Expenditure OF the Money raised
for State Benevolent institutions.


The Columbus Correspondent of the Newark
"Norih american" )" in recent letter to that pa
per- wrote, among other things, as follows:
"Mr. SINNETT introduced bill few DAYS
since which is creating some little squirming in
certain quarters. 1t requires the Trustees o
the Benevolent Institutions to report in future
he items Of expense to enable the people to de-
termine which costs the most, the pupils or the
officers
We were heartily glad to note this move on
the partof Mr.. Sinnett, and are only sorry that
we have not seen further action on the matter
1t looked as though the Republicans, after "a
years experience, saw the necessity of estab-
fishing check of some kind in the place of the
one they so unwisely tore away in the first few
months of their power. From the month oi
May, 1854, until the Democratic State Admin
istration ceased to exist, no money was drawn
from the Treasury for the maintenance Of the
Benevolent Institutions, until a bill Of items
was first approved by one Of the Trustees and
filed in the Office of the Auditor of State. In this
way an official voucher fully explaining the pur-
pose for which every draft on the Treasury was
issued, was always to be found in the proper
State department. But this system Of account
ability, (like the provisions of Mr.. Sinnett's
bill,) created squirming in certain quarters"
and was not suited to the digni6ed notions and
convenience Of the pap suckers who live on the
money appropriated for the Benevolent Institu-
tions BY dint perseverance, they succeeded in
inducing the present hoasted reform. Legislature
to abrogate the system ofprompt accountability
established under democratic rule This, how
ever, was of no great Importance provided they
established in its stead another system that was
better or equally good. But this they utterly
failed to do. Under the laws, as they were
changed by the Republican Legislature the
Trustees Of the several institutions are at liber,
ty to draw IN J'e3k from the Treasury, the en-
tire sums of money (amouttihg to over $l0O,
0OO) appropriated for the support Of the res
pective ASylums, without ling any other vouch.
er therefor than theer o,oa order requiring its
payment!
A system so totally unguarded as this, has no
parallel in the mode of disbursing the funds col
lected for the support of any County Inirmary
in the State. The money set apart for the use
of these local institutions, is retained in the
Treasury of the respective counties until it is
needed, and then checked out on the order Of
the County Auditor to the particular persons
who may have claims against said fund, and to
them alone. This plain and palpably correct
mode of disbursing the public money, is in daily
practical use in the affairs of every we'll regua
ted county in Ohio. Yet, under Republican
rule, asystem 50 clearly right and proper, has
been totally ignored in the management of the
large sums Of money regularly assessed and col
lected from the people of Ohio for the mainte
nance Of the State institutions. Ad-

Republican State Officer using
Treasury Money as a Broker!

In the report of the Investigating Committee
appointed by the State Legislature to look into
the'past and present management of the State
Finances, there are developed many facts that
must create Surprise if not pain and mortifca-
ton. Not the least Of these, is the fact that
the late Attorney General of Ohio, (Nlr KIM
BALI, } within three months after entering upon
the duties of his Office, yielded to the tempta-
tions by which he was beset, and borrowed from
the. Treasurer OF State thirty thousand dollars Of
the public naoaey, with which he started an Office
in Cleveland to carry on the business of q pri-
vate BANKER and BROKER! Mr.. Kimball
is now deceased, and the money in question still
remains Gas the report shows in the hands Of
his surviving partner.
A tranaaction of this kind on the part Of Judge
Bowen, Treasurer Gibson, or any other Of the
well-recognized sharks who have been raised to
power by the Republican party, would have oc-
casioned no sensation of wonder. But it is 9TH
erwise with Mr.. Kimball, for among all the nine
men who stood on the Republican State ticket
of 1855, it was thought that the views and pur-
poses of none wereso purely unselfish and hon
orablc as his. Yet the developments made by
this Investigating committee of Mr.. Kimbalps
own party friends, shows but too conclusively
that even he, the very flower of the ticket on
which he ran, had no rightful claim to the con-
fidence which his democratic opponents were
disposed to place in his disinterestedness.
1t is truly sad day when men think less Of
their honor conferred by public trust and of
the service which they may render the common
wealth, than of the facilities which their official
positions may give them to acquire money!

4 CHARACTER FOR WAsHINGToN.-Thc Rev.
Theodore parker, one ofthc three thousand rev.
erend donunciators of Senator Douglas says,
"Washington had not great reason, no philo-
sophical power no imagination, no fohdness for
beauty in art or literature. At times he pour
ed out the ghaStliest Of oaths, was not an aliec-
ti6nate man and few flowers Of benevolence
geanedacross his path" and the erason for all
this was ''the fact that he lived and died a
slaveholder!"
This is monstrous. But then it is tho same
Parker who gives to Charles Sumner all the
qualities which were lacking in Washington and
deems him hero and saint, because we sup
pose he is not aslave holder This reverend
gentleman is one Of the bright and shining lights
one of the leaders and teachers of Abolition
Black "Republicanism." What does he most
deserve2-M Y. Daily Nelcs

THE LITTLE BOY'S BURIAL
RY W. c. BRYANT.

