Im5roGliO at Olum5as---''iIice Of Auditor
Some excitement has been caused at
Columbus by the transactions growing out
Of the appointment of R. W. Tayler, Audi
tor Of stste, to the Comptrollership of the
United States Treasury, made vacant on ae-
count Of the death Of Hon. ElishaWhittlesey.
Mr.. Taylor was absent in New York, at
tending to the financial interests Of the
State. Upon the fact of his appointment
BY President Lincoln becoming known at
Columbus, a committee, consisting of
Messrs. Harrison and Randall of the HouiJe
and MoClung of the Senate, waited upon
Governor Tod and prescnte him petition
signed by sixty-twO Unicn members, ask
ing the appointment o1 Judge Wilson of
Greenfield, as State Auditor, in case Tay-
Ter resigned. To their surprise they
learned that Governor Tod had not only
decided in his own mind to appoint to the
Office W T. Kennon, Esq, as the successor
Of Mr.. Tsyler, but had actually sent him
on to New York to complete the business
upon which Mr.. Tayler was engaged. Mr..
Ksnnon is Union Democrat, who re-
signed his seat in the House upon being
appointed Secretary of State to I'll theeA-
eancy caused by the resignation Of Mr..
COwsn. By that change Democrat took
the place Of Republican in the State Of
fees, and by appointing him Auditor the
Governor had placed the sole remaining |
State Office held by Republicans in the
hands Of the Democracy, an act of great
injustice to alarge majority of the Union
party Of the State. Mr.. Kennon had ae-
cepted the office and returned his thanks
by letter, SO that the whole business had |
been thus rapidly disposed of. But it is
now found that the Governor was
rather too hasty and that Mr.. Taylor has
not yet resigned and may not do so. This
fact places the Governor in a predicament
over which the Union Republicans are
both indignant and amused. A letter to
the Cincinnati Gazette says;
"This has brought upon his head the in
dignation Of Union members, almost with
out exception. If he had ever hope of
being elected United States Senator, it is
now completely blasted. Tayler has not
resigned, nor signifed to any one his ac-
esptance of the position Of First Comptrol-
Ter ofthe Treasury"
