"In a lulo numher of the Detroit Advertiser, it in tuted that exertions were being made at Washington, lust winter, lo concentrate the strength of the Whig party in favor of the nomination for llie Presidency, of a distinguished military mnn, and that the friends of this man were at the mine time deprecating the public agitation of the selection of a candidate before loiS. We had before heard of enmhined movement, at Washington and Coluuihus, of the restless spirits that, a members and luhhies, intent the seat nf our national and state governments and undertake to plan out work for the people throughout the nation and state. Them; cabal are beginning to deiiiguate, beforehand, who hall receive the party nomination, while the more respectable men of the party, attending to their honest calling at home, are left to act the part of automaton ; mid the voter are merely inert matter to be moved a the eabal direct. ' The party winning lo be known as the Democratic party has long been managed by a few political gambler and huckster. It i I ho duty of the lound men of the Whig party to keep it from a like degradation." Toledo Iliad. We know nothing and therefore say nothing of the movements alluded lo by the Detroit Advertiser a luring taken place at Washington City last winter. If made at all, Gen. Scott in undoubtedly free from blame. The alluvion of the Tub-do Blade to move-mcnU (it Washington and Columbus lake us, howev. er, by surprise ; at least, to far a this city is concerned. We cannot avoid the conclusion that the Blade lia been led into error. If movement have been made here, they were nude unknown to us. With that journal we deprecate any attempt to lake the right of providing a candidate for the next Presidency out of the hand of the people. Any attempt to forestall or to force a candidate on the great Whig Parly by caucus mwigeui'Mit, will be fatal to the hope of the individual iu behalf of whom uch a movement i made. Men may have their preference and they undoubtedly have a right to express them ; but not in such a way as to interfere with free action and free expression in other quarter. The Whigs of Ohio hive their preferences, and they feet proud of tin position their State occupies in the Whig phalanx, having encouragement to believe that if they wisely and harmoniously unite in presenting the nunc of one of their own distinguished citizens, who ii looked upon with favor in all section of the country, as combining pre-eminent nualificatons for the station, they miy anticipate a response that will not long leave the question of candidacy in doubt. That they wilt, when the proper time arrives, give sueh nn expression harmoniously, energetically and enthusiastically, cannot bo doubled, a it his been fully understood for some time that but one of the three citizens of the State, wh'se name have beeu used in that connection has withheld a declination of the honor and re upon si hi lily ; and that one, we have long known, will only consent to such a use of his name, if it can be made to contribute to the strength of the great Whig party and be instrumental in securing success to the principles for which we have so long battled under gallant leaders ; principles which governed him as Post Master General under John Quincy Adams and made him one of tho most popular ollicers the Government hi had since its organization. Never for a moment has he swerved in his devotion lo those principles, tho' a few have supposed otherwise because he received n nomination to the exalted station he now fills so ably, at the hands of Gen. Jackson. At the commencement of his career Gen. Jackson stood on the Democratic platform and advocated many doctrines for which we as Whigs still contend, yet it is well known that he nominated the distinguished man of whom we are speaking in tho first placo because he knew that it would be very acceptable to the country, and in the second place because he wished to have in his cabinet ouo whom he could mould to his purposes. Strong as are our preferences, deep a may bo our convictions that the name of this honored citizen of Ohio, (should he allow it to be used,) would be a tower of strength to our cause, much as we desire to see conferred upon our own Stale the honor of designating one of her own distinguished and incorruptible citizens for the Presidency, it i farthest from our inelination to discuss the question at this time. We have strictly and steadfastly refrained ftoin agitating the question, and discussing the claim and qualifica lions of the distinguished men whose names have been used in this connection. Wo ahull adhero to that course until the time arrives for an expression of sentiment. At present our duty is, as we are well convinced, to await developments in the ranks of the opposition. The patriot should collect all hi energies to save the country from the ruin that threatens it un. der tho evil counsels and labor of the present administration. When the rrori.c find a necesvity for a stundard bearer, they will speak out. Tho Htule Debt How it wna ('rented nnd by Whom! Tho Fruuils nnd rcculution Developed ! I For several year past it has been apparent to every