CONNECuCUr.-The official vote for Governor

The Ohio Legislature at its recent session passed
law subjecting Ohio State stock to taxation. The
Cincinnati Commercial says: Under the act
the State says to its domestic creditors, we borrow
of you at six per cent. per aud charge you
per cent. and upwards for the privilege" This, it
to us, is unfair to those who have invested in
these securities at six per cent prior to the passage
of the act and will tend to deprecae the value of
the stocks in the ratio of the per cent of taxation
and will give foreign holders decided advantage
over our own citizens.

This instrument, which is the invention of Col. R..
B. Buoch, late of this city, combines the best ea-

from its vast superiorites is destined to supersede
the old machine. The Improvement is another step

THE NICARAGUAN TREATY.-The National htelli-
gencer learns that contrary to the intimations of
certain correspondents of the Northern press the
Nicaraguan Treaty makes provision for the land
ing of United States troops in Nicaragua with a
view to expel any fibustering expedition that may
have effected descent upon that State, but does
contain a provision allowing Government
to land forces within its territory in order to pro-
tect the persons and property of our citizens when
in danger. The treaty also contains provision
permitting the United States at their pleasure to
send troops and munitions of war across the transit
routes with the reservation that they shall not be
employed against any of the States of Central
America which are in amity with Nicaragua. Unon
these points we learn that the treaty comedies all

Rev. Clement Frachon, Roman Catholic Priest at
st. Thomas, (Ca.,) was stabbed on the night of Fri
day the 18th. y previous attempt the life of the
same gentleman, was made on the night of the lst
inst, when he was seized near his house and at
tempted to be strangled On the nights of the 1st,
and I'd, and the 4th of this month, the windows of
the house in which he dwells were broken by stones
and on some of the congregation keeping watch to
protect the life and property of their pastor, gun
was fired at them the night of the I'd inst It is
not deemed advisable to leave the Priest unattend-
ed by body-guard day or night. Such state of
things is the more unaccountable when we mem
tion that the Rev. Clement Frachon, a Frenchman,
is gentleman of mild and conciliatory department.
and so tar as we can learn, of unblemshed charac-
ter. The universal sentiment is one of the highest
respect towards him. One conclusion at Which
some persons arrive is, that the Rev. gentleman is
the object of attack in consequence of his union
with other ministers and influential laymen of St.
Thomas, to put down the saloons. We understand
he has worked with considerable zeal to suppress
the liquor traffic, and it is just possible that
nifty might on this account, have arisen.-London
