1t will be very gratifying to the friends Of
morality aud religion, to learn that glori-
Gus revival is in progress in Beetown, 1t
is understood that nearly all manifest an in
terest in the work of salvation. Meetings
are constantly held and all secular affairs
seem to be nearly suspended in the general
search for " the pearl of great price. Many
heartily repent of horse-racng and gamb-
ling; and several have prolessed religion.
May every soul in Beetown be converted!
As true religion prompts men to be just and
pay their debts, we cannot take a more fa-
vorahle opportunity TO suggest to those in
Boetown, who are indebted at this office,
that we rant or pay; being anxious to pre-
face our olrn religious experience by obey
ing the injunction Of the great apostle, TO
"owe no mau anything

The new design for Washington Mon
ument is thus described by the New York
Post:
The design is quite alIegorical, having a
pyramidal flight of thirteen steps, pedes-
raj with seven sides, 1.-THE number seven in
dleatlng perfection,) each having six win
dows and two escutcheons over the central
ones, making fourteen-thirteen for the orr
ginai states, and one for that of the United
states. Upon this convolute pillar, hav-
ing three bands, referring to the union of
the States by the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, The Federal Constitution and that of
the several States. The cap of this yery
neat and beautiful shaft has FIVE angles rep
resse,nItlng star and supporting gilt globe
OF dimensions to correspond with that of the
colossal Gao feet) statue of Washington.
which Stands upon il. Taken together. il
Is very neat and beautiful design; the at
titude or Washington has about it an indies
cfibable grandeur, which divests the behol-
der OF the triflng allegoricaI notions.

it to he my duty, and should most certainly

Mr.. Clay's letter continues to be the topic OF
discussion among all parties. The Clay wings,
who comprise ne-tenths Of the wing voters,
especially the mechanics, have received it with
great pleasure, but the leaders, that is to say
the +" Court House clique" who have recently
attempted to carry the party over, body and
breeches, to Taylorism, 60 beyond the bounds OF
decency in venting their rage. After being re-
pudiated by the great body of the party, to find
themselves thus growled at by the " embodi-
ment of wing principles" seems to be more
than human naure can bear; and they avow
their intention to vote for the nominee of the
democrats in preference to their former IDOL

in the ranks, and scout their leaders as deser
tiers and scrambers for the loaves and fishes.
The democrats are also much pleased with
Mr.. Clay's letter, as they think he will be much
easier to beat than any other man that could be
nominated. However, the next Presidency is
located in the hollow OF the hands of the Van Blu

seven miles were passed over by an express
irain in seventy.eight minutes twenty-nlne
seconds, including stoppage of five minutes
hirty five seconds. Flity.three miles OF the
journey were performed in fcrty-nine minutes
thirteen seconds. The speed in some cases
vas kept up at seventy, seventy miles
an hour This rate OF speed was attained, II
will be observed, on broad gauge track sew
en- feet wide, and with engines having driving
wheels eight feet in diameter. How long
will i, be before Yankee ingenuity will riva
this extraordinary speed!
