition ordered into service the regi ment which was commanded by Col. R. H. Goodwyn-That the citizens of the State belonging to that regiment, were not only required to give to the United States their .personal service, but were also required to carry a part of their property into that ser vice--That there was at the time no law of Congress which provided an indemnifica tion for the losses which might accrue upon the exposure of individual property thus carried into the service of the U. States that although there was no existing law your committee are of the opinion, that the obligation of the United States to indemni fy cannot be questioned-the more especial. ly as the officer making the requisition. waq clothed by his department and by the chief magistrate of the United State with the most plenary powers-and as the property as was as the individual owning the property was received into the service, the authori ty of the officers of the United States being exercised as fully over the property as it was over the owner. This regiment, with the exception of Capt. Gibson's company, was mustered into the service of the United States, at the Sister's ferry on the Savan n'ah.

This law is al iio acc ompanyed by so many vexatious reg ulations from the Department c harged with its execution, as to render it, if aot htugato ry, the cause of much trouble and expense and delay to the claimants. The State stands between the claimants and the U. States, in a relation, that in the opinion of the committee, renders it not only expedi ent and propper, but the duty of the State, to see that they shall not in 'er loss, either by a denialof their jus~t claims, or the delay of~ the Federal Government to admit them. The state having in ftulflment of her own engagements with the Federal Government ordered these claimants, being her own citizens, into the service of the United States, is, in the opinion of the committee. hound to see them indemnified for the loss es consequent upon that service. Your committee therefore, reccommend that the State shall assume the payment of all losses of property on the part of that regi ment, for which the claimnants are jastly entitled to indemnityv. In pursuance of this recommendation. the Committee present. the 'ollowing classification of .of the claims for the sanction of the Leg islature, to be settled in the manner here after provided for, upon being submitted in proper form, and being satisfactorily vouched. 1st.

Under these circumstances, Captain Whitmore~and his officers purchased horses at their~own ex pense. These hones were sold at the close of the campaign and the difference of the purchase and sale, two or three hundred dollars. is siubmitted by Capt. Whitmore as a claim on the part of himself and officers. 3rd. Capt. Gibson's claim fot subsistence between Savannah and St. Augustine. Capt. Gibson's company could not reach the Sister's ferry with the other companies and marched alone to St. Augustine. It was mustered into service at Savannah. The claim of Capt. Gibson amounts to two or three hundred dollars for subsistence fur nished by him for his command on the march from Savannah to St. Augustine, the proper department of the at my having neglected to furnish it * 4th. Claim of J. A. Colcough for horses furnished Captain Dubose's company from Sumter district. Many of these men were drafted, and as in the case of C apt. Pickens's company, owned no horses ; fifteen head of horses were fur nished by this patriotic citizen, but few of which were returned. 5th. The claim ofJ. NW. Desaussure, for money furnished Capt. Dubose's company for subsistence. - This is a claim for 6300. Mr. Desaussuro was Brigade Major to Brig. Gen. Cantey, and was despatched by him to organize the company in Sumter. The company was without the means of subsistence and could not march-under these circumstances Maj. Desaussure advanced 8500. 6200 of which was returned by the Captain. To carry into effect this report, and to adjust and settle all the claims contained in it, your committee recommend the adoption of the following rciolutions: Resolved, That one or more persons be appointed by the Governor, to be paid out of the coaingent fund, whose duty it shall be to collect all*the claims which are em braced in this report and the testimony on which they are supported.
