The present Legislature of Ohio stands pre-
eminent in baseness, srrvi!ity and corruption. A
poweriess miror.fy of honorable members, in vain
attempt TO resist the prevalent pr.f;gaey.
The base men of the Senate expelled Mr.. Day
from The Reporters de-k, and the services Of the
Hruse initiate their example, by refusing TO admit
him as reporter. The following is The record:
Mr.. Burton moved that VIM. II. Day be ad-
mitted uron the floor of the House a repor'
| Mr.. B said that Mr. Day the editor of the
.4hened .9mericun paper devoted to the advance
fnent of the colored race and the amelioration Of
their condition. The class to which he belonged
were taxed for the support of the Government and
it was desirable that his readers should be kept
advised of The action of the Legislature. 1t was
privilege that had been extended TO reporters for
other papers. and as Mr. Day was constituent
of his he asked that the same courtesy be extend
ed to him.
The motion was lost-yeas so, nays 40, as fol-
