pferiod the demands on the Treasury for the
County of New-Havenamount to $3,258 10;
while for the county of Litchfield they were
only $338 7!.
The committee say that they have scruti-
nized with much carea great variety of ac-
counts and papers, with a view to discover if
,possible,,the causes of this increase of ex-
pendit_u‘rc,"and the glaring inequalities which
ugmeregeneral view of the subject is suffi-
cient to disclose; and the conclusion to which

, tliefcome is, that the evil is to be attributed,

it. To the exorbitancy of some Of the
charges made.

5- ’2.'.'l‘o the introduction of i
into the account.‘- " .

. 3. To an entire want of economy and’ good
management in several of the counties of the
State. Under this head they descend some-
what into particulars, and show that the Judg-
es of our County Courts have in many in-
stances made a very liberal addition to the
actualsession in computation of their deben-
ture, and ‘some of the Sheriffs, deputy Sheriffs

rregular items

. and other officers of the Court have adopted

the same rule in estimatingthevalue of their
services. In one county from 1831 to 1838
the Court was actually in session 195 days;
but the Judges charged 265 days—-that is 70
days more than the court was in session.——-
And in another the Judges took pay for 438
days, while they were in session but 3:32 days.

The committee find it difficult, on any just
or reasonable view, to account for the extra-
vagant expenditures in some of the counties
during the last seven years, particularly in

i the increase of jail expenses, and of costs ac-

-c,-ruing in" public prosecutions. They present
at variety of details under this head, for which
we have no room, but which sufficiently in-

.»dicate the origin of the evils under examina-

ition.
The concluding remarks of the Conrtmt
upon this subject commend themselves to the

-attention of the people.

' “‘ VVithout attempting to go any further in
tthe exriinination of this im portarit document,
it c;innot,f.:ii1 to strike every lllll.1‘l, that_sucli
-ngeneral and diversified subject as this, re-
tqftircs constant. and careful attention on the
-part of_the. public aiithoriti:-s. Tlierc-.'is no
great danger in this state, of any splendid (le-
'—falcations among public oliicers. Occurenccs
-of that kind are more likely to happen in
iiarger and wealthier communities. Our
'lI‘reasu:ry is-more exposed to small depreda-
!tioris, topilferings, trifling in amount, butnu-
«merous, untl=oftt~.n repeated ; and wbicli,when
tbrouglit-together, often make a serious aggre-
sgate. The practice in the county courts, as

long as tliejndges-were paid by the day, of
. charging in their debentures more days than

they were in session, was most extraordinary.

flNor can we conceive how men of integrity-—

and-noiie but men of iiitegrity ought to. be
placed u-ponttbe bt-n’cli of justice--could jus-
tifytthe practice alluded to. Who would not
uplb-mid in voity severe terms, the man. who

‘- would defraulithis employer, by kiiowingly

- charging him-a greater number ofdays’ work

than he had ac‘-.ually performed? And yet,
what difference, in a moral light, is there be-
tween defraulliug an inzlivi-.lual, and defraud-
ing thepuople-of the State?

. “ 'l‘he-subject is now before the public. If
the evil-i-ssrernoved, it must be by the force of
public opinion, and the watchful attention
and intégr'it_i.y=of the piiblicatithoritics For
the iinvesfigiition of the subject, the commu-
riity are iintlelbted to the exertions of the
l’Vl‘iigs. 'lfl~hety could be actuated by no oth-
arfedling, than a sincere desire to produce. a
‘reformationin an iin portant (lc pa rtinent of the
public. concerns, Their political opponents
have shown their feelings" and dispositions,
by opposing the investigation in every stage
of its proceedings, and in every form in
iivhich they could’ embarrass and obstruct it,
=a'nd.b.y revilingtthose who were most active-
.3ly.erig:iged 'in=carrying it on. It will be left
'19 the people to determine, what principles
and motives ll:l\"r3(3‘p(?l‘.'1l.€(l upon the minds of
the parties connectecl with it-those who,
without any selfish or interested views, liave
called for the investigation, and wformatioii,
-and those who have endeavored to obstruct,
embarrass, and eventually to dcfeat botli.——-
Of one thing we are confident, viz: that the
i.nte~l'ligence‘an<l integrity of the great body
of the people, will reqiiiije something more
than senseless clamor, and vulgar scurrility
and slander, to destroy the effect which this
able, and very important document is well

calculated to produce.”

