We have received from Washington all the returns except from a portion of Texaa and Florida. We are now putting the returns in type, and, on the receipt of the few rc naining returns, shall publish instanter. These returns have not been received at Washington, and the Union isabout to publish the last number of The Campaign without them. It may be that we shall be compelled to do so also bat we are so anxious to present the full and perfect returns that we shall delay the publication of the CounSkmner yet a few weeks longer.

Mr. H. is an able man, and his services will doubtless be called for by the people again at no distant day. C-Eartholomew," a correspondent of the State Journal, proposes Hon.

Mr. H. has been in Congress heretofore, but he will scarcely ever enjoy that luxury gain while the district remains as it is. CrxciNN-ATr Election.

The permanent future arrangements of this able democratic journal are now announced. Messrs. John H. Gerard and C H. Eroujrh retire from the concern, and Messrs. Albert G. Day and John J. Firan are now the sole proprietors. The business department will be under the control of Mr. Day, and the editorial under that of Mr. Faran. Mr. F. was a member of the last Congress, and has tin; ability to meet the expectations of the party at that important point. 07" The Whigs of New York city hive nominated Wm. V.

Franklin Township Johnson Co. The township convention at the C nirt Itoiie yester day resulted wo are informed in the selection of Dr. Ritchey, as first choice for Representative in Congress (hy unanimous V' te.) Chapman 2d and Peaslee 3J. G. Hicks first choice fir Representative. For ShcrilF W. Jennings, 1st R. Johnson 2d. Commissioner, S. Magill. 1st. Assessor, M. Wheat 1st, R. F. Grubbs SM, F. C. Buchanan M. FmnWn Examiner, 'M. Extensive Roubekv at Sr. Louis. The city of St. Louis has been thrown into considerable excitement, owing to a heavy robbery perpetrated on the night of the 23d February last, in the Ranking House of Messn. Nisbet Co. The general supposition is, that the thieves effected their entrance into the house between midnight and t he hour of two in the morning. Proceeding to the door at the further end of the hall, with chisels and other necessary instruments, they pried off the lock, and succeeded in opening the door. They then proceeded to the trap door which leads to the lower apartment, containing the vault and safe; and attempted in the first place, to effect their object by entering from the top. Failing to accomplish thus their object as soon ns desirable, the attempted to force the door of the vault, and here, again they met with effectual resistance. Ab a Let resort, we presume, they commenced operations on the back part of the vault, and after removing about two feet thick of brick, they succeeded in reaching the eafe. In this eafe of Messrs. Nisbet they cut a square hole, sufficiently large to admit the passage of a man's body. The thief or thieves succeeded in carrying otf, as neir as can be ascertained, the following sutnx: $70f0 Missouri Rank notes; $1113 Kentucky ami Indiana notes; Ohio and Wheeling notes; $1024 Wisconsin and Dubuque notes; Sr70.10 in 111. script ; $:fciii.:U in gold and silver. and a lag containing $1,4G3 in American gold; making in all 15,010 doli. 3i cents, and one small box belonging to the citizens' Insurance Company, containing ,s90 and the papers of that company. Nothing has transpired to give a clue to the guilty party. Things in Canada, Annexation, &c. The Canadian journals are busy discussing the question brought up by the agitation now going on on their side of the line. The Toronto Examiner, at the close of a long article on annexation says : The public mind, as excited by thi question, appears to be in that state of indecision when a slight circumstance turns tho scale and decides the most momentous questions. Many, looking at our position, geographical and political, assure themselves that destiny has in fnct rendered inevitable a consummation which the speeches of orators', the arguments of writers, or even the volition of the public mind cannot prevent t longer delay. For our part, we pretend not to the gift of prophesy, and can only await the fulfilment of our political dctiny, without dogmatically predicting to what goal it will lead." With regard to annexation, the C donist, of the Gth inst., makes the following announcement : Now, r.s the North American ('.denies