The committee conclude "that Captain Carrington's sympathies are divided, and that such men can not be trusted to repress the rebellion or to defend the Constitution and the laws." Lloyd Harrison, Second Lieutenant in Sherman's battery. Wm. H. Craig, already quoted more than once, swears that Lloyd Harrison was also appointed lieutenant under the patronage of the Adjutant-General. He went to Alexandria and enlisted in Shafer's company. He came back and boasted that he held a commission, notwithstanding he had enlisted in the rebel army. He was appointed a lieutenant through the influence of General Thomas. Says now he was drunk when he enlisted in the rebel army. T. J. Lugenbeel swears that Lloyd Harrison, second lieutenant in Sherman's battery, is generally regarded as a Secessionist. I have heard him utter Secession sentiments.

er that the new terms were accepted, and says that "Secretary Holt refuses to give me the guns." Lieut. Col. Maynadier speaks of this transaction as a mere bid on the part of Belknap, and declares that "not a single musket has been sold to Belknap at any price." According to the testimony of Col. Craig before the Military Committee, 100,000 muskets were sold to G. B. Lamar on the 24th day of November, 1860, 5,000 to the State of Mississippi on the 4th of December, and 5,000 to the State of Louisiana on the 15th of the same month. All these sales, then, occurred within less than a month after the removal of Colonel Craig and the appointment of Lieut. Col. Maynadier, and immediately subsequent to the appearance of Col. Craig's report, in which he protests against the sale of more small arms. Col. Craig states that only 50,000 of the 141,000 arms sold during Floyd's administration of the War Department were advertised as required by the law of 1825, and that he protested agains

nel Maynadier made no protest nor entered complaint in any manner; and, indeed, has not attempted to show that he was not fully conscious of the treasonable object of the sales to which he was privy. District Attorney Carrington. The case of District Attorney Carrington is dwelt on at some length. The evidence seems to show that last summer, while he was Captain of a volunteer company in Washington, (as well as District Attorney,) when his troops were ordered up to Seneca Mills, in Maryland, he refused to go, saying that "he would not invade his native State," and that he "could not lift his hand against his mother." At another time, he is charged with saying he "would not invade Virginia." Yet the evidence goes to show that he received his pay as Captain, and kept the office of District Attorney, given him by a member of a Republican Administration.

ad of the Ordnance Bureau, and on the 23d Maynadier was substituted in his place. The day preceding the appointment a proposition was made to Floyd by A. A. Belknap "to purchase of the Department from one to two hundred and fifty thousand of United States flint-locks and altered percussion muskets, and to have the same delivered to me or my agents in New York city. " This fact is taken from Belknap's evidence before the Military Committee of the last House of Representatives, report No. 85, wh a corrupt violation of law. The 20,000 last mentioned were sold to parties and to States in open or threatened rebellion against the Government, and the fact was as well known then that they were to be used against the Government of the United States as it is now. In the evidence of Belknap, he mentions George Sanders, a well-known traitor, as one of his advisers in the purchase of the 100,000 muskets. The whole conduct of Floyd leaves not a doubt that he believed he was making a sa

Belknap, and 20,000 to other parties, in violation of law, and to the great detriment of the public service, the object being to disarm the Government and to arm its rebel enemies. Lieutenant-Colonel Maynadier, in executing, or attempting to execute, the order of Floyd, for the transmission of 141 of the largest cannon from Pittsburg to the Gulf of Mexico, did it with the full knowledge that one of the forts was unfinished, and the other not even begun. It is scarcely less clear that Maynadier must have known or believed that the object of Floyd in giving the order was to disarm the Government, and to arm its rebel enemies. He is conceded to be one of the most intelligent men in the army, and has been in the Ordnance Department as assistant for nearby twenty years.--He speaks with evident pride of the confidence repo

This officer holds the responsible post of Assistant to the Chief of Ordnance. The principal charges affecting his loyalty are--first, that he was a party to the effort, in December, 1860, of John B. Floyd, then Secretary of War, to transfer cannon to the South, under the pretense of arming fortifications at Galveston and Ship Island, which, in fact, had no existence; but, in reality, to furnish the munitions of war for the intended rebellion; and, second, that he was privy to the sale, by Floyd, of 100,000 or more muskets to A.