intelligent man, that a change in our State all airs had become necessary. The debt of the State hnd been annually increased from lr:Mj to M l. In I H: Hi the whole amount of our State debt, Foreign and Domes tic, was only $"i,l'pli,Ulil. In tl'i it had been increased lo about ririrc million uud a half ! being more than rrrn millions in three years. In lH4'i it was $Hi,-!M7,:W.V In I -14 the permanent debt of the Htule ap pears, upon the bonks of the Fund Commissioner and Auditor of State, to have swelled to tho eiiuriuous sum of Mr.Ti:i:s numuhs Tvto iiim-iuii am tu. Tt-Mxr. -mot-stun lot ii inxtmro amd twcm e imii. i.am ! with a large temporary debt for money borrowed to pay interest; the whole amounting to nearly twii TV MIU.OKS. There liml been nn annual deficit in the revenue of the Stato from KHito 114. The Auditor informs us in hi annual report of State liabilities Dec. IHJv!, Doc. lit that lite sum due to tho sinking fund was ! " rising two millions of dollar," for tho payment of, which the faith of ihe State was solemnly pledged to j its creditors. In addition to this, the deficit in the interest fund for the Inst seven years is umre than one million tight kandrrd tkousaad dollars! It is not difficult lo ascertain the cause which pro. duced this unfortunate condition of our State finances and debt. The public voice has declared in tones not to be mistaken, that the engineer, agents and high officer of the Stnte who had the control of the money borrowed for the purpose of completing our Public Works nud of paying the debts due to the eon I rue tors and laborers of the Stato had been squandered and misapplied. It hail been corruptly lavished upon par-tixan favorites, while the i Hirers, whose duly it was to raise the means ncccsxary to pay the annual interest upon the Stale debt, for the snke of retaining popular favor, neglected to levy sullicicnt taxes to meet the demands of the treasury, while they applied large unit of the principal borrowed from year to year to nay the accruing interest. These are facts which the records of the Slate prove beyond contradiction. For the purpose of silencing the public clamor, which was becoming loo loud lo bo lunger disregarded, a pnrtiiin committee or board was appointed in March IrtVi with full power and authority to investigate tho accounts and vouchers of the several members of the Board of Public Works." This resolution did not reach tho main sources of frauds and peculation which existed. It Wat not only the accounts but the arts and (unvnf tho Board and their agents that required investigation. Tliit committee, composed of Jacob Medary, Win. Trevitt and II. A. Moore, made but a partial examination of the accounts of the Board ; but even this examination disclosed the fact that tho members of the Board nud their late colleague hid, In November, more than thirty firr tkousand rfooirsnf the pub-lie money in their hands entirely unarcouiited for. How much they had taken from the treasury, for their own private purposes, in IrU'i, they did not report. Tho whole of the year IH-W passed, and until December, 1H4;I, during which lima nearly four million were added to the State debt, and still these men were retained m office, with unlimited control over tae mil lions borrowed by the State. It is to pay the interest upon these millions thut the people of the Stale havo now to submit to heavy taxation. In December, 1H4.1, Mr. (.rough, Auditor of State, brought the subject tiefore the Legislature in his Annual Report, in wliich he pretty distinctly charged the Board with squandering the public funds countenancing peculations and frauds keeping hordes of placemen and leeches fastened upon the public works with gross neglect of duty, and ignorance, if not corruption, in the management of the public works ; and as tho charge was understood by tho Board themselves, so far us ono of tho members was concerned, " with projligacy, dishonesty and incompetency" Instead of boldly meeting these grave charges and demanding on immediate and thorough investigation, as honorable ami innocent men would have done, this notable Board, in their annual report, dated more than n month after the public charge had been preferred against them, made poor, lame, pitiful excuses and attempted to cover over their delinquencies without even demanding an investigation. The "party" resisted all cfFirts to reform the Board, nnd 'lit despite of the Whigs who had a majority in one branch of the Legislature, still continued them in ollieo. It was not until tho Whigs had a majority in both branches of the Legislature nt the session commencing in December 1H II, that provision was made lo bring these faithless and corrupt agents of the Stnte to the bar of public justice for trial and condemnation. On the M'H of January 145, Mr. Archbold, a democratic member from Monroe, offered a resolution charging upon tho Board of Public Works misdemeanor and crimes of tho most flagrant character, and instructing the committee on Finance to enquire into the expediency of bringing in a bill to secure a thorough investigation of Iheso abuses. This resolution was passed by a unanimous vote. The bill was afterwards