Hog Killing.

We see that our merchants are beginning
to get in quite a number Of slaughtered hogs,

favorable for the farmers to kill and bring in
their pork, This is suggestive of spare ribs

in this line thankfully resolved and larger
ones in proportion.

There is a bill before the Oh

There is a bill before the Ohio
Legislature to provide for the re-
moval of public officers who are
habitual drunkards. 1t would
seem from the following remarks
ofthe Cincinnati Commercial that
recent Radical rule has rendered
such law highly desirable:
The measure is full of promise.
Should it become law, the inso-
Ience of office will no longer be ag-
eravated by the effects of red-eye
and dead-shot; the lives and lib
critics of the people will not be
.ruthlessly jeopardized by inebriate
.constables, and the many tempe
rance laws which, in clear, bold
print, adorn our statute-books, will
cease to be deadletter.

Thursday Morning. Feb. 20, 1866
The Fruit Ripens.

From our Northern exchanges
it would be very easy to make
columns Of extracts complaining
of the hard times, the scarcity Of
money and thesufering poor. AL
ready we have made a number of
extracts, showing the pressure is
telling on the money kings, the
manufacturers in the North. This
morning we continue the extracts.
1t is not permitted us in Christian
charity to rejoice at the misfor-
tunes, even of those who have most
wronged us, but it is allowed us to
hope that their sutferings may
bring about repentance and reform.
While re cannot rejoice at tie mis-
fortunes Of down East,we certainly
do rot pity her. She has fairly
earned them and may be more !:
"The Giant locomotive works In
Patterson, New Jersey, are closed
for want of work. The wages of
the men, however, will be paid,
less twenty-five per cent, while
the works are idle"
A recent meeting of nanufactu-
rers at Worcester, having resolved
that they "still have confidence
In the wisdom and patriotism of
Congress-" the New York Express
comments thus:
Oppressive taxes, stagnation in
trade, industrial paralysis, finan-
cial panics, and commercial ruin,
are the progeny of the civil war,
which the supporters of this rnmp
Congress, and especially the New
England supporters of it helped to
work up. The conflict of arms is
now over for the time being, but the
curse is upon us, and can now no
more be shaken off than Nessus
could take bis shirt of, as long as
the civil war party is in power.
Even while these New England
manufacturers were lauding their
wisdom and patriotism that
Congress is doing all that it can
by its revolutionary and unconstl-
tutional legislation. to excite an
other civil war, and SO to increase
and aggravate the cause.
