package of State of Georgia bonds pre--
sented by the Treasurer, and under
the Executive seal, amounting to §l,-
000,500 (by count of Finance Committee
$1,007,500), and for which Executive
warrants are noted to have been issued
to him. W hen these bonds are again
counted by the committee who will be
charged with the duty of recording and
then destroying them, the discrepancy
of 81,000, now apparent in favor of the
Treasurer, will be duly certified there

character of debt paid, amount and
character of bonds of the State taken
up and canceled, amount of bonds out
standing, and character, either past,
due or maturing ; what bonds have
been returned to the Treasury, and
amount and character,” your commit
tee have, in the time limited for thts re
port, no opportunity of seeking from
any other sources information upon
this mixed subject, than is afforded in
the reports of the late Treasurer, Dr.
Angier, and the present Treasurer. He
produces herewith the tabulated state
ment taken therefrom, which, when
compared with the bonds classified by
this committee, which were sent to
them from the Executive Department,
and the §1,007,500 paid by the present
Treasurer, will give an approximation
to the true amount of the past due
debt of the State now outstanding.
The present Treasurer estimates the
amount not exceeding §325,000. Here
after, it may be possible to reduce from
these data the amount of the past due
debt to a tabulated form.

The discrepancy of §299,500 between
the Treasurer’s reports and the known
summary of maturing obligations
must find its explanation in that un
known realm .of past due obligations.
When the State shall have a statement
of account and settlement with the as
signee of Henry Clews & Cos., a decid
ed approach to certainty will have
been made on this point.
The committee have, within the past
few days, ordered from the Fourth Na
tional Bank, New York, the §500,000 of
the gold bonds, numbering 2,001 to
2,500, inclusive, which were held by
Russel Sage, Esq., as collateral, whose
claim was paid off by Treasurer Jones,
with the 8 per cent, bonds of 1873, and
by R. Sage these §500,000 of gold bonds
were deposited for account of the State
|in the Fourth National Hank. The
committee hare also ordered from the
Fourth National Bank to the Treasury
here §392,500 of currency bonds issued
in 1872, and signed by Smith, Governor,
and Angier, Treasurer, and which have
never been sold, and revoked by the
Legislature.
The committee, iu reviewing the

find it sustained by the following ex
hibits ;

