They proposed to have a Capitol worthy of the State. It Is said. At every subsequent session the Assembly made additional appropriations. There was some caviling, and the commissioners resigned; but the Legislature and the new commis sioners took uo step backwards. Year by year they kept up tin work as it had been begun, until at last, after more than seven years, the sum of $531,674.46 was expended. As large as that sum was for the time, when the State was quite poor and when the en tire taxes for all State purposes ? was less than $100,000, yet the people were satisfied, the records state.
