two Senator'S of the United States, i'm the
places OF General Varnum, whose term
expires in March next, and of Mr.. Gore,
who has recently resigned his seat. 1t IS
understood to be in contemplation to make

os enc Senator from each of the political
partis S in the State. A federalist, who
shall represent the commercial part Of the
Community, and republican,, who shall
represent the manufacturing part. w IL

conflicting interests of the State, as well as
to the two political parties which SO equal
ly divide the Commonwealth. AS the fc-
deralists daily acknowledge that at present
there exists no ground for continuing the

overture will cordially meet the wishes of
the minority. We congratulate the public

Our readers are already acquainted
with the fact. that beef, butter ana pot tues
have been imported into New-York, Phila-
delphia and Baltimore, in the course u the
spring. 1t is an extraordinary fact, that
these articles. notwithstanding the freight.
insurance, duties. *. have been sold low T.
than similar articles of domestic growth,
and yet have yielded to the importer a
handsome mercantile profit.
We understand, that a Company is now
forming in this City to import full cargo
of butter from Ireland, for tbs market IN
the ensuing autumn. 1t is believed that
the Company will be able to supply our
citizens with as good butter as is made in
any part OF our Country, and at consiie
rably reduced price. And one of our most
respectable Brewers has informed us that
himself and others are now making ar
range ments to import their bar.ey anu hops
from England. This state of things how
ever, We presume cannot continue long,
as We do not believe that there is any
scarcity of these articles in this country
