WHEREAS, Your honorable body have seen fit in
their wisdom to egisate for the laborious borrow.
er, against the cupidity of the relentless money.
lenders Of the State, by fixing the value of money
at very low rates and whereas, your petitioners
believing that many other articles are too high, thus
compelling the poorer classes of our citizens to
suffer for the want Of many Of the comforts and
conveniences of life:
AND WHEREAS, Believing that your honorable
body in your wisdom, should fix the price of Pro.
visions, Horses, Cattle. Sheep, Hogs and Merchun.
disc in general, your petitioners would very re.
speetfully suggest that the prices of those articles
be regulated by law and at such prices will en-
able tho buyer to obtain them without the necessi.
ty of borrowing money, as it will necessarily be
very hard to obtain at the fixed rate OF interest
Your petitioners would also suggest that if the
price of money is fxed at six per cent. and no
more. tina. the price Of Horses should be fixed at
fifty dollars, Cows at ten dollars, and all other
stock at corresponding prices; end your petition
ers pray protection against all exorbitaut prices of
Wheat, Flour, Pork, beef and oil other eatables
whatsoever.
Your petitioner Swould also suggest, that your
honorable body, by series of legislation, would
consider the price of Groceries, Merchandise in
general. and Liquors in particular, and fix by law
the rates at which such articles should be sold,
making them at corresponding prices with the
price of money, and thus enable the poorer classes
of our State to live on an equality with the more
wealthy.
Your petitioners. believing, also that the passage
Of the six per cent. interest law, will have great
tendency 20 drive capital and capitalists from our
State to other States in pursuit Of better invest.
ments, at higher rates of interest," would very re,
spectfullly ask snch legislation as will prevent the
taking of any amount over Ave dollars of any
kind whatsoever, out of the limits of the State.
and thereby you will further the great objects for
which you have alrsady so wisely legislsted.
Believing the above proposed regulations to be
very important TO the people of the great State of

EMANCIPATION IN RUSSIA.

The cmancip patton question seems to be making
steady. though not very rapid, progress in Rus
sia. A good deal Of attent n has been excited
there by essay on the subject by Mr.. Kokoraf,
prominent capitalist, who proposes that tho Gov
ernment itself sbal undertake TO indemnify the
proprietors at an equal rate throughout the EN-
pire, and thus not only free the ser(s but relieve
them from oil Indebtedness to their present own
ers lie sets down the value Of the whole mass OF
serfs at one thousand millions Of rublcs, Of which
value one half is mortgaged to the various public
money lending establishments. lie proposes to
repay the full value Of the one thousand millions
CT rubes in Government obligations at Eve
per cent; and to set aside one.per cen, yearly as
sinking fund, by which these obligations would
be redeemed at the end of 81 years. THIS would
add CO. 0000, 600 rubles yearly to the national OK
pcndisure and ho would raise this sum by in.
creased taxation levied on the emanci pated serfs.
The Crown peasants now pay to the Treasury a
personal tax Of seven rubles, while the serf only
pays two rubles, making difference OF Eve rubles
a year each, and this addition they could easily
pay on being set free Tithout:the obligation Of in
Identifying their masters from the proceeds Of
their own labor. Reckoning the number of serfs
to be emancipated at 12,0 900 900 this increase in
the taxation would, at the beginning, yield the
60.OOO,0O0 rubles required by the Government,
while the natural increase in the population would
constantly add to the revenue, and render the
transaction not only a safe, but q profitable one
for the Treasury. The author of this ingenious
proposition also suggests as the means Of render.
ing the execution of it easy and certain, tha: the
emancipated serfs should be endowed with the
right to- buy land, which at present.a noble owner
can only sell to another noLcman and, ALSO that
the wild lands belonging to the Government
should be thrown open to purchasers. Tribune.

RATHER SUSPICIOUS.

There was a distinguished stranger upon the
floor OF the House for a couple ofhOurs yesterday,
March 3rd)-Smiih O'Brien, the Irish revolu.
ZIONIST. He was the object Of much attention up.
on tho part of the members, but he seemed to be
monopolized by the shareholders principally. In
his personal appearance, be is commanding and
has fine face. His hair shows the trouble and
anxiety OF mind he has endured for a half dozen
years back, for it is grey and bordering upon
white, but his face is still smiling, and indicates
contented mind.
O'Brien will not gain much sympathy in the
free States if he shows himself to be in such close
alliance with the slave.driyers Of this country.
Here in Washington, he is staying With John
Mitchell, goes everywhere with him, and aesoci
ates principally with the fire eaters Now who is
John Mitchell? ? One Sf the wickodest scouudres
in the world, tyrant, despot, man who de.
clsres that ere'y man with drop of African blood
in his veins should be made chattel of and EN-
trn,ed at once. 1t is with such men that Smith
O'Brien fraternises The fact is that these Irish
patriots were bad men, and England judged them
right when she sent them to Botany Bay. Would
that John Mitchell were there now, fer he uses
his liberty in trying to perpeuate a worse than
Irish slavery, in this country. 1t is to Se hoped
that the antislavery people of Ireland will watch
the conduct of O'Brien and sottle the matter with
him when he returns Correspondent Ohio STATE

The ADOPTION OF CHILDREN.-The bill of Sen
ator Garfield "to authorise the adoption of chill,
dren" has passed the Senate and probably will the
House 1t provides that any single person, male
or female, or any husband and wife, may adopt
any minor child with the consen. of the parent or
guardian. The process is by petition to Court,
when the wife is to be examined separate and
apart from her said husband, and if the Court
shall be satisfied of the fitness and propr;e,y Of
such adoption, it shall make an order declaring
the minor to be the child henccforth Of the adopt
ed parents, changing its name. and divesting the
natural parents of all rights in regard to it. The
child to be the legal heir of tho adopter, entitled
to all the rights. and subject to all the obligations
