Governors Proclamation.
't'' 't-@ THE STATE OF OHIo,l
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
Anril e IS65.


The God of Battles has blessed our armies,
and the glorious cause of human freedom.
Under His approving smiles the patriotic
and brave men in the field have achieved
unparalleled triumphs. The rebel Capital
has been conquered, and given back to the
Union, and the army that held 1t in rebel
lion has been broken and scattered. The
military power of the rebellion-the strong
est obstacle to peace-has received terri
BILE shock, and our gallant armies are pur-
suing it to final extinction.
For all this we owe praise and thanks-
giving to Almighty God, recognition Of the
services and sacrifices of our noble soldiers,
and rejoicing over the triumph of the right,
the crushing of the rebellion, and an early
return TO peace and prosperity in the land.
1t is, therefore, recommended that Friday
next the 14th day of April-being the an
.niyersary of the fall Of Fort Sumter-be
generally observed by the people of the
State, as day OF Thanksgiving to God, and
of general rejoicing; that religious assem-
blages aud obseryances mark the day, and
the evening be given to bonfires, illumiha-
'tfons and the -thundering of artillery, pub
lie assemblages and speeches, and such 9TH
er manifestations as may be suggested, to
appropriately mark the heroic deeds of our
armies, and the general joy Of our people
at the early restoration OF the Constitution
and good government.
Witness my hand at Columbus the day
and year above written.

- A The Wool Trade. o. -.

/ Inithe Eastern market during the past
week, sales have been very limited. VI the
falling and sales in New York, The Econo-
mist of Saturday remarks: The wool mar,
ket was never known to be in so unsettledi
and unsatisfactory condition. There are
holders of Ohio wool who will not accept
less tlianS21e others who are not inclined
to- accept the current rates; then, again,
there are those who are willing to meet the
market and sell at the figures now ruling.
In the present clouded condition of things
it is impossible to hazard an opinion with
safety. One mans judgment to-day Is as
good as another, and what course things
will shape for the future is q mystery
Still we are of the hopeful order, ana pc
lieve there is much behind black cloud

MIR. PoweIrs Picture in the senate

The question Of taking Mr.. WIN. H. Pow
ELLIS picture of PERRY's Victory on Lake
Erie, and paying him the price named in
his memorial ($l5,000) was discussed In the
Senate during the greater part of the ses-
sion Yesterday afternoon. The bill for the
purchase of the picture at the price named
was at length declared to be passed by
vote Of is yeas to 2nays. "A motion to
reconsider the vote was lost. The names
of the yeas and nays will be found in our
report of yesterdays proceedings IN the
Senate. The bill now goes to the House
for its concurrence. What will be its fate
in that body we do not pretend to know,
Though it was confidently asserted in the
Senate yesterday by the opponents Of the
bin. that it tcould never pass the House in
its present shape.
Among those who spoke in opposition to
paying Mr.. POWELL $4,000 for his picture,
were Messrs. EGGLEsToN and GUNCKEL.
The former gentleman was particularly
warm and caustic in his remarks. He con-
tended that, as the original contract was for
5000, the State was bound to pay no more.
If different painting from that originally
contracted tor, had been made, there was no
obligation to take it, or if the State did take
it, the General Assembly could only allow
the artist the contract price. They had no
power to 90 beyond the letter of the bond.
Still he tMr. EGeIEsToN) was willing to al
low for the reduction incur currency since
the contract was made, and pay Mr.. Pow
ELL $500 for his picture. Or he would
consent that he should be paid the $4,000
out Of The gold in the State Preasury.-J
Messrs. CONVERSE, LANG, WnLETT,
O'CoNNoR, STEVENSON, and others, urged
the propriety of paying Mr.. POWELL the
sum named in his memorial. 1t was ad-
mitted that the painting was different from
the one, originally contemplated by the
parties; but it was superior to that In de-
sign, in taste and artistic finish. The uni
xersai ltestimony Of artists and connoisseurs
was, without exception, in commendation
or 1.-The picture as work of art. As to the
price, while on exhibition at Washington,
it had been pronounced by amateurs worth
al. .the.least $4,000. Some had rated it at
sa0Vb0,aad evenls25,OO0 The State had |
been advised to purchase it by such men as
WIN. DENNIsoN, JoHN SHERMAN, S. S. Cox
and others of her eminent citizens ! ~
JyFhere were many other arguments sad-
duced in favor of taking the painting at |
the price named by the artist. Butwe have
not space 70 even glance at them. 1t was,
however, urged that as it was commemora-
tive OF the greatest naval victory. ever
achieved by the American navy-one of
which every American was justly proud
and as it would be an ornament correspond
ing to the magnifcence Of Ohio's Capitol in
which it would be placed, no. narrow
mindedness should prevent her citizens
from being permitted to call this great
pietdre their own, and viewing it twhen
they visited their own House in the Capital
City.

Election I'm Toledo-Heavy Demo
cratic Gains.

The Democratic candidates for Mayor
and Marshal of this City were elected by
large majorities on Monday last. Mayor
Dorr had LILY majority over the regularly
nominated Republican candidate, and Col.
Bond had $40 majority over E. 5. Hank, in
dependent Republican candidate. This is
an average gain of about 1000 since the
November election. The news from Rich-
mond was received in the forenoon, Demo-
cratic flags were unfurled, and the party
workers labored with zeal that nothing
but such tidings could have inspired, and
the result shows how effectually they la
bored. What city can show a better gain
than Toledo2 Old times are returning
freighted with old fashioned majorities.-

lTrThe rslection ON Monday.

The election for Members Of the Board OF
Education in the First, Third, Fifth, Sew
enthl and Ninth Wards Of the City OF Co.
lumbus, on Monday, excited much less in
terest than its Importance demanded. In
the midst of the reioicings over the crown-
ing victory of the war, many voters In
those Wards forgot all about the election,
and failed to go to the polls. Theresuis now
ever, is as gratifying as we had any reason
to hope. The Democrats elected the Mem
bers OF the Board in the Fifth, Seventh,
and, Ninth Wards; and the Republicans
elected their men in the First and Third
waros. This makes the new Board, politi-
cally. the same as the old Board-leaving it
In the hands Of the Democracy.