reported and passed by a vote of 45 ayes lo 1 noes of the noes every one being a democratic. During the progress of this bill au amendment was ottered by Mr. Reemelin the democratic member from Hamilton county, wliich led to the passage of another act, providing for an examination of the proceedings of the Board of Canal Fund Commissioners. Tho act for the examination of the accounts, book mid proceedings of the Board of Public Works provided lor the organization of a Board with full power lo make the necessary investigation. To the labors of these Commissioners we arc indebted for full and conclusive proof of the facts establishing the charges which had been made against the Board of Putdic Works and their subordinates. It is now known how a part, at least, of the money borrowed by the State ha been squandered and lavished upon favorite by illegal contracts, extra allowance, nnd other modes of peculation the members of the Board taking car to secure to their friends, if not to themselves, a full share of the money plundered from the people. Every man in the State shoutd rend and carefully consider the fact brought to light in the report of the Commissioner. He would then understand how the Stale debt was increased from fire and a half millions in H'Ki to twelre and a half million in Iri.W, and to nearly Urcntij mtlliims in lH-H. He could answer the questions, what has made the tuxes of the State so heavy.' How has it happened that our rich Stale, with all her abundant wealth and resources, has been so nearly shipwrecked and dishonored? How was it possible to cxHnd upon !M miles of canal through a level country mure than thirty-three thousand dollars per mile f" This report shows (page 'Hi) that the late members of tho Board of Puolic Works had in their hands in April, H.", more than thirty-eight thousand dollars, including interest, unaccounted for. It appear that the Kngmeer or Agent of the Slate upon the National Il iad was retained in ollice long alter hi fraud and false reports were known by the II tard It apiciir by the evidence as stated from page 'M to I, that this Yotitx and his subordinates plundered the State, upon the most moderate calculation, of more than fifty thousand dollars! The fact detailed from page ?H to 104, shows that the Kugiiieer upon the Miami KUcns'nm Caunl, who was in fact commissioner and contractor, put into the pockets of his brother-in-law, if not in his own, jSH,-Vtli lilt, ns profits upon a job illegally given to that brother-in-law. It is established by evidence see page II 1 that $I1,'.M4 IHi wn given to another favorite, uver and above a fair price, up m a job let in violation of the express provisii n of law. We have not time or space to register nud present in detail nil the facts disclosed ill this report. We call upon (he people of Ohio to look at tho evidence of these monstrous frauds and peculation, hi addition to those we have already referred to, witness the sum improperly paid upon the Sidney feeder page I'.'ll. The money retained by Barney from tho children of the Irishmen who performed the work page VJ'i. The sum improperly allowed to a favorite pages V') and I'.li and the amount wholly unaccounted for page J -111, The huuis given to other favorites page .V, I Gil, I(li and Hi ; and, lo complete the picture, reud the facts disclosed from page !" to I!t, showing that more th in tiro hundred and tie rtn thousand dollars were illegally paid upon two contracts! The whole amount of the items to whieli we have referred with others specified ;n the report, from page '..It topnge lt0, is more than four hundred thousand dollars. This is th" amount already discovered. How much more has tn-cn fraudulently taken from the treasury under the cover of legal firms can never be certainly known. We find that Ihe Miami Canal was construct-ed by W. J. Wdliami fir $14,.mH per mile while the Wabash and F.rie Canal cost $:i;t,li7 per mile, and other works executed between lUiand If 14 iu near, ly the same proportion will show that whatever has been discovered and brought to light, much more still ermaiiis hidden from the public scrutiny. A Hard Kflort to make out a Hard Case! The Locofoco Auditor and Ins allies in Morgan county, have set to work to make out a list of laud-holders who will pay a larger tax this year than in IHIfV. A might well be expected, thoy did not make up their list from the tax-payers of the county seat, because that would show that those who help up to make up Ihe deficiency in the Slate revenue are not men who auk or need much the sympathies of community. In other words, that they nre not men of limited means and small property. This Auditor and his partizan allies have brought two or threo dozen individuals before the public who pay a larger tax than they did in lH-lli. Wo know many of them personally, aswell-to-do in the world, the owners of the best farms in the county. Some of them have manufacturing properly that adds to their tax by being brought on the duplicate. Others have valuable personal property and a considerable amount of money at interest and credits. A few of them own a largo number of hog and sheep which now go on the duplicate for