COLUMBUS, Dec. 90, Ie47.
Mr.. JoHNsoN--Accident having Detained me
a few days al the Capital VI this aouushing
State, venture 10 give you a brief sketch Of
what IS doing here. The Legislature is in ses-
sion, and the manner in which il seems 10 be
doing up The work for the people indicates that
OhlO's onward destination can scarcely be anti
ciPated. Her great variety Of resources cannot
be fairly developed for many years, and yet she
takes the rank second in The sisIerhoOd Of
States. A few years ago Ohio was without any
Improvements whatevor,--an almost unbroken
forest covered her domain. Now she has her
thousand miles Of Canal, her Rail Road, con.
Meeting the lake and river, and her almost innu-
merable other improvemenls,--al yielding to
her treasury the astonishing sum Of eight hun.
dFed and Iweniy-seVen thousand dollars. The.
finances ofthe State are certainly in most pros
porous condition. The Sinking aud School
Funds, that have for years been plundered by
the loco misrule Of the State, are now replenish-
ed by the sound Wing Legislation which has
governed her for the last few years. A short
period Of correct Legislation, will give her The
entire lead Of all Western States.
The Apportionment Bill has not yet been in
Iroduced, but will be in few days. No pariic.
uIar change will be made in your part Of the
State.
Much speculation is going on with regard TO
the next Governor for take it for granted that
ifIhe Wings do their duty the nominee of their
Convention will be the Governor. Among the
most prominent candidates are Col. COLLIER and
Gen. FoRD, Of the North and Eastern portions
of the STATE. The controversy between the
friends of the different candidates is becoming,
to say the least Of it, indiscreel; but nothing
will be done that cannot be easily explained and
compromised.
think that the troubles Of the locos will ex-
coed the powers of reconciliation. The feuds
kindled at their County meetings, indicates a
war Of extcrmnalon to either the friends or
enemies ofihe Wilmot Proviso, and think that
it requires no name beneath the picture TO read
the overthrow of the Provso.men in the State.
The truth is, the parry in Ohio are the subjects
Of Southern diclalion aud they cannot, and
dare not disregard it. 1t is generally admitted
that the "SoGs" will not number force enough
to make a resistance. As things come to light,
will advise you, during the short time will
remain here.

About the middle oflast month Presden, Polk

thai the last Congress, within few days Of The
close ofthe term for which Us members were
elected, passed anacI making provision for Ger.
tain works OF that character. The President, in
his determined opposition to all Northern and
Western interests, pat The bill in his pocket, and
now inacls upon the present Congress, which
had no connection whatever with that act--no
power or right 10 reconsider or take a vote upon
this ridiculous "Veto Messuge!"
THIS strange aud unprecedented procedure Of
the President could not be considered other than
REGAL DIcTATIoN 10 the Representatives Of a
Republican people! II met, however, with
signal rebuke al their hands. Mr.. Wentworth,
in the House, submitted the following resolu-
lion, which was read by the Clerk
Resolved, That the General Government has the
power to cons:ructsuch harbors and improve such
rivers as are necessary and proper" for the potec-
uon OF our navy and our commerce. ami also for the
delences OF our country.
Afer the ordinary routine Of proceeding, the
twain question was put "Wil the House agree
10 the said rcsoIulionl" and the result was a
glorious one-l38 votes in the affirmative, and
only 81 in the negative. Thus the House Of
Representatives has declared that the Govern
ment does possess the indentica power which
the President declares il does mol possess !; and
Thal is more aud better, this affirmation is made
by vote sufficiently emphatic to remove all
cause ofScrious apprehension from the REGAL
NEro-bens 80 over and above tco-thTdS L
Such acts as these are calculated 10 inspire new
hopes for the Republic. They show that there
is a spirit of independence yet remaining, which
Executive power has not over.awcd, and which
Executive patronage has failed to bribc.
EVERY WmG MEMBER from Ohio was at his
post, and recorded his vote in favor Of Ihe roSo-
mion,-on the side orlhc people and their in
,ctcsts. Their constituents will honor them for
il. But mark The Rcncgades! Four locolocos
from this State were found scryilc enough to

worthy. But may be permitted 10 ask that
gentleman, why it became necessary TO denounce
me in the strong language he has thought prop

oppose, but deny his right TO abuse me. After
