Ohio Legislature.

We are indebted to the Huron Reflector
for the following summary of proceedings in
the Ohio Legislature:
The Senate has been chiefly occupied during
the past week, on the Probate Court Bill
According to the provisions of this bill, ex-
elusive jurisdiction is conferred upon Probate
Judges in probate and testamentary matters,
the appointment of administrators, guardians,
&c, granting marriage licences,-the sale Of
lands of deceased persons, minors idiots, DC,
the partition OF estates, assignment of dover,
in short the same powers heretofore exsrcis-
ed by the Courts of Common Pleas in rsla-
ton to such matters. subjec: to an appeal to
the District Courts in case of contested wills
and the final orders, judgments and DEGREES
of the Probate Court may also be carried to
the higher Court, BY appeal, and there revers-
ed or affirmed, as the case may be. This bull
also provides thai each Probate Judge shall
be his own clerk, and shall have suitable of
fee provided for him at the County seat
Numbers of the Clerks and Probate Judg-
es are at Columbus endeavoring to influence
the Legislature for or against the bill, which
subtracts very largely from the emoluments
of the former and bestows them on the latter.
In the House the Finance Committee re-
ported new tax bill, which the State Journ-
al says, s,occupied one hour and twenty min
utes in its reading, Singalarly enough it fails
to tax State and United States stocks.
A general tax and assessment bill was also
introduced in the Senate. An amendment to
the Probate Court Bill was adopted in the
Senate, on the 22d inst, prohibiting the judg-
es from practicing law.
A bill for the appointment of three Com
nissioners to revise the laws on the model of
the revised code in New York, has been re-
ported by the Judiciary Committee in the
House. The Commissioners to commence the
work in ten days after the passage of the law
and do it up in sixty days, at Sc 90 per day.
The Governor to appoint the Commissioners,
with the concurrence of the Senate.

The above lapguageof Henry Clay to Lou
is Kossuth is thus commented upon by the
New York Mirror:
These are solemn words, from the lips of
one, who, standing upon the very threshold of
Eternity, has no motive to utter a sentiment
that does not spring from an honest conviction
of its pure and absolute truth. The last words
of such patriot as Henry Clay may safely be
taken as the oraclss of wisdom, more sacred
in their import. and more binding upon the
people, than any words Of fate ever uttered
in the ancient groves Of dodona.