the fust time along with other property. Others, probably,have erected new structures and made new improvements since Inst year. By picking out a few case of this character, the Morgan Locos seem to suppose that they can produce the impression that ull the farmers and landholders pay a larger tax than Ikey did lust year. They will find themselves baulked badly. It may be well enough touslt whether those who made out this list did not in their researches discover ns largo a list of persons whoso taxes wore not increased? Why did they not show this side of the picture ? Why did they not show how tho tax stood iu the towns as compared with the country, and how it operated on smnll-property-holders ns well a on large one ? Need we usk why ? Who does not see and understand that if they had brought up the whole videnco and exhibited it iu its true colors it wuuld have exposed their duplicity and dishonesty? It could ' not bo otherwise, in view of the fact aiUtnd$yhorsrsy I r(c, sheep and hottg all together, arc on the duplicate at nearly eight millions of dollars less thun lands, hor-1 bus and cattle alone exhibited on the duplicate last year, i ho additional milt imposed in order to prevent further increase of the State debt by borrowing to pay tho interest, will not be as grout on this diminished amount of farmer's properly a on tho return of last j year. It may bo well enough too, tojnquire whetherthere has not been an additional r.uunttj-tat imposed iu Mor- .iu, that increases the burthens borne by its citizens. Wo suspect this is the case, and if so, it may ho well enough to inquire for trhut purposes. At the same 1 time Jetn comparison be made between Locofoco char- j ges for ns messing and those of Whigs. We can well ; inagine how they manage matters iu Morgan, and how the Locofoco ollicers generally have exhibited their sympathy for the tax-payers, by the fact that it cost j one hundred and siity-eight dollais to print the blanks the assessors in Morgan while in the large Whig county of Muskingum alongside, the charge was but () or (J ) dollars ! Til is game ha been played all over the State, and an amount of fraud ami rascality resorted to in Locofoco counties and by Locofoco ollicers. hieh will yet be exhibited, sulhcient lo astound the moral sense of the whole Stale. One thing, every child will see is certain, viz: That the imposition of a tax of nil additional null on the dollar, could produce no sueh result as is exhibit- d by the Locofoco paper of Morgan county. The statement was framed to deceive. It is not even shown that tax is on the duplicate. Nor is it slated whether there was or was not an additional towndiip Tax in two townships from which the cases exhibited were taken. A few cases have been exhibited in the same coun-where lauds arc placed on the. duplicate, under the new law, at a very grea. advance ns compared with tho appraisement under the old law, in order to pro- luce ihe impression that ull the laud will go on the uplicatc nt an enormous advance, thus throwing the burthens of taxation chiefly on it. Let the examina tion be fairly made and the irhule tase exhibited, and it will be found that unimproved or partially cultivated lands, usch as will generally be found in the possession of I bote who nre illy able to bear the burlh- ns of taxation, have In -en relieved ; while those who finely cultivated, highly valuable, well improved property, will have to bear an increased share of the Slate Tax. L"t these men show the increase ill personal property as compared with Hf'.and in what proportion that has increased, and then make a compiri- n tint will show lh result in the whole county and the public wdl be aide to decide for themselves how law operate. Let them not again attempt to de lude and deceive by Iheirouc sided, deceptive and partial exhibitions. An Auditor in a neighboring county who ha ex amined the milter says that the taxes of laud-holders are reduced as frequently as they are raised. Is .Mr. Tod In fnvor of the It e pen I or the lllnrk l.nuf That is the question to whirhthe people of Ohio demand an answer just now. Is he iu fnvr of their repeal as a whole or in part ? Mr. Hchh has lieeti charged with having one set of sentiments fur the Reserve and another set r none at all for the Southern part of the State. We have denied it and Mr. Bebb has bold ly and manfully denied it by announcing that he would give his views ou the Black Liws as well as on other questions whenever his lime would nllowund his auditors desired hint to d so. He scorns concealment mid double dealing and has thus given new evidence of hi honesty and worth. We have ntked those who wished to misrepresent him and his views, those win ventured to inlimale tint this i one of ihe ' itsars "Im--Ion1 the people, whit position Mr. Tod occupied. We made the in piiry of the Cincinnati Advertiser. It ha taken the lead in attempting to dci; tin into the parly arena, and wo hive dired it lo an exposition of tho views of Mr. Tod as duo to the party." We have demanded an expression of tentiuvnt. Not a word, however, have we succeeded in drawing from it, at yet, in reply. What doe (his mean ? Does it not indicate