A port'ion of the Whig presses has been endeavoring to excite tho great merchants to rebellion against the republic; advises Ihem no take the laws into their own hands, re Tuse to pay the custom houses duties, &c. ifcc., unless Mr. Van Buren revokes the specie circular and orders the receivers at '(he 4and offices to lake whatever trash spec ulators may choose to offer for the public lands. This language preceded the whig meeting of merchants in New York which Hrindly undertook to instruct President Van Uurcn in his duty. When placards not Jialf so incendiary, announced a meeting of working men in the same city, troops were placed under arms to overawe them, and the conservative press teemed with denun ciations of anarchy, lawless mobs, and op positioii to tho constituted authorities. So true' is it that "it is safer for one man to .tcal a horse than. for anothor to look oyer a hedge;" ... , So far has this lawless and sanguinary spirit prevailed, that one of these fanatic .merchants, too proud to 'remonstrate' with (he peoples I'roaulcnt, oilers to ho one oi a committoc of 10,000 to take a 'summary course' with Mr. Van Uurea. incgcn- llemaii'-s contingent valor is wondrous uis oreel he waits but for 0,91)9 eomrades to uid'liiin 'in rtglitmg thc littlellutclimah, who must be 'particularly "hard to hold" if it takes, so many to reduce him. So far the recruiting has not been 'succcssful-not even Ursan Dabhs, whoso hhmo V6 see ap pendod to the call for1 tho meeting, has join cfl the standard although the mode of rea soiling accords with his 'walloping' svs- torn. " CJ! 1- ...... . ounuusiy, uic 'oig bugs' ol commerce have pushed their .claims on tho govern njent so far, that tho people may well be gin to question the justice of their assump tions. 1 hey assume from the first that tho only intent of diir government la to 'foster and protect them to aid them in their schemes of monopoly and aggrandizement, and to double and turn in its policy as may suit their emergencies. The great body of mo peopie, tnc larmcrs, mechanics, &c, are treated as if they were of no account at all in the country their interests are not spoken of their industry is left to take care of itself, while the government is de manded to devote itself to tho furtherance of exchanges, stocks, and mercantile finess ing. A few hundred great dealers who upon the StrCllfftll of Hank fiirilitins. 1W1 imilnr. j taken to buy and sell the products of a na tion anu who, upon a lew hundreds, have been trading to the extent of millions, have uccomc losing gamesters. Not content with the regular gains of trade, they went ucepiy into tno gambling transactions ol the day in the hope of sweeping millions at a single stroKc. The splendid bubble burst; engagements had been made, to meet which the whole currency of the country, rags and all was inadequate, and of course they 11 .i i in . . couiu not oc luuiueu. A general crash a mong the millionaires has been the conse quencc: the English and American dealers being involved in the same mighty combi nation, have reciprocated the pressure upon each other, until the failures in a few of our principal cities amount to a sum which the specie means of both countries could not satisfy. This state of things the causes of which areas apparent as the sun, is char ged upon governmental interference with the currency: the gold .bill (for which Web ster voteuij the veto -on .the u. o. Hank, which bank exists in undiminished strength, accoruing to Uitlulc; and last and greatest oi .an tne specie circular, which by requi ring -constitutional currency for the public lanus, ncci;cu speculation, and materially lessened the extent of the pressure. Even supposing this last to have had all the effect its enemies charge, it could not operate the one hundredth part of .the mercantile and stock deficiencies. Tho great aim of the democratic adminis tration has been to place the business of the country upon a solid and specie basis: and to an opposite direction of mercantile influ encc is acknowledgedly owing the existing uuuuumus. weu iiugiu crimes oe cnarg ed upon the laws for their suppression, or the growth of weeds to the extirpating hands of the gardener, as to attribute the evils of an mllatcd fictitious capital, to those who nave stcauuy endeavored to introduce a me tallic currency. The government is now reouircd. with threats and menaces, to interpose the means of the people in behalf of the unsuccessful speculators who have failed to gather the expected harvest from the people's indus try, uommittecs are sent on to intimidate Mr. Van I3uren into surrendering the exec utive department to the control of brokers and jobbers, and to force an indemnity for ineir in iuck. v nen a tanners crop tails, docs he ask the government to make up the deficiency? When a mechanic loses a debt, or a drayman loses his horse, or a la borer a rainy day, does ho put in a like claim? And yet such misfortunes occur to fair and honest industry, unregarded, while a less amount of individual suffering on the part of those who adventure beyond their means in the hope of inordinate profits, is a pretext lor little short ol an insurrection. If the precedent is to hold good, every man who draws a blank in a lottery, or loses his monov at tho n-amino- table, or makes a foolish bargain, may justly call upon the government, not only for what he has lost, but for what ho expected to gain.

