    MRTTUVES.This gentleman has appeared every where at once in o

    circular letter to his constituents. The Richmond Whig,the Alexandria Gazette, the Fredericksburg Arena, andthe Madisoman, simultaneously come down upon uswith this overwhelming appeal. It would seem that allthe opposition presses have had copies communicated,that they might discharge them in platoon, and so mokethe greater impression. The National Intelligencer, asbeing the big gu.i of the Opposition, with becoming tact,has been kept in reserve, that it might not appear tohave participated so fully in the confidence of the newconvert as the minor organs of Whigery. Virginiamight not prove so tractable, if the hand put forth tocontrol her should manifest itself at the same moment inthe principal as well as the secondary engines of the Op-

    This sudden coup-dc main upon Virginia contains aspecial call upon our attention. The author evidentlydesires to be considered a persecuted man, and is particularlyanxious to make the impression that he has suf,fered some sanguinary infliction at our hands. He says:

    ' 1 have been the object ol deep political resentment,and occasionally of fierce and bitter denunciation. Butwithin the last three or lour months, the storm of denunciationhas gathered new force, end been directed withunsparipg fury against me. During that period, theilobespierrean Cress at Washington, under tlie immediatecontrol of the Administration, has dailj- exerted allits diabolical resources of falsehood end defamation toblacken uiy character, assail my motives, and misrepresentmy conduct."However blood-thirsty the RoLc.-pierrenn press may

    have shown itself,accniding to Mr. Kives's own cotifession, he has been very kindly treated by the head ofthe Administration. lie tells the people of Virginia,!that"There was nothing in the way of official advance-

    merit, which 1 could have expected or de.-ired, that wasnot, not merely offered but prt-ssed upon me, in liremost earnest and Haltering manner, bv the President, atthe first moment of organizing Jiia Administration."And then, speaking of the great party in tins country

    which sustains iht' Aumiriis:raii«n, lie adds:"1 enjoyed, at least, as much ol its favor, and was as

    likely to obiain it= future support, in aid of the ambitiousaspirations ascribed to rne, as any other man."

    his lack upon those golden prospects? He does notleave the people of Virginia, bcf. re whom he lays hiscomplaints, in the dark as to this great grief, with whichlie opens Ins piper :

    " The Rolespierrean press (lie tells thpin) has culledfrom its vocabulary of abuse all its most hackneyed termsof political vituperation, such as Federalist, Renegade,Deserter, Traitor, and by attaching them to my naine,has sought to make it the object of general odium andreprobation."Although these phrases fall fir rhort cf Uootl shedding,

    which the epithet*, "fiobespitrrean" and "diabolical,"applied to us, would intimate as the character of the ofleucc committed agoiiwl Mr. Rives, yet, mitigated asthe accusation appears iu the specification, truth compelsus to plead not guilty to the charge as preferred. Wedeny the "political vituperation alleged, and siy thatwe have not used ill" term "Federalist, renegade, deserter,traitor," in tile form specified, ai d, "by attachingthem in his ["Mr Rives's] name, sough: to make it theobject ofgeneral odium and re, rotation;" and we demand( libit at' lha wrilit'ir wlierelri it id pretended (|;C Word*aforesaid are so attachedWe have seen ifuiu the firet that Mr. Rives was reachedto make an issue with us. We have avoided it

    with great caution, because we were conscious it wouldbe a most unequnl contest Mr. Rives on his part, hasagain and again appealed to the people of Virginia, androundly asserted lhat we were the assailant. As ihereis now no avoiding the question, we will put our side ofit before the people, and let them judge between us iiulwe must take lime to make a retrospect of the record.Meanwhile, lest our adversary should have too much advantagefrom the affectionate manner in which he addresseshimself to l'the State rchich cave hint Lirth," wemust tell Virginia that she also gave us birth, which, asit cost very littie travail, we fear she Ins InrenUen

    f (itobe, March HO.AppRorr.iiTioNi run 1839..The opposition have heretotoreendeavored to deceive the public into a br!i>-f

