Mr. ROLLINS. I would suggest to the Gentfrom NewYork [Mr. gliamz] that the very course which he now proposes for us to follow has been the very course followed in the past; and after a most careful, thorough, and scrutinizing examination of this whole matter, the Committee of Accounts have come to the conclusion that the Government can save several 1,000 dollars perannum by adoptin the resolution proposed by the committee. do not believe there was any disposition on the part of the ComAccounts I know there was notto continue this office one single day unless it was for the interest of the Government. I say to the gentleman that at the outset I thought it would be best to abolish the othee. I commenced the examination with the eXpectation of arriving at that conclusion; but after a careful examination I changed my opinion, and the committee have unanimously reported this resolution, forwc believe that by doin so money may be saved to the Government. e believe it is a matter of economy to pass this resolution; and we believe that the gentleman who is now rforming the duties provided for by the resolution of last session will perform those duties in accordance with the proviso added to the resolution, and in good faith; and I have no doubt he will be willing to furnish a bond to this House to that effect. If those who succeed to our places here shall hereafter see fit togive additional compensation to whoever may discharge these duties, I do not know how we can bind them by any action we may take. They can do as they please. I do not expect that any resolution we may pass here will in any way bind on future House and if the Gentfrom NewYork [Mr. HALE] expects to accomplish any such result as that, I apprehend he will be entirely mistaken; he will not accomplish his object. I will state that our design is only to do what to us seems best to save money to the Government, and we believe the passage of this resolution will accomplish that object. I now move the previous question.
