Rut I have extended tny rem irks further than I intended, and I must draw to a close I wish to say, however, that I want an economical government ; I want perfect security from despotism of tho Stato, and from officers, with undoubted integrity to recommend, them ; 1 want tho right of the Stato protected ; I want to see Slavery overthrown, and I want to help ovortum its power ; I want to rpo tho power of 250,000 slaveholders over .10,000,000 of people cease ; I want it acknowledged that colored people havo rights and privileges which they have not now ; I want to soo territories become the froo soil home of free labor. These aro some of tho articles of my political faith, and I call upon you to viu-dicato those principles at the ballot box. I have great hopes oven of Hamilton county redeeming herself. She gives bright promise of justifying the allusion of Governor Wood, when he referred to her as "enlightened Hamilton." (Laughter.)

CHAM SPEECH, v Thursday evening tho Kcpublicans of Cincinnati and vicinity held a largo and influential ratification meeting. Spoechcs were made by Gov. Chase, Judge Warden and Mr. Taft. The speech of Gov. Chaso wo copy irom tho Cincinnati Commercial, and we hopo it will bo published by evory Republican paper, and read by every voter in the State. It is ablo, argumentative and unanswerable. Fellow Citizens, lam not hero to-night for tho purpose of amusing you with a sounding political haranguo, but I camo to address myself to your consciences and enlightoned judg-mont I rejoice to seo you to-night. I rejoice to see tho spirit which manifestly inspires you, for I perceive bv tho expression of your upturned faces, that the people of Hamilton county feel an interest in the great issues that are now before them, and which are the bonds ol cohosion by which the great Republican nnrtv is united. I nerceive that the princi ples of liberty still animato you as when I fast addressed you, and I rejoico. It is not in the nature of the cause of human freedom to die out of the human heart. We represent tho riirhts of human liberty, the saroo prmci pies that inspired Joflerson and Jackson, and we now stand whoro we have always Blood, and always will stand, until we havo attained our ends. The election before us, it is true, is not a National election, and it is true that wo noed. not necessarily discuss .National issues, buf is also true that tho Republican party is National in its character and design, and henco, every election, bo it of State, of Court-t v or of a Town or Citv. partakes aliko of a Na. tional nature, and their results entor into all our general concerns. But I now oronoso to speak to you of facts which more immediately interest you. I am bofore you as your candidate for Governor not my own choice, 1 may justly say. uiy ambition was satisfied with one term, and had hoped to retire from the cares of ollico to dovote my time to interests of a tnvato na ture. , Yet summonod, as I was, by the unanl mous choice ofyourreprosjn'atircs in Convcn tion, I felt constrained to accept tho call of the Republican party, and 1 am here to opon to you my heart and my mind upon public questions in which you justly inamlcst deep interest. lUheors.J TUB TREASURY DEFALCATION'S. I am going to spoak to you first, of the pro. diirious hole found in the public pocket j shall toll you truly all that I know of tho robborv of tho Troasurv. which has recently developed Hsolf, and show to you where the responsibility properly belongs. A few weeks ago, in tho month of Juno, discovered, to my utter astonishmont, that ihnr wns a deficit of some 50,000 in tho Treaanrr. I had sunnosed from official re norl nf thn Legislative Investigating Com mittco. ami fmin tho Auditor, that tho money . wasallsafe in the Treasury I and Ishallshow von that it had bcon absorbed during Bres- lin's administration, and that not one dollar of il ever soiled Iho lingers of ft singlo oflicor of the Republican administration. ?

Xo legislature had snt (or two years, and the last legislature which preceded our entry into office, which was Democratic, had failed to pass laws to guard tho Treasury, and thus left it at the discretion and mercy of a singlo man. When tho Republican Legislature met in January, 1850, almost tho first thing thoy did was to nass a law cuarding and protecting tho Treasury. But upon trial it did not prove as efficient as had been anticipated. Learn ing its defects, by experience, however, when they mot nt tho adjourned session oi tins year thev enacted a new law, which required a quartorly examination by tho Governor, and also by tho Auditor. At tno regular scssiuu they had also appointed a Legislative investigating Committee, comprised of threo members, all of whom were Republicans, the Democrats having refused to permit a representa tive of their party to sorvo on tno loiummcc. They did hold a caucus and designated ono Democratic member for each ol thrco Committees, but subsequently another Democrat-caucus was held, and upon deliberation they ivIiispiI to eoiintonanco tno investigation in to tho administration of their own party, thus stablishing their fears that corruption had 1 1 . 1. .1 r. .l nvnnun cxisiuu which muy ii-urcu w . a Tho examination, howevor. was mado b1 tho Committee, and also by tho Auditor, and thoy found tho money, it was more in ino Treasury.

