Repeal of the Tax on Manu-
faCtufes.

The House last week passed Mr..
Schenck's bill making a sweeping re-
peal of the national taxes on all articles
of manufacture, except tobacco, coal oil,
liquors and gas The bill is now be-
fore the Senate, where it will undoubt-
edly pass, and becomesa "a law. The tax
which will be repealed by this bill
amounts to from sixty TO eighty millions
of dollars per year. 1t is now expected
that the current expenses of the Govern
ment will be cut down correspondingly.
The whisky tax alone ought to be made
to yield more than enough to cover the
loss to the revenue incurred by repeal
ing the tax on manufactures. The tax on
whisky is two dollars gallon, and at
least eighty millions of gallons are man.
ufactured annually in the United States,
but the tax collected ou it has been but
from twenty-five to thirty millions Of
dollars when it should have been one
one hundred and sixty millions. The
repeal of the tax on manufactures leaves
almost nothing that is at all burden
some to industry. Our farmers, me-
chanics and laborers will be almost en-
tirely freed from all burdens of taxation
by the repeal of the tax above alluded

The Railroad war.

Commodore Vanderbilt and Daniel
Drew, of New York, are the two great
railroad kings Of this country. Van
derbilt controls the Harlem, Hudson
River and n. Y. Central Roads and the
Lake Shore Road from Buffalo to To-
ledo. Drew controls the Erie, Michi-
gan Southern, aud Atlantic & Great
Western Roads. Vanderbilt and his
friends also own about half Of the Erie,
and have lately been making great ef-
forts to oust Drew and get controlling
interest. The Atlantic & Great Western
aims to make broad guage road from
Akron, Ohio, to Toledo, to connect with
the Michigan Southern and thus have
an unbroken line to Chicago and as
much further West as possible. Van
derbilt fights this project, and just now
seems to have the inside track. 1t
looks as though be would be successful
in his efforts to get possession of the
Erie road.

Akron and Toledo is to run via. FIRE.

But if It be the intention to switch it of

send it aroundabout via. Sandusky,
candor compels us to make the obser-
vation that we will swing our hat for
Vanderbilt. This little remark will
probably have controlling influence
in settling the matterl

Connecticut Election.

Connecticut is the next great battle
field. Her election occurs on the 9th
of April The Tribune says: We ap-
prehend that there is barely time for
the work required to bring her back to
the side of Loyalty and Liberty. There
was a heavy fraudulent vote polled
against us last year, by the aid of nat
uralizations>obtained through perjury
and large expenditure on behalf Of
the millionaires who headed the Demo
cratic tickets. Workingmen were cheat
ed by pretense of devotion to their
interest, and by making them believe
that Democratic triumph would insure
them as much pay for eight hours work
as they had previously received for ten.
We are confident that much fog has
since been dispelled, and that votes
given last year for English and "iron
Barnum" will now be cast for the Re
publicans. Still, the State is doubtful,
and can only be carried by systematic,
energetic WORK.

The Repudiator-We have received
from st. Louis new Democratic paper call
ed The Repudiator, the object of which is
clearly set forth in the following extract
from it's leading editorial:
"The object of this journal will be to
accomplish the Reputation of the so-called
national debt. These bonds are the repre-
sentatives of fraud, of stealing, of public
plunder and other ferns of rascality and
the people cannot pay them without making
themselves parties to the crimes which the
bonds represent. In this just view of the
subject, the repudiation of this socalled
debt becomes a high moral duty. We should
not pay such a debt if we could; we cannot
if we would. By disowning this debt We
shall strike at the root of all existing political
and commercial evils. We shall disarm the
periured traitors, who now sway their usurp-
ed authority, of the most formidable weapon
which they use against Public Liberty p
That's Democracy.

LETTER FROM COLUMBUS.

COLUMBUS, o., March 9Th, 1868.
DEAR JouRNAL-To-day several bills from
the House were acted upon in the Senate
and passed. None of them, however, in
volved subjects of general interest to your
readers. One Senate bill was passed by
that body which has general interest. 1t
modi6es the law restraining animals from
running at large SO as 10 permit COWS to go
free. This bill must yet pass the House 10
become law.
The special order for this day was the
contested election for the 9Th District, where
in Onderdonk seeks to oust Jones from his
seat. The inability of counsel for the con-
testants to appear, induced a postponement
of the case until TO- morrow at 10 o'clock.
March l0.-This morning, after the jour
nal was read, the Senate took up the con-
tested election mentioned. Each party, by
resolution Of the Senate for that purpose, had
the privilege to address the Senate by him.
self or counsel Mr. Baker opened the case
on behalf of Onderdonk in speech of sew
eral hours. Attorney General West con-
sumed the remainder of the time in close
review and analysis of the case. His argu-
ment was powerful and instructive. Al 6
P NJ, the Senate adjourned until ., A. NJ,
to-morrow, when Mr.. West will resume his
argument. An evening session, to hear
argument would have been held, but Mr..
VS.. feeble health induced Senators 20 give
him time for rest.
MARCH 1.-THE Senate to-day continued
and completed the consideration of the con-
tested election. l doubt if on any occasion
a more powerful and eloquent argument was
ever made in that hall than that delivered
to-day by Attorney General West. He was
followed by Mr.. Baber for the other side.
In the afternoon a few Senators on each side
discussed the case in short speeches, when,
at late hour for supper, vote was had.
1t is needless to say that by strict party
vote Joues was ousted and Onderdonk seated
in the Senate, which gives the Democracy
three majority in that body. Never was
greater outrage on law and justice commit
ted than this action of the Ohio Senate.