    that the Democratic Adininistra'ions had become quitsextravagant, carrying up the appropriations to above$43 000,000 per annum. The iil'empl had success fur awhile, until it was shown that of thPEe large amountsabout the one-half were for occasional, contingent, andextraordinary objects, no way connected with the expensesof the Government; and that, deducting these, thecardinal feature of Democracy, that of economy, wouldbe eeen to have been duly attended to. So it is of theyear 1839 The appropriations are, in round numbers,$3s.l)G0,0o0; but. after the proper deductions, it will beeeen that llteexpensesof the Government are conside-ablvbelow the one-halfo( that sum. The first item to ledeductedis $10.00*3,000 lor the contingent calling into serviceof fiily thousand men to repel, if necessary, the ag-gressions of Grpat Britain. The second item is ,C;5,100,000for the I'ost Office Department, not one do! ar ofwhich is paid from the Federal Treasury, but ccmeswholly from the Post Office itself. These t wo items reducethe thirty eight to twenty-three millions Thencomes $1.6"»0.00ft,for the expenses of the Florida war.over and above the expense of the regular army. Thencomee $1 703,000 for the Indian Department, the greaterpart of whieh refers to the removal a,id subsistence ofthe emigrating Indians, and compensation for their prSperty and lands. This makes three and a hslf millionsmore, and reduces the expenses below twenty millions.Then comes the pensions, which constitute no part of theci/ientts of the Government, but are gratuities bestowedfor past services, real or supposed The appropriationsof the last session for these, are two and a half millions;but nenrly as much tnore will have to be paid under per-

    manenl pension Inws; but n» only two and a half mil-lions are in tin? appiopiiation bills of this year, only thatBum will be counted; and this will bring down the txpeine*to eighteen millions. Then comes $500,000 forthe protection of the Northern frontier, and $80,000 forthe protection of the Western frontier, and tor the Westernfrontier military road, $52,000; nil ttiree of thesebeing extraordinary objects of expenditure, incident toour relations with the British and the Indians. Theymake $030 POO. Thpn comes numerous heavy appropriationsfor public buildings, to wit: $100,000 for the newTreasury; $150,000 for the new Post Office; $50,000 forthe new" Patent Other; $30,000 for the new jail in Washingtoncity; $I5II,00U lor the new custom-house in N.York; $7"»,()0U lor the new custom house in Boston Deduct all these, and you have less than 17 millions for theexpenses of the Government Then comes $90,000 forthe survey of the coasts of the L'r.itrd Stales, and alsoth-"large sums for fortifying and defending the countryand the increase of the navy, which being permanentobjpcls for the security of the country, have no more todo with the expenses of the Government than the fineing and improving a plantation has to do with (he personal expenses of a fumily. Make these riir deductions,and others which might he named, and the expenses ofthe Government for the year Is39, will he found to beon the siiictfat scale of economy, and such as to inviteand defy the attacks of the Opposition.The authentic list of every class of expenditures was

    published in the Globe of March 27; and we would suggestto our Democratic friends throughout the L'niontint they should carefully look it over,and then lay by thepaper for future reference, to be read for the Federalists ifthey should attempt again to deceive the people aboutextravagant appropriations, as they did last year.. lit.

During this lime they have increasedthe idinary city expenses from a million anil a quarterto THIU.K MILLIONS FIVE 11 UN'DBLD THOUSANDDUi LARS :!!LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM TAMPICO.Nmv Omi-.tss, March 2t».We are indebted to

    Mes-rs. E A- J Andrews, consignees of the schooner JB. Wool!old, for papers and recent intelligence fromTampicu. The Waolford sailed from Tmtpico the 17thMarch. Al the lime of her departure the Governmenttroops were marching mi that city from two or threedifferent points. General C< a was advancing from theSouth, via Tuspan. and it whs auppusra iiau leacln-Uthe vicinity ol Tampa. Another army uxuler GeneralArista, was making approaches IVniii the direction ofSi. Louis..Tin' reports concerning the distance of theadvancing Brinies, es well as tli-ir numerical strength,were contradictory. Some represented their numheraat between six and eight thousand; others at not halfthat nuinbrr; whilst it is geiietally conceded that theforce is more than sufficient to ovt rcouie the Federaltroops. The falter were al! retiring upon Tuuipico .Urrea, the commander in-chief, was hourly expectedthere with Ins army, which was variously estimated atfrom ?uch signias we have witnessed within the last week, in .N. Yorkand in Ohio, in the declarations of the W hig prepp, andin the resolutions of a W big House, it behooves us tobe constantly on tlie alert. The larger mass of the friendsof the Whigcandidale, in these regions, are uguinst us.the gieat mass of Mr Van Daren's friends are xciihus How can we lieritate in our choice? Mr. Van Dmren is the ".Northern man with Southern feelings " Heis strong for us where the danger is greatest against us.lrt this respect, lie Ins a deciJed advantage over hisWestern competitor.

