OHIO LEGISLATURE.

In tho House, on Friday tho 10Th inst
the committee 70 whom was referred the
resolution of Nr, Olds, calling upon The banks
for certain Information in reference TO bills
of exchange, &c, was reported back, Witt
proposition to s!iiko ont tho word 'requir.
ed and insert 'roquested.' This amend
ment met with strong opposition from the
democrats, and was sustained by the wings.
1t is humilliating, indeed, to sec representa-
tivcs ofthe people succumb TO the bank pow
er. Insert the word requested and they
will do just as they please, and laugh at the
Legislature; but they should be required TO
do it by the law-making power.-Ihe wings
evidently wish TO screen them, knowing, as
they do, that this resolution would bring out
some things that would expose infamy Of the
deepest hue: it was laid OH tho table.---Ohio

parade and ceremony, and We have otmuch con-

a resolution calling on tho Auditor Of State
for information in reference TO the State
indebtedness. On the lGlh, the Auditor
reportsd that the Fund Commissioners had
borrowed m.ley, but au thorc was no svi'
dencs Of il in his office, hs could not give
the required information. The law requires
o record Of the loans contracted by the state
to be placed in the Auditors office; yot the
Fund Commissioners have violated the IaT,
and Mr.. Kelley very reluctantly admitted
this fact, on motion made by Mr.. Edgcrton
calling upon the.Canal Fund Commissioners
to report what sum or sums they mad borrow

To OUR PArRoNs.--A new year s tmo
for new resolutions, and we have made ono =,
which is, hereafter TO publish on Thursdays.
Our reason for this 10 that finishing our bus'
ness in the beginning ofthe week has proved
as awkward az going backwards, and has occa.
stoned irsgularity. We hope that those who
arc friendly to our journal, and whose hearts
are opened 10 deeds Of benevolonce by these
holiday times, will try and favor US with a
"Christnas gitt" in the shape Of addition
al subscribers; which would be decidedly Il
cheap and effiisient substitute for the turkeys
which we should have received-but that our
condition of bachelorheod prevented.
There is class Of freebooters, whose
dspredations we deplore. We hope that
they will seize this occasion TO repent, and
take the paper to signalize their repentance; /;
we mean those who have all along been to-
king their neighbor's. A man told us the other
day TO stop his paper-and gave as O reason
that his neighbors took it from tho Office, and
from his house frequently, before he had read
i, himself, and he thought that if they would
only take and pay for their own newspapers il
would be decidedly more respectable. An
opinion in which wo fully concurod.-
We would say TO such, borrow your neigh
bsr's horse OR his Wagon, his plough Or his
axe, when no wants them, but when you
carry off his paper first be sure he has read
il. Nulf sed.

BROKE JArL.-By an advertisement in TO-
days paper it will be seen that Wm. Holmes,
a countcfeiter, and Nelson and Major
Curtis, indicted for murder, made thor escape
from tho county Jail, on Saturday last, by
suttng through tho wall, The escape was
ingeniously planned. Tho inside of tho
coils Of the Jail were plankod with two inch
oak plank; this was sawed through, and the
marks of tho cutting oblitoratod by com
position of oil and backing, which made it
resemble tho dingy wood 50 perfectly, that
detection was noxt to impossible. With
hinge brokon off tho dungeon door the
brick was removed, and escape made The
Sheriff is no way 10 blamo-as the cells
Of the Jail are above ground, with single
walls, it is almost certain that desperate
villain will get cut. No precautions can
keep them confined in prison like ours, as
the event has proved. Every exertion has
been made for their recovery by the ShoriG
but hitherto without success.
