The Senate were yesterday engaged on

They added an amendment providing
500. coo for erecting two wings to the

convenient halls for the two houses Of Con-
gress-an arrangement which we trust
will be executed without delay, for the
present hall Of the House of Representa-

RESIDENCES IN THE VICINITY OF
NEW-YORK

The City of New York has, of late years
become SO crowded-the pure air Of the
| country SO thoroughly shut out, or iflet in,
SO speedily vitiated-and the chickering's ol
commercial life so frequent and intense,
that it is almost entolerable even as place
of business, much more so as one Of resi-
dence. In view of these circumstances,
thousands of heads OF families have within
short time formed the resolution of Iocat-
ing their charges in the country. within
such distance, however as would not pre-
clude their doing business in the city. To
meet this demand. large quantities Of land
have been recently thrown open in the
immediate neighborhood Of New York,
and divided into such plots as were most
desirable to purchasers. Numbers Of these
sites have already been taken up, and
hundreds of beautiful and substantial cot
tages and villas erected thereon, which.
in many instances display very marked
perception OF whatever is beautiful aud
effective in architecture. This feeling Of
disgust for residence in the city is be-
ginning to be felt by nearly all who cherish
a desire for occasional repose and seclu
sion; aud the subject Of country resi-
dences is becoming one Of absorbing in-
terest. Nearly every one who has made
up his mind to the permanent establish
ment of business in New York, is either
discussing this matter with himself, OF
taking some active step in the premises.
With many, the principal reason for To-
eating in the country. is conviction that
a city like our own, hedged in as it is with
every pernicious influence, is not the most
proper place in which to bring up a family;
and we must confess to a belief that they
are not far from being right. What won
der is it. then. that SO many who have
such responsibilities resting upon them
should seek to escape the annoyances
inseparable from city, by taking refuge
in the country

THE TURKISH AGENT, whom we ment ion
ed some weeks ago, as about to visit this country,
| to examine the progress of the arts and sciences
among us, arrived in New York, some days ago,
| and proceeded to Washington. The Intelligent
Ger says:
This visiter of the far East to the remote
West is the first subject of the Sublime
Porte who has ever come to the shores of
America in the service of government; !;
and althoug h he comes as simple agent
to view our country, its internal condition,
power, pursuits, productions, institutions,
Sc, and is invested. we believe, with no
diplomatic functions, his visit may lead to
diplomatic relations between the two gov
| ernments, and eventually advantageous
commercial intercourse between the two
countries.
Heis accompanied by three secretaries,
and John P. Brown, esq, secretary of
legation at Constantlnople, and lady, a
daughter of the late Commodore Porter,
and several gentlemen connected with our
nava! service. He seems delighted with
what he has seen of this country and, in
his interview with a gentleman connected
with the Argus, remarked: 'My sovereign
has got hold of one end of the rope, the
American people the other. The great
served that extremes are often brought
together. l hope the ends of the rope
may meet, and surround the world like
the equatorial line.''

his value, and the remainder is to pay their
passage to Liberia, and settle them.
Daniel is a tanner by trade, and also an
engineer. We understand he expects to
go a. the tanning business in Liberia, or
to be engineer in Sugar Mill. Quite a
disposition prevails among the negroes of
New Berne to emigrate. and we should
not wonder if a considerable number leave
for Liberia during the next twelve months.
