We see 1t stated that Allen 4. Hall, late minister
 to yeniazula, has taken charge of the editorial de- partment of the Nashville Hbig. As a political writer, Mir. Hall has few sHperiors; and were he yielding his pen in just and holy cause, would be almost inYiaeible; but in attempting to infuse the vital spark into the galvanized corpse of whigery, we fancy he will be yany frittering.away his tal- ents. He has resumed his ancient occupation win the hope, no doubt, of averting the impending de feat of his party in Tennessee By the ides of Au- gust the thunder shouts of the democracy will con vince him that his efforts have been fruitless.

 WASHINGTON CrrY, March


 DrAn E-l drop you line merely to say that Florida and Iowa were admitted as States of this Union, last night. The final vote was taken about l2 o'clock The maorties were decided; but the particulars can't give you at this moment. The papers in the morning will contain all, and will forward them. The abolitionists, led by Choate in the Senate, did their best against the bill, be- ing willing to admit Iowa, but not Florida. Col. Sevier, our noble Senator, made short, but forcible, eloquent and effective speech, in which he handled the political aboltion- ists without gloves. The Union now con- sists of TWENIYNI NE States three, and all of them Democratic, and admitted in two days Six Democratic Senators, added to our present force, gives us the Senate l. Good

The odious Post Office Bill of which l wrote you yesterday, passed the Senate last night with the House amendments. The rates of postage are now and 10 eents.- At first view this may please few who write good many letters, and pay but small amount of taxes. But when it is considered in it's true light, as a scheme of the merchants and manufacturers to keep up, and proba
 bly increase the Tariff, at the expense of the taX-payng agrculturist, who will, perhaps. save fifty cents in postage, and lose ten dol lars in taxes, 1t will justly incur the indig- nant condemnation of our people. See how 1t works The wealthy city merchant or manufacturer who at present pays, perhaps. t1cemy dollars tax, and fre Hundred dol lars postage, will, under the operation of this bill, pay thirty dollars tax, and tsco Hundred dollars postage; thus making nett gain of near hrce Hundred doilarS year; where as the farmer who now pays one Hundred dol lars tax, and three dollars postage. will have to pay one Hundred and .ftiy dollars tax and about one dollar postage; thus sustaining a loss of near ffy dollars a year, These may not be the precise sums made or lost. nor the precise rates and proportions of tax es and PostageS paid yet they are subsan- tally correct; and near enough true to illus traie the operation of the Bill, and its per nicious effects R

something Of the granite hills; something of the

There are two ridges, broad, deep lodges of the

stone of beautiful blue color, which gives it its
name. These quarries may be thus classified :
