LONG ISLAND RAIL RoAD.-We have heard COM
plants against the management Of the accommoda-
ton trains on this road. AT this season Of the year,
there is usually great deal of travel the island,
and people travelling for pleasure have as much
right to expect expedition and comfort, as those
travelling on business. The through trains go with
great speed, and the accommodation trains at the
ra'e ol about ten miles per hour There are SO ma
ny attractions for those seeking pleasure in other
uis.ric's' that this rail road company must have
,''lc more regard for passengers or they will have
icw to accommodate.

The LoCoFoco OUTRAGE IN VIRGINIA.
The Richmond Wing, in announcing the in
definite postponement, on the part of the
Virginia Senate, of the election of a United
States Senator, makes these strong and just
comments:
This step, violent, designating, and un-
constitutional as il is unworthy of the repu-
tation OF Virginia, and worthy only of the po-
litical morality which esteems the end only
of importance, and all means of right which
will secur it--of the perpetrators of the
Plaquemines and Georgia frauds, of the New
York alms-house frauds, and of the Pennsyl-
vania Polkery which published Mr.. Clay's
speeches for the tariff, and ascribed t sem to
Mr.. Polk-this step Of lowest, most unscru-
pulous and unblushing demagoguism, has
surprised no one here of any party. 1t has
been known from the beginning that it would
be adopted by the Senate, unless, perchance
The magnanimous majority ofthat body could

their adversaries out Of the field, they de-
serve TO be driven out themselves!

ANOTHER 1NVENTION.-Col. Read,

if successful, is likely to be a formidable
competitor to Mr.. Morse's magnetic tele-
graph. lis purpose is TO transmit letters or
pa ckages any distance, with the rapidly OF
lightning The Boston Post says:
sThe process by which this is accomplish
ed is very SIMPLE, consisting merely of an
air-chest, which is charged with air, by a force

chest is sufficiently charged with air, the

it is Immediately discharged through the

pass by a large majority. And it was to pre-
vent a misconception ofthat principle, and
briefly TO state the merits of the case, that he
had risen.
On the following day-"Mr. JAMESON
asked, and obtained leave, to make a per-
sonal explanation. While he (Mr.J.) was
in the chair Of the Committee of the Whole
on the state of the Union, the gentleman
from Indiana [Mr. Owenl had risen and
made some remarks in reply 10 remarks he
(Mr. J.) had made the day before, on the
bill making appropriation for the Fox and
Wisconsin rivers. From the report of the
genlleman's remarks, he found that he (Mr.
j. had been Inexperienced entirely by
the gentleman. From the report of his re
marks land he wished the reporters to take
notice of i) 1t would appear that he was
opposed to this bill proposing TO make this
appropriation of alternate sections oil land
TO carry on the Wabash and Erie canal
Being in The chair at the time, he could mol
rise 10 explain. What he haa said was this
The gentleman from Indiana, mr.. Davis
the chairman of the Committee on Public
Lands, had introduced an amendment 10 thai
bill which, if carried, would defeat the bill
as a matter of course. This bill, relative
to the Fox and Wisconsin rivers, called for
an appropriation OF alternate sections of land
precisely as the bill did in relation to the
Indiana canal. He had then stated that he
was in favor OF the Indiana bill, o n the ground
that he believed the government of the Uni
ted States would never be the loser, but, in
fact, would be the gamer, by granting alter
nate sections, for the purpose of carrying on
internal works of general advantage to the
State, as well as .he Union; but he had
complained of the gentleman from Indiana,
as he had a bill of the same kind for
his State, that he should object TO this
proposition for Wisconsin,. He (Mr. j.
went for the bill in the Committee on Pub
lie Lands, appropriating for the Indiana ca
nal. He expected to go for it in the House.
For the same reason he favored the bill for
the Fox and Wisconsin rivers; and he was
satisfied that the general government would
lose nothing by it; that it would have all the
chance of gaining, with the risk of losing
nothing.

LOUISIANA CoNsTITuTroN.-An impor-
tant provision has been engrafied upon the
new constitution of Louisiana, the conven-
ton to amend which is now in session in
New Orleans. A clause has been adopted,
after a very long debate, requiring natural
lied citizens to have resided in the State
two years after they are naturalized before
they can exercise the right OF voting. This
provision is not, however, to be construed as
DISTINGUISHING any person o entitled to
vote. 1t was adopted by a vote OF % to 80.
and as some question may be started here
after as to the political character of the DO.
dy which has adopted this principle, it is pro.
per to state that it contains a majority of Lo.
cofocos.
