THE question whether the present
Congress is Constitutional body,
or merely body changing on the
verge of the Government" has
been decided in the Senate by the
vote on the resolution Of Gar
rett Davis that the Senate is
not a Constitutional body because
ten States are not represented there
in. Only two Senators voted for
the resolution, all the others, Dem
ocrat as well as Republican, main
tanning the Legality Of the Senate as
at present constituted. ,The, two
who stultifed themselves by declar-.
ing that they were sitting and act
ing as members of an Illegal body
were Davis and McCreery, both
from Kentucky. They fifty repre-
sent State which refused to ratify
the Emancipation Amendment, even
when refusal. to ratify was useless,
and which still maintains that sla-
very exists in law, if not in fact,
within its borders. Outside of Ken
lucky we hope to hear no more
Democratic complaints of the un-
constitutionality of Congress.-C.

In the Ohio House of Representa-

ted joke at the expense of certain
Demo cratic leaders, by offering a
resolution that Messrs. Ball, of Mus
skingum, Hughes, of Highland, and
Hughes, of Butler, be appointed a
special committee to consider the
-propriety of building penitentiary
for the special benefit Of white men.
Ball did not relish the joke at all
but poured out the Walls of his wrath
upon Crist, in language both filthy
and forcible, and threatened him
with personal violence as soon as
the House adjourned. Crist instead
of knocking his assallant down, de =
manded that he be arrested for
breach of privilege; but after many
speeches the affair was dropped. -

The Portsmouth Election RaS-
caIity.

The facts in relation to the case
of. democratic ballot-box stuffing in
Portsmouth last fall are rapidly
coming out. John M. Higgins, a
leading democrat, was tried the
other day for his participation in
the. job, when the jury returned a
verdict Of guilty after twenty
minutes consultation. 1t was tes
titled on a recent examination that
Englebrecht, the democratic judge
of the election in whose charge the
ballot box was left on the day of
the election while the judges went
to supper, had told the witness that
he took out Of the box fifty Repub-
lican ballots and replaced them by
fifty Democratic ballots. Eng1e-
brecht is under bonds for his ap-
pearance to answer at court but he
has made himself scarce, and his
seat in the city Council is about to
be declared vacant. This is the
party that asks to be again entrusted
with power by the people.-Lancas

"What is General Sherman but a

rights, and cotton thief? If the

he will be defeated, and we will do
all in our power to accomplish the

offence, but we are glad to find the
following in the correspondence of

as a most injndicious and irrevoca-
BILE thing, the dubbing he gave But

Wheat Prospects.

We understand that the wheat in
this county is looking splendid
The favorable winter has protected
it from freezing, and the early spring
weather is bringing it out nicely.
The prospects are that we will have.
an abundant crop.
T The Kenton Republican says:
From all parts Of the county we
hear good reports about the grow
ing wheat. There has been less
freezing and thawing than usual,
and the wheat is not thrown out of
the ground. In some portions of
the county the prospect for wheat
crop never looked better at this
season of the year. The late rains
have, brought out all the frost,s and

have an early spring. :: otri - r9qE

more cheerful countenanee, in an
ticipation of a recompense for their
labors the Last year. Truly, they
have had hard time, not reaping a
good crop for two years. We hope
that they will not be disappointed
this season.
The Hancock Couries says:
From our observation, and from
reports of farmers generally, we are
satisfied that there has not been for
years SO fair prospect for good
crop of wheat in this country as now.
This is cheering news, not only to
the farmer, but also to the merchant
the mechanic, and all Others who
are now eating bread from $1,000
and $14 90 flour.
The Lima Democrat says:
The wheat crop in Allen looks

The qualifications Of the above

His well known eminent ability as
one of the leading lawyers ofnorth-
ern Ohio, his sound practical judg
ment in matters pertaining to the
law, his thorough knowledge Of par
ihamentary tactics and usages, and
above all, his calm and deliberate
but firm and unyielding decision of
character, are qualifications highly
requisite for so important a posi-

and cast their votes for one who
would be not only credit to the

It is right and proper that the IA

slavery 'sthus far shalt thou go, and

name Of the man who offered it in

should be given to Judge Brinker-
