Ohio, on Saturday last, "to sustain the Presi-

The opinions Of the Appellate Court have been pub.

First: That the penal act of 1857 has no application
TO our city railroads
Second. That the fare which the Companies are en-:
titled to charge Is that agreed upon between them and
the City Corporstyn5 cents; and that they are not

Third. That while the Companies have the right

The present Congress bids fair TO secure for
itself the name Of the great jobbing Congress
Of the nineteenth century. II has thus lar been
without parallel In our history and is daily
growing worse instead of better. Some Of the
jobs have been vetoed and disposed OF, but
there are plenty more that will be pushed
through at all hazards. The session CON-
menced with o gigantic scheme 10 expend the
public funds under the plea Of protecting the
negro, but, as events have since shown, to en-
slave the blacks and enricha few New England
parsons and sanctimonious Frcedmen's agents
II this scheme had been successful, City millions
Of dollars ut least would have been absorbed,
oil Of which would have been taken out OF the
pockets Of the taxpayers. II failed, however,
through the veto Of the President, but In its
place Congress has adopted another measure
extending the Freedmon's Bureau for two
years, and II d now proposed 10 appropriate
from seven TO twelve millions 10 cover the ex-
pense OF its administration. There Il another
scheme to create Department Of Education
for the blacks, and still another 10 apply solely
TO the negroes In tho District Of Columbia.
These would absorb several millions more.
This much the present Congress has proposed
to expend upon the blacks Of mo South and
the agents controlling them. Nothing short OF
sevcnty-nve millions would be absorbed In
these projects, should they become laws
The foregoing Is only ono branch Of the
jobs already broachcd or acted upon. II only
inclndes what has been proposed for tho negro
and the New England parsons We presume
that IL the records Of Congress were carefully
examined other jobs Of . similar nature
would be found covered up where least ex-
pected There are other jobs fully equal In
importance. and, II anything, moro expensive
TO the public. There Is the Jay Cooke project
for consolidating the debt, introduced by Sena-
tor Sherman, which provided for the outlay OF
forty millions In the shape OF commissions 10
Jay Cooke and the national banks. Then there
is the Montana gold and silver mining Job,
which proposed 10 give 10 few specu-

Congress has already and is still attempting to
