Asked to Take Action in the Cases Of
.u Virginia and Mississippi r

.au Washington, April THE fol-
lowing is the Presidents message
alluded to In the Congressional
proceedings:
10 the Senate and House of HcpresGat-
While lam aware that the time
in which Congress proposes now
10 remain in session is very brief,
and hat it * its desire, as far as
consistent with the public inter
est, to avoid entering upon gen
eral business ofLegislation, there
is one subject which concerns so
deeply the welfare of the country
that ! deem it my duty to bring
it before you. l have no doubt
that you will concur with me in
the opinion that tits desirable to
restore the States which were
engaged in the rebellion to their
proper relations to the govern
ment and the country at as early
a period as the people of those
| States shall be found willing to be
come peaceful and orderly COM
mHnities, and to adopt aid main
ltain such constitutions and laws
as will Acknowledgements the civil
and political rights Of all persons
| within their borders. The author
| ity of the United States, which
has been Viffdicated and estab-
lished by It's military power, must
undoubtedly be asserted for the
absolute protection Of all its cit
liens of the full enjoyment of the
freedom and security Whichis the
object of the republican govern,
ment. But whenever the people
of a rebellious state are ready ia
enter in good faith upon the nc.
cOmphshment of this object In en-.
tire conformity with the eonstitu
tional authority of Congress, it il
certainly desirable that all causes
of irritation should be removed
as promptly as possible, that
more perfect union may be estab
/ Hshed, and the country be restored
to peace and prosperity. The con
vention OF the people OF Virginia
which met in Richmond or Tues
day, December 8, 1867, framed
constitution for that State which
was adopted by Convention oil
the nth of April, 1868, andI de
sire respectfully to call the at
tention Of Congress to the propri
ETY. of providing by the law 10
the holding of an election in tina

OHIO LEGISLATURE
COLUMBUS April l

COLUMBUS, April III.
The House last night resolved to
adjourn sine die on the a6th OF April.
Another indication OF adjournment
was the introduction of the General
Appropriation Bill.
Bills were introduced in the Senate
providing for the erection of a new
Blind Asylum and the rebuilding of
the Central Ohio Lunatic Asylum.
The Senate, late yesterday after
noon, postponed the Agricultural Col
lege question until next Wednesday.
This vexed question bids fair to last
forever.
The proposed constitutional amend
ment giving municipal corporations
and counties power to loan their credit
to railroad companies, met a most de-
cided defeat in the House, last eve
ming, after an all days struggle.
The House and Senate, after q short
| session adjourned until Monday.
I The House re-cOnsidered the vote
| by which it refused to adopt the reso-
luton proposing the railroad amend
ment to the Constitution.
In the Senate, Mr.. Brooks intro
duced a railroad bill authorizing the
| stockholders of any railroad company
to direct their boards Of directors to
/ so classify their members that the
terms Of Office Of one-fourth shall ex-
! pire in each year thereafter.
Bills were also introduced to ex-
empt railroad Companies FROM max
ing enclosures within cities and towns;
to amend the code of civil procedure
in reference to errors in pleading, and
to provide that clerks Of cities of the
second class shall act as clerks Of
Boards of Education. Z
The nominations of Theo. G. Worm.
ley as Gas Inspector, and &ortnn g.

Asylum, were confirmed.