    jy/tit* .Vctiunul Convention.The W'hig members of both Houses of the Legislatureof Louisiana met on the l'.'tii ult., arid appointed

    ten Delegates to attend the Gener^ Whig Convention.They recommended Mr* Clay as llrfir candidate, but atthe same time "instructed their delegates to unite in thesupport of any other individual who receives a majorityof the votes in said Convention."The Cincinnati Republican (Gen. Harrison's special

    organ) eeeins to be dissatisfied witli tire friends of Mr.Clay. It says, "If our Clay friends form (lie majorityin the Convention, and ehoose to risk the consequencesof their selection, we shall not murmur. Our warningand admonition is given in advance." And it adds, '-/jthe W'higs choose to sacrifice Ohio, Indiana and I'enn!gylvsnia, how can those States do leps than acquiesce?""Mr Van Duren is very well aware that his only hopefor re-election is in the nomination of Mr. Clay: hencethe cause of this important change of tactics among hissubalterns." (rwr. van uuren is umc w cupt- wim \viayor Harrison, or the "double-shotted ticket.") The C.Republican adds in a desponding tone, "Gen. Harrison,the soldiers who served under him. and all other friendsand supporters may as-well hang up their fiddle. 'Thehall is broke.' Mr. Clay is certain to be the candidate."lie it so. For one, we are ready for the field.

    Mr. Biddies ResignationThe .V. Y Evening I'ost said the other day, that the

    Whigs would believe any humbug. We thought theexpression somewhat strong, but really the avidity withw hich they are listening to, and propagating the report,that Mr. \'an Duron means to make him Secretary of theTreasury, is a strong confirmation of the proposition .We understand, that some of 'he Whige, upon our streets,are attempting to propagate this humbug, and makeit a rround not only of suspicion, but of attack, againstMr. Van Duren. They must be gentlemen of very easyfaith, or of very uncharitable tempers.We can scarcely believe the evidence of our senses,

    when we find such a sagacious Whig, ns our respectedfriend of the Fredericksburg Arena, holding forth in thefollowing strain."It is very possible that a desire of repose,and a belief that the affairs of the Hank are in aneminently prosperous condition may of themselves accountfor the»tep taken by Mr lliddle.but the knowingones will not be contented with so obvious an explanation.They pertinaciously insist that there are coveitreasons. Some assign an alleged crisis in the atfairs ofthe Bank.others a check given to his autocratic powerby the Directory, which lie could not brook But thestrangest rumor of all, is, that tltP resigna'ion is preliminaryto bis acceptance of toe Treasury Department s;Washington. Whilst we cannot say thai we place confidencein the rumor, icr. are far from treating it asutterly idle Stranger things have coine to piss, duringthe present Administration," Ac , Ac, Ac."Itis alleged that Mr. Forsyth has been lately in l'hila*delphia, and that he was much closelted with Mr Bid.1«. ..- ii..i :Ute. m any mie. »c art- isiunn uy 'in- jouMina *»» inn«ccities that, on Saitirdav. the rumor was very current inNew York, Philadelphia and Baltimore.".The Alexandiia Gazette indeed says the report is "allfudge. MrBiddlc seeks repose, and, we dare say, that lie retiressimply because lie is tired ''

    Flow far this last punning solution be the true one, wewill not undertake to determine.but ns to the report olhis taking the Treasury Department, the Globe has unfortunately for the liutnbuggers given it the roup dr. gracein the following paragraph on Tuesday Evening. Howcruelis it in the Globe thus to bring down the rumor,almost before it had taken wing:"The account nnd explanation ot tnis transaction, given

    by the parties themselves,at leastso far as they have seenfit to raise the curtain, will be found in our columns todayThat a 6tep of this character, taken at this moment,and so unexpectedly ushered to the public, shouldhave given rise to many and contradictory surmises, irnot strange. Among the rumors to which the affair hasgiven birth, there is one attributing the resignation to asupposed arrangement, too preposterous in alt its ports trrequire refutation, by which the Bauk is to be selecteeas the fiscal agent of the Government, and Mr. Biddlchimself translated to the Treasury Department; withoudoubt, a stock jobbing report.
