About Money.

Great SAKE has sung about how money
gOeSs
But how il cornes-who knows?
Why, every Western mothers son
Can tell you how the thing is done:
It comes by honest toll and trade,
BY welding sledge and driving spade,
And building ships, balloons, and drums
And that's the way the money comes.
How does it come? The way is plain:
By raising cotton, corn, and cane;
By guiding ships across the main;
BY selling groceries Sc low
That not rival dares to crow,
While customers, steady dow, sei
Come pouring in, and, as they go, %
They take a bargain to their homes
And that's the way the money comes.
How does it come? Why, as it goes:
By spinning, weaving, knitting hose;
BY stitching shirts and coats for Jews,
Erecting churches, renting pews, ai4
And manufacturing boots and shoes.
The g New York Grocery seems to choose
OF selling groceries Sc cheap that those
Who labor with head and arms and
Ef2Is thumbs s n aa4 e
May save their money as it comes.
How's money saved? Why, DON'T you
know: sffsts 81
BY visiting Main Street, ~,
Where Teas and Sugars, and Coffees too,
Are sold so cheap that all who go
May receive the benefit of the late decline
In all kinds of goods in the grocery line;
BY going where you'll not get shaved
And that's the way the moneys saved.

legislative.

The Ohio Legislature has passed areso-
lutiou to adjourn on every Friday to the
following Tuesday. The resolution was
opposed in the Senate by Brown, Senator
from the Trumbull DISTRICT, and Sadler
from the Sandusky District. Mr.. Brown
in giving his reason for opposing the prop
o%sition, is reported in the published pro-
ceedings as having remarked as follows:
He had watched the practice of the
legislature in this regard, and deprecated
the laxity of members in the waste of
four days out of every eighteen, on which
the members drew pay without rendering
any services. He hoped the legislature
from this time forward would diligently
discharge their duties, and hen the peo-
pie would be ready to allow them ample
compensation. But with this proposed
direliction from their duties, they would
be opposed 20 any increase of pay to mem
bers. If the resolution is adopted, there
will be no quorum at all on the Tuesdays
and Fridays, so that four entire working
days will be lost every time. He came
here untrammeled by any influences
Let us demonstrate that we are o infu-
enced by them. He hoped the resolution
would not pass.
The resolution was adopted by Is to l6.
The House had previously adopted it
This act suspends the Legislature out of
IL days, at a cost to the State of over
$500, per day. Not any thing is lone on
Fridays and Tuesdays, of the adjourn
ment weeks. It has been intimated that
the fact of members of the Legislature
having free passes over the railroads, is
the incentive to their frequent protracted
adjournments. We are informed that
Messrs. Brown and Sadler are the only
members who refused to accept passes.
rendered by the railroads. All the other
members travel free, and of course they
will travel more frequently under those
circumstances.
We believe Mr.. Brown and his friends
pressed his nomination before the Con-
vention on the ground that he was op-
posed to the monopolizing and presump-
tive spirit Of railroad corporations and
as he has been appointed Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Railroads, it will be
expected of him to expose the evils of
the system and suggest wholesome re-
forms.

Thanks TO the soldiers.

On Tuesday, the Goth, inst. Mr.. Kib
bee, Representative of this county, pre-
sented to the Legislature the following
resolutions which were adopted:
Resided BIZ the General Assembly of The
Stats Of Ohio, That we tender our grateful
thanks TO all officers and soldiers of this
State, for their patriotism and bravery so
calamity manifested during the late war,
in promptly rallying around and defend
ing the honor of our old flag of Stars and
Stripes, against the insulting taunts and
assault of defiant rebels, who, without
Just cause or -provocation, waged a suicid-
al war against our Goyernment-the
purest and best ever instituted by man.
PeSo1ed, That we cherish the memory
of our gallant sons who have fallen in de
fence of their country; may their acts OF
noble proves be perpetuated in all COM
ing time; may their widows and orphans
be the recipients of the loyal support aud
kindest regards of a loyal people.

A s.Veteran'' subscriber.

The Warren Chronicle thus mentions a
veteran" subscriber:
"Mr. Samuel King, of Rowland, renew-
ed his fftieth annual subscription to the
Chronicle, the past week"
Mr.. King is one of the pioneer anti-sla-
very men of the Reserve. in 1854, after the
fusion of the Wing and Free Soil parties,
a struggle occurred within the new organ
ization for the positions at the disposal of
the party. In the Congressional district
then comprising Ashtabula, Trumbull
and Mahoning counties, determined OPP
position was made, by Republicans of
Wing antecedents, to the denomination
OF Hon. Joshua R. Giddings. A heated
contest ensued, in which Samuel King
ANONYMOUSLY played an important part.
At the primary meeting in Rowland, Mr..
King was nominated as delegate to the
district convention. An attempt was
made to instruct him to vote against Gid
dings. but he refused to be instructed, de-
claring before the vote was taken that he
was for Giddings first, last and all the
time; that if they did not like his posi-
ton they should select another delegate.
An opposing candidate was brought out,
and the lines tightly drawn, but Samuel
King was chosen by a majority of one.
Upon the organization of the district con
vention, at johnson, Trumbull county,
it was found that the question was still an
open and an exciting one Finally a vote
was reached, and Joshua R. Giddings re-
ceived a majority of one. Samuel Kings
decided the contest.-CsveLaHd Leader.

