PUBLIC MovEMENTs.-Of late, there have
been sundry movements among the gentlemen of
the press, and the spirit which has animated them
" in their goings out and comngs in,'' seems to
have affected the gentlemen of the bar-we do
not mean of the bar Of justice-but of the tavorns
Within the last week, the Franklin House, for
several years conducted with great ability, by Mr.
Horatio Blake, has changed hands, and Mr. Pres
ton Hodges, has taken it into his keeping, and
under his special protection. Mr.. Blake goes to
N. York, to take charge of the American Hotel
recently fitted up in Broadway, where we hope,
he will meet with that success he so richly merits
We recommend him to the good feelings of Major
Noah, Doctor Coleman of the Post, and Colonel
Stone Of the Commercial, with an assurance that
they will find at the Hotel, the best of spark
ling Champagne, and rich and well provided
lardcr. Whilst Mr.. Blake has been with us, he
has, by the correct manner in which he conducted
the Franklin House, secured many friends and
the appreciation of the public generally. and all
who know him, regret that he has left u.s.

Hon JOHN HOLMES OF NAiNr.--Our old
friend, John Holmes of Maine, is making up his
mouth, TO partake of the sweets Of another politi-
cal campaign, and is endeavouring to eat himself
into reruiarity. by the Name Palladium, recev
ed bv the last mall we perceive that the Hon.
John, partook Of dinner, got up and given to
him by few friends, on the Sd instant, on which
occasion he made speech, in which he said many
pretty things about the present administration the
prospects of grand political union of parties,
and all that kind of thing, according to Hoylc."
Whether he can, cannot gull the natives, by
his specifications, into a belief of his sincerity
and devotion to the good of the country, is mat
ter upon which he cannot undertake to decide -
but we shall not be surprised, five find him an
nounccd, at no distant day, candidate to repre-
sent the good people of Maine, in the United
States Congress.--Ifhe offers his services to the
people, we hope they will not be accepted, as we
anxious that he should have leisure, to settle
the little matters in dispute between u.s. He
promised to prove to our satisfa ction, that the
British Parliament justified General Jackson, in
numbering Arbuthnot and Ambrster, but he has
not yet done so. Friend John! ifyou are at les
ure. let's hear from you. Say you aye or nay
We II treat you gently.

An ARcApE.--lt affords us much and sincere
satisfa ctsn to announce to our readers, that our
enterprising townsmen, Messrs. Benjamin and
Charles Dyer, associated with Cyrus Butler, ESQ.
have made an arrangement for the erection of a
splendid Arcade, TO run from Westminster street
to Weybosset street, and that il is exI ected that
the building of the edifce will be commenced this
spring. The location Of such structure, at the
point proposed. will bring into the market,
large amount Of property, which from its stua-
ton but little better than useless to its owners.
and at the same time, open new facilisios for
trade.
In announcing the fact, that an Arcade is con-
templated, we cannot refrain from coneratulating
our citizens on the increasing prosperity of the
;-and we should dsobcy the dictates o"our
feelings, were we to neglect to make honour,ble
mention, of the zeal and enterprise, ma nfeste by
the Messrs. Dyers, in whatever relates to the
best interests of the public. Through their exer-
tons, the aspect of the west part Of the town,
has, within a few years, been very materially al
tered and amended, and almost every section of
Irze.
We must not omit TO mention, that Mr.. Butler,
has been some time engaged, in making prepara
tions for the erection of splendid Hotel, at the
head of his wharf on the estate, formerly owned
by the late Col Zepheniah Andrews.
AS the spring opens, the tide of Improvement is
visible in its loodings; and we do not recollect
that so many buildings were ever commenced in
year, there have been this season. The
mammoth building, of which we spoke some time
since, about to be located on the lands of the
Dorrance Company, Eddy's Point, has been
commenced, and an unusual number of masons
are to be employed, it will probably be finished in
the course of two or three months 1t will be
occupied MAJ chine shop, grist mill, and found
cry, and will, at moderate computation, give
subsistence to four hundred people, and employ
mcnt to at least one half of that number.
There are several other buildings of Importance
already commenced, and among others, an ee-
CANT house of worship, for the Pacific Congrega-
tional Society. This edice is to be located on
Rchmond-street, in delightful situation, NEAR
the old Church, erected by the late Reverend Nr.
Snow and will add much to the beauty of that
part of the town In future number, We shall
publish "OUR RAMBLEs ABOUT TOWN." in
which we shall endeavour to afford the public a
correct view of the increasing importance Of this
community. We regret that present engage
ments, forbid our performing duty, equally pleas
ant and IL terostng.

CAUTIoN.-We beg leave to caution the pub
lie, against walking under the caves Of Central
Building, whilst that structure is undergoing re-
pairs. The Mechanics engaged in the work, are
compelled to hoist their materials, and there is
great danger Of their falling on the ! cad of the
passenger The danger can be very easily avoid
ed. and we beg our citizens to be careful, and not
unnecessarily endangor their lives. BY observing
the " ten pace distance" broken head, or neck
may be avoidcd.--It is hoped that all will profit
by timely caution.

board Of our worthy friend, the proprietor Of the
Journal, was by the mechanics knocked down,
from its lofty estate; but fortunately no one was
beneath it. We are now constrained TO ash, il

John .Adams.-Ths patriot has been justly COM
mended for the selection of John MARSHALL to be
Chief Justice of the supreme court of the United
States, the office which he still fills. This, however,
was but one of his judicious selections.
In l77o, John Adams rose on the floor OF Con-
gress and nominated George Washington to be APP
pointed Commander, Chief Of all the forces raised
or to be raised in defence Of American liberty. And
what made this nomination the more merltorlous
was, that it was entirely unexpected by Washing
ton and his friends.
The same John Adams in 1876 took the dlifdent
but highly talented and patriotic Jefferson by the
hand and led him TO the temple Of fame. by hrs
activity and influence with the members Of Con-
yress, he procured the appointment Of Mr. Jefferson
as member Of the committee chosen to draw up
the Declaration of independence, and giving him
his own vote in addition to those he procured tor
him. caused him to be chairman of that committee
The opportunity thus afforded to Mr.. Jefferson,
opened the road TO his future fame. His drawing up
the Declaration of independence is known to all but
his difidence as speaker prevented him from sup
porting it on the floor of Congress. 1t was, how
ever sustained by his illusrious friend John Adams,
in one Of the most powerful speeches made to
deberative body. Congress had been nearly par.
alyzed by the ingenious objections of the eloquent
Dickinson but the irresistible reasoning and elo-
uuence of John Adams, from its almost dying EN-
bers, rekinted blaze OF liberty which illunined
our country. and is spreading its influence through
out the world.

the trial that the others. Couro appears about so
