The Ohio Republican Members in
Caucus.

The Ohio Republican members OF Con-
gress held caucus at Washington City on
Saturday night. They resolved to vote
against the reception of any member from
State lately in rebellion in the Organiza-
ton of the House, and alter it, until his ere
dentials shall have been referred to Com
mittee on Elections, and the whole matter
investigated and discussed thoroughly
This will open up an exciting debate, in
volving the discussion of the Rebellion from
its inception to its ending. How they will
act after such reference, investigation and
discussion, will depend on the action of the
Republican members from the New Eng
land States. They resolved to follow the
lead Of the New England States in the insig-
nificant matter of the election of Sergeant
alarms. 1t is, therefore, just to conclude
that they will hitch on to the tail of
the New England Republican MEM
bers and follow their lead for the bal
ance of the session in all things. Tho
practical effect of this will be, that the New
England Republican members will do the
legislation in Congress for Ohio. mas
much as this is likely to be the case, would
it not be well for the Ohio Legislature to
make arrangements with the New England
Republicans to do the legislation for the
State for a small consideration, and thus
save Ohio the trouble and expense of send
ing members to Congress? Cheerfully will
the New England Republicans enter into
such an arrangement. 1t is true that Ohio
has some interests that require looking af-
ter; butif the Republican members of New
England shall deem the interests of their
section need favortism at the expense Of
the agricultural interests of Ohio, the Re-
publican members from Ohio will not
have the hardihood to oppose the New
England members. '''

Death of Van Amburgh.

The great Van Amburgh, known every
where as the lion-tamer and the menagerie
owner, died id Philadelphia on Wednesday,
of congestion of the spleen. The Philddel-
phid Press speaks as follows OF his history
and adventures:
During his eventtul life he made many
narrow escapes in coming in contact for the
first time with wild animals. On one occa-
sion a tiger made most savage attack upon
him, tearing him so badly that portion OF
his bowels protruded. He tanned the ami
NAL finally, and made him great pet
The probability is that Mr.. Van Amburgh
received more scars than any other indi-
vidual, while pursuing the duties of the
profession, to show to the world the triumph
of man over the most terocious beasts of the
forest or jungle. -
Some years ago, while performing in
Paris, large number of the nobility were
in. attendance. Eminent literary gentle
men were present, and among them Eugene
Sue, the author of "The Wandering jew"
This distinguished writer had long and
interesting Interview with the great lion
tanner on the method of subduing wild ami
mails. The information thus received was
made the subject of an interesting sketch
in the Wandering Jew, although at the
time the reader could not have possibly
surmised the hero of the story. Mr.. Van
Amburg appeared on Chestnut street day
or two since, apparently as well as he ever
was. He did not complain of sickness un-
til within a short time of his death.

Cost Of Living Double what At was
I'm lS0OI hA

Some editor says, shudderingly, that the
price of living Is double what it was IN
1860, and 75 per cent. greater than In 1865
and thinks there is no necessity for it.
Does he think it was possible to prosecute
such gigantic War as was prosecuted
from 1861 to 1865, and yet not affect the
price of livingP Does he think 1t possible
to invest so large a portion OF capital in
Government securities, as has been invested
in them since 1863, and exempt them from
taxation, aud yet not affect the cost OF liv-
ing? To run this Government as It has
been run since 1861, with its big War, and
improvidence, waste and stealing In every
Department, costs money; and this money
must come off of the people, through tax
on importatioDs, in internal revenue, and
municipal, county and State taxation. And
now that the War is over-now that the
Southern people give the most undoubted
evidence of their determination to abide in
the Union-it is proposed, and this propo-
sition is the outgrowth of the anxiety OF
the Republican politicians to maintain
themselves in power, to continue a costly
military establishment in the South; under
the pretense that the Southern people are
yiciously disposed toward the Government
. Until the expenditures of the Govern
ment are reduced greatly-until the public
debt is put in course of liquidation so as to
render the interest thereon less than 1t Is
now--until the duty on importations is
diminished-until the capital invested in
Government securities is required to bear
its proportionate share of the expenses of
the Governmental is folly to declaim
against the high price of living. The great
difference in the cost of living between
now and 1850, is what we are required to
pay for the Stdtesmdnship of the Republican
politicians in putting the preservation of
the Republican party, and as they are now
putting it, paramount to the preservation
of the Union. Homes for the homeless,
and lands for the landless," with high
wages and diminished cost of living for
the laborer, were the promises made to the
people by the Republican politicians, ifthey
should succeed to the control of the Federal
Government. How are these promises be-
ing fulfilled?
Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1865-12-04