Ho did suggest Mr. Prentice to act in his stead, and Mr. Pren-tico (a Pro-Slavery Democrat) agreed to accept. On further consideration, however, ho adopted his party tactics, and declined to serve doubtless that thoy might havo a lairer opportunity of asserting, that whatever appear ed is a " lilacK liepubiican lie." a party oi them then got together and black-balled me. Mr. Cox was their speaker at tho meeting, ami General Joo Goiger, a Buchanan man, who immortalized himself by abusing mo last cam-painn, immortalized himself .again on that occasion by defending me. Laughter. After tho refusal of Morgan and Prcntico to servo, I thon appointed Mr. Thomas Sparrow, a member of tho Democratic party, and lato an olllcc-holder under President Pierce, and ho a gentUman of independence and character accepted, and made the investiga tion, llo has presented the facts, and they are before vou. I am told, that tho Democ racy way up on the lakes, in Payne's region, now attempt to get out of tho scinpo by say ing I am a pet ot Sparrow. 1 am sure ho is not a pet ol mino, for he has not sense enough to vote for mo. lie isn't a good enough Democrat, as I understand that designation, to vote for me, But, of tho defalcation.

On tho 15th of November (beginning of tho fiscal year) after our ticket was oUx to 1, but before wo assumed office, there was, according to Auditor W. D. Morgan, a balance iu the Treasury of $703,000. Bank debts amount-ins to Sil'J.OOO.weioalsocollectedsubsequent- lv. making a sum total in round numbers of .58.2,000. Sow, where was this money ? It is well known that tho State pays cash, and that everything should have beun cleared oil' bv tho party eoing out of power. How was it ? Wo found unpaid debts contracted for which we ha 1 to pay during tho first year, of 5517.000. when thoro ought not to have been a cent to pay. Besides this was another debt of $100,000, not paid by them. Those items naid nominally loft a lesidue of $.1.5,877. Hut where was this 1 With Wash Cones & Co., Danl. Beckel, of Dayton, and tho City Bank of Cincinnati ; and deposited with them without any security. Another sum of $23,000 Was in Breslin's pocket, which ho claimed for exchange, besides other items, which, all added together, made a deficit of about one and a qu trier million of dollars to be provided for. We had to pro-vido for it. Gibson saw that tho Cover.. ra.'iit must be sustained, and bv shifts and contrivances, already alluded to, ho concealed the delicit as long as ho could, using the evidences of debt in his custody us the basis of his negotiations. BATE OF TAXATION'. Sow for tho rate of taxation. During the Medill Adiiiinistnilion tho rate of taxation on But 1 1 tho General Levy, was threo mills and two gotten a President when Mr. Buchanan was elected. Ho has no freedom, lie is hedged in by tho minionsof slavery. Tin) slave power compasses him about. Ho is no more a free man than a negro is in Kentucky. (A voice Tell us something about Stato lights) I am bringing you to that question. 1 will show that these aggressions ofslavery encroach upon Stato Rights: that they have invaded the sovereignty ol Uluo. Seven years ago tho Democracy were the party of freedom. I was of them. They continually adopted resolutions in their meetings and conventions, denouncing slavery, and asserted their determination to resist its extension by all possible constitutional means. Gov. Wood, in his inaugural, pronounced it a thing of Stato creation; and tho Democratic Convention eulogised his administration, and endorsed his sentiments, lie held that Congress undoubtedly has tho right and ought to cannot bo considered entirely discreditable to him. Tho money was there, but the com mittee was deceived. Mr Gih-nn was elected when I was. The same confidence was reposed in him that the pcoplo reposed in mo. in lact, they reposcu mnisi (vmlldiinco in him than in me,w the Knoio Nothings had confilence in him, ana unp awn lift didn't have in me. (Laughter.)-When I discovered tho deficit Mr. Gibson absent from Columbus. It was eleven o'clock at night when ho returned. I had an interview withhiin immediately. I demanded that ho should resign. Ho did'nt want to resign. I insisted again, and no roueraieu ins disinclination for reasons tnat cannot oe considered culpable. But tho keys of the Treas ury were put in my nanus, auu wvj uiu uu. leavo my possession until ho did resign. I then nppointdnn officer in whoso integrity I havo entire confidence, and who demanded and receives the surest possiblo security from every depository of the Stato. Now respecting tha blamo that is attached to me, and for not having sooner discovered the robbery. Gibson is a man from whose appearance and character I never could have suspected of the great wrong he has committed. Auditor Morgan and Gov. Medill hd ton times as much reason to suspect Breslin of dishonesty, as I had to suspect Gibson. And they could have as easily compelled nuo to resign as I did his successor. What did thoy .In ? f Inmncl his resi.nation ? No ! At tho very first chance they had they put him on their State ticket again for the very samo office. I am obliged to talk somowhat of myself, but the nature oi" the case U my apology. I asked ms becomo ol it, 1 can't now ten you.

