n,ors Retrenchment,

The Democratic Legislature of the
State having again been retrenching.-
The law making new seal passed by
the last Legislature has been repealed,
consequently the State and county
offices will be compelled to again pro-
cure new seals. This may be q good
thing for some large engraving estab-
lishment. but we don't think 1t will put
any money in the pockets of the peo-
ple. The following is a description of
the new seal as prescribed by the law
passed by the present Legislature:
'"rhat the coat of arms of the State OF
Ohio shall consist Of the following de-
vice A shield in form, q circle on 1t ;
in the foreground, on the right, sheaf
of wheat, on the left bundle of seven
teen arrows, both standing erect. In
the back ground, and rising above the
sheaf and arrows, mountain range,
over which shall appear a rising sun."
Now as to whether the above change
will be in any manner benifcial to the
taxpayers of the State, we have our
doubts. If we must have new seal let
us have one that will portray On its
face the principles Of the great party
which is in the ascendant in the Legis-
lature. Let there be inscribed on the
shield, "Protect us from negro equality -
on the right in place of the sheaf, aone
legged soldier on crutches, hearing q
scroll on which shall be inscribed, dds
franchised :" on the left In place of the
arrows representation of the lamp o.
science on which shall be engraved the
words "snuHed out-nO student shall
vote. u In the foreground and rising
prominently above the balance of the
seal should be representation OF q
draft t-sneak and rebel soldier, each bear
ing a'scroll, "this is white mans gov
ernment, ~ while in the rear OF these
figures, should be an engraving of O
person supposed to have n visible ad
rnixture' of saddle-colored Democratic
blood about his person, bearing the fol
lowing Observation-Disclosures
democratic ticket or none. The Dor
der of the seal to bear the cemblems of.th'
Democratic party North and South:
Copperhead and rattlesnake. We thinl
this will be quito an improvement OF
the seal lately adopted but we would
suggest that the alteration be not mait
untilallt the county and State officers hav'
procured the seal lately adopted by oul
glorious, delicious and sweet-sentet
Democratic Legislature. There Is plen'
ty of time to have 1t changed before tn
election. If the Legislature adopts ou
| suggestions, we hope they will supply
the Secretory of each Democratic clu'
throughout the State with one, to beuse'
during the coming campaign.-l Nobl

The National Credit.

No nation can afford to attack its own
credit. 1t is to be hoped that we shall
have no more wars and no more rebell-
ions, but 1t Is not certain. The only
thing certain is, that If we have another
war we shall not be able to raise the mon
ey to carry 1t on, five repudiate any part
of our existing obligations. And the
evil example of national dishonor would
permeate society in every part, unset
tling the foundations of commercial NOR
ality and prosperity. Let 1t be once es-
tablished that the bonds are payable in
the existing greenbacks, and the argu-
ment for issuing new greenbacks to the
extent ofthe whole debt will be irresisti-
BILE. Such deluge of paper would send
the whole country into bankruptcy, and
.inflict, losses upon private business far
greater than the whole public debt. The
debt itself is held mainly by our own
citizens, and fully one-halfofit, directly
or indirectly by the poorer classes. The
bonds of the Government constitute the
basis not only of the national banks,
whose notes are in the hands OF the peo'
pie, hut of the sayings banks, whose de-
posits are, to u large extent, invested In
the bonds. TO impair the value of, much
more to repudiate, the national obliga.
tions, would be an oct of suicidal folly
akin to that of one who should plunge
his whole body into boiling water u
remove the pain ofa quitobite.-Chi'
cago Tribune. ~

Senate in due course and was referred to
the committee on Public Buildings, con-
sisting of one Republican and two DEM

up by one of the Democratic members,
recommending the concurrence of the
Senate in the appointment. This report
was signed by one Democrat and the
Republican member of the committee

(Gen. Yeoman) moved that the commit

Mr.. Garfield yesterday made an elab-
crate argument in the House in favor of
his bill, introduced on the 10th of Feb
ruary, TO provide for gradual return to
specie payment. The bill provides that
on and after the 1st of December, 1868,
the Secretary of the Treasury shall ex-
change gold for legal tender notes, ut
the rate of one gold dollar for one dol
lar and thirty cents in currency on the
on the 1st of January, 1869, at one dol
lar and twenty-nine cents, and
first of each succeeding month at simu-
lar rates, until the exchange is dollar
for dollar and that OH and after June
l, 1871, the Uuited States will pay gold
for legal tendor notes, dollar for dollar.
1t leaves the questions of contraction or
expansion of the. currency to future
legislation.

