WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPT. 28, 1842- The Climax of UlTrn.rjr Itlrnrincllr " Lepand Byinglon tam loudly railed for, aildresHOtl tho meeting in a manierly trnin uf eloquence for almut an hour and a half, during which, by request of some of bin friends, he showed the ultcr falsity of a mv "lory which tins been very industriously circulated in the Whig paper, charging him with moving that a petition be sent to hell. As all motiont made in thr House, arc recorded in the Journal, il can be proved by the Journal that il is a lnwc fabrication of llio Whiff. I Ic' further iiaied that it was noi his usual practice to notice any of these Whig slander, and he should nol have done so in the prcaent insliiiuc, had il not been to rom-nly with the advice of soino of his friends, but dial in future ho should not condescend to notice any of their indecent ribaldry."We copy the above from the Chillicotlie Advertiser, the Loco Foco organ in the Koaa Representative district If Byington really stated whut it is alleged he did, we have only to to say that mendacity and brazen-faced impudence con ro no farther, Stich a denial out-Heroda-IIerod. Not only did Byingtan make tho remark charged upon him, but he knows that not less titan fitVy members of the House of both parties, besides a considerable number of spectators, know full tvol, that in disclaiming the purentago of such an expression, he utters a wilful, gross and notorious falsehood that he publishes himself to the whole State as a most unblushing and outrageous liar! Byington equivocates about this mutter, although the lie he utters is not the less direct and palpable. Ho pretends that he did not mope that acertain petition should bo sent to Hell." It was never charged upon him that lie made the simple and nuked motion to that effect. His object, however, is to be understood as stamping the whole story as a slander and misrepresentation. In this attempt, however, he cannot succeed. To the original ofTenco, he now superadds tho meanness of endeavoring to escape its odium by denying a fact susceptible of tho clearest proof, and by falsely imputing falsehood to others, in exposing hi peccadilloes to the world. We wore ourselves in the House when tho difficulty arose upon the reception of Tapp's petition fur a divorce. The wrangling continued between Mc-Nulty, Spalding and Byington for an hour or two, aud the morning Kesaion was protracted fur into the afternoon. We left tho house in tho midst of the debate, and had time to get our dinner and return thereto before it was closed. We were present, aud heard Byington's enquiry of the Speaker, whether the motion which he wished to put would be in order. On coming away, whitut every thing was f'riisli in our recollection, wo prepared nn article for tins paper, under the head of " The Stale of Ohio again Hixgra-cean in tho latter part of which the occurrence in the House wus referred to an follows: " Before ihc rnnrnmjr session was over, another disorderly scene was got up cxrhititcly ainimc; the members of die majority. Mr. M( itiliy Ua presented a petition for a divorce, on tho reception ot Hindi a iiielio.i of order wan raised. The reading of the petition with the paper anucxrd wat call- el for, which bein interrupted bv Mr. minlon, Mr. Mc.Nal-tv boan the rradnnf himself.

Wanting a ipiarler to one, a reccts was moved by Mr. McNully, but his parly friends voted it down. He then Rave notice, that such of the mi'iiitwn as wihed lo ret their dinners tnitrhl no for litem, as ho intended to oncupv the (loor long enough for them lo do so. Mibi quenily. it t ill re sei'n. by rcfercuce to our regular rrjtoris, that Mr. l inif-lon added another plume to hi i p, m a member of the legislative body, by inq.Hriii" if it wmtld be in order In wmv fluti the petition be tent to 1141!

We have already published the words used in this disgraceful exhibition, but we will do so again in this connexion, in tho exact language of the reporter:"Mr. MeNulty nl) presenled a pHiiiun fmm Nnlhrutirl Tapp, proving lor a Hi. orre Iron, his wife Mary Tapp, whirl, after toine'clcliale, was nceived " Mr. MrNultv railed for Ihe rending; of the petition and aerumpnnyiiiff documents, which thu chair derided lo lie out of unli-r, " Mr. McN. took an nppral, and proceeded lo read the doe. umcnts in Mipp"l of hi .unit inn wlim lie was derided In be mil of order, and tltereiiKiii luok a second apeal but mb-seiientlv withdrew Imi1,. " Mr. " inpion inquired if it would be in order lo niovv that the r-etifion he tent to IIKIX ! ' Mr. Mi 'Nnliy moved thai the prnltemnn from Pikt be ap printed iprrial mtuenrer for its drtpatrh." This occurred in the House on Saturday. On Monday the above report, and our editorial remarks, were published in the .State Journal, and attracted the general observation and reprobation of the Whig press throughout the State. From that moment until the present, not a word has been lisped by Byington himself, his friend Mednry, or any other human being by way of contradicting or palliating the profane language and levity imputed to him and McNully, ai members of a legislative body, bound to some observance of tho rules of decency and decorum. Is there a man in the State, who believes that those individuals and the pirty would have permitted such a statement to go forth to the world, without correction or disclaimer, if it bad not been literally true, and susceptible of the most irrefragable testimony ? Byington has tho cllVontery to refer to an additional cirrumstnnce to corroborate his assertion, by adverting to the J our nils, and pretending that because his motion was not put on record, he could not have made it. Now, we h ive to remark again, it was never charged that Byington actuilly made the motion it is only stated tint ho rose and enquired if it would be in order to make such a motion. The Speakor pronounced his motion out of order, aud it was not entered on tho journals, because it was a simple inquiry addressed to tho Senker, and therefore not a proper subject of record ; or if it had betm, would have been doubtless suppressed for its irrelevancy. Byington know nil this perfectly well. Nobody denies Mr. McNnlty'a disptny of wit, in moving tli at B)ington ' should he tho bearer of the despatch f and yet h heroin consists its point or application, if Byington had not uUerod the remark imputed to him. Wo are not certain but that we attach ton much importance to this matter, by treating it so much in detail yet the reckless assurance with which Byington dares to deny a fuel known to so many respectable persons, and by so many of his own political friends, to be literally true, would seem to call for a full replication. We conclude oy branding the cape -grace as d wilful ani deliberate mr, if the statement put forth in the Advertiser is published by hit authority, and he must be content to wear the badge which will comugn him to the contompt and acorn of all honorable and right minded men, tu whatsoever party or class they may belong.

