prosperity. At this we sincerely rejoice.
The New Orleans Bulletin says that "the
present condition of the planters of the
South, in pecuniary sense, is infinitely
more favorable than at any time within the
last ten or fifteen years. As general thing,
abundant crops of every description have
rewarded the farmer; and plenty, if not
profusion, of all the necessaries, to say no.
thing of the indispensable luxuries of life,
may be found throughout the length and

A PRETTY WINTER ScExE.-The Boston
Chronicle Of Monday last says: ION Satur-
day We had rain, hail, and snow, all in
glorious confusion, rendering the streets
almost impossible. The temperature was
so low that the rain froze as it fell. Yes
terday morning the sun rose bright and
beautiful, and the landscape was but one
field Of FURNISHED silver. Every blade of
grass, every twig and branch of tree, and
every vine, was coated with ice, which
glistened and sparkled in the rays of the
morning sun like SO many diamonds, the
whole scene to the eye being more like
some visions Of fairy land, than the dull
realities of mother earth, upon whose vege-
table forms Jack frost had been heaping his
frozen pearls. A more beautiful panorama
was never beheld than that presented by
the heights of Brookline and Brighton on
the one side, of Bonneville and Cambridge
on the other, with their noble trees covered
with frost, catching and playing with every
roy of light that shone upon them"

THE FUTURE.-In the language of Daniel

of civil and religious liberty; some proof
Of sincere and ardent desire to promote
every thing which may enlarge the under
standings and improve the hearts Of men,"

The CoNcERr.-Speaking of Mad'lle Ro-
sale Durand, who can be heard nightly at
Iron Hall with the little Aztecs, the Norfolk
News says, we cannot permit the opportu-
nifty to pass without an humble tribute Of
admiration to the lovely songstress, whose
sweet strains stirred the profoundest depths
of our heart. Mad'lle Rosalie Durand, as
far as we are capable of Judging, is the
most gifted vocalist, that has ever appeared
before q Norfolk audience. In compass,
fexibility, expression and sweetness of voice
she is all that our imagination has pictured
of perfect vocalist, and we would rather
listen to one song from her than an entire
programme from even Madames Parodi and
Bishop. "Roberto TOT que aime," &c Comm
thro' the Rye Home, sweet Home" and
the Echo song as sung by her last evening
were gems worthy to be entwined in the
Chaplet that crowns the memory of Malibran
herself, and produced gush of enthusiastic
delight among the fortunate attenders of
the concert"
In addition to Mad'lle Durand, Sig. An
tonic Novelli, lie Petit Ole Bull-Master
Goodall-and Mr.. Goodall are all lending
their talented aid to make up with the AZ
tees one of the very best entertainments
with which an audience has ever been ia
vored at any price.

Institution. The lawmakers forget to i'm
pose penalty for neglect Of the require
ment; the consequence of which is, as
Prof Jewett informs us, many publishers
pay no attention to the law. Not half the
books issued, he says, are received; and as
those sent-doubtless the least valuable
are transmitted at the expense Of the Insti
tuition, they cost, on the whole, more than
they are worth. The entire value of all
received during 1851 is estimated at but
four hundred and fifty dollars.

WASHINGTON:
WEDNESDAY,, JANUARY s, 1853.

Our City-Thc President Elect.
The regular Washington correspondent
of the Philadelphia Pennsylvania says:~
"In looking back over the year, one can
not fail to be struck with the Improvement
that have taken place in Washington. The
city has added over two thousand souls to
its population within short time past and
the probability is that it will go on increas-
ing at . still greater ratio for time to come.
Several Of the principal streets have been
wall graded. The public buildings have
steadily advanced. Among these may be
named the additional wings to the Patent
Office and the two Houses of Congress. At
the railroad station one of the finest depots
in the Union has been erected, while in the
immediate vicinity the large and prosperous
forwarding establishment of Adams Co.,
has been located in a towering and elegant
edifce, with q massive iron front. The
Washington Monument has risen to over 100
feet, and is likely to go up faster in 1853
than it has gone during any previous year
At the splendid buildings of the Smithsoni-
an Institute the grounds are being constant
Iy beautifed. The Navy Yard has enjoyed
a material enlargement. In front of the
Executive Mansion the garden-plot, and
the area across the avenue have undergone
and are undergoing quite marked improve
ments. The shores near the Potomac need
draining very much. They might be rem
dered extremely beautiful, and could be
kept 80 with but very little expense. Surely
it is honorable to to the country to attend
to its capital, especially as it bears the
honored name of the Father of our country.
"Gen. Pierce was always popular in
Washington. No man of his years in the
Senate could draw out q larger concourse of
hearers, when it was known he was going
to speak. His pleasing manners always
commended him to all who had the honor
of his acquaintance; while his determined
adherence to principle rendered him dear to
the members of his party. Such, I doubt
not, will continue to be his well-deserved
popularity at the seat of government"

place good library there also, out Of which

OF course, the School.Ilouse will be more

ought to be the Colleges of the Land from
