of the insurgents increase daily. Near
ly all the troops cantoned at Breslau
and Upper Silesla have been ordered
10 move to the frontier of Cracow. The
young man who robbed the diligence
from Breslau to Lipowiec has been ar
rested.
1t was reported In Paris on Sunday
that the Russians had assaulted Cracow,
reduced half of ii to ashes, and driven
out the Poles, who, in their retreat, en-
countered large body Of Austrians,

The movement appears TO have been
made with the boldness and determina-

Polish nation, but the numbers which
will soon be brought against them rem
der it next to impossible that tfefnsar-

The Polish refugees in France were
divided into two parties, but have laid

of cooperating against the common en-

SPECIE IN THE WoRLD.-'BicknelPs
Reporter, Counterfeit Detector and
Prices Current, of March 24tk, lS46,
says:
1T is supposed that the specie in Eu-
rope and America is at least $4,500,-
100000, and that the United States is
entitled to $257, 7,OOO,OOO-being about
SIG per head for every inhabitant Of
the whole country
Our proportion Of the specie Of the
world, then, is considerably above the
amount Of bank notes which we use in.
stead. This being the fact, who doubts
the propriety Of returning to the con.
stitutional currency as soon as possible?
For, if we consent TO do without paper
money, it is just as certain that we shall
have our full proportion of gold and
silver, as it is certain that water will
run down hill. Letthe people examine
this subject calmly, and without being
influenced by the interested cIamor Of
bankers, and they will all be hard mon
ey men at once.-Stark Go. Dem.

Who Paws Him?

The whig papers of Ohio are copying
the sayings Of certain broker in New
York by the name of Thompson, in re.
ference to the soundness of the Ohio
banks. We should like very much to
know how this shark knows any thing
about the condition Of the Ohio wildcat
banks. The people here know that
their notes are worth one and two per
cent. less than gold and silver; and,
knowing this, they beg leave to tell Mr..
Thompson that II he will attend 10 the
shaving shops at home, he will pro-
baby have enoughto do. We imagine
that he would have said as much for
Galipolis. Urdana, or Granville, one
month before they broke, if the banks
had requested it, and offered the neces'
sary inducement. 1t would no doubt
be fine harvest for the bankers and
brokers if they could, by putting each
other, get few millions of their rags
into the hands of the people, and then
burst, bank. like, and leave the people
with the notes in their hands, to become
prey for the agents sent about by the
banks to buy up their own paper at q
quarter or one half their face. Quite
generous, Mr.. Thompson, to voluntee,
