COAL MINERS PETITION.
Senator Woodwork, on Thursday,
presented a petition from some fifteen
hundred miners in the coal regions Of
northern Ohio, asking for the passage
Of a law to provide for the better ven
tiIstion Of coal mines and for the bet
ter protection Of the lives Of miners
a bill making the necessary provi-
sion will be introduced in a few days.
So far as the ventilation of the mines
and protection to the life and health
Of the miner is involved, there should
not, and probably will not be much,
if any opposition to the bill; butitis
not so certain that the sections pro
viding for several inspectors, at q sal
airy Of 5000 per annum, each, will
not jeopardize the success Of the bill.
1t will be the aim Of the friends Of
the measure to put it in as unObjec-
tiOnable a shape as possible, and with
a proper regard for the rights alike OF
operators and operatives, and to avoid
as far as possible, the creation Of new
and expensive offices. Mr.. Roy, OF
Liberty, and Mr.. Lewis, Of Weathers-
field, have been here for some days
looking after the miners bill.
SUDDEN DEATH OF COL. YOUNG.
On Friday afternoon, at about three
O'Clock, the House was startled by the
announcement that one Of its mem
bers, Hon. G. I. Young, of COlum.
biana county, was lying in the Comp,
t~roller's Office in a dying condition.
Mr.. Young had for years been afflicted
with pulmonary complaint, but fol
several months past had felt improved
in health, although far from being
robust. On Friday forenoon he was
in his seat in the House, and said
he felt rather better than usual. On
coming to the State House, after din
ner, he, in company with another
gentleman, came in at the south en-
trance, and a flight Of steps was
assembled, the effort apparently caus-
ing a sudden attack Of hemOrrhage
Of the lungs. He was taken to the
Controllers Office, where he threw
ND at least two or three quarts OF
blood, causing him to sink very rap
idly, and in twenty minutes more be
breathed his last. The House imme-
diately adjourned, and q committee
was appointed to take charge OF the
body and make arrangements for the
funeral. On Saturday a joint COM
mittee Of the Senate and House, act
ing as pail bearers and escort, accom-
panied the remains Of u much
lamented friend to his late home in
New Lisbon, where the funeral took
place on Sunday last. Col. Young
was editor Of the Buckeye State news
paper, and a writer of ability He
was indeed a very kind and agreeable
gentleman. His manners were quiet
and u~nobtrusive, and he was univer-
sally esteemed by all his fellow mem
bers in the Legislature. He was aged
about forty-four year, and leave;
a wife and daughter 70 mourn his
death.

THE WEATHER.

a snow storm broke loose here on
last Tuesday, and furnished the best
sleighing the denizens Of this city
have enjoyed for years, and it is not
much Of a snow either. There has
been very little rain in all this region
OF the State for six months past and
as a consequence the streams are low
and water is scarce, and probably
nothing is more sincerely desired by
the people generally than an album
dance of rain.

lBOUT FISH,

~ AAlA4 AA04A 4lLA AAAAAAAlNAeNN4N
ABOUT FISH.
A bill has been offered which pro-
poses to make it a Unable offence in
a sum not LEES than five nor more
than one hundred and fifty dollars, to
catch fish in our creeks or rivers, by
net, seine, or any such Continuance,
or by poisoning the waters Of streams.
The hook and line will be the only
weapons Of warfare permitted to be
sed against the fnny tribe. Under
such a law all our streams would soon
swarm with fine fish. Another bin
on the fish question has just become
3 law. 1t is generally well known
that since streams have been OBJ
structed with dams, the migration Of
ash from the lake and the Ohio river,
mp the streams and into the interior
Of the State has been almost wholly
checked. This law provides for the
construction Of shutes at the breast of
dams, Of such form and in such man
ner as viii enable fish to ascend to
the dams and to work themselves up
the streams in the spring of the year.
A law similar to this has been tried
in some Of the Eastern States, and is
reported to work advantageously, the
brooks and creeks being rapidly re-
populated with fish, thereby adding
to the food resources Of the people.
COMPULSORY EDUCATION.
Nj. Cessna, q talented young Demo
cratic member Of the House, from
Hardin county, is Of the belief that
there are too many children debarred
the privileges of our free common
schools. He introduced a bill last ses-
sion, OF this subject, but it was voted
down. It was, however. more popu-
lar with Republicans than Democrats,
Undismayed by the mishap of las;
winter, the author has repaired his bill
and r~eintrodueed it this session; but
apprehend it will not stand much
better chance for getting on the stat.
ute book than at the previous session
The bill provides that it shall be til,
duty Of parents and guardians Of chill
dren between the ages Of seven ait
fourteen years, residing in any sehoo
district In the State Of Ohio, wherein
common school or schools are laugh
free, to send their children or ward
70 said school or schools during tn.
time said schools are Kept free, 70
twelve weeks in each year, which
twelve weeks shall be consecutive
provided there are such common
school or schools Taught free for tina
period in the school district wherein
such children may reside; in sehOO
districts wherein schools are laugh
free for more than twelve weeks il
any n year, then said parents o.
guardians may select the term Il
which they will send their children
or wards. No parents or guardians
shall be compelled TO send their chill
dreR or wards to any common sehoo
STbo hsye provided competent pri
Iate instruction for their children o.
wards.
A violation of the law, by parents
or guardians, shall be held g misde
meanor, and a conviction shall sub
ject the offender to a fine Of not les
than ten or more than fifty dollars, o.
imprisonment in Jail not over twenty
days, or both, at the discretion Of tn
court, until the fine is paid. How

The National Finances.

The public debt statement shows that dur.
ing the month Of February the national liza.
bilities have decreased s7,3l7 500 0s, being
s3,276,033 in excess of the reduction for
January. The total decrease for the year
ending Feb -, 1871, has been sll7Gl0,-
$50 %, showing an average monthly redue-
ton Of s0S0l ,63j So. We have, says the
N. Y. Times, become so accustomed to these
successive reductions that we seldom pause to
consider how rapidly the absolute burden Of
our national debt has sunk during the present
Administration. At the beginning Of his
term, President Grant found debt which
amounted to s73 per head Of the population.
After two years Of honest collection Of reve.
nue., cooperating with aud assisting the nat.
ural expansyeness Of our population aud
resources its volume has been reduced 10 SCI
per head. The third year of the present adj
ministration opens with total of public dob.
including principal and interest, aud deduct.
ing the cash in the Treasury, amounting to
S2,32O,70S,S46 92, This represents a sum
three hundred millions less than the national
debt Of France before the war, and fully six.