an attempt to deceive the people of Ohio? It it not proof conclusive lint a fraud is meditated on the Locofoco voter of tho Stale ? We aver tint it is. Wo lull continue to demand an exposition of Mr. Tod's views until every man in the ranks of tho opposition shall know that there it a deliberate purpose to conceal the views of their candidate and thus leavo (he Locofo co press in tho Southern section of the State to de noiuice Mr. Bebb and delend the Black Laws, wluli the press of the same party in the North will denounce the black-laws and pledge their candid Me for repeal, atone of the tests ol u drmrrle!,, The Cincinnati Advertiser hn denied our declaration to the contrary and allirmed that the repeal of the Blnek Laws iioneof the issues before the people. Alter its own admission it cannot escape a declaration ol the views of Mr. Tod, without iiisulliiig it own renders and the people ol the State. We also asked the Advertiser's opinion in regard to Ihe resolution adopted at Ravenna, Portage county, by a Lwn'iiro County t'onrentionf It has not dared to live them publicity, or to venture a remark ; and what is worthy of remark, instead of noticing this attempt to deeeivo the people and conceal Mr. Tod's views, the Cincinnati Herald, the Utterly rgmt isrnititgrd in an rjl'iirt fa defeat ike impression it supposes may he made nn the minds of anti'slarrry men, and it warning tkem t pat nut tnpparting Mr. Ittldtf Wonder if it wilt not next (a (a Weary,) use its influence printtety to coii vince its own party that thryran iritk more safety rart their rotts for Mr. Tod than for Mr. UrhbS Tho News from W nthiiiRtov Hecomes more interesting and is more eagerly sought for as the time approaches fur a vote on the Tariff juestion in the Senate. Tint body adjourned on Sat urday evening without a vole. The postponement of the vole Iteyond the lime set is a favorsble indication. It shows that some of those who have been relied up on as the Iriends of Mi Kay's Bill are not over anxious to make the issue, and if by delay they am enabled to secure nn excuse for leaving their friends, they may avail themselves of it. Ttho fate of the British bill it still uncertain, but tho chance of its passage are certainly not ns goon as uiey were a week since. Should it bo defeated it will conlirm an impression tint we have long entertained, that Mr. Polk does not, after all, desire its passage, though he is bound to make hi friends believe so, and wishes to have the South understand that he fullers not in his levolnui to her blind theories and abstractions. If he can have the benefit of tho Tariff of llJ in providing means for the Government nnd at the time time have the credit with the South of being opposed to it, it will answer his purposes well. Iu oilier words, ho it with Ihe South ill principle, but he fears the consequences of carrying out those principles, as embodied to some extent in McKay 'a 11.11. We repeal what we said sometime since, tint if Mr. Polk actually desires to have McKay's B ll pass, it trill pass! It he has become alarmed at tho threatened consequences, it will Ik defeated. On Saturday list, Mr. H mvoon, of North Carolina, resigned his seat in the Senate. We have yet lo learn Ins reasons for (Ids step, but it is believed in Washington that an unwillingness to vote for McKay's Bill led to the step. The " nian " takes hull to task in round terms. Whether it means whit it says, we leave our readers to judge, who are able by this time to estimate the reliability of the otlieial organ. Certain it is, that the resignation of Mr. Haywood abstraei one vote set ,1 .wn fr M-Kiy's Bill. Still, if Mr. Jurnagin votes for it, it will pass by a majority nane vote. It tkcon lidently stated by some that ho will thus vote. By others it is doubted. On Saturdiy a large nuinlier of memorials from New York, Pennsylvania and other Stales, were presented against McKays Bll. Mr. Webster made a great speech against the bill. He spoke about four hour without concluding. Again and again in the course of his investigation of the subject he asked for the ev deuce that tho people desired the repeal of the Tan If of H4 Mr. Lewis called for tho quetlion, intending to cut IT the remainder of Mr. Webster's speech. Tho Sen ale, however, resolved to adjourn willioul taking tho question, by t vole of "V to U'. Nothing was done in the House of public interest. A few private bill were considered, and the members then made their wny to the Senate to hear Mr. Web ster. The Senate Chamber was crowded. The Senate is about making an effort to ascertain how the Oregon Treaty got into Ihe possession of the Philadelphia piper. A Point well model The Daily Diytouiau thus shows up Mr. Polk's as sumption of rciect for the Senate, as exhibited iu his message lo that body requesting it to instruct him how to settle the Oregon question and his course in bring ing on a war with Mexico willioul the consent of Con gress. The country cannot avoid the conclusion that Mr. Polk's conduct in this matter was unmanly and disingenuous : When you see J sines K. Polk msking wnr with Mexico while Congress is in session, and in violation tho Const ilniion, yet under pretence