nifty to hear from his constituency, and
it they so desired. might possibly have
1mething to do with changing biz
course in the future. This was rather
thin, but the bait was swallowed by
some Of Wheeling's warmest friends, as
the vote will show.
Mr.: Davenport hoped that the bill
would not be postponed, but would be
voted on and passed to its third read.

the ayes and noes, and the motion to

The Charleston people feel good over
the postponement and say that it is q
test vote, with one or two exceptions.
In this, however, they are mistaken.
The only consolation they can derive
from the vote is, that they have gained
little more time. 81
House bill No. 3, "a bill to establish
County Court and a Board Of Com
missioners tor the county of Ohio,
under the thirty-tourth section OF the
eighth Article Of the Constitution" was
reported by the Judiciary Committee,
and under suspension Of rules was
passed. The bill provides for an cleo.
ton to be held on Monday. the 23d day
of December, for the election Of Com
missioners. have not had an oppor
tunity to examine the bill. as it mas not
been printed, and consequently am ig-
norant as to its provisions or merits.
Mr.. Bridges offered resolution to day
instructing the Committee on Education
to enquire into the expediencv of pro-
vidiug bill to establish uniform tax
alton Tor tree school purposes through
out the State, and to dispense with
township taxation for the same. This
m ode for collecting school taxes would
be very nice thing for poor counties.
but would be rather rough on the rich
ones. There is no danger Of bill Of
that character ever being passed by the
present Legislature.
Senate bill No 4, to extend the time
for ascertaining aud certifying the re-
suit OF the election held on the 24lh
day OF October, for Representatives in
the Congress Of the United States, was
read for the first time. Mr. Bradford
moved to suspend the rules in order
that it might be read second, and in
a 'ew remarks showed the urgency OF
prompt action. The Republicans and
two or three Jacob Democrats opposed
the suspension OF the rules. and the
motion was lost by a strict party vote. %
Nothing Of interest was done in the
Senate to-day. The Pannell-Cun-
ningham case comes up for considera
ton tomorrow. A good deal of inter.
est is manifested in this matter, and
there will probably be warm discussion

PARIS. Dec, 15.-In the Assembly
yesterday, NJ. Duval sad the PETITIONS
Tor dissolution were the work Of agIta-
tors. NJ. Gambetta justified the pro-
posal for dissolution on the ground
that the country did not acknowledge
the constitutional power Of the Assem-
bly,. The sentiment OF the country on
this question was unmistakable. He
defied the Monarchists to establish
a Moarchy. A warm and lengthy
debate took place on the dissolution
question. which continued until recess
The discussion was resumed In this
afternoons session. >
In the Assembly last night the de-
bate on tie proposal to dissolve was
,ntinued at length. The question OF
receiving the petitions was warmly ar
gued, the Right contending that thev
should be set aside as being informal,
expressing the sentiments OF body ol
agitators only and not OF community,
The Lett strongly urged that the pell'
tions be received. asserting that their
contents were upheld by indications
from every part OF the country tavorIng
dissolution. A vote was taken and the
Assembly, by vote o. 49O ayai ct 2Oi,
set aside the petitions and proceeded to
the order Of the day.

LETTER FROM LEETOWN.
Sept. %. 1872

The Woods Meeting at Leetown, was
held on the 18th and 18th inst Rev.
j. +. Ockerman conducted the services
without any ministerial assistance. His
sermon on Sabbath morning was grand
and impressive, and delivered in Ian
guage comprehensive by children Us
well as adults. The subject OF the dis
course was The Humiliation and Exal-
tation of Christ The day was almost
too cold for outdoor preaching, yet the
audience, ut each service, were very at
tentive listeners, and it is to be hoped
some at least were protited bywhat they
heard. Nightly religious services are
still held at the School-house, and have
been well attended notice that there
is less disorder Mt these meetings, than
we have been accustomed to see at sim
liar places in this vicinity. Mr.. Ocker-
man preached every night during the
past week, except Wednesday night,
when he was relieved by Rev. Jesse
Porter, of the Virginia Conference, and
Saturday night when no services were
held. Rev. Mr. Porter preached yester-
day, morning and evening. Several
persons have been at the altar as seekers
of salvation.
Rev. Mr.. Miskimmon, Of the Metho-
dist Protestant Church, has been hold
ing series OF meetings during the
week, in Middleway, and the services
are announced for the remainder OF this
week.

The meeting here will be continued

Rev. Mr. Porter preached last night
from the text, "Sirs, what must | do to
be saved ?" 1t was the best sermon |

has also been assisting Rev. Miskimmon
at the meeting in Middleway.