Lord John Russell, in the British House
of Commons, had given ntitioe that he should
bring in a bill to connect the two provinces
of Upper and Lower Canada. In conse-
quence of the troubles in Jamaica,. the Bri
tish Government has avowed its intention to
suspend the Legislative Assembly of that Isl-
and; _and no serious opposition to this mea-
sure is contemplated.

In Fmnce. no advance has been made to-
Wards the settlement of the Ministry.

T/ie.Bo1tndm'y. —The Morning Advertiser
ofApril 29 says: VVitli respect to the Bound-
ary question there are speculations afloat in
the city that_our Government is readyto give
couipensation to America, to obtain the line
marked out by the King of the Netherlands,
and with many this idea was strengthened to-
day by the fact that Mr. Stevenson,the Ame-
rican Minister, yesterday visited the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer at his official resi-
dence, after having had a long conference
with the Foreign Secretary. ‘

It appears froui the London and Liverpool
papers that the emigration tothis country was
very lnrge—the foreign packets and transient
ships arriving at New-York every day give
proof enough of this. Perhaps more emi-
grants are coming to America now than ever
before. ,

The British’ Queen, we are told, would
leave on the lst of June. We may expect
her at New-York between the 15th and 18th
inst.

dant harvest. This anticipation has kept

STILL LATER.

The Great VVestern arrived at N.Y. on Sa-
turday, in 13 days from Bristol. The news re-
ceived by her is interesting, but we have room
for a few particulars only. She brings the
important intelligence of the resignation of
the British Ministers, which took place on
the 7th, in consequence ofa majority of only
5 on the Jamaica Government Bill. Lord
Melbourne announced the resignation of the
i\'linisters,and its acceptance by the Queen, in
the House of Lords, and Lord John Russell,
in the House of Commons. Sir'Robert Pee],
thereupon, received the commands of Her Ma-
jesty to‘ form a new Ministry——butafter a few
days trial, he found it impossible to form one
wliicli would command the confidence of the
people. The Queen then sent for Lord Mel-
bourne, who, together with the old cabinet
was reinstated. He consented “to resume
office, solely on the ground that he would not
abandon his sovereign in a Situation of diffi-
culty and distress.”

The House of Commons had adjourned to
the 27th May.

F/‘a7LCE.-—A serious insurrection broke out
at Paris on the l2th May, which caused much
alarm in the capital and the effusion of much
blood.

The King has at length succeeded in form-
ing a new Ministry, of which Marshall Soult
is Pi'eside'r'it. "

EVER AND AGUE.-—'l‘o my friends in

the West, and particularly those who have
used the Life Medicines in treatment of Fever
and Agni-..

It is but a very short time since these medl-
cines have been introduced into the Fever and
Ague Districts, and the proprietor flutters him-
selftbat during the period, wherever tiiey have
been used according to the directions they have
done more towards exterminating the disease.
than all other remedies and prescriptions com-
bined. lt is a couiuion excuse among ‘ regular
practitioners,’ when specifics are introduced,
that they cannot cure diseases which people are
in the habit of considering incurable. Medical
experience is continually doing away a part of
the list ofthe incurable diseases, and Mr. Moffat
has the happiness of confidently announcing
that Fever and Ague is now to be added to the
number of complaints which modern skill has
conquered.