Tho People will give him a "certificate, which Mr. Spalding can never again obtain from those whose confidence ho so basely be' t raved. The Whigs of Geauga have unanimously agreed to support Seabuat Fohd fur the Senate, and John P. CofiVKBsa for the House both Revolutionist and TWror." The Whigs of llclmes have nominated Jim it Aa- Moa for the Senate, from the District of Holme and fuses r was the latter county having previously nominated tliecandidalafor representative. The Whigs of Erie and Huron have nominated Johw Fuller, of the former county, and Samuf.l Atherton. 2d of the latter for Representative. Messrs. Root and Cooke both declined being re turned to the Legislature, as they undoubtedly would have been, had they been willing to accept of nom inations, Wo believe the Whigs have completed their nom inations in the several counties and districts, although we have yet to hear from Stark, Portage, Greene, and possibly one or two others. In Butler, the Whigs nominate no candidate for Representatives, and we are without any information of what they intend to do in Perry, Monroe and Coshocton. A I-oiig Mint. The StatoKmanlust evening contains a very glowing account of a meeting at Houston, Shelby co.,on the 22d inst, where a gentleman who was pouted by the "Patrick Henry of the West, in 1830, as "a liar and a scoundrel," for his calumnies against the Patriot Harrison, addressed the people assembled on the occasion. The orator is represented as having been excrutiatlngly severe upon Gov. Cor win, for his neglect of duty in not ordering an election to fill the vacancy occasioned by the " attempt al retiftna- tion" alluded to in the missives from Speakers Far-an and Spalding to the Executive, on the 12th of August. The Statesman's correspondent says the number present was " variously estimated at from fifteen to Uccniij-five hundred! the latter probably the nearest. The Loco Focos have got on their multiplying glasses. Thus far their efforts to raise large meetings have proved entire failures the endeavor at Tiffin which was so fur outstripped by the Whigs, being their most successful attempt To let our readers know exactly what took place, at Houston, we copy the following account from the Shelby Aurora : THE LOCOFOCO MASS MEETING AT HOUSTON.

For the Ohio EJiato Journal. I.nrd Oil. As this new article of commerce must become of grnatiniwrtanco to the agricultural interests of the West, and move a source of profit not only to those engaged in its manufacture but of great wealth to the country, sumo lacis nun iniormaiiun wiui regard to its introduction and manufacture, may possess interest at this time. Tho uniiinfacture of lard oil w:is first commenced in this State, at Cincinnati. There are now three manufacturers in that city, the most extensive is that of Messrs. It. W. Lee &. Co., who manufacture from 12 to 15 barrels of oi) daily. This oil is warranted to be equal to nny sperm oil, nd has the bust character ot any oil tnnrle lucre. There arc two manufacturers at Cleveland, who make a good nrticlo; thrro is also one manufactory at t'ortsmouili; these have all commence!) the business within thf past year. Mr. John II, Hmith,of Brook-lin, New York, is tho oldest manufacturer of Lard Oil in tho United States, he having been engaged in its manufacture ubout three yearn. After making vftrions improvements iu its manufacture, in April, lol l, he obtained letters ratcnt tor having invented new and useful improvement in the manner ot separating from emh other the clniite and stearine which are contained in lard, by means ot wmcli improved process the operation is much facilitated, and the products tiro obtained in n high degree of purity." A process tor separating elaine and stearine from u:ich oilier has been in mo for many years in cho- trv, but trorn its increased cost it could not be applied to manufacturing purpose The following are the relative constituent! of bird and spermaceti; Carbon, Hydrogen, Ox verm, I.nrd 7!i;0 1l,lvri !I,'"I8 Spermaceti 7!), 5 lt.ti 8K bird manufacture.! by Mr. Smith'- process yields iO pirts of oil and 40 of stearine. Winter or Fall lard oil can be made as well as Summer, ami etpial to the bent uporiii of either kind. From the stearine made train the first prea.-nuL', c nulled are made equal ii quality to l-illow candles: train the second pro:s- iii?, or by llifi use of u Hydraulic press, htcunne is obtained for ntnkinjj candles etpial in quality tn the best sperm. Most of those now enjnped in the manufacture of lard oil have had little practical experi ence, hence some complnints have been mnde in Cincinnati, from Uie s,ile of an inferior article, re Uniir from experiments in mnnulactuiiui?, or trorn pushing it into market in n crude state ; and it will prob ihly he found thtt much of tho oil that has been made in tho summer will not answer for burning in the fall or winter, from the imperfect process of sep-eralinjr the elaine and stearine. In tho first intro duction ot lard oil into ine, it is important that its merits should ho fairly tested, and that those who engage in its manufacture should commence the bus iness with all tho practical experience that can be bt:iiricd. With regard to tho demand there will be for tlin nle nf oil. anion eatinutn mitv ha nuule frnm the quantity of sperm and whale oil imported into the United Htatcs yoirlyr In 18:17 ilin imports of sperm ml wan iti'iMJ barrels; and ot whaio oil VI-MI0 barrels. In IKW, the imports of sperm, was VXWQQ lib. ot whale, SKtviu In IK-)!), the imports nf spimn, was J41,5ti4 bbls. of whale. ',';i..rt;i - In 1810, the imports of sperm, was 1 A 1,445 bhls. of whale, VV'itfVJ The average price of sperm oil in IKI7, was 824 cents por pnllon; in Itfte, Wi cents per gallon; in lt.y. (M cents per gallon. Ah the quant it v of oil im ported his been on the increase for the lojt lew years, especially of sperm oil fitrthe use of the various manufacture of h uul and, should the introduction of lard oil reduce the price of oils it will ensure creator importations, without rlm materially attcctinp; tho whale tUbcries which are of so much importance to the country. As lard oil can be made bv Mr. .Smith's process equal iu quality to tho best sperm, for Winter, Fall, or Summer uso.it will boused pen-orally for burning, n it can be afforded cheaper tluin sperm. As it is cual tn olive nil foroilinp wool, the woolen manufacturers will use it as coming cheap- It will also be orontit into peneral use tor all kinds of machinery and rail ronds from its bcinp less expensive, ami having no unpleasant smell. It has also been fount! equal tn the best brown oil for I n nners use, nnd is preferred by those who nave tried it. Thus it will bo seen that there must be a demand equal to any supply that may be at present thrown into market; and the Fnrmers of the West may here see an extended field of profit before them in feeding hops, thus atmnnp a market tor their corn, when all the distilleries nf the country shall be turn cd into manufactories of lard oil.