I believe tho best principlo to bo to 'collect money from tho poople as the expenses of the government require it. Those who have small sums to pay may pay it all at once il thoy choose. Those who wish the use of their money may pay half in January, and half in July. It is not necessary to assure you that my principles aro to administer tho government upon tho most economical plan possible, and to require the most certain security from all depositaries of the government. You have evidonco that wo havo reduced expenses, and wo have a Treasurer upon whom you can re- iy THE NATIONAL QUESTION. And now I wish to speak to you upon the trrciit Question that constantly absorbs our thou-lits. and demands our continual atten tion ami enlists our feelings. I speak of the Slavery question, and while you are thinking of Stato extravagance permit mo to go back a moment and call your attention to the City of Washington, where they are building a doino for the capitol, which will cost more than our Stato House, and two doors, which alone, will cost $ lti,(Xi0. Think fora moment over the fact that out of every ten dollars expended by the federal government, one dollar comes from tho hard labor of Ohio. Hut tho question of Slavery. I have addressed you on this great subject for many years. I havo demonstrated to you that the Federal Government, is reduced to be the despotism of a slave oligandty. The nlavo power has controlled it through political contrivances, until the time has come when the pjnplu. who havo partially hoped that tho evil would u-iir- its own cum. havo deter i'incd to apply imWi or uumout certain moiiiiicain nv they had been encouraged to expect.

Rest assured we will do everything in our power to expose tho facts. 1 had hoped that uncle nam wouiu neip out of tho dilliculty. Breslin left the coun-try. I wrote to General Cass, the Secretary qf Stato, for the purpose of obtaining the as sistance of tho government in getting possession of tho culprit, but Gen.

Tbo British government would not be apt to take sufficient interest In ureslin to retain him agaiust our wishes in her provinces. TAXATION ASD EXPESDITCRES. Ami now for another topic, in which you feel a docp interest. The Democracy say that Republicans are extravagant in expenditures, and arm us of burlbenini the people with taxes. I have done all in my power to oe economical, and have closely watched all the departments of the Stato govornraont. But yon know that the government must bo supported. You must support your courts j yon must sustain your pnblio school, your municipal, township, county, nnd Stiil-j govorn- purposcs; ;i:.i.',ui u less lor county purposes, and about $1)0,000 less for city purposes, making a total of over $700,000 less than under Democratic government. The general levy for this year is threo mills and one-tenth being a reduction, while county, townshipand municipal taxes are also reduced. But, I now tell you, that however much the Treasury has been robbed; however grievous tho burthen wo havo to carry ; however much wo may havo been plundered by Breslin, avery honest debt of the State of Ohio has been paid. MATP. HOUSE ECONOMY. Sow I shall tell you about tho Stato IIouso of which you havo heard, as you h avo of the Court Houso in Cincinnali. There has luen a littlo feathering of nests iu both places. The Medill administration estimated tho cost of a fenco around the ten aero Court House Square at a fraction less than $77,000. Mr. Piatt, who 1 appointed Commissioner of tho Stato House, savs that tho fence will be finished for less than $35,000 ! Here is a reduction of one item of $41,0001 The same administration cstimatod the cost of grading that ten acre lot at $73,500. Mr. Piatt says he will have threo sides finished this year, and the eastern side noxt yoar lor less than $1,W another saving of $1D,500. (Laughter.) DEMOCRATIC HUU-TBEASl'RV. The Democrats tell u thoy want a sul treasury.

