The fact is, that Gov. Mason has now a body of troop::, with baggage wagons, camp equipage, etc., ready, and regularly en camped on the ground. ° A few nights since, a force from Monroe came into lolcdo in the dead ot the night—their deeds being evil —and broke open two houses, ami carried away two citi sens, who have since been released on bail. Yesterday Gen. Brown entered the town of Toledo i With ail armed force, a Arc., and took two citi zens. Many oi the inhabitants have tied or withdrawn I to the interior of Ohio, and hc^r the protection of our laws. lien. Brown with his force iclil hack last night ubout two j miles to his CTicampinciiL. Gov. Lucas left this for Defianre, before this move ment on the part of the enemy, and then- is noprepura- 1 tion at all for defence on our part. The situation of af- 1 fairs in this quarter is deplorable. I have no fears, what- | ever, for my safety at present, hut danger seems to stare ; *»•’ •*» th«- luce in our enterprise. It seems in fact, that u military force will have to be I raised before this line can be run. Two expresses have been sent, by the citizens of this : vicinity, to Gov. Lucas, to learn his pleasure in this ‘ matter, and wo expect a return this evening. It is anx- | iously hoped by the citizens here, that the Governor will return with the messenger.—I hope so too, for his pre- j •cnce here would give countenance to measures. 1 think of starliug for Defiance in the morning, to com mence our ruiiuing at the west end. We have our baa- j gage wagon pauTy loaded, but this new movement changed flic face of things very much. The LL States Commissioners, Hush and I toward, after giving us as- 1 surances that the line might Le run without any trouble. 1 left us at ITrrysbarg, and returned to Monroe.

A pas senger in the Congress informs us, that four States, viz.: Zacatecas. Sun Luis, Morelia, and Durango, had already seconded the movement.

March 27. |.#; Wlf ( i Hichmond, Va., TiieMhiy, iflay APPOLWMEXTS AT IVASHIXGTOX. It is announced, that Mr. Harry gi»es us Minister to Spain— that Mr. Kendall takes Ins place us Post Master General—that Mr. Pickett of Kentucky, takes liis place as 4 th Auditor—that Dr. Mason of Virginia retires front the situation of Chief Clerk in the Cencral Post Office; uml that Mr. J.nughborogli, now Clerk in lbs Post Of fice, takes his place. Of all these appointments, that of Mr. Kendall is probably destined to receive the largest share of the pub lic attention. Judging from the muttering* of the distant thunder, when the tumour first went forth.we expected it would have been received with the loudest denunciations from the Whigs.—But so far, the Whig papers have hern moderate in their censures, while they nave not failed to dq justice to the qualifications of Mr. Amos Kendall.—The National Intelligencer says: Our opinion of the impropriety of the appointment, and our tears as to some of the results to be expected from this change, have been already expressed. We are quite sure, however, that Mr. K. will set himself diligent ly to work to reform and correct many of the abuses con nected with the pecuniary concerns of the Post-Office Department. Mr. Barry is said to have been extremely popular with all the clerks: and, indeed, with all having business with his office. This was owing to his easy, friendly manners, and generally kind disposition. If his successor has the reputation of being Jorli/r.r in rr, we believe that he lir.s never yet been complimented for the soocitcr in modo. Mr. Kendall's “ prospects ahead.” therefore, are not very flattering. 11 is political oppo nents distrust him as ail unscrupulous partisan, uml his politics! I'rwuib wiUi whom he is hereafter to be associat ed, utter a ‘ mild and easy reign’ of Mr. Burry, will grow restive under the severity and restraints of the new incumbent.” The Alexandria Gazette, after making a thrust at the K ilehen Cabinet, says “As for the rest, if it were not for the political objections to the new administrator of the Post Office, we incline to believe, from what evidence we have of his business habits, that hr mould moke on rjjicieul Postmostrr-Cirnrrul. Perhaps, however, it will be time enough to give him credit when lie Ins deserved it. When he shall have earned it, we will not deny it to him.” Mr. Niles himself says of the appointment: “This has been a long time spoken of. Mr. Kendall lias abili ty to manage tin: atlairs ol this great Department much better than they have been—and let us hope that lie mill do it.” ^ No man can qucstioA the abilities of Mr. Kendall. The Post Office Department is a business of innumerable de tails. It requires a clear bead for arranging routes, and adjusting accounts, indefktignblc industry, unflinching resolution in seeing that Postmasters and contractors faxthfiilljr discharge their duties. In all those respects, Mr. Kendnll is eminently distinguished. He seems ab solutely cut out for the business. Wc confess that we do not sympathise with the fears of the Opposition, that he will use liis ollico for political purpose**—such as turn ing out Postmasters lor opinions’ sake, putting in mere puitizans, and indulging favorite contractors.—He has given no evideru’js tt tins disposition in t.'ie office which he lias just abandoned—nor have we any just reasons to apprehend, that he will adopt a different character in the one be has just accepted. Hut, if Mr. Kendall ■ii'»uiu in 111 iin»' ris|ui:is, uus tress id iron ami will not hesitate to speak out in the mutter. We are un der no obligations to Amos Kendall—and we intend to ask or accept no favors at his hands. We seize this opportunity, while Mr. Harry is retiring from the olliee. to lay before the public a very interesliiur letter, ti hicli Mr. Smitli, a member ol ta.ngm-s from Maine, has written on the Htate of the Post Office. We are happy to render this act of justice to the late Post mastcr-Oeiu-ral. ji ii on/) jjV sfJisoA .1 M e cannot forbear ngain warning the Public.

