OHIO Legislature.

The Columbus papers of Monday last
furnish us the sayings and doings of the
Legislature on the preceding Saturday
Some Of the most important bills Of the
session, that concerning the Liabilities
of the State, for example, was left 10 be
disposed Of until the ,veg last hour -
What was the fate orthe bill mentioned,
we are not advised; but, IN all probablIi
ty, it was literally crushed under the
weight oliII conceived and madly con-
nicling amendments. 1t is clear, from
the state Of the proceedings in the
House on Saturday evening, that the
seIf'aDased LocoGoco members felt deep
Iy the conviction that they were about
to conclude their Wintef's Legislation
without doing aught for the benefit Of
the State. 1t is arIentIy to'be hoped, as
as we'll for the honor as the interests OF
Ohio, that such set Of asses willtnever
again find their way 10 the capitol! The
list of Acts will be published as soon as
PossibIe-the effect of these acls The peo
pie begin TO feel /, and they will continue
to feel, until their blind and foolish re-
presenlatives shall be overwhelmed in
popular Indignation.

BANK OF MARIETTA.


This institution has made an assign.
menl OF lis effects to John Mills, Joseph
Holden and DOugldSS Putnam, in trust
TO pay and satisfy all demands against
the said Bank, aud distribute the residue
to Stockholders.
We understand that 1t is the design Of
the Trustees TO settle the It fairs of the
institution as speedily as possible. The
notes OGlhc Bank payable on demand
will be redeemed in specie, It demanded
and the currency notes will be paid in
currency. Thus it will be seen that the
holders OF Marietta Bank paper have no
occasion 10 fear either loss by reason Of
any want OF ability on the part of the
institution to redeem its issues, or thar
any delay will intervene before the re.
demplion will take place. 1t may there
fore be anticipated, that the step now
taken by the Bank will not depreCINte
the value Of its paper, but rather en-
chance it.
The reason for this measure is, as w
understand, the near approach of The tlmt
Of the expiration Of the charter, ind III,
absence Of any legislation authorizing
the Bank, after that time, Dan. |, ls43.

POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA.

l.
lust published by CARY g. HART, Philadel-
u phia, The Poets and Poetry of America, with an
Historical Introduction, by Rufus w. Grswold, in
large octave volume, handsomely printed fine pa
per- and illustrated by portraits of Bryant, Sprague-
Longfelow, Dana, and Halleck, and beautiful
vgnette.
This is the most valuable publication of the sea-
son. No collection of American poetry has ever
been made at all comparable TO this, whether we re-
gard the completeness of the work or the dis
played in the selection The work comprises seIec-
tons from eigh,p-eight Of Poets, whose produc-
lions are 'Pref,ced by neat biographies and in an
Appendix are contained selections from various Au-
thors who, without pretending to the rank of Poets
have yet written occasional verses. Where the poet
has published edition of his own oks the seec-
tons are compar ativey few; hot where the author
has left his works ofihemseves the extracts
have been more yoluninous. This is praisew othy
feature it preserves 10 us in collected FORM the
works of Whittier Sprague, and others. The long
est poems of Drake SFrague and Whit Ter, appear II
this collection We dismiss this national work with
the assurance that every American who loves hi
countrys muse, will possess himself Of an early copy.
