Merit Monday Congress will meet. and ~.
next Monday week. as was inad,erten,ly aid :.
Yesterdays paper. The error arose from ~.
writing the paragraph on Saturday last.
We have received. Of late. some complaint, &
the irregularity with which our paper. are r,,.;
we'd BY subscribers at two or three liftren, no.,
Offices. The fault is not with Us. Th,, :,
know. The papers are most resua ry. lailhfrr,
and carefully put up aud mailed. We uys
therefore, bear no part Of the blame.
Governor Troup has resigned his seats,sS,
nator from the State Of Georgia. HIS heath ~,
very bad, which was one inducement 10 hi, ,,c
and the recent election in the State perbap. .a,.
fed him that his political opinions did 10, accord
with those Of his constituents. We never cons

Mr. Foster, Mr.. Wayne, Mr.. Cuhbert. and Nj,

Mr.. CASTOR. OF North Carolina, has been 10.
minated as Chief Justice Of that State, and will
probably be elected By the Legislature. AlUau
choosing to be honest. rather than popular "a.
vorite. this gifted and distinguished man ha, not
been advanced as his talents deserved. We az,

herself in elevating him. We look upon judo,
Marshall, Mr.. CASTOR, and Mr.. Grlmke. Of SOul!
Carolina. as three OF the greatest and best met
in this country.

Mr. Rush is said to have turned Jackson man
Mr. Rush once turned Ant.Mason. Nsl.he
change will avail him much, we expect.
We are pleased TO see public attention turned
in several of the States, to the subject oil employ
