The acts of the late Whig legislature of Ohio have eXceilcd in atrocity anything heretofore recorded in Inc annals Of the country. Not only have they repealed all the safeguards which former legislatures had thrown around the banking institutions of the country for the protection of the people, but they have substituted a bank government, whereby a few individuals in Columbus can monopoize the business of the State, and levy their tribute on every county in Ohio and further than this, to reward few partisans, they have been guilty of an outrage without precedent in tle United States. The constitution and laws of the United States require that each State shall be divided into congressional dis trcts once in ten years, in order that the representation of the several States may cor respond with the congressional apportionment law. which is made in accordance with the returns of the census. Two elections have already been held since the last census under the new congressional district law, and three more elections remain to be held before the next congressional apportionment, yet. for mere partisan purposes, the late Whig logis- latWe oi Ohio have not only altered these districts, by taking counties from certain dis tncts and attaching them to others, but they have even violated all llconsttutonals safeguards by detachlng i0NasdipS from some Of tho coun- ties, and lacking them on to- others, against the will of the people of such counties, and without giving tho notice which is required m saca cases. We call particular attention 10 the Following article on the subject, which we find in the Athenan of the Huh insant- a whig paper published at Athens, ntbis State:

 Save the subject of annexation, during the past winter, no one act either of Congress or of our own legislature of Ohio has caused within Us more astonishment and ehagfn than did the news on last evening from Columbus.