nre nt present situated, thny are on tho eve of making new commercial connections, which must norcNsarily be followed by new political connections also. We have no longer, it may be said, nnv interest in continuing a connection, which, in time of peace ortfers n perceptible advantage, and in the event of war would expose us cruelly to the belligerent operations i f our neighbors. Circumstances now betoken that it will not be long before commercial preference on the one hand, and colonial and imperial ditforcnecs on the other, will carry into eifcct what has been so solemnly predicted. Wo ehall have no cause to regret that change, whenever it ehall take place, bo it somier or later." In the speech made by J. G. Vnnsittart, Esq., at a public dinner given in Hamilton, we find the following sentence, as reported by the Hamilton Gazette: Petitions should at once be sent, not only to the Governor General, but to our most gracious Queen, against the Representation pill, which would give ill into the hands ef the French, when there would be nothing left us but to conquer the French race again, or to seek a more friendly government." The Montreal correspondent of the Toronto Fatriot eays : The only 4on d it of the day, worthy of credit you niu u not give any to those mentioned in the newspapers refers to th 'under current' leaning of the Aiiglo-Saxons here toward an annexation with their brethern of the United States, unjustily and untruly attributed by Lord Durham in his time, but true as the gospel now." Tho Montreal Witness has an article in which the advantages and disadvantages of Annexation are stated. Smuggled into Office.- Mr. Kellog, who was lately appointed and confirmed as Marshal of the Northern District of New York, according totheCincinnati Enquirer, appears to have been smuggled into office in a rather mysterious way. .Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Seward were to meet on a certain day, at the office of the Secretary of State, and agree upon some person for that office, anil .Mr. Clayton was to recommend the President to appoint the one so agreed upon. On the day appointed, about 12 o'clock, wiiilo the Senate was in session, the name of Mr. Keli.o; was sent in. Mr. Fillmore supposing he had been tricked, immediately called on Mr. Sewakd, who asseverated ignorance et the appointment. The two then called on Mr. Clayton, who said that wie person came and told him that Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Seward had agreed on Mr. Kf.llcx; and desired his nomination which was accordingly done. After debating the matter awhile, the two thought it the best policy to let the matter stand without having the nomination withdrawn. Mr. Rerrie.v, of Georgia, was very indignant at the cheat. Our readers will remember, says the Cincinnati Enquirer, Col. Robbins, who, a few years ngo, acted as second in a duel to a party that fought opposite to our city. A couple of years ago, he went on a mission to Europe, in order to inquire into the prospect of canceling the Mississippi bond1. On his return to Vicksburg, he found that his only child had died the day before, which alliicted him severely; but this was not his only allliction a confidential clerk to whom he had given a power of attorney robbed him of about $20,000. Soon after this, it was remarked by his friends that he was insane; and now he occupier a cell in the city of New York. How wonderful are tho changes that take place, in the short space of a few years! TERKiRLr. Steam:oat Explosion. Tho Louisville Democrat learns from passengers on the steamer Pke No. 7, that the Wellsville and Pittsburgh packet Virginia, when near Wellsville, on Saturday last, burst her boilers, instantly blowing the boat to atoms, and killing and wounding fifty passengers. The captain and one of the pilots escaped by swimming ashore. The hull of the boat sank in deep water, and, together with the cargo, is a total loss. Several of the passengers who were badly scalded, arrived at Cincinnati yesterday morning on the Pittsburgh packet. Tho new tow.bo.it Defiance, built at Cincinnati a short time since, with Montgomery boilers, exploded below New Orleans on the 2"))i ult., killing McFurland, the chief engineer, and three of the hands, and wounding several others. At the time of the explosion, she had three ships in tow, and was making her first trip. COThe Delphi Herald econds the Lafayette Journal's motion to run E. W.

