JOINT RESOLUTION.
1st Resolved by the General Assembly of the
State of Ohio, That by the law and justice
of the case, the United States five-twentv
bonds are payable in United States legal
tender notes..
I ID. That said bonds ought to be paid as
fast as it can be done without too great an
expansion of the currency; that the d, :
gree of expansion proper to he establish ID
and kept up while the National and State
debts are being paid, is that under which
those debts were mainly created, having
reference always to the increasing business
of the country: that the contraction that
has been made far below this proper point,
is wrong upon the tax payers.
/ Sd. That the national bank note circula-
tion ought to be retired by law, and United
States legal tender notes substituted and
henceforth there should be but two kinds
of circulating medium authorized in the
country, tO-wit: coin and United States
legal tender paper money, and every other
kind should be prohibited.
4ih. That all the propositions in Con-
gress, known as funding schemes whereby
| it Is. proposed to convert the five-twenty
bonds into gold bonds in consideration of
llongerstime and reduced rate of interest,
are Objectionable and Odious in the ex-
treme. st-- -
9Th. That all attempts to hasten the re-
sumption of specie payment upon the Uni
ted States legal tender notes, by fixing, q
time certain for such redemption, are Who'll
| ly. uncalled for, and can only tend to i'm
pair the national credit.
| 9Th. Resoloed, That the Governor be re-
quested to cause a copy of the foregoing
resolutions to be presented as memorial
to each branch of the National Congress

Mr. HUGHES, of Butler, favored the
adoption of the report.
Mr.. SHERW1N was opposed to unau-
thoriZed printing, but as these documents
were needed, he was willing, with the COM
mittee, to pay for them out of the State
printing fund.
Mr.. SCOTT, of Warren, also favored the
adoption of the report.
The House refused to adopt the report
yeas 43. nays 32-the vote necessary to pass
such a resolution being So. -i'
On motion OF Mr.. POND, House bill 12S,
to amend the 41st section of an act to pro-
vide for the reorganization of Common
Schools, passed March Ia, 1858, was taken
from the table.
The question being on the passage Of
the bill. '5 81 II
Mr.. HUGHES, of Butler, favored its pas
sage. He thought the County Auditors
should have additional compensation for
their services for common schools.
Mr.. ROUGH was opposed to the bill
In his opinion auditors are fully compen-
Mr.. PENNISTEN advocated the allow
ance as an incentive to encourage auditors
to take an interest in the common school
system of the State.
MIR. BOEHMER said in the original bill
the Auditor was allowed from 500 to
$500 per year in most counties Tor services
in school matters. He thought the old law
good enough, If the bill introduced by
Tim was amended so as to allow more than
$500.
Mr.. FIELDING generally coucurred in
O Union with Mr.. B9hmer in his remarks.
He thought $500 would be good maxi
mum compensation. He was willing to
leave it to the county commissioners.
Mr.. POND said many county Auditors
got nothing tor their services in school mat
terS. He wanted to correct this matter SO
that a uniform system should prevail.
Mr.. HUGHES, of Highland, said the act
of 1867 was correct as it now stood. The
Commissioners had control of the matter,
and were fully authorized to make the prop
er allowance.
Mr.. SCOTT, of Warren, read two sections
of the acts of 1861 concerning tn COM
pensation of CO unity auditors according to
the population, on the order of the county
commissioners, with extra compensation
for clerk hire. He thought these sections
perfectly plain.
Mr.. GASTON was opposed to the repeal
of tue 4lst section. 1t would make the
of county auditors very un-
equal. The sun aller counties would receive
as much as the larger ones, which would be
unjust.
The yeas and nays were called and re-
Al, nays SO. So the bill was
lost.

resolution, which was laid On the tabl e
under notice to discuss: HE