There must come a time when the United Btate* Bank will refuse to discount any longer, and will require the payment of i i debts. Does any body suppose that it will temper tiiii demand to the condition of the financial uflairs of the oiinlry ? that it will endeavor to let the community do/n gently? that it will slightly prick the bio w n-up ht'jhle of credit „and let the air escape by slow degrees?

" We look 11*011 it ns a matter as certain AS that day will dawn tomorrow, that the United States Bank will make one more dcrprratr struggle for a renewal of its exist ence. It will mix itself again with the polities of the country; it vill set tip as I'resideht-maker; attempt to de fcat a choir? by the people, and seek to rule the nation through in fear* and through pecuniary distress. This distress ca‘i l>c but short lived, but it may Ik? voiy severe; and it is in possible to tr)| what stately vessels, now float ing galluMy on the sea of credit, may not ho stranded by the Mirricane.

We repent these warning notes for our Virginia rea ders. ’Die Bunk is not dead. The snake is only scotch ed, not killed. When, in the course of the next win ter (perhaps earlier) it begins to close upon us again, ought we not to he better prepared than we arc?, for the attack? We advise our readers to reflect calmly on these things—and to prevent another jtnnic by their own pru dence and precautions. We l*cg them to avoid all rush speculations—the running up ofTicavjr debts—aud to look to those two great sheet-anchors of till private and pub lic prosperity—Industry and Economy. Make us much as you can by hard work and wise management— and economise what you do make.— But to the urlicles we promised in the commencement of this article! STOCK-JOBBING. The tendency of the Stock-jobbing business, which the Bank of the United Stales has put in full blast by file 15 millions it lias thrown out, and in fact invested, to soma extent, by lending it on stocks, is finely expos e%l in the following article from the Evening Host.— We ask forituu attentive perusal:—GloLt. (Front the .Xcw York Evening Post.) If any person supposes that the United States Bank will not make another vigorous effort to prolong its ex istence, lie must be very ignorant, we think, not only of the character of that corporation, but of the principles of human nature generally, lie must l»e blind, also, to the signs of the times, which an* so palpable, that he who runs may read them. Is’t him consider the inflated state of our currency; the high prices of all commodities, which that inflation hns occasioned; the rage for speculation which exists; mid tin; fearful extent to which men of moderate actual capital have pushed their credit. No one who duly considers these circumstances cart uvoid the conclusion, that it would he utt easy thing for so power ful a financial institution as the United States Bank,sud- 1 dertly to arrest the abounding stream of credit, turn it buck upon its source, arid leave those who have rashly trusted lo its deceptive current, to be overwhelmed by the refluent waves. It is our Brin opinion that the United Stntes Bank in preparing to produce such a result. Its only ho|ie of felting u renewal of its charter is by coercion. Its on V means of coercion are pecuniary distress. Mr. Bid dle long ago prophesied, when examined before a Com mittee of Congress, that the dissolution of the institu tion over which he presides, would be followed by u ge neral derangement of the currency, the explosion of State Banks, and the suspension throughout the country of s|R*ciepayments, lie is now sedulously directing Ins dibits towards the accomplishment of this prediction. To this end the loans o! tire Bank have been extend ed in the last twelvemonth upwards of fourteen millions of dollars. Every Elate institution, large and small, has followed the fatal example, and the credit of all is now stretched far beyond a prudent limit. It is estimated by those w'lr • have us ample means of knowledge, and are of as sound judgment in finncial matters as'uny in the community, that the loans of tin* Banks in this city at the present time, are between filly and sixty millions of dollars. The natural cfleet of this unprecedented ex pansion has been to stimulate speculation, and advance the prices of all commodities jnr beyond their relative value, as compared with the standard furnished by the markets of other countries. 