    THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1839.

    Maurice Cannon entered upon the duties of the office bto which he had been appointed, viz: Receiver of Publie Monies for the district of lands subject to sale at aNew Orleans, on the 29th day of September, 1833. Hecontinued to administer them to tlie satisfaction of thegovernment up to April 1-2,1836, when the Examinerfor the Department of the Land office made the follow-ing certificate upon the books of the said Cannon.-S"I certify having carefull) examined this Register ofReceipts from No. 19 to No. 550 inclusive, and havefound the number of acres and suma correct, with theexception of a few discrepancies which have been aor-rected. New Orleans, April l, 1836. Signed-V. M.GAntCser, Examiner." In the course of the samemonth. Mr. Cannon resigned the office of Receiver-

    t The Government permitted him to remain in ollice tipto the 281th of October, 1836, when Mr. Carter took hisa place. It will be perceived that Mr. Garesch6i on thea 12th of April, 1836, was perfectly satisfied with Mr.Cannon's accounts. On the date of his cectilicate toSthat effect, the whole amount that had been paid anddeposited by Mr. Cannon from his entry into office,was $19,381,42, and ihe whole amount of sales of pubhSli lands was $49,072,16, leaving a balance in favor ofthe Receiver of $309,2. On the 19th of June, 1836,the law authorizing the entry of certain lands in Loui_ iana,by virtue ofspecified pr.-emption rights, expired.There was then no legal receiver of public monies, Mr.Cannon having resigned. Hundrilds of persons werein the city of New Orleans, prepared to pay fur thelands in question. A convention of thle Commission-.er for the sales of these lands, was called by Mr. Can-

    r. non. They were of opinion that a book should ben opened for the entry of tile purchasers' names, lands,S&c., and that the money should be received by tile0: acting receiver, so soon as the Register shoula certify

    Sto the titles, they to bear date from the 19th of June.From these sales, the payments for which continued tobe made for tilhe space of nearly four imotlhiis, Mr. Cun-non received the sum of $283,183,22. The Departnrentcontinred to recognize Mr. Cannon as the receiver ofmonies after his resignation, as appears from orders is-sued to him from the GeCneral LiUnd Office to dishursesundry monies. On tile 3d of September, 1836, EthanA. Brown, Commissioner, commanded Mr. Cannon topay to the proprietor of the Bee for advertising the sumol $311.

    Mr. Cannon wishing to dischierge himself of the res'ponsibilty to the Government of holding its monies,wrote to tli department that lie was ready to pay overall the lunds in his Iands so soon as his accounts wereproperly audited and approved. His req:lest was comrnplied with, vz :--His accounts were all audited andapproved, and on the 17thl ol Decemnier, Mr. Cannonpaid into the Commercial Bank of Aew Orleans to theorder of John Camupbell, Treasurer of the U. States, tiewhole balance in liis hands, being $278,810,83, andtook receipts ofMr. Duplessis, the Cashier, in tripli-cate. Thus terminated, as Mr. Cannon thought, hisconnection with the Governmcnt, satisfactorily to hisemployers.

    But they who serve the corrupt adminstration, now ino power, should remember that they serve a junta of un.

    7 psincipled men, whose sole object is to fatten upon tile7 pablic purse and punish those, who having received8 oappointments, do not cry huzza for their masters. In

    1 the report ofthe Secretary of the Treasury for 1838, an23 the authority of the Madisonian, Mr. Cannon is set

    a cldownas a defiulter for $278,840,83, the ex et amountof the balance paid over by him to the Government, inDecemherl836. The Madisonin published Mr. Cannon asa deraulter to this amount. Mr. Cannou dis-proved the statement at the time, and the Madisooniantpublished his reply. Nothing further was done, until

    to the 8th January, 1839, wher there emanated from t hiGeneral Land Office, a statement of the ditferences oc.eurring in the adjustment of the accounts of MauriceAll Cannon, late a receiver of public money at New Orleansfrom the 21st November, 1833 to the 30th Junr, 1836.

    or Had we room, we wouldl give a copy of this statement

    rn as furnishings specimen ofthe bungling mode in whichor accounts are kept at Washington. Nearly all the items

    charged against Mlr. Cannon in this statemeit, beardate previous to the certificate ofMr. Garesch . Mr.

    ta Cannon received from Mr. Garesche, an assurance that

    b the report olthe Examiner had been duly made to theed department. Here then are discoveries of errors, even

    to sflerthoexamination ofMr. Gareschb. Nor is this all.!-, The department adjusted Mr. Cannon's accounts up to

    ithe timu he resgncd the seals into Mr. Carter's hands,to and in virtue of tlis adjustment, he paid tilhe balance heh leld, over to the Commercial Bank. What must bethe mode ofiadjusting accounts at Washington, whenerrors are discovered more than ayear afterwards in the

    a settleme-nt ? Here in a sample of tihe mde by whichour rnlers and their under officers do their clut to theSappointees of the Government.

