"Am sd Coaroar." 1 1 is now being
demonstrated that no one individual in
the loyal States Lm furnished ns much aid
and comfort to the rebtl;, as Mr. Secreta
ry Cameron has in his report to Coiu'ress.
it has been oscenain.id that .Jeff. Iavis
i Co,, baye procured a copy of Mr. Came
ron's Report as publihliod in the New
Yoik Trilum; and has had it published
for generul circuliitiou through the South
em States, especially in the loyal sections
of North Caroliuia, Teiinersee, Kentucky
and Missouri, in order to convinc j the
Union-loving portion cf tlio citizens in
thofe States, that tlio object of the War is
' the emancipation of the tlaves, which
4hey well know must result in insurrec
tion. The circulation of this document
among tlio seceded States will have more
elFvct in changing the minds of the peo
ple thre, than all the reports and proc
Imnutiuiis issued by the Confederate uu
thoritie!', and is being circulated for thit
purpose. Another bit cf '"uid and com
fort" fur Suces.siondom, is found in the
fact I tat Congress has refused to re-adopt

Again, you appear seriously opposed to

) cii'sabie because I he arm had been disnp-
.roved ol oen at it less price than that
excure, lor the arm was practically use
less until altered, and to elleet that delay
was inevitable, and the purchase was
made without any examination as to the
( nraetibility of improvement by alteration
The Coiuniilleo found a lar"e number
of these tti insat Cairo, and, notwithstand
ing the urgent necessity of nrras at that
point, whol rcvimetits, even on the eve
of tho battle ot Pelinont, were almost des
titute of arms. These arms wero lelt in
the boxes in which they wero shipped
from ihe arsenal at St. Louis.
Improvidence and disregard f-f reasona
bis economy on Ihe part of the Govern
ment on the one hand, and a spir t ol
rulhleis peculation on the other, have
made this d.n'ract, and it is a question of
pnblic juitice how fur it shall lie carried
into ellect. Tho committee deem it their
duty to present Ihe HwlJ for the consider
ution of tho Home, without any special
recommendation.
Another transaction in the purchase of
arms, to winen t ne attention oi ine com
mittee has been dircr'ed. is the purchase
of five thousand of Hall's carbines by Gen
Fremont, through Simon SU vens, of Peiin-
xyivania. This transaction is, in tome
respects, of the same character with the
purchase of iho A'.i-trian muskets, but
tn'ich more remarkable in illustrating the
improvidence of gentlemen prominently
connected with the public trvice, the
corrupt system of brokerage by which the
Treipurv has been plundered, and the
; r.rostitmion of public contideneo to pup
poses of individual aggrandisement,
