RAyENNA, OHIO:
wednesday, December o. Is40,

% The new tariff law went into opera
ton on the first inst According to the
predictions of the feds, we should have been
overwhelmed with blue ruin long ago.
We have been told that even in propect
of its passage the country would be ruined
past all hope of recovery; and surely be-
fore it should go into effect, the "wicked
Administration" would see the error of its
ways But we have lived to see the law
in force, without perceiving any great
revulsion in nature. The earth revolves
upon its axis as usual-day and night, sum-
mer and winter, seed-time and harvest will
succeed each other as usual
the earth will probably continue to TEEN
with abundance-the waters will continue
to run as usual, bearing upon their bosom
the productions Of our soil, returning to the
toiler the reward for his toll. Men will
eat, drink and dress as usual. AS yet all
things seem to continue in their usual
course, and there is as little prospect of the
realization Of the predictions of the feds now
as there was when the doleful cry was FIRST
sounded.

The ORGANIZATION OF THE SENATE
The Journal thinks that, it may be they,
(the democrats,) will have to be INDUCED
Gin the election Of democratic officers"
One would naturally be surprised at the
unusual innocence of the Journal, were
it not, that by following its article to the
last paragraph the following reason can be
found for it. ..r.
We suppose, moreover, from what we
learn, that the Locofocos will have clear
majority on the fist meeting Of the Senate
owing to the fact that one Whig Senator
will not probably be present. In that
event, the Locofocos will rightfully have
the means Of themselves efecting an
immediate organization of that branch Of
the Legislature in their own way; which,
to our view, is preferable to contest and
scramble for the small crumbs of 'sthe
spoils" consequent upon that organization.
What wonderful condecension, and kind.