of grrnt respect for the people, ret using to settle the Oregon question With' out the advice of Congress. We aay, don't be hum bugged-il sa tub to the Whale. ( onqiiewt-OIore Annexation. Notwithstanding the deprecatory remarks of even a portion of the northern and southern Locofoco press, and the opposing public sentiment of tho whole country, a war of conquest is to be carried on ngn'mat Mexico, if wo are to rely on the asseverations of men in the army, made after having opportunities of hearing the opinions of those who have received commissions from Mr. Polk, Mexico is to b$ robbed again robbed by men profussiug to love justice who would bo tho last to submit to such a wrong and tho first lo denounce it in others. Mr. Polk meuns to appropriate tho properly of a republican neighbor, and for no other sin than that of resisting attempted wrong. The public men of tho Mexican nation do not command the highest respect among other nations, but the whole civilized world will cry u shame!" as it witnesses the wrong wo have attempted and our deliberate abandonment of the high and ennobling principles by which we have heretofore professed to be guided. The following from the St. Louis Republican seems to bo sustained by a weight of authority : We speak carefully and advisedly when we say, that no peace can take place no terms of compromise will be accepted no mediation will be recognized which has not Jor its basis the absolute surrender of Upper and famcr California, nnd the. Department of Sew Mrjrieo, to the United States. On no other ground will the Administration consent to a cessation of hostilities, even for a moment, this is the ultimatum this, tho basis of the instructions lo the commanding generals of tho Army : The Hio Urandc to he the boundary line between so much of the Mexican territoryjis is not swallowed up in this demand of the Administration -Yew Mriro, and the whole of the California lo bo tho absolute properly of the United Stales.

The officers of the Fist Regiment of Ohio volunteers havo returned a vote of thanks to the Captains of the steam, boats which conveyed them to New Orleans, for the attentions that wero paid to their comfort and to that of their men, the excellent manner in which they had been provided for and the expedition with which they wero conveyed lo New Orleans. They found the boats comfortable und llteir baggage well cared for and safely landed. They also return their thanks to Major Tompkins and vindicate him against tho charge of having overlooked their convenience, safely and comfort in the selection of boats to convey them- Wo ate gratified at the fact thus staled.

The hen 1th of the regiment was good. Amu r to FAntmts! The Ohio Press warns the people against receiving Ohio Bank pner iu payment for their Wheat this summer and fall. The Ohio Farmers will bo very apt to thank the Press for its advice and retain their grain until they can elect a Locofoco Legislature and " reform " the new banks out of existence to make room for Gallipolis, Michigan and Illinois paper ! High encouragement they certainly have to follow such counsels ! The Farmers of Ohio will esteem themselves fortunate if they are not deprived of an opportunity of selling their grain by the destructive measures of a Locofoco administration which arc calculated, when fully consummated, lo deprive the firmer of a market for ten bushels of Wheat in order to accommodate him with one that will give a demand for about one tenth that quantity of his grain. If wo mistake not the Locofico (hard) pre advised the farmers last winter not to take Ohio paper for their iork. They did lake it, nevertheless, and got the worth of their pork. Hud they kept their pork the packers and speculators would hove aved several hundred thousand dollars! A Libel ou the Reserve 1 The Ohio Press of yesterday says: We were well aware that the Western Reserve of Ohio was a poor place to find men who were willing to right for their country in case it was invaded by a foreign enemy." That is a gross libel un the Reserve, on men of both political parlies. How the Locofocos there wtio were just as backward as Whigs in volunteering for this war will receive this c i.iipliuicnt, remains to be seen. When was the Reserve backward in furnishing men lo defend the soil of the country? Was it during the In- an wars and the conlltct on the Lakes? Lt tins li-tier of a portion of his iVIIow-cilizeiis answer. The idea sought lo bo conveyed that the present war is for the defence nf our own soil " invaded by a foreign enemy," is so ultely baseless nnd so much nt variance with the facts us they exist, that we wonder the Press could venture to advance it. liidiuna Klccts a Governor and legislature on M mday next. I he result is doubtful. The lugs hope lor success, but have not perfected their organization anu aroused fully the spirit that leads to victory. Small voles are Iway detrimental to Whig success. That truth holds good the country over and at all timet. Profits of Ihe l orelun Murkett Tho Cincinnati Gazette stales a case which it says is on a par with v majority of cases where shipments of produce wero made to F.uroH? from that vicinity.