Rut I have extended tny rem irks further than I intended, and I must draw to a close I wish to say, however, that I want an economical government ; I want perfect security from despotism of tho Stato, and from officers, with undoubted integrity to recommend, them ; 1 want tho right of the Stato protected ; I want to see Slavery overthrown, and I want to help ovortum its power ; I want to rpo tho power of 250,000 slaveholders over .10,000,000 of people cease ; I want it acknowledged that colored people havo rights and privileges which they have not now ; I want to soo territories become the froo soil home of free labor. These aro some of tho articles of my political faith, and I call upon you to viu-dicato those principles at the ballot box. I have great hopes oven of Hamilton county redeeming herself. She gives bright promise of justifying the allusion of Governor Wood, when he referred to her as "enlightened Hamilton." (Laughter.) I want to see Hamilton county doing as she did three years ago, and I believe she will join the balance of thd Slate in a lopting Republican sentiments, lint there is a trnntleman here to-niht front Columbus ; a gentleman who voted for Bit-jchanan; but who never adopted tho Drod Seolt decision as an article of his faith ; but I who, when he s:w tho Douglas, Nebraska, I Died Scott Convention, assembled at Colum bus, like Daniel of old, he could not bow to the idol.

CHAM SPEECH, v Thursday evening tho Kcpublicans of Cincinnati and vicinity held a largo and influential ratification meeting. Spoechcs were made by Gov. Chase, Judge Warden and Mr. Taft. The speech of Gov. Chaso wo copy irom tho Cincinnati Commercial, and we hopo it will bo published by evory Republican paper, and read by every voter in the State. It is ablo, argumentative and unanswerable. Fellow Citizens, lam not hero to-night for tho purpose of amusing you with a sounding political haranguo, but I camo to address myself to your consciences and enlightoned judg-mont I rejoice to seo you to-night. I rejoice to see tho spirit which manifestly inspires you, for I perceive bv tho expression of your upturned faces, that the people of Hamilton county feel an interest in the great issues that are now before them, and which are the bonds ol cohosion by which the great Republican nnrtv is united. I nerceive that the princi ples of liberty still animato you as when I fast addressed you, and I rejoico. It is not in the nature of the cause of human freedom to die out of the human heart. We represent tho riirhts of human liberty, the saroo prmci pies that inspired Joflerson and Jackson, and we now stand whoro we have always Blood, and always will stand, until we havo attained our ends. The election before us, it is true, is not a National election, and it is true that wo noed. not necessarily discuss .National issues, buf is also true that tho Republican party is National in its character and design, and henco, every election, bo it of State, of Court-t v or of a Town or Citv. partakes aliko of a Na. tional nature, and their results entor into all our general concerns. But I now oronoso to speak to you of facts which more immediately interest you. I am bofore you as your candidate for Governor not my own choice, 1 may justly say. uiy ambition was satisfied with one term, and had hoped to retire from the cares of ollico to dovote my time to interests of a tnvato na ture. , Yet summonod, as I was, by the unanl mous choice ofyourreprosjn'atircs in Convcn tion, I felt constrained to accept tho call of the Republican party, and 1 am here to opon to you my heart and my mind upon public questions in which you justly inamlcst deep interest. lUheors.J TUB TREASURY DEFALCATION'S. I am going to spoak to you first, of the pro. diirious hole found in the public pocket j shall toll you truly all that I know of tho robborv of tho Troasurv. which has recently developed Hsolf, and show to you where the responsibility properly belongs. A few weeks ago, in tho month of Juno, discovered, to my utter astonishmont, that ihnr wns a deficit of some 50,000 in tho Treaanrr. I had sunnosed from official re norl nf thn Legislative Investigating Com mittco. ami fmin tho Auditor, that tho money . wasallsafe in the Treasury I and Ishallshow von that it had bcon absorbed during Bres- lin's administration, and that not one dollar of il ever soiled Iho lingers of ft singlo oflicor of the Republican administration. ?

