COLUMBUS, March 18, 1863.
Editor Democrat -
The great " strategy of the present ses-
sion has, after a protracted and somewhat bit
ter discussion, been consumated by the pas
sage of a bill through the Senate, which bill
originated in the House at the last session,
to give to the CITY of Cincinnati all that por-
ton of the Miami Canal which lies between
Broadway and the Ohio River.
This measure was defeated in the Senate
last winter, but by some influence unknown
to the public has passed that body this win
ter. ] am in possession of information, en-
tirely reliable, that, that portion of this work
which is thus made free gift TO the City Of
Cincinnati, could have been sold at any time
for from fifty to one hundred thousand dol
lars, but with all these facts before them, the
Senate passed the bill, and the people must
be taxed to make up the amount. The
County bounty BILL so long delayed in its
passage, has been again amended by the
House and sent back to the Senate for their
concurrence, and sincerely hope this bill
may become law before the close of the
present week, and the families of volun-
teers receive the bounty money which has
for so long time been uniusty withheld
from them Bills are being put through, just
now. at Railroad speed, thirteen having
passed in one day, and nearly all of these in
one afternoon. -
A bill has been rushed through to protect
sheer and to restrain dogs from running at
large This bill provides that it shall be un-
lawful for dogs to go at large, between the
hours of in the evening and 6 in the morn
ing and if so found at large, whether by the
consent of the owner or not, said dog can be
killed, and the person killing him is entitled
to $3.50 from the Township Treasury.
/ believe this law will prove to be very
bad one, and produce bad results, aud if the
vote should be taken over again, would,
think, be defeated, but whether that end can
be attained in this rush Of business / am un-
able to say. ...

The Hnbens Corpus.

The Dayton Empire, in commenting upon
the suppression Of the writ of habeas cor
pus in certain cases, says;
"Yet A. Lincoln, the usurper, recently
third-rate lawyer frem Springfield, ILL
nois, has, by proclamation, disposed of and
set aside this great bulwsrk of civil iber-
ty in America, sUith no statute to sanction
the usurpGtiOB, and with no respectable
plea to cover up the perjury
Mr.. Lincoln's Proclamation in effect
brands this charge as a lie, unequivOcal
and inexcussble. 1t distinctly cites the
act Of Congress of March Sd, 1863, where
by Congress empowered the President to
suspend the privilege Of habeas corpus
whenever in his judgment the public safe
ty may require. No more explicit or COM
pIese authority could be imagined. But
it touches the Vallsndigham plotters
against their Government in 9 sore spot,
and they Writhe like wounded snakes.
