VIRGINIA Observation-Disclosures the thousand con-
f~icting and contradictory statements in relation to
the state Of parties in the Old Dominion, We have
found some difficulty in arriving at any certain con-
clusion on this subject. Ore thing is placed beyond
doubt, that the Wings have the ascendency in the
Legislature, aud in all probability will be able to elect
two Wing Senators. They have also received a con-
siderable accession in the popular vote. Whether it
be sufficient to carry the state against the admins
%tration, is very doubtful, though we are inclined to the
opinion that the state will give her electoral vote for
Mr.. Van Burcn by a small majority. In the Senate,
the wings have a gain Of 3; the parties standing
now l6-l6; last year they stood 10 Democratic and
ID Wing. In the House according to the Globe, the
Wings have 60, Democrats 60. According to the
Baltimore Patriot, they stand GO Democrats to ~
Wings. This difference results from the fact, that
Genl. Bailey of Accomac, is claimed by both parties,
being n whig excepting his opposition to Rives and
Harrison, and that in Caroline neither candidate has
received the return, and ia Frederick, the high Sheriff
gave the casting vote for the Democrat and the de-
putty for the Wing. In both Of these counties, the
elections will he contested as well as in some half
dozen Others, where the majorities varied from one 10
Is. We have seen no statement Of the popular vote
which can be relied upon with any degree Of certainty.

AGRICULTURAL IMPRovEMEYr.-In the retro
spect Of the past, we find that agriculture
has received 4 greater impulse during the
last twenty years, than in double or treble
that period previously-that during this space
of time, scientific knowledge and enlighten-
ed education have been brought to bear up,
on the subject, and in putting theory into
practice, the narrow prejudices contracted
by the world at large, have been thrown
aside. Science has clearly demonstrated
that in this pursuit there is an ample field
for the exercise Of the ~clearest faculties, and
the deepest scientific researches, calculated
to afford enjoyment in it, and fully reimburse
their expenditures.
This march of improvement is not stayed
but happily we may assert, that at no point
of time was it more in full tide Of progress
than at the present, and no limits can be set
10 its advancement. To quicken it, our far
mers themselves must lay hold Of the matter;
they should individually feel that a portion
of this work is assigned them-that they are
called upon as integrant parts OF a great
community, to further its interests by the
means which they severalIy have at com-
mand; they should be willing, impartially,
and unbiased by old prejudices, to canvass
all their actions and bring them to the test
of reason. They should not suppose that
in any n particular they have reached to
ultimate perfection, but keep this always in
view, as the point to arrive at.-Farmsr's
Cabinet.

GRADUATION AND PRE-EEPTIox BILLs.-These two
important western measures have passed the United

reduces the price of land which has been ) years in
market 10 one dollar. and that which has been 10

GYM. John Penniman, Esq. OF Blltinorc,
according 10 the Clipper, has Just made a
very important discovery, which lie calls
~arterial circulation; or, in other words, he
has discovered-what the European. rs well
as the American, Engineers have long been
endcavoring TO do-a method to cause a con-
tlnGed circulation oil the water contained in
steam engine boilers; the elect of which
would be to render the builprs more durable
and prevent explosion. Some Of the most
scientific gentlemen in the country are OF
opinion that the discovery is one of great
importancc.-[BuHetin.
The mo3Gs opera7d is Of so simple a ma
ture. that although at first VI are not wiling
10 believe in its power 10 accom- li,h Such
eminent results vet when we consider
that this is generally the case with discove-
ries that they a:e in themselves simple, we
are not al all astonished to find them first in
the great arena Of Improvement, in this
are about to mention, there is not the least
alteration from the usual form of the boiler
ne~cessary--and bat the simple addition OF a
number of copper or iron tubes; more or less.
The peculiar originality Of Mr.. Penniman's
discovery, as obtained from the patent office,
appears 10 consist in the application Of per-
pendlcular iron or copper tubes at the head
OF the boiler. The water flows into the low
er ends OF these tubes-then, by the action
of the heat, will naturally flow upwards into
the upper part of the boiler, to the most
distant part from the fire, from thence re-
turn to the lower extremity of the tubes to
be again carried upwards; consequently
imparting the heat in proper and regular
quantities 10 each and every part of the
initiating. precisely, the ~circula-
ton OF the blood in the human firm, being
first propelled from the heart to the extremi-
ties. from thence returning to receive a new
impetus, and so on alternately.
1t will be readily seen, when the tubes
are placed in such a situation, that the force
Of the heat will be expended upon the tubes,
consequently taking from the head Of the
boiler that intense heat which is the main
cause Of explosion, so destructive to human
lie. These tubes being constantly filled
with water, prevents the possibility of their
getting az a higher temperature than the
water contained in them.
II the safety of passengers in steamboats,,
frigates, &C., is a mater Of moment, which
1t certainly is, then we would say, the d.
rectors Of these, as well as of railrods, should
give this invention their particular attention;
public interest, and the preservation ofhuman
life, call loudly for it.
1t is well known, that Great Britain has
already offered a premium of five thousand
dollars to any one who would produce the
improvement TO steam engine boilers which
Mr.. Pcnniman processes 10 rave accomplish
His purpose is, we understand, TO set
sail for Europe Immediately, and claim the
prize.
