GFJomN DAvIs.-Our readers will find
in our columns to day an eloquent tribute to
this gentleman from the Boston Atlas. The
same paper says that, before he retired from
the Council Chamber, on Wednesday last,
the senior Councillor addressed him, in be-
half of his associates, in speech of surpass-
ing beauty, in which he reviewed the life
and labors of the Governor in the councils
of his native State, and on the floor of both
houses of Congress, and concluded with
sentiment, to which every good citizen will
respond, that " the name ofJonN DAVIS de-
serves to be enrolled among those Of the pa
,riot magistrates of New England, who have
walked before this people in all the wisdom
and uprightness which are given to man."

FEMALE SEMINARY.
We find the following communication in
A late number Of the Montpelier Waterman.

MONTPELIER, Jan 2, l6i3
Mr.. EDIToR.-l see from an advertisement in your
last paper, that the Burlington Female Seminary is
about to be transferred to the charge of Mrs George
Paine, OF WilIamstown. This intelligence will be
peculiarly gratifying 10 the friends of Mrs. Paine and
the Seminary. Burlington being by far the most
influential and beautiful town in the state, and Mrs
Paine a lady Of high accomplishments and unusual
qualifications for such station, it is reasonable 10
suppose, that under her care the Seminary will rank
among the first in the country. There exist 1t Bur-
lngton all the external conditions necessary for the
prosperity Of such an institution. The edifce and
grounds occupied by the Seminary those prepar-
ed, with SO much taste and expense, by Bishop Hop
kns, for the Episcopal School recently under his care
The original design certainly reflects much honor up
on the Bishop and the wisdom of the Trustees of the
Seminary, in securing for it these tasteful arrange
menis, cannot be to highly commended 1t is, in all
respects, delightful spot The view which il affords
OF the Lake and the Mountains beyond, is exceeded
by nothing of the kind in New England and il 10
asserted by travellers, that the famed Italian sunsets
scarcely exceed those which, a clear evening, NAV
be witnessed there The Seminary is entirely secluded
from the noise and hustle Of business without being
so remote TO preclude easy intercourse with the
intelligent and cultivated society which renders Bur-
lneton so desirable and pleasant a residence.
These external advantages, heightened by the cir
cumstances of the easy access TO Burlington from
every direction, especially up and down the lake,
would seem to leave nothing on this hand TO be desr
ed. Nothing can be wanting but proper life and pow
er within. The respectable standing of the Semlna-
ry would Indicate that these have not bern altogether
wanting IN time past and those who know Mrs.
Paine need not be told that they will be found there
in full ,eor as long the institution is under her d
recon. rs truly cheering 10 all who have the in
terests of educal' md human development a
heart to see our more important Seminnries passing
into the hands of those who exhibit in their own If,
and character the clearest exempfcation Of ru'
culture and who nre capable Of taking up, as il were
into Their own life and being, the spirit Of oil that il
excellent and beautiful around the H. and ofnfusing it
like an inspiration, fresh and living into tina youni
and opening hearts in whose presence they live anC
move. And cheering, too is the certainty that undo

WING VICTORY IN GEORGIA.

The Wings of Georgia have recently
achieved most brilliant victory by the cleo
ton of Mr.. CRAwroRD to Congress in the
place of Mr.. HABERsHAM deceased. The
election was by general ticker, and the Hart
ford Courant has the following remarks upon
the result:
We have never entertained doubt that the ascend
ancy Of Wing principles would soon be established
throughout the Union, and our confidence is render
ed still frmer by the result Of the late special election,
for member OF Congress in Georgia. The vote was by
general ticket and of course extended throughout the
State. Full returns have not yet been received, but
enough is known to justify the conclusion that the
Wing ma orty will not be less than 3000 We think
this vote may be taken fair test of the state Of
parties at the South. Wherever in the late Presiden-
tlal election, maJoies were given for Gen. Harrison,
the people are still firm in their devotion to Wing
principles A temporary dscouragement chilled Their
ador for n shoit perod-but the flame has again burst
forth. The tide has turned and the result of the Geor
ga election is a most suspicious omen of future sue
cess. THIS unexpected victory comes in good time
and the Wings OF Connecticut should take court
age from event winch proves that their bre,heen
IN other States are still ready for renewed Efforts
The truth is the Wings have yielded to most foolish
and unnecessary dependency since the death of Gen
Harrison. The elections which have since taken
place, have re-ulted, every one might have fore
seen, in the SUCCESS of the Van Bmrenes- not in
sequence OF any new confidence in their measures
b berause there was nothing to call out the people.
Who can wonder that at the last election in New
York. for example the Wings unable to brin.
ont II sr'ne vote which was given for Gen llarr-
IN, IN $40 Even the Locofoco vote 5000 less
ti-awhca S-ward's majority over 10 GOO. There
nothing %. great and exciting interest TO call ev
cry voter to the polls. Besides this the Wing party
were pa alyzed by that sad and mysterious event.
which deprived them of their Great Leader. This
alone is sufficient TO account for all their defeats
| But having recovered from this Shock md rallied
once more for the conflict, they are now, with firm
hearsand mirher efforts than ever, ready do all
that duty requires. The election in Georgia shows
.' san be iono Connecticut will initiate her glo.
r.Ous example.
