the amendment proposed by the committee.
Mr.. Wilder briefly explained the amendment,
which is, to strike out the 9th section of the bill,
proposing to loan the State money, without interest,"
and insert clause to tax each share of stock IS
cents: At a proper time he might give to the Sem

preferred full Senate, for the consideration of this
impor tant measure.
Mr. Thomas moved to postpone the bill and
amendment to the 9Th of January.
Mr.. W. R. Myers was opposed to a further post
ponement of this BILL 1t had already been postponed
and it time that it should be acted on-that the
people should know what is to become of this great
bank. He argued that the bank had done great
good to the State-that our public Treasurer had
found it So The credit of the State has been sus-
tanned through this bank. II the bill be defeated he
could not TELL but that in six months State Trea
surer would be unable to meet the demands on the
Treasury. Referred to prcjudices against the bank
discussed the merits of many objections, &c.
Mr. Thomas, of jackson, commenced reply to
the speech of Mr.. Myers, when
The Speaker announced that the gentleman fro m
Meckenburg had travelled out of the way in discus
sing the merits of the bill, and out of order,
but he had not been called to order by the Senate
the Speaker had suffered him to proceed.
Mr. Thomas resumed. He had not made any
attack upon the bill, and it would be time enough
to speak of its virtues
Mr. Wder-I call the gentleman to order. Let
him withdraw his motion to postpone, and we will
proceed to consider the bill on its second reading.
Mr.. Thomas.-I withdraw it.
Mr.. Ramsay rtnew it.

Last Saturday, the 9th inst, vas q

meeting was decidedly the largest Town

either party in the County, aud is ad-

every respect, by every one present.
We left Ashland, in company with
our excellent Brass Band, about 10
o'clock, and arrived at Polk about l,
where a large procession was waiting our
arrival. The procession fell in after the
Bard in good order, and at the cross
roads two miles west of Perrysburg, was
joined by the delegations from Orange
and Clearcreek, making a procession full
one-half mile in length. Ga arriving at
Perrysburg, the procession was further
augmented by delegations from Homer

"The Democrats of Geneva, Ashta-s
