Raeceon Improvement.

The bill in the Ohio Legislature, ap-
propriating $4,000 for cleaning and
widening Raccoon river, came up in the
House of Representatives on Thursday
last, and was defeated by large vote.
As this is an important matter to most
of our readers, we copy the proceedings
relating to this bill:
On motion of Mr.. SWAIN the House
took up the special order, being H. B..
No. 169, to make an appropriation for
widening and cleaning out the channel
of Raccoon River.
Mr.. SWAIN advocated the passage of
the bill in speech of some length
He alluded to the vast mineral wealth
of that region through which the stream
runs; and thought it should be opened,
that this hidden wealth might find a
market. He believes the State would
regain all the appropriation asked for
by the increased value of the property,
and the additional increase of revenue
in the shape of taxes arising on that in
crease of valuation.
Mr.. WOLF could not support the
bill.
Mr.. WELSH advocated the bill; and
denied that any company were seeking
to monopolize the advantages of the ap-
preparation. He contended that that
part of the State had always paid its
share of taxation for internal improve
ments; and ought now to be respectful
ly heard in this request for aid, and
more especially, since that section had
never had an appropriation for any such
purpose.
Mr.. GAsToN moved to recommit the
bill with instructions to amend so as to
require the amount subscribed to be
paid in and expended on the improve
ment, and that a competent engineer
shall first certify that $4,000 will be
Gallipolis journal. [volume] (Gallipolis, Ohio) 1837-1919, 1868-04-02

sufficient to complete the same in good
manner, before the State shall pay the
sum appropriated.
Mr.. CRIsT offered a substitute for
section 2, as follows: The Auditor of
State shall issue his warrant on the
Treasurer of State for the sum of FIVE
thousand dollars payable to the treasur-
er OF the Raccoon river navigation COM
pany, upon the certificate of the Presi-
dent and Engineer of said company,
certifying that fifty thousand dollars of
the capital stock has been subscribed,
and that one-fifth of the said improve
ment has been completed, and for like
sums as each one-ffth of the work is
completed.
The House agreed to recommit.-
The bill was referred to Mr.. Crist as
select committee of one.
Mr.. CRIsT reported the bill back
amended as instructed.
Mr.. HUGHES, of Butler, opposed the
bill.
Mr.. WARREN said that Logan county
{ (which he had the honor to represent)
had no canal within it. That the county.
had never derived any benefit from the
canals. But on the contrary, it had
been greatly injured by the construc-
ton OF reservoir, covering with water
section of land large enough to make
small township. All done by the
State, for the benefit of other counties.
And this being the case, he thought it
would be more proper to make an ap-
preparation to clear Miami river, below
the Lewistown Reservoir, than to clear
Raccoon river.
Mr.. THOMPSON, of Columbiana, was
opposed to the bill.
+, Mr.. BALL favored the passage of the
bill.
Mr.. LEwToN could not consent to vote
for the bill.
Mr.. STEWART opposed the bill.
A call of the House was had, and 81
members found present.
On motion of Mr. HUGHES, of High
land, all further proceedings under the
call were dispensed with.
The yeas and nays were called on the
passage of the bill, and resulted-yeas
80, nays 81. So the bill was lost.

StraWs.
The Washington correspondent of
the Ohio State journal says:

The Washington correspondent of
the Ohio State journal says:
Gen. Gordon Granger, the officer
who violated the Articles of War and
disgraced his uniform when he announc-
ed his readiness to disperse Congress
at the point of the bayonet in 1866,
has been in Washington, on no duty at
all for weeks. 1t is given out today
that he will be ordered by the Presi-
dent to take command of the Depart
ment of Washington, relieving Gen.
Ewing, who has proven that he can't
be used against the law, even by the
ommander-in-ch of the army and
navy. The statement gains ground
that Gen Hancock will be ordered to
the command of the new Department
