From the Ohio Statesman.
OHIO LEGISLATURE.
J anuary lS, 1912

We noticed last evening that Mr.. Walton
had introduced into tie Senate, 3 resolution,
inslructlng our representatives in Congress
10 urge the passage Of law 10 pay General
Jackson the 1000 fine imposed upon him
by a tory Judge, on his defence Of New Or
leans. We never heard more signal defence
than these able speakers Taylor and Walton
made, in behalf Of the old Hero and Statesman
now al the Hermitage. And never was the
true worth of that great man so we'll UNDER
stood as now, when all his predictions IN re>
gard TO BdGe and hs wicked measures are
now upon the county.
RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENT.
The bill, requiring resumption of specie
payments, came up in the Senate this morning
on its final passage. Mr. Taylor explained
that the 4th of March had been adopted, as
the day for full resumption, as it was believ~
ed; III at by that lime. the law having been pas
sed, aud the Auditor being required TO notify
them, they would all be nPprised Of what pUb-
lie opinion demanded; an unqualified resump'
ton. The notehoder has recourse by summa~
ry procs IS, for the passage Of the bill; but The
liquidation part of the bill, does not take place
until the 4lh of March. Mr.. Taylor com.
day brot en- through their party trammels, and
voled fur The bill with the democrats. He hoped
to see the same independent course pursued
to-day.
Mr.. Nash, one of the Directors of The Gal
lpoIs back, al the time of ts explosion, then
rose and opposed aot only the bill before the
Senate, bu resumption in general He was
very proper person for the Wings to put for
ward as the champion for an Irredeemable
currency! His practical 6nancierng, as expe-
rienced by the holders of galIIpo'is paper,
must aurely have peculiar charm for the people
of lhe State of Ohio. 1t was laughable to
hear Mr.. Nash tell the Senate tha, bank, in
state of suspension could issue more notes,
than one paying specie! We suppose that might
depend, il the banks were honest, on The
amonnt of specie in their vaults Take the
Gallipolis bank as an example, and Mr.. Nash
was corfetc2 VIVA! Nick BlddIe Of finan>

After Mr.. Nash closed his defence, of
perpetual state of suspenson-for his argus
ments amounted to nothing else, he attempt-
ed TO gloss them over, for they were the same
kind of arguments that have been used for the
last Eve years. A whig, it seems, does not
improve OV experience.
After Mr.. Nash had taken hiu seat. Mr..
HazeItine read an extract from their organ,
the Journal, on resumption, which made the
wings look two ways for Sunday These peo-
pie called. properly, federalIsts were in great
comihoton, motion, when recess was taken.
JUSTICE TO GENERAL JACKSON.
The resolution Of Mr.. Walton, 10 pay Gen.
Jackson The 1900 dollars; with in,etesta and
costs which passed the Senate yesterday,
came up in the House 10 day, passed bya par
ty vote, with TWO exceptions, We heard only
a part of the debate. The resolution was ably
sustained by Messrs. Meredith, Byina,on. Nj
Nulty, Wolcott and Henderson. 1t has beer
| fortunate that Ihs resolution has been inirodu'
ced, il has given the Federal or pseudo whis'
! chance 10 emit their torA bile Matthew Ly-
on was made an enemy TO his country, and al
fighting against it-.hus, those who opposed
the Alien and Sedion lava were denounced
as enemies Of their countryl And all the tories
and traitors that infested New Orleans, at th
time of The great victory, were converted int
pure patros-"Democrat Wings" Of cours
From language We heard, there eanno. be
doubt. that if war was TO take place belwee
this country and England that We should hn
these men as good patriots, as those acting a
spies for tho British al that time al New Or
leans, We are astonlshed that men repro
sen,iug Americans. should leak out such sen
tlments. '..- .-.-