The Record Republican Senators Have


The following Is the resolution adopt
ed by the Senate in executive session on
the night of the 2lst of February last 3
Whereas, The Senate have read and
considered the communication of the
President stating that he had removed
Hon. Il. M. Stanton, SecAntary of War,
and had designated the Adjutant Cen
eral of the Army to act as Secretary Of
War ad interim. Therefore,
Resolved, BY the Senate of the United
States, that under the Constitution and
laws of the United States, the President
has no power to remove the Secretary of
War, and designate any other officer to
perform the duties of that office dd
interim.
This resolution was voted for by the
following Senator'S:
Messrs. Anthony, Cameron, Cattell,
Cole, Conklin, Cragin, Drake, Ferry,
Harlan, Morrill,, of Moine, Morrill,, OF
Vermont, Morton, Patterson, of New
HAMPSHIRE, Pomeroy, Ramsey, Ross,
Sprague, Stewart, sumner, Thayer,
Upton, TrumbttU, Van Winkte, Wade,
Williams, Wiley, Wilson, Yates
The following is the resolution rein
stating Secretary Stanton, adopted on
tho l3th of January last.
Resotued, That, having considered the
evidence and reasons given by the Pres-
dent, in his report of the 18th of Decenl-
Der, 1867, for the suspension of Edwin
NJ. Stanton, the Senate do not concur In
such suspension.
This resolution was voted for by the
following Senators, all ofwhomit might
reasonably be supposed. believed the
Civil-Tenure act applicable to Mr.. Stan
toms case, and it can scarcely escape the
conclusion that his removal was an in
fraction of the law:

The manner in which the promises of
retrenchment and reduction Of taxes
made by the leaders of the Democratic
party in the last campaign are being
fulfilled may be inferred from the follow
ing facts.
The Legislature OF the State has been
in session under Democratic control 1873
days, and has cost the State $780, ,0OO.-
The Republican Legislature last year
was in session 99 days and cost the
State less than 100000, Il difference in
favor of the Republicans of 100000.
The present Legislature has created
six more Common Pleas Judges in the
State at salary of $4,000 each, making
an increase of expenditure of $4,000.

THE person whose name stands at the
head of the editorial or some other col
nmn of the Gazette as its ostensible edi-
tor, or some one Of the Numerous other
persons who ofiiciate in the capacity OF
editors to that journal, has, after seven
years dilllgent application and research
made the wonderful discovery that there
is no name printed in large type In the
columns of the CHRONICLE purporting
TO be the name of its editor, and col
umn of the precious space of that paper
Is occupied in an effort to satisfy the
Democracy that our paper has no editor.
Well, it's possible that this effort may
be successful and that hereafter they
may believe that the CHRONICLE has no
editor, but from the amount of loud,
long, deep and bitter cursing the man
whose name stands at the head of its
columns as its publisher has received
from the rank-and-filc as well as from
the leaders of that party, on account of
the articles that have appeared in its
columns, we think it safe to conclude that
about the past, at least, there is no ques-
ton. For the future, if the editor of the
Gazette is anxious to have the name OF
some person whom he desires to hold
personally responsible for anything that
may appear in these columns, we will
say to him that the publisher, G. l..
Poorman writes all articles that appear as
editorials, and is responsible in any and
every way for them.
We have never conceived it necessary
to occupy space to inform our readers
who the editor of the CHRONICLE was
as there has never been any controversy
or misunderstanding on that subject
1t is very different, however, in the cas'
of our cotemporary. One editor, within
q year, has refused to allow his name t.
remain at the head of its columns be
cause he was required to father tn,
bastard offspring of an irresponsible
4 clique, which'the proprietor sought t.
legtimize by forcing through its column
under the name of decent man. ANT
now, the proprietor, who is almost con
stantly engaged on his farm and nursery
has his name at the head of its column
as editor when it is well known tina
nearly all the articles that appear as edi
torals are written by the misorabl
faction of Benedict Know Nothings who
in this County, rule with an iron han
J the destinies of the Democratic party
and farm out its offices to those who ar
willing to become the plant tools of tn
clique.