ln Fever and Ague the Life Medicines not
only give quicker reliefthan any other remedy,
but if persevered in, effects permanent cure ; so
that ifthe patient is only ordinarily careful, and
resorts directly to his medicine upon the first
symptom of tendency to a new attack,'ii may
always be worded off. e To escape one chill
would be of infinitely more consequence to the
sufferer than the valueofihe remedy-to remove
the disease permanently would confer a benefit
upon him which cannot be estimated by any
earthly standard. That these medicines will
effect what is here claimed for them,‘ the pro-
prietor lias the testimony of all acquainted with
them and their-application and use in the Fever
and Ague; and his object in now addressing
his friends at the West is to request them that
they will spare no painsin comrnunicaiingiheir

experience, and dissetninafingthis highlyinter‘-‘J:

eating information, now that the season for Fever
and Ague has arrived.

The Life Medicines, ifpropcrly used and per-
severed in. recommend themselves; still it is
uecessarythat the public should know that such
medicines exist. and hence the propriety of ad-
vertising therri. It is hoped, therefore, that the
proprietor will not be accused of egoiism when
he says that there is no medicine or mode of
treatment exlanf, for fever ague. so appropriate,
thorough and positive in its happy effect as
Mnlfai's Life Pills and Phenix Bitters.

OFFA’l"l‘ S VEGETABLE LlFE
PILLS AND PHENIX BITTERS.
The universal estimation in which the celebrat-
ed Life Pills and Phenix Bitters are held. is
satisfactorily denioiistraied by the increasing de-
mand fiir ibam in every slate and section of the
Union. and by the voluntary testimonials to their
remarkable efficacy which are every where offer-
ed. It is not less from a deeply gratifying cori-
fidence that they are the means of extensive and
inestimable good among his afflicted fellow crea-
tures. than from interested considerations. that
the proprietor of these preeminsntly successful
medicines is desirous ofkeepiog them coustautlv
before the public eye. The sale of every addi-
tional box and bottle is a guarantee that some
persons will be relieved from a greater or less
degree of suffering. and be improved in llltneral
health; for in no case of suffering from disease
can they beiaken in vein. The proprietor has
never known or been informed of an instance in
which they have failed to do good. In the most
obstinniecases ofchronic disease. such as chronic '
dyspepsia. torpid liver. rheumatism. asthma.
nervous ‘and bilious headache. cosiiveness. piles,
general debility, scrofulous swellings and ulcers. 1
scurvy. salt rheum and all chronic affections off
the organs and membranes, they affect cures
with a rapidity and permanency which few per- j
sons would theoretically believe. but in Wlllclll
thousands have testified from happy experience. ,
In colds and coughs, which. if neglected, super- ‘
induce ilie most fatal diseases of the lungs, and
indeed the vicera in general, these medicines, if:
iaken but for three or four days. never fail.-—
Taken at night. they so promote the insensible
perspiration. ‘and so relieve the system of febrile
action and feculept obstructions. as to produce a
most delightful sense or convalescence in the
morning; and though the usualosyrnptoms ofa
cold should partially return during the day. ilie
repetition ofa suitable dose at the next hour of
bed time will almost invariably effect perma-
nent relief, without further aid. Their effect
upon fevers of a more acute and violent kind is
not less sure and speedy iftaken in proportiona-
ble. quantity; and persons retiring to bed with
inflammatory symptoms of the most alarming
kind, will awake with the gratifying conscious-
ness that the fierce enemy has been overthrown,
and can easily be subdued. In the same way,
visceral fu rgescnce, tliougli long established. and
visceral inflammaiions, however critical, will ;
yield-—tbe formertn srrnill and the” latter to large
doses of the Life Pills; and so also hysterical
affections. hypocontlriocism. restlessness, and
very many other varieties ofthe Neuroiical class
of diseases. yield to the efficacy of the Phenix
Bitters. Full directions for Ilie use of these
medicines, and showing their distinctive appli-
cability to different complaints, accompany
ifiem; and they can be obtained, wholesale and
retail, at 375 Broadway. where numerous certi-
ficates of their unparalleled success are always
open to inspection.

cines. see Moffat‘s ‘ Good Samaritan,’ a copy of
