who proposes that we shall vote for members
OF the Legislature, with preference to national
"principles, and with an eye to the future ele.
"vation, as Governor Of the State, of JAIME,
" Barbour, Of Orange" with this significant
hint Ii we are not mistaken, the signs of the
.. times point to Mr. Barbour as a fit candidate
'for an exalted station under the General Gov.
(" ernment. The friends Of Mr.. Clay have not
vet nominated their candidate for the Tce
g Presidency"
The Constitution, as you will recollect, pro-
yides against the President and Vice President
being elected from the same State; and il is true
that Mr.. Clay, il elected as President, would be
from Kentucky, and Mr.. Barbour, if Vice Pre-.
sident, from Virginia. where is there a
Virsinian, not in allegiance to General jackson,
who does not feel pride in recognizing Henry
Clay as Son Of Virginia, who, in her decline,
reflects infinite lustre upon her.
Virginia is his natipe Sta'e: from her he deriv-
ed his principles, and he carried her principles
with him 10 the West. Towards this parent, bis
feelings Of affection and piety--of veneration for
her ilustrious statesmen-ef love for her people
and desire to promote their best interests, are
as active and ardent as if he were. still amongst
US, having common interest with US. II seems
to me, then, question-and respectfully sug-
gest it for Observation-Disclosures it would be
discreet, or il, indeed. it would not be unjust to
the other States, to press upon the people Viz
einians for the Presidency and the Vice Presi-
dency. Would it not be preferable, always,
that sthese two highest officers Of the Federal
Government should come north and south of the
Potomac. PENNSYLVANIA Or New York, methinks,
shall give US the Vice President

have begun with sentence like the following
"There can be no doubt that, under due sys-
TEN of protection, the growth of British Woods
might be greatly increased, and that our do.
nestle Woods might eventually be enabled to
stand the competition Of the Woods of the con-

VELOCITY OF LIGHT. The eclipses of
satellites or moons of the planet Jupiter had
been carefully observed for some time, and
a rule was obtained which foretold the in
slant in all future time, when the satellites
were to glide into the shadow of the planet,
and disappear, or again to emerge into
view. Now it was found that these ap-
pearances took place 161 minutes sooner
when Jupiter was near the earth or on the
same side of the sun with the earth, than
when it was on the other side; that is to
say, more distant from the earth by one
diameter of the earth's orbit, and at all in
termedate stations the difference dimin-
ished from 163 minutes in an exact proper
ton to the less distance from the earth.
This proves, then, that light takes 164 min
ntes to travel across the earth's orbit, and
81 minutes for half that distance, or to
come down to us from the sun. The veloc-
ity of light ascertained in this way, is such
that in one second of time, viz, during a sin
gle vibration of common clock pendulum it
would go from London to Edinburg and
back 200 times, and the distance between
these is 400 miles. This velocity is so sur
prising, that the philosophic DR.. Hook,
when it was first asserted that light was
thus progressive, said he could more easily
believe the passage to be instantaneous
even for any distance, than that there should
be progressive movement so inconceivably
swift. The truth, however, is now put
quite beyond doubt by many collateral
facts bearing upon it.-.4rnot.
