With The motives of Mr. Rves and his followers, any
further than is manifested by their several addresses 10
the people of Virginia, have nothing to DO. We oilen
find il difficult clearly ascertain own true motives
to certain tendencies, and thereoIe, should be careful
in nprting motives to others. One OF two general pro
positions may be safely affirmed Of MIR Rves and his
Conservatives in the Legislaue-They either expect to
swallow down both the Federal Wings and ihe Demo
cratic Republicans, or they n'end to become wing con
serves-Whig sweetmsats and be swallowed by the
Wings Neurals they cannot be- and 10 evident they
do not wish the people TO regard them neurals; why
trouble with long and querulous haIangues: They
expect all the little dogs, Tray, Blanche Sweetheart and
all to 20 to the polls and vndcae their high claims to
exclusive patriotism YEA The "proud Senator from the
Old Dominion (as he called the other day by still

About the year $780, if the writer is not mistaken,
the United States Bank commenced expanding iis ope
