The petitioner claim that jus? tice and equity require that lin. excess of taxes over andabove the tax of twenty cents ou tho hundred dollars paid hy them should ba re? funded. Your committee are of tho opinion that Iho prayer of tho petitioners ought not lo bo granted. Tho tax paid by thc petitioners was lawfully assessed and collected. General Can by, wi u subsequently became tho supreme power cf tho State, carefully considered the whole matter and concluded to reduce the tax to bo levied ia iuturc, but did not pr?vido for refunding any taxes already P-dd. Yum- com? mittee think it would now be uuwisc to attempt to reconsider tho action of General Canby. The door would Lc opened too widely for simi? lar claims to be made by other parties.
