OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES state Taxes,


The Legislature ia now in the fiith week oil
tho eession, and the people naturally begin 90
look for some evidences OF what 10 to be done
In the way Of relrenchment aud reduction OF
our State and local taxes, In order to make the
burden Of the inevitable Federal taxes as light
as possible.
1t ia quite probable that each member OF the
General Assembly feels deep interest in the
matter, and that there ls an all pervading desire
TO cut down our taxes, in certain branches of the
public service. hut with all this, we Incline tc
the opinion that the new burdens the Legisla
turs will impose, will In the end exceed any re-
duoIion which will result from its labors--ane
therefore, so far as the people have looked Of
may look to this Legislature for relief, We In
Glue to the opinion they will be disappointed.
We do not say this in any spirit Of fault-fnd
Ing, aud sincerely hope We may be mistaken
but still we venture the prediction that beyond
the cutting down of the salary of some unfor
tunate Office holder, but little will be done bI
the "UnIoh" Legislature of the State Of Ohio
in the way Of retrenohment and reform. Should
It be otherwise, we will make the necessary &C
knowledgment.

Last August, Mr.. Sturgos, hearing from head

subject. Mr. Sturges returned home, and 10
ten days learned tue boat had been taken pos

and was being used ss Q gunboat The next
