OHIO LEGISLATURE.
MONDAY, Jan. 26
SENATE.

Tho time of the Senate this morning has
been spent upon the bill to provide for the
appointment of Commissioners 10 revise
the practice Of the Courts. The question.
a. 10 what amount of salary should be
paid TO the commissioners, which was
much discussed on Saturday afternoon,
cams up this forenoon, and was finally ix'
f. cd at 1900 per annum. The bill finally
passed through the committee without 9TH
er material amendment.
Mr.. Riddle reported back the bill, from
the Judiciary Committee, 10 amend the
act Of 1881. directing the mode Of trial in
criminal cases, with the recommendation
that the same be indefinitely postponed;
which was agreed to.
% The labor of the Judiciary Committees
of the two Houses is immense. Every
question involving any legal or consItu
tional construction must be acted upon by
them. Such questions are constantly aris-
ing, owing to the changes effected by the
new Con sttution. These committees have
busiaess enough before them to occupy
full half of their time, even if they were
not compelled to be in their places during
the session of the two Houses.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
The House was engaged this morning
in committee Of the whole on the bill pro-
viding for the election, &C., of Clerks Of
Common Pleas. Several amendments
were made to it, but they had not time to
complete it.
The intention is to pass it at as early a
day as possible.
The printing bill was formally taken up,
but postponed.
Another Probate bill was introduced by
Mr.. Weller, and read the first time. 1t is
understood to be more favorable TO the
clerks of common pleas than that of Mr..
Rice in the Senate.
Probably compromise between the two
will finally pass both Houses.
1t provides, among other things, that the
Clerk of Common Pleas shall also be Clerk
Of the Probate Court 1t makes that Court
strictly Probate Court. Provides that
the Judge shall be paid by the usual fees,
and in addition a salary graduated ac-
cording to the population of the county,
from 5000 per annum up to $1,000. We
hope that the bill which finally passes will
be matured with great care and judgment,
- it is one of the most important subjects
which will occupy the attention ol the
Legislature this winter.
The people expect that the office will be
made such an one as they want. Great
care should be taken that it be not made
such an office as none but lawyer can
fll We believe that it should be such
an office as that any plain, practical.
sensible man. such as we have formerly
had for Associate Judges, can discharge
the duiieswell and faithfully. Letno jnfu-
ences, improper in their nature, be brought
to bear on this all-imporlant subject.

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 2G

The debate on the motion TO strike out
of the bill to organize the Courts, the
clause granting appeals, is not yetfnished.
The subject is one of great importance,
and is undergoing very thorough discus.
sion.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.
Much business was done of a general
nature, but of no particular interest. The
report of the Clerk on printing was read
laid upon the table.
The Morgan county contested seat was
made the special order for Monday next.
Mr.. Casad offered the following resolu-
ton. which was adopted:
Resolved, That the Clerk of the House
be requested to communicate 10 Samuel
Medary that any work, or any preparation
for any work. for the printing of the jour-
nails of the House, is not and cannot be
authorized by the terms Of the resolution
adopted the 12th Of January 1852. and
that if any express or implied contract ex-
lists for the printing of the journal that the
same is wholly Unauthorized and void.

NEW MEXICAN AFFAIRS.

A letter in the st. Louis Republican.
dated Santa Fe, November 30th, gives
some interesting intelligence from that re.
gion. The Government station at For;
Union had been found impracticabc, and
had been abandoned. A Government
farm had been located on Oraie Creek.
All the sheep that had been attempted to
be driven across the plains TO stock the
farm, had died on the way.
The Indians continue 10 be more or
less troublesome-running off stock and
sometimes killing tho herders An Apache,
mounted on a feet horse, about four hun
dred yards from the plaza of ono Of the
villages. drove off five head of horses at
MONDAY. Near Donanna, three Mexi-
cans have been killed by the Apaches,
since tho lst One of the murdered mon
had his hands tied behind him. and was
then shot full of arrows With such mur.
ders and robbsriss as these tho Apachss
mix up business and pleasure. These
Indians are encouraged by the Mexicans,
who are frequently seen playing at cards,
with them. An Apache, while playing cards
with Mexican "greases" stole The stakes,

He was followed and overtaken by the
Mexican, and stabbed 10 death The In
dians demanded the punishment OF The

effectual, although the District Attorney
has refused to interfere. l-

TUESDAY, Jan. 81

IUESDAN, jan. u.
The labor performed by the Senate since
Yesterday, though great is not calculated
to make much show out of doors. Several
very important bills have been considered
in committee Of the whole. and matured.
No time has been wasted in iruitless dis
cussion. All the members of both Houses
seem inclined to do the work before them
ss fast as it can be done without prejudice
10 the public interest The bill to organize
the Courts oi the State, and to define their
powers and duties, has occupied the time
Of the Senate since yesterday. 1t is now
nearly perfected, and will probably pass
to-day.
Tho bill 10 provide for the appointment
Of three commissioners TO revise thu Prac-
tice Of the courts. passed the Senate Nhis
morning, and in substance is as follows:
The lst section gives the appointment
Of the Commissioners TO the Governor, by
and with the advice and consent Of the
Senate.
The Cd section provides that said Com,
missioners shall meet in the city OF Colum-
bus and organize on the second Monday
ofFebruary, 1852. and continue IN session
until they have performed the duties re-
qured Of them by this act
The Sd section limits the term at which
the office OF the Commissioners shall OK.
pire or the first Monday of November,
1859. unless sooner discharged by Joint
resolution Of the General Assembly, and
makes it their duty 10 report their pro-
ceedings 10 the Legislature from time to
time.
The 4th section provides that the Com
missioners shall be paid at the rate Of two
thousand dollars per annum during the
time they are employed in the discharge
of their duties.
The 9Th section, authorizing the Gov
ernor 10 fill vacancies that may occur du-
ring the recess Of the Legislature.
The 9th section. authorizing said Com
missioners to appoint clerk, at a compen.
cation not to exceed three dollars per day
Of actual service.
The 7th section, making it the duty Of
the Commissioners to report TO either
House Of the Legislature, when requested
by resolution.
The 9th section gives the commissioners
free access to the State Library and pub
lie records of the State; also requires the