Inasmuch as Mr. StadtUn has bnitated the bad ex ample of the Auditor of State, and abandoned his public duties to go to Licking county to whip in the refractory "Bucktails,1 it is due to him and to the public, that we should make room for Mr. Starto: report on the settlement of his accounts, as Superintendent of the National Road. We therefore give it place to-day, and recommend it to the attentive con- si leration of our readers. It cin scarce be perused, without convincing any candid man, that the reign of Loco Foco corruption and irresponsibility should cease II ii r on nnd Frio Count leu, A District Convention of the Whips of Erie and Huron counties, was held at Norwalk, on the 19th instant, for the purpose of nominating candidates for Senator and Representative, After the Delegates had taken their seats, on motion of G. V, Choate, it was unanimously Itetfiltvd, That our Senainr and Representative in Ihc Legislature, Messrs. Root and Cooke, tn resigning their seats at the late extra session, acted promptly a- u patriotically in support of equal rights and the Constitution, and have earned from their constituents the praise of " well done good and faithful servnn'i," Retnlrtd. That, before proceeding lo a nomination for a Senator nnd Representative front Huron aud Erie, a commit, lee of three persons lie appointed lo consnlt with Messrs. Root and Cook k. or sur-h perrons as may he antherid lo answer lor lliein, mid ascertain whether they will accept a re-noin' nation at the hands of this Convention. Whereupon, Messrs. Clioale, Starr, and J. N. Campbell, were appointed said comniitiee. The committee, after a short absence, returned with Mr. Root, who, after thanking the Couvuiilion for the expression of their confidence, said ne felt constrained to decline a re-nomination. He had found, iu the short experience which he had already tmd, that he mini either g've up office-holding or his professional business tlml ho was too poor lo part with the lnller; and that his duly to his fninily required that he should rema:ti with them. He felt thai he had had It's lull shnre of political preferment, and he was now desirous lo stand aside nnd mnlcn room for belter men. He wished lo ho res 'ore. I lo his old plnro in the rnuks of ihe pnrly, where he would endeavor to do his duty as became an honest thoroughgoing Whig. Mr. O.

