MASSACHUSETTS AND VlRGINA-Our readers
are doubtless aware that the Legislature of Mas
sachusetts at the early part Of It's present session
passed certain resolves recommending an amend
ment of the Federal Constitution so as to appor-
ton Representatives in Congress and direct taxa
ton among the several States according to their
respective numbers Of free citizens, copies OF
which were sent to the President of the United
States and the Governors of the several States
We observe by the proceedings of the Massachu-
setts Legislature that the Assembly of Virginia
have caused the copy sent to the Governor of
that State to be returned to Gov. Briggs, accom-
panied by certain preamble and resolutions, re-
garding the affair virtual proposition for the
Dissolution of tho gnion. Whoreupon the Nj u.s.
sachusetts Legislature passes by unanimous
vote series of resolutions reiteratng the sent,
ments of the People Of that State, declaring that
they do in good faith propose an amendment to
the Constitution as provided for IN the fifth arn
Gle of that instrument taking exceptions to the
manner in which Virg mia has treated the sub
iect and directing the Governor to transmit said
esolyes to the Governors of the several States,
with the request that they may be lald before
their respective Legislatures. Among the Re
solves is the following:
Resolred That this Legislature but regard the
tur OF their Resolves by the General Assembly of Virginia

ago we stated, from returns then received, that
Mr. Polk, the President elect, although elected

would yet be in a minority Of the popular vote.
We fad now. from the full returns from the twen-

were In errcr and we hasten 10 correct our former
statement as soon rs possible. II nop appears that

both Mr.. Clay and Mr. Birney This is most
important fact, and ought to be made known as

GRAND LITERARY MOVEMENT "A literary move
ment of novel and interesting character, has just
been made by highly respectable body Of practi-
cal philosophers in this city. This movement has,
in fact, originated with those useful laborers in
literature, the carriers OF the Hsrald whose phi
los 'phy, very different from that of the loafer
hteruii, recognizes its FIRST principles, industry,
sobrlety, and the necessity Of earning an honest
living. They offer prize Of twenty. five dollars
for the best "New Years Addrs sss,'' or poetical
resume Of the events Of the year rapidly draw
Ing To close. Fourteen days are allowed for the
completion Of the work, which is very reasona-
bic allowance when il is considered that il is not
required that the poem should be az long as the
Had, nor even SO lengthy Pafk BeDjamin's last
great work-the terrific satire Of the nineteenth
ceatury. The competition is open to all connected
with the editorial department Of the Hraid, who
have the sft OF poetic genue, and the compositors
are also permitted TO engage IN this struggle tor
Immortality. The addresses are to be sent in
anonymously TO the board Of carriers, who will,
solemn literary conclave, sit in ju igment upon
the respective merits of the several productions
Thisis altogether an Interesting literary movement,
and we have no doubt thata great deal Of curiosity
will be excited amongst the public to examine the
address, to the author Of which the prize will be
adludged.
