The Second Veto.

The Columbus correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial thus recites the
reception of the veto message by the
Ohio legislature
W sone.yeto message Of Presi-
9sat Johnson waF so generally expec-
ted tina no particular excitement was
occasion d byrits announcement. While
discussion was progressing upon some
local bal in the House, the senior MEM
Der from LicE1geounty, Mr.. Putnam,
rose TO ask the gentleman holding the
floor 10 give way u moment while be
made an announcement. The gentle
man appealed 10 went right on with
his argument, while the member from
Licking. Ais ruddy countenance all
aglOw with smiles, shouted. 1.-The veto
message has been received"
There was slight sensation in this
ASaint,s Rest" and an involuntary
raising of hands as if to applaud. but
no applause. On the other side no
man appeared 20 move muscle or no.
tico the matter, and the local bin was
considered and disposed of. Few, if
any, members of the Union party took
any satisfaction in the announcement
that the President had vetoed the Civil
Rights Bill. The great majority speak
of il as an abandonment by the Presi-
dent of the party that elected him, and
| bold atteppt to transfer to the cop
perheads and rebels the power intrus-
ted to lis hands for the protection of
the people. Little or no argument is
used bf shostAwho take this view. the
ease beng to them 50 palpably and
dearly one of treachery that, if they
read the veto message, il is matter OF
form, and without the slightest admis-
sion to any body that there can be any
real valid excuse, not 10 say reason for
this veto.
OF course, it is not TO be expected
that, in this frame of mind. an impair
tial view of the contest or the situation
will be taken. A few. a very few, who
belong to the party represented by the
majority in this Legislature, have salts
lied themselves that the Presidents
arguments justified his position; but. TO
the great majority, the expression Of
such an opinion would be ground of
suspicion as TO ones sanity or political
honesty. 1t is difficult to see how. in
the future, the great majority of Union
men in this Legislature can regard
themselves and President johnson as
belonging to the same political organi-
zation, or as having any common OBJ
jects Of political action. On the other
hand, it is noticeable that, while the
Democracy rejoice, they show no in
clination to adopt" the President
They indorse his vetO-applaud it
welcome it-but care nothing for him.

CINCINNATI BETHEL.

AT the close of my last letter 1
spoke of this. In 1889, a desire to
reach with christian influence and
instruction, the large class of popu4
latfon that live near to, and upon our
river, gave rise to this institution.
A b6atmen's chapel was inaugurated,,
in which sabbath school and preach
ing became permanent
From this small beginning arose
our present Bethel Union. Members
of all denominations united heartily
in this good work, until now--every
Sunday an average of 1900 children
meet in this great ragged school of
our CITY. Besides meeting the moral
wants of their charge, they regularly
distribute TO them various articles of
clothing as the reward for faithful
attendance, upon the sabbath school.
So near TO the hearts of our wealthy
citizens has this cause come, that it
has heen found an easy task to raise
tho means for its support, and they
have nst been satisfied with this.
Over twenty thousand dollars, in q
short time has been subscribed to
erect building for its use. In this,
besides the schsol-loom, are to he
number of dormitories, in which the
homeless and houseless, who now
sleep in market houses or store
boxes, will find cheap and cleanly
beddings.
Reading and coffee rooms, viii
add their charms to this monum ent
of christian heneyolence. A year
ago, the Bethel society, was incarpo-
rated, and last Sunday Was its first
anniversary as such corporation.
And let me commend an hour or
two at the Bethel to your readers, as
a most delightful occupation for
Sunday afternoon in Cincinnati.
NEW OPERA HOUSE.
1t has been announced during the
past week, that the Enquirer CON-
pany intend to erect a new building
for this purpose, on what is now the
site of the Wesleyan Female Insti-
tute, that Company having bought
that ground together with large lot
adjoining it. How soon it will be
completed, we know not, The fact
that the Enquirer printing office will
he contained in the building would
indicate a speedy commencement.
MILK
The Commercial of this morning
has long article on this commodity.
We now pay ten cents quart, and
that too for milk, mixed freely with
water. How much of it is from still
fed cows we do not ask.
EAsTER DAT.
1t has been a perfectly beautiful
spring day. The streets are filled
with promenaders gaily dressed in
new spring styles, every body looks
happy, as though we had had no wars,
fires, transforms or winds, to ruffle
our peaceful bosoms. Lent is over
and once more will commence the
round of gayeties that it partially
suspended CRASSUS.

From Cincinnati
Correspondence of the JOurnal.l
CNc,xr.rr anr;l11 1oee

I
Those of your readers. who have
of late come by river to Cincinnati,
must haye noticed as they approach
ed it, the lofty towers and graceful
curves of the suspension bridge, be-
tween our City and Covington, now
rapidly approaching completion. A
few nights ago, with number of
friends 1 listened to highly inter
esting conversational lecture, on
bridges in general and this in par
ticular, by Mr.. J, A. Roebling. the
constructor OF this and several other
famous suspension bridges, includ-
ing the one over the Niagara FLYER.
From this lecture / gathered some
facts that may prove Interesting.
Tho sustaining powero OF the bridge.
is calcalated to he equal to l6. 500
tons. The main portion of this will
be derived from two immense cables.
These pass from anchors deeply i'm
bedded on the respective shores OF
the river, over the two tower. max
ing span of 1057, feet, the longest
that has yet been constructed, or
planned. Theremainder comes from
number of stays that pass at vari-
GUS angles from the SUBMITS of the
towers down 10 the floor ofthe bridge.
The two cables spoken Of, are twelve
and quarter inches in diameter and
consist OF seven smaller cables
Each of the latter contains 742 wires.
SO that in the entire cable there are
5l94. Each wire before use is tor
oughly oiled and painted to prevent
rust 1t viii be remembered that the
Wheeling bridge was blown, down.
A recurrence of this disaster here
will be prevented by the brin ging
nearer together of these two cables
as they approach the center of the
bridge. So that each one of them
will prevent q lateral as well as down
ward movement. For want of such
prevention the Wheeling bridge was
unable to resist the hurricane that
assailed it at its weakest point. The
floor of the bridge will be fifty feet
wide, seven feet on each side for foot
passengers and the remaining thirty
six for carriages, etc. Tracks will
be laid for railroad ears, but Loco
motives are not TO use it. The es.
timated cost of the structure is one
and half millions of dollars, snd it
is to be ready for use next fall
When so completed it will be one of
the wonders of the world, il being in
every respect the largest and longest
suspension bridge, as before said,
yet made. A curious fact connected
with the bridge is that in conse-
quence of the usual effect of changes
of temperature upon all this mass of
iron, the main cable will undergo
change of two feet in length during
the course of tho year, for which
contraction and expansion due al
lowsnce must be made in the plans.
As stood upon the present tempo
rary floor for the bridge the other
day, first fully realized what stu
pendOus work it was, and what q tri-
unph of high mechanical art its sue
cessful completion would be. Let
me urge it upon your readers, not to
suffer visit 10 Cincinnati to pass
by, without look at its wonderful
bridge.
