SoHAScK, an aspiraht for the honor Of att
tempting to represent Ohio in the United

two geil6lemefi,p ,pon tie 9th Of December,
ls65-Mr. WADE in the, Senate and Mr.
ScHENcK in the House introduced JOINT
resolutions declaring against Cthe at
tempt to establish monarchy IN Mexico,
and ding upon the President to take such
"kteps concerning this grave matter as
wilP' defeat this enterprise on the part OF
France. 1t was this Oircumstance-this
willfnlnhd tatr0eious tagpering with the
lives and property of the people of Ohio
bY KfessFs WADE and ScHENcK-that i'm
PEELED Governor ANDERSON to, sound the
alarm and awaken the people to the great
peril these bad politicians were seeking to
entrap them into. The gigantic enter
prise" which these magnificent statesmen
~ would set on foot, according to Cover
nor ANDERSON, would require Ohio to fur
nish "more than her full share Of her best
blood 7and=treasure, and the Governor,
writing under the weight of his oath
ofl'fdeIitye to the people Of Ohio, de-
clares that "a more certain and patent
right, ,plap, of becoming ,rsoaqrchv our
sel6es could neither be devised nor inn
agined, than for us to go to War with
Europe, and the rest of mankind, in
behalf of the Rernl6licnIag Of lMsrtcos" End. !
that Z" in that case, treason 1oiH haze done lis
,oorst." The Governor insists that stheis-
sues are too great, the perils too awful and
imminent for either silence or Hypocrisy"
aud he therefore warns the Ohio Legisla-
ture not "to pass thecustomary resolutions
of advice and instruction to our Senators
and Representatives in Congress, in
favor Of this, measure" rbubyif they
viii persist in such criminal folly, he !
suggests, that it would be well for them to
"indicate some fresh and unstrained sinews |
of war"-"to determine what classes of
the peoples property can well bear heavier
taxation than they now endure"
There never was a grander or a more
complete showing up of pinchbeck states
manship, than this expose of Messrs. WADE
and SGHENCK's War scheme for the ostensi-
BILE Experimentation of Mexico, by Gov.
ANDERsoN. Their project carries tIt It's train
drafts, crushing taxation and despOtism. If it
is improper for the Legislature to adopt
Joint resolution inviting such condition
Of tltlng wherein consists the propriety Of
the Legislature electing man to the United
States Senate who favors It's inauguration ?
Gov, ANDERsoS has thrown a, terrible
broadside into the hulks Of Messrs. WADE
and ScHEEoK, riddling them completely.
and if the Legislature shall elect the latter
tOtheI United States Senate, they will be
SHINING against light and knowledge.
