REGISTRY LAW.

All parts of the State of Ohio are now
so closely connected with each other,
and with other States. by lines of rail-
way. that great and constantly lncreas-
ing facilities are afforded for the per-
petration of the class of frauds, on the
elective franchise, commonly known as
"colonizing." In the cities, men called
"repeaters,'' it is said, are paid wages
according to the number of unlawful
votes they succeed in casting at the
same election. The increase of popula-
ton adds to the difficulty of detecting
and preventing fraudulent voting, in
whatever mode it may be practiced.
1t is manitestly impossible.
amid the hurry and excite
ment of an election, that the legal right
to vote, of every person who may offer
his ballot, should be fully and fairly in
vesti@at,d d and decided. The expert
ence of many of the older States has
proved that this can best be done at
some period prior to the election, so as
to give to every legal voter, in an cleo
tion precinct, an opportunity to chal-
lenge the claim of any person whose
right is deemed questionable. Laws to
accomplish this have been IN force in
several other States for many years,
and have been carried out successfully
and with the general approval of the
people. Believing that an act provid-
ing for the registration of all legal vot-
ers is the most effective remedy yet de-
vised for the prevention of frauds on
the sacred right of suffrage, and that a
registry law can be SO framed that it
viii deprive no citizen, either native
born or naturalized, of his just rights, ]
respectfully recommend to your con-
| fsideration the propriety of enactina
such law. r. B. HAYES.

From Cleveland A Terrible
Calamity.

Calamity.
CLEVELAND, o., November "a.
A frightful casualty occurred in
this city at halt past four O. clock this
afternoon A main sewer in course
of construction caved in at the cor
ner of Broadway and Cross streets,
burying a whole gang of workmen
ten or twelve feet under ground.
The utmost excitement prevailed in
that portion Of the city, and an i'm
mense crowd quickly gathered at the
spot and commenced the work OF
eXhumation. At half past Z O'Clock
three hours after the accident, the
first man was taken out, and by 10
O'Clock five had qeen exhumed, two
dead and three terribly injured.
The names of the dead are Thomas
Buslur and John Wolser. The in
jured are Patrick Rogers, John
Gangham and John Stasny. Their
internal injuries are severe, and the
recovery of one Or two Of them is
doubtful. Several others escaped
with slight bruises. r.e.
The City Council met at the usual
time, but adjourned on account OF
the disaster, and all the members
repaired to the spot to render all
possible aid. They purchased four
dozen shovels, and procured physi-
clans and carriages to convey the
injured to their homes. .-- ...

EMPoRARY APPROPRIATIONS.

TEMPORARY APPROPRIATIONS.
Small temporary appropriations are
required as promptly as practicable, for
each of the following objects, the exist
ing appropriations having been ex-
hausted, viz: Expenses of the Presiden-
tial election; expenses for the General
Assembly, Trustees of Benevolent In
stitutions, care of State House. gas for
State House; expenses for Legislative
Committees, binding for the State, and
the new Idiotic Asylum.
REVISION OF THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM.
In pursuance of an act passed March
Is, 1867, Board of Commissioners con-
sisting of Aaron F. Perry, Of Hamilton
county; Charles E. Glidden, of Mahon-
ing county, and James Ii. Goldman, Au-
ditor of State, was appointed by my
predecessor, Governor Cox, whose duty
it was to ''revise all the laws of this
State relating to the assessm ent and tax
alton of property, the collection, safe
keeping and disbursement of the rev.
enues, and all the laws constituting the
financial system of the State" and to
report their proceedings to the next
session of the General Assembly. The
report of the commission was laid be-
fore you at your last session. 1t dis
closed many imperfections and incon-
sistencies in the existing legislation
touching the finances, and the urgent
| necessity for an elaborate revision of
that legislation. Their report was ac-
companied by eight separate bills. con-
| solidating the present laws, removing
contradictions, and supplying defects,
but introducing no radical change in
the general principles of our financial
| system. These bills have already been
somewhat considered in both branches
of the General Assembly; but nc def
mite action upon them has yet been had.
1 respectfully recommend an early con
sideration of the bills, and their adop-
tion, with such amendments as in your
Judgment the public interests may re-
quire.
| zen LUNAIIC ASYLUM.
The destruction of the Central Luna
tic Asylum by fire, during the night OF
the 18th inst, causing the death by suf-
location of six of the patients, and in
calculable distress and suffering to the
remainder, will require investigation
and prompt action on your part. In re-
building the Asylum, the erection of a
| tire-proof building will occur to you as
alike the suggestion of prudence and
humanity.
This calamity also suggests the pro-
priety of examining the condition OF
the other institutions of the State, with
a view to providing them with every
proper means of security against a SIM
| liar disaster.
COMMON SCHOOLS.
The interests of common school edu-
cation, in my opinion, will be promoted
by the early adoption of county super
intendency, as provided in a bill on
that subject now pending in one branch
of the General Assem- bly,. l therefore
earnestly recommend the consideration
and passage of the bill.
The Commissioner of Common Schools
is required, in the discharge of his du-
ties, to pay out each year, for travelling
expenses, about 500. The propriety OF
refunding to him, out of the State Trea-
sury, his travelling expenses, will prob
ably not be called in question.

