Negro sunrage In the state senate.

On Yesterday, majority ofthe Senators
in the Ohio Legislature adopted, as far as
one branch can adopt, a resolution to i'm.
pose Negro Suffrage on the people of Ohio
and of the other States of the Republic.
Twenty-seven months since, the people
of Ohio, by over fifty thousand majority,
decided that negroes ought not to be al
lowed to vote in this State On yesterday,
Senators elected by constituents whose
opposition to a political partnership be-
tween the negroes and the white race
recreants to the trust reposed in them
voted to entail it upon the people against
their known and expressed wishes. The
vote stood-yeas, 10; nays, Is. In the
former were all the Republicans, and with
them Messrs. Cooper and Yeatman, of
Hamilton county, elected by Democratic
votes-not one in FIVE hundred Of the
votes that elected them being given by a
Negro suffrageity The Democratic vote
was cast solid against t. When the result
was announced furious clapping of hands
ensued-white men and white women re-
ioicing that the white men, as far a. the
State Beuats could make them, were on 9
political equality with the Negro. To
their credit be it said, the negroes present
did not applaud-OAiO Statesman,

The contest m the Senate and House at
washington, last weel, on the admission
Of Old Virginia wAxed fierce and hot. The
radicals In the House were divided and
the Democratic members held the balance
Of power, and, Of course, admission car
ried. On the 14th, the vote was on Mr..
Bingham's substitute, which admitted
Virginia without any conditions whatever,
and was very close-99 to 95. There was
: some Skirmishing on the part of the ultras
to prevent the bill as amended from pas
sing, but finally went through, l4S to 49
large NUMBER of those who voted against
Bingham previously, going over to the
Conservatives on the final struggle. Cheers
broke from the gallery when the battle
was won. The credit is greatly due to the
generalship Of Mr.. Bingham. who did not
however, have his old antagonist. Butler,
pitted against him.
The speaking was warm and was par
ticipated in by Ward, Of New York /;
Burdett and Asper. Of Missouri; Steven
son, Of Ohio and Hoar of Massachusetts,.
who was convicted Of misrepresenting the
facts regarding Virginia, On the Conser-
ya6ve side the speeches Of Mr.. Bingham,
Of Ohio; Potter, Winchester Stiles, Cox,
and others of the Democrats. were pointed
and effective.
Mr.. Stiles. OF Pennsylvania, in some
brief remarks, spoke Of the vacillsting
policy of the Radical party on this bill.
At one time they were wavering, at Others
repudiating aud denouncing; and their
course reminded him of the lines Of the
poet who said:
arhor art 50 deep Discerning and yet 80 blind.
So learned, 80 ignorant, aud yet 20 Kind
% good. 20 bad, 80 foolish, and 20 wise,
By turns love thee. and by turns despise-'
This capital hit created much laughter.
Il was nearly P. N. when the seconding
Of the previous question sent the House
to vote on the bill The long breathless
silence on the vote count on Bingham's
substitute was broken by the announce
ment followed by applause Schenck
raved, but the House forced the final vote
las to 4e. A round Of applause broke
from the galleries as the vote was an
nOuneed The following is the bill as
passed:
"Joint resolution declaring Virginia Onti-
tied to representation in Congress.
rWHERHAs, The people Of Virginia
have adopted Constitution republican in
form, and have IN all respects conformed
10 the requirements of an act of Congress

1t seems the Shylocks are again knock

money usurers are always on hand. The

by Mr.. Mower, providing that "it shall be

soever on money due or to become due, in
any contract In case there is no express
contract, then six per cent. is the rate to

Fatal sHooFISG AFFRAx.
A Man has Three Balls Shot Through
his Body.

MS A-O0gs
We have gathered few particulars in
regard to a shooting afray, which took
place about one mile and quarter from
Shanesville, on the road to Carlisle, in the
territory of Holmes county, on Saturday
afternoon last, at about three o'clock. It
seems that man named Lewis Ritter, the
deceased, some time ago married widow
daughter of Jacob Kint, and accounts
state that they had not lived verY pleas
antly together, and that Ritter was ad-
dicted to drinking Kint had remOnstra-
ted with him In regard to his conduct and
some words had passed between them.
Ritter had threatened to take the life Of
Kint, and this, coming to the knowledge
of Kint, he had armed himself with re-
volver and when Ritter came to his house
and attacked him, he defended himself
Ritter was about thirty years of age, and
Kint between sixty and seventy. In Rit-
ter's attack on Kint, he came near knock
ing out his eye and breaking aItarm. Rit-
ter fired three shots, which proved fatal
a coroner's jury wsE callsd and verdict
returned substantially in accordance with
the foregoing facts. A surgical examina-
ton showed that one ball lodged In ,Rit-
teI's heart and one passed through his
lungs. Kint is stii1At large but the law
will probably be invoked to determine
whether Kint did any more than was re-
quired in self defence. Under all the cir
cumstances it looks like q case of justiia-
BILE homicide. Some time previous to this
assault on Kint, Ritter had been confined
in Jail at the instance Of his wife.-OhiO
