charge the State defalcation on the republi-

rather dangerous game, to say nothing Of

Lieae. Governor.-senator TayIor.

Tho Republican papers in Senator Tay-
iors District are urging his nomination FOR
Lieutenant Governor. He has presided
over the Senate with marked ability, impair
tiality and dignity, IN the absence of Lieut..
Gov. Ford, and is staunch and well tried
friend Of freedom. If the latter gentleman
should decline denomination, tho seIcc-
ton could not be more worthily made than
in the choice of Mr.. Taylor. His district
gave a round eight thousand majority for
the Republican ticket last year, aud its
claims should be fairly considered, ,-cspec-
tally, when preferred by so estimablo man
as the veteran Senator from Geauga.-Reg-
ister.
We understand that Gov. FoRD has do
clined denomination for this position, and
We are, therefore, of the opinion that no bet
ter selection could be made. Tho Rcpub.

1t turns out that at the first riot nine per-
sons were killed, all Of whom died from the
effect Of firearms. AT the same riot %
persons were badly injured, about one half
having been shot, and the other half receiv-
ing cuts and bruises. At the second riot
the number seriously wounded was eight
seven of whom were shot in various places,
and some Of them had contusions besides.
1t seems from these facts, that tho maraud-
era were generally armed with guns or pis-
tolls, and that the affrays were of most
deadly character. We notice that the courts
are dealing out summary punishment to the
offenders Toledo Blade.

The Kansas correspondent of the New
York Tribune writes that the Free State
Mashals and Deputy Marshals are busily
at work. avery mans name is placed on
the census list The memmorial for the
Topeka Constitution is presented to every
man. Iti expected that at least 10000
squatters viii sign it. 1t will require great
effort and considerable outlay for travelling
expenses to have the census taken as thor
oughly as designed" When it is remem-
bered that the whole vote cast at the elec-
ton Of delegates to the Border Ruffian Con-
yention, was less than two thousand, the
moral weight that must go with the sigma
lures of twenty thousand citizens of Kansa,
for tho admission of the territory as State
under the Topeka Constitution, and the i'm
snense preponderance Of the Froe State mer
will be appreciated.

Wo have received from the Superntcn-
dent +. B. PanLrrs, the Annual Report Of
tho Company, showing It's condition on The
lst Of june, 1857, and also It's wbolo busi-
mess 10 that date.
Both divisions Of the road are In good or
der, and the receipts show steady increase
as follows:
Year ending June I, 1855, s7so,s2o AZ
June /, 1856, 9el,47l 10
Juno /, 1867, l,l44,soO 10
During the eleven months ending April
3oth, 1857, there wero 7os,ll9 passengers
carried over the road. Tho Fremont sta
tion has contributed very largely to the
number Of passengers, 1881 have left the
cars here, and 1l,osl have taken the cars
at this point. During the Same length Of
time there have been received at tae station
1472 tons of freight, and 3892 tons have
been shipped here. Since the opening Of
the road in December, 1852, 1871, l,o24 pass
engcrs have been carried in tho cars Of the
company. Of this largo number Of per
sons carried, we do not believe there is a
road of the same length in tho country
which has had fewer accidents to its passen-
gers during the same length of time. The
Report says: "The following are the only
cases where passengers have received per-
sonal injuries:
"Jan. Is, 1e53.---Mail train was thrown
from the track few miles east of Elmore.
Irving Steward had his collar bone broken.
"Jan. 1e54.-A passenger who had in
cautiously projected it too far from the car,
had an arm broke by its coming in contact
with bridge.
"Aug. 27, le54.-Night express from
Toledo was thrown from the track by an
OK lying between the rails. Adam Syples
had leg broken; two others were some
what bruised but not seriously.
"April 10, ls56.--Dan Sullivan, an en-
igrant, stepped from the cars at Grafton, on
opposite side from station, crawled under
the car to FIJI his dish with water from the
tank; while laying upon the rail not being
seen, the train was started, running over
and cutting of one of his legs.
"Dec. %, 1e56.-By breaking of wheel
and axle, coach was thrown from track at
Amherst, and Mrs Senter and Mrs. Lee
were badly bruised, but had no bones broke =
The Report reflects great credit upon the
officers of the Road, particularly Mr.. E. B.
Phillips, the Superintendent for its excel
lent management, in every department.

A GREAT WRONG.

The man or mon who concoctcd the
scheme for removing the stocks Of the Sen
ca County Bank from the State Treasury,
were guilty Of a high crime, and ought to
be severely punished. 1t is probable that
those stocks or their equivalent will be
replaced in the Treasury; but the wrong
of removing them is not the less on that ac-
count. There are some millions Of dollars
of bank notes in circulation in Ohio, based
on securities in the hands of State officers.
1t has been hitherto supposed, that what
evcr else might happen, these securities
were safe. It now seems that even the
State cannot hold them safely. The act
which thus destroys confidence where it is
so much needed, and where it ought to have
a sure resting place, is criminal indeed. II
we cannot trust the State authorities, whom
can we trustl We say therefore let this
thing be searched to the bottom. Let swift
and ample retribution be mcted out to the
guilty. And hereafter let all the securities
placed in the hands of the State, be SO
guarded that no rascally official can dispose
of them, A few papers in the State Of
such mental and moral calibre as the Mes
senqer, have undertaken to write out Breslin
innocent and Gibson solely guilty in regard
to the great defalcation in the State Treasu'
ry. Gibson is guilty enough, and we Offer
no excuse for him; but that Breslin is thc
original defaulter, and that Gibson's crime
consists in his attempt to conceal Breslin'
wrong, no well informed man scriousl,
doubts. Let one thing be observed, Gibson
from the first stated these to be the facts
and Breslin has not denied them.
