are to receive not less than $4,000 per annum, to

resolution by Mr.. LAwREScE was agreed tO,
instructing the Committees on Finance and Be-
nevolent Institutions to consider the expediency
of providing by iuw that reports Of State officers
be printed in advance OF the meeting of the Gen.,
eral Assembly, SO as to have them laid on the ta
Bile of members in such quantities as the law may
direct. Had such laws been in force at tho
opening of the present Legislature, it would have
much expedited business. The printing law re-
quires that in printing documents, composition
cannot be charged bat once, and hence they cam
not be printed for one House until the other H,
makes its order also. The consequence Is, that
the reports of the State officers are not yet prin-
ted-all the typen the Office of the contractor
is used in them, and he is crippled because the
House neglects to make its order for printing, or
to agree or disagree to the Senate resolution.
On motion OF Mr.. TAYLOR, RESOLUTION was

During the afternoon session, an interesting de-,
bate sprang up in Committee Of the Whole, on
the bill of Mr.. FoLLETT, to prohibit the circuit
tion of foreign bank bills of a less denominations
than five dollars, in which Messrs. FooT and Up
SON in opposition, and Messrs FoLLErr and Ar.
KIEsoN in favor, participated. The question took
quite wide range, in which the present wretched
currency was debated at some length. The OBJ.
ject of the bill is to cut off the nsolyent trash,
brought by the bankers and brokers of Ohio from
other States, and forwhich the people will soon
be made to foot the bill. These institutions re-
quire but an expanded currency to burst up, and
thus fulfill the destiny of all banks. '1GfffI
