BALTIMORE. March 20, 1853.


Great anxiety exists here concerning tbs
Baltimore Appointments One day it is
currently reported that Col Davies has
been decided upon for Collector, and the
next that ex Governor Thomas is the sue
cessful competitor, and so the reports fly.
Col. Davies is most decidedly the choice
of the Baltmoreans. and emphatically the
favorite of our merchants he is both capa-
BILE and deserving, being one of our oldest
merchants and esteemed citizens, giving
entire satisfaction whilst in the capacity of
Mayor, and showing by his administration
that heis wholly competent for the discharge
of any public duty the citizens or Govern
ment may devolve upon him. and if the
Collectorship was given by the consent of
the people of Baltimore, at the ballot box.
Col. Jacob G. Davies could almost get the
unanimous consent Of the citizens His
popularity is unprecedented, and, should he
fail to receive that which is so ardently
wished for by his constituents, there will
be no equal to the dissatisfaction that must
necessarily arise from the appointment of
any others.
Mr.. Thomas's popularity is not so strong
as many suppose in this city, his friends,
or the most of them, not being citizens of
Baltim> re, but occupy that portion of the
State so directly opposed to the interests
and welfare of the City of Monuments.
Mr. Thomas made himself popular in
that section by the opposition which he
manifested towards our city at the State
capital, yet, nevertheless, he was elected
Comptroller of the State by the vote of
Baltimore, but had Mr.. Thomas been run
separately, and not connected with the rest
of the State ticket, he would have been de-
feated by as large n majority as the votes
he fell behind the rest of the Democratic
candidates, all of whom received considera-
bly, more than he, thus showing that be was
the least popular among them.
l do not wish to be understood that 7
make an attack upon the honorable gentle
man, but wish it understood that the citi-
zens of Baltimore wish their Offices filled bv
men who will study their interests, and by
men who have resided in their midst long
enough to satisfy them that they are useful
and beneficial to their community, cannot
say, and strictly conine myself to the truth,
that MIR. Thomas has been an ardent friend
to Baltimore and a promoter of her interests.
Nothing can be said of the talents of the
gentleman, but with al he does not, and
will not, suit the citizens of this Monumen
tai City.
do not write this because of any politi.
cal or personal feeling, but simply in behalf
our own interests and our rights; and, as
citizen Of Baltimore, feel that have
right to advocate such measures as Justice
claims. MARS

have all a most marvellous tendency to the
"interesting" condition. Thus far the pro-
life Victoria has led the column, but the
rev Empress of France promises to carry
off the palm. A Paris correspondent of the
New York Express, resident of the city,
aud close in the secrets of state, thus writes
to that paper:
at is scarcely fair to repeat the very del
icate inuendoes respecting the position of
the Empress Eugene. Psychologists may,
perhaps, be able to explain the circumstance,
