The superintendence, in person, of works of Internal Jinprovemool, the drainage of swamp lands, the banking operations of a doan office, and lite various duties assigned tlio H wrd of In ternal Improvements and the Literary Board, will not be conaidered, by any person, as Executive diitie. For if there are then as many Exec utive functionaries to discharge these Executive duties, aa there are members of these Boaidg. The duties assigned to the Executive, as Pre sident ear officio of .these Boards, I have found very onerous,, and responsible.

I have given the names of the meinhnrs of these several Committees of Finance, for the pur pose of shewing that they were composed of gen tlemen of as good sound practical souse, and some of them of as high lepal attainments, as the Attorney General or the Public Treasurer ; and tie capable as they, of setting a proper con struction upon those acts. Again: In obedience to a resoluiinn nf ihe House of Commons, at its last session, the Comp (roller reported to that House, on i.Ikj 20ih De cember, 164'J. the ainount which had been re ceived by each mem'ier ol the Literary Board for the two preceding fiscal years, and is the report from which the Treasurer protends to have ex tracted h's statements contained in hie exhibit D, to which 'I shall hcreafter.refer. This report showed that my predecessor, as well as myself, had been uniformly paid our per dion,. pay as well as any other members of the Board. It was printed and laid before the meni bert of the Ilouse ; and although the Legislature did not adjourn until th 2f th January, no mem ber of the Legislature took any aolion upon the matter." Here is a eloarsanction, at least, of that branch of the Legislature, that the charge was correct, unle9 we chooie to ascribe to the mem bers of that body a gross dereliction of duty in permitting this wrong charge to pass unnoticed; and t.o the Committee of Finance, a still grosser fraud upon the Public Treasury in passing vouch ers contrary to law. In addition to these repeated legislative sanc tions, I submitted the question Io a gentleman of the yety highest Jegal atjta innients, and request, ed his deliberate opinion on the matter That opinion was given, after due fnvestigation, tint the Governor was' entitled tu the pay, and the game allowance for travelling expenses as any other member of the Boards. I have, therefore, not hesitated to receive per dim pay, and my travelling expenses, as well as any other member of either Board ; buiug per fectly satisfied of my legal right to rere vo the same. I should unquestionably ask a Committee to look Into the matter, were" it not Well known, that every Legislature, from the passage of ihe Acts to the oresent one inclusive, have been fully ap prised of this charge, and the Acts of Assembly are before you, so that they can oe consirueu oy every member for himself ; but if it be believed that any further light can be thrown upon the subject, by tn investigation, 1 most respectfully request th appointment of a Committee, As to what, purports to be the opinion of the Attorney General. I have been honored With sight, of it, for the 6rst time, since it was printed by order1 of th Senate. If any.suchpiniou hat been given, I can only xpre surprise, in the first place, that ho should hare responded to the' enquiry Attorney General of North Caro line, and in the next place, (hat he boo!d have tirade tuch a response. The qnestion put by the Treasurer was, Whether ""-the Gvemr is enti tled to pay as Commissioner. The response U, " Having examined the Act of Assembly refer, red to in your favor of the B'h, my opinion Is, Uia the Commissioners alone are entitled to the pay aliowed by the Acts mentioned,' The an swer is evaive.

To sh 'W how much reliance may be placed in the correctness of this statement D, I ill refer in one nem, inueemerea "Dec'r. do. (Gov. Moroliead) 19 days and expenses, $205." A"d this is one of ihe sums whH"U the Treasurer repcrti to the Senate, 1 have received lor my service on the eaul Board, as will hppear from Ihe Comptroller's Ueporls o) SJOiii Dec le42. Before I draw your attention to that report, I will premise that in ll; fall of lrJ4l, the contrac tors upon the tributaries Io Pungo, and those up on Alirgatnr Canal, bad completed their enntracis, and desi'ed a final settlement with tlie Board The tributaries to Alligator were to be let our, and ilio public aods iier advert iised to be sold.

This threw the transaction of lhe.,whnle business upon Mr., G. and myself, and it was upon that trip this charge of !?i(i5 is predicated.

The warrant upon which the money was drawn was not in tny favor, and the emu 1 received, for ser vices was $54 only ; thus making an error of ?151 iu this single item... There are various other inaccuracies which will be seen upon examin ation. The statement D, alone, contains several pal pable inaccuracies, which is evident from the Comptroller' report, which the Treasurer had before him. lam unwilling to charge one who has held official connexion with me, although not of a very intimate or confidential character, with intention al errors or misstatements ; but a many errors, in so few items, must la one's charily much to indue the belief they grew out of inadver teuce. And If all these errors had not a ten dency to swell the amount of n.y receipt, in stead of diminishing them, and to show laroe pay for, liule service, there might be more hopo that they did oot proceed from design but these errors am all on one side.
