EEW GOODS.

1t is noted fact that whenever men do
and can afford to advertise, their GOODS are
always CHEAPEST, and their selection
much large and better than those who do not
advertise. Whenever you see man who
does not advertise, you can set it down for
granted that he has very small quantity Of
GOODS, and those very dear.
Col. J. McCutchen and D. g. w. Ayres, have
the largest best and cheapest stock of GOODS
ever brought into this market Examine
the advertisements Of the above gentlemen
and see what a great quantity of NEW
GOODS they have on hand, for which they
will receive little of every thing.

OHIO LEGISLATURES.

The Legislature will convene on Monda,
December lst The wings have majority or
joint ballot sufficient to carry any reckless
scheme through that may be bro-gnt forward
IN either bra.""ll. Now the people will be
able to see how much good the wings will dc
in establishing high prices and making mon
ey plenty. The oft repeated promises have
in every case where wings were permitted tc
rule, been broken; and yet after all, they are
again put in power. How long the false
promises of the party how in power will reign
in all probability this winter will determine
We need not be surprised if they make such
alterations in the representative districts as to
deprive the democracy Of every member they
can possibly do. The course pursued by
the wings heretofore, is sufficient to cause
almost every honest man to abandon the idea
Of receiving justice at their hands. The
whole responsibility of the acts of this win
tcr's legislation must rest upon the majority
The Statesman says:
"There will be ah attempt made, we un-
derstand, to modify the banking law of the
last session, and to make some of its restric-
tions, and the provisions intended to secure
the public against mere spectators in the
currency, a dead letter. This will undoubt-
edly meet with pretty stout resistance at
the hands of some portion of the wings, but
whether such resistance will be sufficiently
strong to prevent an effectual modification,
must be left for time to determine. We only
known that the alterations alluded to are mat
tiers of common conversation, and that the
wings appear to be so infatuated by their re-
cent triumph, and so unaware of its real cahs-
es, that they think they are at liberty to do
about as they please in all things"
The wings have ever contended for mis-
cradle rotten system of banking and opposed
every measure that was calculated to make
them honest (if any such measure there can
be) and now as on all former occasion, they
think the present rotten system does not guar
antee to them, enough dishonest advantages
Let every man who may be guilty of voting for
any measure granting more privileges to the
banks than they now have, be stamped sa man
void of every principle of honesty, and only
fit to nhabit in place Of Legislative halls, the
cells Of the State prison. Such should be
the case SO long as "ustice should be render
ed to whom justice is DUE"
The state printing will occupy some length
of time this winter again, it is likely not more
than half the session. Is it not saving money
to the State for whig Legislature to spend
two or three winters in violating contract,
taking the printing from Col. Medary and
paying as much or more to others for the
same, and they drawing pay all this time' 1t
certainly is with vengeance.
