Why does Congress not ORGANIZED

The charge is pretty generally going The
rounds Of the Democrats Press, that the fault
is with tile Republicans. How stands the
case I? In the SD Congress no one party had
the power to elect a Speaker by a majority
vote. and the House was without an organiza,
tion for about three weeks. proposition to
elect speaker by plurality vote, was sub.
mitted by the Democrats and carried; by which
Mr.. Cobb Of Georgia was elected Speaker.
In the present Congress a ike proposition
was submitted, long before the expiration Of
three weeks from their converting. which has
been invariably voted down by the Democrats
and the National Know .Nothings. At whose
door then, does the fault lie? If the rule
was Democratic then why not as much so now?
But read the following fair statement from the
Canton Repository.
E9- McGregor, in last weeks Democrat !;
under The caption Of an article, "The Cost Of
Fusion" condemns the Republicans for not
organizing the House-holding them response.
bic fer the cost of Congress in the long con.
test for Speaker. The charge is unfounded,
as it is mean and contemplate. 1t is notori-
GUS, that the so called Democrats have in eve
ry instance, prevented an organization. When
the Republicans offered resolution to elect a
Speaker by plurality vote, these so called
Democrats, and few Northern dough faces,
voted against it-whie the Republican Banks
men voted for that motion. We would like
to know whois responsible for the SI5O,O0
already squandred We answer the question
BY saying, that rhe Richardson men alone are
responsible, and tie cOuntry should know it,
IL the plurality vote had been adopted, the
election of Speaker would have taken piece 8
weeks ago. But the Richardson men defeated
il.
Richardson is admitted to be not only dissi-
paled, but a most notorious swearer and bias
phemer. Is such man ft to gil that post? No
never.

Chase's Inaugural.

We invite the attention OF our readers 10 The
Inaugural Address of Governor Chase deliver
ed on the l4th lost, before the Ohio Senate and
House Of Representatives, published on the
outside Of our paper. A more diguiGtd. and
frank avOwal in plain and unvarnished Ian
guags, of the measures that are recommended
to the consideration Of the Legislature, has not
q parallel. in any document of the kind, ema,
natpg from any OF bis " illustrious prede
cessOrS" in the last twenty years.
He recommends with clearness every propo :
sIioA submitted. And most especially the sin.
gle district system. He also recommends the
annual meeting Of the Legislature, with LIMIT
ED period, He further advises that an adds
tional proposition be submitted to the people,
for more banking capital in the State. And
thinks il advisable to reduce the maximum rate
OF interest below ten per cent. as at present al
lowed. And urgently presses upon their con
aideration reform, ''both IN measure and in
mode" OF Lhe burdens of taxation.
10 short it is an able and mastery State
document. 1t clinches every argument, af-
ter being driven home to the understanding Of
every man. We concur in all his recommen
dations. with the exception of the question of
interest In which we can not entirely agree
so long as there are so many inducements ex-
tant, 10 draw capital out of our State, greater
renumeratvely, than even ten per cent, per an.
mum affords.

at Canal Dover, Tuscarawas county, Ohio, was
at the late term Of the Probate Court in that
county, fined in the sum Of S25 and cost Of
prosecution. for assault and battery on the per
son of Christian Kemmer. The circumatan.
ces under which the offence Was committed ap,
pears to be as follows
On Sunday, the 9th day Of December last
after the services OF the Chulch were over, Of
which the Rev. was officiating, Kemmer went
to the house of the Rev Winans, in Canal Do
yer, and demanded of him note which he
had paid off calling for Sl5,OO-the Rev. said
he would not give itup until the said Kemmer
paid the amount of interest which was due on
said note, Kemmer said that he was not enti.
tied to interest, and therefore would not pay
it. Whereupon the Rev. laid hands upon
Kemmer IN rude and violent manner and
thrust him from the house, and after eiectne
him therelrom, struck him two or three times
with bis hand.