Who among the many in what are called the higher walks of life, who are iu the habit not only of tolerating the company nud encouraging the visits of the morally depraved, can feel otherwise than rebuked, severely, justly rebuked, in view of such evidence of tho evils of such practice. Wo want more of that stern virtue which will refuse to wink at sum that are demoralizing society and poisoning the hearts of the young, in th towns and cities of the country. How many kind hearted, well meaning, affectionate parents (it wo may be allowed to call them such) are cherish ing vipers in their families and exposing their own and the peace nf their loved offspring, by tolerating the visits of the gay but heartless libertines, and smiling ou the dissipated scions of wealthy families. A DiNcovery, verily Tho Cincinnati Advertiser hat discovered that the Constitution of the State it one of the Black Imics, the modification ami Repeal of which is now agitated ! This is certainly a discovery, the very latest ; and the honor of making it belongs to the Advertiser solely, ex clusively. Mr. Tod has avowed himself in favor of! an amendment of the Constitution, for various purpo se! which he has specified with considerable minute nets. Wo do not recollect, however, that a niodtfica tion of its provisions in regard to the blacks is named Will the Advertiser inform ut whether Mr. Tod in willing to embrace this in his proposed reforms? Of course wo cannot doubt its willingness to give this in formation, in view of the frankness and fearlessness which havo thus fur characterized its course. If it does not we shall not call ou the Statesman or Press in vain.

Q'J Our neighbor of the Springfield Republic is not pleased over-much with what he considers the pre-arrangement between Franklin and M idison in reference to the selection of Senator. There was certainly no pre -arrangement and nothing unfair iu the proceeding. flte Franklin county delegation thought that Madison was fairly entitled to the Senatorial candidate. They ast their votes accordingly. There was no under standing between the delegates of Franklin and Madison as to what should he done in the event of a fail ure on ihe part of M idison to present a candidate, and for aught we know the latter milil havo preferred a Clark county man to one from Franklin.

The news is four days later, and of some interest; especially so is the announcement that a deputation from the British Navy trrived at Fort folk, upon business witu (ten. laylo, calculated to xcile curiosity and speculation.

Message from the Presidmt uf the i'nittd States, com. wunieating a proposition on the part of the Hrittsh liucirnuu ntfor the adjustment of thcOrtgon question. June 10, iHltjrcud. To the Senate of the t'aittd States : 1 lay before the Senate a proposal in tho form of a Convention, presented to the Secretary of Slate on the fith inst. by the Kuvoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of her Britlnuic Majesty, for the adjustment of the Oregon question, together Willi a pro-tocol of this proceeding. I submit this proposal to the consideration of the Senate, and request their advice a to the action which, in their judgment, it would bo proper lit tike in reference to il. Iu the early period of the Government the opinion nud advice of ihe Senate were often taken in advance upon important questions of our foreign policy. Gen-eral Washington repeatedly consulted the Senate and nsked their previous advice to which he always conformed his action. This practice, though rarely resorted to in later times, was, in my judgment, eminently wise, and may, on occasions of great importance, bo properly revived. The Senate are a branch of tho trealy-uinking power, and by consulting them in advance of his own action, uwni iuiortaiit measures of foreign policy which may ultimately come before them for consideration, the President secures harmony of action between that body and himself. The Senate are moreover a branch of the war-making power, and it may be eminently proper for the Executive to take the opinion and advice of that body in advance upon any great question which may involve in its decision the issue of peace or war. On the present occasion the magnitude of the subject would induce me, under any circumstances, to desire the previous ndvicc of the Senate, and that desire is increased by the recent debates nud proceedings in Congress, which render it in my judgment, not only respectful to the Senate, but necessary and proper, between that body and the Executive. In conferring on the Executive the authority lo give the notice for the abrogation of the Convention of 17 ; the Senate acted publicly so large a part that the decision on the proposal now made by the British Government, without n definite knowledge of the views of that Itody iu reference to it, might render