PUBLIC PRINTER.
I It is supposed that Gov. Porter thinks
that he has •.headed" his enemies at last;
by refusing to approve the bonds of the
printers elected at the late Session, and that
he can now appoint a pri 'ter to do the
fork until the meeting of the next Logis

perhaps the Legislature when it meets,
might consider the G ivernor's conduct un
authorized, illegal and tyrannical, and re-1
fuse to pay the printer that lie may appoint,
