It apjK'ara 1nin the foregojitg ixount that under these instructions, only 87.800 were in test (I. Whether the neglect to invest the remaining part f the fund. arose from the severe illness with which the Ireanurer was soon fterwards afflicted, or from his inability to procure the Stock on ie terms prescribed by tho Board, or from any other chusc, the lSoard have now no means of ascertaining. By an art of the General Assembly passed in the venr l15. ht Presidciit and Directors of tlie Literary Fund were authorised In raise by way pi Lottery, the sum ot hfty tlnt.isaml doll u-s; one all of winch was to constitute a tuirt oitho Litei-arr rund, nnd me other hull' to he paid to A. 1).

The Board regret to st.ite, that in their elforti to accomplisli tlie ob- eta of tlii.1 act, tltey have been unsuccessful. Letters were ad- ressed tn the principal brokers in tli "ditferent citfes of the Uni- l States, wh i had been enasred in purchasing the privilege of itteries, inviting; from then proposals for the one authorised by :!iis act. Tu ail these letters, answers were rt t'irneil, lierlinintr r various reasons to make any proposals. l'he Hoard Iit lievine; hat this was the mode in which the Legislature intended that thr Authority to raise motley by lottery should be eseiTisd, and hh- Lvilliur to incur the risk and vi'spoiimbility wt drawing a lottery under their own ,superintendenre, or that of agcnti ajtpointed by hem, without thtt special direction ot the- Legislature, have de nial to take -any further steps in this business.

From tins it will be seen 'hat all the - dinary expenditures of the covernment can be met without at all interfering .with; the spec i lie appropriations heretofore, made, by the Legislature.1 While however they feci pleasure in presditing this prospect, v tbey: assure the GXieral Asseinbly , that they Mill, in directing investments of the inoncy entrusted to their manage ment, take especial care- so to act as nt in the slightest degree to ipipede the oi-dinafy lishnrsements or derange the ordinary p- fcratioTis oi tue treasury ocpartmpjit.'; I The Board having no further recommenuatirtnfi. aii(1 no other feencral views to .present at this time to your lio'uoable bbiiv, nipt nero tiose ineir repoiTi. jboi tney feel constrained, by i cuseof duty to,tIucmseIves and of sincere respect" fot those, tin erVbo.ni thcr bold their appointments, to advert' to the unfortu. ate intsaDnrebension winch prevails airong some members of Vour honorable body, as to the manner iii. w hich jtbe duty of this lioara basbcen heretofore performed, y t-reatures oi your will, ailed by you tojhe performance of reponsible, duties w ithout o- her reward than that which-the patriot feels, in the consciousness f contributing to tlie welfare of his country, with 'no possible rtof to lead theni astray, they had hoped, that even if they er red in judgment, the veil of charity 'would be civst nvcr their er ors.

Uj far the largest part of tlie mint belong ing to this fund La been. received since that period. It seems tm liavs brrn tke opinion ofyoar Committee oflnvrstfgatlnn. and that opinion appears to this Board to ka supported ky strong rirenm- isauai evioenre, tnai lue ccuicauon in tbe rreasary, rrm what ever eanso it proceeded, mast have ocenred befre the S'jit Octo ber, 186, which was tke close of a fiscal yt-ar., I r this opini. be correct, it follows as a necessary coosecience, that tbe money kmt or withdrawn from tne Treasury must have belonged to some other than the Literary Fund, which then had iitusxhtriKe. The Board believe that this simple ex position and comparison o facts satisfactorily shew, that w hatever may be the deficiency in the i reoMury . no pan or u (hrm lost ,ir aiixtrnctctl can properly S akr.s ...... 1 ' J caargeaMe to me iuna,tbe investiueut of which BaaMtrusted to thoK,rare. ' They condently, however, Jodulffj tiJpp that titis deficiency is mi.TclyrleiHporarf, ani that tbe State will sus tain no tiltimatc liss in any of its funds. Other views, might be presented tin this subject, w hich the lioard, for the sake of1rev ty, forbear to urge; and they therefore, pmreed to remark upon the second proposition, that they o4ight to have taken bond from the person to whom they entrusted tlie monies appropriated to the Literary Fund. Upon this subject, the Board can-only sar, that upon an attentive considerati it, of the Act, to which they owe their existence, ami winch prescribe nnd limits their powers andlu ties, they, could perceive no authority vested in them to require bonds .from any one. Tho set, while H makes the Treasurer of t.ie State, ex othcio, a member of tho Board, and directs him to keep all their accounts, gives them no authority to appoint a Trea surer of their own, nor to withdraw the fund from the Public Trea sury, except for the single purpose of investing it. at their discre lion, in some productive stock, with h view. to its accumulation, until it should become sufficient for the ultimntr objert of it an Vii iatiifi. For this pttrjiose, and this alone, the Board believe they were constituted tbe special agents of the State. M ould they not have been jusffy censurable, if, because the legal right to this tund was vested in them, tor the sake of its more conveni ent management, they had withdrawn it from the bands, of the person tn whom was confided, by the choice of the imtne iate re pre8entatives of the people, the custody of the politic money of the State, and had taken it into their own possession, . or had given it in charge to one npjHiinted by themselves and responsible only to them? As to the 3rd pi oiKisitiou, even if 'itwere true in principle, the Board cannot understand how it is to affect them, if the t rue construction of the ar t of 1 825 be, as theydiave endear vored respectl'ully to shew, that they had ni authority t draw pm (Virtd from the Treasury, iutr which it must 'origiindlv' be paid; but' for the purpose of vesting it in stork, it must necessarily re main in the Iwtmis of the I reasurer, as rnblicrTreasul,er, until such' investment is made or directed by them. ; If the Legislature. whose province it is, have tailed to make it a condition of his bond, that be should account for this .money, they, 'and not the 'toard, who Und no aittiority ,t re!j!iire any bond, a if responsible, But as the Board believe the opinion here' alludcif t(i? tobeerro-" neous, they briefly state that according to their views, the money appropriated to this corporation must be received h(f the Public Ti-easury, and there kept until this Board, in their 'discretion, shall direct its investment: that the duty of safely keeping, this money is as strongly ennnneu uy law upon the i'ublic 1 reasurer as that of keeping any other money of the State; that the condi !ion of the bond of the Public'Trbastircr, as prescribed by the act of 1801, is, that he shall faithfully:-, account for the public money and perform the several duties appertaining to his office as Public Treasurer; that the duty of lieeping the Literary Fund was 'one imposed upon him in his nlucial capacity as Public Treasurer; and that even if the bond of this officer had . been given before such duty was assigned, yet it has been-determined by the Supreme Court, that where a public officer gives bond for the. faithful dis charge of his duties, the condition embraces future duties,, which may be superadded by the Legislature. The Board therefore have -to doubt, that even if a loss had occurred in the" Ljterary Fund by the default of the Treasurer before an actual appropriation and investment of the "money had been made, such loss would have been embraced by the bond of the Treasurer. And in this opinion they are happy to find that they have the Concurrence of ficially expressed of the able Attorney General of the State. Tbe Board will prolong their rrport no further than to express their deep regret that this exposition of their views should have been rendered necessary, and to offer as. an apology for the late period at which this communication is made, the long vacancy that existed In the Treasury Deuartmcnt. and the nressimr duties which have devolved ori the present incumbent since his appoint- k ment to that; office. 4 They Imve the honor to be. , S With the highest consideration, ' ' ' Your obedient servant, J A.
