COLUMBUS, Jan. 5. lsis.
The Western world Western life, and Western
legislation furnish many subjects for amusement
and for reflection. About a week or ten days ago
an Infamous and detestabie petition was received
and referred to the Standing Committee on the Ju-
dietary, in the Senate OF our Legislature, praying
the Legislature to ask Hon. Thomas Corwin TO re-
sign lis seat in the Senate Of the United States
and 10 confne him in the Penitentiary until the
close OF the present War The majority Of tho
Committee having said petition in charge made

who signed and forwarded that petition, have been

of the presentation of the one from Rlchand, Dr.
Odds took occasion 10 deliver himself OF one OF the
greatest TRADES OF Billingsgate and malignant per
sonsl dotraction ever yet had the misfortune to
hear fall from the lips Of any man. He is the man
who. according to Sam Medary, died for want OF
political principles best Improvisation OF
demagogues that be found IN the w estern
country. He has had no equal in the Legislature OF
Ohio since the day OF Byington. and may we, IN
the infinite goodness Of Divine Providence never
again be disgraccd with such heartless political
villains ia the halls OF our State Legislature The
ATTEMPTS at personal assault by such men only add
10 the shining virtues Of the noble patriotic high
minded and eloquent Corwin. While his reviers
will be remembered only for their niamy, he Will
live in the hearts of his countrymcn
