Extract of a letter from Ohio, dated

APRIL l. 1910.
Wheat is from 40 to As cents, and few purchasers
at these rates With the fall Of wheat, the hurrah
for Van Buren," becomes feeble, and their pulse
beats slow. A political revolution is going on in this
and adjacent counties which is perhaps without
parallel in the history Of this country. Those who
have been leaders in the Administration ranks begin
to faer; others whose faith has been less strong,
come out boldly and renounce the party. "Old
Tipp" goes il NTH loo@ness.
al have letter from -, Of, in which he
after reviewing the acts OF the Administration, and
expressing his unqualified disapprobation Of Them
closes by saying that "their whole tendency is to
break down all but the officeholders." Mr. A. has
been leading man in the party, and by some con-
sidered as the great apostle Of democracy" His
influence will undoubtedly do much to effect
change in others who have belonged TO his party
"Our dgnfed Legislature, as you will have
learnt have adjourned after having dsgraced them
selves and the State by their brawls this winter
more ignorant, sefwilled, hide bound locofoco set
than that majority has never herded together"
The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1840-04-11
PENNSYLVANIA.

The policy OF Gov. Porter and his friends in the
Legislature in relation to the banks, seems 10 have
produced much dissatisfaction in the ranks of the
Administration party. A meeting has been held in
Philadelphia, Mr. Henry Horn presiding, at which
the conduct Of the county members voting with Gov.
Porters friends was strongly censured, and "wan-
ton and cruel attack was made on the late Gov.
Wolff" One Of the members, Mr.. Lee, who voted
for the resumption BILL was threatened with violence,
and was obliged TO take refuge with Prohonotary.
Another meeting in Northern Liberties resolved
thai the State Administration had been guilty OF the
blacklist ingratitude 70 the people," in deserving
the cause Of Democracy" &c.
On the 4th OF March last, we said in this paper,
that from that day Loco-focosm would be Frustrated
in PENNSYLVANIA, or Gov. Porter would fall Our
predictions are fully verified. Loco-iocoism has
been baiiled, defeated, and we trust efecualy put
down Gen. Harrison will carry the State.

THE NATIONAL DEFENCE.

1t will be seen, by reference to our congress
sonal columns, that the House OF REPRE-
sentatiyes has, on motion Of Mr.. W'se, made
a call on the Secretary of War for full and
connected system of national defence, en-
bracing steam vessels and other vessels OF
war, floating batteries for coast and harbor
defence and national foundries and the in
ternal means auxiliary to these for transpona-
ton and other warlike uses by land The ad-
ministration and its partsans, while they are
every now and then sounding the alarm of
war for political effect, have done nothing
planned nothing for the protection Of The
country, should such an exigency arise, SO
busy have they been with their electioneering
schemes Ii is TO be hoped that the resolu-
ton Of Mr.. Wise will stimulate them to some
measure of vigilance and activity, and prompt
them to take some time from the prosecution