Xo legislature had snt (or two years, and the last legislature which preceded our entry into office, which was Democratic, had failed to pass laws to guard tho Treasury, and thus left it at the discretion and mercy of a singlo man. When tho Republican Legislature met in January, 1850, almost tho first thing thoy did was to nass a law cuarding and protecting tho Treasury. But upon trial it did not prove as efficient as had been anticipated. Learn ing its defects, by experience, however, when they mot nt tho adjourned session oi tins year thev enacted a new law, which required a quartorly examination by tho Governor, and also by tho Auditor. At tno regular scssiuu they had also appointed a Legislative investigating Committee, comprised of threo members, all of whom were Republicans, the Democrats having refused to permit a representa tive of their party to sorvo on tno loiummcc. They did hold a caucus and designated ono Democratic member for each ol thrco Committees, but subsequently another Democrat-caucus was held, and upon deliberation they ivIiispiI to eoiintonanco tno investigation in to tho administration of their own party, thus stablishing their fears that corruption had 1 1 . 1. .1 r. .l nvnnun cxisiuu which muy ii-urcu w . a Tho examination, howevor. was mado b1 tho Committee, and also by tho Auditor, and thoy found tho money, it was more in ino Treasury.

Ho did suggest Mr. Prentice to act in his stead, and Mr. Pren-tico (a Pro-Slavery Democrat) agreed to accept. On further consideration, however, ho adopted his party tactics, and declined to serve doubtless that thoy might havo a lairer opportunity of asserting, that whatever appear ed is a " lilacK liepubiican lie." a party oi them then got together and black-balled me. Mr. Cox was their speaker at tho meeting, ami General Joo Goiger, a Buchanan man, who immortalized himself by abusing mo last cam-painn, immortalized himself .again on that occasion by defending me.

After tho refusal of Morgan and Prcntico to servo, I thon appointed Mr. Thomas Sparrow, a member of tho Democratic party, and lato an olllcc-holder under President Pierce, and ho a gentUman of independence and character accepted, and made the investiga tion, llo has presented the facts, and they are before vou.

On tho 15th of November (beginning of tho fiscal year) after our ticket was oUx to 1, but before wo assumed office, there was, according to Auditor W. D. Morgan, a balance iu the Treasury of $703,000. Bank debts amount-ins to Sil'J.OOO.weioalsocollectedsubsequent- lv. making a sum total in round numbers of .58.2,000. Sow, where was this money ? It is well known that tho State pays cash, and that everything should have beun cleared oil' bv tho party eoing out of power. How was it ? Wo found unpaid debts contracted for which we ha 1 to pay during tho first year, of 5517.000. when thoro ought not to have been a cent to pay. Besides this was another debt of $100,000, not paid by them. Those items naid nominally loft a lesidue of $.1.5,877. Hut where was this 1 With Wash Cones & Co., Danl. Beckel, of Dayton, and tho City Bank of Cincinnati ; and deposited with them without any security. Another sum of $23,000 Was in Breslin's pocket, which ho claimed for exchange, besides other items, which, all added together, made a deficit of about one and a qu trier million of dollars to be provided for. We had to pro-vido for it. Gibson saw that tho Cover.. ra.'iit must be sustained, and bv shifts and contrivances, already alluded to, ho concealed the delicit as long as ho could, using the evidences of debt in his custody us the basis of his negotiations. BATE OF TAXATION'. Sow for tho rate of taxation.

Ho has no freedom, lie is hedged in by tho minionsof slavery. Tin) slave power compasses him about. Ho is no more a free man than a negro is in Kentucky. (A voice Tell us something about Stato lights) I am bringing you to that question. 1 will show that these aggressions ofslavery encroach upon Stato Rights: that they have invaded the sovereignty ol Uluo. Seven years ago tho Democracy were the party of freedom. I was of them. They continually adopted resolutions in their meetings and conventions, denouncing slavery, and asserted their determination to resist its extension by all possible constitutional means. Gov. Wood, in his inaugural, pronounced it a thing of Stato creation; and tho Democratic Convention eulogised his administration, and endorsed his sentiments, lie held that Congress undoubtedly has tho right and ought to cannot bo considered entirely discreditable to him. Tho money was there, but the com mittee was deceived. Mr Gih-nn was elected when I was. The same confidence was reposed in him that the pcoplo reposed in mo. in lact, they reposcu mnisi (vmlldiinco in him than in me,w the Knoio Nothings had confilence in him, ana unp awn lift didn't have in me. (Laughter.)-When I discovered tho deficit Mr. Gibson absent from Columbus. It was eleven o'clock at night when ho returned. I had an interview withhiin immediately. I demanded that ho should resign. Ho did'nt want to resign. I insisted again, and no roueraieu ins disinclination for reasons tnat cannot oe considered culpable. But tho keys of the Treas ury were put in my nanus, auu wvj uiu uu. leavo my possession until ho did resign. I then nppointdnn officer in whoso integrity I havo entire confidence, and who demanded and receives the surest possiblo security from every depository of the Stato. Now respecting tha blamo that is attached to me, and for not having sooner discovered the robbery. Gibson is a man from whose appearance and character I never could have suspected of the great wrong he has committed. Auditor Morgan and Gov. Medill hd ton times as much reason to suspect Breslin of dishonesty, as I had to suspect Gibson. And they could have as easily compelled nuo to resign as I did his successor. What did thoy .In ? f Inmncl his resi.nation ? No ! At tho very first chance they had they put him on their State ticket again for the very samo office.

