There was no chance for his life but in

brandy had TO be given to produce even The

The noise and confusion at this juncture, may be
msgined. Our powers Of description are made
quats to the task Of describing it. Applause and
Kissing from the galleries accorded very harmoni-
ously with the tumult in the Hall. Mynheer Lei
ter strained his lungs in vocieratng the CRY of or
der;s yet was himself further removed from good
order than any Of those who surrounded him.
But We cannot pursue the erant course of the
Jewellers who would usurp the powers of Legislators,
aud bring odium upon the people. Nor is it neees-
sary. A few facts, however, must be recorded
The prime movers in this infamous transaction We
~ accurately estimated the character of the pseudo
chairman, n making him their paw in this affair
We doubt whether a more supple tool could be
found in the host OfunserupulOus marauders Who re-
paired to Colu bus, bent on the destruction of our
State Government. He wears well the dignity Of
his high station, too. The following small quota
tion from his HAPPY remarks, is all that we can
tind room for: "Now if the House will only let me
speak. Every certificate has been received by me,
aud have examined them allEand they are right.s
HE has examined them! And what authority has
HE to examine, and pronounce Judgment upon them!
None whatever. On the contrary, his arbitrary
assumption ofEthe quadruPle station of Repre-
sentative, Speaker, Clerk, and Committee on E.
lections, will meet the unqualified condemnation of
every rejecting man in the State.
In scenes, such as we have hastily attempted to
describe, the first five days Of the legislative session
have been spent; and the end is not yet!

The Disturbances at Columbus.

Now, that tumult and confusion are stalking a.
broad at the Capitol of the State, it may not be a.
miss to advert to the alleged causes of these dstur-
bances Our circumscribed limits, this week, will
compel us to be brief Several cases of contested
elections were known to exist. These, it was fear
ed might produce disturbances at the opening of
the session, unless'cool counsels prevailed.
! Another bone of contention, however, has COM
Pietely Overshadowed these. 1t is no less novel
than new. Gentlemen claim seats in the Legsla-
ture upon the alleged unconstutionality of the ve
ry law upon which they predicate their claim. Let
us consider this. Suppose, for the sake of argu-
ment, that the apportonment law is titution-
al! What then! If the law is invalid, all elcc-
tions held by its authority are invalid If one por-
tlon of it is contrary to the spirit and intent of the
constitution of the State, the whole must fall to the
ground. We cannot adopt one portion and reject
another neither can we invalidate one clause, and
predicate RIGHT upon another. If the law is un-
constitutional-if dividing Hamilton county is not
justified by strict Interpretation of the constitu-
tion-then the claim to hold a seat in the Legsla-
ture, by its authority is abortive. If unconstitu-
tional it is no law, and there could be no election
held under it. Therefore according to their own
prctext, these gentlemen have not shadow of
right to u seat in the Legislature To admit them
would not only be sanctonng wrong but would be
profaning the very constitution and laws which all
citizens are required to support.
Again; Have these gentlemen regarded the Ap-
portionment law as unconstitutional! Let facts
answer. They nominated a ticket under it-they
participatedin in an election under 1.-THE members
elect obtained certificates under -and lastly thev
are now in Columbus claiming seats in the Legisla-
ture under it;-some rightly, others without shad-
ow of right While mems acts thus attest their
acknowledgment of the consttutonality of law,
it is mockery for them to raise so shallow pre-
text to cover the enOrmity of their conduct.
Thus regarding the disturbances at Columbus, and
believing that the Wings have been disposed, from
the first to arrange the difficulties with strict re-
gard to right, we fully approve their conduct, and
should lament ing them pursue any other course,
Their opponents, in rejecting several ust& honora
BILE propositions to compromise, have only render
ed their own conduct the more unjusti fable.

Ulsen thousand half boxes during the year. They

The Ohio Legislature.

Many people have entertained we'll ll-gounded fears
that the opening scenes of Legislature would be
OF character that speak but little for the morality
of the people Of this great State. Such fears have
been fully realized nay, more than realized. For
week, the tumult violence, disorder, and rioous pro-
ceedings, occurring daily in our halls of legislation
beggars description Instead of the decorum and
dignity of Legislative assembly, we are panied to
say that the most violent excesses have been, and
continue to be, daily enacted. The judicous propo-
sitions of wedisposed men have been rejected with
scorn, without moments consideration, or a show
terminate, no one can tell. Every days proceed
ings present repetition or aggravation of the tu-
uiult. Instead of learning wisdom from expert
ence, it appears that "evil communications" are to
zap the foundations Of our State Government
After Sunday nights revel, portion of the
Representatives elect to the General Assembly,
(and portion that were NOT elect0 accompanied
by a Judge of the Supreme Court, of Cleveland no.
toriety, repaired to the State House; where Myn-
heer Letter, of Stark, was hurredly called to the
chair, and the oath oil office as hurr1edy admins

performed the 6rst act of the farce, they resigned
themselves to the arms Of Morpheus until the ar
rival Of the usual hour for the opening of the annu
al sessions Of the Legislature, and the residue oI
the members elect.
Al the usual hour, the Wings members appeared
in the Hall Of the House. & prepared to organize the
Legislature IN due form. According to custom, the
clerk of the last session proceeded to call the list
Of members, and to receive their certificates The
oath Of office was duly administered and Mr.. Hol-
comb, of Gallia, was requested to take the chair
until further organization could be effected. Al
this stage, the proceedings were arrested by Myn.
