declaring that the act was only passed
to check the career of Andrew john
son after he had abandoned his party.
One reason why he desired repeal was
to enable President Grant to remove
the johnson men and cOpperheads
still in office. Mr. Drake was in IA
vOr of repeal, but would not vote for
suspension, which, was but another
method of putting the President upon
probation. He wanted to leave the
President free to turn out corrupt
officers and others unfriendly to the
republican party. Mr.. Morrill, denied
that the act was intended merely as a
check upon Mr.. Johnson, but he
would gladly see it modified, but
neither suspended nor repealed. He
dissented from the views expressed by
republican Senators in regard to gov
eminent patronage, and denounee
the doctrine of "to the victors belong
the spOilsn as a source of great ma
tlonalevil. Mr.. Casserly favored repeal,
contending that under the constitution
the power of removal was vested in the
President alone, and was a necessary
power in order to secure faithful ad-
ministration of duties. The doctrine
implied in the law that the power of
removal could be regulated by legis-
lation was a dangerous heresy, and
its logical conclusion was that Con-
gress had the right to deprive the
President of that power. altogether.
At half-past four o'clock, without
taking any action on the bill, the
Senate adjourned.

Condemned JaiIs.

The following we extract from the
report of the Board Of State Charities.
In speaking Of Condemned Jails it
says:
"Quite a number Of our JaiIs have
been condemned by grand %juries, and
declared nuisances, unfit for confine-
ment of human beings, and yet the
counties, year after year, refuse to
allow their commissioners to levy a
tax sufficient to erect a better one. In
some counties this inhumanity has
continued too long. The Board feel
compelled to call special attention TO
this subject, and to recommend that
the necessary legislation TO correct this
evil be adopted. A simple and eff
cientremedy would bea law forbiddfng
the use of a Jail building, after it has
been repeatedly, say three or four
times, condemned by grand juries, as
unfit for occupancy, or as a nuisance,
the prisoners to be kept in such ada
cent counties as provide more humane
accommodations; and also, that after
such repeated condemnations by
grand juries, it shall be the duty of
County Commissioners of such coun-
ties to levy a tax and proceed to erect
a suitable Jail building"

~NeighborhOod News,

The Town Council of Salem have
resolved to purchase a steam fire en-.
CINE. This is a move in the right di.
rection. Every town of that size
should own one of these valuable
machines, and there is a prospect that
the legislature will authorize all incor-
porated villages containing upwards
of $500 inhabitants 10 levy a tax for
the purchase of one.
The New Lisbon Malleable Iron
Works have not yet gone into full
operation, and cannot until they re-
ceive a large amount of machinery,
including a heavy trip hammer, &C.,
which has been ordered, and which
they expect in a few days. The early
spring will find them in full blast,
which will make it lively enough in
that quarter Of the town.
The fourth quarterly convention of
the Columbiana County Temperance
Society will be held at Leetonia, on
Tuesday, March 23d.
John Clark, a tobacconist in
Youngstown, in October last manufae-
tured a huge cigar, six feet long and
eight inches in diameter, which hung
in his store since then with a placard
as follows: TO be presented to GRANT
at the Inauguration The cigar has
recently been sent by express to Gen.
Grant, and las probably reached its
destination by this time.
At the session ofthe Commissioners,
two weeks ago, a petition was pre-
sented for the incorporation of Leeto-
mia, Columbiana Co. The proposed
limits are to embrace a tract two miles
long from east to west and a mile and
half wide from north to south. There
appears to be but little opposition to
he move ment.
]. G. Chamberlain, Esq, who was
appointed station agent at Leetonia,
Columbiana county, when the station
was first established, resigned a few
ago, and Mr.. James L. Truesdale was
appointed in his stead. This is a good
appointment and will give entire sat
isfaction to the large number of per-
sons who do business at that station.
A bold but unsuccessful attempt was
made to open the county Treasurer's
safe at New Lisbon, on Friday night,
9Th inst. The burglars were evident
ly frightened away. The contents,
$4,000, were found all right next
morning.

About three miles from Barnett's
Station, near Atlanta, Georgia, where
q month ago the rebels took posses
sion of a railroad train, another band
of the Ku-KluX, on Sunday night,
prowled about until day break, COM
hitting outrages on the colored peo-
pie. They beat eleven freedmen
almost to death, fractured the arm Of
one and shot another. They also
whipped most cruelty a bright mu-
latto girl, sixteen years old, and when
insensible aid almost dead four of the
fiends in succession outraged her per-
son.
A party Of Ku-Klux went to the
plantation of the well-known Confed-
crate General J. L.. Alcorn in Coahoma
county, Mississippi, recently, and
burned 8 hne two-story residence, a
steam cotton gin worth ten or fifteen
thousand dollars, and all his negroe
quarters, not sparing even q smoke
house. The cause of this outrage was
that General Aleorn, like General
Longstreet, believes that the Repub-
lican party is now the only national
party, and the best friend of the South.
IL
The General is compelled, by wound
received in the rebel service, to walk
on crutches.
During February, SS4,473 pounds Of
chewing tobacco was shipped in bond
from Richmond. The tax was pre-
paid on all smoking tobacco except 48C
pounds.
By the explosion of a still in Alex.
SehOfeld & Cos refinery, in Cleve-
land, Ohio, Mathew Wilson, of that
firm, was instantly killed, and John
Cowan, a gas filter, probably MORALLY
wounded. They had entered the still,
which was empty, for the purpose OF
making repairs, when Cowan struck
a match to see his work, which caused
! the explosion.

WORK TO DO YET.

A great deal Of work laid out to be
done is yet to do. The revision of the
tax laws, the codifying and revising
of all the municipal corporation laws,
are important measures that it would
be very unwise to hurry through
without due consideration. The agri-
cultural college and the new peniten-
tiary questions will consume time,
and it is doubtful if they will be dis
posed of this session. A reform school
for girls IS also a question of import
ance, demanding attention. Besides
these there are several hundred other
matters yet to dispose of by the legis-
lature. We are surely in for four
weeks more, and perhaps six. R.

A NEW BRIDGE BILL.

a bill was introduced by your rep
resentative, a few days since, for the
better protection of free county oridg'
es, providing that such bridges as may
have caution notices placed on them
by the county commissioners, any
person driving on oil over them faster
than a walk, or driving or or over
them a greater number of cattle or
horses than 20 head, at one time, may
be arrested by a constable or marshal
on view, prosecuted in the name of
the State, and on conviction be fined
from one to ten dollars. The commits
sioners say that the present law is
wholly inadequate to the proper pro-
lection of expensive bridges. and that
the public interest demands a more
stringent and eficacious law.
