OHIO LEGISLATURE.
The Senate-ExCitiDg Debate-The
Revolution.
DECEMBER IL

After some Intellectual attempts to elect
q Sergeant-at- Arms,i in which the Senate,
as heretofore, stood equally divided, l8
democrats voting for James Arnold, and le
wings and free soilers for Columbia Down
ing, the balloling was suspended to allow
Mr.. Archbold to introduce n resolution to
be found in another column, and to which
we call The attention of the reader.
In the discussion which followed, in
which Messrs. Archbold and Whitman
took part, the subject matter Of the Difficult.
ties in the House, occupied a prominent
place. Clearly and frankly were the whigs
given to understand the effect Of their mad
riotous and Revolutionary acts. The Rev.
olution, once commenced, cannot be stayed,
and as was remarked, upon the heads oil
those who commence it, be all the conse.
quences.
The debate was listened to by large
and breathless audience. The speeches,
q very meagre report of which is given,
will be published in full.
Mr.. Goddard gave notice Of his intention
TO reply.
The HOuSe-The DiS0rganiZers-The
consequences.
In the House again the mob returned, and
in O tone still more subdued than on any
previous dav, went through the burlesque
of legislation for few minutes and then
left again for parts Of the town unknown
Were it not for the designs Of these men
to subvert and to destroy the Legislative
power Of the government, they and their
acts would be viewed with the contempt
and ridicule they so richly merit. But
urged on by band Of desperadoes, who
keep behind the scene, there is more OF
knavery than of folly in their acts, and
the fear is entertained that the patience Of
the democracy, sorely tried, may be vast
ed, and the punishment these phtricdes de-
serve, will be meted out to them.
With charges against the democratic
candidate OF u refusal, if elected, to take
their seats, the contest opened and closed,
and federalism was defeated. They are
now guilty of the very crimes they charged
upon their opponents, and that too, with
out an excuse to palliate their conduct. ln
this, as in other matters, they have shown
a recklessness oftheir wcrd-of their honor
and Of duty, without n|parallel in:the annals
Of infamy. To back this, they were elect
ed to perform certain duties. They hold on
to Office, and yet they refuse to act, and
this refusal is intended to annihilate that
department Of the State Government, with
ou, which the other parts suffer annihila.
tion. Their mad career may be checked
in the manner they least expect.
The state has suffered enough Of dis.
grace by these disorganizers-enough OF
r.dicule has been thrown upon Legislation
to cause an abatement Of respect for laws,
and to mike the patriot and the man of
peace tremble for the consequences Of a

Arrival of the Canada.

NEW YORK. Dec. 4.
The Canada arrived to day, bringing I
days later dates from Liverpool.
ENGLAND.-The election of General
Taylor to the Presidency of the United
States, has difused unspeakable satislac.
ton in Great Britain. The manly tone
which pervaded his addresses to his coun.
trymen, marking him as the advocate Of
peace, has propitiated the people of that
country, generally.
FFANcE In Paris, as the time for the
election approaches, the people begin to
feel alarmed; and are removing from the
capital until the result Of the election is
known. An insurrection of the Red Re.
publicans and Socialists is feared.
M. de. Lamartine is expected to arrive
at the Capital before the election.
A great number of the Assembly have
urged Gen. Cavuignac to submit to the
Assembly project of law for closing
the clubs; but he refused to comply.
Funds still remain at low figures.
GERNANY.-Dusseldorf has been declar-
ed in state of siege. On the 22nd the
civic guard were ordered TO give up their
arms, and the troops occupied all the
squares.
The Arch Duke John, Regent of Ger.
many, has published strong address to
the German people,in which he deprecates
the late proceedings in Prussia, and com.
mands peace among all true Germans.
AusTRIA.-Masses have been perform
ed ut Vienna for the repose of the soul Of

assassinate the Duke Of Modena. The
culprit was seized and imprisoned.

The Plot was Laid Before Meeting.

We are authorized to say, that On last
November, at the GaIlipolis Court, Mr..
Holcomb, the notorious leader Of the riot
ers in the House, said in conversation
about the party character of the Ohio Leg
islature, that 'By Cd there should be
no organization unless the wings have tho
power" This senles the premeditated
course Of the wings, and proves that their
riotous conduct was planned long before

Senate Election Of Seargeant-at-
Arms.

This morning the Senate resumed its
ballotings for Seargeant-at- Arms, and alter
one or two unsuccessful efforts, Mr.. Blake
rose, as the organ of the free soil party,
and announced that they had heretofore
voted for the whig candidate; they would
now present candidate and stick to him
until victory lighted upon their banners
He then announced MIR. Jones as candi-
date, and six ofthese who had heretofore
supported Mr.. Downlngrallied on the new
free soil candidate, and the vote stood-lor
Arnold, (democrat) ls; for Downing,
(whig,) II, and for Jones, (free soil,) g.,
and they continued to ballot for two or
three times, when on the 18th ballot the
vote stood-for Arnold, l9; Downing IL;
and Jones, 6. Mr.. Arnold having received
a majority Of ali the votes given was de-
clared duly elected, and entered upon the
discharge of his duties. For eight days
the Senate has been engaged in electing
three officers, and we give them Joy on
the accomplishment of the task.
The Heuse-The same old Sterotyped
Farce.
1his morning at lO O'Clock, Inc wing
disorganizing members having crawied out
Of their nests, made their appearance in the
Hall of the House. Like actors tired .,ot
at a repetition Of the same farce, and
knowing that they, not then acting,was the
subject of sport, the whole affair was tame
and lifeless. The mob at their heels show
ed not the wanted spirit, and the whole at.
fair reminded one Of a schoolboy scene, of
truants, anxious yet afraid to return to
their book and to their duty, fearing the
ridicule Of their companions, more than
they feared to do evil We would that the
whole people of Ohio could see the farce,
played by these puppets, at the bidding Of
their masters in midnight council assem-.
bled, for the sight would be one that would
cause the constituents Of these men, TO blush
at the choice they made for Representa-.
tives, and to glory in the calaness, firmness
and patriotism of the AZ members, who
are determined at each and at every haz-
ard, to protect the people in the enjoy.
ments of their rights. Ohio Statesman.

4 Fact that ought to be Known.

We have no doubt the Legislature would
have been organized at once when old
father Bigger promptly informed the House,
that the mode and manner Of organizing it,
was that of custom from the earliest period
of the State; was it not for the influence
of the state officers here. They are the
guilty advisers of the recusant members,
and rather than have their accounts exam.
ined, they would see ruin and anarchy O.
