The Public Works,

The Ohio State journal publishes an Off
Gial statement of the receipts and expendi-
lures of the Public Works for the three quar-
tiers ending August 18th. We have before
stated the deficiency of the first half of the
year. The receipts for the third quarter
were $lO56l8 SO. The expenditures for the
same period were $lOO,304 81, leaving the
net revenue for the quarter $5,3l3 81. The
receipts for the three quarters were $l9l, ,O2O.
The expenditures for the same period were
$27s, ,59l, leaving deficit of $8I57l.
The Legislature appropriated $4,000 and
the revenue of the public works for their re-
pairs. This will reduce the deficit to $65, ,57l,
which has got to be made up on the quarter
ending November Is, or will be for the
Legislature to make up. 1t is safe to say that
it will not be made up by the revenue,
though probably all the repairs and pay
ments that can possibly be put off will be
carried over to the future. Also, the struc-
lures that last spring imperatively required
rebuilding, have been left to Providence, be-
cause all the means were required to repair
the extraordinary damage from food.
All damage has become extraordinary
now; and, under the system, any hard
shower will result in extraordinary damage.
1t is singular that people who insist that if
the Public Works are put out of the control
of the State, they will run down, can not see
that they are now running down as fast as
the natural decay will run them; and that all
that the State does is to allow an army of
political rats to exhaust, in impotently fol-
lowing up extraordinary damages, the
revenue which, in private hands, would put
them in good order, and beyond the reach Of
the regular failures which, in the Public
Works vocabulary, are called extraordinary
casualties. The Public Works are now, prac-
tically, abandoned by the State. 1t refuses
to appropriate whatthe Board afirms to be in
dispensable to put them in reliable condition
All it does for them is to pension a political
organization upon them.

SINGULAR AND PAINFUL ACCIDENT IN Ten
NEssEE-A Nan Killed and his Wife Dan
SeTOuSly WOunded.-A correspondent writ
ing from Decaturville, Tennessee, under date
of the l4th inst, gives the following par
ticulars of terrible calamity:
AS some negroes were passing the road
leading from this place to Perryville, this
mol lning, near "Rushing's Greek, they were
attracted by the cries of female and upon
examination found near the road a woman
lying by the fire with her husband both
confined by a log across them. II appears
that they were travelling, and had stopped to
camp, and had built their fire near dead
tree, which caught fire latter they had fallen
asleep) and burning off near the ground, fell
angling across them, breaking both the
wOman's legs Just below the knee, and killing
the man almost instantly, Upon interro-
eating the woman, we learned that the tree
had fallen across them several hours before
day, and that her husband lived long enough
to tell her what to do after he was dead.
She said she called until she could call no
longer, for some one to come to her relief
after her husband died, not being able TO
extricate herself She also stated that her
maiden name was Watts, and that her hus-
bands name was Jefferson Kelly; that they
had been married about three months, and
were going across Tennessee River where
corn was cheaper.

The RepubIicnn BTeaI-Tub.

We are pleased to learn by those queer
specimens of Republicanism-the Gazette
and Commereial-what a charming, harmless
man Mr.. Lincoln is on the slavery question,
and how tenderly he is going to deal with it
when elected The Gazette endows him
with a string of negative qualities that
would admirably fit him for the office of
major -domo of harem. He is not at all op-
posed to the increase of slave States; in fact
rather likes it; is much attached to the
Fugitive-slave Law; would not by any
means have slavery abolished in the District
of Columbia, and is particularly strenuous
that the negro shall be kept in an inferior
condition: the more inferior the better he
will like it, of course. Really, we find the
irrepressible conflict slipping from our
fingers just as we thought we had it sure.
= The Commercial which is celebrated for
its remarkable ideas on political--and other
subjects, is convinced that Mr.. Lincoln is
really for popular sovereignty and non-in-
tervention on the slavery question in the
Territories, and that in his celebrated contest
with Douglas in Illinois, Lincoln was really
striving to oust Douglas from his popular
sovereignty hobby, and get his own long
legs astride the saddle.
1t rather puzzles one to know what the
contest is all about. 1t seems to us that, ac-
cording to this, the Republicans are only
the trespassers on the grounds of the other
parties. They have no visible means of sup
port, and are making night hideous and the
heavens unsavory with their coal-oil, with
out excuse. They make themselves out to
be vagrants, and Judge Lowe ought to send
them up for thirty days, justenough to carry
them over the election. Here would be ma
terial on which he could indulge his habit.
The feline claws will stick out in spite of
all this conservative meal. The Southern
bird is too old to be caught by sprinkling
that kind of fresh salt on its tail The Illi-
nois wolf may take to his bed and cover his
ears with night-cap, and feign delicate
condition, but the little Red Riding Hoods
of the South can see what great eyes he has
got, and they know what that great mouth
is for. They know his irrepressible appetite
for the woolly flavor, and are not going to
let him come within reach of their colored
lambs,

