EXTENSION OF THE CAPITOL.

EXTENSION OF THE CAPITOL.
1t has been stated already that the President has
adopted plan for the Capitol enlargement appointed
a superintendent of the construction, and determined
to Law the corner stone OF The edfice the 9TH OF
July next-a glorious day for glorious deed. The
corner stone of the present Capitol was laid by Gene
raj Washington more than so years ago, and fortunate
is the man upon whom falls the duty OF aging the
foundation oil the structure, which is called for by
vastly increased prosperity population and extent OF
the Union.
have actual knowledge as to the plan said to be
adopted; hut it is surmise to have heen made
by MIR. Young, Of Boston, partly at the Presidents
suggestion, and that provdes for Senate hall on the
north of the present edice, and Representa- ives
hall on The Sou,h-hese edsfices to be separate
from the presen, building, but connected wi i, by
venient covered ways. | suppose too, from what
learn that the dimensions Of the Representatives hall
are suitable Tor the accommodation OF two hundred and
thirty hree members, and more, and probably oil
four times hat number Of spectators. 1t would be
tisactory to know how Tar limited The extent OF the new
hail is to be, according to the plan supposed to he
adopted The edIfice proposed will no doubt, answer
very well lor len years to come, but lDnger unless
indeed it be supposed the Pacific empire is TO branch
of by that time from the Union, and that part or the
whole of tile cotton producing States are to secede and
form separate conederacy.

The new Constitution OF MARYLAND provides that the
Governors salary shalIbe $1,000 or in effect that
none but rich men shall hold the office.
Exchange paper
of the Maryland Governor; but this is certain, that
pitiful income by no means tends to place office
in the hands Of The wealthy. The doors of "small
chores, to use an ugly, but expressive Northern
ism, are the men who profit by meagre rewards
for public service. The State of Maryland could
govern her at ga dollar a day and find them
selves" Whilst the Convention was putting
Executive duties out to the lowest bidder, we
only wonderit did not place them entirely on par
with the simplest manual labour.
