We find in the Ohio papers the net charering the new Stute Bank, which must bea "monster" of no ordmary dimensions if wemay judtje by the proriigious length of the1 bil! which describes it. We have not tbecourage tcrattempt to reatfitrbut we are n- formed by our ex-choage that it makes one State Bank -xtiïh brandies eaeh district, and al the same time authorizes a 6ystem of free ent the stock of the State, similor to thnt of New York. The bifl! nuthorizes theissoing of twenty millions of dollars in paper;exempting stockholders and directora from individnal liability, nnd from fnxntion on their capital, except on the profits; allbws a larget issue on Pinall bilis, &c. The Democrats are raising the cry of'Kepenl,'' and 'uitend to make it the pïominent issue of the party. The parties being so nearly divided in that State, the risk of repeal is considerable, and will undoubtedly be a serióos difficulty in inducing1 capitalista to go into the operation. Thr Cr.NCiP.NATi Herald, in view of the indications of a. discu6sion of the elavery que?lion in Kentucky, says: Whilefiuch is the state of tlii.n?a in Kentucky, it becomes the duty of good citizenB n both ühinandits sister State to deprécate an unfricndly lone on the part of the press in either Stnie,in speoking of the citizena of the othér. Muchmore oughtall causes of unpleasant collision to be nssi'Iuonsly avoidod, so far asmoy be possible. We earnesily hope that no ci'.izen of Ofiio may subject himself to punisiiment unner the lawa of Kentucky, fcc. If bis goes to make the citizene of Ohio "mealy mbntheo' towarils the slaveholdinjf citizens of Kentucky, we dislike it. The slavehokiers very wcll know thnt inthelanguage of ubolitionistF, there is unfriondly feeling only to their wickedness. We cannot gain their respcel by complimentary expreaf ions or a etudied avoidance of that indigna,nt tone which they know true humanity mut prompt. We, too, hope no citizen of Ohio will subject himself to the clutchea of siavo holding law, but we pray that thousands mnj render themselves liable to the penalty of such law. Nothing does more to bring on the discnssion, or to bring it to a favorable resull, than what they cali "ölave stealiug." Success to it. - Bost. Chron.