Mirtorilr lteport of tlin CoinmhtT lo Enrratlgnle llm nrconnta of Illcbnrd Htmlitrn, Intc ftnpcr Intrntteiil ou tlie Nnlioiinl Kond. The undersigned, the minority of the committee appointed lo investigate" the settlement and accounts of Richard Staddenas Superintendent of ihe National Road, nowreimrtj Thnt the committee have given to the subject all the attmttion, which t io ahortwss of the session, and the limited Mmo allowed for tho investigation ivould permit. AHhotighthefxamini-tinn has not for thce renttons, been bv any menus full and satisfactory, it has been sutlicietiL in the opinion of the minority, to make tho necessity for a more foil and thorough investigation, a matter that admit of no doubt r or the purpose nt nwkintrtnts necessity Rpparent, anu also to am in nny lutnrc m- qnirv that may bo instituted, it is believed that it will he proper to malie statements ot the result ol the partial investigation mnde by the committee. 1 he accounts of Mr. KtanMen wore nnirinnlly pre sented to Mr. nates as the acting Commissioner of that jfortinn of the Public Works, for settlement. They were referred by him to A. S. Chew, Esq, of Ihe City of Columbus, and Mr. Stadden was instructed to make his settlement with him. Mr. St ad den claimed credits on his settlement which Mr. Chew refused to allow, and Mr.. Bites refused to allow hut-accounts unless he could satisfy Mr. Chew that they were corrprt, or satisfy htm that Mr. Chow was in error, which it seems he failed to do. Trie cotiste- ipicnce was, tint the accounts were not settled until after Mr. Dates went out of office. Mr. Spencer haj since taken chirpe of this portion of the Public Works, and upon his order. Mr Stidden s pipers h ive been riven up to him for settlement with tho Hoard of Public Works, by whom the accounts have since been selth'd. I'll" difficulties that prevented a settlement with Mr. Chew, were, as the undersigned is informed by Mr. Chow, st. That Mr. Rtidden claimed credit for a receirt for J? 100.00 from a Mr. Rnhinsnn, the execution of which was denmd bv Rohtnon. lid. That Sindden rlnim 'd credit for a rereipt from John Tomlinson for frJMH, for which StatMen gave him n certihr nte that that nmoun was due from the road fund. which hns since hpen paid by Mr. Patterson, who succeeded Mr. Htodden as Superintendent of the National Road. Md. Tint Stndden claimed credit for receipt from Thomas McShano nmntintin? to ff'111.3(;, whpn in fact he had only paid him $:lr'l,of, for which he also had a receipt for which he claimed credit. As to the first of theso items, it npnoired frum an examination of Mr. Htndden's vouchers tint he was allowed n credit nf 100,00 for a receipt purporting to be execntpd hy Robinson. An affidavit of Roh- inson'a was also on file denving the execution of tho receipt at a rrrript, though he does not positively dc-nv the genuineness of the signature. At the time of tho cxerttlion of the receipt. Robinson lived near Ktnn, some 1(1 miles east of Columbus on the National Road. He has since movpd to the State of New York and consequently could not be brought before the committer. Mr. Stnddcn represents him as a man destitute of character, whose oath is entitled to no credit. The committeo have had no means of ascertaining the truth of litis representation. But aa the nfiidavit is entirely expnito, and Mr. Slndden has never had sn opportunity of cross-examining him. it is believed that this is not a sufficient foundation for a charge of official misconduct without additional testimony. An to the error in the account of Tomlinson, it wis found by reference to Mr. Sudden's vouchers, that he had rwpipts nnd a errdil for S'i!..! for money paid Mr, Tomlinson as Stiperintcndant of repaint on 'he road. Tho committee also had a sfso nent r f Mr. Tom-linson's scmiinr, mnde nut by himself, lie charges the rmd with C7H7.44 for work done en tlte madi given Stadden credit for cVW.Wl for money pnid htm at sundry limns, and for a certificate nf mnuev due front Ihe'roid to be paid bv Mr. Patterson Hfl, nn which he says Mr. Stadden afterwards pnid him . 1.100, which was- endorsed on the certificate. The balance of itlHH has since been piid by Mr. Patterson. The correctness of Mr. Tomlinsnn's statement of the account is established to the satisfne- tion of the minority of the committee hy the fact (hat Iho amount shown to be due upon the certificate tn be paid by Mr. Patterson, ajreea precisely with the amount winch Mr, Patterson paid, if Ibis bo Ihe case, Mr. Tomlinson has received 15,00 more than is doe to him. (which is denied hy his account,) or Mr. Stadden has credit for 15.00 mom than he hns paid. Mr. Tomlinson now resides in Pauldinir county, and consequently could not be brought hefore the committee in time to avail themselves or his testimony during the present session. As tn the accounts ol aicrmano, the committee have before them a balance sheet, or statement of Mr. Sta dden's account as he made it, and for settlement with Mr. Chew, in which he has credit for !ll 1 ;17 which according tn lite written tttatnment of McShane (the correctness of which wn admitted by Mr. Stadden) he had given duplicate receipts fur in small sums. Upon Staddcn's representation that it waa necessary for him to have them to m ike hi settlement with tho Hoard of Public Works, though he had not paid him that amount of money. That afterward, upon settlement with Stndden it waa ascertained that he had received W13i, for which he gave Stadden a single receipt. Thnt Stadden then ton up one set of the original duplicate receipts, nnd Uon being asked why ho did not cancel tho others, said as ono set were destroyed he could not use tho others and they would he useful to him in making up his accounts. This statement of Mr. Staddcn's account crediting him with these receipt for ?41117, which ho admits is not a proper credit hut was claimed by mistake, leaves a balance of IH,(i0 due to Stadden. It was fmin 1 howover, upon examining his voucher, upon which his settlement was made with the Hoard of Public Worka, that ho wa no credited with the receipts from Mr Shane for 8111.37, but with tho rpenpt for g:iS-1,nfl only which is admitted on all hands to he a proper credit, and which wis also included tn his account as mult) and presented to Mr. Chaw, It appeared mwevor that notwithstanding this deduction from he credit side of the account, there waa still a balance in his fnvoron his settlement with Uie Hoard f 170,00 which has been paid out of the State freasurv. The minority of tho committee could not very well understand how a deduction of $411,37 from Mr. Sudden's credit, should only reduce the balance due to him $6,nU Mr. Stadden did not leetn to be able to furtmh any satisfactory explana tion of the difficulty. The process by which this esult was obtained, is furnished by the testimony ol Mr. Patterson, the present Su Deri men dant. It ap pears that when this error was discovered in Mr. Staddcn's credits, and the amount of it deducted, that he also discovered an error on tho other sido of the account amounting to $412,01. This waa a charge Mr. Stadden had made against himself for money paid by Mr. Patterson to Stewart oi Osborn, on certificates given by Stadden to Win, Stiarwalt and a Mr. Temple for money due them from the road, for which Mr. Stadden had taken receipts with which he was credited as he supposed in his account ; and hence the amount paid by Mr. Patterson was a proper charge against him. 1 his led to an investigation of the amount will) which ho was credited for money paid to Stairwalt and Temple. This, however, could amount to no'h-ing without some evidence of the amount of work they had done, and the amount of money they had received. Mr. Stadden said he had a book showing he amount of work done by each of them. The book was produced, and upon reference tn Slairwalt's tccount, it wns found that several erasures and inter- ineattons had been made, which Mr. Stadden said had been done for the purpose of correcting errors. It was found, however, upon comparin? tho amount of work done by Stnirwnlt with tho aggregate imount of receipts credited to Stadden and Patter son lor money pud on account of work none by Stairwnlt, that the receipt amounted to $150 more tnan me work. Mr. Stadden then presented Temple's account, on a loose shept of paper, saying that it corrected the iialance winch appeared against mm lnHtainvnit s account It was insisted that the book would furnish the most authenticated statement of Temple's account. The account was then produced in the book, and found to be still more mutilated than Stair wait's. I he first credit for work done bv Temple wns writ ten on a line from which a previous entry had been erased. The credit as it now stands, is for 50 rods of stono, at $5 per rod, which was originally carried out correctly $350.00; Out over the figures ''250,00," there his since been entered in hrire figured, and with very black Ink, the figures "!;i50,iM ;" o that the credit as it. now stands upon Mr. Staddcn's book, is 50 rods of stone at $5 per rod : 350,01. Numerous nlterat'oni appeared in other parts of tho account, and the minority nf vour committee were so well satisfied tint the book wnH entitled to no cred it, that tho receipts from Mr. Stadden nnd Mr. Pat terson were not compared with the amount of work tor which J emple had been credited. But Mr. Stn'lden was informed that there was no other mode of teatim? the nccurrtcy of these vouch ts from Temple and Stiarwalt, but by bringing them befon tho committee and bavins their statement under oath of the amount of work they had done md (ho amount of money thnv bad received. Stiarwalt wns accordingly fubpomaed to appear netore the committee. As the undereiL'iieil nnd some suspicions tint there was collusion between Stadden ami Stinrwnlf. nn interrogatory was put to him as to tnenimum ol work he inn done, the price, and the imniiiit of money h" received from Stndden, and the amount of receipts ho gave. It was supposed if he 'ltd not state the amount of work truly, thnt it could he ennfrnd e'ed by other testimony ; and that if he mswered tint truly snd mnde nny error in his statement of the amount of money he received, tint tho nmwer ilself would furnish iho means of dt'tectin? the error. His answer that he had hauled and broke grew for one mile al 4 per rod ; at $3,50 tor another, nnn at tor another, was supposed at the time to be Ftiflicient. Hnf the undersigned has since ascertained tint this in fact furnishes no tes, as the md spoken of in the answer is ascertained from the number of cubic feet contained in it, and not from lineal measurement, Thstlhe numborof cubic feet would of course depend upon the thickness and width of stone required in the repair of the road, which would of course heunenual on different miles. and on different parts of the same mile. Mr. Stiarwalt also states ho received certificates of work, snd ordrrs &c. nn several persons amount-tnir to about $?;10, fur which he gave Stadden no receipt, sod tint ho received about $1 180 for which ho gnvo him receipt. This would seem upon its face tn show that Stiarwalt had done work enough to eoverthe receipts of Mr. Stndden nnd Mr. Patterson tolh, and consequently that Mr. Stadden nupht not to be charged with anv money paid by Mr. Pnt'er son for work done bv Stiarwalt. It is certainly very remarKaoip however, il he never hail any receipts for this $'.'30, tint be should ever at anv time have tVm?ht of charging himself with it as he did in Iih urt account. It is also proper Instate that Mr. Pat terson proposed in nnswpr to an interrogatory put to lum, to state that Mr. Ktiarwnlr told him lhat he had riven Mr. Ktaddnn a receipt for $.'10, whichSt:ar-w-ill says he did not give a receipt for, but it wns accounted by the majority as hearsay, thnmrh it was insisted by th minority, that it was competent for the purnoipol impeaching Stiarwalt It win also appear, from the testimony ot Mr. Tat' lersor, that a question put to him was overruled, on the ir round of irrelevancy. The nnswer to this nnes- tion would have shown that a certificate given by Mr. Stadden for 100 00 wnji presented tn Mr. Pat terson for ptyment, and lhat upon inquiry he found mat ine stone nid not in tnct been nirmshed by t ie person to whom the certificate was eiven; but tl at Ihey had been furnished by tho Cnitel State, an I were lying in a pile hy the side of the road, at the umo mo road wns surrendered by U s dcnernl u vernment to the State, Whether Mr. Stndden tsmk a receipt for this certificate, and if he did, whether he has credit for it or not, the committee have not had time to examine. It mav also be remarked hero lhat at tho commencement of the investigation, and through tho whole of it. Mr. StndnVn was with Uie committeo, and made such statements and explana tions as lie saw proper, 1 his of course was proper, anil wns not objected to. Hut it waa also insistpd that as these accounts wero p'aced in the hands of Mr. Chew, by the Board of Public Works, that he should bo permitted to come before the Committee, on the nan oi mo pinto, anil give audi osplanition. aa his knowledge of tho accounla, and especially the di puien noma, would enable him lo make. Or if this was not dono, that he should bo broii jht before the Coinmiitco as a witness, tn alfto the lacta which too.i place al 'he frequent nttcn p s made by Inmand Stadden to ."Uie these accounts. Both proposition, bowover, wero overruled.

