The banks there included ARE those which
had delegates present. Three others
not included, are now paying specie, and
which We included in our list Of Saturday
evening. We Teglst to hear that many Of
the Wing political leaders are in a great

ton, and compel them, If possible, to en-.
ter the political field, and make common
cause with whIggeEy,in defence Oflaw and

For ourselves, we have no advice 10
give. The Banks en- pursue their own
course; and il they listen 10 the Wing
defenders, and eater the political arena as
in 1910, they must take the politicians
fare, as we'll as feed the corrupt political
hacks that have eaten out the substance
Of about one half Of them already. We

Mr.. Wade presented 10 tho Senate,
this morning, the proceedings Of aUa6O-
liliOR meeting held Of Hudson, Summit
county Ohio, sustaining John Quincy Ad-
ans, in his course in Congress, in psesen-
ting q petition 10 dissolve the Union, and
asking the legislature to IesciDd their res
olutiOn Of censure, which was laid on the
table By 4 party vote. Mr.. Wade prsyed
for petition to dissolve the Union. We
suppose this comes a. near to il as he
could get. We have no objections to this
course, as the strength Of this Union aud
the peoples attachment to II, may a. we'll
be tested now, as any other time. We
shall not shrink, bat embrace the offered
test Of that great question.
Mr.. ByingtOn presented petition from
citizens of Clark county, asking the pub
licatiOn Of $50, 900 copies Of Mr.. TaylOrs
speech in the Senate on banks and bank
