Mn. EDIToR--D Dear Sr--There has been but
very little business before the Legislature for the
past week, that will be OF much interest to the
readers Of the Telegraph Mr.. Dobmeyer's Gin.
cinnati police BILL truly modern democratic
move, passed the house by strict party vote
1t provides for the appointment, precious to the
spring election, by the Mayor, Police Judge, aud
city Auditor, board of commissioners consist
ing Of 6ye whose duty it shall be TO appoint the
whole police force of the city. Mr. Rogers Of
Clark, Republican, moved to amend, so that the
appointments should be made by officers elect
cd at the coming election but this would not
do, The republicans in all probability will car
ry the election, aud the consequence would be,
that it would give the republicans the power
that the democrats were fishing after. The bill
passed as originally introduced, and is now iu
Senate.
Mr. Hitchcock OF Geauga, has introduced
bill, making it lawful for any person to kill any
= dog that is found running at large without its
owner, that is not entered upon the assessors
hst ioF thAouOu, aOu pToNlOeS innt no person
shall be liable in any larger amount for killing
any dog than that at which they are listed for
taxation. Should this bill pass, il will be well
for those having dogs of any UaIue, to see that
they are listed for taxation, aud at such prices,
that they would be fully compensated if the
dog should be killed, provided that they collect
the amount)
Another bill is before the House, making it
a penal offence for stealing or killing any dog
So you see there is strong feeling in the e-
gislature for the protection Of sheep, and good
dogs and rather tight on all the worthless ours.
Mr.. A liens bill relating to the duties of SUI
pervisOrs Of roads is now under discussion in
the House, il is good bill, prepared with gr at
care. aid ought to become law
Mr. Der mirgs bill reducing the time Of stays
on Judgments, is 10 the hands Of select c, NJ
mittee. and understand will receive uuani-
nous report in favor Of its passage.
The report Of the Treasury investigating
committee is now before the Senate, and here
with send you copy.
Mr. Simmons introduced q resolution for IA
sine die adjournment of the Legislature on the

Mn. REEp :---Eveybody up here regrets that
you was deprived Of the privilege Of coming to
our place in the Gidding's procession. as you
would have eaten o good supper at Jolly John
T'hompsons. but for fear Of rain, and the doubt
as TO the time Of arrival Of the old veteran
we all want TO see you, OF course.
The eyes Of the nation are now turned from
Mr.. Giddings TO his Constituents. to see how
they will take leave Of the man who has served
them so long and nobly in Congress- and who
on retiring received honors never bestowed on
any other member.
The festival is now determined on, and surely
his constituents will not meet to tell him he is
not re-elected--but to honor the man, who has
so long bravely borne the banner Of freedom.
1t is proposed to present him gold medal, at
pirate leave can be taken Of the man, whom
the nation honors, for his unfalterng defence Of
the right
The device on such a medal, might be a stall
wart man Staying bloodhound
Or what would be the same "old Gid chok-
ing to death u s. Marshal
hope the festival will be delayed long
enough, to enable the women of Ohio, aud the
Reserve, to testify in this manner their sense #
his devotion to freedom. EUGENIA.
lNsuRANcE.-lhose of our readers who are
casting about Tor insurance, will fad eastern
companies Of character, aud worthy Of their
confidence, on application to II. FAssErT, whose
advertisement appears in the present No. Of the

been in favor of eastern stock companies aud
more especially for Connecticut companies -
Our neghbOr is agent for the Charter Oak,
Hartford, City Fire Insurance Co, New Haven,

Mass Wethink that either Of these Companies
will be found reliable, prompt and liberal. The
readers will examine the representations Of each,
aud no doubt arrive at the conclusion, that few
Companies are able to make as good show.
BY the way, why have we not the capital in
AshtabuIa, to warrant the organization OF an

that the capital is at hand, and the men, who
are abundantly qualified to sucure its successful

kind now in mind. Is not this subject worthy

Where you'll get the worth OF your money and more,

With Prices lower, and quality higher,
Than before was known in town,
And thus they have gained high renown;
So come at once with your dollars and Dimes
And prove the truth of these rustic rhymes.
Their goods the choicest, the richest and best
That mer were bro't so far to the West;
And Il you've doubt of this statement from me-
Just call there yoursef-and 10! you will see,
Such splendid array before,
Has greeted your eyes In village store!
They have beautiful silks of every hue,
Bayadere stripes, and Persian too
Mcrinoes fine, and splendid Cashmere,
All famed for their quality far aud near;
And when you see them ln SURE you'll wJndSi
How they sell so cheap and not "go under"
They have the incest Paramettas too
And Delanes of patterns rich and ntW;
With prints of every variety rare,
Which were selected with the greatest care;
And all will be sold to suit the " Hard Times"
so Hurrnh bring on your dollars and dimes
They have laces and ribbons, for tnling sum,
With gloves and hosiery, cheap as fun
And carpets whose texture, so rich and bright
Fills every beholdePs heart with delight;
And few choice groceries, so fresh nd nice
That soon as theyr seen, they sell in trice.
All these things I've named, and thousand more,
Are sure to be found in this wonderful store,
Where the merchants kind and the clerks polite,
And they show their goods with genrous delight;
Charging you nothing at all for the sightl
Tho its better far, than circus parade,
So come and see, If you cannot trade.
And when once the splendid array you've seen
You'll loudly excSim as did Sheba's Queen,
We have heard much, but lol and behold
The half TO US has been told
And IL you've dollar even a dime,
You'll buy yourselves rch in less than time;
Then homewa ard turning, before,
You'll bless your stars for SMITH LocKwooDs store.

pare the way for doing honor to the Hon ]. II

DIR. Richmond, Hall and Kellogg. in support of
the following resolutions, which we're adopted
without dissent.
ResOlred By this mceting, That the friends
and constituents of our late Representative,
the Hon. j. r. GIDLISGs, he invited 10

on his return from public life.
Rcs0lred, That a committee of seven be
appointed to net as Committee of Ar
rangements, whose duty it shall be to fix
