TIE BANKS,

Woure told chat ihero are 90 new banks.
and eigh, yet doing business under old char
ters. All together, they have a capital of
$5, ,S26,677 A, and had on the I'd Nov. last,
circulation Of $5,674,160, From these
figures it will be seen that the entire ciren.
lstion of these institutions, was $l5l ,90S a
less than thoir capital We now ask, Of what
special benefit were they 10 tho people2--
of Ohio? Did they Gnrnsb the means to
purchase our crop of wheat just harvested,
and which has already gone forward TO feed
i,he starving millions Of Europea Where is
the answer TO these questions? Ask any
man--every man engaged in business, aud
he will tell you at once, that the paper of the
Ohio banks was as but drop in the bucket
towards purchasing our astonishing harvest
of 1916, to say nothing of the quantities of
corn, pork, &C., already sent and yet 10 send
Asls The farmer too, whether, when he calls
fot me money for his produce, if he is not
presented with Indiana, Wheeling, Erie, Sus-
quchannah, or some other ragged rags, with
out why or wherefore? But Wy these

Sthle, and have lees than the nominal amount
Of their capital. Why ure we no, told the
whole truth? Why is il not plainly stated
that these institutions have a way Of max
ing their profits on bills Of exchange, &c,
without issuing their paper, and that at the
end of the year they divide large profits upon
their capital, upon which profits alsne they
pay taxi Why keep them in existence
under the specious prstence Of furnishing
currency for the people Of Ohio, vixen tho
figures themselves, Sci down in the message,
give the lie 10 the assertion! His Excel
lency is 10 grave--;oo fatherly, when he
woald hasp us ever hereafter silently submit
TO thes keuce OF these privileged asaitu-
lions, thMpay upon their profits, while every
thing else pays upon lis value--if their
friends have succeeded twice in carrying the
State. Indeed, and because al TIVE success
sive elections the banks have carried Ohio,
we are 10 take it as the immn,ably fixed, and
unaltcrable decree Of fate, that they are
right, and must forever remain2 Must be
left in peace, to ride down every thing in
suhscrviency 10 their interests and wills,
(:sithout the power in the people to even ques-
lion their utility or csnsliu,ionaity!

We publish on our first page, the speech
Of our Reprcsenta,ise Hon. Benz. F. Met
CALF, in defence Of the present war with
Mexico. This question was forced upon
the al,cnlion-oi tho Legislature by the wings
in every form: first in Gov, Bartley's TRADE
next IN the slang denunciaiions Of Bebb,
aud lastly these were recapitulated in resol-
Jl,ions by "a Mr.. Truesdale, a Jealous Feder-

Of blackcning the fair fame Of his country,
In defence Of the Conslitutonality and JUS

solutions were introduced, supported BY o
Inus,erly argument from the mover in theil
defence, and the able vindication by Mr.

The OI,ia Legislature.

There has nothing of importance tran
spircd during The past week. Various reso'
luions of enquiry have been proposed and
carried, of ths result of which we will ac-
quaint our readers.
Mr. Reemcln has proposed the election of
the Canal Board by the people, a measure
which will, as muter Of course, receive the
Incorporating opposition Of the Federal
party, whose rulo &c action is TO remove pow
or as far as possibIe rom the people, rather
than increase official responsibility.
Quite number ofpetitions are presented
TO have law pussed giving the townships
control of the license question.
The debate on the Mexican war was
closed by motion Of Mr. Backus, (Whg)
that the resolutions be referred to the Com
mi,tee OIL federal relations; which will doubt
less remodel them in approved federal style

The Printing OF the senate.

The new editor Of the Ohio State Journal
beats the State for conslimmate cffroniery,
and promises to exceed even Bebb in un-
scrupulous disregard Of facts. In introduc-
ing to his readers long trade by Coombs,
against the vote Of the Senate appointing
Med,ry printer 10 that body, he talks of the
tax on tea, of broken constitutions, violat'
ed faith, &c. &c, till one would really be-
lieve it must be more than year or two
since Wing legislature, in violation of4aw,
and in utter contempt of the ssnc'i'y oSeon-
racts Gas held by whigs,) took the printing of
the State from the Same Meda'y and gave
it to Scott, meEely because the latter was d
Wing partzan! What was wholly prope,
and right then is wrong and Infamous now

That's the whole difference, and furnishes {
