Dead Finalities.
From the Cincinnati Gazette.

Mr. Spalding seems to argue that the
constitutional amendment was made the
issue in the Ohio elections, and therefore
it becomes finally to govern the Union
Representatives,. This places the Union
party in a splendid position. If the
Southern States reject the amendment
which most of them have-the Union
party is at dead lock, according to this
idea, and can do nothing but subside in
to Iohnsonism. ~ -----'
We don't think the people Of Ohio had
any such idea They concluded to ac-
cept the congressional conditions as the
best that congress could do under the
circumstances But the essential condit-
ion of that settlement was that the rebel
States should accept it. Their refusal
disposes of it, and leaves us not only
free to begin anew, but imposes on us
the duty of taking an effective course
And in this respect they must be treated
as a whole for when we prescribe con-
ditions of peace, we do not allow those
who reject them to come into their ben
efits because others have accepted them.
Nor can we take in part, on profession of
submission, and allow them to vote i'll the
rest who are defiant.

COMMERCIAL REPoRTs.--In reading the COM
mercial reports one would suppose that the
past had been very disastrous year-that
money was scarce, and our merchants on the
eve of bankruptcy. Now the factis, that, with
a single exception, the business of 1866 was
the largest ever done in our country. 1t is true
that some of our manufacturers and importers
have overtraded, and have been obliged to "
load at a great sacrifice. This accounts for
such a concern as !. P. Sherwood, of Cleve-
land, doing such an immense retail trade. He
has been able to take advantage Of the market,
and is, of course, retailing goods much below
their value. Sherwood is now making salesof

REFORM SCHOOL

NV confidedce in the success of such
an experiment is not based upon the re-
suits of foreign systems alone. Our State
has tried such a system with convicts
under the age of sixteen, and with them
it is no longer an experiment, but,a deci-
ded and demonstrated success. TIE
State Reform Farm was organized elev-
en- years ago upon the family system"
adopted in some Reformatories for youth
in Continental Europe, and was the first
attempt to introduce the plan into this
country. A large proportion of the
yonth sent there have been convicted of
pcnitentiary crimes, some of the gravest
character. The great aim of the Commits
sioner in charge, and of the Elder Broth
erS, las the officers and teachers are call
ed,) have been to revive in these boys a
respect for the right and love for truth
and virtue All the discipline and instruc-
ton has been directed to this end.
While the fact of their deserving pun
ishment has not been ignored, they have
been made to feel that their crimes have
made the discipline ofthe school a necessi-
ty to them for their own good, and a ne
cessity for the community's protection
Records have been kept Of the youth dis
charged and their history traced as far
as it has been possible to do so, and the
results have been such as to justify the
assertion that hundreds of boys have
been made useful and honest members of
society. who would otherwise have filled
the prisons of the land and belonged to
the class of professional criminals.
The success of this system in our own
State has caused its adoption in several
OF the other States of the Union, and may
be said to have changed the treatment OF
youthful convicts of the country.
Holding this opinion as to the value
of this Institution, you will not wonder
at my urging that it should be fostered
and improved. The original family build
ings were of the rudest description. in
tended only for temporary use; they are
now needed for workshops or other
buildings used in the industrial pursuits
of the Farm, and should be replaced by
houses similar to those erected during
the past year, which were rigidly plain
and simple III construction, are well
adopted for the uses required. There
are both advantages and disadvantages
in this but my own opinion after visiting
the Schools that a greater variety of Ia.

GRAND SWEEP OF OFFICE HoLDERs.--
Mr. Sumner has proposed an amendm ent
to the bill transferring the appointment of
pension agents from the secretary of the
interior to the president and Senate,
which provides that all other agents or
officers appointed by the president or
heads of departments, whose compensa-
ton exceeds $1,000 per year, shall be ap-
pointed by the president and confirmed
by the Senate. This will place all the
officers of the country Of any value at all
under immediate control of the Senate
1t will be pretty heavy load for that
body to carry, but it is the most effective
plan yet devised for reducing the polit-
ical power of the president and his cabi-
net officers. In fact it reduces it to a
minimum. Mr. Sumner also proposes
that the term of Office of all such Off
GERS appointed since date yet to be
supplied (the date Of the presidents apos-
tacy,) shall expire at the end Of thirty
days from the passage oft!le act. If Mr.
Sumner carries his scheme through,
there will be clean sweep of the pres
ident's friends from Office. there will be
general shaking in loose shoes till the
matter is decided.

Congress proposes to inaugurate per-
petual session system by voting that the
next session shall commence on the 4th of
March next. 1t may be that the Radi-
calls purpose to put restraint upon the
President by keeping Congress in session
and by this means prevent him from dc
what he mi ght do if there was no Con-
gress sitting. But it strikes us that this
will be rather an expensive and unexam-
pied method of doing this sort OF thing.
If the President requires a Congress to
keep him under constant restraint, why
not go on ard complete the impeach-
ment? But the fact is, those fellows
who GO to Washington propose to make
their office pay them. A perpetual ses-
sion will pay them much the best in the
way of salaries, and afford them opportu-
mites of doubling up on the emoluments
in eeneral.-Disp0tch.

Ono LEGIsLATURE.-The second week
of the session of the Legislature. has
been week of conventions, which has
somewhat interfered with the routine Of
Legislation; but both houses are at work
with commendable industry now, with a
view to short session and an early ad-
journment. The Senate adjourned over
from Monday to "Wednesday, to afford
its members of the Democratic stripe an
opportunity to attend the annual gather
ing of their party. This is the usual
courtesy ofparties. The House adjourn
ed from Monday to Thursday, to afford
the. W ool Growers Convention on Tues
day, and the State Agricultural Conven-
tion on "Wednesday, an opportunity to
occupy their hall on those occasions.

The President at a Democratic Ban
Quet,

The Democratic banquet, in celebration
of the anniversary of the battle of New
Orleans, at the National hotel Washing
ton, was attended by about 100 persons,
including members, ex-members, d men,
bers-clect of Congress ex-Attorney Gen.
Bates, Montgomery Blair and F. 2. Blair
senior. The latter Blair presided. AT
o O'Clock President Johnson entered and
was received by cheers, waving of hand
kerchiefs and music. He was seated at
the right of F. 2. Blair After the reg
ular toasts Montgomery Blair toasted
the health of the President. Mr. John
son made no speech in response, but pro-
posed the following sentiment: IN state
of its own will has the right, under the
Constitution, to renounce its place in, or
to withdraw from the Union; nor has
the Congress of the United States consti-
tutional power to degrade the people OF
any State, by reducing them to the con-
dition of mere territorial dependencies up
on the federal head. One is the disrup-
ton and dissolution of the government
the other is consolidation and the exer-
else of despotic power. The advocates
of the latter. are like enemies of our
Union and our constitutional form of gov
OF nment.

The gloomy prospects of Nebraska and
Colorado were on Tuesday last bright
ened by Gov. Boutwell,, who offered an
amendment to so amend the bills as to re-
quire the Legislatures elected by those
territories as State Legislatures, to dec
lare, by law, that there shall be no abridge-
ment of suffrage on account of race or
color. and when this is done they shall
be declared States in thirty days from
that date. Mr.. Ashley concluded to ac-
cept it and the Nebraska bill, as amen
ded, was finally passed by a vote of lo3
to 555 and than the Colorado bill, by
about the same vote, not quite two-thirds;
but there is no doubt but that both bills
can be passed over the veto. The dele
cations from these embryo States have
accepted this amendment.
