The Mistake of the Legislature.
Ine Ohio Legislature have committed a
grave mistake, In not taking into their
and now almost Gaily he raps that body
over the knuckles. The members of the
Legislature should have taken warning in
time, when, early in the session, he demol-
ished the Honorable JACOB WOLF, of Ham
ilton. This was not designed by the Jour
nal so much punishment to that Honor
able gentleman, as an admonition to the
members of the Legislature that their
walk must be one of perpendicular pro-
| prfety, and that they must not, upon peril,
do nything to offend the editor, In doing
anything at variance with his conceptions
of right. Nevertheless. the members of
the Legislature have proceeded in their
business just as though there we're not in
the whole country such publication as
the Ohio State Journal or any
such man as its editor. We speak
particularly of the Democratic
portion of it. They have defended the
Democratic party and the creed of the par
ty from the vile aspersion of men who ar
monopoiyof good breeding, culture and
Intelligence. But their growing offense is,
that they haue legislated for the White Man.
To this end, they have enacted that colored
people shall not vote. To this end, they
have enacted that students shall vote where
5 they belong, and nowhere else. To this
end, they have enacted that the tickets vo.
ted shall be White and not parti-colored
as has been the custom of late, that cap
2 italists, manufacturers, and iron men coul(
be able to know and control the kind o
ticket their employees vote. To this end
they have refused, on the motion of Re
publican. to enact that the rate of interes
shall be increased. To this end, they hav
cut down the appropriations into some
thing like proper shape.
All this has exasperated the Journal, an
z 1t, has been unsparing in its denunciation
and attempted ridicule of the Legislature
be few days longer than the averag
length of sessions. If it shall be so, on
cause for it will be owing to the high
handed usurpation of the Radicals in Con
gress. Having seen them undertaking t
usurp the powers and office of the Presi
dent-having seen them brow-beat the Su
preme Court into practical acquies
cence of Congressional lusurpation,-it wai
and is, incumbent upon the Legislature G
Ohio to remain in session until the end G
the Impeachment trial is seen. Il will b
a blessing to the country if the end sha
be such as to make it needless fo
them to intervene in any manner
but representing, as they do, tn
. people and the sovereignty of Ohio, it
their duty to see that nothing is done b
the Revolutionists in Congress to jeopar
the sovereignty of our State or to out
rage the rights of our people. The pro
longation of the session, and the attendan
expense therefor, is not a matter of thei
seeking. 1t was forced upon them by th
fanatical, corrupt and perfdious Revolu
tionists in Congress, and upon them it wi
become wronged, deceived and plumber
ed people to visit their indignation. Pue
: rile attacks upon the Legislature are nc
going to divert the people, either, froI
thus rebuking those revolutionists.

ance at the turn things have taken. His
desire to have his speech bound up in the

all the others) is not to be heard in the au-
gust presence OF the Chief Justice and the

Lines to 8 Skeleton.


The author Of the following lines is unknown
although reward of fifty guineas was onerea
or his or her discovery. They were 1ouno :, on
j, skeleton in the Museum OF the Royal Col-
eye of Surgeons, Lincoln's Inn, London.
Behold this ruin! Twas skull,
Once of ethereal spirit tull;
Th;s narrow cell was life's retreat,
This spacewas thoughts mysterious seat.
What beauteous visions lied this spot!
What dreams of pleasure long forgot
Nor hope nor joy, nor love, nor tear,
Have left one trace ofrecord here. ~
Beneath this Wondering canopy
Once shone the bright and busy eye;
But start not at the dismal void;
If social love that eye employed
If with no laWless fire it cleaned,
But through the dew ofkindness beamed-
That eye shall be forever bright, i
When stars and sun are sunk ID night.
Within this hollow cavern hung
The ready, swift, and tuneful tongue.
IF falsehood's honey it dlsdained,
And whereit could not praise was chained;
If bold in virtues cause it spoke,
Yet gentle concord never broke,
This silent tongue shall plead for thee
When time unveils eternity.
Say, did those fingers delve the mine?
Or without euvied rubies shine?
To hew the rock or wear the gem
Can little now avail to them.
But if the page of truth they sought,
Or comfort to the mourner brought,
These hands a richer need shall claim
Than all that wait on wealth or fame.
Avails it whether bare or shod,
These feet the depths Of duty trod?
If from the halls of ease they fled
To seek afHiction's humble shed;
If grandeur's guilty bride they spurned,
and home to virtues cot returned,
These feet with angels wings shall vie,
And tread the palace of the sky.
