Editor of Eaton Democrat:
The committee having under con-
sideration the bill recognizing the
Penitentiary, held a long session en-
Tuesday evening, and after making
sundry amendments, in detail mere
", reported the same to the Senate
and recommended its passage. The
provisions for reform of the convicts
we're reported to the committee,
which in substance were adopted, but
it vas thought they required further
consideration to perfect them in de
tail, and so it was considered best to
incorporate them in a supplementary
bill, which will be done early next
week.
On Wednesday the further loan Of
ten millions, for the construction of
"the Cincinnati Southern Railway"
came up for consideration, and Sen
ator Reese offered an amendment
that it should be submitted to a vote
of the city, before the Bonds were
issued. Upon this amendment. q
debate sprung up which consumed
