re- A few weeks since we gave our views
on the subject of bank law for the State
of Ohio, since which time we see our re-
marks have been extensively copied, favora-
bly, commented upon. The present Legis-
lature should give us a free bank law re-
quiring ample securities, available in any
state of things, and let any body bank who
pIcases. The Cleveland Herald says:
at looks as if there was less hope for a
true Free Banking system in Ohio than ever.
1t is notorious that the State bank system,
with its heavy and needless machinery, is
made to overshadow entirely the Free sys-
tenn. We now have three systems in ope.
ration, and not one of them such as the
State needs and ought to have. The Bank
bill now before the Legislature has beer
stripped of that portion which favored the
Free system, because the decision of The
Supreme Court, which is liable at any an
nual election to be reversed, has galvanized
life into what was supposed dead. Men o
capital will not risk their capital upon dc
cison of any court, and the effect of tn,
cutting off the Free Banking sections will
if the law passes and is sanctioned by tn
people, entirely kill out the Free system il
Ohio. Secure the bill holder, take ava,
tho mystery of Banking by making it fire.
as merchandising, popularize it by making
it pay taxes like other property into the lo
cal treasury, and let Banks be managed a
business generally is, without any system {
espionage, without being liable for the debt
of neighbors, and let the public be ampl
protected by summary remedies for ms
fresance, and political parties will cease
drag Banks into politics, and the State wi
have a safe currency and plenty of it.
"We see the System of New York, simpl
and admirable. 1t could be adopted wit

he was fresh from the constituency Of tho

that the offending member should be sont

review the circumstance of the outrage, and
charged that Mr.. Slough in the presentation

his colleague, and became so personal that
Mr.. Slough in an excited manner rose and

Mr.. Cory reviewed the conduct Of his
party on the subject of rufianism generally,
and attributed the defeat of the party in
Ohio to the fact that its organs and leaders
had endorsed and defended the outrage Of
Brooks or Sumner, and other outrages or
persons, and frauds on the public treasury
endangering the very existence Of the Re
public. Under the lead of such men and
organs, and especially of his colleague dur

There is no enterprise so essential to the
interests of Hancock county, as the compile
ton of this road; and yet there isnone con-
cerning which so much apathy is manifest

but half an eye to sec, that this road involves
the very life and future prosperity of our
county. 1t is emphatically the peoples
road, and it must be built by the people, or
it must 90 down. We are assured of this
fact by men who know the true state of the
case, and in whose word we have entire con-
| fidcnce. We are confident that the road
will pay. If any one will take the trouble
to examine railroad map, which we have
in our Office, he will see that, when compile
ted to Union, on the State line, it will be
one of the best paying roads in the country.

John II. Savage, a Democratic member
of Congress from Tennessee, has made him
self supremely ridiculous over the remains
of his friend Brooks, by eulogizing the
memory of the deceased for his brutal at
tack upon Senatar Sumner With this ex-
ception, the friends of the late Mr.. Brooks
have in good taste, refraned from alluding
to that murderous scene, and the Demo-
cratic members of Congress generally, and
the democratic press, so far as we have no
ted, have been contcnted respectfully,
"-to bury Caesar not to praise him."
This clustering Savage, however, who
most unfortunately for his country, yet
strut and frets his hour upon the stage"
holds up the bleeding wounds of au Amer
lean Senator, stricken down to deaths doal
in the Capitol, and with a fendish malicc
which would do credit to the euologist',
nameskac of the forests, applauds the deco
and cries out Rome had her Brutus, and
America her Brooks, the one struck dowr
a Cesar, and the other Sumner, and tho
world applauds both deeds.
It was in miserable taste to open afrest
the recollection Of that disgraceful day wher
member Of Congress was found bruta
enough to attempt murder eyon in the Sen
ate Chamber and political party bas'
enough TO defend the deed. The great par
allel between the two tragedies is that tn,
true American people-Anthony like
stood over the prosirated form Of their no
bic Senator, and exclaimed,

So blindly does the Democrat follow the

broadly asserts that the Tribune claims il

Columbus, Jan. 30.
Yesterday afternoon was an exciting time
in the House. The galleries and lobbies
were filled, and as soon rs the House was
called to order, Mr. Cory, of Hamilton,
took the tribune, the question being on the
adoption Of the following preamble and
resolution:
Whereas during the morning session Of
Jan. l4th, 1857, of the House Of Represen-
tatives, an assault and battery was commit
ted by John p. Slough, member from
Hamilton county, upon the person Of Darius
Caldwell, member from Ashtabula county
and whereas il Is essential TO the dignity
and decorum Of legislative proceedings that
all infractions Of the rules of this House
should be promptly and properly rebuked
therefore be il
ResoEved, That the said John p. Slough
be, and is hereby expelled from his Office Of
Representative in this body.
His speech was Corry-ish all over. A
Democrat all his life he has the manly in
dependence 10 dcnounce tho wrongs Of his
own party, to depIore them, and to labor to
reciify them--a raro independence it must
be confessed. He has Just risen from a sick
bed, having becn confined with the slaa|l-
pox since the opening Of the session. uE<l
Monday last, but though weak he exhibited
a fcarIessness of consequence in his speech
not oftsn to be met with.
Mr.. Cory spoke eloqucntly on tho out
ragged dignity Of the House, aud the duty ol
members 70 sustain that dignity BY an ex