'Ho so great an extent has this advance of prices proceeded, that cotton is nearly the only staple article which can be exported to a profit. The rage for importation in the mean-while is unabated, A spirit of overtrading exists, which the United Elates Bank is doing all in itx power to foster. It hasexpanded its loans fourteen millions of dollars, and has lent the paper on unusual, if not unprecedented time. It still lends its credit freely in exchange for bills drawn at six end eight months. This, beyond a doubt, in our minds, is witu the direct object of stimulating commercial spe culation, and inducing excessive importations. While the United Elates Bank is pursuing (his course in the sea-hoard cities, it is at the same time withdraw UIIU IWMIIJJ 11 UJ> 111 1 IS | vaults in Philadelphia. We understand, on uiiquestion I aide authority, that in sonic id' its Western branches, it ; has positively refused to receive payments of debts due from other Hanks in ilrulls at sight on New York and Philadelphia, but insisted on being paid in specie, pre ferring the expense of transportation to suffering the pre cious metals to remain in the West. Our readers will remember several recent accounts of the arrival of large amounts ol s|»ecie in Philadelphia, from Cincinnati and other places in the Valley of the Mississippi. What course, it may be asked, will the Bank pursue I produce the pecuniary distress which is anticipated? There are several modes hy which this result, in the pre j sent inflated and insecure state of our currency, may be I effected. It is expected that the cotton crop of the present year will bring some ten or fifteen millions more than it did last season. The proceeds of this croji nre counted on as the fund to meet the debts which our merchants are now contracting abroad hy their exces sive importations. Suppose the Bank should come into the market, as a purchaser of bills of exchange, and ab sorb, in this way. a large part of the proceeds of the ceiion clop, iteming is to niiiuci' mm jiiauuiiioii nom pursuing such a course. Suppose it done, and who does m*t seethe effects that must flow from this policy ?— The merchants nre required to pay the British manufac turer; hut there are no funds in hurnpc cm which he can purchase bills of exchange. The United Stales Bank, which alone owns funds abroad, refuses to sell; but on the other hand demands payment of that long paper which U is now so reudy to discount, and which will then he falling due. The other Banks find demands made upon them for specie, and alarmed, immediately begin to cull in their loans. Too fate! There are no fumls in the community to meet the debts which have been con tracted. In a month the whole country may he drained of precious metals. Muny of the State Banks, totally unprepared for such a revulsion, may he obliged to sum IJi'nd specie payments. Merchant after merchant will I'uil. Trade will be suspended. Agriculture will lan guish over her unreaped fields, and distress and ruin spread themselves over the community ' Wo will not dwell further on this picture. We have no hope that holding it up to the public gaze will check the mad, demoralizing spirit of speculation which has gone abroad through the land, doing the errand of the United States Bank. We shall he looked upon as alarmists for uttering these warnings; but the day is at bund when their truth will he too sadly demonstrated.— In that day of ruin and consternation, Mr. Biddle will re mind the country of his prediction; he will tell them that all these disastrous resultsarc the inevitable consequence of the winding up the affairs of the Bank, and ho will once more demand a renewal of its charter.

