giving an account of the total defeat of the Wings in
that city, has astounded every politician in this lati-
tude. No body expected so sudden and complete a
revolution and every one is trying to find out the
reasons that have caused such change in pub
lie sentiment. Ia the recent elections in the
western states it is generally alledged that the pub
lie land question and the opposition to General Har
rison caused the defeats Of the wings in Indiana IL
linois and Tennessee.
Bat no such reasons onght to exist in Baltimore.
What then is the cause Of the change?
We are very much disposed to believe that the
conduct and policy Of the banks our large cities,
ara at the bottom Of these changes. Among the
mercantile interest strong feeling of hostility has
been growing up against the banks, particularly du-
ring the last year. Merchants are becoming loco
foeos in opinion daily. The banks have been build
ing splendid palaces, and making large dividends,
while they have been crushing commerce at the
same time by large rates Of exchange, interest," and
profits In this city onethrd of the merchants feel
as hostile to the banks the verest locofocos. In
Philadelphia and Baltimore, they probably feel alike
hostile.
In Short the conduct Of the banks during the last
year is making splendid vnter-rev olution, and
Will probably re-elect Mr. Van Buren, in every At
iantic state In fact we would not bet a sixpence
that the wings would carry New York.

made through the gardens of C. H. Hall Esq, which
laid opfsn v~.r
sed with sheets ore and salt water for rearing oys-
tiers, rising grounds covered with shrubbery long
pentine walks embowered with evergreens, &c. &c.
On sitting Down to dinner, the Rev. Dr. Wainwright

On the Same day the opening Of the Springfield
Rail Road celebrated at Springfield, Mass
This rad opens the whole line from Springfield
through Worcester, to Boston, and we suppose in q
brief year they will extend to Albany. The
Harlem Rail Road IS only the FIRST section OF the
Rail Road TO Albany; and if the next legislature Do
not look to this NATTER Boston will tap the whole
state Of New York.

made that day TO look At the British Quses, dur
ing which they sustained the important loss Of din
Her. About year ago they received an invitation
TO visit the Sirius her second arrival here. The
hour was about 4 o'clock. When they west
aboard they found splendid dinner, smoking hot,
waiting their arrival. This happened to be
very annoying, a. each Of the members lad taken
his disner before they made the visit. To offer .
body Of legislators and judges good dinner, when
they had already been well stated, was any thing
but agreeable-aecordiDsly they looked upon IL As
insult. Last Monday they received m invitation
to visit the Queen, and expecting going aboard.a
splendid dinner the judges and sesators, Of course,
took 10 preserve their appetes in the highest
style Of excellence; bat alas going ab'ard they
found no dinner-Bothing hot-oniy few bottles Of
ehanpaigne and crackers; for Capt Roberts busy
signing bdIs Of ,ding and clearing out the whole day.
Here was severe disappointment. Accordingly they
went home in great Indignation, asd the Chancellor
