thta State bounty but we had only begun to raise our quotas when the ap propriation was I believe that so far L'f getting an additional volunteer is concerned it fa very questionable whether this expenditure has so comphshed anything and now this Legislature will ea that ail the men who have volunteered since thq State bounty ceased to be paid for want of money will request that an appropriation be made sufficient to Day them the same amonst that the others have received and for this purpose not less than seven hundred thousand dollars would be required I shall ats not recommend it though it will be very difficult fws you to give a satisfactory reason for a refusal which would not bo equally a reason fig rejecting the law tat itself In my judgment this whole business of boun a ties has been carried to a preat exce reuniting tn 'g with "great demoralization of thetas peocdeand with no corresponding benefit to the I government or to the soldier himself' Reasonable bounties