Bank Breakers, and Brokers'Bubri.es.—The sons of tiade and merchandise are now running before the wind, with all sail set, and precious little ballast—while the Bonk Mermaids arc warbling their discount ditties, and using all their arts to hide the breakers which a sud den change of wind will disclose under the lee. 1 o speak without figure—the present abundance of money , and consequent rage for over-trading and specula tion of all sorts, are symptoms in the condition of Ame rican affairs, which every prudent man will regard with distrust and apprehension. The torpor caused hy the panic season, sunk the trad ing thermometer down to zero; and the restoration of confidence and plenty hid* fair to raise it up to fever* host. These transitions will occasionally happen, but their evil (fleets may be mitigated by prudence as well in lending as in borrowing—as in buying ami selling. There are three great sources of mischief at present, against which the trader should be; put upon his guard— and these arc, the United States Bank—the local banks, and the whole army of Urokersand Speculators ,wlio live on the credulity of the world of trade, as their peculiar prey. 'I'he immense loans which gave the U. S. Hank such a lever over the community of business, during the panic, amounted to seventy millions of dollars. The bank, with the help of its Senatorial millions, made all the distress which they impudently attributed to the Administration, by contracting this loan a million or two a month, until the reduction amounted io fin hj five millions. 'The bait is again let out by the1 man-catchers of the bank, to be again swallowed by its gudgeons, who are to be again hooked ami hauled in to the disgrace and reproach of— no, not Nicholas Middle, a* iik tells you—hut of Andrew Jackson, who did all he qould to deprive the man-fishers of their treacherous bait. The U. B. Hank prepared for the panic season, by pre viously increasing its loans at the rate of a little over one million and a half a month. It actually produced the panic, by cvnirattina its loans at the rate of about one million a month. '1 he same plotters against the pence and property of the country, are now preparing for ano ther panic, by still more rapid and holder strides. The loans of the flank have been increased from last Novem ber, to the first of this month, to the amount of almost I fifteen millions— or nearly at the rate of ThkKk Mir. f.lONS A MONTH !

The Whigs in Virginia had seized upon one of our horses for their Spring races.— Upon asking the ingenu ous \\ lugs to tell us the reasons of this manoeuvre, they did not hesitate to say, at once: “Uli! we know very well that we h»ve no horse of our own that can beat \ an Huron—We must take a Jackson horse to do it.” .hid tehy/ Bemuse they hoped, that by taking off some ol our own Jackson voters, and uniting them with their own Parties, they might carry the South for Judge White; and who knows but the North and West! And if they should fail in electing him through the Ml ctorul Col leges, still they may carry the election to the House.— Thus, they (latter themselves with the hope of beating us, by first dividing our ranks, and then taking the elec tion out of the hands of the People. Hut, e very day seems to w eaken their chances of suc cess. The plan does not very well take with the Jack son parly. 1 hey sec too well what the Whigs are about. 1 lie eyes ol the few whom they had gulled, are bog in ning to open—and the result ot tlu* Elections in Virginia shows, that notwithstanding they tcou’d force up. n the People the issue of t’un Hurra or White>' they are sig nally defeated in the Uhl Dominion. We have >'atnTd a majority of from lrt to SM in the House of Delegates, while the Whigs had their majority of ill in the last Le gislature.—We have gained two new Senators—and we have gained b or!) new, firm, Republican members °J’ Congress, and only lost one. The “Whig” of this City quails beneath the blow—and even confesses tin* “ The Van Hurcn party have the destiny of Virginia in their hands.” What we now ask is, will the friends of Judge White permit his name to be any longer used by the Whigs, for the purpose of dividing us ? Will lie permit it ? will the Whigs themselves think it worth their while to “saddle While Surry” again for the field? Hut of this tiling we are perfectly sure—that the Republicans ought not to disarm. '1 hey ought to take their measures, as if Judge White, his friends, and the Whigs are still united in the South—as if the Whigs of the North and the West would still follow up their plan lor dividing us—by run ning one of their own men, and carrying the Election, it they can, into the 1 louse of Representatives. We have only one plain course marked out for us—to avoid nil division in our own ranks, to promote un unity of views und concert ot ojH-ralioiis, and to go for the selected can didate of the Republican party. We must cope with the \V higs at every point. Let us foil their cunning !>y our own discretion. If they are desperate, let us be de We must lie vigilant and active. We have given them a \Y a ter loo defeat in Virginia, lint the war is not yet over. We must not yet disarm. It is true, the Whigs are more embarrassed than ever. They must begin to find, that the wile of the Troian Horse is not sufficient to carry the Citadel. But, until they raise the Beige in the South, wc must be prepared to meet them. This tiling is cer tain, that they will run a candidate of their own—and that the weaker they find Judge White in the South, the less anxious will they be to take him up in the North and West. We lay the billowing articles before our read ers to satisfy them, that the Whigs are determined to lake up one of their own men—but who that mail may lie is not so certain. It may be Webster, or it may be Clay— or both may be run, according to circumstances : The letter which Mr. Wagyuman, the late Senator of the U. States, addressed in February to the members ol the Legislature ol Louisiana, has just been published, lie tells them—‘*1 trust it will cost your generous feel ing noeliiirt to gratify the honest pride with which your Northern brethren delight to bring forward a distinguish ed citizen. You must feel and acknowledge that, in the distribution of the high honors id" the Confederacy, a full share, to say the least, has fallen to the South; and I hope you are ready and willingto show to your Northern brethren, thatyour views in this respect are not confined to a single quarter or section of tliw Union. The op portunity now afforded to you to act upon these princi ples, is of the most favoruble character.