The Convention in the afternoon, wna addressed by Mr. Clav, in his moat eloquent and impressive manner, for the space of about an hour and a quarter. Mr. C. confined himself exclusively to topics of national concernment, and as far as heard by us, to the subjects of tho currency, the Protection of American Industry, and tho adverse systems of policy pursued by tho opponents of the Whig party. Mr. Andrews, member of Congress, spoke a short time, and Mr. Crittenden ot greater length the tatter on the question of high and low wages, nnd the demoralizing tendencies of the latter. Gov. Con win spoke about fifteen minutes, when a furious shower of rain which has become an auspicious omen to the Whig party broke in upon the further proceeding of tho Grand body of the Convention.Although vast numbers, perhaps fifty thousand of the people, left the city towards the closo of the day, yet the town was filled with the vast fragment remaining, and during the evening, thousands upon thousands were listening to the animated harangues of different eloquent speakers, at three several places of meeting. When wo left at eight o'clock, Mr. Ewinu wns addressing an immense multitude which thronged the main street as far in ench direction as his strong voice could bo made to extend.

Now see how this beautiful system nC I.ocofoco financier, will work uponjbo stockholders. The ordinary expenses of our city Banks for sil- aries of their office, snd clerks, house rent, postage, ,vc, aa we learn by a reference to one or those Ranks, is about one and a half per cent on their capital The tax to the Stale, by this law, ia a half per rent., nut is suiicci to De increased at the will of the l-e.-islaliire. The expenses of ihe Bank Com-mtsstntiers. the State Reoister.the County Recorder, the publishing ozcn would prohahly amount to onn half per cent more. Then there is to be a safety fund tn be created from the capital stock of the Banks. We aro not told what is tn be the amount of this fund, but wo know that no fund would be of any villus, as a safety fond, which would yield less than a half per cent The account of profit and loss, then, would stand thus : Per cent.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPT. 28, 1842- The Climax of UlTrn.rjr Itlrnrincllr " Lepand Byinglon tam loudly railed for, aildresHOtl tho meeting in a manierly trnin uf eloquence for almut an hour and a half, during which, by request of some of bin friends, he showed the ultcr falsity of a mv "lory which tins been very industriously circulated in the Whig paper, charging him with moving that a petition be sent to hell. As all motiont made in thr House, arc recorded in the Journal, il can be proved by the Journal that il is a lnwc fabrication of llio Whiff. I Ic' further iiaied that it was noi his usual practice to notice any of these Whig slander, and he should nol have done so in the prcaent insliiiuc, had il not been to rom-nly with the advice of soino of his friends, but dial in future ho should not condescend to notice any of their indecent ribaldry."We copy the above from the Chillicotlie Advertiser, the Loco Foco organ in the Koaa Representative district If Byington really stated whut it is alleged he did, we have only to to say that mendacity and brazen-faced impudence con ro no farther, Stich a denial out-Heroda-IIerod. Not only did Byingtan make tho remark charged upon him, but he knows that not less titan fitVy members of the House of both parties, besides a considerable number of spectators, know full tvol, that in disclaiming the purentago of such an expression, he utters a wilful, gross and notorious falsehood that he publishes himself to the whole State as a most unblushing and outrageous liar! Byington equivocates about this mutter, although the lie he utters is not the less direct and palpable. Ho pretends that he did not mope that acertain petition should bo sent to Hell." It was never charged upon him that lie made the simple and nuked motion to that effect. His object, however, is to be understood as stamping the whole story as a slander and misrepresentation. In this attempt, however, he cannot succeed. To the original ofTenco, he now superadds tho meanness of endeavoring to escape its odium by denying a fact susceptible of tho clearest proof, and by falsely imputing falsehood to others, in exposing hi peccadilloes to the world. We wore ourselves in the House when tho difficulty arose upon the reception of Tapp's petition fur a divorce. The wrangling continued between Mc-Nulty, Spalding and Byington for an hour or two, aud the morning Kesaion was protracted fur into the afternoon. We left tho house in tho midst of the debate, and had time to get our dinner and return thereto before it was closed. We were present, aud heard Byington's enquiry of the Speaker, whether the motion which he wished to put would be in order. On coming away, whitut every thing was f'riisli in our recollection, wo prepared nn article for tins paper, under the head of " The Stale of Ohio again Hixgra-cean in tho latter part of which the occurrence in the House wus referred to an follows: " Before ihc rnnrnmjr session was over, another disorderly scene was got up cxrhititcly ainimc; the members of die majority. Mr. M( itiliy Ua presented a petition for a divorce, on tho reception ot Hindi a iiielio.i of order wan raised. The reading of the petition with the paper anucxrd wat call- el for, which bein interrupted bv Mr. minlon, Mr. Mc.Nal-tv boan the rradnnf himself. The Hpcuker dwiilcd IkiI llm House mi (flit dixMUi4e with the refilling, tnmi which Mr. Mr V appealed uiifi proceeded U auiffU ht reason al leniflh.

Wanting a ipiarler to one, a reccts was moved by Mr. McNully, but his parly friends voted it down. He then Rave notice, that such of the mi'iiitwn as wihed lo ret their dinners tnitrhl no for litem, as ho intended to oncupv the (loor long enough for them lo do so. Mibi quenily. it t ill re sei'n. by rcfercuce to our regular rrjtoris, that Mr. l inif-lon added another plume to hi i p, m a member of the legislative body, by inq.Hriii" if it wmtld be in order In wmv fluti the petition be tent to 1141!

We have already published the words used in this disgraceful exhibition, but we will do so again in this connexion, in tho exact language of the reporter:"Mr. MeNulty nl) presenled a pHiiiun fmm Nnlhrutirl Tapp, proving lor a Hi. orre Iron, his wife Mary Tapp, whirl, after toine'clcliale, was nceived " Mr. MrNultv railed for Ihe rending; of the petition and aerumpnnyiiiff documents, which thu chair derided lo lie out of unli-r, " Mr. McN. took an nppral, and proceeded lo read the doe. umcnts in Mipp"l of hi .unit inn wlim lie was derided In be mil of order, and tltereiiKiii luok a second apeal but mb-seiientlv withdrew Imi1,. " Mr. " inpion inquired if it would be in order lo niovv that the r-etifion he tent to IIKIX ! ' Mr. Mi 'Nnliy moved thai the prnltemnn from Pikt be ap printed iprrial mtuenrer for its drtpatrh." This occurred in the House on Saturday. On Monday the above report, and our editorial remarks, were published in the .State Journal, and attracted the general observation and reprobation of the Whig press throughout the State. From that moment until the present, not a word has been lisped by Byington himself, his friend Mednry, or any other human being by way of contradicting or palliating the profane language and levity imputed to him and McNully, ai members of a legislative body, bound to some observance of tho rules of decency and decorum. Is there a man in the State, who believes that those individuals and the pirty would have permitted such a statement to go forth to the world, without correction or disclaimer, if it bad not been literally true, and susceptible of the most irrefragable testimony ? Byington has tho cllVontery to refer to an additional cirrumstnnce to corroborate his assertion, by adverting to the J our nils, and pretending that because his motion was not put on record, he could not have made it. Now, we h ive to remark again, it was never charged that Byington actuilly made the motion it is only stated tint ho rose and enquired if it would be in order to make such a motion. The Speakor pronounced his motion out of order, aud it was not entered on tho journals, because it was a simple inquiry addressed to tho Senker, and therefore not a proper subject of record ; or if it had betm, would have been doubtless suppressed for its irrelevancy. Byington know nil this perfectly well. Nobody denies Mr. McNnlty'a disptny of wit, in moving tli at B)ington ' should he tho bearer of the despatch f and yet h heroin consists its point or application, if Byington had not uUerod the remark imputed to him. Wo are not certain but that we attach ton much importance to this matter, by treating it so much in detail yet the reckless assurance with which Byington dares to deny a fuel known to so many respectable persons, and by so many of his own political friends, to be literally true, would seem to call for a full replication. We conclude oy branding the cape -grace as d wilful ani deliberate mr, if the statement put forth in the Advertiser is published by hit authority, and he must be content to wear the badge which will comugn him to the contompt and acorn of all honorable and right minded men, tu whatsoever party or class they may belong.