    Th'e statement of the difirence is avowed to beup to the 30th of June, 11 38, andyet inthat statementthere is a charge made against Mr. Cannon for a bill of$311 paid, in September, 1836, to the proprietorof theas Bet, on the plea that no voucher had,been transmittedto Washington. Now, would you believe it, reader,Swhin we tell you that ite (late of the bill made out by

    at Mr. Bayonagainst tile land office here, is the 6th July,1835, and that the date of Etham Brown's order to pay

    . it is 3rd September, 1836, while the ldate of the receipt ofthe money by Mr. Bayou's is Septetmber 24th, 1836?Yet we have the document lying before us certifying tothese facts!

    The amount of the balances against Mr. Cannon, isre $41,798 47. The department then deducts fromn thisamount nearly all the items charged against him, mak-Sing 30,539 19. Thus a balance of $1259 28 is broughtagainst Mr. Cannon, to recoverwhich, with interest fromt the 30th of June, 1836, a petition was filed on the 18thof February, 1839, by the U. S. District Attorney in tile

    to District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana,against said Cannon and his surities, praying that tilhedefendants be cited, and after due proceedings he con-

    Sdeamned to pay tle plaintilf tile snu aforesaid. Soicetime since a report of this case appeared in the Truet American. M•r. Coaon produced vouchers for everyitem hroughtt against him, and for once an honest manprevailed against our corrutpt government.In the Globe if lay 2 is a jesuitical article upon this

    SCannon case. It avers that in Woodbury's report,made in January. 1838, document I I I. page 9. the Ial.,sane aainsC Mr. Canton is stated al $1371i. II;w then

    accommodations are as handsome as any bo,v.The beau iful Santa Rosa Sound, and Cihocta.

    watchie Bay present the most interesting steam na.I vigation n the South-boing at the sametime

    Sperfectly land locked.The Teams are not surpassed on any route in the

    country ; the drivers, to a man, careful and attentive.The bridges heretofore dangerous have b en

    newly built, so that high waters do not inter ereThe eating houses have been mostly changed,

    and are now as good as on any road in tie South.It is generally knowl that the excellence and

    hardness of the roads enable the teams ut all sea-asons to make great spoed. Their smoothnt,ss se-

    cures the travei:cr from the ordinary fatigue ofa stage travelling.The Line is now crrving its passengers from

    -Augusta to Mobile in four days and twelveI hourt, or to Nrw Orleans in four days and twentyhours. Going to Augusta, the line is six days; nd seven hours. Tht time actually employed in

    t travelling is the same as in the other direction, buto the difference of time on tile route, is caused by a

    day being lost in Pensacola, which, however, iswell repaid by the opportunity it gives ofseeingthe Navy Yard, the old Spanish Forts, etc. Thetraveller also sleeps at Macon, and again at War.tenton. This arrangement will continue till the

    , travel turns northward, when the line will be thea smefrom Mobile to Augusta, as it is now in theother direction.

    This Advertisement contains a plain statemente of fiets, the accuracy of which tlh proprietors

    gaurantee to each passenger in the penalty of hisk- stage fare.

    H ARRISON'S SPECIFIC OINTMENT-T 'o great celebrity of this unrivalled Comn.

    position, especially in the Northern States, leavesthe propriotor but little need to say any thing inits favor; for it has been generally conceded to it,that it is beyond all comparison the be st remedyfor external complaints that has ever been disco.vered. Indeed the speed and certainty ofits opo.rati fs have the appearance ofmiracles ; as nlcers,w.-unds, corns, fever sores, childblains, white swol.lings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites &c. imme.diately yield to its apparently superhuman influ.ence Thus if properly applied it will remove aninveterate corn, or break and heal a bile in fivedays, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in twoweeks and the most desperate eases of whiteswelling that can be imagined, have been destroyedby it in less than two months. In the bites ofpoisonous reptiles its officacy is truly surprising, aneven in the bite of a rabid dog, for if applied intime, its powers of attraction are so wonderful thatthey will at once arrest the poison, and thus pre.vent it from pervading the system. It is likewisegreatly superior to any medicine heretofore disco.vered for the clihfud backs and limbs of horses, fortetters, ring worms, chapped lips, and in short forevery external bodily evil that may fall to the lotof man or beast.

    The propritor has received at least a thousandcertificates and othir documents, Lin fav.,r ofhis

    S" Specific Ointment," upwards of a hundred ofwhich were written by respectable members oftheMedical Faculty, all breathing the same eulogyand satisfaction.
