Small Bill and Small l.erinlation. The Ohio Legislature passed a bill last Eriday prohibiting the circulation of foreign bank notea within the State of lesa denomination than $10.

So heavy is the Bank taxation, that bankias capital is leavin" that State and seeking our own. The Banks are being driven out ofthat State, aud confidence fast being destroyed in those that remain. Now, it appears the Legislature has passed a bill prohibiting the circulation of foreign bank notes within the State of less denomination than $10.

cinnati, one day list week, and promptly cashed. Nobody blames the brokers, but there is something to blame in the financial condition of things in Ohio at the present time, of which this is one of the results. It is entirely useless for Ohio to attempt to carry out any such small bill law as this. Other States, better prepared for the task, have vainly attempted it. If by some hocuspocua the Ohio Legislature could be transferred to the Lunatic Asylum building, and the lunatics sweated in the Capitol, and told by their keepers to make laws for the great State, there is no question but they would dj better for the interests placed in their charge, ten-fold over, than has the Locofoco legislature of the last five years.

Ilia letters are all read with great interest, and w are glad to receive a promise from him that these letters will be more frequent. We also publish a letter from New Orleans.

It is with great gratification we receive news from all quarters that the prospect for a good crop of every kind of fruit, is still excellent. North and East, but comparatively lit tie fruit of sny description has been killed. The crop of peaches will undoubtedly be very large, and apples the same.

Frary, the publisher of the Warrick Democrat, and his readers, on the enlargement and general improved appearance of that well known paper. As there are some Democrats in Warrick and neighboring counties who won't look at anything else than a Locofoco paper, we recommeud the Warrick Democrat to them. It is neatly printed, and in every prominent par - ucuiar a jfoou euougn paper lor any JJemc erat to read. Jim.

For eight or ten days prior to last Monday, the supporters of Nebraakuism in the House of Representatives were making all their arrangements for carrying a Nebrnska bill, that is, some sort of Nebrnska bill, with a rush, through that body. There was doubt wheth er they would try to carry the Senate bill or some other bill that might be got up for the occasion, but, that there was to be a regular coup d'etat upon the day in question was ro giirded by the Nebraskians as a fixed fart. The day came, however, and the Nebraska bill was backed out. They found that the major ty was against them, and that, if they were to make a movement, they and their bill would be regularly drubbed.

Uttention at present, nnu the number of worha of that character now in contemplation, give evidence of the confidence monied men huve in the yet undiscovered werJth of California. The inrv in the case of Col. H. P. Watkins, recently tried in the U. S. I)itrict Court lor violation ol the U. S Neutrality Laws, yesterday rendered a verdict 01 yuuiy and recommended the prisoner to tne mercy w m - . . a ol the Court. The sentence of the Court will be pronounced on the 7th day of A pril next. What no other state in the Uiion could do, California has done. No Court on the Atlantic border could convict a Burr, a Quitman, a Henderson, or an O'Sullivan all princes of Fillibusterism. And yet California has convicted a Watkina. However, ihe jury have recommended him to the clemency of the Court, and I sincerely hope in his case justice may be tempered with mercy. There have been charges of great inhumanity broniht against Walker but I c.-.nnot hear that Watkins has behaved otherwise th;n as a chivalrous, brave man. His soleofience is Fillibustering. What Americans generally are to other nations, so are the mixed people of California to Eastern Americans themselves. All the progressive characteristics of the natives of the Atlantic States are on the Ptcific carried out to excess. Americans, and particularly those in California, are not altogether devoted to mony; they often-limes love change and excitement better. They will overlook the fairest prospect? close nt hand, to seek (or inferior ones at a distance A new land is to them a charmed land. They will seek and know its quali'ies or perish in the attempt.

And great races they were, too! For time, two of them were never equaled. The first of these was a contest of four miles and repeat, between the Louisiana horse Lecompte and the Kentucky horse Lexington, (both sired by Boston) in which L 'compte won, making the two heats in the astonishing sh'jrt time of 7 minutes 26 seconds, and seven minim t es 'and 33 seconds, and closely pressed by Lexington all the time.. The other was a three mile heat between Arrow, another of Boston's cults, and Little Flea, by Grey Eagle.