I believe tho best principlo to bo to 'collect money from tho poople as the expenses of the government require it. Those who have small sums to pay may pay it all at once il thoy choose. Those who wish the use of their money may pay half in January, and half in July. It is not necessary to assure you that my principles aro to administer tho government upon tho most economical plan possible, and to require the most certain security from all depositaries of the government. You have evidonco that wo havo reduced expenses, and wo have a Treasurer upon whom you can re- iy THE NATIONAL QUESTION. And now I wish to speak to you upon the trrciit Question that constantly absorbs our thou-lits. and demands our continual atten tion ami enlists our feelings. I speak of the Slavery question, and while you are thinking of Stato extravagance permit mo to go back a moment and call your attention to the City of Washington, where they are building a doino for the capitol, which will cost more than our Stato House, and two doors, which alone, will cost $ lti,(Xi0. Think fora moment over the fact that out of every ten dollars expended by the federal government, one dollar comes from tho hard labor of Ohio. Hut tho question of Slavery. I have addressed you on this great subject for many years. I havo demonstrated to you that the Federal Government, is reduced to be the despotism of a slave oligandty. The nlavo power has controlled it through political contrivances, until the time has come when the pjnplu. who havo partially hoped that tho evil would u-iir- its own cum. havo deter i'incd to apply imWi or uumout certain moiiiiicain nv they had been encouraged to expect. The j 1 ho Cleveland nnn iw (.wem.; tt men tho Kansas Sebraska Act and the ' said Jtldgo Kanney would " liud it hard sled- uiidertha perfect contiolol Mr. O. VV.

Mr. Dodge commenced tho ascent, beckoning tho steed to follow, without oven a lino or string to indicato the direction.

At this moment tho consternation was great; but for the presence ol the Yankeo himself, who sung mil ''all right" thoro would, no doubt, have been a rush to thesccno completely capsizing success.

Rest assured we will do everything in our power to expose tho facts. 1 had hoped that uncle nam wouiu neip out of tho dilliculty. Breslin left the coun-try. I wrote to General Cass, the Secretary qf Stato, for the purpose of obtaining the as sistance of tho government in getting possession of tho culprit, but Gen.

Tbo British government would not be apt to take sufficient interest In ureslin to retain him agaiust our wishes in her provinces. TAXATION ASD EXPESDITCRES. Ami now for another topic, in which you feel a docp interest. The Democracy say that Republicans are extravagant in expenditures, and arm us of burlbenini the people with taxes. I have done all in my power to oe economical, and have closely watched all the departments of the Stato govornraont. But yon know that the government must bo supported. You must support your courts j yon must sustain your pnblio school, your municipal, township, county, nnd Stiil-j govorn- purposcs; ;i:.i.',ui u less lor county purposes, and about $1)0,000 less for city purposes, making a total of over $700,000 less than under Democratic government. The general levy for this year is threo mills and one-tenth being a reduction, while county, townshipand municipal taxes are also reduced. But, I now tell you, that however much the Treasury has been robbed; however grievous tho burthen wo havo to carry ; however much wo may havo been plundered by Breslin, avery honest debt of the State of Ohio has been paid. MATP. HOUSE ECONOMY. Sow I shall tell you about tho Stato IIouso of which you havo heard, as you h avo of the Court Houso in Cincinnali. There has luen a littlo feathering of nests iu both places. The Medill administration estimated tho cost of a fenco around the ten aero Court House Square at a fraction less than $77,000. Mr. Piatt, who 1 appointed Commissioner of tho Stato House, savs that tho fence will be finished for less than $35,000 ! Here is a reduction of one item of $41,0001 The same administration cstimatod the cost of grading that ten acre lot at $73,500. Mr. Piatt says he will have threo sides finished this year, and the eastern side noxt yoar lor less than $1,W another saving of $1D,500. (Laughter.) DEMOCRATIC HUU-TBEASl'RV.