Tho People will give him a "certificate, which Mr. Spalding can never again obtain from those whose confidence ho so basely be' t raved. The Whigs of Geauga have unanimously agreed to support Seabuat Fohd fur the Senate, and John P. CofiVKBsa for the House both Revolutionist and TWror." The Whigs of llclmes have nominated Jim it Aa- Moa for the Senate, from the District of Holme and fuses r was the latter county having previously nominated tliecandidalafor representative. The Whigs of Erie and Huron have nominated Johw Fuller, of the former county, and Samuf.l Atherton. 2d of the latter for Representative. Messrs. Root and Cooke both declined being re turned to the Legislature, as they undoubtedly would have been, had they been willing to accept of nom inations, Wo believe the Whigs have completed their nom inations in the several counties and districts, although we have yet to hear from Stark, Portage, Greene, and possibly one or two others. In Butler, the Whigs nominate no candidate for Representatives, and we are without any information of what they intend to do in Perry, Monroe and Coshocton. A I-oiig Mint. The StatoKmanlust evening contains a very glowing account of a meeting at Houston, Shelby co.,on the 22d inst, where a gentleman who was pouted by the "Patrick Henry of the West, in 1830, as "a liar and a scoundrel," for his calumnies against the Patriot Harrison, addressed the people assembled on the occasion. The orator is represented as having been excrutiatlngly severe upon Gov. Cor win, for his neglect of duty in not ordering an election to fill the vacancy occasioned by the " attempt al retiftna- tion" alluded to in the missives from Speakers Far-an and Spalding to the Executive, on the 12th of August. The Statesman's correspondent says the number present was " variously estimated at from fifteen to Uccniij-five hundred! the latter probably the nearest. The Loco Focos have got on their multiplying glasses. Thus far their efforts to raise large meetings have proved entire failures the endeavor at Tiffin which was so fur outstripped by the Whigs, being their most successful attempt To let our readers know exactly what took place, at Houston, we copy the following account from the Shelby Aurora : THE LOCOFOCO MASS MEETING AT HOUSTON. While Ihe Wh'sr are every where proclaiming Hint their Mini Meeting Uw present year far exceed tlmo of III 10, in point of immliers, our Loco opponent oii(ht to be Allowed lo boast a little occasionally for ia the way of Renins; up meetings, they this veur certainly eclipse all their former doings in faihireg.

For the Ohio EJiato Journal. I.nrd Oil. As this new article of commerce must become of grnatiniwrtanco to the agricultural interests of the West, and move a source of profit not only to those engaged in its manufacture but of great wealth to the country, sumo lacis nun iniormaiiun wiui regard to its introduction and manufacture, may possess interest at this time. Tho uniiinfacture of lard oil w:is first commenced in this State, at Cincinnati. There are now three manufacturers in that city, the most extensive is that of Messrs. It. W. Lee &. Co., who manufacture from 12 to 15 barrels of oi) daily. This oil is warranted to be equal to nny sperm oil, nd has the bust character ot any oil tnnrle lucre. There arc two manufacturers at Cleveland, who make a good nrticlo; thrro is also one manufactory at t'ortsmouili; these have all commence!) the business within thf past year. Mr. John II, Hmith,of Brook-lin, New York, is tho oldest manufacturer of Lard Oil in tho United States, he having been engaged in its manufacture ubout three yearn. After making vftrions improvements iu its manufacture, in April, lol l, he obtained letters ratcnt tor having invented new and useful improvement in the manner ot separating from emh other the clniite and stearine which are contained in lard, by means ot wmcli improved process the operation is much facilitated, and the products tiro obtained in n high degree of purity." A process tor separating elaine and stearine from u:ich oilier has been in mo for many years in cho- trv, but trorn its increased cost it could not be applied to manufacturing purpose The following are the relative constituent! of bird and spermaceti; Carbon, Hydrogen, Ox verm, I.nrd 7!i;0 1l,lvri !I,'"I8 Spermaceti 7!), 5 lt.ti 8K bird manufacture.! by Mr. Smith'- process yields iO pirts of oil and 40 of stearine. Winter or Fall lard oil can be made as well as Summer, ami etpial to the bent uporiii of either kind. From the stearine made train the first prea.-nuL', c nulled are made equal ii quality to l-illow candles: train the second pro:s- iii?, or by llifi use of u Hydraulic press, htcunne is obtained for ntnkinjj candles etpial in quality tn the best sperm. Most of those now enjnped in the manufacture of lard oil have had little practical experi ence, hence some complnints have been mnde in Cincinnati, from Uie s,ile of an inferior article, re Uniir from experiments in mnnulactuiiui?, or trorn pushing it into market in n crude state ; and it will prob ihly he found thtt much of tho oil that has been made in tho summer will not answer for burning in the fall or winter, from the imperfect process of sep-eralinjr the elaine and stearine. In tho first intro duction ot lard oil into ine, it is important that its merits should ho fairly tested, and that those who engage in its manufacture should commence the bus iness with all tho practical experience that can be bt:iiricd. With regard to tho demand there will be for tlin nle nf oil. anion eatinutn mitv ha nuule frnm the quantity of sperm and whale oil imported into the United Htatcs yoirlyr In 18:17 ilin imports of sperm ml wan iti'iMJ barrels; and ot whaio oil VI-MI0 barrels.

