The Senate yesterday passed a bill in troduced by Senator DaUQHSrtt de signed to prevent the unnecessary accu mulation of money , in the public treas ury by changing the mode of collecting taxes. It requires the division of each county into five collection diatricU.by the oammissionera, and provides for the col lection of the first hall of the taxes In these districta consecutively in the I months of October, November, Decem ber, January and February respectively, I closing on the 20th of each month, and tha eeeoud half in the mouths of J April, Mar. Jane, July and August. The months of March and September are left for closing the books, the necessary changes being made in the laws regulating the semi-annual and annual settlement to adapt them to these changes in collection. The prinoipal object of the bill ia to relieve the stringency that is now felt all ever the State, twice a yean at tax paying time. , - TBI . CITY. ILICTian. f - The city and township election on Monday next has elicited very little discussion, and there will probably be alight vote polled. Trustee of the Water-Works ia'aa office of considerable responsibility, and the Democratic candidate, Mr. Rich-aJto Nxviks has acceptably filled the of fice for the past two years. Some 'attempts were t made six or eight months ago to throw, discredit open the Board of Trustees, but a foil Investigation showed them to have ' acted with due regard te tha interests of tax -payers and securing aa ample supply of water. . This attempt to create a prejudice met with an emphatic explosion. The facta were entirely sensational, and not reliable at that. Mr. NsTiNg.. wa have no dnnfrt, will be elect ed by a handsome maj xity. ' Mr.BMUaxiK F. Bowkm, the Demo ratio candidate for City Engineer, is a highly competent surveyor. ! He has held the office for two years, and there is no doubt of bis success on Monday. He ia one of the best, if not the very best snr-vsyors in Columbus. ..These two officers comprise all the city officials to be elected;- hut i addition there are township officers, eonncilmen and assessors.' -There are important offl-aea in ward and city aflairr, and every effort should be made to aecure the election of first-class officials. UBIBAL nB?t7BI.ICANS. J-IhaJTorld -of Thursday, changes its front in regard to -the Liberal Rapubli-eana,in the course of some representations as to the Conneetiout election next Man-day. "If Jewzix is dofoatod," the World eonoludea, "it will be by no help of the Liberal Bepnlicang; Jt will be an nnaid- ed Demooratie victory. It ia too late for the Liberal Republicans to do anything now whioh would have a feather's weight on the result, They have lost a chance. invaluable if they had improved it, of ' demonstrating their power, and making themselves feared by one side, courted by tie other.and respected by both.

It Hcbbied is elected ' in Connecticut, no thanks to them; his election will be accepted by the Demo-' eratio party as a proof of its own inherent, indomitable aliength. If Jkwrix is elected, the Liberal Republican lead-era will show themselvea more puellani- moos (if that be possible) than they have aJmadv. and aknlk back into the Grant camp.

' And to conclude with, the metropolitan oracle declaims that "the Democratic party will waste no more breath on the liberal Republican leaders, but will hereafter appeal directly to the people. Our appeals will hereafter be made to the honest mass of voters; and with a liberal platform and some such man as Charles Francis Adams or Judge David .Davis aa tha candidate, we can probably get as many Republican votes . as ws could have done through a Cincinnati alliance."

Schurs asked whether the Marquis knew of any persona holding official positions in this country wno bare naa communication witn tne French Government, or private persons, about the matter. 1 he Marquis replied : He did not know; and on further exam ination aaid, about a year ago he gave the namee of General lugalls and U.

Kb i no- Senator Daugherty's bill to prevent the unnecessary accumulation of money in the publio treasuries, waa taken np, and tbe qaestsen being on the passage of tha bill, . Mr. Dan chert v said that, aooording to the best information he could obtain, the circulating medium in Ohio was abont rorty million dollars. Under tbe existing law for tbe collection of taxes, one-third of this amount was required to be looked p.eemi-anuBally in the publio treasur ies, ilia operated to greatly onpple business, and was the evil against which the bill was framed to guard. Mr. Daugher- ty then explained the purport and operation of the bill, ii passed into a law. After some remarks by Mr. Bell, in ref erence to the details of the bill and ex planations by Mr. Daugherty.Mr. Howard expressed his satisfaction with the provisions of the bill, as it would leave a large amount of money in the hands of the people now locked up in tbe publio treasuries. Mr. uage toox a similar view of tbe bill, and waa in favor of its passage. After a discussion between Messrs. Nash and Daugherty as to the time of set tlement with treasurers fixed by the bill, Mr. Jones of Licking, stated objections to the bill, founded chiefly on real or alleged cumpiiua.iuuB iu iu uebaiia. jur. &uox, . : . j . i -1 . a r . t while admitting the dimculty of requir ing all the people of a county to pay their taxes at the same time.could not sea how tha evil would be generally remedied bv the pending bill. He objected to the bill that under it money would remain long er in the State Treasury than nnder the present law. Mr. Wright was a member of the House when the law antborizing the semi annual collection of taxes was nnder discussion. The same objections were urged against that measure as are now urged against the present bill. Bnt that law had stood the test of time. The pending Dill was a measure looking in the same direotion. Mr. Gage replied to some objections made by Mr. Knox, and Mr. Beach nrged that early in the winter and summer was the best time for his constituents to pay taxes, and it would operate hard on them to require them to pay of tener. Mr. Boesel, though in favor of the bill personally, considered himself instructed to vote against it. Mr. Howard, though admitting that it might sometimes be difficult for farmers, stook-raisers and wool-growers to pay taxes at other times than now required, yet was disposed to try the operation of the proposed system, believing that upon the whole it would be benefloial. Mr. Holden ex pressed himself in favor of the bill. Mr. Gardner said that the leading ob ject of the bill was a good one. He felt disposed to favor tbe bin, leaving defects in details to be corrected hereafter. The bill was passed by the following vote: Yeas Messrs. Beavis, Brinsmade. Daugherty, Gage, Gardner, Bardeaty, Hart, Holden, Howard. Morris, Murphy, Newman, Parker, Sohiff, Smith, Stimson, Updegraff, Wright, Young 19. Nays Messrs. Beach, Bell, Boesel, Jones of Licking. Jones of Trumbull, Knox, Leeds, Nash, Sayler, Thompson, Wales-U. Absent or not voting Messrs. Amos, Casement, Jenner. McDowell, Patrick, Putnam 6. The bill as amended and passed by the Senate ia in brief: It requires tbe com missioners of each count; to divide the oounty into five collection districts, and provides for the collection of the first half of the taxes in these districts consecutively in the months of October. November, December, January and Febru ary respectively, closing on the 2Uth oi each month, and the second half in the months of April, May, June, July and August. The months of March and September are left for the closing of books, the necessary changes being made in the laws regulating the semi-annual and an nual settlements to adapt them to these changes in collection. The bill farther provides that when the time tor collection in each distriot ends, the County Treasurer is required on the order of the Auditor of State to pay over to the State Treasurer the taxes collected in such dis trict for State purposes, as near as can then be estimated in anticipation of settlement; and also on the demand of treasurers of townships, cities or villages, in cluded in whole or in part in such dis trict, to pay over to such treasurers tne taxes oolleoted for them as near as oan then be estimated. The provisions as to penalties are the same as in the present laws. The object sought is expressed to some extent in the title of the bill : "To pre vent the unnecessary accumulation of money in the publio treasury;" but it also seeks to relieve the stringency that is now felt all over the State twice a year at tax paying times by collecting from tha various districts at different times, and providing ior the disbursement of tbe funds, so far as can be, without waiting for the aemi-annual settlements, thus making the money flow ont while it is being gathered into the oounty treasuries.