Murers et j leather, boots, shoes, &e.: and the out-door tranacI Hons were conducted by tho youngest son, Fitz Hen- ; ry. Things went on largely, until one morning the : firm of P. Warren & Sons, and several other persons ' in the vicinity, woke up and found themselves bankrupts, and Fitz Henry gone to ; he turned up j afterwards, in Iown, as "Colonel Warren;" nnd now, I in Washington, as the Hon. Fitz Henry Warren, Second Postmaster General, by appointment of President Taylor's Postmaster General; and charged with the appointment of all the seventeen thousand postmasters in the country, except the few whoso compensation exceeds a thousand dollars a vear. It cannot be possible that General Taylor had any knowledge of the individual assigned to one of the most Important places in tlu government. It cannot be possible that Judge Collamcr had any knowledge of the person whom he has appointed one of his assistants, and who is, more than any other, to give a character to his administration of the Post Orfice Department. If they had such knowledge, the appointment is an act of theirs which cannof be looked upon with much complacency by the high-minded and honorable men of tho whig party. It would indicate that there is porvice to be performed, from which men cf high political, social, and moral character would turn away with disgust. The appointment is such an unfortunate ono that we must believe that it wrn made hastily and upon insufficient or mistaken information. Senatorial Duel in Pnosrr.cT. A Washington letter to the New York Herald, says : Mr. Hannegan's "pistols and coffee" correspondeuce with Mr. Webster, in relation to the letter of the latter gentlcnnn pronouncing .Mr. Hannegan's appointment ti the mission to Prussia, "the most degrading act that ever took place in the Senate," will it is said, create some difficulty about tho issuing of his commission.

Hence the speech of C. B. Smith and ILW.TImmpon and Ihe vote of the whi lepiesenitivv" in Congress oo the Gotl resolution. Alio such aiticlc by the press us one I noticed not long since in the Cincinnati Chicmicle a leading whij pajer of Ohi i, endeavoring to show the good eUect that would aiie from the panae by Congien of a law more effectually to enable slaveholder to lecaptuie their slaves fiorn wiihin ihe free Stales !

Uenolved, that the exiting 'Black Laws' of the State ff Indiana are buithenomc aiJ opivsiive and should cither be tepcaled or modified i'i some essential paiticulars." Compaie resolution with the article in the Cincinnati Chronicle and if we make them agiee at all it muit be that the Black laws of Iudiani ate '.-pnressive and bulthensome" tiion the slave holder whoe slave may have ( ecped into thi State an.t therefore ought to be repealed, or j m.diiied accoidinz to the views of the editor of the Liuciünati Chronicle. I Jo not believe that such wai the view of the whisi cf Henry County but I d believe il was gotten up for the purpose of deceiving. Who caanot see that by the woids "or modified," that it may be explained away thould circumstance? require it ? I think ihe people aie fast learning that the whijjs ate uot a patty of process at"! I ventuie the a-eition that if ever the condition of the coloied man is improved by Legislative enactment in this State it will be done by the dcmocrati. Hwr was it in Ohio? The whis have had a majoiity in the legislature of that State for Fevcral year previous to the present and although they often promised to thc ear before the elections the repeal of more or les of the law imposing disibilitic-a on the coloied man yet the hope of those dcMiotn of their lepcal weie tu often ilioipp-intrd. And now at the prcetit time, who can read the wholesale denunciations of the vl1i4 piess of that State ajiinst the Democrat-', and Van Dutu, Townseod, and Morse, of the fiee soil party, for electing Salmon V. Cli;e a frep s--.it dftrncrat to the United Mates Senate, and not see tint the whis care nothing about free soil pih.ci;.le further than they can make thern answer their purpose in piocmif.g votes ? I am aware that tneie are honoiable exetption, but I speak of them as a party. A person in reading the editorials culd cot fail if he ciedited the articles at ail in believing thit they would much rather an anti-fiee Soil democrat (could such an one have been found) had been elected than S. P. Chae. And why? Becaime they ce their craft is in danger, that they can no linger practice their deception upon the free soil voten of whatever cieid in politic f r that they must see that the democrats when action instead of piomies are called for aie their ttnist friends. That S. P. Chase is both a free soil and dem. ocia'ic stateman there can be no doubt. The Cincinnati Chronicle says that, in IS IS ho b a principal patt in constructing thc Hnjf.ilo platform and pushing the free soil movement 111 puppm ting MartiN Van Kuren for the presidency.
