OHIO AND MICHIGAN.

Z :
Our readers ere epprised that the
governor of Ohio is getting ready with
. strong military force to take posses
sion of the disputed territory. The
governor Of Michigan is no less active
in his preparations OF resistance. The
Detroit Free Press OF the 22d ult. says
tba, on The day previous the legislative
cooncil appropriated $4,000 dollars
10 meet the emergency, and that every
arrangement would be made TO give the
Ohio troops VAIN reception. The
same paper contains the following
paragraph:
Var! Var ! !-Orders have been
issued for volunteers to rendezvous at
Mulholland's, in the county OF Monroe,
on the first Of September next, for the
purpose of resisting the military en-
croschments of the state of Ohio. The
territory it is expected will be on the
alert, aud we understand services will
be accepted from all quarters.
We do no, see how this matter canter.

Gazette, September 2.
q The Columbus (Ohio,) State
Journal of Saturday last, after giving the
above "order" observes;
Thus il will be seen, that the Legis-
lstive Council Of Michigan are deter
mined to enforce jurisdiction over the
! disputed territory, and have backed
their proposition with an appropria-
ton Of SIS 900 dollars for the purpose
also, that The head quarters of the
army have been established, and or
ders issued for the assembling Of the
troops, &c. We anticipate the most
serious consequences from these reck-
less procee dings, and see no probable
4 ity that they will be averted without
Ilshe Shedding Of blood.
