glish journal of the said session, in which
there appears an item of $917 3711 for an
alleged balance due him for printing for
the House of Representatives at the ses
sion of 1840; And whereas, it appears
that said item was allowed by the commit
tee on accounts, and passed by the Senate
without detection ; Therefore,
Resolved, That the State Treasurer be
requested to demand forthwith from John
11. Bratton. the repayment of the said
sum of $917 37i, thus improperly drawn
tro►n the Treasury, and that he report the
result to the Senate.
A lengthy discussion ensued on this res
cind" in the course of which the pro
of investigating all the accounts of
the printers since 1835-36 was urged,
and a motion to this effect was made by
Air. liecktnan. The motion was lost,
and the resolution was finally referred to
the committee on accounts, by a vote of
]7 to 12.
The Speaker laid before the Senate a
communication from the Secretary of the
Commonwealth informing the Senate that
lie hail appointed Thomas L. Wilson, to
be Deputy Secratary of the Common

been approved by the Governor.
Adjourned.

ANOTHER MESSAOE.
The following extraordinary Message
was received from the Governor:
To Me House of Ilepresentatites of the
Commonwealth of Penns Omuta.
GENTLNMEN :-1 have the honor to ac
knowledge the receipt of the resolution of
the House of Representatives of the 11th
instant, requesting me to transmit to that
body the annual reports of the Auditor
General, State Treasurer and Canal Com
missioners.
It will, at all times, give me pleasure to
comply with the request of the House of
Representatives, when I can do so con
sistently with my sense of public duty;
but in this instance, a compliance on my
part, with the resolution of that body,
would be a manifest violation of public
duty tor which 1 would be liable to be
held amenable' to the proper authorities.
The Bth section of the act of the Gen
eral Assembly, of the 24th March, 1843,
entitled "An Act to create permanently
ti e o tiv c e if State Printer," directs the
Governor to deliver these reports to the
printers elected under the provisions of
that act. The reasons which preclude a
performance of that duty are stated in my
an nual message.
The resolution of the House, therefore,
asks me to disregard a positive injunction
of law.
\V hilst the House asks for the reports I
as delivered to me by the proper officers,
I have this morning received a resolution
of the Senate, requesting me to furnish
that body with these very reports. It is
thus manifest, that if 1 were even to con
sent to violate the law, it would be impracti
e able to grant the requests of both Houses.
The documents are voluminous, & it is
wholly impracticable for the Executive
self to furnish copies of them—there be
ing no clerk allowed him by law.
Allow me to reiterate my earnest desire
to comply with the requests of the Le
gislature, when the same are at all corn.
patible with law ; but it must be apparent
for the reasons stated, that I cannot com
ply, in this instance, with the resolution
of the House of Representatives.
DAVID R. PORTER.
EAECUTIVE CHAMBER,
January 12, 1844.
Mr. .Macroanus moved that the Mes
sage be referred to the committee on
Printing.
Mr. Snowden (Speaker) and Mr. Coop
er, spoke in reference to the Message
which they regarded as a most singular
and extraordinary document.
The Speaker in the course of his re
marks, urged the propriety of taking the
approval of the bonds of the printers out
of the Governor's hands and assigning the
duty to the Speakers of the two Houses.
Mr. Cooper said, it was altogether a
most strange document. This house had
made a call on the Executive, to transmit
to it, for its own information, certain pa
pers to enable it to legislate properly ; and
the Executive sends fur answer that he
will not transmit them, because the law
of the last session requires that he shall
furnish these documents to the State
Printer. Now, sir, it will be recollected
that he has refused, before this time, to
acknowledge the existence of any such
officer as the State Printer. He refuses.
in the first place, to recognize such
an officer as the State Printer- —withholds
from that functionary the documents that
ought to have been delivered to him, and
when the House calls upon the Governor
for the information that it ought to havere
ceived through the State Printer, he re
fuses to transmit it. Sir, is this not a most
extraordinary state of things ? and in
what terms shall we characterize such a
course of conduct as the Executive has
pursued in regard to this matter ? What
