ANONs SOAHs
SENArE.-Mr. Cushing, on leave,
introduced a bill to prevent the
further immigration and settlement
Of blacks and mulattoes in the State
Of Ohio, which was read the first
time.
The House passed resolution
making inquiries into the expense Of
publishing the laws, &c.
Nov. 30ih.--SENATE.-A motion
to appoint a Standing Committee on
temperance was lost by the casting
vote Of the Lieut.. Governor, when
the Senate adjourned till Thursday
morning, in order to give the uss of
their room to the Presidential elec~
tors tomorrow.
The House spent much time on
the militia bill.
Dec. I.-Resolutions were passed
in the House, requesting the Auditor
TO report the amount Of property Of
banks and brokers the new tax law
has brought on TO the tax list. ,s,
The Senate spent most Of the 2nd
on the School bill. The State Jour-
nal remarks concerning the debate
on this bill:
The debate upon the proprietv Of
procuring a copy Of Webster's Die
iionary for each district, and for
assessing tax Of one-tenth of mill
on each dollar for the purpose Of
procuring a suitable school library,
and carrying out the details Of the
system, has teen full and interesting.
The same bill was before the Sen.
ate on the Sd.
The House again went into COM
mittee Of the whole on the bill for
establishing Roads and Highways,
and after making several amend
ments, rose and obtained leave TO sit
again.
The State Journal remarks about
the present condition Of the Militia
bill:
The Militia bill is getting down TO
about the point we indicated. A
registry OF the names by some coun-
tv officer, drills dispensed with, and
independent companies encouraged.
The practical difficulty is, to raise
funds to meet the inevitable expenses
Of the system. People won't stand
a tax for that purpose, and without
some money, any system will fall
dead body from their hands. We do
not know the remedy, but one must
be found or it will be a great failure.
HoGDoM is looming up. and Japani
cadom pales before it. Cincinnati,
the ham burgh and meat.ropolis of
the Union, bristles with pride under
the rhapsody Of Royalty. The
roast beei Of old England has now
a competitor. The hams Of Yankee
dom vie with the Courtly Sirloin for
Imperial lavor and the smiles OF
noble damsels, as they press the
dainty morsels with their lips. Her
Majesty Queen Victoria, it will be
perceived, has returned 10 Mr.. Stagg,
OF this city, who sent her a present
of hams. few tender lines, and the |
master OF the household, like Gurth |
the son OF Cedric the Saxon, speaks
with satisfaction o. them hams. We
hope our thrifty pork merchant will
be able to Stagg er under the weight |
Of his honors. We wonld respect
fully give notice that WE are as good |
a Judge of hams as the Queen or
any Of her household, and can write
as good letiers-haml-Cin. Times. !