formation relating TO the business of said
courts, for which they are TO be paid ou,

ihs commissioners.
The 10Th section makes it the duty o!
the commissioners TO take the constitution

0rA proposition is before the Legisla.
lature for repeating the law requiring all
laws of general nature 10 be published in
the county papers. If there ever was a
time when such law was needed, it seems
to us, it is the present, when so great
changes are about being made. Long be-
fore the acts of general nature can be dis
tributed among the several township off,
GERS, they can be seen and read in the
newspapers, if this law is suffered 10 re.
main. There were some defects, however,
in the old law. There was never any ne
cessity for publishing the times of holding
the courts, except of that circuit in which
the papers publishing the law were print
ed.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
The bill providing for the election, &C.,
OF Clerks Of Common Pleas having been
read the third time. Mr. Cassd moved to
re.commit it to the Judiciary, with instruc-
tons 10 report back after having incorpo-
rated in it all the sections and parts OF
sections Of the law now in force on the
subject moi in conflict with the Constitu-
ton.
After some debate the instructions were
withdrawn. The question gave rise to
quite spirited discussion. K
The bill is intonted, by those who intro
duced and advocated it. but as tempo
rarv measure At subsequent period
another will be matured. in accordance
with the Constitution, which will provide
in detail for the various duties of the
Clerks.
The point raised in the discussion seems
to be about this: Are the laws now upon
our statute books in force and effect, in
reference to the courts Of the same name?
Or are they null and void. functus olficlo-
having performed all that was required of
them are they now in operative by express
or implied limitation, or are they binding
upon the same courts or rather the courts
of the same name under the new system
of the Judiciary? Messrs. Gest and
O'Nell contend they do not bind our pres
ent courts but are imperative. On the
contrary Messrs. IIutchins, Casad and
Shellabarger take the other side of the
question. 1t is a nice legal question, and
very important one. The constitution
makes the present courts of common pleas
the successors of those under the old order.
1t is claimed on the one hand that as to
the business now pending, those laws are
operative and no farther. On the other
hand this position is conroverted. The
question had not been determined when
tho House took recess.
In the afternoon the bill was referred to
the Judiciary committee.
The new tax bill was then taken up in
committee of the whole.

Kossulh Festival at Pittsburgh
KoSsuth Speech -Grcat Demon
PITTSBURGH, Jan. 26-P. NJ.

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 26-P. NJ.
The Festival in honor Of Kossuth came
off this afternoon in the Masonic Hall,
which was filed to overhowing. Hon. A.
w. Loomis, ex-mcmber ol Congress. was
President, and several of our most distn.
guished politicians Of all parties. Mayor
Guthrie, cergymen, &c, Vice Presidents.
When Ko,suh came on the stage the
entire audience arose in respectful silence
until his Introduction 10 the meetimg.-
Overwhelming applause followed, and the
band struck up the Marseiles hymn.
An eloquent address was then delivered
by Mr.. Loomis, decided in its tone hear
ty in its endorsement Of Kossuh's cause
and policy. and was frequently applauded
Kossuth responded in magnificent
speech Of some length, in which he ex-
pressed his qualification at the prospect of
realizing his hopes as manifested by the
people Of the West. He said the new
doctrine, that nations shall 10 longer man
age their own domestic concerns. because
despots interfered to prevent It. was more
dangerous TO tho world than anything that
has yet occurred. The jaws of absolut.
ism were not able to swallow up all the
freedom on earth at once, but must take
leaf by leaf-nation by nation. Permit
Russian interference, and freedom would
gradually be absorbed.
He then cast a rapid glance over the
diplomatic administration OF the Car, 10
show that the crushing Of liberty in Ger.
many. Prussia, France, Italy, and Sardi-
mia was in every case his work, and The
general design was tie overthrow OF con
stitutonal liberty every where Let but
Russian interference be prevented. and
Hungary. France, I,aly-all Europe
shake off her shackles, and rise to the stat.
urs Of freedom! Can the United States
look on indifferently and see the sun Of
freedom darkened, ray by ray? Can. it
be silent because it was not her policy
seventy years ago, and not care about
European affairs? Is there no power
on earth to stop this execrable extinction
Of liberty, although there is a Republic on
earth glorous-p powerful to do so? Free
America, beware, ere too late, that your
liberties also be not overwhelmed by abso-
lutism. 2.H sti'''
Kossuth then proceeded to comment on
the diplomatic power of Russia, which is
greater than her physical. Her policy is
to make the world more powerful, physi.
cally than she is. Her diplomacyis is sub
terranean-slippery, like snake-bur-
rowing like mole. But the great idol,
with front OF brass and feet Of clay, can
be easily overturned If this republic stands
resolutsly by her principles If we do
not, there are now living those who will
see us contendIng single handed, for life
and death, against encroaching despotism!