Two dark eyed m aids, at shut of day,
! Sat where a river rolled away.
With calm, sad brow, and raven hair;
And one was pale, but both were fair
Bring flowers they sang, bring flowers unblowed
Bring forest blooms, Of name unknown.
Bring building sprays from woods and wilds,
To strew the bier of Lov,, the child.
Close softly, fondly, while ye weep,
iHisey that death may seem like sleep;
And foldhis hands in sign of rest,
Iiswaxen hand across his breast.
And make his grave where violets hide,
Where star. flowers strew the rivulet's side,
And blue birds in the misty Spring
sOl eloudless skies and summer, sing
sPfaes near him, as ye lay him low,
His idle shafts, his loosened bow,
,, The silken flet, that around
His waggish eyes in sport he bound.
But we shall mourn him long, and miss
HIS ready smile, his ready Kiss,
The prattle Of his little feet,
Sweet frowns and stammered phrases sweet.
And graver looks, serene and high,
A light Of heaven in that young eye,
All these shall haunt US till the heart
Shall ache and ache, and tears will start.
The bow, the band shall fall to dust,
The shining arrow waste with rust,
And all of love that earth can claim
Be but memory and name.
Not thus his nobler part shall dwell
A prisoner in his narrow cell,
But he whom now we hide from men,
In the dark ground, shall live again.
Shall break the cods, form of light,
With nobler mien and purer sight,
And in the eternal glory stand
Highest and nearest Gods right hand.

JOSEY's BABY.

sistar Josey'sgot baby,
tShe is but child herself,)
And tho baby is bright-eyed
Laughing, crying little elf.
Well mind the April morning
was scarcely five years old
Addie came with smile and gladness,
And wondrous tale she told.
How tiny pretty creature,
To our r.other's arm was given,
How white winged angel broughtit
From its happy home in heaven.
Mother called her baby Josey,
And she was pet and pride;
No one though Of scolding Josey,
When she fretted, frowned or cried.
Only think how years crowd round US,
Bringing trouble, bringing change
Now that baby's got baby;
Bless me! aintit very stlangei
Such precious, winning darling,
Eyes of soitest, darkest gray,
Cheeks where blessed cunning dimples
Play bo.peep the livelOng day.
You should hear him laughing gaily,
Cooling like little dove,
If you were the crossest fellow,
Josey's baby you would love.

valuable DisCOVeFses---COa Vein
Reached, Salt Springs, &C.,

Recent developments in driving coal shaft
upper Market street, in the rear Of Wallacos'
Factory, have for some days past, attracted more
than ordinary attention. The vein of coal
which the Messrs. Wallace Il Co., were in search
Of was reached on yesterday morning, at the
depth of PIG feet, verifying the reports of the
auger, previously driven.
The thickness of the vein, has not, as yet,
been fully tested. The indications Of the au-
ger were, that it was somewhere between seven
and half and eleven feet. Workmen, on
yesterday, penetrated the vein o; coal to the
depth of between three and one-half and four
feet, and not only found coal, but vein of ex-
tIaordinary fine quality. And, moreover, the
blast which blew up this treasure, also, opened
up gushing spring of salt water, which has
flowed in with such rapidity ever since, that
the miners have been unable to prosecute their
work--and that they may do so, the Company
are getting machinery for pumping the water
from the bottom of the nit.
These discoveries are, to this city, Invaluable.
There is no doubt now, but there is an mex.
haustible vein of-stone- coal lying underneath
the city Of misunderstanding to the "re-
gions round about" and of a quality equal, if
not superior, to that mined at Pomeroy. For
gas purposes, it is the opinion of those who
profess to be judges, that this vein has no su-
perior in the western country--is not e&celled
in quality by the much boastel Pittsburgh coal.
With such facilities for securing fuel, what
other ctyin tho Union possesses such valuable
manufacturing advantages2 Here, manuiactu-
ring establishments can bo erectel--coal shafts
driven-and the same power which drives the
machinery applied, drawing material from the
bowels of the earth, to keep the same in motion.
The coal drawn up too, AMI almost thrown into
the furnace ITSELF by the same agency.
With these and other facilities, and advan-
tages--!the healthfulness and beauty of location
-the cheapness Of proporty-ths superior ship
ping advantage by river as well as railroads, all
90 to prove, that nature has intended Steuben-
vile to be larger, more populous and prosper
GUS city than she really is--and from recent dis
coveries, it is more than evident now, all that is
required to make this one Of the first class cities
|of the west, is that which slime and capital'
must sooner or later develop. For Steubenville

New PATENT CAR C0UPLING.-Mr. Joshua
G. Price, of New Philadelphia, has just recev-
ed patent for his lately invented improvement
in Self Disengageing Car Couplings. The let
tcrs patent were issued Feb II, 1857. 1t is
designed to obviate the objections made by rail-
road men to these couplings which part when
the slightest accident occurs and no danger to
be apprehended; it disengages when there is
real danger Ifa car simply 'jumps" the track,
the result will be that the car, instead of un-
coupling itself from those in front or rear ofwll
still remain coupled to those on TIE track. But
should the coupling links be broken, and the
car thrown from the tack so as to endanger it.
self and others by going over, or drawing 9TH
ers after it, the coupling isso ingeniously ar
ranged that in this exigency it will disengage
itselrand drag no other car after it. 1t will be
observed that the great fault which has been
found with the couplings called "self disengage-
ing was that they parted upon the most trivial
accidents which mightoccur. Nodanger is ap-
pretended from cars Jumping the rail, that is,
running off the track, and the car need not de-
tach itself for the safety of life or property But
when the car flies off at an angle which is likely
to draw other cars off the rail and down bank,
this coupling disengages ITSELF and leaves the
other cars on the track in safety. The explain
|ations Of the simple contrvance which secures
this result, we leave to the patentee who resides
