the U. States," the currency in which I
^ Mississippi hound herself to ttmke pay
ment. If this objection were honestly
made, why not offer payment in dollars
or eagles, which are current money of
the U. States? Had this been done, and
such payment been refused, then would
there be plausibility in the objection.? ;
But it is alleged by the Governor that
four shillings and six pence is too high a
valuation of the dollar. This might ho
an excuse for refusing to pay the excess
over the true Value, but is surely no
good reason for refusing to pay the whole
debt.
2 Another of the Governor's objections
to paying the bonds is that they were
sold on a credit, bearing interest from
the day of sale; which was etjiiiValerit to
selling them below par; a thing forbidden
by law. This might with some plnU-r
sihility be urged against paying interest
for the short time which elapsed before
the purchase money was paid ; but how
can it excuse a refusal to pay the debt?
He is surely a rogue who would seek
shelter under such a plea, or who could of.
ler an excuse for him who makes the plea.
3 A third objection stated by tiie Governor
is that the purchase of the bonds by
Mr. Bidplk was not for himself, hut for
the U. S. Bank of Pa., and that the purchase
was made in his own name, only to
evade a provision in the charter of that
Bank prohibiting it from dealing in state
stocks. The purchase of ti?e bonds was
therefore, snvs his Excellency, a fraudu.
lent transaction, wh?ch vitiates the contract,
and discharges the State from her
obligation to pay the bonds. This objec
tion comes rather late. Had it been
made at the time of the contract, and the
f purchase money been refused, then might*

without the deep disgrace whiclf she now
brings upon herself and the country.
But says Gov. McNutf, "The money
paid for these bonds did not come into
State Treasury." True; but how can
that affect the liability of the State ?
The money went just where it was the
purpose of the State, and where the State
directed that it should go, into the vaults
of her bank. It was not the business of
those who were lending the money to in.
quire what the State intended to do with
it. If she thought proper to misapply it
nre those from whom she borrowed it to
be the losers on that account ? In borrowing
money from them did she consustitute
them her guardians, and does she
now deem them responsible for her spendthrift
frillies?
[s the obligation of a negotiable paper
cancelled bv its passing, in some illegal
transaction, from one fierson to another ?
The traffic with slaves is illegal in this

h?H, into whatever hands it might afterwards
fall. Or suppose a fugitive from
jmtice to pass a hank hill in payment of
frriage, would this Ik; a valid plea for
the hanks refusing to pay the hill when
subsequently presented hv another person
? It would if the Mississippi doc- j
trine lie correct.
4 A foirtii reason assignn I hv Gov.
McNT. against piving the bonds is that j
tne constitution of the slate forbids plcdging
its credit for the pnvment of any i
loan, unless the law for that purpose is
first passed by both branches of the Legislature,
is then published, and again
passed by a Legislature elected after its
publication; and this formality was not
observed in regard to the law under which
the present bonds were issued. The law, (
it is said, is therefore unconstitutional. It 1
is a remarkahc feature in this shameful j
transaction, that the very man who urges I
this reason, admits, in the very publica- i
? ?r_?_ t? ?. .1? . e_ i.: _u* i
lion in wmcn ne urges n, wim u? iuui?eu, j
as Governor of the State, signed this un- I
constitutional hill * in obedience to the
public irillalthough t e constitution
allowed him to veto it. He then executed
the bonds and passed them over
ito the hank for the purpose of being
sold. Was there ever more barefaced
swindling, or a more impudent avowal of
it ? The state issues bonds in violation
of its constitution and then pleads this
wrong in bar to the collection of these
fronds. It obtains money by false pretences,
and then pleads the very falseness
of its own pretences asan excuse for not
refunding the money. In all this swindling
transaction the same individual was
at the head of the State, and a leading
agent in the affair; and now he has the
impudent effrontery puhliclv tonvow the
facts over his own signature. He says,
too, that a majority of two thirds in each
branch of the State Legislature sustain
him, and adds moreover as follows: 111
firmly believe that four fifths of the people
of this State prefer going to war to paying
the bonds."
This is the first, or at most, the second
instance of any member of the Confederacy
repudiating her own faith ; but it is
an ominious fact that all condemnation
of it bv the public press is confined to one
of the great political parties into which
the country is divided. All the papers
of the other party which we have seen,
from the Washington (}!ohe down, so
far as they have expressed ai.v opinion at
all, approve the course taken by Missis1X7**
on ?t A/Mie.'A to Llin h\7 ft r
"C ? uhj l.ifuiov luuvn "j "v. j j
for we suppose from the statement published
hy her Governor, as well as trom
the issue upon which her late election
turned, that she has determined upon her
course.
Judge Gantt has resigned his sent on
the bertCh. In a well written, though
brief, letter of resignation, he stated that
his purpose of resigning was marie knhwn
to his friends at the beginning of the Session.
Wlitin his letter of resignation whs
read in the House, Mr. RiiEdt rnovtid
the following resolutions:
Resolved, That the Legislature appreciate
highly the motives Which have induced
the Hon. Richard Grantt to resign
the office of a Law Judge.
Resolved. That as a testimonial of their
regard for his person, and their estimate j
Of his long and faithful public services,
one year's salary of thirty-five hundred i
dollars* he appropriated for his use, and be
paid to him at tho adjournment of the
Legislature.
Resolved, That his letter of resignation
be entered at length on the Journals of the
House.
The first and third of these resolutions
passed unanimously; and the second, by
a vote of 84 to 26. It is a tribute of respect
and gratitude, honorable to the state
as well us to the faithful public servant to
whom it is offered.

It will be seen by reterence to tne an. i
struct of the proceedings in the House of
Representatives, that the committee to
whom had been referred so much of the
Governor's message as recommends a
change in the manner of trying slave?,
charged wilh capital offences, reported
against the change; and that the House
by a decided majority sent back the re
port, with instructions to reverse it. It is
a reproach to the character of the state
that the present mode of trying slaves
was ever adopted, and especially that it
has been continued so long. The state

has been so decidedly rebuked, thai our
esteemed and worthy townsman found it
difficult to be elected Comptroller. We
should not be surprised to have a lull rendering
these two offices imJIigible after

regarded as a check upon the Treasurer: ;
not when the officers of these two offices j

very frequently refreshes the house wilh j

that infest the several Court Houses,

were compelled to transport their slaves j

in the Cabinet meeting of the 18th of August
; but I say here, in the presence of
