SHIP YARD.-We understand that an intelli
gent and enterprising gentleman is now on a visit
to city, for the purpose of considering the pro.
priety of establishing yard, at Rockets, for the
construction of the various kinds of vessels de-
manded for the trade and commerce between this
city and other ports. We hope he may become
favorably impressed with the prospective advan
tages of such enterprise, and we trust that our
citizens may afford him all the encouragement in
their power for the undertaking. Why should we
not have such an establishment at this port p
There is a great and increasing demand, at this
time, for vessels here, well at all the marine
marts of the country. Virginia is furnished as
abundautly with good materials, whether of wood
or metal, for building vessels as any other State
in the Union and location for a commedious
yard, convenient for constructing and launching
vessels, could easily be obtained at Rockets or vi
cinity. We cause why such an establish.
ment should not be located here. Our commerce
is large and rapidly increasing, and the various 9th
er industrial pursuits of our city are extensive
and fourishing. Let US have ahip yard to add to
the business hum with its numerous hammers and
saws. We cannot entertain doubt of the success
of such an enterprise.

that locality has undergone since 'no "oiA VI cen

was commenced. About two years ago, the lot on
which the depot houses and WORKS new stand, was
covered bv jamestown weecs and q few miserable
novels occupied chiefly by incident blacks. TWAS
. ,,.ce If desolation, an eye.sore, unmarked by
.nx evidences of business, thrift useful occups
tim In very brief period, q most agreeable
change has taken place. Now, II 10 of the most
business and enlivening districts in our city. The
old cabins having been torn down, the grounds
have been elevated, lsvelled. and enlarged, depot
houses erected, and the place become one of the
most active commercial msrts of our thriving city
At the time of our visit on Saturday, we counted
there fourteen wagons and drsys employed in
transporting goods to and from the depot To &C.
commodate the large amount of freight coming to
and departing from the city, another large freight
building has just been erected, and large number
OF hands are kept there constantly employed
amidst bags, bales, boxes and goods of almost
every descripion-the whole presenting lively
and cheering scene at spot where SO recently
dizziness and desolstion reigned supreme. The

River and Kanawha CanaD and filling up the de
pot grounds on the northern side thereof, for thu
purpose of extending the railroad tracks across
the stream, more convenient to the city. is rapidly
progressing. Already one track has been extended
and others will soon follow. Here, we understand
it Is designed to erect additional depot buildings
for the accommodation of passengers and freight
This will add greatly to the convenience of both
Passengers can take the cars at the termination o.
Virginia street, and the depot can be approached
from either that street or 14th street, much more
conveniently than the depot can be reached at

WASHINGTON, Dec. II, 1853.
Editors of the Union and american:
You will have seen the vote on the election Of
printer in the Senate 1t discloses combination
Of some disaffected Senators with wings and free
soilers against the Administration. 1 do not sup
pose indeed, that all democrats who voted for BEv
ERLY Tucker are in opposition to the Administra-
ton, but several are undoubtedly. Mr.. NICHOLSON
continues to display in defence of the Administra-
ton the great and various ability by which he has
adorned the columns ofthe Union since his induction
to its editorial chair There is a very able editorial
in the Union of yesterday, Q6th) on the policy Of
the Administration in reference to the "Union at
Baltimore
The Message of General PIERCE has met with a
wide spread appreciation and is eminenty entitled
to it. On whatever topic he touches we find evil
dence of candid expression of his views. Our
foreign relations exhibit a more placid attitude
than was generally supposed. Our Treasury is
overfowing-a large amount Of the national debt
has been extnguished--a recommendation is made
of moderate reduction Of the tari-of an increase
of the Navy adapted to our expanded commerce
and the warlike aspect of European affairs-the
agitation of questions calculated to disturb our
peace is eloquenty deprecated-an indication is
given of his readiness to concur in the appropriation
of lands as heretofore, 10 the construction of the
Pacific Ralroad-but Of an unwiingness to take
that Railroad under the direct care and supervision
of the National Government. This Railroad will
undoubtedly be built and be built with no other
Old +ben thu indicated kv fhe President In short
the Message is one of the abest and best that has
been transmitted, whatever differences of opinion
may exist on some points
The Naval Committee has already promptly res
ponted to the call Of Mr.. DoBBIY Secretary of the
Navy, for six steam frigates, and recommended an
appropriation of three millions for carrying it into
effect
The news from Europe is most decidedly warlike.
1t is stated that the Emperor of Russia has declared
the pending questions must be determined by war
that France and England have made an alliance to
maintain the integrity of the Turkish empire, and
the London Times of late date declares that the
activity of the Turks along the Danube indicates
that the campaign has but begun. The next arrival
will probably bring news of great interest
The Administration is receiving powerful and
earnest support from many quarters. And it is
necessary that all its friends should rally to rescue
it from the numerous misrepresentation which the
opposition press and the opposition in Congress
have made and will make The ability and zeal
with which your paper sustains it are conspicuous,
although no more than was reasonably expected.
