We had supposed that if mmj point in oar government wna settled be Yni controversy, it was that of the Presi ant's ssaYer to iuue such a proclamation. At the time of the adoption of the constitu tion It was Conceded by all that this power was lodged by that Instrument in theExeeu- Uvs exclusively. One ground of objection to U eft the part of lift opponents was that the President possessed the exeloslve power of pardoning ta eases of troasou. which, it wna contended, should hare depended upon the assent of one, or both branches of the legislative body. This objection was sua snsaasjd of is the 74th number of the Federaliat by Gen. Hamilton in the triumphant manner usual with him. Ho did not deny that there were strong reasons to bo aligned for re quiring la this particular the concurrence of one Off both Houses of Congress. All those reasons were enumerated by him and their fall weight allowed.

JOHN MINOR BOTT8. Hon- John M. Botts, of Virginia, died at his residence, la Culpepper County a few days since. Ho had been for many years one of the moat prominent men hi the country and his death has created considerable sen' nation. As n member of the Federal House of Representatives he took rank among t'ae ablest debaters and the most profound think era of the ago. He was for soma yean the acknowledged leader of the Whig party In Virginia, and many desired to see him ele rated to the Presidency. His devoted at taehment to the Union and his adherence to it throughout the late war are wall known. He was imprisoned for a brief period by the Confederate Government in consequence of his political teatimoat, an indignity which he probably never forgave. Ha was unques tionably a man of eery marked, aad, per haps, good qualities, bat his character wna marred by his want of magnnnimity.

Raleigh, January 6, 1869. To the Honorable On uen J I v01 THE PENITENTIARY COMMITTEE. Four members of the Penitentiary com mittee have submitted a communication to the General Assembly, defending the com mittee against the various charges which have been brought against it, and demand ing a committee of investigation. As we have given tarreney to some of the charges which have been made against the majority of the eommittee we deem it but just ice that they should be heard through oar columns We, therefore, make the following extract from their communication, remarking that the signature of Mr. Lassiter, one of the ma jority who concurred in the action taken by the committee, is wanting : The committee have "been amased to find that assertion! without shadow ot foundation have been made and partly gained credence in the public mind, until not only their jodg incut honestly exercised has been impeached, but it IS freely charged that the Committee has acted from corrupt motives. 1 bey have been accused of having acted with "hot haste," when the law required them to locate the lVmtenti ary of ones. They have been accused of buy ing eight thousand acres of land worth hfty five cents per acre, when in truth they purcha sed very valuable water privileges st a low es- mate, worth 2o,uoo, ami tor one tract oi land containing more than three hundred and fifty acres, they have been offered eighty dollars per acre in the bonds or tne state by perfectly solvent parties, and the land alone can be sold tna mtoutrh to leave the Whole of the Peniten- "Hoary site and, water.no wsr almost, u not en to u rely, WI tsfll ta express word. ooy coal or outer property to be aaed in connection with the Penitentiary. It has been charged that this Committee pur chased a "defective title," when in fact the ti tle was exam hied and reported perfectly valid by some of the best lawyer of the State. Under these circumstances the Committee feet that they have the right to ask for a Com mittee of investigation into their conduct. They are prepared to prove : 1st. That the property purchased i admira bly suited for the location of a PeeJtentierv. to supply material for its erection, and for the re munerative employment of this labor of the convicts. J 8d. J hat the property has very great nres- ent, and much greater prospective value. Even il used to supply granite and timber for the erection of the Penitentiary, it can. after its completion, if it be thought beet not to employ the convicts in any of the forms of the manu factures of iron or other lists Is. be sold at great profit to the State. dd. That ail the statements iinputrnine the motives of the Committee are utterly false' that the purchase was at a fair price and should not be repudiated by the State. if many, tne uommirtee beg leave to state that offers have been made to tnetn for the purchase of the whole of pari of that portion of the property, against winch so many objec tions sre made, which will enable the State to get rid of the same without loss. While their opinion is still that such a step should not be taken, they ask that the Committee of investi gation shall report ss to the expediency of such sale. If the General Assembly should con clude to dispose of this valuabls mineral aad other property, they will cheerfully yield to Exkcutivk Depahtmestok X C. I General Assembly of X.