At the office of the .Columbia Democrat.' lROSPECTUS or THK TJ.'S.MAG-AZIHEj AND Democratic Review. ,N Itie first of July, 1837, will bo published ot 1 VnM,,rrfm. nicf Am nf 1ot.,,l,u ,ti:.. ered simultaneously in tho principle cities of the U ;iltcd States, a new Monthly Magazine, under the nboyo 'title, devoted to tho principles of the Demo cratic party. It has been apparent to many of tho reflecting members of tho Demnrnitin nnrlv nt ihn lTniin.t States, that a periodical for tho advocacy and liliV inn nf tllpir nnlifipnl tiInpir ... l , ' " uiupw ui ciplcs, mmilnr-to ih6f!6 In sucn active and lnllucnlial operation in England, U a desideratum, which it was very important to sup ply a periodical which should unito with tho at tractions ofa sound and vigorous literature, a pr titical character capable of giving efficient support lo tho doctrines nnd measures of that party, now maintained by a large majority of tho people. Dis cussing the great questions of policy licforc the country, expending and advocating tho Dcmocrat'to doctrine through the most ablo pens that that party can funiish, in articles of greater length, mpro con. densed force, more elaborate research, and inoro clc vatcd tone than is possiblo for tlio news-paper prcssi a Magazine of this character becomes an instrument of inappreciable value for tho enlightenment and formation of public opinion, and for thti support of the principles which it advocates. I)ythct.c means, by thus explaining and defending tho measures of tho great Democratic party, and by alwayn furnish ing to the public a clear nnd powerful commentary upon those complex questions of policy nnd party which so frequently distract tho country, and upon which, imperfectly understood as they often are by friends, and misrepresented and distorted an they never fail to bo by political opponents, it is of the utmost importance that tho public should lie fully and rightfully informod, it is hoped the periodical in question may lie made to exert n beneficial, ration al, and lasting influence on the public mind. Other considerations, which cannot be too highly appreciated, will render the establishment and suc cess of the proposed Magazine of very great impor tance. In the mighty strugglo of antagonist principles which is now going on in society the Democratic Party of tho United States stands committed to the V orid as tho depository nnd exemplar of thoi.o cardinal doctrines of political faith with which the cause of the People in ccry age ahd country it i dentified. Chiefly from the want ofa convenient means of concentrating the inlellcctual energies or its disciples, this party hag hitherto been almost wholly unrepresented in the republic of letters, while tho vlqws and policy of its opposing cieedsarc daily advocated, by the ablest and most commanding ef forts of genius and learning. In the United Stales Magazine tho acmpt will be made to remove this reproach. The present la the time peculiarly appropriate for the commencement of such nn undertaking. The Democratic body of the Union, after a conflict which Clcd to tho uttermost its siability and its principles, have succeeded in retaining posfcession of iho execu five administration of thecountry. In tbo consc quent comparative repose from political strife, tho pc. nod is suspicious for organizing and calling to its nid a new and powerfully ally of this character, interfe ring with none co-o penning with all. Coordinate, with tliii main dcfign of the United States Magazine, no care norcct will be spared to rcnderit, in a hterary point of view, honorable to tho country, and fit to cope in rigor of rivalry with its European competitors. Viewing the English lan guage ns tho noble heritagoand common birthright of all who speak tho tongue of Milton and Shakes pear, it will be the uniform object ofits conductors to present only the finest productions in the vnrioun branches of trmfnrrt ti. - i . fcf , i "-i mhi i'p firucurcui and lo diffuse tho benefit of correct models of taste nnd wor- j ujiucuiion.