LETTER FROM SECRETARY SEWARD.
DEPARTMENT OF STATE, !
WASHINGTON. Nov. II. '6S {

Geo. B. ,Senter, Esq, Cleveland o. +:
My DEAR SIR l thank you for the
consideration which moved you to
advise me of the sudden aud lament
able departure of the late David Tod
Mr.. Tod, although long a distin
guished public character, only
became personally known to me in
what, perhaps, was the most trying
crisis Of the late civil war His pre-
vious connection with the Demo
cratic party enabled him to render
invaluable service to our Union adj
ministration. He gave ME full con
fiGence on the spot, and he never
failed, afterwards, to yield to the
most vigorous and energetic support
to the Government. 1t was the pa
triotic services thus rendered the ma.
ton which induced President Lin
coin, upon my suggestion, to tender
to Mr.. Tod the Office of Secretary
of the Treasury when Mr. Salmon
2. Chase resigned. Few citizens OF
the United States have left purel
or nobler record.
Very truly, yours,
WILLIAM I'll. SEWARD.

sembly:
Upon your assembling to enter again
upon the duty of legislating for the wei
fare of the people of Ohio, the Governor
is required by the Constitution to COM
municate to you the condition of the
State, and to recommend such measures
as he shall deem eXpedient. The re-
ports of the Executive officers of the
State, and of the heads of the State in
stitutions, are required by law to be
made to the Governor on or before the
20th day of November of each year.
Since that date, sufficient time has not
elapsed for the publication of the re-
ports, and l shall therefore not be able
at the opening of your present session
to lay before you Il detailed exposition
of the affairs of the various departments
of the State government. 1t Will be my
purpose in this communication to in
vite your attention to few brief sug-
gestions in relation to some measures
which are deemed important,and which
may be considered and acted upon, if
YOU think it advisable, in advance of
the publication of the official reports.
FINANCES.
The financial affairs of the State gov
ernment are in a satisfactory condition.
The balance in the Treasury on the 18th
of November, 1867, was $677,990 70; the
receipts during the last fiscal year were
$4.347, ,4e4 50; making the total amount
of funds in the Treasury, during the
year, $5.025,475 61.
The disbursements during the year
have been $4,455,354 Sc; which sum has

TION BOARDS.

TION BOARDS.
submit to your Judgment the pro-
priety of such amendments to the cleo
tion laws as will provide, first, for the
representation of minorities in the
boards of the judges and clerks of the
elections; and second, for the registra-
tion of all the lawful voters in each
township, ward and election precinct,
prior to the election.
That the boards Of elections ought to
be so constituted that minorities as well
as majorities will have fair represen-
tation in them, is so plainly, just that
in some parts Of the State. even in times
of the highest political excitement,such
representation has been obtained,in the
absence of law, by arrangement be
tween the committees of the rival DO
litical parties. 1t is not probable that
any mode of selecting judges and clerks
of elections car be adopted which WILL
in every case, accomplish this object.
But in all cases where the strength of
ljlS 10 litll, VI IICtll Hflll DIS
great as that of the majority, the desir-
ed representation of the minority may
be insured with sufficient certainty by
several different plans. For example,
it may be provided that at the election
of the three judges who are to decide all
questions at the polls, each elector may
be allowed to vote for two candidates
only, and that the three candidates hay
ing the highest number of votes shall
be declared elected, and in like manner
that at the election of the two clerks of
elections each elector may vote for one
candidate only, and that the two can
didates receiving the highest number
of votes shall be declared elected. .
I do not lay much stress on the par
ticular plan here suggested, but your
attention is invited to the Importance
of a fair representation of the minori-
ty in all boards of elections, not doubt
ing that your widsom will be able to
devise suitable measure to accom-
plish it.