time when national parties, in fact as well
as in name, may have an existence. Hith-
ertc, for many years, the nationality claimed
hes been only a pretense and we have
right TO be glad over the chapter OF acci-
dents that has unvailed the actualities ofou
political condition. Instead of the estab-
lishment of Northern domination to con-
tinue through all future time--as many pro-
fess to apprehend-there will be roem for a
basis upon which to found parties upon
questions of national policy, the only ones
of which cognizance should nationally be
taken. Out of these agitations, therefore,
which to timid people seem so ominous,
there is ground to hope for peace to come
and that the question which every body has
asked, "When will this tiresome, useless,
senseless slavery agitation come to an end,
will be answered,

A MAN SEVERELY WHIPPED IN ALABAMA
FOR SYMPATHY WITH THE NoRTH-An Sab
olitionist," in other words, an unpopular
man, named BaRley, near Uniontown, Ala
bama, was apprehended on the night Of the
18th of October, on a public road, and
whipped by individuals in disguise for
having uttered the following language to a
respectable citizen: 'If the Union is dis
solved, and q political war ensues, | will.be
damned if | do not go North, shoulder my
musket and fight against the South; there is
no one here that / care a damn about any
way, except my wife, and can very conve-
niently carry her with me. My folks are all
North, and / will be damned TO hell if |
don't fight against the South as long as there
is any necessity for it," Afterward a pub
lie meeting of the citizens of Uniontown
was held, and the chastisement of Bagley
cordially approved. A resolution was also
adopted denouncing the editor of the Selma
(Ala.) Seainel, for an attempt, as the resola-
ton asserted to make political capital out
of the affair.

Humors of Voluntary Fire Department.

HumOrs Of Voluntary Fire Department.
At Toledo, few days ago, fire burned
down about eighteen buildings, within 300
feet of the dock. They have fire depart
ment in Toledo, which is splendid on parades.
The Times Of that place accounts for the un-
interrupted performance of the fire, by say
ing that the City Council has taken the heart
cut of the fire department, by refusing a
company permission to go to Perrysburg-
to fremen's tournament, we suppose-and
by prosecuting some of them for lending
their hose. So, we suppose, as the heart has
been taken from the firemen, no water can
be expected from them, and the buildings
will have to burn. Some thing should be
done to restore their heart, if it has such an
effect on their delivery.

Southern Birds Driven to Northern LutI-
tudes.


Secession seems to 'e a migratory bird
and with habits the everse of all other
birds. 1t has left the South, and just as
cold weather approaches it makes its appear
ance north of the Ohio. Now there is no se-
cession in the South, except now and then a
croak in the far off sand barrens of South
Carolina, or over the "oyster fundum" of
Accomac. Even in Kentucky, almost with
in sight of our city, Mr.. Yancey sings the
most loyal Union songs. But he comes over
the border, and straightway Richard is himself
again. As if his foot was once more on his
native heath, he reverts to his normal con-
dition, a full-blooded secessionist.
Why this change? Why should Mr.. Yam
cey be a conservative Union man on the
south side of the Ohio, and Constitutions
secessionist on the North sidei Is it that
secession can frighten the Bell-Everetts on
this side, while on the other, the Bell
Everetts frighten the Democracy out of theil
secession? The change of tune is not fiat
tering to our people.
