local business transacted to-day, resolution was
passed authorizing the Clerk to contract for all the
printing directed to be done by the House. provi.
ded that no higher price be paid than was paid for
the printing of the last General Assembly. This

The clerk Of the House Is free soier, and as
matter of course the printing will be given to
the freesoil paper of this city. But as Col. Me.
dairy does the press work Of that establishment, it
is understood that the printing win be necessarily

Columbus, Feb 23, l849.
DEAR SrR:-A bill passed the House, to-day.
fixing the prices of printers for publishing the de.
lnquent and forfeited land lists. The average
price paid. last year, in the several counties in
this State is fraction over 33 cents per tract for
the delinquent lands. The charges ranged from
16 cents to one dollar and t,Do cents. There is
no reason under the sun. why one printer should
receive six tim es as much Tor the same kind of
work as another. The present bill taxes the price
al twenty-five cents per tract, which is the sum
allowed by the Auditor OF State.
Severed bills came from the Senate, to-day, in.
cooperating railroad and turnpike companies, with
an amendment giving future legislatures the pow
or to tax them. Ivoted against the measure be-
cause believe, any legislature las the power to
tax any corporation now in existence. BY attach
ing the amendment it seems to me we abandon our
right to tax those already in exi,tence-this CAN
not for a moment concede. There was some diff.
ference Of opinion among the democrats on this
subject although they all desire to affect the
thing. The two houses met in joint convention
to-day, aud proceeded TO the election OF Prssi.
dent Judge for Hamilton county, with the follow.