Of the three candidates before you, he is the only one whose principles arc in accordance with the best interests 'of lAiuisietnei." The Vermont Watchman says, “Daniel Webster and the Whigs can voluntarily support neither Mr. Van Bu re n nor Judge White, until they desert ali those princi ples which it has been their highest pride to endeavor to sustain on every occasion. It is true, the Whigs of the North may be forced eventually to choose between them on the floor oi Congress; then it will be lime to say whose ally they will become—and then, we apprehend, there will be few objections to any denunciations which either the (ilobe or Telegraph can fulminate. But, why should the Ielcgraph bring this charge against .Mr. Webster? We ask not for whatjmrjiose—the purpose is evident: It is to drive the true Wings of the Middle and Western States from the Whig Webster to the Tory White.” The jY. V. .) meric an says, that “Mr. Webster is now a prominent candidate for the Presidency, and certainly it merit,capacity, and services, may decide the contest, he will not fail of being elected. “ I hero are those, however, who, having acted hereto fore with Mr. Webster,and entertaining the same gene ral views with him, yet express doubts of the expediency of pressing his election at this juncture. “We cannot perceive the motive, or feel the policy, of such doubts. We are fighting for a cause and not for reward. We are therefore bound, as it seems to us, to select for our leader and candidate, one who em phatically represents that cause—one, who, if successful, will honor it in every station—and with whom, even do feat could not bring disgrace. “ Ah between Mr. Van Burenand Mr. White of Ten nessee there is little room for choice—neither having any thing in common with the high principles on which the Whigs have professed to act; and to neither—with out admitting that these professions were empty and worthless—can the Whigs ns a party, yield their suppofl. “ Let us keep up our own flag and' close array—ami irith Daniel It rhstrr for our Under, or if there he any other equally meritorious, and more available, candidate —so only that lie be a Whig—then with such a one for a leader—let us still fight the good fight, come what rmiii* mni* M The Boston Courier (tho pitch-pipe of Mr. Webster) declares, peremptorily, that his friends will not abandon him—while the Editor of the Louisville Journal, who was the Biographer and is the organ of Mr. Clay, appears to hint in the following article, that Ac may he induced once more to take the field: “ W’c should regard any attempt at this time to enlist the great body of American \Vhigs in the cause of either of the Jackson Candidates, as fatal to the party, if not fatal to the Republic, it'may be very easy to make a parade on paper, of so many White Slates and so many Whig States, and, by putting them together, secure the election of Mr. White. But these paper calculations might be found to he utterly delusive. A great party will not unite with zeal and animation upon a Candidate holding principles directly adverse to their own. It will be dif fioult at any time to induce the great body of the Whig party to unite upon a Jackson Candidate, it will be ut terly impracticable to do it, unless the conviction is brought lieinc to them, that there is no prospect whate ver of electing a Candidate of their own. “ But it may be argned, that the election of a Whig Candidate is now hopeless. We do not think so. On the contrary, we believe, that nny Whig candidate who can unite the support of the whoL* party, will he elected by l!.. , nr that, if the elec!io*- is to devolve on llie House of Re presentatives, he wili carry into that House a greater rote than any other candidate.' If, ns we think, sueh in tlie state of things at present, -vhy should the Whigs overlook it, and, rutting themselves oft’from the advantage of nil favorable events that may arise be tween the prom nt and the next winter, rush into the support of one of the Jackson Candidates? Already Mr W ebster lias been nominated by the highly re spectable and Siiriehl Commonwealth of which he is a citizen. General Harrison has ulso been nominated by respectable portions of the people in various States.— W iiilsl candor compels us to own that neither of those gentlemen would be our choice, and, that all our feelings und prepossessions, as well as our judgment, point to a ci tizen of our own Htate, we freely ndmrt that we would lake either of them, or any other true snd intelligent Whig, in preference to Martin Van Huron, or ILigh Lawson White. W'r believe that Mr. Clay has no wish to become a eamlidnte; hut oil our information satisfies us that hr is more lil.eltj than any man, to unite the tinili tided forte of the Whig party: Jh.d we hope, that, if they ge nrriitlu should deem it ervedient to use his name, he trill yield his repugnantt to their wisher.