(M cents per gallon. Ah the quant it v of oil im ported his been on the increase for the lojt lew years, especially of sperm oil fitrthe use of the various manufacture of h uul and, should the introduction of lard oil reduce the price of oils it will ensure creator importations, without rlm materially attcctinp; tho whale tUbcries which are of so much importance to the country. As lard oil can be made bv Mr. .Smith's process equal iu quality to tho best sperm, for Winter, Fall, or Summer uso.it will boused pen-orally for burning, n it can be afforded cheaper tluin sperm. As it is cual tn olive nil foroilinp wool, the woolen manufacturers will use it as coming cheap- It will also be orontit into peneral use tor all kinds of machinery and rail ronds from its bcinp less expensive, ami having no unpleasant smell. It has also been fount! equal tn the best brown oil for I n nners use, nnd is preferred by those who nave tried it. Thus it will bo seen that there must be a demand equal to any supply that may be at present thrown into market; and the Fnrmers of the West may here see an extended field of profit before them in feeding hops, thus atmnnp a market tor their corn, when all the distilleries nf the country shall be turn cd into manufactories of lard oil.

The undersigned, the minority of the committee appointed lo investigate" the settlement and accounts of Richard Staddenas Superintendent of ihe National Road, nowreimrtj Thnt the committee have given to the subject all the attmttion, which t io ahortwss of the session, and the limited Mmo allowed for tho investigation ivould permit. AHhotighthefxamini-tinn has not for thce renttons, been bv any menus full and satisfactory, it has been sutlicietiL in the opinion of the minority, to make tho necessity for a more foil and thorough investigation, a matter that admit of no doubt r or the purpose nt nwkintrtnts necessity Rpparent, anu also to am in nny lutnrc m- qnirv that may bo instituted, it is believed that it will he proper to malie statements ot the result ol the partial investigation mnde by the committee. 1 he accounts of Mr. KtanMen wore nnirinnlly pre sented to Mr. nates as the acting Commissioner of that jfortinn of the Public Works, for settlement. They were referred by him to A. S. Chew, Esq, of Ihe City of Columbus, and Mr. Stadden was instructed to make his settlement with him. Mr. St ad den claimed credits on his settlement which Mr. Chew refused to allow, and Mr.. Bites refused to allow hut-accounts unless he could satisfy Mr. Chew that they were corrprt, or satisfy htm that Mr. Chow was in error, which it seems he failed to do. Trie cotiste- ipicnce was, tint the accounts were not settled until after Mr. Dates went out of office. Mr. Spencer haj since taken chirpe of this portion of the Public Works, and upon his order. Mr Stidden s pipers h ive been riven up to him for settlement with tho Hoard of Public Works, by whom the accounts have since been selth'd. I'll" difficulties that prevented a settlement with Mr. Chew, were, as the undersigned is informed by Mr. Chow, st. That Mr. Rtidden claimed credit for a receirt for J? 100.00 from a Mr. Rnhinsnn, the execution of which was denmd bv Rohtnon. lid. That Sindden rlnim 'd credit for a rereipt from John Tomlinson for frJMH, for which StatMen gave him n certihr nte that that nmoun was due from the road fund. which hns since hpen paid by Mr. Patterson, who succeeded Mr. Htodden as Superintendent of the National Road. Md. Tint Stndden claimed credit for receipt from Thomas McShano nmntintin? to ff'111.3(;, whpn in fact he had only paid him $:lr'l,of, for which he also had a receipt for which he claimed credit. As to the first of theso items, it npnoired frum an examination of Mr. Htndden's vouchers tint he was allowed n credit nf 100,00 for a receipt purporting to be execntpd hy Robinson. An affidavit of Roh- inson'a was also on file denving the execution of tho receipt at a rrrript, though he does not positively dc-nv the genuineness of the signature. At the time of tho cxerttlion of the receipt. Robinson lived near Ktnn, some 1(1 miles east of Columbus on the National Road. He has since movpd to the State of New York and consequently could not be brought before the committer. Mr. Stnddcn represents him as a man destitute of character, whose oath is entitled to no credit. The committeo have had no means of ascertaining the truth of litis representation. But aa the nfiidavit is entirely expnito, and Mr. Slndden has never had sn opportunity of cross-examining him. it is believed that this is not a sufficient foundation for a charge of official misconduct without additional testimony. An to the error in the account of Tomlinson, it wis found by reference to Mr. Sudden's vouchers, that he had rwpipts nnd a errdil for S'i!..! for money paid Mr, Tomlinson as Stiperintcndant of repaint on 'he road. Tho committee also had a sfso nent r f Mr. Tom-linson's scmiinr, mnde nut by himself, lie charges the rmd with C7H7.44 for work done en tlte madi given Stadden credit for cVW.Wl for money pnid htm at sundry limns, and for a certificate nf mnuev due front Ihe'roid to be paid bv Mr. Patterson Hfl, nn which he says Mr. Stadden afterwards pnid him . 1.100, which was- endorsed on the certificate. The balance of itlHH has since been piid by Mr. Patterson. The correctness of Mr. Tomlinsnn's statement of the account is established to the satisfne- tion of the minority of the committee hy the fact (hat Iho amount shown to be due upon the certificate tn be paid by Mr. Patterson, ajreea precisely with the amount winch Mr, Patterson paid, if Ibis bo Ihe case, Mr. Tomlinson has received 15,00 more than is doe to him. (which is denied hy his account,) or Mr. Stadden has credit for 15.00 mom than he hns paid. Mr. Tomlinson now resides in Pauldinir county, and consequently could not be brought hefore the committee in time to avail themselves or his testimony during the present session. As tn the accounts ol aicrmano, the committee have before them a balance sheet, or statement of Mr. Sta dden's account as he made it, and for settlement with Mr. Chew, in which he has credit for !ll 1 ;17 which according tn lite written tttatnment of McShane (the correctness of which wn admitted by Mr. Stadden) he had given duplicate receipts fur in small sums. Upon Staddcn's representation that it waa necessary for him to have them to m ike hi settlement with tho Hoard of Public Works, though he had not paid him that amount of money. That afterward, upon settlement with Stndden it waa ascertained that he had received W13i, for which he gave Stadden a single receipt. Thnt Stadden then ton up one set of the original duplicate receipts, nnd Uon being asked why ho did not cancel tho others, said as ono set were destroyed he could not use tho others and they would he useful to him in making up his accounts. This statement of Mr. Staddcn's account crediting him with these receipt for ?41117, which ho admits is not a proper credit hut was claimed by mistake, leaves a balance of IH,(i0 due to Stadden. It was fmin 1 howover, upon examining his voucher, upon which his settlement was made with the Hoard of Public Worka, that ho wa no credited with the receipts from Mr Shane for 8111.37, but with tho rpenpt for g:iS-1,nfl only which is admitted on all hands to he a proper credit, and which wis also included tn his account as mult) and presented to Mr. Chaw, It appeared mwevor that notwithstanding this deduction from he credit side of the account, there waa still a balance in his fnvoron his settlement with Uie Hoard f 170,00 which has been paid out of the State freasurv. The minority of tho committee could not very well understand how a deduction of $411,37 from Mr. Sudden's credit, should only reduce the balance due to him $6,nU Mr. Stadden did not leetn to be able to furtmh any satisfactory explana tion of the difficulty. The process by which this esult was obtained, is furnished by the testimony ol Mr. Patterson, the present Su Deri men dant. It ap pears that when this error was discovered in Mr. Staddcn's credits, and the amount of it deducted, that he also discovered an error on tho other sido of the account amounting to $412,01. This waa a charge Mr. Stadden had made against himself for money paid by Mr. Patterson to Stewart oi Osborn, on certificates given by Stadden to Win, Stiarwalt and a Mr. Temple for money due them from the road, for which Mr. Stadden had taken receipts with which he was credited as he supposed in his account ; and hence the amount paid by Mr. Patterson was a proper charge against him. 1 his led to an investigation of the amount will) which ho was credited for money paid to Stairwalt and Temple. This, however, could amount to no'h-ing without some evidence of the amount of work they had done, and the amount of money they had received. Mr. Stadden said he had a book showing he amount of work done by each of them. The book was produced, and upon reference tn Slairwalt's tccount, it wns found that several erasures and inter- ineattons had been made, which Mr. Stadden said had been done for the purpose of correcting errors. It was found, however, upon comparin? tho amount of work done by Stnirwnlt with tho aggregate imount of receipts credited to Stadden and Patter son lor money pud on account of work none by Stairwnlt, that the receipt amounted to $150 more tnan me work. Mr. Stadden then presented Temple's account, on a loose shept of paper, saying that it corrected the iialance winch appeared against mm lnHtainvnit s account It was insisted that the book would furnish the most authenticated statement of Temple's account. The account was then produced in the book, and found to be still more mutilated than Stair wait's. I he first credit for work done bv Temple wns writ ten on a line from which a previous entry had been erased. The credit as it now stands, is for 50 rods of stono, at $5 per rod, which was originally carried out correctly $350.00; Out over the figures ''250,00," there his since been entered in hrire figured, and with very black Ink, the figures "!;i50,iM ;" o that the credit as it. now stands upon Mr. Staddcn's book, is 50 rods of stone at $5 per rod : 350,01. Numerous nlterat'oni appeared in other parts of tho account, and the minority nf vour committee were so well satisfied tint the book wnH entitled to no cred it, that tho receipts from Mr. Stadden nnd Mr. Pat terson were not compared with the amount of work tor which J emple had been credited. But Mr. Stn'lden was informed that there was no other mode of teatim? the nccurrtcy of these vouch ts from Temple and Stiarwalt, but by bringing them befon tho committee and bavins their statement under oath of the amount of work they had done md (ho amount of money thnv bad received. Stiarwalt wns accordingly fubpomaed to appear netore the committee. As the undereiL'iieil nnd some suspicions tint there was collusion between Stadden ami Stinrwnlf. nn interrogatory was put to him as to tnenimum ol work he inn done, the price, and the imniiiit of money h" received from Stndden, and the amount of receipts ho gave. It was supposed if he 'ltd not state the amount of work truly, thnt it could he ennfrnd e'ed by other testimony ; and that if he mswered tint truly snd mnde nny error in his statement of the amount of money he received, tint tho nmwer ilself would furnish iho means of dt'tectin? the error. His answer that he had hauled and broke grew for one mile al 4 per rod ; at $3,50 tor another, nnn at tor another, was supposed at the time to be Ftiflicient. Hnf the undersigned has since ascertained tint this in fact furnishes no tes, as the md spoken of in the answer is ascertained from the number of cubic feet contained in it, and not from lineal measurement, Thstlhe numborof cubic feet would of course depend upon the thickness and width of stone required in the repair of the road, which would of course heunenual on different miles. and on different parts of the same mile. Mr. Stiarwalt also states ho received certificates of work, snd ordrrs &c. nn several persons amount-tnir to about $?;10, fur which he gave Stadden no receipt, sod tint ho received about $1 180 for which ho gnvo him receipt. This would seem upon its face tn show that Stiarwalt had done work enough to eoverthe receipts of Mr. Stndden nnd Mr. Patterson tolh, and consequently that Mr. Stadden nupht not to be charged with anv money paid by Mr. Pnt'er son for work done bv Stiarwalt. It is certainly very remarKaoip however, il he never hail any receipts for this $'.'30, tint be should ever at anv time have tVm?ht of charging himself with it as he did in Iih urt account. It is also proper Instate that Mr. Pat terson proposed in nnswpr to an interrogatory put to lum, to state that Mr. Ktiarwnlr told him lhat he had riven Mr. Ktaddnn a receipt for $.'10, whichSt:ar-w-ill says he did not give a receipt for, but it wns accounted by the majority as hearsay, thnmrh it was insisted by th minority, that it was competent for the purnoipol impeaching Stiarwalt It win also appear, from the testimony ot Mr. Tat' lersor, that a question put to him was overruled, on the ir round of irrelevancy. The nnswer to this nnes- tion would have shown that a certificate given by Mr. Stadden for 100 00 wnji presented tn Mr. Pat terson for ptyment, and lhat upon inquiry he found mat ine stone nid not in tnct been nirmshed by t ie person to whom the certificate was eiven; but tl at Ihey had been furnished by tho Cnitel State, an I were lying in a pile hy the side of the road, at the umo mo road wns surrendered by U s dcnernl u vernment to the State, Whether Mr. Stndden tsmk a receipt for this certificate, and if he did, whether he has credit for it or not, the committee have not had time to examine. It mav also be remarked hero lhat at tho commencement of the investigation, and through tho whole of it. Mr. StndnVn was with Uie committeo, and made such statements and explana tions as lie saw proper, 1 his of course was proper, anil wns not objected to. Hut it waa also insistpd that as these accounts wero p'aced in the hands of Mr. Chew, by the Board of Public Works, that he should bo permitted to come before the Committee, on the nan oi mo pinto, anil give audi osplanition. aa his knowledge of tho accounla, and especially the di puien noma, would enable him lo make. Or if this was not dono, that he should bo broii jht before the Coinmiitco as a witness, tn alfto the lacta which too.i place al 'he frequent nttcn p s made by Inmand Stadden to ."Uie these accounts.

Now see how this beautiful system nC I.ocofoco financier, will work uponjbo stockholders. The ordinary expenses of our city Banks for sil- aries of their office, snd clerks, house rent, postage, ,vc, aa we learn by a reference to one or those Ranks, is about one and a half per cent on their capital The tax to the Stale, by this law, ia a half per rent., nut is suiicci to De increased at the will of the l-e.-islaliire. The expenses of ihe Bank Com-mtsstntiers. the State Reoister.the County Recorder, the publishing ozcn would prohahly amount to onn half per cent more. Then there is to be a safety fund tn be created from the capital stock of the Banks. We aro not told what is tn be the amount of this fund, but wo know that no fund would be of any villus, as a safety fond, which would yield less than a half per cent The account of profit and loss, then, would stand thus : Per cent.