In conversation with our Republican
friends, we have learned the true secret Of
the opposition of that PARTY to the restora-
tion of the Union. 1t is this, viz: they are
afraid the South, in the Union, will not vote
right; they are afraid they will vote against
high taxation; they are afraid they will be
I'M favor of subjecting the bonds of the
Northern moneyed aristocracy to taxation.
These, we learn, are the real reasons. They
admit they care nothing for the Niger, which
term we use as his proper appellation, the
word meaning black; but they use him as
cover to their real purpose, which simply
is. keep the South out OF the Union, because she
t0On't UOte TO stdt us IN the Union. Ls Il <
But the Republicans ought to consider
that this is a somewhat hazardous policy.
1t is true, the South, like Ireland and Po-
land, is now helpless. The iron heel of mill
itary despotism is upon her, and, apparent
ly, we can do with her as we please. But
affairs sometimes take strange turns. We
know, of course, that the South, after having
been denied her constitutional rights in the
Union for years, and having been thus pro-
voked to try to get out of it, has no very
particular desire tOreturn to it; and if the
Republicans still determine to pursue her,
as they now do, simply in qualification OF
their .lohg-cherished partisan hate, they
may bOlu ner lu SsiJudIlou' anu "lUuSoh
ments and feelings, that, should we have
war with Mexico, may induce her logon
cldde, and rightly in the judgment Of the
world, that as she is not wanted In the Bn-
ion, and can not receive anything likeher
rights in 1t, she will avail herself oftthe
opportunity to place herself permanently
out of it,. To avoid anything like this,
Morton & Co. want to admit her back but,
still, fearing she may not vote right, they
want,.by changing the Constitution as to
the apportionment, of Representatives, to
reduce her votes toso small a number that
they will notamount to anything of conse-
quence against The Republicans. The point
in the whole matter with them all is, pre-
uent the South from hdothg voteS till she 't0iU
agree to v0te the Republican ticket, or else take
atodyher right 10 hdUe ooteS enough 10 enddRger

FrankIIn DemOcratic Ausocia atiOn.


This Association holds regular meetings,
for the Interchange of views and opinions
on current political topics and events, on
Tuesday evening of each week, at its rooms
on South High street, few doors east of
the southeast corner of High and Rich
streets. These meetings all Democrats are
invited to attend and participate in the dis
cussions. 4ur -arty,u.nt sat,s lg nd
The meeting tomorrow evening is likely
TO prove an interesting one. Congress con-
venes to-day, and the Presidents message,
should it arrive in time, will doubtless af-
fordinteresting matter for discussion at the
meeting. 1t is to be hoped there will be a
good attendance.
We would here remark that the Associa-
tion keeps open at the same place, on each
evening, a fine reading room, in which Wis
itors will find many of the Democratic pa
pers of our own State, and the leading ones
published elsewhere. This room is open
every evening in the week, Sunday even
ings excepted, and is free to all Democrats

Hon. ThaddeuoStevens.

The NeD York Euentng Post, be it remem-
bered, is staunch Republican journal; but
of the qualifications of Mr.. STEVENS for
the Craftsmanship of the committee on
Ways and Means, it has the emost contempt
ible opinion. 1t is free to say this of him:
That Mr. Thaddeus Stevens is a most un-
fit man to bold any place on that committee,
and most of all to be its chairman, is what
few men of Judgment in the country, ex-
cept, perhaps, some fanatical protectiOnists,
will deny. Obstinate, hot-headed, and so
ignorant of the laws of trade that he act
ually imagined he could control the price
of gold by a resolution of Congress, his re-
appointment TO this place would be grave
misfortune to the country. And it is as
well for the dominant party in Congress
to understand that not Mr.. ColfaX, but those
who nominate and elect him Speaker, will
bebeld responsible by the country if he
should make such a mischievous appoint
ment. Our exigencies demand that we
shall have at the head of the House COM
mittee of Ways and Means statesman of
enlarged views, of sound principles, capa-
BILE of taking in all the interests OF the
country, and not a narrow bigOt whose
blunders in the last Congress rendered our
whole nation sort OF laughing stock to
the world,

from Toledo, and twenty-five from Cincin'

That institution will be likely to fill up rap

these Courts have ever been so prolific ol
criminal cases as those that have been held

to 90 out fthe Union and set up for them
selves; and because the Federal Govern
ment undertook to prevent this by force
did not the Southern States undertake to
fight out of the Union?j 1t will not do to
say that if they should unfortunately have
succeeded in establishing their Southern
Confederacy, that the Union would have
been destroyed, for the Republican politi-
clans propose to conduct this Government
Just as though the Southern States were
out of the Union-as though the Southern
Confederacy had been established. At the
same time they propose, to do this, they
claim that the Union has not been destroy
ed. If the successful withdrawal of the
Southern States from the Union would
have destroyed the Union, does it not ne
cessarily follow that the rejection by Con-
gress of the Southern Senators and Repre-
sentatives, and establishing and maintain
ing provisional Governments in the South
ern States, is likewise destruction of the
Union? Answer us that, Mr.. Blade. el-

what They Fear.

Under no circumstances, and under nc
condition of affairs, do the Republican pol
iticians want the White people of the South
to have a voice in the Administration OF
Government. They do not fear that ifsuch
a voice is allowed them, that anything det-
rimental to the Union will be done; but
they fear that power will depart from the
Republican party. And to prevent this,
they will trample the Constitution, right
and Justice under foot. ..rr,
