LOCAL ELECTIONS.
;H Their are a number of black.

re- Their are number of black
guards in the Ohio Legislature as
we'll as in the Penitentiary. Which
has the largest proportion we are
not prepared to say. Two of those
in the Legislature proved them
selves entitled to the name one day
last week. Mr.. Wolf was speaking
against the proposed reformatory
prison, when Mr.. Ball interrupted
him with point of order. Mr.. Wolf
replied in an excited manner, 81 will
not be tyranized over by YOU -
Mr.. Ball retorted, "shut your
mouth, you dirty scoundrel. AS
usual in such cases, they then went
for each other, but the Sergeant-at-
arms interferred to prevent the last
argument eff blackguards, knock
down. Such scene in the saloons
of Columbus, might not be out of
place, but in our legislative halls it is
scandulous, and should bring ex-
pulsion to both. They disgraced
themselves, the State, and their con-
stituents, and should be taught that
such scenes are not proper to the
halls of Legislation of the great
State of Ohio.

w- Amongst Atlantic Gables, steam
navigation and those progressions of
science and art that mark the nine
teenth century, not the least useful,
are DR.. Ayers medicines. They take
rank among the benefactions of man
kind, from the rapidity and certainty
with which they cure. Try Ayers

E The Hartford Courant refers to
the campaign in Connecticut as follows:
"The fight has not been noisy, but it
has been hotly contested nevertheless,
and fairly, too, without disguise, hesi-
tation, or equivocation. There has
been less public speaking than usual,
but probably more hard committee
work, and more thorough canvass
than we have had for many years. The
Fifteenth Amendment was chosen by
our opponents as the salient point for
their attack. They have rung the
charges upon the negro and the mig
ger, and State sovereignty and State
independence, 'nigger supremacy DC,
ad intnitun Their salt has lost its
SAVIOR; their old bugbears frighten no
longer. Connecticut supports the ad-
ministration, and maintains the princi-
pies of the Republican party.

Reconstruction.

President Grant sent q message to
Congress, on the 7th, urging that
body to re submit the adoption OF
the Constitution framed at Rich
mond and adopted May 18th, 1868, to
a vote of the people in May or june
next, and advising similar course
in the case Of Mississippi. The OBJ
ject aimed at is the restoration of
those States to their proper relations
in the Union.
/. Congress was promptin acting upon
this request. Abill was reported by
the Senate Judiciary committee, and
with only three hours discussion,
passed by yeas 43, nays 9. Itimmedi-
ately went to the House and before
the close Of the evening session, was
passed by yeas 1O7, nays q. The
bill gives the President power to or
der elections in these States at such
times as he may think proper.
1t is worth noting, says the cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Gazstte,
in this connection that the action of
Congress on this measure gives the
best possible proof of the harmony
between that body and the President
Here were the two Houses wrangling
all wintes about the reconstruction
question, and utterly unable to agree
upon anything. The President sends
in his brief message suggesting a
way of cutting the Gordian knot,
and in two days Congress disposes of
the whole matter by putting it into
his hands and giving him power to
order an election in each of these
unreconstructed States at his pleas
ure. This settles the subject, and
except as it may possibly arise in
regard to Georgia, the country is not
likely to hear much more of the res
construction question. 1t may be
added that the President will proba-
bly order an election in Virginia in
about six weeks, with provision for
q separate vote on three clauses of
the new Constitution. -

Messenger says:-"'Attorney General

to get the best lawyer possible for this

appointed the poorest lawyer among all
the applicants for the place. He even
went so far as to refer the whole matter

A HoRsE THIEF DISPOSED or IN

horse, valued at sl7o, stolen from his
stable at his residence, near Hamden.
Immediately after learning of his loss
he started with number Of bis neigh

ing him just as he was putting the
horse into the stable, at his mothers
residence, on White Oak, nine miles

place ON Thursday; on Friday morn

The prisoner, who is rather a good
looking young man, aged about twen-
ty three. gave his name as Royal Ful-
ton, said be was returning from near
Shadeville. Franklin county, to his
home in Gallia county; that he got
drunk at Hamden, the roads were
muddy, he thought it was better riding
than walking, and took the horse.
1t is seldom that criminals have JUS
tice meted out to them in as short q
time as in this ease, and We hope it
will convince horse thieves that Vim

the thief, who was arrested on the
same day; Thursday he was brought
back, and Friday. before ten O'Clock,
he was tried convicted and sentenced.

R- We copy the following from the
proceedings of the Ohio Legislature OF
April 9th. Mr.. Hill is not good DEM
ocrat--if he was he would swallow,
without spasm, every thing that the
Enquirer says. To be good demo-
crat is always to vote an unscratched
ticket, and to adopt as true everything
the party organ says.
Mr.. Linn's proposed change in the
Constitution of Ohio, to enable coun-
ties, etc., to aid in the construction of
railroads, consumed almost the entire
day in the House. During the discus
sion, Mr.. w. D. Hill, of Defiance, one
of the leading Democratic members,
made fierce speech or two against it,
denouncing it as anti-Democratic, etc.
Mr.. Scott, of Warren, reminded him
that the Cincinnati Enquirer, yesterday
morning and this, had editorial articles
strongly approving theproposed change.
Mr.. Scott wanted to know ifthat was
not good Democratic authority.
Mr.. Hill, somewhat excitedly, de-
clared it was not. lie said that paper,
not many months ago, had supported
Salmon P. Chase. slightly backslid
ing Republican, for the Presidency.
More recently It had proposed Sam.
Cary, another renegade Republican,
for the Governorship of Ohio. Such
Democracy as was indicated by these
things he did not consider the genuine
article, and wanted little to do with it.
On previous occasion, he said, he had
pretty plainly intimated his doubts of
the Enquirer's orthodoxy, and now he
desired it distinctly understood that he
did not regard that paper as, in any
sense, the organ of the Democracy up
on the floor of the House.

their strength, and nsome cases added