are our duties here ? To legislate for
the benefit of the people of this Common•
wealth. Well, in order to do so, it is ne
cessary that we should have such facts as
are necessarily communicated by the
various officers of the Commonwealth to
the Executive. We cannot legislate in
• telligently unless we are put in possession
of facts, and lie declined to furnish them
upon the frivolous pretext that he himself
has heretofore refused to perform his
duty.
He went on to review the facts in re
lation to the electing of State Printer,
and commented with just severity upon
the opinion of the learned and intelligent
Attorney General.
Jan. 12.
When Mr. C. closed. Mr. Macmanus
withdrew his motion, and Mr. Roumlort
submitted a joint resolution declaring the
bonds of the State Printers, now on file
in the Secretary's office, approved pro
vided the sureties agree to the same in a
communication to the Legislature.
Mr. R. moved to proceed to the con•
sideration of this resolution but the House
refused, yeas 44, nays 48.
Mr. Luring then submitted a resolution
requiring the speaker to approve the
bonds. Adjourned.
. -
SENATE:
A number of petitions, 4-c. were pre
sented,antl several private bills passed,
when,
On motion of Mr. Sullivan, the Senate
took up the bill entitled an Act to contin
ue the act graduating lands on which
the purchase money is due and unpaid to
the Commonwealth, which after some dis
cussion passed committee second reading
and consideration and Vali finally adopted.
Mr. M'Lanahan moved that the com
munication of the Governor, read in the
Senate yebterilay, relative to his inability
to furnish them with the annual reports
of the various departments of the Gov
ernment, in compliance with a resolution
of the Senate, be referred to the commit
tee on printing. Mr. M'L. accompanied
his motion with some remarks relative to
its propriety.
Mr..Cliainpneys moved to amend by re
ferring to a select committee, and after
considerable debate between Messrs.
Champneys Sterigere, M'Lanahan and
Sullivan, the amandment was disagreed
to and the original motion prevailed.
On motion of Mr. Spackinan, the San
ate took up the bill entitled An act author
izing the President and Managers of the
Philadelphia hisuraoce Company to wind
up their affairs and distribute the assets
among the stockholders, which passed
committee second reading and considera
tion, when its further consideration was
postponed. Adjourned.
HOUSE.
The Speaker presented the first annual
report of the Engineer on the Erie Canal
Company.
Mr. Lung presented a joint resolution
calling upon the Governor for the original
copies of the reports of the State Treas
urer, Auditor General and Canal Cum•
missioners, which was immediately taken
up in committee.
Mr. Roumfort opposed the motion, and
entered into a lengthy review of the
whole contest in regard to the printing,
and the extraordinary course of the Gov
ernor on the subject. He regarded it as
disgraceful to the legislature to make any
further appeals to the Executive for the
documents.
Mr. Bright moved to strike out the
Bth section of the State Printer law, and
request the Governor to transmit the doc-
uments to the House.
Mr. Laning moved to amend, to as•
sign the duty of approving the bonds to
the Speakers.
On motion of Mr. Toland the commit
tee rose, and the subject was taken up on
second reading.
Mr. Edson then moved that the Speak
ers he authorized to contract for giving
out the printiing to the lowest bidder.
Mr. Bally moved to amend that the
State Treasurer be authorized to approve
the bonds.
An animated debate arose on this mo
tion, in which Messrs Brady, Cooper and
11 , hitman participated. Mr. Cooper
made an able speech in defence of the
printers. He assumed the position that
the State had made a solemn contract
with the printers, which could not be
violated, and sustained it by an array of
unanswerable arguments.
The Senate was chiefly engaged in the
discussion of a joint resolution offered
by Mr. Sterigere, for a repeal of that
part of the State Printer law which re
quires the reports of the Heads of De
partments, In be made to the Governor,
and requiring the Governor to
furnish the reports for the present session
to the Legislature. The question was
finally postponed till Thursday next.
In the House a number of petitions and
resolutions were offered.

At 12 o'clock the Speaker and mem•
bers of the Senate were introduced, and
the Convention proceeded to the election

Smith 17—John Gilmore 2 and Edward
Shoemaker 1.

House Adjourned.

lution instructing the joint committee of
