Everybody who has watched the proceed
iugs of the Legislature, knows that the SEN
ate disposed of the Ashland contested elec-
tion case with indecent haste, when Mr..
KENNY was voted out of his seat; and that
the House proceeded with still more indie
cent haste in the case of Mr.. LARwILL, as
well as in that of Mr.. MAFFETr. Availing
themselves of their constitutional right,
d, the Democratic memb rs If the House pro-
tested against the action of that body in the
Ashland case, on account of the indecent
haste with which it was disposed of, as well
as for other reasons; and had their PROTEST
entered upon the journal.
This PROTEST contains truths the record
of which the majority is unwilling to per-
petuate. So Mr.. STANTON, of Hamilton,
who has done that kind of work before, was
put forward, on Thursday p. NJ, to offer a
preamble and resolution, directing the
Clerk to expunge the PROTEST! Thereupon,
discussion was had, which occupied the
whole afternoon. The Democratic MEM
Ners did themselves great credit in this de-
,ate, driving the Republican members COM
pletely to the wall Messrs. DREsEI, MAYO,
BRATToN, OLDs, and Uni, spoke most ably
and effectively for the CONSTITUTION and
the RIGHT; and Messrs. DELANo, ALLISON,
aud STANTON, spoke for the majority, in
favor of disregarding and trampling upon
constitutional right belonging to the mi
nority.
The 10th Section of the I'd Article of the
Constitution of Ohio reads as follows:
Any member of either House shall have
the right to protest against any act or reso-
luton thereof; and such protest, and the
reasons therefor, shall, without alteration,
commitment or delay, be entered upon the
journal.
We are unable to see how any member
who swore to support the Constitution, can
vote to expunge PROTEST. We shall see
what will be done.

LegisIatiye summary.

In THE SENATE, on Thursday, January
18th, new bills were introduced as follows:
Authorizing the election of an additional
Common Pleas Judge In the first sub-divi-
sion of the fourth judicial district, con-
sisting of Lucas, Ottawa, Huron and San
dusky counties; To amend the road law so
that persons who have resided thirty days
in the State, instead of three months, shall
be liable to perform two days work, and al
so to make all classes of property liable fOI
the nOn-payment of road tax; To require
dealers in second hand furniture and OLE
metals to keep record of their transac-
tiOns; and several bills to amend the code.
The resolution to print 10000 copies OF
the Agricultural Report was adopted; anC
the bill allowing Prosecuting Attorneys ten
per cent. of the forfeited recOgniZances a.
other debts due the county which they may
collect, was passed. In the afternoon moth
ing was done.
IN THE HOUSE, new bills were introduced
as follows: BY Mr.. Putnam, two bills to
extend the term of County Auditors to Sep
tember (instead of expiring in March), in
order that his term may terminate at time
when the years business of the Office Is
closed up; A bill, by Mr.. Beer, authorizing
County Auditors to plat and record frac-
tiOns of land in cases where that duty has
been neglected by the district assessor, and
where the same become necessary for the
proper transfer of the title to real estate;
A bill, by Mr.. Brinkerhoff, to enactthe New
York State Registry law for Ohio, requiring
a register to be kept of all voters in each
ward, township and precinct.
The committee on Elections reported adj
versely to the claim of Peyton Hoard
(Dem.), for the seat of Mr.. Messenger, of
Marion, ON the ground of illegality in the
election. The Democrats moved to print
the report, but this was refused. and the
resolution excluding Mr.. Hoard and declar-
ing Mr.. Messenger entitled to the seat, was
adopted.
The resolution appointing joint COM
mittee to examine and report on the ac-
counts of Ex-GOv. Tod, in connection with
the expenditure of his military contingent
fund; the resolution to pay the salaries of
the Governor and members of the Assembly
in gold; were indefinitely postponed.
Mr.. Stanton, of Hamilton, introduced
long preamble and resolution, directing the
clerk to expunge from the House Journal
the PROTEST of the Democratic members
against the action of the House in the Ash
land contested election case, expelling Mr..
Larwill. Mr.. Dresel gave notice to discuss,
but the rule was suspended and it was de-
cided to consider the subject now. This
proposition was discussed during the after
noon, and in the debate the Democratic
members not only evinced their ability to
cope with the majority upon question
where the Constitution was clearly on their
side, but worsted the Abolitionists to that
degree that they were glad to postpone the
subject by adjourning.

attending DIR. JOnes's treatment of eye and ear dis

with which he operates for diseases Of the eye The

Of the ear. We give it in full because Capt. Evans

from him will be read with interest. Here is what
he says:

much was to stake for me-. In less than half hour