I have full confidence in the ability of the Public Treasurer, and trust that General Assembly will give In recommendations and views the considera tion to which they are j ustly entitled. Tha credit of the State ia of paramount importance. It should be maintained at whatever sacrifice. In no other way can oar good name be preserved untarnished ; in no other way eaa wa hope to prosecute those work of internal improvement on which it fa believed oar prosperity in tha future materially depends. I trust that it may be tha pi aa-e of the General Assembly at once to pass a revenue bill which will enable Hie Treas urer to meet the January interest now due, and also provide for the interest fall ing doe daring the present year, as well aa for the ordinary expenses of the gov ernment.

Bat an aaaaob was afterwards made upon tha bonds issued under authority of a law passed in August last for the benefit of the Chatham Railroad, on tne ground that they were unconstitutional. This assault, although probably it was not so intended by the assailants, produced such a profound distrust of all issues under re cent acts, that tho Stock Board of New- York refused to regard as good deliveries any north Carolina bonds dated since Aprjl 1st., 1868. It was too late to pre pare and issue new bonds to be used aa collatterals, and then take steps to pro cure a revocation of this resolution of the Stock Board. Therefore, actuated by an intense anxiety to avoid the disjepnte of payment of iusumJl.'T was forced fa reported, has It baa 600 business of steamships, Ave of tiling ships, two banks, sis private bank 's, two insurance eoisusanics, and three tton press companies. which might expect, from the condition in which they find themselves, to contribute liberally in taxes to tha Public Treasury.

The only power in addition to the general credit of the State given me by the General Assembly under "An Act to authorize the Public Treusar er to supply temporary deficiencies in the 9 reasury," ratified 21st December, A. V ions, was to pledge tho same amount from the taxes first thereafter receivable The same power was conferred under An Act to provide for the payment of tha interest of the lawful debt of the State," ratified 19ib August, 1868. could not induce capitalists to consider this pledge sufficient, because no tax bill has been passed adequate to tho emer gency. 1 he Kevenne Act now in force is only calculated to produce about 300. 000. As of course the State government must be supported, requiring more than this amount, it is abundantly evident that the security of taxes to be received under this act Is very meagre, and capitalists so believing refused to advance their funds. It will be remembered that immediately on the opening of the fata session of the General Assembly, I made a full state ment of oar finances and I then urged the immediate passage of ft Revenue Act whioa would certainly net an amount suf ficient to meet the expense of tha State a r of non-navment to seek for other securities be available. I was assured that money might be ised on a pledge of the interest owned ine oiate in various awuiruau volu mes., t coaid not, ana cannot now. see how such a transaction could inflict loss to the Sute, provided the General As sembly intend to pass an adequate revenue act. Nothing fa more common than to borrow money on eoUaterols. Im o d, this baa become a favorite mode of effecting temoorv leaaat in ail oar commercial citivs. Of courseTSsT Collaterals are required to be of greater valae than the amount of the loans. I was bound to assume that after the Generah Assembly had passed an act in August mat. directing roe to be gin paying .Jnttrt at in October, and to enaunue thereafter without interruption as their bona fide intention to provide necessary fend for carrying into ef fect such directions. And if the Revenue Act reported by me, or one calculated to raise ft like amount, should be passed, it is absolutely certain that I would bo able to pay tha sums borrowed out of the re ceipts from taxes. The bill recommended by me was can full; guarded to prevent loss to the State. It provided that mon ey might be borrowed from time to time, because in the first place the interest ma tured from "time to time," and in the second place, if frdm any cause money should not be in tin Treasury exactly at the maturing of at y loan, sufficient to meet it, either an i tension could be pro cured or else a loan effected with other parties on a similar) pledge. Al danger of loss was avertec (supposing always an adequate tax bill p sed) by the provis ion that no sale of the stocks or bonds pledged should tak place before October 1st. 1869, by wine! time ail the taxes arc payable. I admit I at if uo revenue act is to bo passed then is danger under the bill of having the sjid interests sola, bat surely I was not esamptnous in sup posing ssmli otnissio to be impossible. 1 mentHh these considerations in ex planationrof my rt ommeudation In re gard to pledging th Railroad interests of tne State, because inch sharp criticism of my action has be ay made.