$1,113,343 25
This leaves an apparent balance
against the Treasurer of §68,917.53,
against which he presents to the com
mittee receipts and other evidences of
disbursements in tiift years 1874 and
1875 on account of the civil list and in
vestigating committee, amounting to
§29,570, for which, if no Executive war
rant or other credit has been obtained,
he is entitled to a credit here, and
which fact the committee have not had
time to verify, by reason of their pre
sentation to them at a late hour on the
evening of the 22d iust. At the same
time was submitted to them receipts
for payments to Messrs. Irwin, Lester
and Hill, on dates September 26,1873,
§2,000; on December 11, 1873, §3,000;
and January 4, 1874, §4,000 —ou ac
count of their compilation of the Code.
This amount of §9,000 appears to the
committee to boa proper credit to
the Treasurer, but at this late
hour the committee are not able to pro
nounce that such large disbursements
are to be allowed until sustained by
the usual and lawful vouchers. The
Treasurer presents, at the same time,
a claim for credit of §6,000 money,
paid on account of J. W. Burke & Cos.,
for one thousand copies of the Code.
While this disbursement appears to
be on a proper claim, it is not sus
tained by satisfactory vouchers to the
Committee. The Treasurer likewise
produces a box of Western & Atlantic
change bills—too late for the commit
tee to verify by count, but purporting
to be in amount §3,448.45, and to which
change bills they cousider him ontitled
to a credit. The Treasurer also pro
duces Executive warrants, dated back,
some of them to 1871, aud signed by
Gov. Bullock and Comptroller M. Bell,
amounting in total to §10,954.09, which,
without further aud more satisfactory
information concerning them, the com
mittee are not willing to accept to his
credit.
The Treasurer also presents for
credit an amount of §2.624.60, a dis
count on a temporary loan of §IOO,OOO,
from Win. T. Walters, Esq., of Balti
more r and of Moses Taylor, Esq., §50,-
000, and an expense account of W. C.
Morrill, Esq., of §77.75 for arranging
or procuring said loans. The commit
tee are not agreed to allow said items
of disbursement, said loans of §150,000
never having been noted in the Treas
urer’s report, or in other form of infor
mation to the Legislature. The Treas
urer also asks credit for balance due
on a protested or unpaid check of John
King, Esq., banker, for §2,115, and for
counterfeits United States currency
§337 —taken in the due course of busi
ness. The committee feel that they
have no right to admit these accounts
as credits without legislative authority
thereof.
Ih regard to the claims submitted to
the committee on the evening of the
22d, it is due to themselves to say that
it was impossible to verify them at that
late moment, and to compare them
with previous accounts and credits of
the Treasurer, and they could not be
justified in allowing them now without
further scrutiny. The attention of the
General Assembly is invited to the fur
ther investigation of those credits
claimed by the Treasurer, and which
have not received the sanction of the
Finance Committee.
The examination made of the Trea
sury Department has satisfied your
committee that a thorough revision
and change iu the manner of its ad
ministration should be made. The
business of the Department is loosely
and inaccurately conducted, and there
appears a want of system and arrange
ment, which, with the absence of impor
tant and necessary debit and credit en
tries, renders it difficult, if indeed pos
sible, to determine promptly and defi
nitely the exact status of the affairs of
this department. In essential particu
lars the law has not been complied
with. The Code of Georgia provides,
“ That the Treasurer shall keep a book
in which he shall record* a description
of all bonds heretofore or hereafter
issued by the State, and in said book
he shall note all bonds paid, date of
payment, and all coupons paid on each,
and the date of payment.”
This wise and salutary provision
of the law has in some degree, been
complied with, but iu some points has
been wholly disregarded. There is no
accurate record of the bonded debt of
the State of Georgia and the discre
pancies existing between the reports of
the Treasurers during the past ten
years clearly show that this depart
ment cannot furnish reliable and accu
rate information thoreofi. The pro
vision of law requiring the date of pay
ment of coupons, seems to have been
disregarded, and the present manner
of entering in pencil mark the letter
“ P,” as indicating payment of cou
pons, is no iudieation of the date
of its payment, and effaceable as
to the fact, and is in all respects
unsatisfactory as a record of value.
The want of system employed
by this department, in its dealings
with the many banking institutions, is
apparent. No accounts are kept in
the department of its deposits and its
checks, by which the Treasurer can
tell, without inquiry of the banks, the
state of his account with each, and no
exhibits exist of the amounts charged
his department by them, by which the
Legislature may know what amounts
are paid for interest on over-drafts,
premiums on exchanges, or commis
sions of any kind, if any are charged
by them. Whatever these may be, en
ter into an account with the Treasurer
as an individual, and are consolidated
by him in a charge to a general ac
count in an aggregate item. In con
ducting so large a business as pertains
to the management of the fiscal affairs
of this State, more detail and accuracy
is demanded for the public interest.
The distribution of the funds of the
State amongst a large number of bank
ing institutions seems to your comrnit
j tee to be both unwise in policy and un
safe in practice. And the loss sus
tained by the Treasury in 1873 (report
ed by your committee) indicates the
danger but here suggested.
Your committee do not desire to be
understood as attributing all the de
fect and omissions in the Treasury to
the present incumbent. Some of them
have been of long* standing ; but evils
do exist which need revision and cor
rection.
An examination of the report of the
committee will show that §152,250 of
the bonds of the State of Geotgia ma
turing prior to the first day of Janunry,
1872, together with the interest ac
cruing thereon, has been paid by the
Treasurer in the years 1873 and 1874.
Some of the bonds matured as early
as 1864 and 1865. Assuming the state
ment of Gov. Bullock in his lettei;to
the Hon. Benjamin Conley to be true,
“ all of the bonds of the State that fell
due as per report of the Treasurer
prior to January 1, 1872, have been
paid.” And the re-payment of these
old bonds by the present Treasurer is
unauthorized and illegal.
The Treasurer excuses this extra
ordinary payment of bonds by stating
that he had no notice of their previous
payment; that there was no legisla
tive prohibition in relation to them,
aud that as soon as he was advised
thereof by the Executiue, nearly twelve
months ago, he ceased to recognize
and pay them.
How many of these bonds were paid
in 1874, your committee have not been
able to determine, no record having
been kept of the date of payment, but
if any were paid during said year, the
the excuse of the Treasurer is not a
satisfactory or acceptable one to your
committee, in view of the fact that in
his note to appendix F, setting forth a
descriptive list of past due bonds of
the State, and which appendix is at
tached to and forms a part of his an
nual report for the fiscal year, ending
December 31st, 1873, after describing
the bonds thus past duo, he says : “It
is highly probable that many of these
bonds have been paid, thus showing
notice at that date.
Your committee have had no relia
ble data before them upon which to de
termine the actual cash in the Treasury.
The amount reported by the commit
tee has been made up of reported bal
ances from banks and telegraphic dis
patches, which your committee pre
sume to be correct, but yet cannot be
received as conclusive or satisfactory.
The same may be said iu relation to
the coupons reported as paid by
the Fourth National Bank, and which
being still in New York, could not be
verified by the committee. Presump
tively, they are correct, but the evi
dence of this payment is contained in a
telegram to the Treasurer from the
Fourth National Bank, and is the only
evidence the committee had before
them.
Your committee have presented in
this, their report to the General Assem
bly, an authorized statement of the
bonds aud coupons in the Treasury
Department, which lias been returned
as paid, retired, or are no longer out
standing, as debts duo by the State.
These evidences of past due indebted
ness should be finally disposed of, aud
your committee recommend that the
Governor bo- requested and directed to
require a full and complete registra
tion of all the bonds and coupons thus
reported paid, or for which the State
is no longer liable, to be placed upon a
suitable record book, aud when this
has been done, and the record shall
have been submitted to the Governor,
and has received his approval, then it
shall be his duty to direct that the
same shall be destroyed by burning iu
the presence of the Secretary of State
aud Comptroller General, and the fact
of this destruction be reported to the
next session of the General Assembly.
For the purpose of affording the
State additional protection in the man
agement of its financial affairs, your
committee recommend that the Treas
urer be required to keep a cash book,
in which shall be entered each and
every item ’of receipt and disburse
ment, including interest account, ex
change, commission, and like items,
and that he be required to submit the
