CETY A Est AIR
THE STATE Rail-,

The State ball at the Theatre, Monday night,
was one of the most brilliant affairs of the kind
ever known in Virginia. The Theatre was admit
rably prepared, smooth floor being laid over the
whole pit and the stage, and painted with proper
figures to regulate the colillions We cannot
we'll reckon the number of the company. 1t was
just large enough to occupy the floor without
crowdng, whilst many ladies occupied the boxes
as spectators. The display of beauty of every
style, was delightful to behold. Great credit is
due to the committee of Managers for the excel
lent order which was preserved The coup d'nl
presented to the eye of one looking down from the
second gallery upon the dancers, was exceedingly
striking. A bounful and elegant supper was
laid in an apartment beneath the stage. All in all,
the occasion seemed to be one of universal en-
joyment and worthy of the national anniversary it
was designed to commemorate

badly suffer net loss of two members in the
Thirty third Congress Qhe Congress after the
nexD which will be- precisely the loss OF Virgil
MIA alone This loss, however, is exclusive of the
two members gained to the North by the admis-
sion of California. Whether that gain will be an
enduring one is yet to be determined; for, not
withstandng the restriction in the present const-
tuition of California, it is confidently asserted by
some that slavery will hereafter be legalized in
that State. Considering the superior influx Of
foreign population into the free States, the re-
lative standing of the Southern States is quite
encouraging, though it is to be observed that they
profit more than the former by the representation
of fractions. 1t will not surprise us, if the actu
al census of California reduce its population con-
siderably below the number of 100000 estimated
in the table below.

TO each State which that mount OF population will
give; the fractions left 10 each State. &c.

LAY OF THE WOUNDED HEART.

BY FRANcfsc. wooDwoRTH.
On, chide me not for weeping
She's still The same to me,
Though she has long been sleeping
Beneath the wiIow-tree;
That name so lightly spoken,
Falls sadly on my ear
Deem not that death hath broken
A spell so strong, so dear.
Can the cold grave eer smother
The hearts first warmast flannel
That heart enshrine another,
And sill love on the name7
Say not she early persisted,
AS flowers in autumn die;
Say not the form cherished
Dwells where her ashes lie.
Moot when tears are flowing,
AS tears are flowing now,
And lite's chill winds are blowing
Fiercely upon my brow,
That loved one who before me,
Flew 10 her native sky,
Is bending tondly DER me,
AS in bright years gone by.
How thin the curtain hiding
The spirit world from me.
How oft like shadows gliding,
That cherished form see!
My God, thank Thee ever,
That friends SO fond and true
Not e 'en the grave can sever,
Or shroud from human view.
Now comes she near and nearer!
Welcome my spirit bride.
Methinks she should be dearer
Than cen before she died;
What though she has been sleeping
Long meath the willow tree,
Yet chide me not for weeping
She's still the same to me.
