Johnson) were in their seats this morn

health than of late. | was glad to see
this, for much as | differ with that geu-
tIeman in sentiment, have never had
any reason to feel the slightest enmity,
personally, On the other hand, rather
admire Mr.. Whitmans boldness, and
give him credit for perfect honesty in
his Intentions. True he is occasionally
carried away by passion, aud acts in a
manner Of which he afterwards repents,
in his cooler moments. Nothing is fur

Mr.. Whitman took no part in the de-

graceful conduct.
At late hour, the Senate adjourned
until morning.
The House had bnsy day of it. Mr..
Breslin handed 10 the Speaker commu-
nication fiom Samuel Medary to do the
printing at half cent per 1000 ems,
lower than the bid sent in by Messrs
Scott and Bascoh two weeks ago and
read to the House. He moved that the
Clerk be directed to enter into contract
with Medary for the printing. This
would have been very unjust, and the
House so regarded it. They, by vote
Of 81 to 35, referred the subject to the
Committee on Printing...to receive fur
ther bids, and report on Monday morn
ing. The Locos used every means, aut
consumed three hours in the effort by
repeated calls of the ayes and nays ant
motions to adjourn, to defeat the refer
ence, but in vain. They were made I,
face the music.
A joint resolution was offered by Mr.
Whiteley. and on his own motion laid up
on the table, for sine die adjournment
on Monday next. If he and his party
cannot behave better, it is to be hopec
that this resolution will be adopted.
A better plan would be perhaps to adop
Mr.. Randal's suggestion to-day, that th'
members withthe exception oI those from
Hamilton county resign. and let the Gov
ernor call special election, and thus th'
people could settle the question. Thi
the Locos would not agree to, for th'
reason tha, they dread verdict of thci
constituents on their disorganizing ant
factious conduct.
, The apportionnent question was ais,
up in the House. 1t was discussed AM
then made the special order for Thnr'

their business, which is chiefly to procure
some amendment to the charter, and the
laws passed last winter, authorizing
county subscriptions to the road. There
will be a good deal of oppositlun, but it
cannot be successful. Twenty.six miles
of the track of the Columbus and Xenia
railroad, are now laid and ready for trav-
el. The whole distance is SO miles,
