ALL ON HAND AS UsUAL.--Tbe Ohio
State Journal OF Saturday says "the Ex-
ecutive officers, Governor, Lieut.. Coy
ornor, Auditor. Secretary Of State, Treas
urer Of State. and all their Clerks; all the
State IIousc Commissioners, and their de-
pendents; the Board Of Public Works.
Eagizeers, Superintendents, Lock-tenders,
Collectors, &c.I all the. officers of the
Benevolent Institutions and their hangers
on, besides strong delegation from the
Ohio Penitentiary, the familiar faces Of the
old broken down party hacks, are here as
usual,to attend upon the eighth of january
Convention.
"a caucus meeting was held this morn
ing at the Office of the Board of Public
Works, at which resolutions were passed
appointing a secret committee to investi-
gate the character of the Delegates,
and to report the names Of those who
are known TO be members Of the Know
Nothings.
Gas far as we can Judge the Conven-
ton viii be composed of Know Nothings
and Sag NIGHTS, and the contest will be a
warm one between the rival secret orders.
We shall look for good time generally,
and are especially gratiGed that Barnum
has chosen this particular time to visit
our city"
Since the above was in type, we learn
from the same source, that Gov. MEDILL
and all the present estate incumbents" are
re-nominated. OF course these gentlemen
will not incumbe. the State another term.
They see the hand writing on the wall.
The American boys already begin to rub
their hands with glee preparatory to enter
ing upon the duties of the campaign.

EF-The party in power at Washington
is deyising ways in which to put the sur
plus in the National treasury out of the way
of its opponents. Hear "Ion, the Wash
ington correspondent Of the Baltimore
San:
.'In as much as the character of the
next House is already supposed to be de-
termined, and as it is not expected to be
remarkably favorable to the views either
of the administration or of the present
majority of Congress, the expediency OF
depriying the next House of the sinews of
poltics-athat is to say, the surplus in the
treasury-is generally acknowledged.
Measures are in contemplation for
reducing the amount Of money in the
Treasury, especially if the revenue be not
reduced Congress may find many and
proper objects of public expenditure---in
paying debts, settling long contested and
troublesome claims, making public i'm
provcments, augmenting the Navy, and
carrying out proper system of coast de-
fence, by stationary or other means"