the question still more complicated and ditlieull of adjustment. For these reasons, I invite Ihe consideration of the Senate to the proposal of the British Government for the settlement of the Oregon question, and ask their advice on the subject. My opinions and my action on the Oregon question were fully made known to Congress in my annual message of the 'd December last, and the opinions therein expressed remain unchanged. Should the Senate, by the Constitutional majority required for the ratification of Treaties, advise the acceptance of this proposition, or nil vise it wilh such modifications as they may upon full deliberation deem proper, 1 shall conform my notion in their advice. Should the Senate, however, decline by such Constitutional majority to give such advice, or to express an opinion on the subject, 1 shall consider it my duty lo reject the offer. I also communicate herewith an extract from a despatch of Ihe Secretary of Slute to the Minister of the United States at London, under dale nf the leth of April last, directing him in accordance with the joint Resolutions of Congress, "Concerning the Oregon Territory," to deliver the Notice to the British Government for the abrogation of Ihe Convention of (tth August, ; and also, a copy of the Notice trans-milted to Inm for tint purmsc, together with extracts from a despatch of that Minister to the Secretary of State, hearing date, the tmh Mity last. JAMES K. POLK. Washington, June 1(1, IHIti. From Mexico. The New Orleans pnicr of the l!Uh contain advices Iroin Mexico, received via Havana, of the same dale as those already received by an arrival at iNew York. Some additional items of interest are given, which we subjoin. Shortly slier the meeting of the Mexican Congress, thnl hotly proceeded to organize the Executive p wer, by a decree that it should he deposited provisionally in n magistrate elected by a plurality of Ihe voles of I on-gross, and that a Vieo President should lie elected nt I the same time to net in the nbsetice of the President This decree was passed on Ihe 0th of June, nud on 'the 1'lh tho chcliou was held. Gen. Parcdis was EroDMr or tiik AiiviimruTion. We give below from a correspondent of the New Orleans Commercial, a pretty specimen of Ihe mnnner in which Mr. Polk's pet nre fishing oil out of the pocket of tho people. Like the case put in the Inble of the " Boys and frogs," " It may be fun for them but it is death to us!" Read and re Heel upon it all vo whose nurses will have to suffer for this rank wastefulness hereafter. See how those who art paid to look after the interest of tho people suffer long arms to be thrust up to Ihe elbows in the Treasury because Uncle Sam pays for it! He says : .Xnshrifle Manner. "I cannot deprecate, in terms sufficiently severe, the conduct of those whose business it wns to land our troops, equipments, etc. We were detained on board the ttndiaka at an expense of two hundred dollars per diem to the Government, for at least thirty eight hours after anchoring ouhide the bnr. Nor did the outrnge umiii the United Mntcs stop here: by contract, the Captnin of Ihe ship was to receive two hundred dollars daily, for every day he was detained near Drain Island. We landed it must be reinemlered, the '1th of May, and the ship was not discharged until yesterday, Ihe Nth uf June ! Thus the Government must pay four thousand four hundred dollars for Ihe twcnl v-one day' detention of this vessel, when every particle ol freight might have bee discharged in four or five days ! I stale fact : let others interpret them." A Difference ol Opinion 1 L ii tho tool of thu Wooster Bunk, is a candidate for Congress on the same ticket. Is it possible that any portion of the Democracy can he seduced into the siipimrt of such tkmgs? Hut as Lahm is Ihe regular Whig candidate on tho Wing ticket with Griswold, it is reasonable to suppose they will be both treated as they deserve from the hands of Dt mot rats. Okia Press ( Ijicofoto.) Gen. Luim is a liberal Democrat, and one of the ablest and best men in Ohio. Two yeurs ago he was a candidate before the nominating convention, and Whs lieaten only fteo votes, by Mr. Starktreathtr, Ihe present Representative of that district. Gen. I.ahui cheerfully submitted to the decision of the convention, and used til his influence in Itehalf of his successful competitor. The Sturk county Democratic Convention which assembled soon niter, nominated Gen. Lahm for the Stale Senate, by a handsome majority, but the Hards turned in at the election and defeated him, by casting their voles for the Whig candidate! There can in scarcely a doubt that lien. L. would be nominated by a Democratic Convention; but if nominated, the Hard would most likely again combine wilh the Whigs to defeat him. He therefore chooses to refer the mailer directly lo the people the best course, by the by.
