responded to the toast "a century of
civilization" in his happy style; not
confning himself to any one century
but contrasting the civilizations Of the
world-ancient and modern, pagan and
Christian. The great central idea of
pagan civilization was founded on cast ;
men were born in cast no effort of
theirs could even relieve them from
their position. Christian civilization is
founded upon the great central idea of
perfect equality before the law. These
two classes of civilization started in their
race across our continent. The result is
now written in indelible characters. "a
modern newspaper" was responded to
by the editor of the Toledo Blade.
Speaker Lampson responded to the
toast the "Social Side of Politics." in q
happy manner. Mr.. Alberry responded
to the toast the "Board Of Trade"
General Hurst replied to the toast the
"Ohio Centennial" in his usual candid
style. "The host and his guests" was
responded to by Judge Owen. To say
he was jolly and convulsed the

His style is inimitable.
Mr.. McSweeney, one Of the able attor-

COLUMBUS, O., March 10, 'ss.
On Ground Hog Day the House had
jolly tilt on the ground hog question.
The bill reached the Senate on the 9th,
when Senatorial dignity was relaxed, and
after Q jolly tilt the bill with some
amendments was passed. While every
effort has been made to cut down ex.
penses to the lowest possible margin,
many claims presented were entirely
ignored. The centennials to be held at
Marietta, Cincinnati and Columbus each
asked for appropriations from the State,
but none was appropriated. The Legis-
lature, through the Governor, extended
Invitations to the governors and official
dignitaries Of many of the States to be
present at said centennial. A bill was
introduced to appropriate ten thousand
dollars for the purpose of entertaining
such guests. Mr.. Rawlins and Mr.. Bar
ger made determinated effort to defeat
or cut down the bill, which failed. Mr..
Rawlins then got even with the follow
ing resolutions:
WHERRAs, Ohio il the most resplen-
dent star in the milky way OF States,
and, whereas, there is nothing in the
Sate treasury, therefore be it yesolued,
lst. That q committee Of six on the
part of the House and three on the part
Of the Senate be appointed to spend it.
I'd. That whoever desires the chair

81. That the balance of said funds be
divided pro rata between the Cincinnati,
8 Columbus, Marietta and other centennial
zth. That inasmuch as no appropriation
has been made for the Board Of State
Charities the residue be paid to the same.
sth. That II there be any deficiency
the same be assessed upon the traffic Of
tntoxicating liquors, whether the same
be distilled, malt or vinous.
1th. That II after all these efforts, the
finances OF the State remain unadjusted,
