m. st,,e PrIptius and Binding

Our blessed new State Constitution attempts
to regulate everything pertaining to the State,
from the Judiciary down to the printing and
binding, and requires that both the latter shall
be let to the lowest responsible bidder. The
act of 1852 requires the Secretary, Auditor and
Treasurer of State to advertise for sealed pro-
posals for the execution of the State printing
for two years, and to take bonds of the lowest
responsible bidders in the sum of 5000. If
they fail to give bonds within ten days, then the
contract is to be given to the next lowest bidder
who will give bonds as aforesaid.
At the late letting of the Public Printing, the
first contract was awarded to J. II. Smith ofthe
Ohio Statesman, I'd, Sd, and 4th to S. F. Tur-
ney, an employee in FOllett, Foster d Cos Of
fee, and the fifth to Thos Wetzler & Co., an en-
ployee in the Ohio Statesman Steam Printing
House The bills were below living rates
all the bidders, some twelve in number, de-
clined to execute the required bonds, except
Geary & Son, and Osgood d Pearee, on part
Of their bids The Gazette says
TIE officers of State, after discussing the pro-
priety of throwing out all the bids, aud adver-
tising for new proposals, became fully satisfied
after further examination of the law, that they
had no other alternative than TO give the work
to the lowest bidder who would furnish the re-
quired bonds.
Accordingly the 2st and 5th contracts were
awarded TO OsgoOd d Pierce, the 2d and 81 and
4th to Gsary d Son, it being understood, how
ever, that Richard Nevins, Esq, the present
State printer, would take the contracts off their
hands, they receiving consideration.
1t is publicly staCed on the streets. that the
real successful contractor, Mr.. Nevins, paid out
10 certain establishments in this city over
$4,000, on condition that the proprietors shoald
decline giving bends and from certain facts
within our knowledge, we have no doubt OF the
fact The cost of the State printing for the
two years amounts to about SIS, 900. TIE diff
ference in price between the lowest bids offer
ed and the lowest bids taken would amount to
between $4,000 and IS, ,00O-a good speculation
for the contractors, but a bad operation for the
State. But it was done according to law, and
who dare gainsay 1t Z
The German printing was awarded to Rein
hard d Fieser, at their bid-the only one offer
ed-at 40 cents per 1000 ems for composition,
35 cents per token for presswork, and IS cents
per thousand words for translation.
The contract for binding was awarded to Hay
jen Wheat, who declined giving bond. The
deeliHiAg system so successfully practiced with
the printing proposals proved equally efficient
with the binding, and all in accordance with
law. 1t was finally awarded to Follett, Foster
Il Co, who gave bonds The contract for the
State binding amounts to something like SI5,-
600 or $4,000 for the two years.
Great is the wisdom of the Constitution It
lets the State Printing and Binding to the low
est bidder-in horn.

JUsT SESTENcE.-Justice Bagg, of Detroit
recently sentenced liquor seller named Lane
to jail for 30 days on charge of furnishing
liquor to a minor. Lsne threatened the boy
with punishment if he swOre against him, but
other evidence was procured.
Similar efficiency on the part of our police
would soon I'LL the CuyshOga jail, but would
doubtless save many lads from irretrievable ru-
in. Drinking, billiard, and gambling saloons
are just as public all over the city as churches,
and their portals stand open seven days and
nights in the week TO the churches one. Drunk
ards are arraigned every week day. druHkard-
makers never.

The washington Union and Douglas.

The Washington Union keeps up its fire OF
Senator Douglas without cessation, and is con.
siantly taunting him with the ignominious be-
trayal he has suffered at the hands of his pro-
fessed friends in Ohio. The Buchanan organ Of
the Ilth inst, e1uItingly says:
=" Mr. Douglas is in a most unenviable condi.
tiOn No leading member of the Democratic
party ever made war upon it under auspices so
unpromising to his own future. He expected
confidently that he would divide the party al
most into halves and place himself at the mead
of one. But his adherents in both houses of
Congress are less than the smallest cOrporaIs
guaTd-tOo small TO defeat or carry measure,
even with the alliance of all the other enemies
OF the Administration. State after State repu-
dates or ignores him. Witness the recent ae-
tion Of OkiO'S noble Democracy from lchom he Il
knoirn 10 hare looked for a triumphant end0rge-
HseHi q his course! Our ranks are everywhere
closing up. Mr. Douglas and his boasted broad
sides are becoming less and less important every
day"
On the other hand Senator Douglas spurns
and defes the Washington Union. He is un-
spariug of his denunciatiOns of the Administra-
tiOn organ, which he denies the Union to be
In a late speech he declared the Union to be
the organ of nothing " but off set of lobby men
and Presidential aspirants about Washington
men who care nothing for anything if they
can get the control of the Government to OBJ
tain which they know but one way, to devise a
system of policy to kill off every man of brains
in the country, SO that msiiOcrity may bel in

TYPHOID FkvER.-This severe and frequent
ly fatal disease is prevailing to some extent in
various sections Of the country. A number Of
deaths occurred in Geauga County, and the Co
lumbus Gazette states that fifty cases of typhoid
fever were reported by the physician of the
Ohio PenitenfiAry, in that institution, on
Wednesday of last week. But few cases in the
Penilentiary as yet have proved fatal. Up 10
the appearance of the fever, the convicts this
season have been remarkably healthy.

HAMILTON COUNTY.-The " State of Hamil-
ton" forms two Congressional districts, both
represented by dOugh-face Democrats. The
Commercial thinks that in the First the eandi-

Pendleton, the present member. 1t says the
race between these gentlemen will be beauti-
ful one. In the Second District matters are
more mixed ]. A. Gurley viii probably be the
candidate of the Opposition, but there is some
doubt whether W S. GrOesbeck will receive the
nomination Of his party for a second term.

LecOmpton question, is lAboring tc secure the
nomination, and Groesbeck's vote for the Mont.

Yearly Jubilee on LittIe nIouutain.

Saturday, the l4th inst, was a gala time Oh
that most delightful spot in Northern Ohio, the
Little Mountain of Lake county. The Inde-
pendent Order Of Good Templars and Othel
Temperance Organizations of WillOughby,
Kirkland, Mentor, PainesviIle, Chagrin Falls,
Chardon, etc, 10 the number OF some two
thousand, held grand Picnic and Jubilee
the temperate, the young, and the joyous OF
both sexes The weather was clear and cool,
and the day was spent in listening to speeches
BY the great Temperance Reformer, John R
Williams, Henry Chance, the Brosd-aIe" of
Stark, and others; social converse, music, feast
ing, rambling in the pine woods and shady
glens, clHmbering among the rocks, exploring
the cool grottos and caves, aud dancing in the
Assembly Rooms of the Mountain Houses.
Some three hundred and fifty "lads and lasses"
formed cotillion sets at the same time, and IN
nOcent hiIarity and good feeling abOunded at
the jubilee of the Good Templars. Such rural
holidays, free from the debasing influence of
strong drink, are pleasant and profitable to the
young, the middle-aeed, and the old.
