Updegraf OF the present members only
Mr.. Neal voted at any stage of the proceed
ings on the resumption repeal bill with the
soft money men, and be was not always with
them. The new members are all hard-money
men, whereas Messrs. Gardner, Jones and
Van Worries of the present delegation voted
for the repeal bill. II therefore appears that
whereas repeal was supported by eight demo
Gratis and four republicans in the present
house, there will be at the most but eleven
democrats and one republican as soft-money
men in the next house. The hard-money
cause has, therefore, suffered nothing in Ohio
by Tuesdays election. Probably it has
gained, by the stifiening it has impaired to
the backs OF one or two waycrers, and very
likely Mr.. Neal will no longer cast his vote
with Gen. Ewing.