News from Washington.
WASHINGTON, January Is, Il

duudIg 10, lCOO-
The question of admitting the Tennes-
see delegation has not been fully consid
cred. Protests from the South against
most all of the Southern members have
been filed.
An unusual number of applications for
pardon were received at the Attorney
Generals Office to-day. The papers are
placed on file simply, as the President is
granting no pardons to speak of now a
days.
The telegraphic statement that General
Custer is the officer charged with having
uttered reasonable sentiments in Texas
is not true. General Merritt is understood
to be the officer referred to.
A large number of reports from the
South show that negroes are commencing
the new year in a satisfactory
Gen. WAYNE writes from Alabama that a
general improvement continues to be
manifested. The demand for labor still
exceeds the supply, and the freedmen
show a marked preference for hiring with
Northern men, of whom there are about
FIVE thousand in the State. Those plant
ers who i'll treated the freedmen last year
find it almost impossible to secure labor
during this, and some have been compell-
ed to abandon their farms in conse-
quence.
The alleged attempt to a~ssassinate Sen
ator Wade is strippedSf its startling pro
p,rtions, as it appears that 1t was the
freak of an insane man, who claims that
he has been discharged from the Boston
Navy Yard. The same crazy fellow has
been lettering around Congress for several
days, and has been turned away several
times by the Doorkeeper of the House.
The DILL reported to the House on Mon
day, from the Committee of Ways and
Means, by its chairman, authorizing
the Secretary of the Treasury to
issue bonds for the purpose of funding
the floating debt of the United States, in
dicates the adoption of Secretary McCul-
loch's views by Congress, and the estab-
lishment of a policy of contraction such
as he advocates in his report.
The subject of equalizing the bounties,
giving the early recruites a sum equiva-
lent to that received by those who enlist
ed at a later day, is receiving the atten-
ton of the military Committee, to whom
have been referred petitions in aid of the
same. So far as we can learn, members
of Congress are disposed to acknowledge
the justice of this claim to a certain eX-
tent, but will not probably vote to give it
to those who received a bounty upon re-
enlistment, as that would require too vast
a sum in the present rather necessitOus
condition of the country.

Renew Your subscriptions.
The Chronicle ESTABLISHMENT.

We have recently added largely to the
mechanical department of our printing
Office, in the material of presses, type, &c
We think our readers will back us in the
assertion that the CHRONICLE is print
ed as neatly and clearly as any paper in
this part of the State, not even except
ing city papers. 1t is our wish to make
the old veteran newspaper of the Reserve
occupy a creditable position among con
temporary journals.
We have within a few weeks added a
large new cylinder power presto be
run by steam or hand, as may be prefer
red-at a cost of $4,000. The paper will
hereafter be printed in the best manner,
clear and distinct, and readable to our
Oldest subscribers.
We have also added a card and bill
head press, and made additions of the
handsomest and latest styles of type
We have now three power presses and
one hand press, and feel capable of be-
ing able to promptly meet the demands
the public may make on our jobbing de-
partment.
The business of the Office has very ma
terially increased the last year, and our
subscription list is now being augmented
with a rapidity as gratifying as it is un-
precedented in the history of the paper.
1t is and shall be the constant aim of the
publisher TO make the CHRONICLE a first
class HONE newspaper We are thankful
for the cooperation of our correspond
ents through the county, in this respect.
We wish every citizen of the county to
feel that the CHRONICLE is pre-eminently
his home paper, which he should aid in
maintaining.
1t is not necessary for US to 60 into an
explanation to our intelligent readers,
of the many reasons why we cannot COM
pete with city papers in the size of their
sheets or the quantity of reading they
are able to give. Suffice it to say that to
attempt to compete with them in the
features named would require an effort
at expansion Of the part of the local
press, that would result in a collapse from
over exertion. But We hope to make
the CHRONICLE interesting TO home read
ers, and depend on that class to support
the paper. For halfa century the CHRoN-
IcLE has iourished, still aourishes, and
we have no doubt it will continue to be
the herald of a noisy world " for long
years yet to come.

Attempt to ASSaSinate Senator
Wade!

The telegraph reports that on Wednes-
day evening of last week, a man called
at Senator Wade's residence, in Washing
ton, and obtaining an interview, stated
he was trying to obtain employment in the
o. S. Navy, and asked Nh. Wade to sign
a recommendation. The senator refused
on the ground that he was a stranger to
him. The visitor looked at the Senator
with a malicious, significant scowl, which
induced Mr.. Wade to believe that mis-
chief was intended, and to he prepared
for it, he stepped into an adjoining room
and armed himself with a loaded pistol,
then returned. The man then asked,
"Are you going to sign my paper?" The
Senator replied negatively, whereupon the
man arose, and drawing out a bowieknife
about a foot long, remarked, 81 suppose
you know that we are now alone in this
room? Mr.. Wade sprang to his feet, drew
his pistol and placed it within a few inch
es of the rufffan's head, telling him to
leave or he would shoot him. The fellow
moved towards the door, the Senator
following him until he departed

The New

General ]. D. Cox was inaugurated
Governor of the State of Ohio on Monday,
the sth inst, with appropriate formali-
ties due on such an occasion. The In
augural of the Governor is printed on the
first page of this weeks Chrcnicle, and
we bespeak for it a considerate reading
by all. 1t is not necessary for us to re-
capitulate its points, inasmuch as the
document is neither lengthy nor tedious,
and to be appreciated should be read in
full. The message is prepared with the
Governors usual faultless diction, cogen
CIV and clearness. 1t is in delightful con-
trast with the voluminous verbiage and
ponderous sentences that characterize
the first, and fortunately the last annual
of Gov. Anderson.

plan according to the report, embraced
the fact of the arrival there of the inten-

The authorities have instituted a search
of all the vessels in the harbor. No per-
son of a suspicious character has been
