Full returns have not been received this
year, but 81 counties, which last year had
only ,O97, 1854, now have 1,372,113, and a
proportionate increase throughout the State,
would make the whole number for the pres

than last year. The numbers. above do not
include pigs under SIX months on the LIST of
June last. This table proves clearly that the
number of hogs in Ohio this year is vastly
larger than last year.

Threaded Bank Notes.-Messrs. Crane &
Co., of Dalton, Massachusetts,, manufacturers
OF bank note paper, have invented very sim
pie and efficient method of preserving the de-
nomination OF bill from alteration. Threads
OF sill or cotton are arranged in parallel lines,
lengthwise with the note, and embodied in the
substance of the paper during its manufacture
A one dollar bill has one thread, and one is
added for each denomination up to five dollars,
then ten dollar bill has six threads, anotheris
added for twenty, fifty, one hundred, five hun
dred, and one thousand the last having eleven
threads. 1t must be very difficult, if not i'm
possible, to insert another thread after the note
is finished, and as the threads marks its value
az distinctly as the figures, the chances of a
successful alteration are at least greatly d.
minished. The Mechanics Banking Associa-
ton of this city, and several of the banks in
tits State and at the East, have ordered the
threaded paper, and it will probably come in
to general use.-N. 7. Journal Of Commerce

English Times in this one respect-there ought
to be no aims for Ireland. 1t is an imprudent

begging. If bat one voice in Ireland should
be raised against it, that voice shall be ours.
Tomorrow. tomorrow, over broad England,
Scotland and Wales, the people who devour
our substance from year to year, are to offer
up their canting thanksgiving for our "abun-
dant harvests," and to fling US certain crumbs
and crusts of it for charity. Now, if we may
be supposed, in any degree, to speak for our
countrymen, we put up our petition thus -
Keep your aims, we canting robbers-button
your pockets upon the Irish plumber that is in
thenl-and let the begging box pass on. Meth
er as loans nor as aims will we take that
which is our own. We spit upon the benev-
olence that robs US of apound and filings back

will-ohese will be your thanks!

SANTA ANNA.-Ths singular man, whose
life has certainly been an extraordinary one,
IS once more rejected, denounced, and branded
rs traitor, by his countrymen. 1t will be
recollected that he, some time since, resigned
his office of President of the Mexican Re-
public" and now he is deprived of the COM
mand of the army by order of the Mexican
Secretary of War. He is virtually under ar
rest, to answer the charges of cowardice and
treason. We find in the late New Orleans
papers his latest manifesto to the Mexican
people, in which he repels the charges made
against him. The document, like all that we
have ever seen from his pen, is written with
ingenuity and ability The reader will be
struck with the singular appeal which he
makes in the following paragraph =
q conjure Generals Taylor and Scott, and
every individual in their armies, to declare
upon their honors whether the Mexican Cen
eral, who has combatted against them in the
north, and in the east, and even in the centre
of the republic, until the 10Th of the present
month, has not fulfilled all his duties to his

de11y their guilt, their military fault. The

whether Gen Wool can legally dismiss-dis-
honorably dismiss from the service, any COM
missoned officer by means of his simple fiat,
, without violating law And if not, were
lieutenants Singeltary and Fender justly -
dismissed from the service? Would the OBJ
