CALLED SESSION OF THE LEGISLATURE.
The spirit. intention, and phraseosogy,
lone and all-of the various resou-
tions, passed at the last session of the
Legislature. make it the bounden
duty of Gen. Quitman to re-assemble
that body at the earlies. day. The
action of Congress-w which was clear

is plainly marked out by The resolu-
tion which we annex. Mississippi
has looked in vain to the general gov.

understand that from The Federal
City she can expect nothing. We

We have a double motive for desr.

The New President.

AT the formation of the Constitution the federal
party were in favor of long presidential terms. Some
even advocated life tenure in that Office. The
son assigned was the danger of convulsion and revo
luton at the time of each change The recent Prov
Dental event has proved the fallacy of their argu
ment Whilst the cold remains of the late President
lay in state few hours after his spirit had taken its
flight to another world, the Vice President, without
any ostentatious display left his boarding house, ac
companied by the two New York Senators, rode in
plain and common hack to the Capitol, where, in
the presence of Congress- the oath was administered
to him. and he became under the forms of the Conss
tuition, the Chief Magistrate Of great nation
There was no hiatus in the Government-no convul-
sions-no armed men TO preserve order or protect
his person. He is now in the White House, clothed
with the robes of Office and surrounded by his con-
stitutional advisers. He enters upon his Office
at an important crisis and it is the duty of every
good citizen to refrain from any thing that will unne
cessarily embarrass his administration. A great
question is now pending before Congress, which
rises above the party questions of the day II
is national question, and, national President
Mr. Fillmore is bound 10 his best endeavors for
It's amicable and satisfactory adjustment Let him
do this, and he shall have our need of praise
He is a whig. His Cabinet is whig. In party
politics have nothing to expect from him. We
ask nothing. But we will not PREJUDICE his admins
tration His acts shall be the evidence upon which
we will form our verdict.

The Great Rai,road Line.

The public mind is now directed TO of the
most important interior ,corks yet undertaken in
America we allude TO the line of railway being
rapidly constructed, stretching near one thousand
miles continuously, from Eastern seaboard to the
Mississippi and running through the States of Penn
sylvania, Ohio Indiana, and Illinois The magni-
tude and importance of this great chain have, until
but there longer remains any reasonable doubt of
its completion, al very early day This great work
see is in charge of six active and energetic
panies, each pressing their link with all the means
and men that can be thrown upon it. The line from
Philadelphia TO Pittsburgh, we learn, will be in ope-
ration by the summer Of 1852 From Pittsburgh
west TO Massllon ITO miles, the iron has been pur
chased The western link in Ohio is in a rapid state
Of progress The eastern section i'm our State from
indianapolis 10 the Ohio line, is in forward state OF
construction, and part of the iron is being laid
The Western section from Indianapolis TO the State
line is being energetically prepared for the super
structure and the line through Illinois, from Terre
Haute to st. Louis, is soon to be located This
shows what can be done by energy and concert oi
action directed to a common purpose. We shall
soon no longer feel the inconvenience of being in
the interior. The directness of this line OF railway
will enable us to reach the Eastern cities in less time
than was formerly occupied between our city ant
Madison, while business operations MUST receive
additional impulse to extent not at this time tC
be realized even by those who are the most san
guine.

From THE SOUTHERN MINEs.-A friend, Mr.. H. Pri-
cr has Just returned to this city from the southern mines,
where he has been digging the past winter. He dug
two months in the Mariposa dggngs, without meeting
with much success Thase who have passed the winter
there he Thinks have generally fallen in debt for part OF
their expenses
Mr.. T. left the Marigosa dggings about six weeks
ago. and to the Ratesnake creek OF the trbu
tares to the Tuoumne. He found the miners at this
stream doing fair busincss-ayeraging from ten to
twelve dollars per day. About five hundred were at
work. half of whom, he thinks, were Mexicans.
Mr. p. prospected quite extensively in the Marposa
and Tuolumne diggings hut the richest he found were
on Rattlesnake creek. From what he has seen, and
from all lie has been able to learn he judges that miners
have generally only made enough to pay their expenses
in the principal dggings he has visited Provisions
very cheap, and all kinds Of trade dull.
AGRIcULrURE Agriculture in California appears to
be improving, and it is equally profitable as any
thing else, it is attracting increased attention Boxes
of garden seed which had nine dollars, have been
sold for one hundred dollars; and scythes which cost
three dollars disposed of forty five dollars. The
seeds which sent around Cape Horn were almost
useless while those that the Isthmus hermet
rically sealed up first. One man near San Jose
had made fifty thousand dollars by raising potatoes.
