Arrest of the Ohio Treasurer Of
State.
Especial to the Cincinnati Gasette.l

Especial 10 the Cincinnati Gazette.
COLUMBUS, September IL.
The air here at the capital has been fever
ish with excitement since the publication of
the report of Examiners Of the Treasury. The
crisis was finally reached to-day, resulting in
the arrest Of the Treasurer OF State, and
the Office declared to be vacant by the Gov.
ernor.
On Saturday last, the Governor, Auditor
and Comptroller, as required by law, met to
consider the report of the Examiners, and
after thou0ugh investigation and hearing Of
the Treasurer in bis own defense, they unan-
mously confirmed the facts set forth in the
report Further proceedings were not had

ing for the Treasurer, and an attempt being
made to prevent the issuing of warrant. But
the Governor was firm as q rock, and nothing
could dissuade him from doing his whole duty
under the law.
Here follows copy ofthe warrant rectng the pro.
cesdngs ofthe Investigating Committee, the law
and its notions, and charging Mr.. Dorsey with
"bresches of trust and embezElement."
THE ARREsT-THE TREASURER REFUSES TO
GIVE UP THE KEYS.
Sheriff Dongan, accompanied by Governor
Anderson and Auditor Goldman, served the
Treasurer with warrant about three o'clock
in the afternoon. The ] reasurer Immediate
ly gave bond in the sum of six hundred thou
sand dollars to answer to the charges cons
tanned in the warrant He however, refused
to give up the keys to the office, or consider
the Treasury vacant. This was new source
Of embarrassment to the Governor, who had
now to consider the propriety of exercising
force to obtain possession Of the key and eject
the Treasurer.
Further time was had, and at six clock it
was agreed that the Treasurer should, in an
hour and half, give up apart Of the keys and
retain part, thus rendering it impossible for
either party to get into the safe.
THE VACANCY NOT FILLED.
In the mean time Governor Anderson has
issued notice to the public to the effect that
in consequence of the removal Of Hon. G.
V. Dorsey, in compliance with the provisions
OF law, from the office Of Treasury OF State,
the Treasury will remain closed until his sue
cessor has been appointed, and 10 ready to
assume charge Of his department tits dil.
hcult to find any person willing to assume
the responsibilities OF the Treasury. The po-
sition has been rendered to Hon j. Il. Swan,
DR.. Andrews President OF the Board of Comp.
troll, Hon. George NJ. Parsons, Hon, John
Andrews and other prominent citizens.

REPLY TO DoRsEY's DEFENSE
Hon. Peter 0din, on behalf Of himself and
the Secretary Of State, has prepared reply
to tbe card Of Dr. Dorsey, in which be exam
ines the line OF defense set up by the latter.
Mr., 0dlin shows that the Examiners we're
friends to the Treasurer, but nevertheless, in
the discharge Of their sworn duty, they were
compelled to state the facts as they found
them. The only ground the Treasurer had
for the charge Of mslignity was in the reiusal
Of the Examiners, during the examination, to
ALLOW the Treasurer to change the character
Of the assets as be requested, II they had
thus violated their oaths and the law as he
requested, they would have become RESPONSE
bic for the Treasury Nor could they consult
the Treasurer as to the report they shold make
10 the Governor, without also violating the
letter aud spirit Of the law That tho Treas
urer and his Clerk bad heretofore been allow
ed TO make up the reports,was not a sufficient
reason why the Special Examiner shonld now
follow q course 20 maniiestly improper The
facts set forth in the report, as sustained by
the testimony ofthe Treasurer, ore sufficient
justification of the Examiners, even without
the concurrence Of the Governor, Auditor and
Comptroller, which has since been given.

prominent and responsible offices in the great
Commonwealth which they have seen form

SATURDAY MORNING, JULYI.

THE ACCIDENT on THE IsLAND.-The
blowing down of the old tannery build
ing on Thursday night does not prove
to be so serious an affair as first report
ed, there being no one killed or fatally
wounded. AT the time, both stories
were filled with soldiers who Ind sought
shelter there from the storm. The
night was very dark, and at first it was
believed that IL considerable number of
those buried beneath the ruins had been
killed, and, all the circumstances con-
Sidered, il seems almost miraculous
that such was not the case. Upon
careful inquiry, we learn that while a
great mHny were bruised and scratched,
there was only one who was considered
as dangerously injured. David Justice,
a member of Battery L, being very Sc
yercly bruised, was sent over to the
hospital for treatment. His is the
worst case, but no doubts are enter
tanned of his recovery. All the rest OF
the injured men are members of the
14th regiment. The following list em-
braces all those who received any con-
siderable hurt: Hydcr Stonebraker,
Co. +, head and hand, slightly; Lemuel
Richards, Co. \, head, badly, but not
dangerous; Lemuel c. Snyder, Corp,
Go. 4, back, severely; Eugenius Bell
Co. l, severe confusion about the eye
VIM. \. Toothman, Co. IL, knee; John
L. Stephens, back, very badly hurt.
He is not u member of the regiment
but got on the train and accompanied
his brother, who is soldier belonging
to the 14th.
