TIE PRoTECrIoN or FISH Last winter
q special committee of five was appointed
to consider numerous memorials on this
subject The other day, Mr.. Langdon, OF
Hamilton read Il long and able report on
the, subject Of angling, and reported a
stringent bill, prohibiting certain kinds Of
fishing in the inland waters of Ohio.s The
bill, however, was lost in the House. A
motion to reconsider, was laid upon the
| table, which will give the friends of the
billan opportunityto callitup again, if they
thfhE proper. The menIoiials'for the pro
! lection of fish and game ray6 been very
numerous this winter. Ihe prospect is
that the game bill will pass. a.H "a.
TIE SLouGn CAsr-Our readers arc
probably aware that the election to fill tho
vacancy occasioned by the expulsion o
MIR, Slough was very close. The ceryiiii
cate was given to Mr. Slough; after which
errors were discovered in the returns whicl
elected Mr.. Hosea by II votes. Boil
claimsnts came up here. Mr.. Slough's
friends urged Mr.. Slough not to presen
his certificate, and we understand they
have succeeded i'll persuading him to re
turn home without presenting his certii
cate, thus leaving the field open to Mr.
Hosea, who will probably be admitted t.
his seat this morning. Mr.. Hosea is
fine looking gentleman, and is said to b
one Of the best. business men in Cincinna
ii. HewilI be quite an acquisition to oul
body. .H'1".' ",
| THE CANAL CoNTRAcrs- The most ex
citing question of the presentisession, aut
the one upon which there appears to be tn
greatest diversity Of opinion among tn
Republicans both in and out Of the Legis
. lature, is the, precise action necessary to b
taken in regard to the Canal contracts
Many favor tie direct Reputation of tn
contracts; others favor appropriations 70
carrying out the contracts until they ar
declared null and void by the courts
-Four distinct propositions have been dis
cussed in caucus, and, as no conclusio
was arrived at, all these propositions ar
now before the Legislature. During til
discussions many charges were brough
against leading Republican papers and oil
ators. We regret to see that Mr.. Gris
void Of the Senate and the editor of th
Ohio State Journal have got into an un
pleasant difficulty which, if not soon sci
tied. may.injuTe the cause. We hope tn
matter may be amicably arranged at an eal
ily day. ;.'' ',.' '.I " u.s.. .',,' @'

| days We have been investigating the cor
I tracts for the past two years; and we yer
much fear weryhall find that the contract
have been Very loosely entered into. Til
n fact is, the present State officers seem
have acted on this matter without due con
/ sideFationsd But of this we shall be beue
able to speak hereafter. '.'' 'a'-f- '|o
