ENLARGEMENT OF THE CAPITOL

Senate, having been authorized by resolution of
that body, "to invite plans accompanied by est-
mates for the extension of the Capitol, and to al
low premium Of FIVE hundred dollars for the
plan which may be adopted by the Committees on
Public Buildings of the two Houses of Congress, %

shall provide for the extension of the Cepitol
either by additional wings, to be placed on the
north and south of the present building or by the
erection of separate and distinct building, within
the enclosure TO the east of the building.
The committee do not desire to prescribe any
condition., that may restrain the free exercise OF
architectural taste and judgment, but they would
prefer, that whatever plan may be proposed may
have such reference TO and correspondence with
the present building to preserve the general
symmetry of the entire structure, when complete.
Although but one plan can be adopted, the com
mitee reserve to themselves the right to form such
plan by the adoption of parts of different plans
submitted, should such be found necessary; IN
which event, the committee also reserve to them.

AT the io,D price OF ONE DOLLAR per annum,
I s the cheapest weekly newspaper south Of the
| Potomac, and as cheap as any in the Union.
This paper is made up chiefly from the Daily
Dispatch, consisting of the entertaining and
news matter of that sheet, and carefully selected
light literature and poetry.
HUGH X. PLEAsANTs, Principal Editor.
Ii is designed to make it equal to any Weekly
sheet in the Union for its general interest. In
tone and sentiment, it is Southern-its conductors
are Virginians, and they hope to merit and re-
ceive the encouragement Of their feiiow- citizens.
They enter upon no mere speculation in their en-
terprze, nor are their views and opinions shaped
merely to catch the popular breeze. From edu-
cation, from position, from association, from in
terest. fros1 choice, they Southern men. Their
defence of Southern rights is defence of them
selves and all they hold dear;-that it has been
warm unremitting, and as faS rs their capacity al
lowed, vigorous, no man who has saad their sheet
will deny. To doubt that it will continue to be
so is to presume that the principles and ideas
birth, can be eradicated, at period Of life when
men rarely change their views They, at least,
know it to be impossible.

lished requires that the subscription be paid al
